Dr. IV. a.

In 1U9. he willed It to Dr. ' Morgan's father, the late Thomas Morgan, of this county. In 1877, he died, tearing It to Its prison owner. The gourd must hare been taken from the rlne abont 1(97, making it 1(7 yeara old. The only doubt about Its age arises from the want of positive knowledge aa to the length of time It was possessed by the great-great grandparent The above faelasre reo.rded In the family Bible. The doctor aaya money could not buy the retie. Sunday schools In Gainesville are flourishing. Tho Methodist Sunday school has 3(7 pupils, the Baptist 3IS and tho Presbyterian M. This is ex elusive of the colored schools. judge J. W. Kirkpatrick, of PeKalb, has tbreo acres of extra line wheat,which Is being destroyed by birds. More than fifty birds bare been killed in the Held within the last three days. Perry Jvurnal: The clllsens of Henderson and vicinity are engsgid In a movement tobnflda new school house at Henderson. The subscription already amounts to a thousand dollars, and an other meeting will be held next Saturday, when It la expected the subscription will he Increased to twelve hnodred dollars or more. A nrgro child six years old was burned to death in a cabin on the farm of Mr. V. W. Matthews, near ???checonnce, Houston county. The father and mother of the child went out to work that morntrg tearing the child alone In the cabin sitting on a stool near the hearth.

It lived flvo or six hour*. In bis charge to the grand Jury of Wilkes county, Judge Pottle, referring to the recent events tn Cin cinnati, declared that the eutbreak there may be repeated anywhere, The people shculd feel that the law It supreme. When a great crime bad been committed, only penial J istlce, In the estimation of the publle, had been administered. ???Wild Justice" sought to remedy the failure of legal Jus tice. Mob violence la no correction for legal wrong on tho part of Juries. 1 know of no offense for which the law does not furnish an ample remedy. Unfortunately, the substantia men of the country do not throw their Influence on the side of the law???service on Juries should not be a burden, but a duty. It Is not to be dlrgulsed, that the public are becoming dissatisfied with tho result of criminal trial, and this dlisallalactlon Is the cause of these popular commotions If a mi- gautln tho courts, offer bribes to a Juror, or even extends to him the common rights uf hospitality during tho time of servlee It l?? made a felony un der our taw. The fltewarl county grand Jury rccommouda that: ???the peep'e of Ibis county should uan their Influr enco to suppress the great evil of rctalllug spiritu ous and malt liquors In this ooumy and request thst that tho oraluary Itsue no more license for that purpose. . . treasurera balance In ihe treasury of 1191M; outstanding orders agstnsl tba county amountlug to $1,370; leaving a balance of 11,079.(3 sgslnat me couuiy. Tho charge of Judge Willie, In opening Musco- gee superior court, deserves lobe claaaod asanlm portent slalo paper. He touches trenchantly upon many of the evils by which society lsbeatt and formulates Ihe lsw In such a manner as not to be misunderstood. As to tho Importance of the grand jury ho ssld: Tho law requires that Ihoy consist of tho most ex- pcrtccccd, luu-mu--i.t at ,1 upright meu tn theoom mULliy, for to them wo must look for the suppres sion of crime and the supervision ot county nova eminent. A grant!

Go Into* community where theHabbath day la not observed, whom parties oontngatearound drinking aaloona aud drinking homes, whim the officers at# careless, Indifferent and Inefficient, and theta you will ffud a county whose g, end Jurors have not oomo up to tho to- qurementa ol ihe law, The carrying of concealed weapons la strongly condemned, ivtn officer* being compelled to cany tbrlr weapons so that they may be teen of all men, ???More homicides are committed by reason of tho violation of this section of tho code," said the Judge, "ibau almost any section of the law. Pis tols and whisky ara Ure return of more crime In Uro state of Georgia than any other two things. Tho one, whisky, is theoonstint companion of tho vag abond, The other Is the bosom friend of Ihe cows srd." On Runday tippling ha says: If a man compiles with the law be may keep a tippling bouse. Hla days In tho week he may keep It open, but the law says when the seventh arrlvea It shall he closed and what It miwna by twins olo*??d la that ovary ae on* to u shall ba closed.

