The court house well is 410 feet

Mr. S W. Gunnison is preparing
for an extensive trade this season. He
has now in store a very large and at
tractive stock of hardware, crockery,
honse-fnrnishing goods, etc., and this
is being added to nearly every day.
Mr. Gunnison is well known to the
people of Albany and snrronndicg
country, and occupies a high position
in their confidence and esteem. We
take pleasure in referring our readers
to his advertisement in this morning’s
News and Advertiser, and bespeak
for him a liberal patronage.
Col. R. G. Fleming, Superintendent
of the Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway, was in the city Thursday,
looking after the interests of his road.
The News and Advertiser asked him
when the road would begin work on
its neiv depot in this city. His reply
was that he could not say. “This
much I can tell you, however,” added
the Captain, seeing that we were a lit
tle disappointed at not getting a more
definite answer to our question, “the
work will begin us soon as we can get
to it. We are making so many im
provements on our road that it will
require a little time to put them
through. We will get up to the Al
bany depot after a while, mid when
we do we will put op such a building
as Albany will he proud of.”

It is a good tiling for the labor of

demoralizing influence among the
South Georgia darkies. With the
good cotton crops they can forget

Two weeks ago last Thursday Chilles
Walker, son of Mr. George Walker, of
Wa'kcr Station, this county, had a dif
ficulty with a colored man named Dick
Jackson, who was employed on Mr.
Walker’s place. The colored man, it
seems, had been us inti one of Mr.
Walker’s wagons, and the coupling
pole got broken while in Lis charge.
When youBg Walker acco-ted the ne
gro about breaking the wagon, the
latter made some evasive and unsatis
factory answer. This provoked a quar
rel, which finally led to blows—young
Walker taking up a piece of the coup
ling pole ard striking the negro two
licks over the head with it. The
negro was carried borne, and on last
Friday night he died. Coroner Wil
burn was notified, and held an inquest
at which Dr. Hilsman made a post
mortem examination. The verdict of
the jury declared that Dick Jackson
came to his death from two blows on
the head with a piece of coupling pole
in the hands of Chilles Walker." The
Coroner issued a warrant for Mr.
Walker, on Satnn'ay night, bnt since
that time the young man has not been
seen. The unfortunate affair is very
much regrctle.d by the many friends ol
Mr. George Walker, who is one of the
best melt in Dougherty county, and is
deeply distressed over the occurrence.
ceived on the 14th inst. from Mr. R.
M. Harp, of Worth county. The hale
was taken to the new warehouse of
Mr. Cbesley A. Williams, and was sold
to Alford & Clements for fifteen cents
per pound. Sumner is a growing town
on the Brunswick and Albany tail-
road, and is twenty-five miles from Al
bany,
Mr. Williams, who has the credit of
building the.first warehouse on the
line between Alapaha and Albany, was
in Hawkinsville list week, and says
the corn crop of that section is as good
as conld be desired thongh the cotton
is rusting some. He is prond of Sum
ner, and says the town received this
season eighty thousand pounds
wool. Mr. Harp, who carried the
first hale of cotton to the new ware
house, lives within fourteen miles of
Albany, bnt said he was in favor of
building up a home market, and ex
pected to carry to Sumner the entire
crop of 'orty or fifty bales. The citi
zens of Worth are opposed to paying
toll over the river bridge at Albany.
The above is from the Hawkinsville
Dispatch, a paper that has ever held
itself in readiness lo publish anything
disparaging of Albany as a cotton or
wool market. The News and Adver
tiser congratulates Sumner on its rap
id development, and hopes soon to see a
city spring up to be called by that
name. But the allusion to paying toll
on cotton to Albany is untrue, as an
advertisement to be found in another
column, signed by the different ware
houses in the city notifies the citizens
of Worth and the other side of the
river that cotton will be passed over
the bridge free of loll. Now, will our
friend Woods exercise that journalist
ic nimblencss for which he is famons
in a inouncing this fact. He ought to
give it publicity as quicK as he would
publish a disparaging article. Come to

