—It is a pity when a negro so far
forgets himself as to assault a white
man. The result is always fatal to the
negro. The white men of this country
own it and they expect to control it.
As long as the negro remains with us
he may expect to find himself a sub¬
ordinate in every respect
—Quite a number of our subscribers
have been complaining of not receiv
ing the News regularly. We are sure
we send all the papers out from this

tion.
The cotton market of Augusta is
dull at cento. The receipts for
last week were greater than ever before
in the history of tbe world. Last years
tremendouscrop and the present heavy
receipts occasion the dullness of the
market. It is to he hoped, but hardly
to be expe cted, that a rise in price will

kin Wright Esqr. for the solicitorship
of the Augusta Circuit.
—On Tuesday morning last, Mies
Mamime Elam was married to Mr.

—Mr. Jim Willingham has been em¬
ployed by Mr. C. M. May to assist,

tain young man will be after going to
Augusta too.
—Mr. E. T. Shubrick will be a can¬
didate before the next Legislature for
Solicitor of the Northern circuit. There
is no gentleman more competent and

nog and ’timmon beer."
A* £» At C. It. Notes.
—A meeting of our Board of Direc
tors was held in Augusta yesterday for
some important business.
—Mr. A. S. Buford, President of the
Richmond and Danville was expected
to attend the meeting yesterday. It
will be remembered that he is one of
our directors.
—They are speaking of having a
citizens’ meeting in Augusta, to arouse
a deeper interest in and a more thor¬
ough awakening to the fast failing
business of that city, and for the pur¬
pose of discovering as soon as possible
a remedy and applying it. Alter
thoroughly studying the situation, if
they arrive at any other conclusion
than that their prime need is another
outlet to the West,then we will be very
much surprised. Call your citizens’
meeting and what you determine to
do, “ 'twere well it were done quickly.”
—At the meeting of the city council
of Augusta last week it was determin¬
ed that the law did not authorize the
city’s taking any stock in the Augusta
and Elbertou Road. But it is contend¬
ed that this view of the matter is not
correct and it will be attempted to
make it so appear to the council. Hon.
I. C. C. Black and a number of other
prominent lawyers are of the opinion
that the law does authorize it, and they
with nearly every citizen of Augus a
are strongly in favor of helping our
Road with a subscription from the city.
— The city stockholders are paying
up the fourth installment. Presidem
Verdery is pulling away with his force.
He is working very economically and
in the long-run this will tell much to
our advantage. Suppose, for instance,
tbat an extravagant, speculative man
had been at the head of our affairs last
spring. The result would have been
l e would have gone in debt, we would
have been sold out, perhaps the Ga. R.
R. would have got hold of our pro, e
ty and we would have bien forev r
estopped from proceeding further. As
it is, we have weathered the severest of
our trials, our property is daily increas¬
ing in value, it has attracted the deep¬
ly interested notice of the Seney syn¬
dicate which gives us strong hope of
our having in a short while a through
line to the West. This is the present
state of affairs and it is growing more
encouraging every day. It is now a
recognized fact tbat our property will
become, in time, perhaps short, a part
of one the grandest developing trunk
lines in the South. When completed
it will certainly do more to bring out
this entire section than everything else
combined. These are plain and incon¬
trovertible facts.
•fNotifiable Homicide.
Last Thursday evening, just about
sundown, Mack Whitley, a negro, living
on Mrs. A. E. Lyon's place, met his
death at the hands of Mr. George Cun¬
ningham, under the following circum¬
stances. Mr. Cunningham had the
negro with him hauling rails and,
seeing him lagging lazily around, he
commanded him to hurry up and get
about his work. The negro retofted
insultingly and when he was threaten¬
ed with a whipping be caught up bis
ax and make for Mr. Cunningham,
cutting at him desparately, so that he
barely escaped. There was no other
resort but to shoot which Mr. Cunning¬
ham did, inflicting immediateodeath.
The negro was a reckless worthless
■htfttterjand iMfejdj^vuarrel indeed it is supposed with Mr.
sUfer -gwe jStoMbheld of killing
168S. LiscsIalM KM.
Now that our Railroad prospects are
settling down to an absolute certainty
and tbat every part of our business
feels the genial breath of prosperity,we
pause a moment t>> contemplate the
situation. Taking the lead in this
grand boo m that is with us will be
found the merchants of Lincolnton.
They do not sit idle by and let the
present opportunity slip them. They
well know that life and competition
are to incite them to harder work and
renewed efforts and that this is the part
of every successful merchant They
are not only active but they are *ide
awake and libera L They generously
patronize their county Newspaper,
usiug plenty of printers ink. Stinginess
is no part of tbeir characters. The
burdens that are to be borne in build¬
ing up our town they gladly bear to¬
gether, They would scorn to sit by
and enjoy the fruits of their fellows’ la
b rj in behalf of tbeir home interests
Mark the man who will not do his part
in such matters in any town, his place
is more to be desired than his compa¬
ny,he is a drag on the community. The
world moves and the progress of the
times demands that drones and dd
fogies be quietly laid on the shelf. This
is fully realized in our county and
nearly every one is doing what lie can
for himself and his people. Let this
spirit continue to animate us and and
it will not bo long before we will enjoy
the richest fruits of such a course.

