FISHING WITH DYNAMITE.-In sew
OF the counties in northern Georgia
there is much excitement over a new and
terrible method Of killing fish, which is
being pfactised with great efficacy.
When the Government surveyors were
improving the beds of the Etowah and
Co0sa Rivers they used. dynamite in
blasting rock It was discovered that
the explosions were very fatal to the
fish ali around them. Tile shock was
80 terrible that hundreds of dead or
stunned fish would rise to the surface
and be easily taken. The people around
thecountfy heard of this destruction of
fish, and resolved. to put it to practical
use. They procured a number of dyna-
mite cartridges and began such a killing
of fish as was never heard of before.
The practice rapidly spread until now
it is common in several counties in
north Georgia. A place in the stream
is baited well for several days until
fish congregate thickly there. Then the
managers OF the destructive plans 20 to
work, The dynamite cartridges is placed
deep under the water. 1t is exploded
by means of q small galvanic battery or
by some cheaper method. A terrible
stir is made in the water, and for yards
around fish are killed by the hundreds.
We learn that not far from Gainesville,
the other day, 300 pounds of fish were
thus killed in one stream. The news
Of this ,practice il rapidly spreading,
and wherever it is heard Of there is q
desire to try it. The destruction Of fish
in the streams and ponds is consequently
terrible. Much Indignation is felt by
those who deem this an extravagant
waste Of fish, but there seems to be no
way to prevent it, From the Atlanta
Constitution.

Stealing a Tombstone.
A REMARKABLE CASE THAT CAME UP IN
A CARSON CITY, NEVADA, COURT THE
OTHER DAY.
Virginia City Chronicle

Virginia City Chronlcle.J
William Boggs was arraigned before
Justice Cary, of Carson, yesterday
charged with grand larceny. The
charge made by the arresting officer
was that a tombstone had been stolen
by the defendant from the cemetry. 1t
appears says the Appeal, that the officer
was passing near the consecrateG spot
at night, when he saw Boggs staggering
along with a tombstone on his back.
The tombstone was exhibited TO the
jury: 1t read:
"Sacred to the memory Of w. Boggs-.
stone. Died Jan. 3, 1856. "A kind
father, an indulgent husband and a
true man. ReQuiescdt in pace"
Boggs, the defendant, went on the
he had taken the tombstone. 1t was
SO near like his own name thar, by fill
ing up the supertiuous letters with
plaster Of Paris lie could use it himself
in case he died.
The Court--You have the appearance
Of being pretty healthy man. Why do
you expect to diea
Boggs-I am going to Bodie to start
in business, and
The Court Oh, I see the pneumonia
But even if you do die, as | have no
doubt you will, why do You steal an
other mars tombstone? Do you really
think it's the correct thing.9
Boggs--lf man had the use OF a
tombstone since 1856, it strikes me he's
got his moneys worth Besides this
stone was blasted lie all over. Bill
Boggstone wasn't kind husband and
an indulgent father. He was,a thieying
three-card moDte-sharp, and had killed
four men. A meanor scalawag never
was born. When he first came out here
in 40 he used to shave off the corners
of $50 slugs, and pay off his hands in old
bills on the Farmers of New Haven.
We know him.. cried several of the
jury I" lie was the worst III the deck"
One Of the jurors went on the stand
and testified that he saw the man run
out of Placeryille in '52 for robbing hen
roosts. He turned widow out in
snow storm because she couldn't pay
the house rent. Several old-timers in
the courtroom testified to the scampish
character OF the deceased. One man
swore that the brother Of Boggstone put
the tombstone up and did it in the night.
Tt was a monumental lie and disgrace
to tile cemetery &N~ " IT. NJ y
The jury acquitted, and Mr.. Boggs
left on the stage for Bodie with the
tombstone.

The publishers of the New Orleans Times
wish especially at this time that every citizen
of this State should be a subscriber or reader of
the Times. Questions OF the greatest impor-
lance to Louisiana are pending waiting solution.
A convention OF her delegates are now in ses-
sion drafting an organic law for adoption to
replace the present constitution, and which 1t
is hoped will radically reform those fearful
abuses, wasteful extravagancies and gross in
justices which have been nurtured by it and
have grownup underit. The subject Of restric-
tive quarantine as to its efficacy in preventing
the introduction Of the scourge of yellow fever
and its acknowledged blghting effects upon the
business and prosperity OF the city OF New Or
leans and the State, is now engrossine TO n
large extent public attention. Other vital aues-
tons, such as labor, Immigration, railroad com
munications with our neighboring State of
Texas, removal OF the State capital, etc, de-
mand constant consideration and discussion.
The publishers of the Times refer with pride
to the position taken by the Times on all of
these questions. Their inspiring motive has
been the good of the State and her people, for
upon her prosperity, development and growth
depend their compensation and reward. From
no other source can they expect to subserve
these ends.
The thorough independence of the Times, it's
strength courage and consistency in the discus
sion of all questions, its interchangeable and per-
sistent labors to restore the wonted prosperity
of the South, have made it recognized through
out the country as the leading Southern journal
and made it quoted everywhere as the repre-
sentative of the best Southern thought and
.-.
The publishers wish that a copy may be
placed in the hands of every citizen Of this State,
that he may judge by perusal Of its merits, of
its consistency, OF its motive
AS a newspaper giving all the news of the
days as commercial paper, showing all the
movements OF business and commerce as an
organ OF the people, representing and conserv-
ing their best and highest interests, they claim
the Times to be without a rival i'll the South