“Wliat Women Should Know.”
A Woman’s Book About Women. By
Mrs. E B Duffev, Fireside Pub-
1 siting Company, Philadelphia. Sold
Only by Subscription.
This uniquj publication is the be s
book of its character that we have ever
seen. It will, indeed, fill a “long-felt
want’’ in every family library into
which it is carried. It is a good
guide-book for mothers, and is full o'f
just such information as should be
conveyed to every girl before she ar
rives at that critical age of develop
ment when she is liable, through igno
rance, to commit Mich sins and make
such mistakes as will render her thiser
able for the remainder of her life.
Mothers are too apt to ncglcet the
important matter of placing all neces.
sary information within the reach of
their daughter 'an 1 prepare them to
pass through the critical stage inter
vening girlhood and womanhood.
Such negledt is due, for the most part,
to a false modesty, which Mrs. Dufiey
denounces in the very strongest
terms.
The moral tone of this book is of the
very bighesljpns-iblc character. Deli,
cate subjects are discussed, but in such
terms as any woman of refinement can
employ in communicating with anoth
er. The lessons taught are wholesome
and timely, and both mother and
daughter will find them profitable.
After haviugcnrefully examined the
work, we can most heartily commend it
to the head of every family.
Jack Outlaw, a well-known colored
man of the city, cime into this office
Monday to give us the particulars of
a visit the colored people had received
on Sunday from Rev. Willis Warren,
the noted colored preacher and ruler
among his race. Iu consequence of
the removal of many of his flock to
Albany and to the immediate neigh
borhood of the town, the old gentle
man has fonnd it necessary to estab
lish a churc’t here, to which end he
has purchased a lot and will soon
of |.commence the erection of a church
edifice thereon. This information
Jack desired put in the paper, and
asked onr charges. He was delight
ed when informed that while the pat
ronage we receive from the colored
folks is quite small, still it is
ways a pleasure for its to give publici
ty to anything tending to elevate
them or in any way to improve their
condition mentally or morally.
So much for Jack’s item; but while
we are on the subject of the Sev.
Willis Warren it may not be uninter
esting to our readers to know some
thing of this remarkable personage,
who, among the colored people in the
snrrounding conntry, wields a power
as mighty as any potentate that ever
ruled. He is their preacher, their
doctor, their counsellor, their ruler.
His word is law with them, a nd
obeyed to the letter. He preaches
them gospel sermons and rounds them
off with a lecture as to how they
sho uld conduct themselves. All praise
be to this ruling spirit that his influ.
cnee is for good. He has nothing ti
do with politics, and discourages it as
much as possible among his people.
The planters are frequently render
6d tinder obligations to him for kindly
intervention among unrnly laborers,
and it is said that often when a man
becomes crooked or lazy old man
Willis is sent for and the culprit
brought before him. If found guilty
sentence of twenty or thirty lashes is
prescribed, which is always adminia-
tered by the reverend Willis himself.
He is a missionary Baptist, hut rnns
a sort of independent schedule. He
has in his circuit three' churches,
Shepherd, Palmyraand Jordan Grove,
and these form an ascociation which,
while it has a more euphonious name,
is known among the colored folks only
as “Willis Warren’s Association.”
this association there are 2,500
souls. He elects and ordains .his own
ministeis, and has a preaching force
of some sixty to seventy-five. He
rules it all through. There is entire
submission to his role, and rebellion is
never dreamed of. He makes them
pay their tithes, and in this respect
there is never any delay. He
is also their doctor, as we have said.
In cases or sickness he is sent for, and
if the case is nothing more than the
usual malarial fever he will prescribe,
prepare and furnish the medicine him
self. It is said his drug bill amounts
to .between three and .four hnndred
dollars per year.
Besides his ministerial and escula-
pian duties the reverend Willis

A ITInil’s Greatness.
A man’s greatness lies not in
wealth and station, as the vulgar be
lieve, nor yet in his intellectml ca
pacity, which is often associeted with
the meanest moral character, the most
abject servility to those in high places,
and arrogance to the poor and lowly;
but imau s true greitness lies in the
consciousness of an honest purpose in
life, founded on a just estimate of I
himself and everything else, on fre
quent self-examination, and a steady
obedience to the rule which he knows
to be right, without troubling himself I

Thire was a slight decline in the cotton quo
tations yesterday. As w»9predicted in these
columns last week the decline came with the
expiration oi the time in which purchases
could be applied on August contracts. Thq
decline has not been as great as was general
ly anticipated,, however, and may not be
maintained many days, as tbe demand is still
good. We quote:

Potasb as a Drink.
It is very strange what a child can
see in a box of potash to make him
crave it as a drink when it has water
in it, or as food when it is dry, yet
nearly every paper we pick np con
tains an account of a child’s having
made away with potash. We have
not chronicled them, but here In Al
bany the doctors tell ns that it is of
weekly occurrence that they are call
ed to see children who have indulged
in potash. A little colored girl par
took of some yesterday, and unless a
miracle is performed she will die.

often affects the sufferer with

sleeplessness, a tired feeling
