A yountf man numml Noah Kent , has been arrested, charged with the 1 murder of the man who was recently found dead in Columbia county. The wheat crop around Pillion is looking exceedingly well. Farmers' are greatly behind hand, however, with their work, on account of the rains. The small grain crop of this covin- j ty, as far as we have seen or heard from, is looking well and promises an abundant yield. The area devoted to this important crop is unusually large.

VYelelier, of Columbus, Georgia, was married h> Miss Linnie Copeian I, of Kussell county, Ala. - The Savannah AVu.v says during the present shad season it is estimat ed that Savannah has handled from ' the Florida waters, as well as those contiguous, upwards of one hundred and fifty thousand shad. -The Sumter lli'iodd'iraa says a genuine panther was killed a few (lays since on Kinehafoonee creek, in Lee county. He measured seven feet eight inches from nose to tail, and two feet and ten inches around the body. The Haiti bridge Danan-rot says : We may be mistaken, yet we cannot get, rid of tiie. idea that the next Rad ical Presidential ticket will read: “For President, U. S. Grant, of Illi nois; for Vice President, A. H. Ste phens, of Georgia.” -—The Milledgeville / aUm and llr rordar says careful investigation shows that nine' persons were killed, sixty wounded, ninety-four houses blown down, and $50,000 worth of nroperty destroyed in Raid win county by the late tornado. —The Hukinsville Ihxpatch says that the oat. crop in Wilcox and Irwin are looking well, and it appears that a much larger amount of land than usual has been sown. The rains have been so frequent, ami heavy that far mers are greatly Ldiind with their work. Where is tin* Georgia Legisla ture? in Houston county coin is selling at one dollar a bushel for (wish, and a dollar and a half on time.

Sara niton AVavi. —The Hamilton l r utitor adds to the incidents of tin- tornado: On the plantation of Captain Pitts stand- a large beech tree, near two feet, in di ameter. During the storm a scant- , ling :ix4 inches was driven oentrely through it, and is still in the tree so fast that It can not be moved or shaken. It was blown at least three-quarters of a mile before striking the tree. On** of the sills of the house, 12x14 inches, was can ied a mile from tin* ruins. The wind came from every direction. The saws of a gin were blown in one direction, the ribs in another, and the brush in another; the frame cannot be found. Near tin* Columbus road many of the trees Ml towards each other, and most of the large ones fell in the direction from which tin; storm came. Corn stood a slim showing in the storm, ft Was shucked, shelled, and the cob split up by the wind. Hobby Pitts saw an ear sticking in a tree, and broke it off in an attempt to get it out. There are many bushels of shelled corn lying around Captain Pitts’ place. Yesterday in conversation some one remarked that Gen. Toombs never crosses a eourt house door for loss than live thousand dollars. When Judge JLoehrant* replied that, there was nothing strange about that. I wouldn’t take any ease, for a smaller fee than ten thousand dollars. This caused the crowd to discuss legal foes, and it was found that several large fees had been paid Atlanta law yers since the war. Mr. Hill, in tin* celebrated Metcalf ease, received a hundred thousand dollars fee. Judge Loohrane a fee of forty t housand dol lars in the Brunswick and Albany easH. Mr. Hill received a fee of twenty-five thousand dollars for his ; management of Kimball’s <'•*. j Judge buchrane recei ven ill teen thousand dollars as a fee from Mrs. Kimball in the Kimball House ease. In addition to these wises, there is a case now pending between Henry Clew* & Cos. vs. the Cherokee Rail road, involving two hundred and sev enty-live thousand dollars, in which the fees will be large. It is said that Judge Loch ratio's fee, as attorney for Clews, will be twenty-live thousand dollars. The case will come in the Chancery Court on the 7th of this month, before Judge L. X. Whittle, auditor. The counsel for Clews is Judge Lochrane, of Atlanta, Col. THE DAILY TIMES. I Amo?. T. Akmnnii, of t'nrtorsvillo. ami Hun. John M.AYanl, of New York. Hou. li. I*.

To engage a hack in this place to , i carry one to the depot costs only tico j dollars. We flnnint certainly have more hacks. The business pays splendidly. Columbus bus formerly accused Opelika of being a lawless, blood thirsty place, but now Columbus seems to be envious of the reputation ; she lias given Opelika. Uusiuess is dull in Onoliku; also in (‘Very other place wo nave heard from, except New York. The Beech cr-Tilton business is increasing every day, but, still Judge Fullerton says | there’s more reputation than money ; in it. -Our fanners have planted an un ! usually large crop <>f small grain, and jif the season is favorable, we may ' look for an abundant harvest*. This iis the only way t<> prosper. The ’ sooner we make our own bread, and food for our stock, the sooner we will ! be Independent. The storm which recently caused , such destruction of life and property * in Georgia, did considerable damage , also in this portion of Alabama. In . the neighborhood of Loaehapoka it was very severe. No lives were lost, but many houses, .-tables, barns and screws were blown down, Moiitgmnen elects a M; vor and OoHiieU and (Herk in May. W# sin cerely hope that good Democrats will I take the places of the Radical and [corrupt portion of tin* pr(‘sent city officials, and such a change can be brought about if the white people of j ' Montgomery are alive to their lntcr i eats and truo to their party. The ! ohaage is sadly necwled. The Governor has appointed (V>l. John '!’. Milner of Greenville, Hon. l’cter Hamilton of Mobile, Hon. An drew Cunningham of Talladega, and j Col.

The Leg j islature. very wisely made no appro* ! priation, and it is hot probable that the commissioners <*an collect any funds from private sources: so 1 heir position will be a sinecure, without j j any pay.

New York. April *5. The Timrs dis cussed the results of the Connecticut election at some length, editorially, this morning, and atrributos the Dem- j ocratie victory to the misguided pol-1 I icy of the Xtepubliean party in at tempting to justify the course of the Government, in Louisiana; of attempt ed legislation on the Force bill, and the passage of the Civil Rights law. The JPoWd says the election is a glorious Democratic victory, and an utter repudiation of the Republican party. The Trlbaat‘ considers that the elec tion was an Administration light and an Amninistration defeat. The lb raid, by comparing the votes of the past two years, shows that the j Democratic majority on tlie State j ticket is Smaller than last year, it j reviews the political questions at is-1 tic, and regards the election of Ea- j ton, in the United States Senate, as a j blunder *>f tin* Democrats, which has alienated thousands of voters from i the Democratic, ranks. It argues that : tin* Republicans may recover a good | deal of lost ground, if, in the next ■ fall election, they throw overboard | third-term aspiral ion. • -♦ • Fwrt Valley invited 5 icier Cikat'tff ni Yiolatftii;*’ Fitlarccmeul A rl.
