OWTXXEIT HE HAL h.
TUESDAY. APRIL 28, 188. A
T. M PEEPLES. EDITOR
The Chinese war is almost eml
ed. France has had almost as
much success and made as much
reputation in her Chinese war as
England did in Egypt. Both eam
paigu'h have been complete fail
ures.
Augusta has recently had a
number of unfortunate failures
among her business men. Mr.
Stovall who recently failed, is a
a nephew of Gen Stovall, a leadmg
busnesa man of that city and it is
Stated that he is sercusly embar
rassed by the failure.
Our Army has been orded to re
tire from Panama and turn the
towns and country over to the
tender mercies of the warring fac
tions of the m mgr el population
tint claim to control it. The
gallinippers are getting to be too
much for the maiines
A Mississippi editor has applied
to the President for the pardon of
Jeff Davis. He does this he says
without - avis’ knowledge or con
sent. Mr. Davis is able to speak
for himself, and it is probable that
he will never ask for a pardon, a*-
be considers that he has done
no hing for which he desires to
ask the clemency of U. 8. Govern
ment.
The Atlanta dolegation to
Washington called on the Presi
dent last week and preseniert him
the invitation to attend the Com
mercial Convention to he held in
Georgia’s capital ir A/ay. The
President expressed great anxiety
to visit the Empire State but is so
pressed with business ttiat he ask
ed furthtr time to considtr the
m a i ter.
If he concludes to come he will
have an ovation no man has receiv
ed in this state since the “wah”
Gen A. R. Law l on has declined
/he Russian Missiou. The reason
given is lhatLe desires to reliev
the President from all embarras
merit over his continuation by the
Senate.
Ihis is to be regretted as no nntn
would better illustrato Georg:#
in ary important public position.
But the General has a high sense
of honor and hiR action illustrates
the man. Two important offices
tendered Georgians have been de
clined .
Sunset Cox intimates that he
will not accept the appointment
as minister to Turkey, if the coun
try will not consider it a joke
He has his off eye on the Governor
ship and New York is a bbtter
place to electioneer for that placp
than Constantinople. Tlie Repubs
limans, are standing with their low
er jaws dropped to an angle of 45
degrees astheannouncementismade
that so maay Dem ocrats are de
clining fat offices. They are be
giuing to believe that the Demo
crats wanted a change in the poli
cy of the Government more than
they did the offices. It is well.
The new President held his first
public levee last Tuesday uig'it.
Thbre was a ru b to get in
to the mansion. It is estimated
that there was live thousand peo.
pie there in line,preparing to shake
bis nand, but after standing for
three mortal hours and shaking
hands he had to retire. We had
about as soon turn a grind stone
foi three hours as to shake hands
that long, we have concluded to
withdraw our claims on die office.
Even a country Editor is not re
quired to stand such a sliakii g up
as that.

Atlanta can get up tUe liveliest
social sensation of any c ty in the
State, The Jackson case had hard
ly faded fro m memory, but ceased
to be of interest lovers of the sen
sational, when another case of the
same kmd is brought to ligu/.
John Ray turns the swiiche on
the W. & A. Rail Road and his
business carrys him away from

lurner m his wife’s room. Where
upon a flight ensaou and Turner
made a hasty uxn through the
vtiuduw.
The case was tried by the Police
Pourt and T urner was fined fifty
dollars. And both parties have
entered suit for divorce, the details
of which will furnish some spicey
developments,
Ihe tiranittville sac tory was run
last year at a loss of over eight
thousand dollars. This is the
tirst time this factory has failed to
declare a dividend in seventeen
years.
SNOW, FLOODS, AND CY
CLONES.
Last Tuesday and Wednesday

ANOTHER FaITH CURE.
The Constitution reports a re
markable case of faith cure that
really occnred in Atlanta- Robt.
Ozburn, a young man bad con
sumption. All hope of bis recov
ery had been abandoned and he
was so weak that he was confined
to his bed and was almost reduced
to a skeleton. A few days ago a
company of Christian ladies wer in
his room aud asked him if lie be
lieved that uod was able and wil
ling to restore him to health. He
answerea in the affirmation- All
present joined in fervent grayer
for the invalid.
After the prayer he feit the
ease depart, the soreness was heal
ed md 1 e arose from his bed and
walked across the room. He
has since b-en able to attend
church and is rapidly recovering
and he pledges himself to devote
the balance of his days to ihe ser

