The conviction of Dr. Armstrong

lar approval, The Bishop has
not taken any action iD the matter
yet.
John L. Cochran, a revenue
spotter, of Newton county, was
Beriouly shot, last week, by the
Parker brothers, of that oounty.
Cochran had been making himself
very officious in reporting cases
to the revenue officers.
As fall approached a Georgia

The high-w*y robber gels in
his work successfu/y in the streets
of Atlanta. It seems to be a sass
er job to rob a man on the streets
of Atlanta at night than it would
be in the back-woods of Rabun.
We do not remember an instance
fn which the foot-pads have been
caught
The London mob that for a day
and.night, kept that city in tur
moil and dread, last,week, simply
shows that iheie is a ground wort
of dissatisfaction among the mass
es, that only needs a sufficient
opening for the volcano to burst
forth with a fury that may wrap
the city in flames.
Jndge Hutchins granted White*
head a new trial. This case is a
remarkable instance of how the
tide of public opinion eDbs and
flows. Before his trial the peo
ple of Oconee were almost onani-.
mous for his conviction, but after
he had been sentenced to hang,
public sympathy aroused itself at
once, and a public subscription
was taken up to pay his lawyer’s
fees who were seeking a new trial.
Jackson county is now virtually
a stock law county. Four districts
in the county now have it in oper
ation and are well plaased with
it. There are two moie petitions
befo-ie the ordinary, calling for an
election at an early date. The
districts that have adopted the
law are tearing away fences, mak
ing pastures and planting the
hedgerows in corn or cotton.
The two Sams have had wonder
ful success at Cincinnati. Fifteen
thousand people ciowded the hall
to hear their last sermons and the
police had great difficulty in
handling the throngs that surged
up to the doors to gain admit
ance.
They will return to their homes
to take a weeks rest, and then at
tack the vice of Chicago. Exter
aive preparations have been made
for their reception in this wicked
city.
Col. P. F. Lawshe, having aband
oned the hope of being able to
eellect enough of his debts to
■tart the Southron agaia, has
gone into the life insurance busi
ness, and will make his future
home in Atlanta. The Col has
had a stormy time since he came
to Gainesville but always held a
“stiff upper lip” as the boye say.
He will make a first class insur
ance agent. Pluck and persever
ance will succeed at almost any
thing a man undertakes. We
wish him success
Atlanta is having a lively racket
over the identity of J. W. Pierce,
who was killed on the Georgia
Pacific. Pierce was a wealthy
■tock man in Texas and as scon
as notice of his death was publish'
•d, two women claimed him as
their husband.
Mrs. Weaver claims that his name
was J. P. W eaver and is her hus
band. Now comes Mrs. Pierce
■nd her son, from Texas, and says
that he was Pierce and had never
been known as Weaver and that
■he can establish his idenity by
hundreds of people who know him
la that state.
Both parties are confident and
have employed lawyers and the
prespeot is that there will be an
htareating law suit between the
tival claimants.
Col. Henderson, commissioner
of Agriculture, sayß the demand
for tobacco seed is simply aston*
tshing He has already distribu
ted over forty pounds.
Avery interesting legal ques
tion was submitted to one of our
lawyers recently. Two men swap
ped houses, and the question was
whether the chinches belonged to
the man who moved off or the one
who moved in.
The lawyer replied he did not
think the Supreme court uai set
tled that question yet, but from
toe number of cases being carried
to that court he thought it would
pass upon it soon.
Senator Colquitt is coming to
the front as the National Temper
ance advocate. He is constantly
receiving invitations to speak on
this subject. It is stated that ho
wil', at an early day, introduces
bill providing for the submission
of the question of the sale cf li
quor in the district of Columbia,
a popular vote. The bill will be
modled some what after the Geor
gia law on this subject, except it
will not be quiet so ligid.
The saloon keepers of Washing
ton laugh at 'he idea of prohibi
tion'in the National capitol, but
they also laughed in Atlanta until
the election came and the hand
writing was upon the wall.
