The annual parade of our Fire de partment came off last Wednesday. The engine, truck and hose reel were gaily decked in flowers and the fire men were in high spirits. At half past ten A. m., after inspection bv the mayor and aldermen, Mr. W.* W. Lumpkin made a timely and appro priate address complimenting the lire- men upon their handsome appearance and the value of the department to the city*. In the afternoon the fire men re-assembled and had a drill ex ercise, that called forth the admira tion of our citizens by the rapid and skillful manner in which they handled their engine, hose and ladder. At night an entertainment at Amusement Hall closed a proud day for our lire- The commissioners, L. H. Thomas, Esq., G. W. Caraker, Esq., and W.’ R. Fenn, Esq., appointed by Judge Lawson to recount the ballots and re port the result to the Superior Court, met last Thursday. The anti-prohi- bitionists were represented by Col S. H Jamison of Macon, W. L. Jeckson, Esq., of this city, and Col. W. B. Wingfield and Judge J. S. Turner of Eatonton. The prohibitionists were represented by Capt. C. P. Crawford, Col. Miller Grieve and J. C. Bell of the local bar, and Hon. W. F. Jenk ins of Eatonton. When the court was organized, Capt. Crawford arose and plead to the jurisdiction of the court, stating that Mr. Fenn t one of the commissioners that formed the court, was a plaint iff in the case, in as much as he had signed the petition to the superior court calling for this same court to be formed, which, Capt. Crawford argued made him one of the plaintiffs in the case and being such, lie could not be judge in his own cause. Col. Jemison argued the point for his side and was followed by* Hon. W. F. Jenkins, in support of the point. The court overruled it. Col. Jemison then argued that its only* duty* was to simply recount the ballots,‘with out hearing any evidence and report the result, of the count to the next term of the Superior Court. Capt. Crawford had a different construc tion of the law, and argued bis inter pretation. The court ruled that the Act contemplated that they should hear evidence as to the illegality of votes. The court adjourned over un til Tuesday morning, when Cooper’s precinct will be taken dp. Wind Storm.—About 5 o'clock last Saturday afternoon a dark and threatening cloud was observed in the north-west, and active prepara tions for the approaching storm be gan. Doors and windows were closed, merchants took intheir display goods, our country friends went to look after their stock and vehicles standing on our streets, pedestrians sought shelter and there was a general hurrying to and fro, while a strong wind swept our streets raising such a cloud of dust that vision was obscured. Dark ness settled over our city* and many of our people awaited in trembling ap prehension the results of a storm that threatened to be serious in its conse quences. The blow, which was of short duration, was followed by* a shower of rain, and then all was se rene again. Some fencing and a few trees were blown down, a few window glass broken, Ac., but no serious dam age was done so far as v. e have heard.
