v THE ORE A T COMMONER.
Alexander H. Stiphenb is Dead.
Mr. Stephens died at his mansion in
Atlanta on last Sunday morning at
three o’clock. He was indeed the peo.
pie’s man, Georgia's Great Commoner,
her greatest state sman and her grand¬
est man. But he is no more, his brill¬
iant light is quenched and Georgia is
exceedingly sad. Others have died be¬
fore him,oth er great and good men, but
in our opinion, no death in the hist ory
of our State has ever so deeply moved
this commonwealth. Pre-eminently high
in intellect, ranking with the ablest
men of his time and of any country,in
letters, philosophy', politics, and law,his
work will survive him for all time. As
a patriot, who with indomitable spirit,
devoted his life to liis country’s good,
Mr. Stephens was our nonparie]
There was something inexpressibly
touching,tender and pat hetic about the
hero who has just died. Born with a
constitution that was ext remely weak,
lighting with disease and sickness
from his very cradle to the day of his
death, he, however by the force of his
unconquerable will overcame every
obstacle, preserving throughout the
whole course of his life an equanimity
of temper and an affability of disposi¬
tion that perhaps have never been
equalled.
LABOR.
There is a crying demand for labor,
labor, in Lincoln county. Letus have
more labor here. Hardly a fourth of
our excellent soil is tilled. Some o!
our very best lands are annually turn¬
ed out. Much of the richest capital
that we ought to reap a large interest
from is thus lying idle and unproduc¬
tive. Every inducement that a coun¬
try can afford is ofo ed here for good
labor. And the cry is let us have more
labor.
General D. M. DuBose was burried
5 q Washington on Saturday evening
last.'
The election for Governor will take
place the 24th, day of April and the
Legislature will convene May the 9tb,
by order of Governor Boynton.
The funeral of Alexander H. Ste¬
phens took place last evening in At¬
lanta. In the history of Georgia and of
the whole country nothing has ever
equalled in it grandeur and impressive
cess. A full report of it will appear
in the next issue of the News.
Judge Pottle went fishing the other
day and while out at sea in his bateau
he determined to change his sport into
a whaling expedition. The Judge is a
good diver and amused himself at odd
times in diving, with his clothes on for
some of the big fish that swim in the
bosom of the ocean. Among other
things he caught a whaling duck.
Captain Dwight the cheif engineer
is at work plaining his stakes in Lincoln
County. His delay was occasioned by
the numerous surveys he was compell¬
ed to make, experimentally, before any
practicable route could be fixed upon
and he has tried to locate the line as
he advances, We understand that
about twenty-five miles is now definite¬
ly located. Work will therefore com¬
mence just as soon his profile and re
.•port are presented. The directors
hold a meeting in Augusta to-day and
will order the grading to begin at once
Because a man is eloquent he is not
necessarily great, far from it. He may
be able to sway the popular assemblage
by his glowing, silvery tongue, by his
superb pictures ai heroism, virture,
honesty and patriotism and at the
same time hU conduct may stamp him
his oountry’s greatest enemy. The
people of the United States give too
much and too indiscriminate heed to
what is commonly called eloquence and
allow stein facts and sober truths to be
discounted too much by far. Emory
Speer has actually been called a great
young man. It is true, he can talk,
and loudly and eloquently, and he is
great, if that can make him bo.

IIon. H. J. Lang, Vice-Pres’t.
Lincolnton, Ga.,
Mv Dear Sir :—The Board of Di¬
rectors will meet 12 o’clock m., at the
Company’s office on Friday 9th. inst.,
lor the purpose of receiving the Engin¬
eer’s report and for taking such action
as may be necessary for grading etc
Come if possible. Yours most truly,
J. P. Verdery,
Pres’t. A. E. & C. Ii. R., Co.
Col. Lang is now in Augusta at the
meeting of the Directors. We may now
say the work is fairly begun and all is
well.
IIon. James S. Boynton president
tl\e Senate is by virtue of his
now the Governor of Georgia. The
Atlanta Constitution says:
HOW A NEW ELECTION SHALL BE ORDKR
* ED.
The law provides that after the death
of the governor, the president of the
senate acting as governor, shall order
an election for governor, to fill out the
unexpired term. This election shall
be ordered in ‘‘not less than 30 nor
more than GO davs” from the death of
the governor. At the same time the
president of the penate acting as gov¬
ernor shall call the legislature together
in special scssiou. This session shall
be held in not more than 15 days after
the election of the governor’s successor,
and shall be held for the specific pur¬
pose of receiving and counting the
votes cast at that election and declar¬
ing the result, or if no election ha?
been made by the people to elect a
governor in joint session. Having per¬
formed this specific duty the legislature
will adjourn and the govern or-elect
will serve out the unexpired term.
ft 13 WILL.
Mr. Stephens made his will some
time ago.” He leaves $10,000 In money
to the children of his late brother, Judge
Stephens, and the rest of his estate,
baring a few minor bequests, to his
nephew, Colonel Jno. A. Sephens.
What his estate will foot up depends
largely on the sale of lits new “History
of the United States.” He made about
$30,000 on “The War Between the
States” and his new bo< k is selling
well. Above his b( quests his estate w'll
probably pay $10,000.

