Pioneer Welcomes Correction.

"Pioneer" makes, with pleasure,
the needed apology for the state
ment given to the columns of the
Journal in late issue, in regard to
the early training one of Marietta's
eminent citizens, the Hon. Geo. D.
Rice 1t was in December '35 that
the writer's father came to the place
when he himself was less than three
years of age. He knew Judge Rice
from his childhood upward, but of
course it was not until he was verg-
ing towards manhood that he could
discover much difference between
man of culture and any other man,
and at that later day Judge Rice
had won honorable distinction in
his chosen profession. The misap-
prehension grew out of a converse
ton that the writer listened to, in
the long ago, between two of the
Judges former friends and neighbors
now ACKNOWLEDGMENT they dis
cussed his early struggles, his high
attachments, his success, etc., when
the ''idea" was fixed upon his
mind, that the Judge was what is
termed ''self-made" or self-educat-
ed man.

is invited, as the writer is by no
means iufallible in these old memo
ries, and if he now and then mad

LITERALLY TORN TO PIECES.

James Rife, farmer living near
Shippensburg, Pa, keeps three full
blooded English bulldogs. On Sat
urday, Isaac Litter, peddler, drove
up to his house and entered the
yard. AS he opened the gate, the
three savage dogs sprang upon him
and threw him to the ground. There
was no one at home but Mrs. Rife,
and she was afraid to go to his aid.
The dogs dragged the peddler out
into the road and down the road for
a quarter of mile, where they left
him unconscious. Mrs. Rife ran to
the nearest neighbors, two miles
distant. When she returned with
help, LITTER had recovered con-
seriousness and had dragged himself
to his wagon. His eyes were torn
from their sockets. The flesh was
entirely stripped from the face, his
throat was torn so that his windpipe
and all the tendons and arteries
were exposed, and the flesh on his
legs and body was gashed to the
bone in twenty-eight places. Both
hands were torn off. He was car
ried to the farm house of Daniel
Lyons, where he died. He vas

Indeed, after the practical sight
witnessed of the great richness of
the marble quarries as now worked
in Georgia, it is hard to doubt any
statements made by reliableanen
who are interested in investigating
the subject. Georgia marble will
very soon find its way into every
State of the Union. Tests made by
the diamond core-borer, for hun
dreds of feet and for miles in extent
show that the marble beds OF Geor-
gla are practically inexhaustible
and considering the short time since
the mines have been opened, and
the paying results achieved so far,
and when it is further remembered
that the interest is only in its infan-
cy, who can tell what immense for
tunes there are in store for those
who thread the marble halls to be
found at the feet of Georgia's noun
tains?
