We print on the first page of this
evening’s Herald a memorial pre
pared by General Henry Morgan and
adopted by the Supreme Court of
Georgia at Atlanta, upon the life and
character of the late Hon. Louis Arn-
heim. Mr. Arnheim represented
Dougherty county in the Legislature
for two consecutive terms prior to his
death, and the beautiful tribute that
has been paid him by the gifted Gen.
Morgan will be read with interest and
preserved by the friends and admirers
of Mr. Arnheim.
Our Worth county correspondent,
whose interesting letter is printed
elsewhere In the Herald, puts a more
hopeful and encouraging aspect upon
the political situation In that county
than it has worn since the opening of
the present campaign. The thing for
the Democrats of Worth to do, now
that they have purged their Executive
Committee of all Third Partyltes, is to
hold a primary on the 80th of July
and elect delegates to the Congres
sional convention in compliance with
the recommendation of, the Distriot
Executive Committee, and the dele
gates thus elected will be seated.

From Thursday’* KVENlNfl IIkhai.d.
The readers of the Herat-I "will re- yCsteftlay oh their Western'trip,
member a letter that wad published in
Tuesday’s Herald as coming from
Hon. O. B. Stevens.
In the prcfatqry comments upon the
letter ft was stated that the original
was in our hands. And so it is. The
Herald does not deal in fakes nor
does it publish bucket letters or com-
uiunicntlousofatiy kind from unknown
writers or correspondents.
The letter which we published from
Mr. Stevens on Tuesday was written
to a prominent and reliable farmer of
tin adjoining county. The name of
the gentleman to whom the letter was
addressed was omitted I11 the publica
tion, for reasons which will be appar
ent to everybody, but the letter was
none the less genuine,
But il seems that candidate Stevens
doesn't like to stand In the light in
which this letter puts him, and lie
wants to get rid of it. This morning
tile editor of the Hkiiald received the
following telegram from him :
Tmi.MASVit.LE, Ga,, July 14, 1882.
To II. M. Meluto»lii
Med me morning train with origi
nal letter you published twelfth, >
U. B. Stevens.
he editor of flic Herald met Mr.
Stevens as requested, and hail tlte
“original letter” ill his pocket.
“I would like to see l lull'Met tor,” said
Mr. Stevens,
“Do you deny having written it?”
we asked.
1 don't know whether 1 do or not;
let me see it anil then I’ll tell you
whether I wrote it or not,”
We declined to show him the letter
unless He first denied having written
it, telling him that we didn’t propose
to show him the letter merely to grati
fy his curiosity as to which of his
would-be constituents hud given him
away. He. then waived all that and
asked to see the signature to the letter.
We Bliowed him this, and then lie said
lie didn’t write it.
“Then give me yoiirdeninl in writ
ing, and lam ready to show up and
have you do the same.”
“All right.”
“All aboard!” called out the conduc
tor of tlie Columbus Southern train, on
which 51 r. Stevens was going home.
“Send me your written denial by
mall,” said the editor, as lie shook
hands with tile departing candidate
for Congress.
“All right, hut I’d like to have yoh
slute in your tbls'evgtiihg’s paper that
I deny having written that letter.”
Thus ended the brief interview.
Wo have given Mr. Stevens the ben
efit of Ills deninl. 5[eantlme. we hold
tlie “original letter,” written on two
pages of O. B. Stevens’s printed letter
heads, and rig tied ns if by that gentle
man himself, “O. B. Stevens.”
Now, If Mr. Stevens didn't write that
letter somebody over at Dawson has
been taking great liberty with his
name, and ills explanation of the mat
ter will he awaited by tlie IIerald and
tlie public with, interest.

now as to the safety of the State’s
money under the bond which Treas

Tlie Republicans in tlie State of
Georgia nre by no means discouraged
by their past record, but are, It seems
on tlie wur path again tills year. The
State Republican convention convenes
in Atlanta on the 10th of August, and
nt'tlmt time, in spite of the knowledge
of slife defeat, they will probably put.
out-a tjtnte ticket. But this Is not-all.
Col. Buck, the Republican leader, de'
dares that the Republicans will put
out candidates for Congress in every
distriot iii the State. It is hard to, tell
what encouragement they have re
ceived. They must think that the
Third Party is going to split the solid
Democracy of tlie State. The elec
thins will tell how bail their delusion
really is. .

To the Editor of the Herald.—-
Our Couiln Tobe has been, for sev
eral days past, rummaging around in
Decatur county. Hit headlight seems
to be somewhat cracked, and he has to
take the by-paths and wiregrass trails
through the piny woods for fear be
may, unconsciously, run against a
Democratic bomb whizzing along the
pnblle highway. The last heard of
him, after a Democratic bombardment
the other day, he was moving off in
the direction of Flint river swamp.
A Di.putc Between Two Darkle* Bad*

The young ladies who are prepar
ing to give an exhibition broom drill
at Willingham’s Hall, in connection
with the Albany Guards’ entertain
ment on the evening of next Wednes
day, the 20th inst., have gone heart
and soul into the work of drilling, and
meet every afternoon at Willingham’s
Hall, where they are instructed in the
“broom taotics” by Sergeant A. F.
Coles, of the Guards, who is captain of
the “bevy.”
“Bevy” is the word used to desig
nate the organization, for the mem
bers won’t allow themselves to he
oalled by any name that is ever ap
plied to members of the other sex.
Here are the names of the “bevy,” as
furnished us by one of them, and a
glance at their names will be sufficient
to show the readers of the Herald
that they are among Albany’* bright
est, most beautiful and accomplished
daughters.
They are Misses Fonda Gilbert, Dita
Bostick, Julia Clay Cox, Louise Cox,
Bessie Gilbert, Mamie Hllaman, Rosa
Meriwether, Mary Muse, .Maud Fitts,
Jennie Price, Elia Pope, Alatia West-
brood, Addle Armstrong,. Eva Lou
Westbrook, Maria Eppes and Eva
Price.
Now, the mention of these nan
will prove amply sufficient, without
further recommendation, to bring out
a large crowd, for the sight will bo
one of the prettiest ever vritnessed In
Albany*
The other features of the entertain'
ment will also be interesting and at
tractive, and the Guards ought |to he
greeted by a crowded house.
Tlie steamer City of Albany, which
is anchored at the foot of Broad street,
was tlie scene Of a difficulty, about 8
o'clock Wednesday, whloh resulted
in a Negro being badly, though not
seriously shot.
Henry Taylor and George Johnson
are hands on the steamer. It seems
that during the last trip a colored pas
senger failed to take away his pistol
when he left the boat at some point
down the river, and this morning
Johnson and Taylor got into a dispute
about who should keep it until it could
be returned to its rightful owner.
Taylor had the pistol, and Johnson
caught up a couple of rocks and started
after him. Taylor retreated, but
finally turned and fired. The ball
struck just above the left nipple, and,
striking the bone, glanced upward and
lodged under the skin of the throat.
The wounded man wasn’t hurt bad
enough to prevent him from walking
up town, where he had his injuries at
tended to by Dr. Davis,
Those who saw the difficulty say
Taylor was justifiable in doing the
deed, but Johnson swore out a warrant
for his arrest, and he was brought up
before Magistrate Robert for commit
ment trial. The wounded Negro was
too sick, however, to attend court, so
Taylor was released on a $260 bond,
whloh be readily gave.
