Mercer return to town Tuesday,
being the first that had been seen
of him in this section since lie went
to see the hanging of the five men
at Mt. Vernon two weeks ago. The
question, had begun to spring up
as to whether or not Ben had fallen
into the hands of the bloodthirsty
officials in that section, while a
certain young lady had began to
tear that and attachment had been
served—not severed—on him.

Mrs. G. W, Williams went down
to Savannah Tuesday, and was fol¬
lowed by her sister, Miss Jennie
Roach, yesterday, the family the gath¬
ering tn be present at perform¬
ance of a very dangerous surgical
operation which their mother suf¬
fers today at the hands of Drs.
Nunn ami Boyd. The patient has
been in Savannah several weeks
under the care of the physician,
undergoing treatment with a view
of building up her constitution and
preparing her for the operation;
but she is very frail, and the fami¬
ly are of course suffering great
anxiety as to the final result.
BEFORE MAYOR LEE.
The clerks and callers in the
store of Mr. W. C. Parker were re¬
galed this morning by a nice little
“breeze” stirred up by Mr. Dean
Newman, representing Lippman
Bros., and Mr. J. R. Flagg, repre
senting the drug house of Boykin,
Carmer & Co., of Baltimore. It
appears that Mr. Newman had in¬
dulged some uncomplimentary re¬
marks concerning Mr. Flagg’s
house, and upon the two gentlemen
meeting( for the first tim° in their
lives) in Mr. Parker’s store, Mr.
Flagg called up the subject. Mr.
Newman appears to have attempt¬
ed to make some explanation
which Mr Flagg declined to ac¬
cept, applying some epithets to Mr.
Newman which he resented in rath¬
er vigorous language and a proposi¬
tion to settle the matter “according
to the code,”
The case was reported to Mar¬
shall Kendrick, and he invited the
belligerent gentlemen to appear be¬
fore Col. Lee; who, after lis¬
tening to the testimony, concluded
to let the case Mr. go Newman, by imposing a fine
of $3 upon as tax on
the profanity indulged in upon the
occasion. The fine was promptly
paid, with the remark that $3 was
very cheap for the luxury enjoyed
