Kiker, we leant, has becri appointed short*hand reporter, for this bircuit under th • late aet ul'tlie Getter j Assembly providing one for each cir cuit in the State. We have received the March number of the Kenncfsaw Route Gazette As usual it is live and spiey.— Each subscriber sending 25 cents for the paper for one year, receives a cer tificate entitling the holder to a chance in a drawing, to be held June Ist, 187 0 for a round trip ticket from Atlanta to the Centennial, at Philadelphia. Dirty and shoeless almost, the last tramp came in to see us thte week. He hadn't eaten anything in three days lie said his uume was Jordan Strange to say, marly a yv:tv ago, he came by and gave bis name a jee, and we told him cf this he and found toe two names wo Idn't mix, and skyooted out with few words, spending no time in making an explanation. The temperance demonsti alien last Saturday night was generally attended' by ( ur people, both ladies and gentle men. S R Freeman and J A.

Next Satur day night another meeting will be held at the Church and all who fe 1 interest ed in ttie cause are invited to c.tlie out, '1 hey will be entertained! We have recited ft our Miss Lillie D< naux a beautiful wreath and boquet consisting of ti-sue flowers so delicate ly arid harmoniously interwoven with cedar as fo almost bear perfect, compari son with the natural. Mi US Lillie kept the fi wer stand at the supper W ednes day night in bchal of the Baptist Church, and by the perseverance and taste in her department rendered much aid in raising the flattering amount of funds realized from the un detlakirg. Though circumstances un avoidable prevented our attendance at either, we learn the supper and enter tainments proved a great success', and the ladies feel proud in the realization of the important sum of over one hun dred dollars. Pretty fair for these hard times. Spooling AI fray. On lust Thursday evening, between tin- eo and four u Clock, a difficulty nc> currod between \\ il. Black and John Holding, in which both parties were wounded, but nut seriously. The ditli culty, w e have been told, grew out of an old grudge. The shooting commenced at Matt Ballew’s saloon. Bolding fired first with a small derringer known as the Southerner, the shot striking Bh ck on the side but happening to glance oil one of the buttons on his pants did not take a serious effect. Bolding finding his only loadgoue, went into the rear of the saloin to reload. Black jr cured a revolver auu met Bold ing again at Hick’s store, where the two exchanged shots. A shot from Black’s pistol passed through Holding's hand and lodged just below the collar bone. Holding's pistol being again empty, he fled, lea ng in the direction of the M. E Church, Black firing the ast shot, the ball missing him eoh e ly. Bolding was at ast conveyed to the drug stole of Beeves & Malone, and the ball which e n te under his eoilarhone was Search e d br but could not bo found 'fhe condition of j neither of the men is an d ruU s, we I learn. The affair is generally regretted.

Hi 6 St ' I Grand Jury I’rest. We, the Grand Jury, chosen' aim sworn, for the first week of March term of the Superior Court of Gordon county, Ga., beg leave to make the fol lowing general preset tments : We have examined the public build ings of our county, and find them in good condition, except some breaks in the perti'i n walls of the Court House; to which we respectfully call the atten tion of the Board of County Commis si )tiers. We also find upon examination that the dockets of the several J. P.s and N. P s are incorrectly kept except the dock ets of the 1003 1064 and 1055. Ip that they have failed to itemize their co t and we would refer them tosecti n 4505 of Irwin’s revised Code of Geor gia °’ 4 ' We also find from the report subuiita ted to us by the commitee appointed by the last Grand Jury to examine the va rious county officers, that the books of said officers are neatly and correctly kept in suitable and well bound books. Said report, also shows a balance in our treasury ot three th usand and seventy five dollars. We fi:icl the public roads throughout , tin c )Uoty in is _ and condition or per- ' hips bet.er han they have been in several years, and while we cast no re flections upon the ’Fortner Grand Jury we are satisfied from facts mule fully developed that the Commissioners of the Bth district were improperly re turned to that body. We have elected Capt. Wylie Dyer and N. J. Boaz to fill the vacancy in the Board of Educa tion caused by the expiration of the term of Cart. Dyer and 11. C Bunt. We fix the per diem of jurors and bailiffs, lor th* 1 present year at two doL lars. We would respectfully ask the county Board of Commissioners that they guard against further outlay of the county funds on public bridges or oth“r purposes for the present year, ex ccpt in cases of actual necessity and woul 1 recommend the per cent, levied upon the State tax be as light as the necessity in their judgeme- t requires. In taking leave of bis Honor, Judge 0, I). McCutchen we tender him our thanks ibr the able and impartial man ner in which he has discharged his Ju lies and courtesies to this body, and al -o to the Solicitor -General, A.

Experience of a Young Woman. - A country girl, young, pretty, and hap r y. her step was elastic and the roses of health bloomed upon her cheek One spring morning she was overtaken bv a “ spring shower.” and caught a cold.
