AN ELOPEMENT SENSATION.
Our neighboring town of Dallas, X. C., has
a first-class sensation, the denouement of which
has just transpired at Conyers, Ga. J. O. II.
Xutall, who at one time publifehed a sort of
newspajjer in Charlotte, hut who more recently
was known at King's Mountain Station as a
repairer of watches, descried his wife and four
children, and e!oi>ed with a Miss Itawling,
daughter of a minister of the Xorthern M. E.
Church, stationed at Dallas. The guilty ones
were discovered at Conyei-s, Ga., and the Examiner
of that place gives the following account
of the affair: "\
For the gratification of the enquiring public,
we give a few facts as related by Mrs.
Rawling, the mother of the young lady who,
it is alleged, was married to Mr. Fontaine,
both of whom came to Conyers several weeks
ago, the alleged husliand engaging in the jewelry
busniess.
Mrs. Rawling says: ".Mr. Fontaine, alias
Xutall, who has a nicewil'e and four children
at home, was made to leave his boarding house,
in Dallas, X. C., becaise he failed to pay his
board. He then appli?d to her to rent some
rooms for his family, vhieh she did. He engaged
in business at King's Mountain, visiting
his wife regularly every Saturday night,
and seemed to get aloig as agreeably as two
people could. X utall wis organist in a church
at Dallas, and becamt intimate with Miss
Rawling, her daughter, at choir meetings, and
she became encicnte bylrira during the latter
part of 1870, or the firsi part of 1880, during
which time his family lived in her (Mrs. Rawling's)
house. He coiresponded with Miss
Rawling, while at Kind's Mountain, as R. H.
Fontaine, many times delivering his own letters,
and praising Fontaine to Mrs. and Miss
Rawling, telling them what a "fine, nice fellow
he was,' etc., seemingly, to be very much
interested in Miss Kite Kawling's welfare,
saying, 'she ought to marry Fontaine by all
*
means. jiiu, uuiu mayiciuucu lunu ovmcthing
was the matter with Miss Kawling, who
denied all until she cfruld hide it no longer,
when her father, whofis presiding elder of a
Methodist district conference, in North Carolina,
carried his daugliter to an extreme part
of the Statej leaving ker in care of a friend.
Fontaine, alias Xutallj says he followed them,
unbeknown to her father, on the same train,
and eloped with Miss Rawling. This was in
June or July last. Xutall says himself they
traveled together thruugh Tennessee, Ohio
and Illinois, assuming different names, thinking
some of the Iiawliig family were in pursuit,
and says die kne*' he would be killed if
they caught him for stealing his wife, and
that he didn't want any trouble about it.'
Mrs. Rawling says she never knew any better.
after she learned ;hat her daughter had
run away, and seeing anotice of her marriage,
but that she had really married a Mr. Fontaine,
until she came to Conyers to see her
daughter and son-in-law, when behold ! the socalled
FI. K. Fontaine w?s the veritable J. 0. II.
Xutall in disguise?his ml hair and whiskers
dyed black as a crow, wearing spectacles and
walking lame with a cate.'
Mrs. Rawling was al*iast .heart broken at
this state of affairs, and persuaded her daughter
to go home with lie-, which she agreed to
do, but the father made her leave the child,
saying die had stolen li/s wife, and if she carried
the child her parents would persuade her
to quit him.' Miss Rawling had been gone
but a few days, wheu those whom the child
was left with, .were growing suspicious that
something was wrong, and the baby was given
to ffrst one and then another, all thinking
probably the father might leave and somebody
. .would have the baby left 011 their hands. Fi.
' nally, thef child was given to a negro woman,
and some one wrote to the mother the condition
of her child, etc.
The Rev. Mr. Rawling agreed for his daughter
to come for her balie, and he would take
her home if she would promise him, from that
day, she would let Xutall go, and have nothing
more to do with him. She promised that she
_would, and Mrs. Rawling and her daughter
enine for the hahv last, week Thev remained
here several days/ Mrs. Hau ling sat up every
night, with Xutall and hei daughter, during
their stay here. She says Xutall will not go
home with them, notwitbstanding they all
-left together on hist Sunday for North Carolina.
* It is the opinion of those who are acquainted
with the actions and conduct of Miss Rawling
and Xutall towards each other, while
here, up to the time of their departure, that
she will eventually live with Xutall, and not
go to her father. Miss Rawling acknowledged
that they were never married, and that
Xutall had a nice devoted wife and four children,
who are now with Mrs. Xutail's father,
a highly respectable physician, at Wadesboro,
X. C.
(ST Col. A. K. McClure, editor of the Philadelphia
Tinies, having finished his tour of observation
through the South, has embodied an exhaustive
resume of his impression in a communication
to his paper. He does not find the South
altogether lovely, but he deals manfully with the
chief i>oints of interest and tells what he conceives
to be the truth without fear or affection.
He declares that the South is not animated
by partisan hostility to the coming
President, and that there is no desire to command
the spoils of power, but there is an
earnest and almost universal desire for peace?
that peace that an honest government should
ever give to an honest people. The supreme
want of the South, he says, is a thoroughly
competent and upright civil service, and that
should not be sought as favor from any faithful
President. This heasseitsis not only a
matter jpf right to every section, but it is a
matter of imperative duty on the part of the
government.
A Washington dispatch of the 30th ultimo
says that the court martial in the case of Cadet
Whitaker has been ordered to convene at West
Point on Tuesday, January 18th. BrigadierGeneral
Miles is to he president of the court.
The following is the detail of the court: Brigadier-General
X. A. Miles, president of the
court; Col. JP. A. Morrow, 21st infantry;
Lieut. Col. Pinckney Lugenbeil, 1st infantry ;
Lieut Col. J. M. Brannon, 1st artillery; Maj.
Lewis Merrill, 7th cavalry; Mnj. E. B. Sumner,
oth cavalry; Capt. 11. T. Frank, 1st artillery
; Capt. J. X. Craig, 10th infantry ; Capt.
Merritt Barlter, 10th Infantry; Maj. A. B.
Gardner, Judge advocate of the court.
The report of the Internal Revenue Bureau
shows that about 414,000,000 gallons of fermented
liquors were returned for taxation in IK80,
or about double the quantity of 1K7<>. Estimating
our population at 50,<>00,000 this would
give about eight and a quarter gallons per
capita, or say a square drink to every man
woman and child every eighteen hours through
t lie year.

