Out and In.


The readers Of The DEMOCRAT were
informed two weeks ago that it was
the purpose ST Geo. Bolivcr 10 hold
the Office Of clerk Of the court, not
wilhstanding the verdict of the peo.
pie, as declared in the late election,
was overwhelmingly against his. In
deed he had SO long been accustomed
TO rule here that he began to think
the Office, fixtures and profits were
his by possession or some title which
even the people could not annul.
Hence to defend that right his last
drop Of blood and cent of money
stood pledged. From this bold posi-
ton assumed by Bolivcr and these de-
fiant threats the people expected war
ito the knife, and Mr.. Robinson. the
clerk elect, fortified Himself behind
the best ofsurities and the Governors
Commission before making the de-
mand for the surrender Of Holiver's
stronghold. Preparations being com
pleted, the demand was made on Sat
urday last for the unconditional sur
render of Office and contents. This
was refused, or compliance. evatletl

to his best action. Nothing more
nF
Monday morning, about II o'clock,
MIR. Robinson with his chief clerk
Mr.. l.. II. Wannamaker, and few
friends, finding the door opened,
walked into the clerks Office. told
j. G. Bolivcr and DR.. Malone, who
we're writing at their desks, that he
had come to enter upon the duties of
the Office and that he had no use for
them or need tofthcir services. This
was bombshell in the camp, sud-
denly exploded and effective, and
these gentlemen, taking in the stua-
ton, at once rctrcated, leaving Mr..
Robinson master of the field. The
work OF making an Inventory of every
thing i'll the office was Immediately
begun and finally completed. During
the day notice was served on Mr..
Geo. Boliver personally that Mr..
Robinson had assumed the. manage
meEt Of the office and was ready to
give Il receipt for the property.
This was answered by long, point
less and aimless protest which served
only to excite pleasant smile upon
Mr.. Rot,inson's features, because
he knew Roliver was out aud he was
in. Every thing necessary to conduct
the business OF the office successfully
was found except the seal which is
locked up in the safe, the key of Which
Bolivcr refuses to surrender. This,
however, does not materially matter
as the general routine busincs can be
performed without it. Mr.. Robinson
is now ready 10 wait upon our citi-
zens who may have business in his
Office.

A Mystery NIystlied,

New YORK, July 1o.-A special from New
port, r. l., says that the dispatch from New
Orleans referring to missing child was read
by Mr. Hugh Charles, agent for John II. Par
ncl Of West Point, Ga. Mr.. Charles had re-
ocived II letter from his wife at West Point,
Ga, under date of July @. She wrote that a
singular incident has occurred A lady
stepped out upon the platform ora car in tho
depot and handed a bright little boy about
two years of age TO a bystander, who proved to
be William Atkins of West Point. She
requested him 10 keep the child for
u few moments, when his mother, whom she
called Mrs, Evans" would call for him. The
mother" however, who entered the car and
disappeared, did not call, and the boy Is now
In charge Of Atkins. 1t is possible that the
above may form II clue to the VIII ereabous of
tho lad. Atkins Is not spoken of rs . very
likely person to have the custody of the child
aud 1t is barely possible that he and tho mys'
tcrious lady anticipated that q reward would
be offered
