Shiloh's Cure is the remedy for you. Sold by H Hicks & Co , Dublin Georgia. Last Monday, while Simon An derson, a negro, was plowing along in his field, a few miles above tliis place, a limb fell on his horse and killed him. Simon had made con siderable preparation for planting his crop, and being unable to pur chase another horse, may bo consid ered doubly unfortunate. Tho moat atrocouis enmo that ov- or darkened the pages of Laurens county's history was committed fivo miles above this place, ou tho Toom- bsboro road, last Friday night, the particulars of which aro about as follows: Two disguised men wofit to tho houso of Mr. Joseph Perry, an aged and much respocted gontloman, and bioke open the door to his bedroom with a fence rail, with tho supposed purpose of robbing him.’ Mr. Perry was awaked by tho noise on the door and sprang from his bed in to the floor j nst as the men broke in, and was seized by both arms. He managed, after struggling for awliile, to effect a release of one arm when the party that hold it said, “shoot him 1 Bhoot 1” Immediately a shot was fired and the two mon fled from the house, Mr. Perry reached for his gun and sending a stray Bhot in the direction of his as sailants, which was answored by two pistol shots. . This was at 12 o’clock and tho rest of the night all remain ed quiet. Next morning the negro boy went oat to draw a bucket of water, saw a man lying on the ground and rush ed back aud told Mr. Perry that there was a dead negro near the gate. Tho coroner was ad vised hud the news spread like wildfire. Sev eral citizens gathered at the place, and thoro not being enough for a jury, a summons was sent for S. T. Tipton, a constable of Bailey’s dis trict, to go and summons the jury. His wife sent back word that her husband left the evening beforo with Joe Weaver, who had previously broken jail, and who is under sen tence to the penitentiary for fifteen years. Upon discovery it was found that the masked man lying at the gate was S. T. .Tipton, who had been killed by the shot that was in tended for Mr. Perry. His mask consisted of a rod calico blouse'which reached to his knoes, and a hood with places for eyes, nose and mouth,. After investigation, the -CoYouW ren dered a verdict that deceased “camo to his death by a pistol shot in the hands of some unknown party, at the residence of Joseph Perry, five miles north of Dublin.” It is generally believed that his as sistant was Joe Weaver, a nephew of Mr. Perry, who doubtless wanted the money to help him evade the officers of the law. It reported' that Tiptou’s wife says that her husband had been feeding some ouo in the woods for some time. The community is greatly concern ed over the matter, and efforts are being made for the capture of Wea rer, who is still at large. Marshal Martih is hourly expectod from At lanta with bloodhounds that Will bo put on his traot as soon ns he arrives. A reward of one hundred dollars bus been offered for his capture. Railroad Accident. On Thursday last, almost half way between Augusta and Millen, on the Augusta branch of the Central, both axles of the driving whcols on the right side of the engine broke which caused a delay of soveral hours. There wore n good many passengers on board, among whom wore Mr. W. G. Weaver and tho writer. ^No damago was done except to the en- gino, which, owing to the distanco to Waynesboro, soven miles, the nearest telegraph office, which had to bo traveled on foot, was not oleared from tho track until about night. It is said to have been the only acci dent to a passengor train on that road for several years. • The passengers wore beginning to wonder what they should do for din ner, and had about come to tho rea sonable conclusion that they would havo to do without until perhaps late at night, when, to the pleasant surprise of all, two beautiful, accom plished, and very clever young la dies, MissDaniell, of Millen, and her friend, MissRogors, passed around an ample lunch that they had secur ed before leaving Augusta, for which they woro voted the thanks of tho entire crowd.

Joo Gardner, which occurred at Fran fort, Ky., on Mon day, March 7th inst., at G(30 p. m. of apploxy. Ho had visited our town and spent months overy winter for a " number of years and the people Imd learned to vespoot and nduire him, as the possessor of evory charuteristio that went to make a true and noble man. Regret was expressed by all, and expressions of sympathy for the boreovud family were on overy tongno. Ho loft hero only a few days beforo lhs death to canvass his state for Lieutenant Governor, an offioo that an apprecia tive constituency anxiously wanted him to accept. Among the ninViy other gobd things said on the doath of Mr. Gardner, the Sentinel-Demo• crat, of his state, Bays-: It would take a largo volumn to roqord the worth and merit of this good man. Ho -stood, forth as the leader of tho people, and champion- pionod everything that wus right. An honest man, lie was trusted by his fellow man. Geritlo by nature, cultured and rofiiied, ho was idolizod by his family and porsons closely al lied to him. He loved books, road and studied them. Ho was prudent in tho man agement of business,'and we under stand leaves considerable property. He was not a politician in the pop ular sense, but willing to obey the calls of hi? friends, hence he yielded to the demands of tho people, and served u term iu the«House and two terms in the Senate, as a rnembor of the Kentucky Legislature, and mado an enviable record. His candinaoy for .Lieutenant Governor was in obedience to resolutions in two large conventions in Eustern Kentucky, and wc boliovod that ho would havo been nominated and elootod, had ho lived. Malicious Mischief. Some very mischievous porson, or persons, broke a half dozon street lamps last Friday night for no othor reason than mean oussodness. It must havo boon some, one who had boon previously arraigned for some violation of tho town ordnance, aud tho offender, taking advantage of the quietude of tho town, and nudoubt odly nerving himself up to such a contemptible not by taking on an overcharge of whiskey, gave vent to his spleen by damaging the property of the towu to which he hud doubt less rightly paid a liberal fine for misconduot. As a further und stronger proof that it was some ono who had deposited in the town treas ury, tho office sign of the attorney for tho town council, D. Ware, Jr., Esq., disappeared on tho samo night and its whereabouts havo not yet been ascertained. A reward of forty dollars has been offered for the ar rest of and proof to convict tho guil ty party, and it is siuccroly hoped that lie may be ovorlakon and given his just desert.
