A Rare Coin.—-Marshal Ader-
hold, of Douglasvitle, has acuiiosity
in the way of a rare coin. On one

Dei. Gratia. 1175, and a picture of
Charles third. On the other side are
the court of arms of Spain,the letters
R, m- F. M.,and the words, Hispan.
Et. Ind.” It is about the size of a
dime. He also has a half dollar with
13 stars on it, made in 1817 with the
words “fifty cents, or half a dollar.”
What are they worth ?

lic taste, and always strives to

We had a pleasant cal! yesterday
from Messrs. D. P . White, who lives
in the eastern part of the county,
and William Aderhold, of Campbell
county. There is more appreciation
shown for our paper in Campbell
than any other of the surrounding
counties. Won’t some one of our
friends about Sand Town send us
a few Campbell dots occasionally.
We call attention to the card of
Col. John V. Edge, to be found in
another column of the Star. Col.
Edge is well and favorably known
throughout the county, he having
served eight years as Ordinary, and
is also well known in the adjoining
counties as a successful practitioner.
We commend his services to our
leaders.
On the fourth Monday in May,
(m>xt Monday) at the meeting of the
County Court, the D. uglasyille Bar
will formally present a series of reso
le ions on the death of Col. M. M.
Tidwell. At the same time, Col,
John M. Edge, a lifelong and inti
mate friend of Col. Tidwell 0 , will
deliver a commemorative address on
his lite, character and services. The
public are cordially invited to atten 1.
Mr. Lem Tidwell, son of the late
Col. M. M. Tidwell, did not hear of
his father’s death until a few hours
before the burial, and arrived here
about half,an hour after his father
was buried. In our next issue will
be found a catd of thanks from him i
to.the citizens for their great kind
ness to his father.
Mr, A. J. Whitley, Sr., who lives
on the Campbellton and Salt Springs
road, had two dogs bitten by a mac-
dog on the 10th of April, and they
both went mad at the same time,
on the 12th day of May. They would
attack any one of his family who ap
peared in th ; yard, and bit and snap
ped at everything that came about
them or that they could see. Fortu
nately they had done no serious dam
age before Mr. Whitley killed them.
We would advise all who have dogs,
to watch them closely, for they may
be attacked with hydrophobia at any
moment.
Mr. John M. Dalrymple, who lives
one mile south of Douglasville, was
driving down the hill beyond the
pauper farm last Saturday, in' a one
horse wagon,when his harness broke,
and the. wagon running upon the
horse, caused him to run away. Mr.
Dalrymple and his wife were vio
lently thrown from the wagon, and
bolh” badly hurt. Mr. Dalrymple
received some serious cuts and bruis
es about the head and facp, and was
brought to town and carried to the
drug store of Hudson & Edge in an
insensible condition. Dr. J. B.
Edge dressed his wounds, and ren
dered him all the medical and surgi
cal attention necessary. T-Te hope
the old gentleman may recover.

■ There is a young man in Douglas
ville, who says he is sometimes sorry
that he knows so much—that his
knowledge and information are
so extensive and voluminous that it
is sometimes really oppressive. His
acquaintances are also sorry that he
knows sc much—with his mouth.
His egotism is only equaled by his
unadulterated gall,and of all egotistS,
he v.ears the diamond belt, and car
ries off the gate money . Lightning
has too much respect for itself to
tackle such a man; but it it should
screw its courage up to the striking
point, it would bo admonished to
tear off only the top of his boots, in
order that his heir could wear them
as congress gaiters.

and in order to accomplish this, we
ask the young ladies—and married
ones too—to write up for us each

The care and attention bestowed
on Col. M. M. Tidwell during bis
last iimes's, and after bis death, by
the members of the Bar of Dougas-
ville, reflects gieat honor on that
noble profession, and on the individ
ual members of it, who compose the
Douglasville Bar. Aside from the
fact of Col. TidweH’s being one of
of the shining lights of the profes
sion, it showed the great love and
esteem entertained fair his, by the
lawyers, as a rua l of untarnished
uprightness and integrity. Truly
was he one of the few old-time gen
tlemen left among us, and greatly
will he be missed. May he rest in
p -ace. Resolutions will appear next
week.

