SStrij. THE HALF WASN'T TOLD. Our last week’s reference to the gale on the west coast didn't reveal half the ter¬ rors of that great calamity. As reports have come in from the various points along the coast, it has developed tha t the August gale on this side would fail to compare with that which swept the Ala¬ bama and Mississippi coast, and a por¬ tion of Florida and Louisiana, last week. It is now estimated that some 3,000 per¬ sons perished in the storm, drowned and killed by Hying timbers and falling houses. The town of Caminidaville, situated on Chenierf island, was swept from the face the globe, and less than 25 houses left of 1,200, more than 1,000 of the in habitants being drowned or killed. About 350 vessles are reported as wrecked, and more than 200 sailors lost at different p'oints on the coast. The Associated Press says: “The storm was, beyond all doubt, not only the worst that has ever been experienced in the south, but it lias nevej,* any where been equaled in its struction of property and its destruction of human life by any storm confined to as limited an area.” IT. C. Passmore, of Kentucky, who killed Richard Raxtox on Oct. 25, 1887, was acquitted in Harrodsburg last Sat¬ urday afterpassingthrough fifteen con rts. The case has cost the state more than #30,000, and the man seems to have es¬ caped the just penalty of his crime from public sympathy aroused by his persist¬ ent fight for liberty. The People's Party paper copies two editorial attacks on the Democratic ad¬ ministration frbm the Atlanta Constitu¬ tion. “Birds of a feather," etc.—Atlanta Journal. Why, that’s nothing: the people’s party paper here sometimes fills up from the Constitution. It is so much easier to use the scissors than the pen, and then the matter is much better than anything can be turned out by the ordinary country editor; and then it is calculated 'to ha ve more weight when duly credited to a reputed democratic journal. Mr. R. Summers II ay, until the last few days a director in the Richmond Termi¬ nal Company, and now the president of the New'York & Northern and St. Pau & Duluth railroads has been appointed co-receiver of the Central Railroad and Banking Company of Georgia to assist receiver Comer. Mr. Hay is a railroad man of wide ex¬ perience, and it is ^asserted that his ap¬ pointment insures the best possible man¬ agement of the Central of Georgia. His appointment is very acceptable to Mr. Comer. The first of the three races between the American yacht Vigilant and the English cm ter Valkarie for America’s cup was sailed at New York last Saturday, re¬ sulting in a victory for the Vigilant, which came out about seven minutes ahead in 30-miles race. The second race was run Monday, when the Vigilant came out ahead again, this tune more than 12 minutes. The Valkarie was brought over from England by her owner, Lord Dunhaven, at an expense of about $5,000 to make the contest, and her movements around New York harbor had got the American champion to feeling a little shaky; but the result is restoring confidence, and everybody expects to see “Jobny Bull” go back as he came. A FALSE ALARM. Recently it has been telegraphed from Washington that Mr. Springer has sud denly discovered that the passage of the Voorhees or Wilson bill would revive the free coinage act of 1837. We do not know whether or not Mr. Springer claims to have made such a dis¬ covery but if he does he is very badly mis¬ taken. She act of 1873 not only dropped the silyer dollar which was restored by the Bland-Ailison act of 1878, but itcontain ed the following provision: “Section 21. That any owner of silver bullion may deposit the same at dollars any mint to be formed into bars or into of the weight of 420 grains (trade dollars) and no deposit of silver for other coin shall be received .” The words in italics have never been repealed. It is very clear, therefore, that free coinage of silver would not be restor¬ ed by the passage of the Voorhees or the Wilson bill. The trade dollar was originally a legal tender to the amount of fivedollars. The act of July, 1876, merely took away its legal tender quality. It did not repeal the provision of section 21 of the act of 1873 that “no deposit of silver for other coinage shall be received .”—Atlanta Jollmal. LITTLE MARY ARDELIA ROGERS. Mary Ardelia Rogers, aged two years, eight months and twenty days, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Rogers, of Brag, Ga., passed from earth to heaven Friday, Oct. (»th, about 7:30 o’clock a. m. The funeral exercise took place at Corinth church, and was conducted by the Rev. Mr. Wilkerson, at 5 p. m. same day. Little Mary was taken sick with fever just a week before her death. Dr. J. C. May attended her, and after he had ex¬ hausted all his skill the grim monster, Death, came and took her from her lov¬ ing family—mother, father, sisters and brothers—t o H imself. She was a bright and intelligent child, and acted as one her superior in years. 8he was a great comfort and joy to her parents, and the pride of her family; but God, in his mysterious providence has seen lit to take her from their loving kindness to heaven. May God protect and comfort the be¬ reaved family, and may they exclaim as David did, “She cannot come tousagain, but wo can go to her.” We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the family, and especially to the bereaved mother. One more home made sad and desolate (Vue By the grim and mighty though monster, short, Dgatb! is made. uioj-e new grave, hearth.

A negro boy was given a sentence of fifty dollars, and five or six months in the chaingang, for making a false report of yellow fever, by Mayor Knight, ot IVay cross. Watt and Jeff Irby, of Cassville, have been arrested and jailed oiutlie charge of murdering an old negro named Simon Foster, robbing his body and throwing it in a well, last spring. The revenue cutter Boutwell has been sent out to patrol the coast, to intercept Brunswick refugees who are reported as making their way northward in small crafts, and rendezvousing on the small islands between Savannah and Bruns¬ wick. They will all bo taken up and sent to the government quarantine station on Blackboard’s Island. Cliff Ness, the 15-year-old son of one of the wealthiest and most widely known citizens of Atlanta, ran away from home some three months. He was stealing his way back Sunday on a freight train when he fell between the cars and was so badly mangled that he died. His father went to him on a special train, but did not reach the place until after his sou’s death. The beauty, modesty and grace of Hen¬ ry county lassies has become almost pro¬ verbial, and now below we bive an ex¬ ample of what one of them can do in the way of work when it becomes necessary. We are informed by a reliable gentleman that on last Thursday Miss Josie Shaw, of Wynn’s Mill, picked 449 pounds of cotton, a record that can be equalled by but few of the masculine sex of this county. m MILLIINERY.
