The well was 00 feet deep, and as the bucket' was being drawn upward when within 10 feet of the top the rope broke, and the backet fell to the bot- kc T,ns on the bead and shoulder. The blow broke one stave in the bocket, and knocked Mr. Levins senseless. The bucket, together with tne mud it con tained when it fell, weighed 47 pounds. Mr. L. recovered from the shock in a short time, and is doing well now. His cranium must certainly be '-put up” of the very best of material.

It is time then for the wi^e journalist to take his stand amid the drifting currents of debate and gossip and review the situation—to see what has been done, and what hasn't been, to see what is the fate of the measures that the people are interested in and to guess at the probable length of the session. ACoxsrrnmox man has been engaged on this reflective work and present below a resume of the month that will be interest ing u> those who have not been brave enough to wade through the sinuous and tedious daily reports and sift from the chaff of technicalities the grains of information contained therein. TH* BA COW MURDER LAW. There is no bill before the legislature that excites more interest than the bill intro duced by Major Bacon to expedite trials for murder. By the provisions of this bill the courts most drop all business to hasten through any murder case that comes befoie it, and if there be no court in session the judge must call a session and at once try the case; it must then go direct to the su preme court and there be affirmed or re verse*] at once; if reversed a new trial must be had at once. We regret to learn tlu*t this bill has been beaten in the indicia y committee. It ta said that it received only one vote. The demand for this bill is al most universal, and it is thought that it will be J *■ ** fore the that we have heard urged. THE MURDER M MXaCT” BILL. As if to compensate for the poasible de feat of this bill, it seems to be pretty cer tain that the bill passed at the last session, providing that a "recommendation to mer cy” by a jury shall change the verdict in murder cases from death to imprisonment in life, will be repealed. The senate has already passed a repeal bill by a very heavy vote, and there seems to be little fear that it will fail in the house. The operation of the bill in the past year seems to have con vinced every one that it abolishes capital 1 -diluent except, possibly, where the de nt is so poor or obscure that he is not hie to make any defense. Not a single death sentence has been made since the law passed, though several verdicts of nave been found in mnrder will be passed anyhow when it”comes bc- bouse. There Is no objection to it to know whether or not ita repeal i TtTslp—BMt—CV.dtsm Lie*—Fralt Trm-Xali F»ed—P swing Cora—MilekOows—Oebbags Worn*—Grsps Ert—Gtasral Crops— Tho Gtrdza—A Poor Paraor. The wheat crop of the country is safe, and. as a general rule, all over the country, the farmer's toil with this crop has been crowned with success. There are some localities In some of the states the corn crop has suf fered fiom drouth, but there has been gen erally timely rains and com has wonder fully improved; what at one time was feared would be scarcely half a crop will give fully two-thirds to three-quarters of a crop. Oata and barley will be in fair supply. Cotton and tobacco bids fair to be extra. In short, the hopes of the early season will be more than vindicated. There will be an abundance to make glad the heart of the farmer and give renewed life and strength to all departments of human industry. Have ^ou learned any lessons, farmers, from the teachings of the season? Have you seen that slip-abod farming will no longer pay? Have you discov ered that poor fanning tends to sterility of soil ? Did you see your neighbor thoroughly prepare bis ground before plant ing bis crop, while you partially prepared yoors; his land stood the drouth and he will make a good crop of corn while you will make a half crop—is it so? Have you discovered why the productive capacity of your farm has decreased. The season is ad vancing toward a close; your mode of plant- in ? ?!“ y° Q * bare Bring, while your neighbor will make something more. Go to work now and resolve next season, by better farming and better management, to increase the productive capacity of your land. THX OARDKX. There are some things which we regret to « becoming scarcer in the farm gardens. Things which do not eat very well by themselves, but which ren- nasturtiums, and such vegetables for pickles and relishes as should be grown in every garden. How many farm gardens in Ful ton county have parsley, marjoram, sum- mer savory thyme, caraway, sage, mints, fennel, dill, coriander, mustard, etc. All of these things are of easy culture, and it pays to grow them. A GREAT DEPARTMEXT. Very many of our politicians almost ig nore the agriculture of Georgia—do not seem to realize the fact that it is the leading industry of the state. They do not seem to realize '-he fact that the future prosperity, and glory of the state depends on her agri culture. What would become of the com mercial, manufacturing and financial great ness of Georgia without this industry? why, it is their main support. If it fails they are all depressed by it. Our agricul ture should be made one of the great de- partments of the state government It sltould be as carefully looked after, as jeal ously watched, and as liberally dealt with as any other department CHICKEN LICE. If hens become lousy, rub a little ken> ne oil under their wings and on their beads; it will drive away the intruders. If the roosts become infested with mites or other vermin, "paint’’ them with kerosene oil, and they will be all right If nens have crab leg or poultry itch, apply kerosene with a feather, and i( will cure the legs and A POOR FARMER How many of them there are In the coun try. Go on their farms—what a lonely, de serted appearance the dwelling house pre sents. The out-houses are in a dilapidated condition: wagons, plows, agricultural im plements hang on fences or stand In open yards, unprotected from the weather; grass fields dried up; cattle looking hungry, and crops generally presenting the appearance of having been miserably cultivated. FRUIT TREES. It isoften. the case that you 'hear the owner of an orchard, or of fruit trees, say: I cannot tell why, but my trees are not doing well. Tb» trouble is in the man and not the trees. Go look at some of the fruit trees on the farms in Fulton county and it is evident that they are literally being starved to death. Grass and weeds are per mitted to grow up and press compactly about the roots and lower part.of the trees with no loosening of the soil, nor any ap plication of manure. Can such trees be ex pected to yield much or good fruit? The soil needs stirring, wants the aid of invig orating fertilisers and pruning to divest the trees of superabundant wood.

