CoRYpoN, Indiana, is just now
the scene of excitement, The Rev.
Mr.. Lothario Hueripg, of the Meth
odist Church. attempted to kiss a
handsome lady of his congregation,
proceeding to which the lady so
decidedly demurred that her screams
called her husband, who was at
work in the field. That gentleman,
though devout member OF the
church. could not exactly see the
propriety of sharing the conjugal
kiss with his beloved pastor. He
therefore put on very belligerent
aspect and chased Lothario to his
horse and stoned him as he rode
away. Thereupon charges were
made before the Church, before the
Masonic Fraternity, and before the
courts.

DEMOCRATIC ORGANIZATION
AND HARMONY.

1t is painful condition Of things
to state when we say that the Dee
mocracy of the seventh COMPRESSION
al district is seriously divided it is
more painful to state that there is
great reason to fear that the diyis-
ion may result in the election Of
Republican to Congress. The dan
ger is greater that such a result will
follow than it was two years ago -
Then the extent of the breach in the
Democratic ranks was not so well
understood by the Republicans as it
is nor. Consequently, the Republi-
cans did all they could to aid in that
breach. Having secured the breach
it is not at all improbable that they
will not fail to take advantage of the
breach they ailed in producing to
place in Congress one of their own
number. The opportunity of the
Republican party in this Congress
ional campaign they hope will be
presented to it in the still greater
breach they hope to find in the Dem
ocratic party, If the vote Of our
party should be any ways nearly di>
vided between the nominee and an
Independent candidate, we may ex-
pect to realize with sorrow and dis
grace the fact that Republican will
20 to Congress from this district.
We thus discuss the subject as a
warning to the Democratic party
and to point out danger that must
be avoided if possible. The Repub~
Leans are organizing with the view
of success through Democratic dis
organization. Already it is stated
that Mr.. Il. B. Hargrove is to be
the Republican candidate for Cons
gress in this district. The contest
of two years ago encourages the
hope of that party that success may
rest with them in a contest with a
divided Democracy. 1t is certainly
not impossible or improbable that
such result may not follow any Sc
rious division in the Democratic
ranks. The question of such con-
tingency is too serious to be treated
lightly or with Indifference. 1t is
sufficient to make every Democrat
reflect seriously as to what should
be his duty in the outset of the cam
paign. Every Democrat is respon,
sible to the cause of Democratic sue
cess and Republican defeat to the
extent of his vote and influence
Therefore, let no Democrat risk, too
carelesSly, the casting of his inHu-
ence, against Democratic organiza>
ton. - CmterSrHe Express.

THE GEORGIA GOLD FIELDS.

Mr.. O. p. McRoberts, of Nashville
who has just returned from visit
to the gold fields in Northern Geor-
gia, made the following interesting
tatement in the Nashville AMERICAN.
"In company with Col. w. A.
IIoskins, of Chattanooga, which
place we left the 9Th August, taking
the Western and Atlantic Railroad
to Marietta, Ca, when we left the
cars and took buggy to Cherokee
county, lying north of Marietta, and
being country lying in the center
of what is known as the g0ld belt
We visited many old diggings and a
good many new enterprises just starts
ing up, with fine prospects of success,
reaching at distance of 30 miles
northeast of Marietta. Col. Hoskins'
Franklin mines, a valuable gold
property, purchased by him some two
years ago, and 70. merly owned and
very successfully worked by Mr..
Franklin. The property is lmmedi
ately on the Etawa river, and has a
splendid stamp>mill, with ten stamps,
the best stamp mill in the State, and
has power amble to run 80 stamps,
and from January to January. lie
has about 600 acres in the tract,
most of it fine bottom land, upon
which he has growing a splendid corn
crop. He is now engaged in sinking
a shaft and at the depth of G2 feet
he cut vein of very rich reddish,
brown quartz, and fine gold dissem-
mated through it, visible to the max
ed eye, and in large quantities, pro-
nouuced by the miners to be exceed
ingly rich. At the surface the weir
was only a few inches in thickness
but at the depth of c. feet it hac
reached in width 4 feet inches, anc
had gradually thickened all the way
"Mrs Franklyn sunk shaft lOC
feet deep some 200 yards nearer the
river, and at that depth she wa'
working a , foot vein of rich quartz
ore, but for want of sufficient ma
chinery to keep the water out hac
to abandon it, and it has all fallen in
"The works are under the super
intendency of Capt. Ham, and We
we're kindly and well entertained by
the Captain and his amiable lady.
"There is considerable excitement
in that country, and many strangers
and capitalists are making large in
vestments in gold property and maxi
inc preparations to work. At this
season the natives are extensively
in panning for gold, and generally
make from S to 81, per hand, per
day.
ave visited many interesting
places, some of which presented pros
poets very hattering for success and
as soon as capital gets there, North
Georgia will produce a vast quantity
of gold.
Crops are exceedingly fine in that
country, and, perhaps, the best and
largest corn crop ever raised, and
the cotton looks as well as could be
wished for"
