TE E I C RT VAEXJ Y FAIR. LIBRARY . One i>l fhn most plrnrant days of i ur life waR spent in Fort Valley last J hms- Jay attending the fair given in the in t«pJ of the public library at that place. The attendance was large, especially at nightr and the hall devoted to the fair was literally packed, and nearly all the articles sold. The eating department was simply spendid, meals as good any Lotel iu New Fork were furnished at 25 cents. Hon. S. B. Brown deliv ered the address of the day, and the rolls of old veterans were called. The voting was spirited hud interest ing. That for the most poo liter [yc nng hdy lotted §47,80, and Miss Lillie By- ingfon received the highest number of votes. The prettiest Baby brought in §20 45, and Dr. and Mrs. E. V. Stead man’s baby was elected. For the most popular man in fhe county the- gold headed cone was awarde d to Mr. Hen ry O. Harris. The most popular young lady under 16 years of age was award ed to Mis Fannie McGekee. About forty fro m Perry and vicinity , , were iD attendance, and we would have believe that I am dead I intend to do h „ d mPE j morc lmt f or the fact that what I have »*id, and if they &f» not) Conference bad just eloae d, a nd Christ- i.nd her nephew as a farmhand. There were several burglaries and robberies in Wi'llsvilie, and some of the goods stolen were found in Freeman’s house. He stoutly denied the robberies, but the grand jury found a bill of indictment; at the trial he pleaded guilty, and was sent to the peuitentinry for eighteen months. But after the people of Wvllsvilla did net believe that Freeman did the crime to which he pleaded guilty andior which he was suffering imprisonment. The actions of his housekeeper’s nephew Had opened their eyes, and' Gov. i?ob- innon was appealed . to for a pardon, which was finally granted, and William Freeman was set free. He immediately disappeared, and there came to Wells ville a handsome woman, who knew all the people very well, although they did not at first know'her. It was “Hand some Bill}” in petticoats, and she now introduced herself as Mary Ann Shafer. She gave her history previous to her appearing among them as a boy. She was the daughter of German immigrants; Iht father died so*n after they landed; her mother married again: her step fath er would not support her, and at eleven vears of age she donned a boy’s suit aud left borne to seek her fortune. She was then twenty-three—and for twelve years she lmd concealed her sex, aud rnn on canal boats and worked on farms for a livelihood. 1 In regard to the robberies, for which she was sent to prison, she said they were committed by tlie house keeper’s nephew, who visited her in the jail anri declared that, if she did not plead guilty he would kill her, and she believed he would carry out bis threat, aud that the safest place for her was in tl>p penitentiary. That was the cause; of her pleading. When she was par doned and released" she thought -dhe safest refuge would be her own proper womans apparel. And she made as pretty a woman as “ Handsome Billy” had been a boy. The Wellsville mer chant whose store she was charged with robbing, and who had been the cause of her wrongful imprisonment, made her all the reparation in his.power. He met her, apologized, loved, proposed and married heir. * Tie Beat Agricultural Journal Published is the South.** THE SOUTHERN Atari in®. m A LAKGX QUARTO of 33 pages, handsomely print ed, tilled vrith choice read ing of interest to the far mer, with au illustrated fashion department for tho ladies. .* K year. -Sample copy 16 rents.

Messrs. Butner and Draper went to a house where the negro was found, and told him to eonsidor himself under arrest, and Mr. Butner attempted to h mdenff him. The negro replied that he would die before he would be arres ted, and at the same time drew out a long knife. Messrs Butner and Draper both levelled their pistols on him, but this had no effect, and he made three attempt to stab Mr, Butner. That discreet officer, not wishing to shoot him, grasped a hickory stick which hung on the wall and everlastingly knocked that negro, into the middle. of next week, aud while he was down the officers handcuffed him and brought him into town.” The Albany Advertiser say&i “We had apleasant call a few days ago from Mr. Geo.
