Opening ol‘tlio Fall Flfflfts. On last Monday afternoon, Webb Wyatt and n stranger in toivn named Thompson got into a long and heated discussion, on the porch of, Scarbor ough's bar, abont their skill as car penters. Finally Thompson chal lenged Wyatt's ability to cut and lit a particular kind of brace. Wyatt said he could cut it; but after ho Ijnd got the brace cut, Thompson told him that it was not the kind of brace he meant—that any blank fool could cut such a brace as that. Upon this. Wyatt asked him if he meant to call him a fool. Thompson replied in the negative, and begged Wyatt’s pardon. Wyatt then told him if he willed, him a fool ho would slap him. Thompson stepped out and told Wyatt to try it, or go with him out side the Corporation, and ho would show him what ho could do for him. Wyatt declined a fair fight, but asked him again and again if lie meant to. call him a fool. The third time the question was put, Thompson said yes. Hereupon Wyatt walked- into the house. Thompson, not suspect ing anything, walked ofE down the street, when Wyatt came out and, with a stick that ho held in his hand, struck Thompson on the head from behind boforo he discovered him. Thompson ran off crying, “that is uot fair!" Wyatt chased him, and kept striking till ho got him down and continued to boat him till stopped by Mr. John Pndgct. By this time the town marshal, J. W. Wriglit, was on the ground. lie arrested Thompson aiid clapped him in the Guard House at once, and an hour biter brought him before the Mayor charged with fighting and disorderly, conduct! Wyatt was re quested to appear before the court and the same charge preferred against him. Judge Wolfe was Mayor protoin. He remarked in the opening of the trial that lie did not. want to hoar many witnesses,—that it was near supper, time After the above evidence was given, the Judge said as it was a sort of drunken ro\T, and both parties equally to blame, ho- would dkolnugw them both without a fine. The people throughout the county are strongly impressed with the belief that the Barbecue and Basket Dinner on the 8d day of October next, Is to be the biggest tiling of the kind ever known in this part of tlic country. * We were glad to see the Rev. Burrol 8 Kea of Berrien county in our office on last Monday, lie is in ill health, and is spen ding a few weeks of rest from Ills ministerial labors with his friends* and relatives in Laurens and Emanuel counties, in tlic hope of regaining bis health. May he soon be restored to his health and to his flock. A daughter of Mr. Lake of this county was suddenly taken on last Friday evening by fainting rind falling in the yard. She lias been very low ever since at short inter vals. On Sunday afternoon she is repor ted to have fainted at least a hundred times. Dr. Hightower has been almost in con stant attendance, but thinks her case noarly hopeless. v We present our renders this weeek two excellent articles touching our local pol itics. Nothing can give a healthy tone to local politics so much ns a vigorous and sharp discussion in the local paper. Wc hope therefore that these vital questions will be further discussed in the Post. We feel sure it will be productive of much good. pol The "in a; Mr. Lewis B. Linder of this county in forms us that lie lias a last spring chicken which has failed to develop any feathers ex cept on the tips of its wings! What is worse, it has shed its down, fie had such a chicken several years ago, for which he had 4 night gown made in tlic full to protect it from the cold. But alas! one frosty night the chamber-maid forgot her duty, nud poor chick went to soost with out its gown and froze to death. Our genial friend Mr. J. S. Horn of the National Hotel iu Silicon favorcd.us with a call on last Monday. lie looks as if hard times had never been ln/ard of at the National, just as fiery one is made too feel wlio stops at that, most excellent Hotel.

Wo cheerfully recommend tlic National to tlic numerous readers of the ‘Post as a Hotel at which they will always he made to feel at home and where they will ulways be fed upon the fat of many lands.

