There is a little negro on the Athens chain-gang, sent up for 30 days for knocking a little girl down Ijecauee she refused to allow him to kiss her. *He is not much larger than a spring chicken, and is kept busy carrying water. A negro named Jim W Jton was before Wilkes County Court on Tueseay, for a preliminary trail, charged with intent to rape on the person of a white lady. The fact of the await being established, he was then tried for the .offence and sen tenced to the chain-gang for twelve months. There is a white man in Hamilton aouaty who can write without know ing the alphabet or being able to read anything except bis own writing. He writes by imitation and memory. The first time he ever wrote his name a lawyer wrote the name and this man copied it as his signature c a legal paper. It is farther said that this man superintends a twelve-mule farm and keeps his books regularly after a style of hi* own. Hie memory is Mid to be remarkably retentive, and Me power of imiutioa is almost per fect. The Mayor of Cedartown and four of the largest men in town, including Sheriff Clements, in the finest rig to be found, went down to the jail a day or two ago and presented a telegram from Judge i’atdee leleasing from custody A. Huntington, committed to jail for an alleged contempt of court. They then escorted that gentleman to a vehicle and drove him about the place. 7 Mr. Huntington was com mitted to prison for ninety days, but only remained nineteen days. Dur ing bis confinement he was visited ewery day by scores of friends, inclu ding ladies, and flowers and splendid dinners were sent him almost daily. Pwiroa Oak. Spartanburg, 8. C., March 13, 1884.

The Mercury works it way into the tissues, producing rheumatism and decay of the bout's. The lodide of Potassium eats away the coating of the stomach, and dries up the gastric juices which digest the food, aud the patient lingers along in agony or is glad to die to get away from misery. - Swift’s Sfiecific is a complete anti dote to all this poison. It eliminates Mercury from the system, removes * the evil effects of lodide of Potass ium, and brings back health and bappiucsM. Send your address for • copy of Treatise on Bbol and Bkin Diseases.

She took a bank book out of her ixwotn and showed ma that the bad a deposit cf four thousand dollar*. While 1™ talking to her it occurred to me several times that her face was familiar, but I found that it was impos sible to place her. Finally I aaked her and she seemed greatly surprised that I Ued forgotten. She recalled the fact ihnt she cams to my office nearly twelve years ago with two thousand dollar* and be<j>n to tnecu’ate.

I was going out of the office about four o’clock in the afternoon on i my way home, when 1 became aware that there was a woman sitting in one of the office chairs staring blankly out of the window. I remembered that she had been there lor two or throe hours, and made some faquiriea. I found that aive was a boarding house keeper up town; t*‘d a very estimable and deserv ing woman.