There are a hundred rumors afloat of the most astounding char acter. and while nobody appears to know anything positively, yet everybody pretends to know something. And those who know least do most of the winking and blinking that is taken for a sure sign that "the devil is to be to play” and we are upon the eve of the explosion of something peculiarly hor rible and stinking. THE PREVIOUS REPORTS made by the joint spedal committee of the bouse and senate which investigated the alleged wild land frauds, and which reports were referred, with the voluminous testi mony taken, to the house special commit tee, have given rise to various opinions with reference to the standing of affairs in the office of the comptroller-general. Those who know Washington L. Goldsmith, his friends and acquaintances, cannot be lieve that he has been guilty of the grave wrongs which are whispered and hinted against him. They construe the reports of on straw, or worthless hay, or moulded fod der in a muddy barn-yard.

There is considerable excitement in comcquence of the British ministers interference with tbe Japanese quarantine regulations. The cholera prevails in the south of the empire and a strict quarantine has been ordered for Yoko- homa. The American minister ordered the Americans to comply with the regulations. The British minister asserts his right to break the quarantine. The German minis ter supports him. All other diplomatic representatives are indifferent except the Russian minister, who sides with the Uni ted States minister. The reception to ex-President Grant in Tokio was unprecedented in Japanese history. In addition to demonstrations by ^ tbe government, citizens have given lavish entertainments on a sumptuous scale. Every day and night there were fresh novelties for his diversion. General Grant had an audience with the emperor on July fourth. His majesty, alluding happily to the coincidence of the date, said that the sole obstacle to har mony was caused by the demeanor of Eng lish officials, who persistently keep aloof from General Grant, and decline to give salutes or recognition. General Grant, after visiting various points, -will sail for Yezo. He will start for America the last week in August. Imperial Acts. Pestii, August 2.—It . is officially an nounced that the emperor of Austria has accepted the resignation of Count Zichy, one of the Hungarian secretaries of state, who is accused of corruption in connection with the deferment of decorations. imperial decree haa been pub lished directing that a new law relative to the administration of Alsace-Lorraine shall come into force on the first of October next.

The sole of futures has been limited, and the tendency, as reported, of a downward nature. Local transactions with the exception of to-day (Saturday) have been very fair. The close of the Liverpool market for to-day haa hod tho effect to stop business to a large extent, and furthermore to have caused the rapid and unusual decline noticed upon the boards.

There is a deci :ed disposition on the part of mon- contracts. Boaton bos shipped out thus far 215,244 c-ses of goods more than last year, and 68,244 cases more than the same time last year. Reports from all sections sav that stocks of boots and shoes are comparatively lighr, and the salesmen from eastern and western, as well as southern jobbing houses are meeting with much success os far as sales are concerned, but find it diflicult to get a corresponding advance which they are compelled to pay. Boston’s shipments for the week foot up to &4.194 cases against 51,731 cases last week, and 42,844 cases the corresponding week of last y Tho New Y'ork l>oot and shoe market is repot less active.