AIR LINE IMPROVEMENTS
The Richmond and Dauville
railroad company i as taken anoth
er step forward in the line of
improvements, and has intros
duced the block signal system on
its entire line, irotn Richmond to
Charlotte. This system is bimiliar
to that in usd by the Pennsylvania
road except that it is not worked
by doetridty. The block contait
mg the I gli is placed on top o;
the depots, were it can bo seen
for a consider tble distance
by engineers coming either way
The signal is worked by the tele*
graph operator from his office, who
makes it display a while, red or
green ligut, as occasion requires,
ihe white light beiug the clear
track signal. This is the best
and safest signal known to rail'
roads, its chief merit being that
it is sure and certain.
The Richmond and DaDville
track is now being stone balasted,
and wth swift passenger engines,
s tel rails and block signals it
possesses absolutely every apph.
ance for safety and comfort that
is known tr modern railroads. Its
equipment is really the best known
to the railroad world.
FROM TEXAS.
A busniess letter from J * J.
Glover, of Wise county Texas con
eludes as follows:
“We have the best wneat crop
1 have ever saw at this time of the
year. Our corn is fine though
not as good stand as common.
We have had the worst winter
that has been in thirty years, and
the consequence is that old corn is |
worth fifty cents a bushel. /11l
the letters we get from old Gwin
nett say there are hard times uack
there. Well if poof people will
stay in that county and starve le<
them rip. I mude fast year 600
bushels of corn on 13 acres
Respectfully,

