Ho was tho oldest son of E. 1*. Pearson, of Lnmpkin, Ga. The circumstances seem to be about as follows: Homer complained of being sick and his father had just left him to sat hi* supper, when ho heard the report of gnn. Hushing to him he found him lying oi tho front porch in his night clothes breathing his last. The gun with which lie shot himself was found near by. No reason is known for the act. Ho was a bright and clever young man, and had been teaching school near Lnmpkin. R. L. Reaves, who waa shot by J. V. Murray during commencement week at Athens, waa out riding Monday, and he Is now considered out of danger. Old Uncle Billy Toombs died Monday. He woe sovcral years tho senior of his master,Gen eral Toombs, whom he has served all his life as a !*>dy servant. He died at the Toombs homestead, witere he has always lived. He re fused to go freo.when emancipated, declaring that ho intendod to “livo and die with old marster.'

Rev. W. F. Floyd, presiding elder of tlie Way cross district (Methodist), is president. However, it cannot, strictly speaking, be called uii organization. It embraces, without oven a ngistetof membership, a large number of miulst'eis and lay members, main aud female, voluntarily SMnciated in.the maintenance and spread of tho old Wesloyan doctrine of holi ness. llcuce these semi-annual meetings are solely in the luterest of personal religious ex perience with sanctification for e specialty. Tho simplest statement of their teaching, is that by present trust in a present Saviour, con tinuous and yet momentary, the Christian may be kept, by tlie power of Hod, from all sin* The September msoting, bringing together a Urge munl-er of minbn rs and members from many sections of the state, w ill be an occasion of nuusuai interest to tlie churches in this vicinity. Augusta Chrofllcle; A Carolina farmer by tlie name of Ivin cuiue to town yesterday with one of his pockets literally filled with rattle- auakc rattles. A count actually revealed one hundred and five ef the dangerous ornaments. He htated that they were tho trophies of one massacre which had occurred on his plantation tho day before. While eewted on e log in a forest near his home he heard a rustling noise In tha leaves near hirajand, looking down, saw a monster tattler making hte way to a thick clump of bushes near by, which seemed to be* alive with animal motion. Having his gun at hand, he raised It and fired at ins reptHe. After writhing a few momenta it expired. The ground, however, around the clump of bushce immediately became the scene of a deafening chorus of buzzing sounds. Taming hte eyes In the direction, hte blood was almost frozen in.hi* veins as he beheld nine enormous rattle snakes with their tails in the air and their bodice colled lu an attitude of battle. Throw ing his gun to his should* r, he fittd time after timo Into the writhing mass until tlie noise cessed. Ue then made an investigation, and found that he had killed ten of tho biggest rattlesnake* ever seen in Carolina. Mr. Ivia prizes the rattles very highly, and says he in tends te keep them as a voucher for the truth- fulaeee ef his make story. ltaaUM Atl.tua, »>..Rumor.

From the Jonesboro, Ga, News On last Monday about noon, while the children of Mrs. Anna Malone's school, at Bethel school house, wore enjoying their noon recess at speech making, ole., Mr. 8. A. Mann, who lives near tho schoolhouse. was coming from Mr. Wliuley's still, and being in a drunk en condition anu reeling from ono aide of tho road to tlie other, lie heard tho children laughing, end supposed they were laughing at him. Tills so enraged Mr. Mann that lie went to his house, and got hte gun, a double-barrel brecrh-loading shot-gun, and returned to take hte revenge for tho supposed insult to him. Heelng several of the echool boys running to wards the schoolhouse, for the school bell had Just rung, he deliberately aimed at the boy* nnd fired twice. The boys were badly frightened, and it te useless to say made tracks rapidly. Two of the boys, Buddie Tucker and J. K. Hanes were struck by the shot but were unhurt. Mr. Mann'e little girl, eeolng her father again loading, ran up, and, with the assistance of others, got the gun from her father. Mrs. Mann arrived, and Mr. Mann was taken hojfte. It te a matter of congratulation that no harm resulted from the shots. Mr. Mann’s conduct can only be explained upon the assumption of too much Whaley liquor. Mr. Mann is highly connected, and his friends are greatly mortified by bte conduct. No legal steps havo been taken concerning the matter, but it te to bo hoped that Mr. Mann will be sufficiently pun ished to bo made to believe that whisky should not be manufactured in Clayton county; nnd we sincerely trust that enough of the true hills now standing against Whnloy will bo pushed at the Boptomber term of the court to enable him to close bte still. From the Augusta, Ga., Chronicle. Whilst the crop prospect te not so good In variousssetionsof the state, the Augusta fac tors claim that tho receipts cannot at the wont be less than 200,000 bales. The Clironicle's ar ticle showing that Augusta 1s not'ouly the host intend cotton market in the south, but a for midable rival