Thts violation ot this law ???t In selling on the Sabbath day, bur It Is In kreplog the house open on the Habbath day. As to selling llqnor to minora: Another section: "No person or persons, by Mmself or another, rball sell or cause to be sold or furnished, or permit any other person or per sons In hla, her cr their imp ay, to sell or tunrish any minor or minors aplriiunua, or Inlnslcaihig, or mallltquoieofany kind, without Hist obialmug written authority from tho intent or guardian of aneh minor," A few yean ago the law did not re quire this written eonieul of the parent or guardian, and when a man was prose cuted tor sailing to a minor, he almost Invariably met the prosctmUon with Ure defruae that he didn't know that he was vlolsilug the law: that the young man told him that ha bad tha content ot hla parents or guardian, that he behaved he was u-lllrg him the troth, and them was ne Inlen- Uoe on hu pert to violate the taw; aud was almost Invariably acquitted on that plea. The legislature saw the nemelty of a change, and heu passed Ibis act that requires Ihe consent parent cr guardian In order to excuse furnishing e minor, to be In writing. There cm be no dodging of It when it Iklu wiling, and unless a mauceu ???how tba written consent et Ihe parent or guardian Uieio la no trouble In flndlng him guilty. But It he can show tha written content ol the parent or guardian, then there Is no trouble In making bla at tense. Yon may meet amen on the street and notify him???"here te my eon; 1 authorise you to iskt him tn and sell him a ditch ot beer:" yet It hedoee It hole u gutliy ol a violation ot tba law aa Utouth you bad never spoken to him In refer aece to It. In order to cicoc him tor famishing ??? minor, tba consent mast be tn writing by the pe tent or guardian. ??? W H Early, of Lumpkin county.

Maine, which wss expected to revolutionize the agricul ture of New England, has been sold, and Its ma chinery is to be carried to New Orleans to be need In working np the cane of Louisiana. The rchemo of Inaugurating a beet-sugar lndusrry in central New York has also been abandoned. It la estimated that abont 94,000.000 has been sunk In beebengtr experiments In this country. Much Is still written however, abont the wonderful success of the beet-sngar Industry In France, Germany, and other European countries It la certain that the Industry has become an important one. It Is estimated that about two mlUlou teres of land are devoted to the production of sngar beets In the various countries of the continent of Europe. The bnilnesa has been encouraged In denMly popu lated countries for various reasons, hut principally because It furnishes employment to women and children whe aro obliged to work In tbe field*. Hand work is required to thin and weed tbe young plants, to out off the tops, and to prepare the roots for Ihe factory. Oecnpttlons that give employment to many people aro very desirable In countries where land is high and the population lx dense. We hive conditions exactly the reverie of there In this country. Land lx chexp and plenty and the population la scattered. Little hex ever been pub lished to show that beat xogar production la very profitable in the countries where most attention Is given to 1L In meat countries on the continent of Europe manufacturers are well satisfied with a bas inets that pays six per cent on the capital that Is Invested In It.

Tux Hennepin canal project la again before con- gram. IU projectors want 1300,000 with which to begin the work of licking Ihe groat lakes aud tha Mississippi together with a ship canal. The ultl- mate oost of the big ditch la put at 84.500,0(0, bnt it is more likely to be 120,010,000. The route of tbe proposed canal extends from Bock Island on the Mississippi river eastwatd to Hennepin on the Illinois river, a dlstanco of 65 miles. From tho Mississippi to tho summit level the distance will be forty mllcc, and nine locks will be required In this part of the work. From the summit to Hennepin tho distance will be 29 miles, and In this part of Ihe work nineteen locks wlU be needed. The cost wa- estimated ton years sgo at t( 600 00c. There Is now in me a canal from Lako Michigan, at Chicago, westward to La Belle, on tbs Illinois river.
