Mysterious Disappearance.

Henry Davis, a colored man, living in
Paulding county, near the line of Cobb,
was arrested on the night OF the 2Sth of
January by James Hogan, Lee Vernon and
James Mobley, and they tied his hands be-
hind him, After carrying him short dis
lance, to the residence of Lee Vernon, they
say the negro called for drink of water
and while the guard jim Mobley was get
ting the water he made his escape by flight
The negro has not been seen nor heard Of
since. A party ofpersons thinking strange
of the sudden disappearance OF the negro,
went in search OF him some days after the
act Being shown by the wife OF Mr.. Yer
non the exact direction that the negro took,
they proceeded few hundred yards from
the house and fodnd the rope with which
he is said to have been tied. This rope
was tied in several hard knots and had on
it a little dry blood. The party on return
ing to Mr. Vernon's house, were ordered
off the premises by Mr.. Vernon who had
returned home
The said Henry Davis, was charged with
having made improper proposals to Mrs.
Mobley, white lady. The families of
Mobley and Davis have been very intimate
friends, the former getting most of their
provisions from the latter for some days
1t is said that Mrs. Mobley and her hus-
band both took dinner at Henry Davis af-
ter the alleged crime is said to have been
committed. The parties were arrested and
tried for murder, but were acquitted on the
ground that it was uncertain, as the body
had not been found.

Encouraging Outlook
lgacrAmsuto Zee

Where is the California farmer who
can find it in his querulous heart to
grumble at the climatic prospects of
1883? The new year has been launched
into time under the most favorable au.
spices possible. The storm of snow and
rain which commenced on Sunday and
ended last night was most timely, as the
ground was Just beginning to feel the
need of good wetting, and it got it
after the most approved fashion. 1t is
not the heavy and brief showers that
help crops SO much as the steady, fine
rain, such as fell yesterday in most
parts of the State. These are very pen.
etrating, and find their way TO the roots
Of everything growing In the coil. At
this time there is very little good grain
land--ever before cultivated-that Is not
sowed to wheat and other grain crops,
with the addition Of much new soil; and
the farmer can now rest on his oars and
'let Nature take its course" Nothing