to the sea porta, has been appre ciated by tlie country merchants and farmers, and the outlook te that from the crop prospects and tlio sfforts made by our merchants Au- ta’a receipts will easily roach 200,000 bains. } reports from most sections oome in good, but wo wish to givo both aides. Wo get tho following from a gentloman who has just returned from a business trip over the Char lotte, Columbia and Augusta railroad: “That crop prospects aro not so good as tho J it-Al observer would suppoae. Tlio rains ■fug the last few weeks have caused con- c raulo rust in some places. In others the plant has run \to vroca, and while in apota it nos a fresh, green appearance, a close examina tion will show very little fruit. The farmers, while expressing a great dell of disappoint ment at the crop not coming up to their ex pectations of a few weeks since, eay that the result will probably lie as good or a shade bet ter tlmn last year. There te no question but that tho seasons cf tho lost thirty days havo materially damaged tho cotton outlook in this section." All new cotton that comes into Augusta te taken easily at 9 cents. Tlio Savannah quota tion for middling is 8 13-16. Augusta still leads. A gentleman who has recently vlsltod the Sweetwater creek region along the line of tho East Tennessee,^Virginia and Georgia railroad, on the other side of the Chattahoochee river, gives an account of tho discovery of natural gas on the farm of Mr. Edward Brown. The discovery was made accidentally. It is said that two negroes who were hired by Mr. Brown were ” few days since. They] of between 10 and 50 feet, when they i two negroes wno were nircu i were digging a well a They had reached a deflth d 50 foot, when they struck ■oft, sandy rook dopoeita which they removed without any trouble. This formation was not very thick, liofrever. After going down a few feet further the stratum bccatno harder, and it liccamo necessary to drill it in order to romove it. While one of the diggers was delving strenuously, hte drill got out of fix, and he naturally terrified. Tho death of Mary Ann Todd, relict of Henry Todd, of Darien, which occurred a short time ago, recalls the provisions of tho wilt of that remarkable and honored colored oftlzen of McIntosh county. Henry Todd, wlioae death occurred about a year and a half ago, was the richest colored man In the state. Ills wealth wa* estimated at over 8200,000. After jU wife for her life, After tho death of both tte wifo nnd his half brother, Francis >711- tems. the executors are, within three years i'rom the neath of the last to depart this life, 1q reduce the rcsldtmiy estate to cash, of which lie directs the following disposition: "To tho Presbyterian church of Darien, Ga., ten per centum of said cosh, and to the Colored Bap tist church of Darien also ten per centum of ■aid cash, and five per centum each to tho following churches In said city of Darien, Ga., to-wit: The Mothndtet Episco pal church south, the Methodist Episcopal church for the colored poople, the African MuthodUt Episcopal church, the white peo- p o's Episcopal church, and the colored peo ple's Eptecoiuil church. Tho various bequests obo paid over by my executors as soon as I ractteach and without any unnoccassry de- ay, to the proper officers of such organiza tions, to be by such officers so used as they may severally deem best for tho good of said churches ana the advancement of our Savior's cause in those brandies of the visible church, und I do front my inmost heart invoko the blessings of Hod the Father, God tho Hon nnd Hod the Holy Ghost upon these bequests, that they inav be sanctified to tho accomplish ment of good through the merits of His Bon and our blessed Itodeemor—Amen.” Tlie children of Savalll nnd Juanita Hernandos, Frank Cardlno and William Garvin, are tho other heirs who now como in for the remainder of the estate which was devised to Todd's wife for the term of her life. Tho half brothers, Francis William, died before the testator. Therefore tho executors may now begin the work of reducing the residuary In terest of Mnry Ann Todd to cash, and in three cars the churches of Darien will receive about .>100,000 in the coin or currency of the country. Todd was a “Churchman," but, It te seen, lie did not confine hte gifts to tho household of hte own faith. Ute partner In the milling bus iness was a white man, Mr. Henry Hunting don. Todd also did a large banking business, and was always known for hte liberality. He constantly lent without taking note or collat eral. His wife was singularly esteemed, and enjoyed tha unexampled mark of favor among the member* of her raoe that the ladisaol of Darien visited her socially. She was an ludustrions woman, aud had amaasod quite a fortune in hor own right. Rut it would appear that ehe had little confidence in banks or banker* in spite of her hus band's avocation, nor did sho believe in the sanctity and trustworthiness of last wills aud testaments. After her husband's demise she was forced to bring a bill in equity to ob tain possession of certain personal property. A box marked with Henry Todd's name was deposited in the vaulU of the Southern bank of tha city. It waa taken possession