M Folsom. ficrnetitnea—I may any very frequently bog« would ftray off ioio tbo river ewamp while young #&<1 go wild. Within tha ioa penetrable iestnesaca of onr southern awatnps they would increase and multiply to an alarm ing extent, and the plantation atock would be come thoroughly demoralized by them, and they would get to be regular marauders, break ing into the cornfields at night, then tearing down corn and eating as much as they chose, when they would betake themselrcs to the f we nip again. Early on a fine morning about the Aral October, Grandpa Bolton came out on the piasa and railed for Mentor. The old man waa aoon on hand, and, feeling that there was some new project on bend, 1 bung around to in vestigate tbo matter. “Mentor, come here end get a dram. We 1 have eomo rare sport today if Mage is trim." “Your bery good health, sab/' said the old man as be ewallowed the generous bumper of New England rum. “Ole Msje If all right, boss; an* I bin thinkin' tome time dat ef yo' wuz gwine to do any flag 'bout dem hogs yo' beltsb task' 'site 'bout it, fo* de time ran off mighty fis'.“ "Well, at soon as we get breakfast we'll go down to the river and ice If we can jump any o! 'em." I pricked up my ears, for I knew that a wild bog bunt waa up. “Granpa, couldn't I help?" I asked, think* ing that I would beaurer of gaining my paint If I tendered my services. “Help? Greet jewhilikinel What eould you do with a wild barrow with his bristles up?" "1 don't know, sir, but I cou!<J carry the strings to tie 'em with." 'Hat ha I" laughed grandpa, “That's a capital Idea. Well, X reckon you can go, but Jake say* you got scared at a ’possum under a clay root, and I consider you a poor soldier." I retired in confusion, but I was on htnd when Uncle Mentor harnessed old Beck to the lumbering cart and mounted grandpa on ol<f Dill, hi* favorite riding horae, with hia hog skin saddle with its low pommel, looked every way like a hunter to my unsophisticated eye. “Gome on, Msje," »nd the old hog dog leaped about and yelped for joy is the cnvaloade roil ed of) down the lane. 1 sat in the cart behind Uncle Mentor, end plied him with various questions regarding (he wild hog business, end be, grumbling good naturdly, entered into ell the little detaile, “A-b, child yo' do laok all hoys, yo* wants ter know all 'bout men's wo'k 'long w'en yo'too little tar do it, an'del es soon re yo' gits big 'nough yo' fits to lazy, an' xnaks out dat yo' dono fo'got bow ter do any Xing. “But how about wild bogs?" “Ob, bless yo’ h'a, well,day das gits oil a'ter do nice juicy sco’na, on* de sweet pine mas', an' bimeby dey gits kin' 'er sullen, an' doy gio o<>, guff! w'en yo’ Irowt do co'n tor 'om, an* lcx fing yo* know doy done gone wil', mu' act up fo' doyse'f in do rivah swamp.

J ml at this time we came to the edge of the river awump. We callod it the Half Moon Blufl, from tbo fact that the sand ridgo ran the swamp above end curved around egainat tbo face of the hill in a beautiful cres cent, entering the swamp 500 yards below. Grandpa had done fastened old Bill to a stout •appling, and Bock waa soon tied to a swinging limb, Icesuse she rubbed the bridle oil so bad, and then we started for the swamp. About twenty feet below us flowed the beau tiful wine-colored water, nad under the wit- ions, across ths stream, there glistened a snowy rend bsr. Where we entered tha gloomy swamp a dry legcon led oil between two solid walls of black gums, water oaks and tupeloes. In narrow vlecea their Interlacing branches met over trd end water-lined trunks of the trees appear hesuUfully fantastic Tho blue berries of the black gums hung thick among tho variegated foliage, and the drooping branches of the tape lose bt re great clusters ol ths groon, yellow and •carlet fruit. Ho pretty it was that I would bite • one now and then, and mako a wry fsoe at (ti sharp acid flavor. "Ere wey dey bin, boss, Jeminil W'at er tisek.

Uncle Mentor came Mrjetasiistanceisa twinkling, and after greet tussle between grandpa, Mentor, Ma|e ard the black barrow,the latter wss vanquish ed. As they drew the Isst knot in the stout leather throng, and told old Mejeto “oo done, bow," 1 decided 1 would descend from my lolly perch, and was terribly shocked whoa I found that in myexcitement I bad not climbed up the tree at all, but wae standing flat on tussock, clasping the sappliog la my arms if my life depended on it. Then they a sir pole aid placed it between the lastoainqi his Ires and his body, and by taking caci er.d they succeeded in getting him to high lord and then tolhec&rt. “Bora, ace di« ma'Jt in 'e eah?

But although we hunted till dinner time we found no more and had to return with bo other spoils than old “Blackie." “Nevah min', ole fellah," said Uncle Men tor, ss we drove home, “yo' done cuttin, do big Ike 'mong de hogs now.

