About 12 o’clock she heard a fall in the street, and found that one of the men had jumped out of a window in room 16. The other three men could not be found. Brown was conscious when he was picked up, and he gave his name and address to a policeman. He stated to Sergeant Abbott that he had jumped from the window to commit suicide. The man had been drinking. He was taken to the Grady hos pital. The physicians found that his skull had been fractured and may prove fatal. Brown came from Gwinnett county two or three days ago.— Constitution, 21st. inst. The injured man is a brother of Col. Oscar Brown of this city, and lives near Gloster. Col. Brown went down to Atlanta Tues day afternoon to render all assist ance in his power to his brother. A CORN-SHUCKING. Geo. Mills, One of Gwinnett’s Prosperous Farmers, Gives a Royal Feast to His Neighbors. The scribe, in company with Mr, D. T. Cain, left town about 3 o’clock p. m. on Wednesday the 15th inst., and in response to an invitation headed west, and after traveling a distance of fen miles they turned in to the lot of G. W, Mills. There they were met by the polite son of tbe farmer, Early, who promptly took charge pf the faithful pony, Bob,and after being assured that the pony would have special care, we turned our atten tion toward the corn pile. The corn, however, was very Dear all shucked out, and iu about half an hour it was all housed, the shucks put away, and then the crop was guessed at. The guesses ranged from 600 to 1,000 bushels. Mr. Mills, who ought to know, thought there wore between 700 and 800 bushels. There were about 100 hands present. G. W. Mills is one of those kind of fellows that never gives a cheap corushucking. He invites all his neighbors, and they all come, and he always makes the necessary preparation to make them enjoy themselves. George announced supper ready, and everybody was invited to the bouse, where a feast had beeu prepared by the good wife, Rachel, assisted by her beautiful daugh ter, Miss Bell. Now, to tell what they had to eat is a task too great for me to undertake, but suffice it to say that I never saw more good things to eat at one time before Everybody had their fun, and when the assembly took its de parture all united in saying that the occasion was one of the most pleasant events of the kind they had ever attended.

Wednesday night a number of icitizens met at the court house to j further discuss the Cotton Mill j project. Another meeting i# to be held tonight (Friday) and it is earnest ly urged that everyone who feels an interest 111 the movement be present, as matters of vital im portance are to be acted upon, j The meeting will be held iu the court house, and will convene | promptly at 7:80, fast time. An Answer t» Ben Butler, Daniel Web ster, Mr. Blank, C. D. Jacobs and D. T Caia. Gentlemen : Your letter and certificates concerning the ex penses of the City court is ridicu lous. What about the hundreds of wit nesses that attend the City court day after day in the busiest time of the year, and not oue penny for their lost time ? Count ngaiu, Messrs. Jacobs and Cain, and give us a true certificate. What was the promise to the grand jury when the City court was established ? It was to be a trial court, and if it did not pay its own way without increasing the burden of the tax-payers, it was to be abolished. Blank says it has only cost the county this year sl,- 748.26. Now, think a moment who pays this money. How is it raised, and from whom is it col lected ? The tax-payers. What became of the amountof $1,748.26? What order was passed to pay out this amount ? The City court. If the Court was self-sustaining, why was it paid out ? If the Court has caused a burden on the tax-payers, as is admitted by Blank, why not stand up to your promise and help to abolish it ? lean tell you: It is a fat job for some people and a burden for • thers. I find that there is but little civ il business in either of tbe Couits. The Superior court only held about seven days last term, and did all the business that was ready for trial. If there had been business for the court for the remaining five days, I suppose the court would have been held through those days. I contend that Judge Russell can dispose of the entire business of this Court during the four weeks allowed for the Superi or court, as Judge Hutchins did for 12 or 15 years. Mr. Blank says that the last grand jury recommended that the City court bt abolished without even investigating the cost of said Court. Blank is as badly mis taken in this as he is in the ex penses of the court. There was a committee examined the Treasur er’s books and found that the City court had drawn out of the treasury SSBO in the month of July; and further found the treasury very near empty; and I am told that every case tried at this term, when defendents in criminal cases were not turned loose, were carried to the Superior court, where they had to be tried over 'oy Judge Russell, and when new trials were granted they had to go back to the City court and be tried over there. Al most every time a lawyer loses his case he carries it up Then why not bring the case in the Superior court at the start and do away with this farce of trying and re trying cases at the cost of the people ? Is this a self-sustaining Court? I tbiuk not. What is the City court for? Who wants the Court v Is it for the officers and lawyers of the Court, or is it for the people ? You cannot say it is for the peo ple, for I have a list of 1200 namps against the Court, and every name on the list are white men and tax payers. The officers and lawyers of this Court “may fool all of the people part of the time, but they cannot fool all the people all the time.” The last grand jury did not think it needed the advice of Mr. Blank, and I have not heard of a single oue of them that proposes to subscribe to his school of fig ures. I hope that the people may have manhood enough about them to stamp this Court out of existence, as DeKalb, Newton and ma ly oth er counties have done, and any and every other move that may be made to increase the taxes of the people of this county.

A shooting affray occurred in Bay Creek district of Gwinnett county last Thursday evening on the farm of Mr. David C. Haw thorne, about seven miles from Lawrenceville on the Covington and Lawrenceville public road. The party shot was a negro named Tavlor, who was being pursued by Rockdale county officers for a bur glary committed in that county George and Ira Taylor, two ne groes hailing from Virginia, had looted a house in Sheffield district of Rockdale county and wen mak ing their get away when they were overtaken near Mr. Hawthorne’s home. When overtaken one of them drew a pistol and fired ou the officers, hut the aim was bad, I and the ball went wide of its mark. Bv way of a mild retaliation an officer emptied a load of shot into one of the negroes, whereupon the other one made an attempt to run, but was stopped by the officer’s | theat to give him a like dose. They were then taken in charge by the [officers and carried back to Rock j dale county and put in jail.—Lo | gauville Progross.
