The price of the Weekly News is only SI.OO for six months, or $2.0 0 per year, postage paid. \ At the election last Tuesday a very light vote was polled in this county. The result was 325 for Convention, ahd 317 against. The regular candidates, Messrs. Trammell, Moore, Fain and Carter were voted for very generally, though there were many who voted either for or against Convention and not for delegates. Subscribers heretofore receiving their pipers from the printing office will hereafter find them deposited in the post office. This change is made to our convenience owing to the fact that so many from this list have changed to the post office that there are now only a very few on our printing office list.— We hope this will prove no inconven ience to our subscribers. There is np p< stage to be paid. m \ i Capt. W. V. Findley, from Governor Joe Brown’s farm, showed us some specimens of wheat the other day which were the fiuest we ever saw—long, fine ly developed heads, plump grains and golden stems. The Captaiu tel's us that in all his crop there is not now a stalk of cotton, all the tillable lands be ing devoted to corn, wheat, peas, &c. If all our people would follow this plan of farming, our section would soon be independent instead of depressed by debts and hard times. Ballou’s Monthly Magazine for July. —ln these days of hot weather, it is refreshing to turn to such a light, breezy, wholesome magazine as Ballou’s, and read it all through, from beginning to end.

Those who have had experience in purchasing ar ticles in this lino will readily perceive the extraordinary saving that can be made in ordering from these gentlemen, their prices being almost 50 per cent, lower than other houses have boen sell, ing such goods in this section. They who seek to break down monopoly or extortion by bringing down prices to the lowest living figures are worthy tho aid, encouragement and patronage of the people. These gentlemen will deal fairly and give jou your money’s worth in their line every time. Try them There is an advertisement in our col umns to which we take much pleasure in referring our readers, because we be lieve in it and can ‘conscientiously and heartily recommend it. We refer to Hall’s I)air Renewer. We recommend many casus in our uiid&t of old aud mid dle aged people who formerly wore grey hair, or whose locks were thin and faded, but who now have presentable head pieces, and with no little pride announce to their friends that they haven’t a grey hair in their heads. It is a pardonable pride, and the world i would be better off if there were more of it, for when the aged make them selves attractive to others they are more certain to win and retain the esteem and respect to which a burthen of well spent years entitles them. Try Hall’s Hair Renewer if age or disease has thinned or whitened your locks and vou will thank us for our advice. — Pan- JlandU Neios, WtUsburg , W.