The Rev. Mr. Brannon who is
charge of the orpnans home, near
Dec&tnr, is being arraigned be
fore the public because ne believes
Soloman’s injunction, “Spare the
rod and spoil the child,”
Mr. Brannon thinks that or
phan boys, like most other child
ren, some times need a liberal snp
ply of the rod to control them
and maintain the discipline of the
home. We do not know anything
of the facts of this particular
case, and the punishment may
have been cruel, but as a general
rule it may be safely set down
that the rising generation do not
get a lick amiss. The dockets of
our courts will show that a little
more parental control would be
wholesome for the boy and man.
MOBOCRAOr.
In these days when mobs at
tempt to set aside the law, over
ride, ptivats rights and by violence
andbloodshed,to enforce their ideas
of what is proper, and it may be
well enough to look to the class
of men who lead and fill up the
ranks of these mobs who kill and
destroy with an utter disregard of
law.
Take the cases of the frequent
riots in the coal mines of Pennsyl
vania or the hoodlums who are
driving the Chineese from their
homes on the Pacific Slope and
mne-tenths of them will be found
to be foreigners. Men who have
fled from the tyrany of the old
world to breath free air on the
Western Continent. And yet as
soon as they land here they are
ready to join any wild scheme to
enterfere with the regular order
of things. They claim the pro
tection of the law and yet are pre
pared to shoot down honest la
borers who will not join them in
strikes, that deprive these work
men of bread for themselves and
families. In Germany or France
these bowling mobs would be dis
persed by gatling guns but iu the
“laud of the free’’ they riot kill
bum and yet go free.
It is only when these large bod
ies of foreigners assemble that
such disgraceful riots, as have re
cently occured, are to be found.
In the Soutn where this element
is few in numbers, such mobs are
seldom known.

MURDER IN TOCCJOA,
Toccoa comes to the front with
a horrible murder. The det&itß
are enongh to shook, not only the
community, bat the entire State.
It seems to haye been a coolly
planed assassination for a pitiful
amount of money
We glean the following report
from an exchange :
On last Thursday morning,
Fred Freemen, a fifteen year old
son of Maj- J. M Freeman, a prom
inent citizen of Toccca. and one
of the best men of Habersham
connty, pnrsnaded Alex Manlden,
a son of Mrs** Maulden. a widow
jady, to go banting with him.
The boy bad one dollar and sixty
cents, in silver, and concluded not
to take with him, but Freeman
offered to loan him his pocket
book to carry it in and thty start
ed off. Fred Freeman said he
had to leave for Texas next morn
ing and had no money Yeung
Maulden failed to r6tnrn and a
negro man found his dead body
near an old house* The hogs had
mutilated it. The head had been
ground off from the body and it
was with some difficulty he could
get it away from the hog, The
body was subsequently found,
showing that the boy hai been
rohbed and then shot. Freeman
was seen running from the place
about Ban-down and just after the
firing of the gun, which was heard
by several persons.
Next morning young Freeman
had a silver dollar changed and
left for South Carolina- The cir
cumstances all pointed to young
Freeman as the murdersr of his
companion, and the verdict of the
coroner’s inquest charged him
with the crime. He had not been
captured at the last account but a
pursuing party is on bis track.
Great sympa:hy is felt for his
father and family who are still un
willing to believe their son guilty
of such a horrible crime.
BILL.
