A special to the eTimes-Democrat, from
Chattanooga. Of August 10th, says: For
several months past the citizens of Dal-
ton, Ca, have been very much annoyed
By the lawlessness Of disreputable set
who lived about the suburbs, and recent
ly they became very bsld and peculiarly
offensive.
Las: night fifty men, all well disguised
entered the city shortly after midnight
and visited notorious house owned by
Mrs. Jane Kidd. The woman and six of
her boaders were dragged from their beds
and each one given fifty lashes. Some of
the women are in critical condition and
may die.
The band then went to the house OF
Tom Carver, = noted thief. aud beat him.
He resisted, and, after torfuring him for
half an hour, the mob shot him to death.
A negro man, named Armstead, was so
terribly beaten that he viii die. The band
notified several persons to leave the place
at once or they would be killed. They
then visited the mayor and served notice
on him that the laws against vagrancy
must be more rigidly enforced and all
lawless characters must be driven out.
The processing has created The most in
tense excitement throughout North Gecr-
ia. There = no clue 70 the identity Of

a neighboring village to engage coolies
for digging a grave and carrying the

Increase Of Cancer

If the data Of the registrar generals

According to a French observer, about

among animals, more frequently among

be applied at the earlier stages Of the

While yet thy fresh and virgin soul
Inform'd the column'dP arthenon,

So fair in Southern sunshine bathed.
But scarce of such majestic mien
AS here with forehead yapor-swathed
In meadows ever green;
For thou-when Athens reign'd and Rome,
Thy glorious eyes were dimm'd with pain
To mark in many a freeman's home
The slave, the scourge, the chain;

In motion to the distant CLEAN,

May jar thy golden diam,
Who, like great Nature, wouldst not mar
By changes all too fierce and fast
This order OF our Human Star,
This heritage of the past;
o scorner of the party cry
That wanders from the public good,
'Thou-when the Nations rear ON high
Their idol smear'd with blood,
And when they roll their idol down
OF saner Worship sanely proud;
Thou leather of the lawless crown
AS of the lawless crowd;
How long thine ever growing mind
Hath stilrd the blast and strewn the wave,
Though some oflate would raise a wind
To sing thee to the grave.

Unfurnisn'd brows,~ tempestuous tongues.