Special Locals.
—Fire works of every description
to be had at T. B. & G. S. Hollens¬
head’s.
—Mr. J. M. Auderson of Augusta
will be glad to sell for tbe people all
the hides that they have or may have.
—Ail persons indebted to tho Geor¬
gia Chemical works for guano sold by
Mr. E Z, Bussey are requested to call
at once at this office and settle up.
—For building purposes Lime and
Lathes will now in Lincoln county be
in constant demand. All can be sup¬
plied with them by Mr. J. M. Ander
son ou terms most reasonable.
—We call attention to the mammoth
advertisement of Tarver Cashin & Co
It speaks in loudest language of their
exceeding liberality to their customers
and of their tremendous activity and
enterprise. This well-known firm de¬
serves all their success.
—The Lincolnton reading club is
hereby adjourned until Friday Janua¬
25 1884.

-Oar friends of the Evening News
make us out as saying that the Glob
Hotel is the best in Augusta. In the
first place we said no such thing. In
the second place, we have always pre¬
ferred the Central, for various good
reasons, to any hotel in the city. XVe
adveriise bath of these hotels and they
are, each, excellent in their way. *
—Just to think of a lady makiug
each of her three married daughters a
Christmas present of a handsome Or¬
gan. A lady in Augusta did this very
thing, and, of course, organs suitable
in every respect could only be found
at headquarters, the music house of
the South, Mr. Geo. 0. Robinson pro¬
prietor.
—The American Register, cf Wash¬
ington city is the best democratic pa¬
per published in the United States.
This may seem exaggeration to some
but it is intended to be simply true. It
is strongly endorsed by thirty-two U. S
democratic Senators and a large num¬
ber of members of the House. During
the next year, 1884, it will be the best
medium of reliable information from
the Capital, Its editorials are of a
high order, illustrating true Jefferson¬
ian democracy in a philosophical and
statesmanlike manner. We would like
to see it circulate widely in Lincoln
county. Its terms are two dollars per
year, or in clubs of ten or more sub¬
scribers one dollar each. tf.
“A Literary Republic.”
“Fifty millions of people, mostly
fools,” was Carlyle’s pointed way of
putting it. The now brilliantly suc¬
cessful Literary Revolution—which a
few months ago was supposed to be
permanently doomed—assumes the
opposite, that people are, not mostly
fools, but that they want GOOD books
rather than rash, and the “literary
Republic” is tbe result. Every reader
is a voter. Ballots in the first election
are to be cast (by postal card), before
January 1, 1884. The following are
tbe first “candidates” for honors:
Georgs Rawlinson.— “History of
the Seven Gre^t Monarchies of the Al>

and “Stones of Venice.” In five hand
