COL SMITH TO SELL OUT?
Hr port eel nt Athrnn Thai He Will
Sell 11 i m Oftlethorpe Ki <ll Ihkm.
Athens, Ga., Nov. 27. —It is learned
on good authority that Col. James M.
Smith, the big Oglethorpe county plant
er will sell his large real estate hold
ings in that county, and as a result
of the deal Athens will likely gain two
splendid citizens.
According to the report received in
Athens last night. Col. Smith has em
ployed Mr. T. L'arry Gantt, formerly
editor of the Athens Banner, who now
resides in South Carolina, to sell his
farms in Oglethorpe county. It is un
derstood that Mr. Gantt will move to
this city and at once begin nego
tiations for the sale of the entire prop
erty.
It is also understood that Col. Smith
will remove to this city and erect a
handsome home here to make Athens
his place of abode for the balance
of his life.
Col. Smith owns some 20,000 acres of
land in Oglethorpe county and he has
large real estate holdings in a score of
other counties in the state. His land
will be divided into small farms, ac
cording to the report received here, and
Mr. Gantt will receive a Salary of
something like $5,000 per year for his
services as Col. Smith’s agent.
The friends of Col. Smith in Athens
differ in their opinions as to whether
or not there is political significance in
this move on the part of Col. Smith,
many of them believing that he has
made up his mind to become the Gov
ernor of Georgia before many years.
It has been known for some months
that Col. Smith has been thinking
of moving to Athens, but the statement
that he will sell his vast real estate
holdings in Oglethorpe county comes
as a surprise to the few that have heard
it.
If the present plans are carried out
as stated, Athens will gain two citizens
in Col. Smith and Mr. Gantt by the
deal.

A MERCHANTS’ BANK.
Augusta, Nov. 27.—Augusta is to
have anew bank as soon as the legal
Hreliminarics can be gone through.
It will be known as the Merchants'
Bank of Augusta, and will begin busi
ness with a paid up capital of $50,000
and a surplus of $25,000.
The movers in the enterprise are
Maurice Walton. P. H. Rice, W. H.
Brigham, A. S. Hatch, W. J. Hollins
worth, W. T. Field, J. W. Levy, J.
E. Tarver, John C. Lee, H. H. Cum
ming, George S. Murphey and E. W.
Herman. These merchants complain
that the cotton men have the right of
way in Augusta banks, and that in
the fall, when merchants want accom
modations in handling new' stocks, the
banks have all their money out to cot
ton factors and buyers.
The new’ Merchants' Bank, as its
name implies, while doing a general
business, will cater especially to mer
chants.

BENJAMIN’S ESCAPE.
How George Croneli Anxisted Him in
ilerinutln.
From the New York Press.
Few men in the financial vortex are
so .well known'as George Crouch, artist,
writer, soldier of fortune, speculator,
editor, reconteur, man-about-town, hu
morist and blockade runner. He is
more than all those put together; he is
a philosopher. At 61 he aspires to a
comfortable bed in some clean hospital,
where, elear of brain, he can devote
twenty remaining years to literature.
Crouch is a native of England and a
red-hot American by adoption, with an
American accent. He is said to look
very much like James It. Keene, and
for years was mistaken for Mr. Keene's
brother. The resemblance begins and
ends at the mustache and whiskers.
But the two men, both Englishmen, are
warm friends. Crouch's fondest remin
iscence is his experience as a blockade
runner.
At 19 Crouch was in the employ of a
great Liverpool house of the name of
Aderie & Cos., cotton merchants. (I
would not swear to the spelling.) His
headquarters was in the Bahamas,
from which he superintended the ship
ment of cotton to England. His office
was a consequential affair. Blockade
runners arrived almost daily from
Charleston, Savannah, Brunswick, Port
ltoyal, etc., and Confederate cotton was
transferred to British bottoms and sent
on its way to Liverpool and London.
Wrecks were of common occurrence,
and many of them were not due entire
ly to accident. Men knew how to scut
tle in those days, and it was easier to
sink a ship and cargo thUti take
chances of going back to the coast with
the prospect of a rope around the neck.
Besides looking after the interests of
his firm, Crouch represented the Lloyds,
registers of shipping, and made regular
reports to them.