Goshen, Ga., March 5th-, 1SS3.
Editor Lincolnton News.
I notice in the Gazette that. Henry
Hill suggests that the A. E. & C. Ii
R., be built, running westof themonn
tain into Wilk6s county and striking
the ridge which he says will take it to
a spring branch just back of His stable
and at a wonderfully small cost. Now
I submit to Mr. Hill, what good would
that road do to Lincoln county ? And
Lincoln county has subscribed forty
thousand di liars to the Road. For the
good that it would do us we might as
well put our money in the Georgia
Pacific or the Trxas Pacific. No, let
the Road take the route it w'as first ties
tined to take, the route that it must
necessarily and inevitably lake, tht
shortest cheapest and best route which
is, as you remarked in your last issue,
the old Grant-Childa survey. This sur¬
vey runs by Lincolnton and to the east
of'Danburg about four miles, crossing
Broad River near Thompson’s old
tory sight and then strikes the ridge
with a straight level shoot for Elber
ton. Lincols oounty.

[We publish the following letter
from President Verdery thinking it may
interest our readers:]
Augusta, Ga., March S, 18S8.
Hon. B. F. Tatom,
Lincolnton, Ga. ,
My dear Sir :— Your favor of 27th.
ultimo received.
Our Board of Directrrs will meet on
the9tliin8t, by wInch time our En¬
gineer will be ready to submit his es¬
timates of the survey up to Little river.
The Board will doubtless order the
grading to begin as soon as Captain
Dwight furnishes his report.
The good peple of Lincoln end Co¬
lumbia are impatient for “1 rsaking
dirt.” I am glad to learn this, but they
must bear in mind that by being too
has'y in the selection of a route we
might involve our Company in the
useless expenditure of thousand of d< -
lars and this we cannot afford. Nati re
has not done much for a railroad
Columbia county and hence
our Engineer has had to “hasten slow
ly” in order to select the least expensive
line and this I believe has been done
and tve are both satisfied that the coBt
of grading thr.iugh this county, (the
most difficult part of the line), will be
less than what we at first thought. So
much then for being careful and not
hurrying over the work. While my
experience in locating railroads is very
limited, yet the most casual observer
will recognize at a glance that no work
is so important, and that in a country
naturally unfriendly to railroads it re¬
quires time, Bkiil and labor for the se¬
lection of the best and least expensive
route.
Only let the people stand by me as
they have promised to do and they will
get the road. My heart is in the enter¬
prise, and I stand prepared to give it
the best years of my life. Now that tlic
roads have improved and the weather
is fine I hope every subscriber will set¬
tle up his dues.
With many thanks for your prompt
attention. I remain,y< urs most truly,
J. P. Verdery, Pres’t.
The smallest county paper is worth
more to its subscribers in one mouth
than its price for a year, and does more
for its neighborhood for nothing Ilian
many a high official does for Bis mu
uificent salary.—Brainbridge Demo¬
crat. There is no question of the
truth of the above opinion. The man
who doesn’t sustain his county pa
pqr is a short-sighted fellow, and he
who tliiuks it a gratuity to do so is a
fcol. Men of intelligence know that
every good interest in a county is ad¬
vanced by the county paper, and that
it is to their interest to sustain it.—
Macon Telegrrph.

