A Negro Homicide.

Last Monday night the colored
population Of 'Fle;cherville," a me-
gro settlem mt just beyond the city
corporation, had school festival
A number Of the elite Of that little
village Africans were there After
the froIic, Charles Hudson, who was
somewhat impregnated with Ben
zine, desired to count the proceeds
of the entertainment, to which Hen
~ Wood, equally concerned, pro-
tested; thought it vas best to alone
allow the committee, then absent, to
perform that part, then no one dare
accuse them of anything amiss.-.
Hudson was determined and count
ed the money Tie only alterna-
tive for Wood was obedient acqui-
escence. or free fight, the former
he chose. Then Hudson began to
gather up the fragments OF the feas',
which did not CONSIST of more than
twelve baskets, and began to dis
tribute to his favorite guests. A
brother in law of Hudson, name I'M
known, Gin fact all three were thus
related,) thought that Wood was
entitled to some of the fragments to
carry to his family, and simply told
Hudson So The fiery Hudson be.
came enraged and avowed che would
kill any d--n man that would inter
fere with him." The subsequent
hour, Hudson approached Wood,
probably emboldened by the ill-feel-
ing excited in the money transaction,
and then a mutual recountre ensued.
Hudson pulled out "a pocket knife,
som ewhat less than Damascus
blade, and thrust it into his food aque-
duct, if not severing the jugular vein,
at least making an opening large
enough for his life to ebb out
Wood, after receiving another stab
in the back, fell bleeding on the
floor and died. Strange to relate,
the next morning, the murderer
gave himself up to the civil officers,
something unusual for negro to do.
He went through preliminary trial
and is now in jail. And thus the
"school festival" resulted in tragic
end-a scene of blood, murder and
imprisonment.

A Happy Occasion

The Good Templar Lodge at this
place was very agreeably surprised
last meeting, Monday night, by a
visiting membership Of twenty-five
ladies and gentlemen from the Allan
ia Lodges. \ cordial reception was
extended and happy evening was
spent. Beauty, flashing eyes, and
tresses, in sea of loneliness, tossed,
waved and circled. Speeches, witt
cisms, repartee, mirth, and vocal
melody, pleasantly prevailed, until
the | 2 o'clock passenger train arriv-
ed, when our friends departed for
the Gate City. We fear many
hearts fell captive to the bewitching
smiles and fascinating charms of the
Atlanta beauties nay, may we not
say, that our own fair ladies, who
shonc with such rcsplendant brillian
cy on that evening, must have been
equally as successful; at all events
two gallant young Atlanteans re-
NAMED over for two succeeding
days.

On Easter Sunday the Episcopal
Church was beautifully decorated
for this festival time. The baptis-
NAL font was filled with a mass OF
evergreen and beautiful fragrant
flowers. The pulpit, lecture stand,
and communion table were also
beautifully trimmed, and over the
chancel arch was an inscriptions
"Christ the Lord is risen to-day
beneath which was pair of beauti-
full hanging baskets Of evergreen
and flowers. A handsome piece Of
plate was added to the communion
plate of the Church, gift Of few
gentlemen of the congregation and
used for the first time on that day.
On Easter Monday, the following

The True Grounds of Confidence

The True Grounds of Confidence.
Whence comes that firm reliance thar abso.
Lutte, undoubting faith in the efficacy Of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters as remedy for indi-
eestion, bilious disorders intermittent and re-
mitrent fevers, which VIGOROUSLY prevail in all
parts Of the United States This confidence has
been growing for twenty years, and it is still
extending 1t is not the result of credulity, it
has not been eueendered by any human device,
but is the spontaneous and natural consequence
OF experience What people see daily going
on under their own eyes they cannot question.
When families in unhealthy districts that re-
sorts to this wholesome vegetable tonic as pre-
ventiye, escape periodical feveis and their
immediate neghbors, who neglect this precau-
ton, are Frustrated by the disease, how is it pos
sibie that the phenomenon should be without
its lesson In like manner when it is seen that
obstinate cases Of dyspepsia, of liver complaint
of constipation, of nervous weakness, and of
general debility, yield to the operation of the
famous remedy, how can even ncredulity itself
withhold its endorsement? Eyewitnesses ofthe
salutary effects OF the Btters are to be found
in every civilized settlement on this continent.
The thousands upon thousands who owe their
restoration to health and strength, or their pre-
servatiou from sickness, to its extraordinary
medicinal properties, are enthusiastic in its
praise. The multitudes who recommend it in
a neighbory way to their friends and acquant
ancrs as well as those who make public their
estimate of its virtues, are always ready to test
their reasons for the faith that is in them. They
have all either felt or witnessed its benefcent
operations.

Carriage Mandatory.

We visited the carriage, buggy
and wagol mandatory of our es-
teemed citizen, II. Reid, few days
ago, and were gratified to see the
enterprise he is using in the prose-
cution Of his business. Vehicles of
various kinds were there as eviden-
ces of his skill, industry and pro-
ficiency. Particularly were we
pleased with a newly constructed
"Pony Phaton," 1t is substantially
made of the best material, handsom-
ly painted by Mr.. Mathews, Of the
firm of ClinkscaIes q Co, in a most
excellent and durable style, We
don't think any vehicle of similar
patent has ever been manufactured
in the State. He is furnishing these
vehicles cheaper than can be pur-
chased in New York. Call and see
for yourselves.

Triplets.

Emigration from Africa, it is true
is debarred, or at least not carried
on, but it seems that the colored
population are determined to take
advantage of this drawback and
make extraordinary efforts in sup
plying the lack of a MayAower's i'm
portation. For instance, Friday
night last, we learn, that colored
woman, named Maria, living in that
part of our city known as Liberia, y
gave birth to three boy children,
two of whom are still living. A
