SHOOTING AFFRAY.--E. II. Barton,
W. F. Gary, Van B. Hendricks, John
Jamison and Charley White, on last
Thursday night or Friday morning,
arrested man by the name of Reds
mond, from North Carolina, and cap-
tu1ed his wagon and team and about
rs gallons of hiskoy. Redmond, we
are informed, is the man who killed
Duckworth, Revenue official, in
Transylvania County, North Carolina,
last fall, and thero is said to bo $500
reward for him in that State. Rod.
mond and another man who was with
him, were sleeping in an unoccupied
house, in the lower section of this
County, near Mr.. Fowler's, when Bar
ton and company came upon thom.
They rushed in, covered them with
their doublo>barrolod shot-guns, made
them surrender and tied them. Bar
ton, VIC arc informed, struck and kick
cd Redmond, after he was tied which
made him very angry. This acton
on tho part of Barton, it is thought by
somo, was the primo cause of tho tor
riblo vengonco, Redmond subsequent
y wreakod upon his captors. Watch.
ing his opportunity, he gave a leap
into the woods, and disappeared quick.
" in the darkness of the night. Mans
aging to unto himself and procuring
weapons, he soon returned and fred
into the party, wounding Barton and
Hendricks. Barton was wounded in
the right arm and thigh with buck
shot, painfully, but not dangerously
Mr. Hendricks was shot in the hin
l. thigh and knee with buckshot also
and now lies in q precarious condition,
though his friends havo hopes of his
recovery. Redmond, aftor lurking
"roundin the noighborhood a day or
two, returned it is thought to his re-
Greats in the mountains of North Carr
olina. He is said to have Indian blood
in his veins, and to bo a desperate
man.

Used in nearly every locality in many

Settled beyond q doubt-No one questions
the fact that more cases Of whites, suppress
sed and irregular monsos and uterine obs
structions, of every kind, are being daily
cured, by DR.. j. Bradfelds Female REGULATOR
than by all other remedies combined. Its
success in Georgia and other States is beyond
precedent in the annals of phisio. Thousands
OF certificates from women everywhere pour in
upon the proprietor. The attention of prom
inent medical men is aroused in behalf of this
wonderful compound, and the most success
full practitioners use it. IF women suffer here

,CARTERsvILLE, GR., April 26, 1869. This
will certify that two members Of my imme-
dlate family, after having suffered for many
years from menstrual irregularity, and having
been treated without benefit, by various med
ical doctors, were at length completely cured
by one bottle Of DR.. J. Bradhclds FEMALE
REGULATOR. therefore deem it nv duty
to furnish this certificate, with the hope of
drawing attention of suffering womenkind to
the merits of a medicine whose power in cur>
ing irregular and suppressed menstruation,
has been proven under my own personal OBJ
scrvatlon. It's effect on such cases is truly
wonderful, and we'll may the remedy be called

The different editions of TIE SUN during
the noxt year will be the same as during the
year that has passed. The daily edition will
on weak days be q sheet of four puges, and on
Sundays sheet OF eight pages, or SO broad
columns; while the weekly edition will be o
sheet of eight pages Of the same dimensions
and character that are already familiar to our

The Sun will continue TO be tho strenuous
advocate of reform and retreuchmcnt, and of
the substitution Of craftsmanship, wisdom,
and integrity for hollow prctcncc, imhccility,
ana fraud IN the administration Of public af~
fairs. 1t will contend for the government of
the people by the people and for the people,
as opposed to government by frauds in the
ballot box and in the counting Of votes en-
forced by military violence. 1t will endcavor
to supply It's rC0dCrS-a body now not for
from million Of souls-with the most care
full, complete, and trusiworty accounts of cur.
rent events, and will employ for this purpose,
q numerous and carefully selected staff of re-
portcrs and correspondents. It's reports from
Washington, especially, will be full, accurate,
and fearless; and it will doubtless continue to
deserve and enjoy the hatred Of those who
thrive by plundering the Treasury or by
usurping what the law does not give them,
while it will endcaVOr 10 merit the confid encc
Of the public by defending the rights of the
people against the cncroachments Of unjusti-
fled power.
The price of the daily Sun will be IS cents

An Unlucky Man.