On Friday evening last Dr. It. II. Fate of Dooly, brought to Ilnwkins- ■■rij om, villo a pair of still-born twins, oxpec- , . ■ ■ «p ting to have them preserved in alco hol and forward to the Atlanta Med* ical college or museum for the bene fit of medical science. The twins were males, and weigod four toon pounds. They were united about tljo chest, and the union of the two bodies continued to the lower abdo men,’when the bodies became sepa rate. Their position was facing each other. Their limbs wero en tirely distinct. Thoy were well de veloped. 'Not being able to procure tlio al cohol- iii time to prevent putrefmo tion, a eoffin was obtained and the bodies buried in the cemetery in Ilawkinsvillp.——Jlmukinsv ilk' Dis patch. There is a good deal in a name iii North Carolina .politics. At the recent. State election North hampton county went Democratic; it had previously given Republican ' x ' 'VOQy.an joritic3.-of^fi?mjL.7.Q0 to *1 Is of from 2,500 to 3,000 votes. coun ton by 133. There was stupefaction f<jr a wliilo till the truth came out, as fol lows: On election day, just previous tojhe opening of two pools, a man on- horse-hack appeared at each vo ting' precinct, culled up the colored voters and addressed them substan tially as follows: “Fellow citizens: I come to address you this morning as to the man you shall vote for. J shall.-say but few words, and these will be espSecjally directed to’you col ored people. Who gave gave you your libcrtfe.s? f ’ “Grant! Grant! General Grant!” rent the air. “Who fought for you four years and took your bonds of slavery and made you a froe and noble pcop’le?” “Grant! Grant! General Grant!” “Then hero are ‘Grant’ tickets I hold in one hatld and. ‘Newsum’ tickets I hold in the other. Which will yon vote?” “Give me d<5 Grant ticket! Give me do Grant ticket! Hurra for Grant! J is for Grant evoy time, I is!” was the al most unanimous response. The thunderstruck Republican fuglemen wore too dazed at the audacity of the spokesman and its success to inter fere in season, and “Grant” swept the county. The Incarcerated Women. In our recent trips to Johnson, wo find a deep interest manitested throughout that county in tlio Perry Money case. It is talked of as much in Johnson now us it was in Lunrens a fow weeks ago. And though the excitement overtheca.se has abated considerably in this county, the public arc still anxious to learn of every now step taken in the matter by the parties concerned and their attorneys. While the reports of the Post have been concise, they lmvo been fully sufficient for a clear undcrstiuiiiig of tlio case. And it is our puvposo to keep, the -.public posted, till the whole matter is settled. At present everything is in statu quo; but ho’w long it will bo so, remains to be seen. Mr. Edward Perry’s attorneys inform us that the women are endeavoring to give bond; how they arc succeeding wo are una ble to say. Mr. Conner, attorney for tlio women informs us that lie applied .a few days ago for a now Writ of Habeas Co'rpus before Jndgo Johnson; but that lie (Jndgo Joliu- son) on account of ill health and the approach of his own courts was Re luctantly compelled to dcclino a hear ing. Judge Pate’s absohoo from home was tlic only reason why Mr. Con nor sought a judgo outsido tlio Oco- nec* Circuit. To tlio Memory of the Dead. BliTlIEL Cuuncu, JOlINSON Co., GA. Aug, 30th, 1878.' FA. -Post: Allow mo space iu your columns to speak of tlio dead. Life is real, life is'earncst and life is passing away! Wo are taught- by tlie word of God that wo all shall die., What ti-solcum thought! Nev ertheless, it is surely true. Wo have no account of any ever ascending to the mansions above, since some of the most .ancient patriarchs, who were fortunate enough to oscapo tho pangs of death. While wo know death is a certainty, wo, often forget it in pur merriment. But, when wo arc called upon tO'attqnd the the burial of a relative-or friend, w6 are filled with thoughts of solemni ty in modi tilt ing upon our own fate. Who is it that LtWrWA sCOH n JK7UKx-9J^i*^:cij! a. friend interred, in the dark, and damp earth? It matters not how deep and hitter our loss may bo, there is nothing left to remind us they have lived except their graves.' But how is it with tlio friends and relatives of tlioso who have been in terred in the Cemetery at Bethel? Many, many are tjic dead, who sleep there, who liavo not a head board (o designate tlio spot whore they have been laid. I walked through to eco who and how many slept in this di lapidated grave yard;, but to my sur prise I found but one name inscribed in tlio whole Cemetery: Elizabeth Fish. I could not tell whether peas ants or knights slept there: I think quite likely they were of the former class: for I think surcly> if they, (tlicir friends,) were able, they would have a stone at their head and feet with their name inscribed thereon: Most all here are able-to render la bor fer tile repairing graves; so that strangers, as myself, maybe awe to ascertain with certainty the names of those who slumber lioro. Some rnay ask, “why did you not got sonic one to go as a guide for yon?” Had 1 dono so, I hardly think I would have been-jmadc much wiser: -.for I doubt whether the- oldest oitizono could tell- me whore half tho -doud aro buried— As for mo, wlum I die, I ask not for a costly .monument with beautiful sayings carved thereon, but do put a stone at my head lVith name thereon. Yours, “Invita Minerva.” Obituary. Died n( ids residence in Laurens county.