BEHINND THE BARS.
A Bit AOX OF SWINDLERS OUT LOCKED
UP AND ARE PRETTY WELL
DONE FOR.
In the Unite 1 States commis
sioner’s court yesterday an inter
resting case was tried W. M.
Larders, a young man, about
twenty one years old, was brought
from Conyers early yesterday
morning. He was arrested on the
charge of swindling ard defraud
ing through the mails.
The Constitution yesterday
contained an account of tha arrest
of iioss A Bagleyjou asiinhiur
charge. 11 appears that Bagley
anti Landers were conducting a
swindling businesss at Big Creek,
a little place in Forsyth coun/y
They hr-ve been operating this bus
iness for two or three years,, and
hive succeeded in swindling firms
in Ohio, Chicago, Boston. Philadel
pbia, New York and in quifea
number of places. In fact, tljfey
bad become perfectly familiar v/ith
the “ways that were dark anq the
tricks that wore vain.’’ They
would write woil worded letters to
these firms, telling them they had
ordered certain goods several
weeks previous, and express sur
prise and chagrin because their
orders had not met with the prop
er attention. They would also
add that they had enclosed the
amount of their order in cpsll at
the' same time making another
order and insisting upon its be
ing filled at once. These orders
were always for small amounts.
The merchants to wbcin these
orders were addressed, not know
ing ihe firm of Bagley A Landers,
would begin a search of their
books for the order and
money they claimed to have sen/
them of course these searches
were Mwayi in vain. However,
'be orders were for such small
amounts never more than $lO,
that these firms would fill them,
trusting to the honor of Bagley
& Ladders for tlieir pay. Time
developed the fact that Bagley
<& Landers were first-class swin
dlers The merchants victimized
by them sent letters a'l over the
country making enquiries about
them. Kffoits were made to
catch them, and s’op their defrauds
ing game. These efforts were
successful,and yesterday Landers,
the junior member of the firm,
wa- brong t before Commissioner
//night for a hearing. Landers
is rather a good looking young
man, and bis conversation evinced
intelligence and business quahfi
cttioLs. He made a full state
men/ of the business tranac/ions
of the firm of Bagley & Landers.
He said, //owever he bad only
been engaged in /he dirty work
a month, that he had been induced
to undertake it by Bagley, who
was a much older man than him
self, and who was an expert in the
business. He gave the details in
full. The ins/gilficance of such a
business is the most absurb part
of the matter. How they could
conduct a i ayingbusiness ou such
small orders is a mystery. The
orders only raging from $2 50 to
J>lo each. It is diffiult to see
| how they could have tn de it a
! lucrative business. Nevertheless
they seemed satisfied with /Lie suc
; cesss /hey met with, aud iu all
probability would have continued
it longer had uot the postoffice de
pnvtmeri had them arrested. The
charges brought against Landers
were sustained and he went to jail
iu default of a $250 bond. Bag
ley was locked up Thusday. The
pair will now have an opportunity
to mature schemes for further tran
sactions.
A TEMPF.HT IN A TEA POT.
The big Rail Road squabble ov
er a Receiver for the East Tenn.
Va. Ga. Railroad, which attracted
the attemion of the State last
week has suddenly collapsed.
The Georgia creditors who s arted
in with such a flourish of trumpets
seizing three hundred miles of
Rail Road, carried tha case to the
Stute Supreme Court and obtain
ed a favorable decision and after a
long tedious argument obtained
from Judge Hammond an order
sustaining the right of Judge
Dorsey to take charge of the
Georgia division of ti e oad and
then the matter falls to the ground
Judge Dorsey called upon Maj.
Fink and demanded possession
which was refused, thereupon
Dorsey quietly retires from the 1
scene.
The fiinale is more rediculous
than the cuss. It seems that /he
whole interest at slake {under the
Acgier bill was $l7O, and thut
there was a standing tender on
the part of the road to pay this
debt, and a standing refusal to re
ceive it in order to get foothold in
the courts.
It is now charged that the whole
purpose of /he Irigation was pos
litical effect and that the enomies
of the Soad sought to place ttie
company in apparrent antagonism
to the State of Georgia in order
to secure certain legislati n that
is considered desirable <u the
hands of the General Assembly
which meets in July. The pur
pose as intimated being to force
a certain amendmert on the char
ter of the Bail Road company that
will cripjflcits business and depre
ciate its stock.
It is said, we Jo uot know with
how much truth, that the fine
Italian hand of Senator Brown
has been manipulating the
wires behind the curain.
The little speck of war between
Georgia and Uncle Ssrn, that , was
is big as a man’s hand last week,
has grown beatifully less until
it cannot be found witu a Hershel
telescope.
r DEATH OF G. A. MARTIN,
A poßtal from A. . J. Martin, a
orotner of the deceased, dated at
Norcross on the Bth, und only
reaching me on the 24th, brings
the sad intelligence of the recent
death of ‘-4b" Martin, familliarly
called so when a boy, and bet es
known here by that name.
lie was the third son of our old
friend and fellow citizen, Sain Mur.
tin, Esq , who was so long a citi
/.en here, and s« well known and
inspected.
Tne deceased was bom in this
county, in 1832, and resided qere
until 1857, when lie moved to Tex-
His education was but limited in
early life, and his only ad van Jiges
for an education avus in the o d
field schools, in his fathers neigh
jorlicod, now and then, as he could
be excused fiom the farm, //e
was munitions to attain to a high
er plane of education, and after
leaching manhood, at his own ex
pense, and under many difficulties
ho obtained it.
A short time af/er becoming a
ci’izeu of Texas, he read law and
was’ admitted to the bar, but finds
ing school teaching more congenial
t > his tiuco end more luorauve
perhaps, he directed his attention
to that profession and by ii an !
o/ber enterprises amassed a hands
tome estate.
An attack of Pneumonia pioved
fatal to him and on the 9th o*
Match last in his 53rd year he died
leaving x wife and family and nu
norous elatives to mourn his loss
t< or 28 years he was a citizen of
Ins far off adop ed state, and nev
er re visited his native state or kin
dred, as I remember, but from his
correspondence with his relatives
he - e aud from other sources toe
writer offer, heard of his success
in business and h.s at'Hinmeuts as
a gentleman of culture, and his
marked success in life as an educa
tor and as a ei/izen.