Or ange Judd Company, New York. A Card. Editor Calhoun Times: No person, perhaps, has stronger aversion to appearing be foie the public through the medium of the press than the writer hereof. No one can regret more sincerely the necessity and motive which prompt this article than the un„ dersigned, and I wish it distinctly un derstood that it is not done to bring re proach upon any one, but simply to vin dicate myself from the i.nptUaiion of a flagrant violation of confidence reposed ia me by one who has been made the unfortunate victim of cx'o.-iion , to put it in the mildest terms. Bo it known, then, that on the fourth day of Aprif 1877, Thos. A. Fos.er went “in person” before W S. Job.) son, a Notary Public in and for Goidon county, and made oath that to the best of his knowledge and belief W. L. Hopper (the name of the uian arrested and incarcerated was M. F. Iloppe>), was “a fugitive from jus' 'ce irom the S'-te of Tennessee,” swe ring further that said Hopoer did commit the of fense of larceny; that deponeut intend ed to make application to the Governor of Georgia ‘for the arrest of the said Hopper,” that he might be detained the time required by law for he requisi tion of the Governor of Tennessee, as provided by statute, &c. Upon the af fidavit Judge Johnson issued a wa: ,; *ant, placed it in the hands of W. G. Tay lor, Sheriff, whose execu.ion is verified by the following endorsement: ‘T have this day arrested the body of the said W. L. Hopper and have him now in my custody. This April 4, 1877. v Sig-ed) W. G. Taylor, Sheriff.” Upon a proceeding so irregu f or as the papers show, about which I offer no com meat, Hopper was committed to jail and there restrained of l.is liberty till the morn ing of the fifth of April, the regular Justice Court day for the 819th dis trict G. M. Messrs. Bankin & Gray were employed by the wife of the cc - cused , and the Ordinary, Col. E. J. Kis ker, was actually signing or had just signed the writ of habeas corpus gvant ei upon the a[ plication of said attor neys, when the accused appeared in the court hall in charge of the Sheriff. The subscriber was consulting Hopper when the court sounded the case of “The State of Georgia vs. VV. L. Hopper ” Confident of little or no tioub’e under the law , defendant announced “ready,” when W. J. Cantrell, Esq., had T. A. Foster called, who did not answer, whereupon Col. Cantrell, attorney for said Foster, directed the dismissal of (he warrant, and the court made the following entry thereon : “The within warrant dismissed for lack of prosecu tion. April 5, 1877 (Signed) W. S. Johnson, N. P. & J P. Now, right there and then stood the Sheriff armed with another affidavit made by the same individual as before, (Thos. A. Foster) and warrant, all more formal, and more nearly in com pliance with the “statute iu such cases made and priJvided,” and executed the same by instantly re-arresting the body of Hopper, and committed him (o jail. We then awa.ted the issue of what Foster had sworn he intended to do, to wit: the Governor’s action upon his (Foster’s) application foi Hopper’s de tention. Did he apply to the Governor in terms of the “statute in such cases made and provided” ? Let the sequel tell ; and it is here comes in the part of the story we blush to write, but we shall put it mildly, without comment on all the minutiae of the transaction, and hope it may not be necessary to say more about it in the future. Let the public judge. ’ (Jn Friday evening, the 6th dav of April, the Sheriff informed the prison er that “he could get a lawyer who would release him in two hours.” At whose instance, the message was deliv ered, we can only guess, and we think correctly, for the prosecutor’s attorney, Col. Cantrell, called at the jail the next morning (Saturday) professed great sympathy for the “ criminal ” —was anx ious for his freedom—was offered a “good fee on the other side,” but for his fthe prisoner’s) horse and buggy and twenty-five dollars, he could release him. This was a sympathy that sub tracted from the scanty store of the im prisoned stranger and added largely to the plethoric pocket?* of Messrs. Foster & Cantrell. And here I regret to stale that the Sheriff disclaimed on Sunday morning all knowledge of the circum stances under which Hopper was re- leased, when lam prepared to show that in pursuance of the acceptance of Cantrell's proposition, Mr. Taylor went after Mr. Hardin, a brother-ia-law of Hopper, and charged him two dollars for going, and was present when twen ty-five dollars was paid and the horse and buggy surrendered, and received himself his jail fees. But I must con clude this article, and I do it, with the darkest figure on the canvas, a .Ter af firming postively and unequivocally that I shared none of the spoils, as has been supposed, but remained true to our client, and after being treated with the utmost professional discourtesy, have desisted from an expose of the transaction, hoping the gentlemen con cerned would do us justice before the public. But “the last scene of all that ended this strange, eventful history” is a telling witness to the unfairness of the transaction. Hopper was released about dark on Saturday. 13is horse was taken from the custody of Mr. El lis without his (Ellis’) knowledge or consent and run off that night, and as to his whereabouts I know nothing, nor can I ascertain anything. Is this ev idence of square-handed, fair dealing ? Let the public decide, and now knov, as the impression prevails, that I did not “sell out”-—did not share aoy of the spoils. Very respectfully, W. R. Rankin. P. S.—Tho following is the copy of the oider discharging Hopper, to wit : Georgia, Gordon County. Upon reliable information imparted to me, my understanding is there will be no further prosecution of the fore going case; that there will be no de ni md upon the Governor as contempla ted in the foregoing affidavit, it is there ore ordered by the court that the prisoner be discharged from custody of the She. iff of said county. April 7th, 1877 [Signed] W. S Johnson, N. P. & J. P. The above and foregoing contains a full, true and correct history of the case, so far as I know, not having been a sharer in the spoils, as is believed by some. J. A. Gray Pettengill’s Newspaper Direc tory. Pettengills Newspaper Directory and advertisers hand book for 1877, just is sued by S. M.

This Sarsaparilla is a combination of vegetable alteratives Stillingia, Man drake, Yellow Dock —with the lodides of Potassium and Iron, and is the most efficacious medicine yet known for the diseases it is intended to cure. Its ingredients are so skilfully com bined, that the full alterative effect of each is assured, and while it is so mild as to be harmless even to children, it is still so effectual as to purge out from the system those impurities and corruptions Which develop into loathsome disease. The reputation it enjoys is derived from its cures, and the confidence which prominent physicians all over the coun try repose in it, prove their experience of its usefulness. Certificates attesting its virtues have accumulated, and are constantly being received, and as many of these cases are publicly known, they furnish convincing evidence of the superiority of this Sar saparilla over every other alterative medicine. So generally is its superi ority to any other medicine known, that we need do no more than to assure the public that the best qualities it lias ever possessed are strictly maintained.