The unhappy Kentuckian, who bet on
every race during the week, and lost
every time, illustrates the freaks of
fortune in this respect. He had just $50
left, and in sheer desperation cried out
in the crowd that assembled at the hotel
after the races "I'll bet $50 l can
name two men here with twenty-three
fingers" When the bet was taken, this
child of fate continued: Anybody
IL do. Here, my friend, I'll take you.
| have thirteen fingers, and you have
ten, that makes twenty-three. I knew
there was one bet I could not lose. .
The stranger gazed at him a moment
with a plying expression, and then said,
compassionately: Swell, Tn sorry for
you. You have struck hard streak of
luck. Ihad three Of nay fingers shot off
at Chickanaauga !''-Nas7aville Tenn. J

RABIES.
The Feelings of a Mad Dog.

1t is no pleasure to dog to go mad.
Dreadful as hydrophobia is to the human
being, rabies is worse to the dog. It
makes it's approach more gradually it
lasts longer, and it is more intense while
it endures. The dog that is going mad
feels unwell for long time prior to the
full development of the disease. He is
very i'll, but does not know what ais
him. He feels dissatisfied with every
thing, vexed without reason, and
greatly against his better nature, snap
pish. Feeling thus, he longs to avoid
all annoyance by being alone. The SEN
sation induces him to seek solitude. The
light inficts upon him intense agony.
This induces him to find out the holes
and corners where he is least likely to
be noticed. Ii his retreat be discovered,
and the masters voice bids him come
forth, he leaves his hiding PLACE, anxious
to obey the loved authority But, before
he has gone half the distance, kind of
sensation comes over him which pro-
duces an instantaneous change in his
whole appearance. He suddenly darts
back into his dark corner. IF let alone,
there he will remain, drinking great
deal of water, but not seeking food. His
appetites are altered Hair, straw, dirt,
filth, rags, stones-the most noisome
substances the poor dog longs to swal-
low, in hopes to ease a burning stomach.
He is now altogether changed. Still, he
does not desire to bite mankind; he
rather endeavors to avoid society. He
takes long journeys to vent his restless
desire for motion. He does not walk,
he does not run. He proceeds in kind
OF trot. His eyes do not glare or stare,
but are dull and retracted. His tongue
hangs dry from his open mouth, from
which there drops no foam. He can
not stay to bite. If, nevertheless,
anything opposes his progress, he
will, as if by impulse, snap
AS man, in similar state, might
strike, and tell the person to g get out
the way" If he returns home from
these excursions he seeks the darkness.
His thirst increases, but with it comes
swelling Of the throat. He will plunge
his head into the water, but not drop
can he swallow. The throat is enlarged,
SO that nothing can pass. His state of
suffering is pitiable. He flies at, and
pulls to pieces, anything within his
reach. He emits the most hideous cries.
The noise. he makes is incessant and pc
culiar. II begins as bark is quickly
changed to howl, which is suddenly
cut short in the middle and so the poor
wretch at last falls, fairly worn out by
the terrible disease.

Writing to the Newspapers.

Never write with pen or ink. It is al
together too plain, and doesn't hold the
mind of the editor and printers closely
enough to their work.
IF you are compelled to use ink, never
use that vulgarity known as the blotting-
pad. If you drop blot of ink on the
paper, lick it off. The intelligent COM
position loves nothing so dearly as to read
through the smear this will make across
twenty or thirty words. We have seen
him hang over such piece of copy half
an hour, swearing like pirate all the

Don't try to write too plainly. It is a
sign of plebeian origin and public-school
breeding. Poor writing is an indication
Of genius. It's about the only indica-
ton of genius that a great many men
possess. Sprawl your articles with your
eyes shut, and make every word as illeg-
ible as you can. We get the same price

Of the first page, closing your article by
writing the signature just above the date.
