Ou their arrival at the. negroes house they found him standing in the door with a club in his hand aud on b»ing intormed by the of ficers that they desired his com pany to the county jail, he became inuignaut and swore by the great horn spoon that he would not go, and furthermore that he “would brain do fust one dat laid hands on him.” Bailiff Beard always on the al ert, played a bluffiing game on the koou by threatning to shoot him.’ In the mean time Major Enais ap proched the koon by stealth, and closed in on him. Then the fun commenced in earnest, the uegro began to buck, but the plucky young disciple froze on to him like grim death to a dfad “nigger,’’ The combatants were on a little verandah about s«veu or eight feet high, and in the ollie they both rolled off together but as usual the lawyer was on top, and by putting the iron foot of the law on the negroes abdo men he succeeded in knocking the oreaih out of him, and before the darkey could recover bailiff Beard bad the bracelets on his wrists. They then let him up and plac ing him between them, brought him to the country jail in triumph, where he now languishes in de feat. A- B.

We can confide “in the integri ty of purpose on the part of the national administration that all those great principles of financial relief and civil reform clearly set forth in the Chicago platform and pivoted on reform in our system of custom house taxation should have force and effect in the laws to be enacted by congress and in the conduct of every department of government.” Such is the lan guage of a vote of confidence, re cently given by a county demo cratic meeting, that every demo crat may cast. Under our fidelity to our prin ciples, our patriotic devotion to our country, and our party unity depend the success of our national party. Our state affairs demand our equal attention upon the same grounds. Believing that we will have a victory, both state and na tional. I am at your service. Clement A. Evans. ANNIE DELLE DOTS. A BREEZY EPI iTLE FROM A HUSTLER NAMED “TID. - ’ Ankie delle Ga, June 22. 1894, Dear Hustler, — Lounging under the shade of a. large spreading oak iomewha: after the fashion of a Newfound land, on a hot summer aftarnoon. I am looking over a field of grow" ing corn, and as the heat rises from mother earth aud as it rip ples ascend higher and higher me think I hear the poping of the newly made joints of corn. Looking in another direction I 'ey the smoke rising from an en gine and hear the familiar hum of a threshing machine ;I see the men busy in their respective places about the machine, the wagon moving the wheat towards tte farmyard ;and when looking in an other direction I s«e the plowman pushing bin mule onward stiring the soil before the young grass gels a headway in the cotton. This we®k has indeed been a busy one with us- Since the delightful rains of last Sunday and Monday our farmeis have been greatly encouraged, and today, I have no doubt but that there are no people in the grand old Empire State whose content mentor happiness is greater than o urs. Mr. Will Hudson Las been at tending court in Rome this week. Mr. Sam Johnson was to see his best girl Neou Mt. Alto, Wednes day. The watermelon crop at this time promises to be a splendid one. Bob Coldwell and his best girl are contemplating attending church at Bush Arbour Sunday. The blackberry crop is splendid and this completes a staple d inner which is greatly enjoyed noA-a days.

A large deltga tion of Romans will go out and b benefitted by having done so. * * ♦ Have you noticed.that it remained for the ‘ Evening Purity” to publish the dirty Chattanooga story? Well the Hustler or R®me does not pre. end to be a religious daily, but it does try, in its own wav, to make its self a welcome guest at every hearthstone in Koine —and it leaves these Chattanooga Times stories for its competitors to handle —and .it seems that they do it. • * < * President Henry Harvey, of the Rome Cotton Factory, tells me that bis plant is running on full time and that he has orders enough ahead to keep the Mills humming all summer. The Rome .Cotton Factory is one of the best in the South and under the ab e management es Henry Havey will continue in the \an of Southeru progress and piosperity. * * * I dropped ir.to Rhudy’s yesterday and was much surprised to see the change wrought in the appear ance of the store in such a short time Mr Rhudy moved a big slice of his stock to Atlanta to his big branch Louse on the first--but since then large shipments of new goods have arrived and Messers Sell Richards and Wink Lansdell have put the place in business shape—See for your self. * * * Ne t Alarm was turned in on Friday, All the same, Mr. meatery burned down, over in the Fourth ard.

If you want to see corn as is corn go out to Lytle’s and look over the fence es the old fair grounds. * A * Out of about 44 cases tried be fore Judge Turnbull’s City Court this week, Solicitor General Joe Nunnally has lost two cases, be fore ths jury aud two before his Honor, Judge Turnbull. This is a record breaker, even, for Solici tor Nunnally. When court ad journed yettjrday, the docKet had been swept in the most approved style and Judge Turnbull Solicitor Nunnally and the juries had won the commendation of every body save the crimiuiual classes —aud they were not taken ■ Charley Bass came in from his Coosa River Plantatation last eve ning, looking tame and hearty.