C., crossed little river last Thursday,

Louisville, March 4.—The Courier
Journal will say editorially of gover¬
nor Stephens’s death: No record of na¬
tional events for the past twenty-five
years would be complete which bore
n > reference 1 1 the distinguished Geor¬
gian. For long years an invalid, often
approaching vary near to the waters
of that river a hich his spirit last night
crossed, into the great beyond, his ten¬
acious will power, his strong and man¬
ly courage, never forsook him, nor did
the master intellect weaken. Sticken
with (his last and fatal illness, he look¬
ed beyond him with a prescience we
cannot understand, shrinking and plaintively,
i hough with no courage,
said *T am going to die.” Probably
the death of no other southern states¬
man has excited wider or mote diverse
comment than will that of Governor
Stephens. A brilliant remainder of
(lie old regime, he linked in his pres¬
ence the glories of i'» past with the
sterner scenes which followed, and as
the second officer of the confederate
government gave his name and fame
to an epoch that will live till time shall
be no more, lie disunion
and with all the eloquence of his na¬
ture plead, d f >r the union and consti¬
tution. Failing to prevent the adop¬
tion of the ordinance of secession, he
sadly turned aside from the paths of
peace, and for weal or woe, cast his lot
with his native state. When all was
finished and the dismembered states
began again to group themselves about
the standard of the union, he took up
anew the burden of official like which
was finally laid down only when from
the frail body life went out on the
chimes of the midnight hour last night,
ft is no fitting time to discuss the life
of this deid sta'eanan. It is enough to
say, standing in the shadow of his
coffin, that though he may have com¬
mitted errors, as wh > of us has not? y< t
was he a patriot, an honest, true and
faithful man, loving his native s ate too
well to desert it in the hour of need. Yet
not forgetting the glories of the union,
from which he sorrowfully turned
away and to which he returned as true
and faithful as any man who lived.
The finest eulogy which can be writ¬
ten, upon him, and that which he
would love best, is that his memory is
enshrined iu the hearts of the people
of Georgia and that all the storms of
the advancing years cannot efface it.
Tlic Augusta, Eibcrion and
Chicago.
' Washington, Ga.—I nterest is man
i'ested in this section in rega.d to the
Augusta, Elberton and Chicago rail¬
road, or the “Lincoln county railroad,”
as it generally goes byhere. The route
is being surveyed and the work wih
soon ,be commenced. This road will
run through the extreme northeast
part of this county, and is bound to
cut off a large part of Washington’s
trade, as the bulk of her trade comes
f rom the north and eastern part of this
Cv.u ty and from Lincoln.
daneurq’s ambition
Danburg,Washington’s “little
situated iu the northeastern part of the
county, is clamoring to he a depot on
this new railroad and it is probable that
tire road will run either by, or near
this would be city. Danburg, isolated
as she now is, does a
and being situated in the best farming
section of the country, ships a large
proportion of the cotton crop, hauling
it ever twelve miles of bad road. The
town has three or four prosperous mer¬
chants, and with a half chance, wou^d
spread herself to some dimensions.
Should the A. E. & C. railroad go
through it will develop one of the finest
water powers in the south, located on
Broad river, between this and Elbert
county,and known as Anthony’s shoals.
The fall is heavy, and water never fail¬
ing from the valleys of this, together
with a natural dam, makes it superior
to any water power in this.section of
the state .—Atlanta Constitution.
Tlic iloUm Begins to Hlow.
About a year ago the atmosphere of
Lincoln county, which for a century or
more had been at a dead calm, appear¬
ed to be the very faintest ruffled, later
on the zepbry became a healthy breeze
and now nothing is more perceptible
than that we are actually agitated by
the beginning of a boom. People are
moving already to Lincolnton having
selected it as a place likely to have
some importance in the not distant
future. Others are erecting houses,
while many inquiries are made touch¬
ing the price and so forth of land by
persons who intend to soon make this
their home. Counting the new firm of
Murray Zellars & Co., which has just
opened here under the very best aus
picies we. know of four houses, that
will this season spring into existence at
Lincolnton. As the railroad progresses
of course business and business houses
will likewise increase. There will un¬
questionably be a steam mill put up
here this summer and other enterprises
of a general character will follow. It
is natural for a man to like and be
proud of his home and his section, but
in this instance it can hardly be doubt¬
ed at all that the upper Savannah riv¬
er country in Georgia will before long
be second to no part of the state in any
respect.
The Augusta amt Elbdrton.
Ground for the Augusta, Elberton
and Chicago railroad will be broken
early in March, probably next week.
Enough has been subscribed to the
road to insure its success, and no
doubts are expressed about the com¬
pletion of the grading in a few months
when bonds will be issued to purchase
the iron and rolling stock. The road
will connect with the Augusta and
Knoxvill railroad about fifteen miles
from Augusta .—Atlanta Constitutiou.
Judge Pottle dissolved the injunc¬
tion in the case of creditors against the
assignees of M, Myers, and the latter
will take charge of the business again.

I paid Lincolnton a visit on last Sat
urday,and found every thing on a
boom in anticipation of the R. R.
there is demand for houses beyond
anything in the past history of Lin¬
colnton, the price of land is advancing
for the same reason, all over the Coun¬
ty, now is the time for live men, by
taking the tide at the (l.>od, to be led to

We want to see the Augusta and
Elberton railroad built, and also a con¬
nection from this place to that road ;
»nd want to see roads built all over

densely populated sections of the
North. This is the only way we know
of to run the value of our lands up to
