The postofflee in its new quarters is as “snug as a bug in a rug.” The only ob¬ jection to the move is that some of the patrons haven’t yet become accustomed to the new location, and many a man lias gone to tbe old stand during the past two or three days without remem¬ bering that it had been changed.

From Mr. Watson, who was in town Monday evening, we learn of the sad death of Mrs. Zelpliia Lanier, wife of our friend A. A. Lanier, of Josh, which oc¬ curred at 9 o'clock that morning from the effects of a rattlesnake bite.

For Whipping A Negro. Messrs. J. M. Jenkins and Walter and Clifford Strickland, of the 48th district, were tried before Judge Rountree yester¬ day morning, Mr. Jenkins on the charge of unmercifully whipping Mitchell Lyons, colored, and the Stricklands for being ac¬ cessories in the crime. The first mention¬ ed was put under bond of $200, and the two latter $150, for their appearance at the fall term of court. Mr. Jenkins acknowledged using a horse¬ whip upon the negro mentioned, one day last week, but thought he was justifiable. The testimony in regard to the boys’ complicity in the act, proved nothing more than that, learning that Mr. Jenk¬ ins “had it in” for old Mitch, they quit their work nearby and went to look on while the flogging was being admnistered. The trouble grew out of a report the darkey.is saM to have set afloat so time ago that Mr. Jenkins had killed of his hogs. Hearing this report Jenkins was righteously indignant, and swore vengeance upon his maligner. Sat¬ urday the negro came past where Mr. Jenkins and the two young men men¬ tioned were together, when Mr. Jenkins took his wagon whip and went to get satisfaction. He stopped the negro iu the road and without giving him time to alight from his buggy proceeded to make it hot for him. When he felt avenged, the negro was let to pass, and Mr. Jenk¬ ins went about his business until the con¬ stable served him with an invitation come to town. Mr. Jenkins talked with the Times re¬ porter yesterday, and says that in: feels justified in what he did, and docs not lie lieve that the efforts ot the colored man’s henchmen will cause him nulch trouble. He says the negro’s populist friends ufe urging him forward more democrat) for political thou ef¬ fect (Mr. Jenkins being a It from a sense of injured innocence. the ten¬ was certainly nauseating to notice his white der care with which one of friends helped the negro to exhibit his bruised back to the court. It brought a sickly smile to the whole crowd as the white mau stood holding up the 'drop leaf” to the darkey’s shirt for thecourtto couut the stripes on his back. The “Pops” Didn’t Pop. There cutne very near being a big pop¬ ulist rally here last Monday. All that was lacking was for them to have found it cut and to have been here. There were a couple #f big gnus here, but as there was nobody to hear theeanonading, only one was fired off, and it only carried u blank cartridge with half a load of pow¬ der. Tie orators were Messrs. W. R. Kemp and .las. Barrett; tin* former a candidate for comptroller general, and theln tier for commissioner of agriculture. Counting speakers, managers and all, there were twenty six in the court house at twelve o'clock, when Mr. Kemp fired off his lit¬ tle air gun. Of this number nineteen were populists (or claimed to be), five were democrats, and two were negroes. Mr. Bar-rett goes • loaded forbear’’ only, ami declined to waste a cap onthecrowd. The reason for the slim attendance is that when these perambulating states¬ men wrote the third party managers here last Friday that they were heading this way, the said t. p. in’s, wrote post¬ haste to turn back (don’t come this way; we’ve got enough of it!); and they ex¬ pected their modest request to be com¬ plied with, but it wasn’t for some reason. Don’t tell anybody we’ve found it out, but we have, all the same, that they get lonesome when they try to have a rally all by themselves. They wait till the democrats attract a crowd, and then go, join in, wave their hats, holler, and take on, and imagine that the enthusi¬ asm is all theirs; but, oh, my! They’re not in it. This is all right; we’re glad to have them join with us and be sociable. Even an occasional friendly set-to helps our town and makes taxes lighter. The populists ought to be good friends of the the democrats, for everything they get in way of honest legislation comes from the democratic party, and they will get back in it when they get their eyes open aguiu.

Interesting Letter From Nellwood • Editor Times: Do not think I have gone home to Scotland; I am still here and on deck, and liable to stay here longer than I expect ed. Your town is certainly putting on a bold front. Your merchants are awak¬ ening. Contractor McKenzie’s advent has done more for Statesboro than any¬ thing that has happened since court was held under the old walnut tree. The new court house is the most imposing inland structure that I have seen in some time; the workmanship is grand, the joints are split perfectly and the arch work will pass the most minute inspection. The ar¬ rangement for haudling material shows sound judgment. In all departments work progresses nicely; It ih certainly a ease of no contention among the work¬ men, but rntlier that noble emulation of who can best work and best agree. Having changed my avocation I cannot furnish anything interesting, but glad to notice that while the thermometer is waltzing among the nineties our kind neighbors are good epough to flood our desk with invitations to ice-cream parties. They are gratefully received, and give us a glimpse of the north west passage with the arctic circle to keep us cool. An oc¬ casion of this kind happened at the pala¬ tial home of Geo. W. Lee on the 8th inst. The hostess did the houors in grand style, leaving nothing undone whereby her guests would get the condensed es¬ sence of hospitality. About 25 young ladies were present, and being an old bachelor cannot enter into detail. Our Mr. Campbell and Mr. Evans came home leaving some remembrances behind that cannot very well be effaced or blotted out of their memory in some time to come, but such is life. As the season is drawing to a close, one or two more such gatherings might make our ordinary a dollars richer. I cannot say anything about the crops. A few growlers come around lamenting the low price of cotton, but it is so in all branches, eyen the most enterprising tur¬ pentine firms find it hard to realize from shipments made. Mr. Editor, come around and see us and test tbe hospitality of a turpentine farm. We are happily constituted. The smell of the spirits gives everything a U«:iHhy t one, and t he old mules .feel. the soothing effects.