Representative Candler has in
troduced in the house a bill to
pievent the contraction of curren
cy. It provides that whenever
the circulation of any National
bank ie surrendered, in whole or
in part, ard is not taken up by
other National banks within thirty
days, the Secretary of the Treas
ury shall issue an equivalent
amount of Tresury notes. These
notes shall be deposited iu the
Treasury and paid out as moneys
kept for the discharge of the obli*
gations of the government. They
shall be receivable for salaries
and dues to the govtrnraent; shall
be a legal tender between Nation”
al bants, and for all dues to Na
tional banks and shall be redeem-,
able in coin. Coin held in the
Treasury at the date of the pas
sage of this act for redemption of
legal tender notes shall also be
applicable to rhe redemption of
the notes hereby authorized, and
such coin reserve may be increas
ed from time to time by adding
thrreto other sums from pay
ments made to the Treasurer in
the discretion of the Secretary of
the Treasury; provided, however>
the whole amount Atof the coin re
serve shall nevei exceed 30 per
cent of the whole amount of le
gal tender and Treasury notes
outstanding, nor fall below 25
per cent, of that amount- The
true intent of the bill is declared
to be to provide that the volume
of paper currency outstanding, ex
clusive of gold and silver certifi
catef, shall not fall below the
amount no w fixed by law.
THE NATION MOURNS.
THE SOLDIER AND STATESMAN.
The death of Maj Gen. Win
field Scott //ancock and Horatio
Seymour, of New Yoik, it the
same week is a national loss.
.Soth of thes ; men had beep Dem»
ocratic candidaies for the Presi,
deney since the war, and both
were defeated, not on account of
any want of fitness or capacity)
but because the times were not
ripe for the election of a Demo
cratic chief magistrate. The pas
sions engeadent by the civil- war
had not cooled down sufficiestly
to open the door for a change in
administion.
Seymour was nominated in 1868,
with little hope of success, against
the most popular general of the
Union armies. It was hardly to
to be expected that s civilian, who
could not rally the soldier element
around him would be able to de
feat Grant, who was the idol of
the army and whose name was
sounding through the world as
one of the great military chieftains
of modern times. Bwt with all of
the disadvantages, he polled a
heavy vote and was only defeated
by a small vote.
He was a faithful worker in the
ranks and took an active part in
every campaign up to the last, al
though his health was rapidly
failing.
He died last Friday evening at
the residence of his sister, Mrs.
Roseoe Conkling in New York,
where he was on a visit surround
od by his family and friends.
Gen Hancock died last Tues
day evening at his home on Gov
ernor's Island, New York. He
died as he had lived at his post of
duty.
He was the senior Maj. Gen. oi
the United States army, at.d was
in command of the department of
the Atlantic. About twenty days
ago he went to Washington and
other pointb on government busir
ness. A boil developed on the
back of Lis neck, which soon de
velop d into a malegnant carbun
cle, He returned to his bead
quarters and submitted himself to
medical treatment, His trouble
was not regarded as serious at
first but he gradually sank, until
death relieved him. Ho was in
his office on Saturday and a corpse
on Tuesday.
Extensive preperations were
about being made by ibe war dee
pariment for a grand military dis
play, but his wife objected and
his remains were to be laid away
without that martial pomp and
display which some times mock
the sad solemnly that should sur
round the burial of the great of
earth.
Gen. Hancock was one of the
few Federal commanders, who did
their full duty, during the civil
war, and yet left ro stain of re
proach upon their escutbeon and
who came out of that terrible con
flict with the admiration and es
teem of friend and foe. In the
great battles of the war. Han
cock division was always in the
hottest part of the fight and he
made no mistakes. He was a sol
dier, and answered dntys call
with a brave heart and steady
hand, bnt he rose above the par
tizan to the higher atmosphere of
a patriot.
The glory of Sherman and
Sheridan’s success is tarnished by
vandalision that will cling to them
as long as they l-.ve, and will throw
its shadow across their tombs
when they shall sleep beneath the
sod. Not so with Hancock. The
citizens of New York and Virginia,
of Texas and Vermont can stop at
his grave to shed a tear over the
gallant soldier and patriot.
He was sixty-two years of age
and entered the army in 1844
At the opening of hostilities in
1861 he was a captafo, at the close
of the war, a Maj. Gen. kfter the
surrender he was placed in com
mand of the department of the
Gulf, comprising the elites of
Louisiana and Texas, and it was
while holding this command, with
no law but his own will that he
demonstrated his c ; vil ability and
determination to sheathe his
sword with the close of hostilities.