DOUGLASVILLE, GA
BY REV. J. B. C. QUILL1AN.
Uncle Wiley Warwick, to whom 1 refered
in my former article, was long asuperanua-
ted member of the Georgia Conference. He
was above mediocrity as a preacher. His
voice seemed to have a kind of nasal twang,
attributad, it may have been to some extent,
to his immoderate use of snuff.
He had a favorite text from which he of
ten preached, in home made parlance it was
a “Sag..r Stick.’’ Render unto Caesar, the
things which are Caesars, aud unto God tbe
things which are Gods.’’ In announcing
his divisions once, be exclaimed “Eighty,
why says one, you have gone a great ways,I
Have, my subject is copious.”
I have no recollection of the thoughts oi
the sermon, but have no doubt but what it
had the ring of the true theology through
out, His farm was frequently overflowed
by Mossey creek. He tried various ways to
prevent it. My Uncle Daniel, a humerous
old gentleman said, that the only way “Un
cle Wiley” could save his land would be to
scaffold it. He merchandized for a time.
Was very energetic, he hurried up those in
his employ if they needed it. He was some
times spoken hard of, and rumors were
floating around. My mother was keenly
alive to anything that effected the character
of a minister, and always informed him so
that it might be cleared up and prevent any
harmful result. When quite a young man
I went back to a camp meeting at the old
pises and Uncle Wiley was preaching tbe
three o'clock sermon. I heard the close of
it. Afterward mv Uncle J. Q. said to me.
“Uncle Wiley referred to your mother this
evening. “Said be; “a woman once lived in
this neighborhood who, whenever she found
out anything against a certain map, she al
ways went and told him of it ; and that ruau
thought that woman the best friend he had.
When 1 was some ten or twelve years old
we were living at Eilijay, in Gilmer county.
The place was but newly settled. There
were many Indiana, and but few whites
comparatively, and no church buildings.
Uncle Wiley came to preach the funeral
sermon of Rev. William Ellington. He
preached in my father’s house from the
text, “Mark the perfect man, and behold
the upright, for the end of that man is
peace.” The text was peculiarly appropri
ate to the life and character aud closing
scene of the good man whose death was so
much lamented. At this late day, I have a
dream like recollection of the Sabbath even
ing he died. Everybody felt bereaved, saint
and'siuner wept like children. An earthly
iutt|rces5or was gone. They seemed to feel
that no one was left who could talk to God
liiie him, keep off judgments and bring bles
sings down. His death was one of happy
trjiu e ph- He spoke of Bishop McKer dree
tFAtom be so much loved, and clapping his
hsrKds said that he would soon be with Abra
SaRf-wSd with Moses. - He was buried on a
of Eilijay.
from the
square. There in silence, aud in dreamless
siumber, he a waits the voice of the resurreo
tion Angel. Not long afte,wards the old
companion of his early love was laid by his
side. The separation was but short—rhe in
terval brief, between the union on earth
and the e'ernal wedlock of heaven. He ana
Uncle Wiley were old companions in arms
But these old veterans have met long ago,
and talked over'tlie earthly conflicts, amid
the rhapsodies of the everlastcng home.
With approaching age ai d increasing in
firmitie", Uncle Warwick gave up the cares
and onxieties of his farm, left th* old home
-.tead and removed to Dahlonega, to spend
the evening of his days in comparative quiet.
With the consciousness of a well-spent life,
the old soldi er o* the crosr, resting upon his
grant waited till his change should come.
Two of my brothers were living near, and
this was a source of comfort to him. My
brother M. P. Q. attended to his business,
did all his writing, wrote down his last di
reetions and bequests. When begot through
the venerable old saint said: “Now I would
' not turn over my hand to live erdie.” Some
twenty-eight years ago, I went with my
wife and two children to visit my brothers,
I was anxious to see UdcIb Warwick before
he died, to get his blessings upon myself
and family. I felt that, it would be like a
Patriarchal benediction. He called me son.
I could have set down at his feet, like Mary
of old, and drank in the words which seem
ed like inspiration, falling from the iips o f
one who bad about, finished the journey T
life, and was standing on the top of Pifgah
with the land of promise full in view. My
brother L. W. Q- attended to his request arid
carried his remains to the old burial ground
of Moisey creek church. There by the side
of the wife of his youth, they laid him down
to rest. He sleeps well while Angels watch
the soft repose.
Some years ago I stood near his grave, hi
image was before me. Having served his,
generation by the wil 1 of God, he had fallen
on sitep, and to the general assembly and
Church of the first boin whese names are
written in Heaven -

WAR GOES ON.
A full report of the dead and wounded will bo made out soon as the
smoke clears away, so they can be found. Unawed by opposition and
criticism, our troops have stood the feeble fire of competition like daunt
less giants before a liliputian brigade, and with pluck that would grap
ple with the “devil himse.lt”’ these champions have rode roughshod over
ail opposition, spreading demoralization and disaster in every quarter.
In Saturday’s engagement we made a sweeping reduction in prices and
sent old competion from the field with a.sore head. Our „Howiti-
zers left New York on the 16tb instant and will arrive here on the steam
er ..Invincible” next week. Then we mean to score another victory.

IN MEMORIAM,
[The following lines ere an offering of
friendship and sympathy to the relativts of
tbe late Joshua Wingo.]
Badly you laid him down to rest,
A kind heart, tender and true.
The el-nils c hat fail above his breast.
Make hallowed earth forever blest,
In the grave that kides from view.
Rest faithful heart, no troubled sleep,
Bhall more disturb your swe J t repose,
O'er t hy grave tby friends all weep,
But a faithful watch will ever keep,
’Till their life’s day it hall close.
Look up sad hearts ! left so lone,
With sorrow dar|v as nignt:
We’er crossing over one by one,
We will meet some day around the throne.
And God will make it right.
Mother weep not for your darling,
Who has flown to Heaven away,
For he will even be near you,
Come ane whisper words to cheer you,
Through the night and live long day.