The captain of the lighthouse cutter
of the Bahamas was a negro whose
boast was that he had Scots blood in
his veins. He was a veritable Capt.
Kidd for dash and deviltry, and as
good a sailor as ever shifted a quid.
One day he brought into Crouch's of
fice a miserable looking specimen of
humanity garbed in tatters, sat him
down in a corner and, pointing to
Crouch, said, "Set dar tell he's ready
ten 'tend ter yo' bizness.” The clerk
of Aderie & Cos., a trifle airy, ,to be
sure, turned around in the course of
half an hour and asked the wretch
what his name was. "Capt. Benjamin,”
was the reply. “Well, Benjamin, I
am about to hear from you. What is
the matter? Another wreck?" "Yes.''
"What was the name of the vessel?”
"The Jefferson Davis.” "Ah; That’s
odd. We have had many ships named
The Confederacy, or The Confederate
States, but yours is the first Jefferson
Davis.”
All sorts of questions were asked
about the Jefferson Davis, but not a
satisfactory answer could be obtained.
Capt. Benjamin dodged so much that
Crouch became offended and threaten-"
ed to proceed against him for scut
tling, whereupon the captain said,
laughing jovially: "I am not what 1
seem, sir. I am Judah P. Benjamin,
Secretary of State of the Confederacy.
I have just escaped from the coast
of Florida In an open boat, and want
to proceed to England.” Crouch's first
Inclination was to drop dead t>f aston
ishment. * But he held himself togeth
er and gave the "brains of the Con
federacy” ample assistance. The iirst
thing Secretary Benjamin did was to
get into a suit of Crouch's clothes,
which, though a trifle too full, made
him of respectable appearance. Then
Crouch fed him bountifully.
Mr. Crouch says: "I treated him like
a lord. He had all the money he could
carry—French gold coins. When he got
ready to leave the Bahamas for Liver
polo I wrote him out a letter of credit
for £100.000! History says he arrived
in England poor. That is an error.
He was a very rich man. His wife
was then living in Paris in the styl*
of our Mrs. Mackay, but the couple,
as you know, had separated. Mr. Ben
jamin soon took a prominent place at
the bar in England, and in a short
time became queen’s counselor. His
fees were enormous, and his riches
vastly multiplied.”
Ten years passed. One night Crouch
was a guest at a banquet in the Guild
hall and found himself seated between
his host and a stranger. After the cof
fee the former man whispered: "By
the way, do you know the gentleman
on your left? He is very distinguished.
He Is, in fact, no other than Mr. Judah
P. Benjamin, Q. C., former Attorney
General, Secretary of War and Secre
tary of State of the Confederacy."
Swallowing his amazement, after the
manner of a soldier, Crouch, awaiting
the opportune moment, said to his
neighbor, "How do you do, Mr. Secre
tary. I have had the pleasure of meet
ing you before.” Benjamin, in sur
prise, said: "Indeed, sir? Might 1 in
quire where and when?” "Do you re
member When you and Mr. Breckin
ridge left Jefferson Davis after the sur
render?" "Very well; but ” "And
you hurried to Florida and escaped in
an open boat to the Bahamas?” "Why,
er, yes, but ” "And you reached
British ground in a dirty, ragged, sailor
suit and were brought to the office of
Aderle & Cos. by tthe negro captain
of the lighthouse cutter?” “How very
remarkable, sir; but how do you know
of these things?"
“Never mind just yet. And you sat
down in a corner while an impudent,
insolent clerk finished his letters, after
which he called you ‘Benjamin,’ and
took your interrogatories about the
sinking of your vessel?" "This is most
astonishing, sir! Please explain your
self.” "You remember every incident,
Mr. Secretary?" "Every one, perfect
ly." "And, finally, when the clerk
learned who you were, he gave you
a suit of clothes and wrote you a let
ter of credit for 100,000 pounds ster
ling?” "But answer me. If you please;
how can you know so accurately of
these things?” “Because 1 was the
clerk, and yuu told me all about your
escape." A warm and lasting friend
ship ensued, and nothing in London or
the United Kingdom was too good for
George Crouch.
—"Smithers doesn't seem to be en
joying that cigar you gave him just
now. Look at the face he makes
when he smokes It!” "I don’t blame
him. It is the cigar he gave me yes
terday.”—Cincinnati Ttmes-Star.