MURDER IN THE MOUNTAINS. The Tccoa News has .the following Interesting st or j: Tbe Henderson murder, which we took oocailon to notice iu onr last Issue, Is one of tbe most abominable affairs that has ever transpired fn Habersham county since our reoollectlon. For that u won we desire to correct several grave er rors of tbe press In noting tbe affsfr. Tho Gaines- vllic Houthron mentions Henderson as being e revenue informer. This Is a mistake. Jasper '•--Person waa anything else but aa Informer, irbtion this fact to let the world know - ibe people of north Georgia do not con sider that tbe fact of a man bologna la farmer will tuse Dii r, the Informer, had been shot, or so suspected by some one he bad reported. Is no reason that the next man who meets so unhappy a fate should have his death attributed to the same cause. Neither does any or all the evidence In the case reveal that Henderson wss fcslled to the door and shot down, or that he had beaten his wife so near to death a day or so previous aa slated by|tho fiontbron. The Advertiser is la error ..when it Includes William Dodd and Mrs. Ben Dodd among tbe arrested parties. No arietta hart been made except tbo P irtiis bound over. HUH worse. Ths Augusta bronlcle startled us by the statement that a;msn named Crane had committed the foul murder. Mr. V. referred tons the murderer, It a respected citizen of Clarksville, is the oldest lawyer in lltti- ertham county and waa leading counsel lor tho defendants at the preliminary Investigation Jasper Henderson was shot down last Monday •< n fug one week ago, at the house of his broth er in-law. Twelve Buckshot enterod his body from behind, just about the lower extremity of the ribs. He fell face downward, and died with out uttering a word. The evidence before the coroner's Jury showed that he was shot abont two v »- *" * * * d been at Ben Dodd's ore he was shot; ths „ bo present except Mrs. Henderson, his wife; Mrs. Dodd, hts mother-in*law and Mrs. Ben Dodd, who wei In bed sick. The two former testified that they brought hfs body Into the house soon after tbe shot was fired, while the latter testified that it Aid that ho heard tbe report of a gun, and that half an hour atter BiA Ilcndereon pasted his house. BUI Henderson (csUflcd that he went to ku Dodd's house Monday evening, and that be went from there by Ansley's. and It wa* about one quarter ol a mile and would tike about After n minutes to travel It. and that he saw noslgnaof a murder and heard nothing of it; esld hire, flsjal hogs, boy, hog I Blok'em, « man," and away went tbe Intelligent dog _ the trail. But it wes a cold eeent, and he got n long but slowly. This gave me au oppor tunity to watch the crested blue jeye ae they gceeipped and chattered among the aesru trees, end the little tiny ewamp canarlee, with their pufly yallow bodies and the little black hood tied conqueUtehly under their ohins. As we pasted a little pool an Indian pullet, a bluish purple water bird that Hite about like a shadow, Perching on a branch in eoma tbicket •nd poking tte long n#ck out to Investigate the surroundings, ll seldom utters a sound, and its movements are as noiseless at nshadow. But its bright yellow eyes are always on the lookout, and you seldom surprise it. Then 1 ■aw a great horned owl with hie speckled body iwrcbed bolt upright on the lowor limb of a Dig tupelo, hie horn-like tufts erect, and hie Btartight eye staring down at us in evident pernlsxiiy. He turned hie head elowiy as we passed, keeping those solemn eyes fixed upon us, without moving his body at all. "Ef y ' dee wanter hill a owl dont'n waa'in yo' an. mernetion des keen'im tu'ala' 'roun' an' en roun','twel’e heed, mot'clean facin' 'e tail, mu'dru Ae$ mako er long leap, an' V try to fi ller jo'so suddint lack twere brek'e necks eo dey,', said Unele Mentor, but just then old Msj* became very active aud set oil through an almost imnsasable ihickst of palmetto aud brambles, and iu a few minutes we heerd the ■cA; gf.fl! gofl" of a stsriled hog and then old Msje larking f ;riou»ly as he geve chase. We rsn down the o, en lagoon, end nrrived at a bend just time enough to get a glimpse of the great black beaet with hia long tusks, flap- J 'irg rare and bristling hair, as be rushed rom the covert, crossed the openlMand K plunged in the tangled swamp belew. We al l lied st the top of our voice#, and Uncle rntor ran down toward tha river while grandpa turned out so as to reach the open woods and as ha waa too fat to run fast I fot* lewed him. Atter tripping up over a thorny brsmble that scratched my coins pretty bad ly, 1 emerged from the ewamp iust at grandpa etcpi cd to catch his breath and to send out a * nil . cd to calc itartling whoop of encouragement to Maie, who was having the hog away down In tun swamp Away we wen; and in five minutes wrrw in a little opening in the center of which was a dense thicket of thorny vines and blither. Old Mnje was jumping arouud the thicket barking, and we’could just discern the the dim outlines of the great snaggy monster, end hear the champing of bis muscuiur jews and the deep growls from his muffled throat. Just then Uncle Mentor rente up fro*n the other side and cried, "sick 'im Mqje, take him boy I" end threw a chunk into the thicket to attract the bog. Msje made a wild laap and with a harsh cry the game broke cover end ran between grandpa's legs,completely upset ting him, ana scaring me so had that I shin- ned np a stripling tad slid down again, white the hog and the dog were etruggliag together, film g the air with the wildest shrieks and house. At the end of this trail a linchpin and piece of tobacco were found, which were fdenttflod positively as belonging to tho deceased, and the testimony of. Frank Coker was that he saw Henderson with tbe linchpin s* out 11 o'clock of the dsy of the killing. This Is a brief aaetch ol the leading features of the is. A number ol more facts we have not spice y- live. In view of these facts, Mrs. Jsiper Hen- de■non, wife, and Mrs. Dodd, mother-in-law of ths murdered man, were arrested and brought before Justices y.nrhcrr and Mult trior a preliminary trial. The testimony of lhe| defense before the court, of Inquiry showed that Bob Morris had bor lowed a ahot nun the morning ol Jbo killing, as he safd to go squlrrl- limiting Another witness, Mrs. Bill Dgdd, tee- Uhed that Morris paaaod her house late Mom* eve rtf ng with a shotgun and told her that no t THE FLEET RED FOX.