In 1880, he was nominated for
the Presidency by the Democrats
at Cincinnati. The wave of eus
thusiasm that followed tis nomi
nation was unpreceaented. No
man could charge him with being
disloyal to the government and
yet the South felt that her inter
ests were safe in his hands. B»t
defeat came and he returned to
bis duty as a sold-er, with 'he res
pect ol the nation, although a de
feated candidate.
He leaves no children. He had
only one son, who lived iu Missis
sippi and died but a few years
since.
A bill has been introduced in
Congress to give his wife a pen
sion and his friends have started
a subscription fund to raise a suf
ficient snm to place his family
above want.
THE MACON AND COVING
TON
For some time we have heard
rumors that a strong effort was
beiDg made to divert this new
railroad from the orignal route to
Athens, And in a recent issue
of the Banner-Watchman a state
ment was made that a correspon
dence had been going o» between
the city authorities and the
Northern Capitalist who control
this new line wit l a view of mak
ing Athens the present terminous.
Then by securing the North East
ern railroad now leased to the
Richmond and Danville road, a
direct line would be opened through
to Knoxville.
We didn't place much reliance
in this scheme, for the reason that
we thought it doubtful whether
the Richmond and Danville road
would be willing to surrender its
lease to another company Be
sides (his, we had the oft repeat
ed statement of Col. Livingston,
President of of the company <' at
the road would bebui’t directly to
Covington and from that point
would be extended to intersect
the Air Line at some accessible
point or the direct line *o Knox
ville which is the point of ultimate
destination.
But the following, which we clip
from Sunday’s Constitution, looks
very much like the arrangements
had been perfected to take in
Athens. If this be true, and it is
thns far only a floating rumor
Covington will hardly seen e the,
prize.
The Constitution says:—lt is an
open secret that the Macon and
Covington road will be built to
Athens. It is said that Machan
& Post have made a a contract
with Mr. John Inman and his as
sociates of Aew York, by which
he will take tho road when thoy
have graded sixty miles, build it
through to Athens, and equip it in
first-class style. It is expected
that in return for this .Athens will
release the Richmond and Dan
ville from its contract to build
through Rabun Gap.
It is said that Machan &Co ,
have made their arrangements to
grade the first sixty miles and
that their contract calls for this to
be completed by the first of June.
Also that Madison and Coving
ton will be put in co mpetiiion as
the point on the Georgia railroad
through which the new road will
pass. A delegation of Athenians
met Mr. Inman and his parly in
Atlanta last Wednesday, and the
above reports the outcome of tbe
consultation they held. One thing
seems to be sure and that is (hat
the Macon ard Covington will be
built to Athens.

SPEIIL AKXO UEMENT- |
It is commonly reported that the Georgia School ( Language, Science I
is very much the largest rationizi d school, and its i: Iruetors the most nrotr ■
ive teachers in this section. Ibe facts fully substan ite this assertion. I
The growth of the school and the changes indie ed by, and necessary to I
preseut flomishing condition have not c inic suddeoij or by accident. They I
resulted rather from persistent adherence to certain principles, the correct* I
which seem now to be reasonably well established.
FIRST
among these was the sparing of no i xpeu-t that would add to osr edumtiil
al facilities. We ark oo believers in the old ti .ue method still in use with »a|
old fogies, of teaching only by rote, and making puppets and parrots oat of thsil
pupils and dupes out of their patrons.
SECONDLY,
We have always strcuously opposed th e pu-miscuous herding together of bsfl
and girls. Ours is the only school in the county that has separate male tm) ■
frale departments. Some schools claim th at it reiines the boys to have Ihea J
ociate with the girls. Do you wish to s aeratcc your lovely daughter to hsl
efioe somelody’f uncouth boy ? WE TH t\ h NOT I aud thet tore sshyj
o send her to our school.
FINALLY
the School maintains a superior patronage ail can adorj to offer Jsrjg
ms than any school iu this section We eoofiiently beii -Vi weglv; «>f»r