of by the executed and waa found te contain filO.OuO In bank notes. This box aba recovered. Her leal estate she deeded in escrow to friends and relatives, not leaving her lands for the law to distribute. This good couple illustrated In their lives all the beat troths and charities of the Christian religion, and descended to hon ored graves, which * I of women and the yells of children were ter- rible. Finally matters were quteted down, i and It wm found,strongely enough,Jtbat no one ‘ was hurt at nH. Order was restored and the i fuuer ceremonies were concluded at the grave. The remains were followed to tho grave by | the Knights of Labor and the Salvation Army, I of both of which he w as a member, j Mrs. Jacks' n died at Nashville last Tuea- : day, aged elghty-one, leaving two children, j Colonel Andrew Jackson, of West Point, who I was an artillery otlicer in the late war on the southern side and inode reputation, and Mrs. Dr. John Lawrence. One sou, Samuel, was killed at CJiJcamagua. Mrs. Sarah Jackson, now remembered . hut few peoplo, was for four years—or nearly four years—tho moat prominent lady of the land, the intetresA of tho w hite house. About the commencement of General Jackson* second term, his adopted son, Andrew Jack- son, Jr., married Mias Sarah York, of PhilSr dolphin, a young lady of accomplishments, of good family and great personal beauty. TI adopted son, who was a nephew of Mi Jackson, brought hte young bride tatho whim bouse, where she wa* received by tlie president, who was a widower, Mrs. Jackson having died after his first election and before ho became president. She proved to be a most devoted daughter and loving wifo. G< was a peculiar man. The lose oi ms wue lour years before had changed Ills whole life. All Jite letters—letters to members of tho family and friends—showing that during hte first term he was grieving ovor his great loss. But when the time expired, the old general came back to the hermitage. In time he died, le family a fine estate, family were In strait son died in 1867, find - v tiful bride, the mistress of tho white house— the old heroe’s greatest comfort end solace in hte old age—pawed away at tho age of 81. She will be burled tomorrow at 11 o’clock. The funoral will take place at tha hermitage. Tho simple wreath of immortelles 4**.a4 lay on the coffin of Mrs. Sarah Jaokson, was a fit offering to the silver haired woman who, for fifty years, had lived at theHennitage, a model of exalted womanhood. Long lines of vehicles from Nashville and the surround ing county passed out the Lebanon turnpike, so that a great crowd was present at the funer al. Tho old families for miles in every direc tion were present. A sense of gonnine sorrow was everywhere present. This woman'e death severing the last Ue that hound th< day to that past of which Andrew was tho groator part to Tennesssee. The grid of tho domestic®*, nearly all of whom live® at tho Hermitage since childhood, was most touching. Two, Alfred Jackson aud his wife, were the body servants of the president and his wifo, and their lamcntatlcns wore pitiable in the ex treme. Rev. J. D. McNcilly, assisted by Rev. Air. Moore, conducted the funeral exercises. Ho reviewed the life of the deceased and em phasized tho beauty of Christianity which it exemplified. She had survived to tne ripe ago of 82, and for a half centuiy had been an active member of the church. Standing in the twi< light of worlds a few days before her death, she had used tho words of tha text, and there by given ovidenco of the fullness of her faith. Tho apoaker remarked that it wa* unnecessary to review the historic life of tho doebiteed, bnt the fact that she had occupied au oxaltdd bra- tion among men and had preserved to > tW8 , fH!D J ■*' * “ “ ‘ Christian cat the beauty of the dit tian faith tmdhitd’ Slowly the cortege *v**ruled its way along the petlis of the garden to the spot where tho dead president lay.

The fact that Royal Baking Powder 1b, In all respects, the best baking powder offered to the publio has been established beyond question. Prof. H. A. Mott, when employed by the U. S. Govern ment to analyze the various baking powders of the market to determine whioh was the best and n\pst economical, after an extended investigation, reported in favor of the Royal and it was adopted for government use. Prof. Mott has continued his examinations of baking powders sold at the present day, and now affirms it as his deliberate judgment, arrived at after most thorough research and a careful examination of the principal, brands of the market, that the Royal is undoubtedly the purest and most reliable baking powder offered to the public. Prof. Mott, in his recent report, says: “The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure, foi^I have so fonnd it in many tests made both for that company and the U. S. Government. “ I will go still farther and state that, because of the facilities that company have for obtaining perfectly pure cream of tartar, and for other reasons dependent npon the proper proportions of the same, and the method of its preparation, the Royal Baking Powder is undoubtedly the purest and most reliable baking powder offered to the publio.