fey The federal government has issued the first
volume of the official records of the late civil
war, the publication of wlbeh was ordered by
Congress. The first volume is principally devoted
to the operations in Charleston burlaw,
the seige and surrender of Fort Sumter, and
the beginning of the war.

and some business.
Twelve times has the York Drug Store man
listened to the funeral chimes of a dying year.
Twelve times have joyous bells smote upon his
ear announcing the birth of another?and twelve
times has he stood upon the threshold of the new
year and proclaimed greeting to his friends and
patrons.
In retrospecting the past we are wont to recall
only the pleasing recollections and cherished
memories. If it were otherwise, and we could
! only remember its asperities, its disappoint
! merits, its nusiortunes, its struggles, its iauures
and alienations, it would indeed be a city of the
plain, a Sodom, that we dare not look baclt upon.
In reviewing the twelve years of our proprietorship
of the York Drug Store, many pleasant
remembrances recur of customers made who
have continued to patronize tis through all the
years, of acquaintances formed that have ripened
into warm personal attachments, few, if any
alienation of friends, and a degree of success in
business whilst small, perhaps commensurate
with our efforts and deserts.
In the year that is before us, we hope to retain
every patron that we have made in the past and
add many others to the list, and we promise that
in our line of goods they shall have every advantage
in purity and price that can be had in any
other market. We expect to deal honestly with
all people, from policy, if from no higher incentive.
JOHN C. KUYKENDAL.
P. S.?We have recently sent out about 500
circulars that are of great importance to farmers,
and we beg that those who have received them
will carefully read the letters contained therein.
N. B.?Persons indebted to us on account of
last year and the year before, are notified that
they will be approached in person, or statements
sent by mail and settlements insisted on. We
are no Vanderbilt that we can telescope the account
of one year in that of another indefinitely.
I have associated Thomas W. Clawson with me
in the sale of Standard Acid Phosphates and Ammnniatcd
Bone Superphosphates. Our goods
will show an analysis as high a? any in the market,
and will be sold at prices that rule for such
goods.

who can secure the payment of the goods beyond
the question of a doubt. As in previous years,
we have sold goods on time and our friends have
been prompt in paving for them, We ask a continuance
of the same again, and we expect to