If any one wishes to obtain a point on raising forage for stock, visit an experi¬ mental 7-acre lot close by this still and they will see how the old humdrum Btyle of farming can be improved. It is not necessary to enter into detail, but make a visit; it will certainly pay you three tons to the acre. John Ross. Nellwood, Ga., Sept. 9th 1894. Pineora People Kicking. The people of Pineora have a grievance against the Macon and Dublin railroad, arrangements to extend which into Sa¬ vannah from Dublin arenow being made. “We have recently received informa¬ tion,” said a resident of Pineora yester¬ day, “that the contemplated line of the Macon and Dublin railroad has been changed, and that instead of crossing the Central railroad through our town it is intended to cross at Eden, about eight miles nearer to the city. “When the Pineora township was laid out it was with a view of having this rail¬ road pass through it. The town has been cut out to fit the right-of-way which the projectors of the road contemplated using, ft was believed to be the best and most advantageous place atwbich tbe crossing could be made. Although the projected right-of-way would run through the yards of several of the inhabitants and cause some of them to lose their houses, they have not made any protest, as they be¬ lieved tin road would greatly benefit and . ... ... “ItU th„l are working Irk near Eden for the purpose of “batplL. g out the right-of-way through This, too, in spite o! tbe fact that twenty Irbies of tbe track has bees beilt toward the 0„ecch«, jh.t the other side of . T) Iiueora. . Under , T , fhaaa these urcum stances the people of I ineora feel very much aggrieved that such a change should be made. It is still their hope, however, that in the end the right-of-wnv the through Pineora will be found most advantageous and made use of.” As was stated in the Morning News a (Jay Qr fwo aRn> the preU minary survey and ^j,j 8 new ]j De has been begun, there are now two surveying parties working on it. one from Dubliu toward Savannah, and the other is working from we n under way within News.

A Week Among Our National Law¬ makers—Matters of Interest. Senator Faulkner, of West Virginia, chairman of the democratic Congression¬ al campaign committee, who is almost constantly at the committee headquar¬ ters, smiles significantly every time his attention is called to a new version of the dissention which the republican news¬ paper correspondents profess to have discovered in the committee. He says that those for whose benefit the commit¬ tee exists have the beet of reasons for knowing that there is no dissention, and that it will be beneficial rather than oth¬ erwise to the democratic party if those correspondents can convince the republi¬ can managers that the committee is not in a condition to render effective service to the democratic candidates. As a mat¬ ter of fact, ail of these dissention fairy tales are based upon a misapprehension of the duties of the committee. With the exception of the campaign Text Book, which is prepared by the committee, and which is not for general distribution but for speakers and editors, the committee does not decide what sort of documents are to be Bent into Congressional dis¬ tricts. It merely sends what is asked lor by the candidate or those authorized to speak for him. So it is simply impossi¬ ble that members of the committee should dispute over what documents shall be sent out. The committee is filling all the orders sent to it, and will continue to do so. Senator Faulkner says the informa¬ tion he is receiving from all over the country is daily adding to his confidence that the democrats will retain control of the House, and he thinks that the great¬ er the improvement in business, now be¬ coming apparent in all sections, the greater the democratic majority will be, as the only thing that ever made the is¬ sue doubtful was the business depression and tbe disposition of many voters to bold tbe party in power responsible for the hard times. Representative John T. Dunn, of Nsw Jersey, has some very strong ideas on political economy, and they are thor¬ oughly practical, as is the man. Speak¬ ing of the effect of the republican policy upon farmers, he said: “If there is any class of people under the sun who ought to vote the democratic ticket it is the TGiTS ? 80 bm v “'-" w . h " 0 Tfoeis that is worth over $50 per acreibp farm¬ ing purposes. I happen to own the old Ijfoty homestead, on the outskirts of Elizabeth, on which the celebrated Ben wafi boni _ It contain8 e »ghty-fonr acres, and in 1860 was held at $25,000. I am now negotiating to sell it for $5,500. Land is the only thing in this country that has not kept pace with the increase of population. Protected industries have absorbed the increase of value that, in the absence of laws favoring a special class, would have gone to the land ers. As a legitimate consequence of beautiful protection doctrine, cotton and Indian corn have been brought into competition with tbe ducts of our soil, forcing down prices both to the lowest point ever In order that the matter should dealt with by experts, Secretary has designated a number of U. S. toms Inspectors and officials of the toms Bureau of the Treasury ment, to act ns a commission to draw up the regulations necessary for the enforce¬ ment of the sugar schedule of the new tariff. This commission will be under the immediate direction of Assistant Sec retary Hamlin. Senator Jones, of Nevada, isn’t much of a populist, notwithstanding bis sen¬ sational letter announcing his abandon¬ ment of the republican party and his in¬ tention to act with the populists in the future; but he is a firm believer in the free coinage of silver av the ratio of 16 to 1, and a very shrewd politician; hence the publication of that letter. His sole ob¬ ject, in the opinion of yourcorrespondent, was to endeavor to force the silver ques¬ tion to the front in the Congressional campaign, because he thereby hopes to lessen the number of democratselected to fences theneat subfect. of H»»*. opinion »**."**•*£ in the party on ! do- not esttate £ rredmtthr •» Joses will cost, she to vote ^ phbliean. as he has dl<WJlone.
