TI?c stock Law.
If there wasnnvthinsr wanting t<> show
the weakness of the cause ??i* liberty I *?
tlie "rnsor back"' in this comity, it was
furnished in the perfect failure of the ??; poll
cuts of t lie stock law to Ji.?M tiiiir
incotiucjon the HTIh ultimo. l'r?>m the
p-mallnessof the attendance at tin* ('our:
House 011 that day it would seem t >! * indeed
a small majf rity cf our citb'.t ns who
desire the right to past tiro their stock on
the crops of their poor neighbors who
are unable to buiUl a fence "horse high,
bull strong and pig tight." It seems to
^ us that nearly all of our citizens i.s
the law a fixed fact and have made, or arc
making preparations, to abide by i' - provisions.
This is right. The opponents
. ' of the old law respected the old law. and
now the opponents of the new law should
submit with e<jual grace until they can
.^induce the Legislature to change it. A
potilion to the Legislature at i:s next s<
sion will be in order, and if ouj members
are convinced that the law is not fi.r the
"onil wo have 110 doubt thev will
r, , _
have it changed. There is 110 use of
senseless abuse of the members who
have acted oonseientiously for (lie juiMi"
pood in the discharge of their duty. We
are satisfied of their desire to benefit the
County. They could have 110 other reason
for passing so important a law.

so important as the ditching business.

loss will be experienced by the community,
and great suffering may he endured
by many of her citizens, cven'if they do
" not lose their lives. The Town Council
and the citizens have the prosperity of
tho town and the lives of individuals in

how they will discharge their duty in

Judge Cook came to town last evning
on business with the Court. He isstil! ?>l'
opinion that tho Democrciic Legislature
failed to treat him right in withholding
^ his pay for services rendered the Pta*e
" /while holding the office of Judge. In
this opinion we fully concur. The
State of *>oiith Carolina should pay her
Judges, even if sho does not pay her
fraudulent bonds. The .Tu.lge is so confident
that the next session of the < Scneral
Assembly will make an appropriation
to jiay her Judges that he would
not now discount his claim to tho amount
of one cent.
Stop It.
Wo think it about time that joke about
the Governor's misfortune had stopped.
It's a breach of good manners to refer
jokingly to the serious loss of any one.

Horrible Tragedy in Atlanta.
flic Atlanta ComtitvHon prints the sad
and sickening details of a cold-blooded murder,
with the causes which prompted the commission
of tiie terrible deed. Mr. Sam. Hill
and Mr. John R. Simmon* met in the barroom
of the National Hole!. and almost immediately
after meeting, Mr. Hill shot Mr.
Simmons, inflicting a fatal wound in the:
head. General rumor stated that Mr. Hill s
wife was conncctwl with theatl'air, and dial
Home wrong to her was the cause of hisaction
in the premises. Mr. Hill gave himself tip|
to a polieeman, was taken to the station
houRe, where he made a statement, to a reporter,
corroborating the rumor. Said lie: i
* "I have been wronged, wronged deeper than]
I can tell you. I have been oil'and on in At- j
lantaseveral years. I have few friends here,'
and many people that are down on me. j ;
t have been wronged. I married a (.'il l here?a
noblewoman. Everybody who saw her lov-!
, ed her. I know that she loved me d< vottdiy.:
. Last fall while I was away, I was w ronged j
? - -- ?wronged deeper than If a man had -hot me,1
and left me tollngeroul my life in pain. Men ,
Who have not wives cannot tell how I was]
wronged, but a man with a mother and a sis-1
tor ought to be able to appreciate it. While I !
waa gone a man went to my wife and got
luto her confidence by representing himself |
as my dear friend. I csiiic back to Atlanta!
and sold pools on tlio city elections, one
night Just after this election I was tip town.1
v. when n friend came to me and told me I had
better go out home. a? some one had gone
there and told my wife that 1 was coining
* home to 1:1 !I Iter. I hastened out tonty hontc
at 200east IJunler Streoi. and found on the
: door a note saying : 'My de.ir hr.-band, good,
hvo. I call veil b.v that name for the last time.
. I am gone.'
"It whs signed l>v my wife. a;ul I believed
that a man camc in a cart luge and took her
away."
The prisoner was then ftcked !f the man he
had shot was the man who h;id wronged him,
* to whfch he replied :
"I never saw him before In inv lifi\but from
the description I have heard, I think, it was
the same man."
Mr. Simmons' friendsgive a version of the
. Htluir very materially different. They say
'that after Simmons was shot, and was lying
on the lloor wh n lie could Jjardly speak for
the blood in his mouth^Bfc brother, Mr.
Moto Simmons, of the flHFof Simmons &
Hunt, camc to him and fne wounded man
said in gasps, "lie shot me for noihing." It is
also denied that Mr. Simmons ever had anything
to do with the wife of Mr. Jiill. Says
the Ojnttitution:
"The case isonoof the most unfortunate we
have ever chronicled. Mr. Simmons is a
young mnn who hus many warm fi Sends here.
He is about twenty-two years old, and is a
member of the Atlanta Cadets, lie is the
proprietor of a drug store on Marietta street,
near the cotton factory."

! ?'?
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.:
I
I)AIN in the right side, under the !
edge of the ribs, increases on pres- !
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side: the natient is rarelv able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is )
felt under the shoulder blade, and it !
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken '
for rheumatism in the arm. The j
stomach is affected with loss of appe-:
titc and sickncss; the bowels in gen- !
eral are costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy !
sensation in the back part. There is j
generally a considerable loss of mem
ory, accompanied with a painful sen- j
sation of having left undone some-.
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
.otfpn^nnl- Tlio l>-ilir>nt /-if
weariness and debility; he is easily,
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-:
, tion of the skin; his spirits are low; i
and although he is satisfied that exer- j
cise would be beneficial to him, yet ;
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above ;
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex?,
isted, yet examination of the body, '
after death, has shown the liver to
have been extensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
Dr. C. McLane's Liver Pills, in
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, are productive of
the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are affiictccl with this ;

For all bilious derangements, and as
a simple purgative, they are unequaled. ; (
