While V. b. Martin was saving a
poplar log at his mill in the North
part of the county one day last week
he found six minny balls embedded
in the heart of the tree, all very close
together. The tree was about three
feet thick and by a count of the rings
in the tree it was found that they
must have been shot in the tree TWEEN
ty-fve wears ago, aud are evidently
peaceful relics of the late war. 1t is
nothing uncommon in saving mp
trees grown in Orange and Spotsyl.
vania counties, Virginia, to find balls
imbedded in them near the heart,
and large plugs Of bomb-shell are
frequently taken out, but rarely ever
kept as "relics" as the people in those
counties have other relics which re-
mind them more wildly of the war
than'a mere ball or piece of shell.

The malicious practice of shooting
of pistols after night in the parts OF

to the affair can be seen. reported
and prosecuted to the fullest extent

clause. The citizens are much
wrought up over the matter and in
tend to have the nefarious practice
of these midnight marauders
stopped by gentle hint or If that
can't be taken readily, by immediate
action in the matter. Some of the
parties are already known to the au-
thorities and their conduct will be in
vestigated when the Grand Jury
meets in next month.

A Troublesome Likeness.
From the London STANDARD. q

It is said that no two bIedes Of grass
resemble each other, but occasionally two
people are to be found so extremely alike
that very regretable mistakes ensue A
case in point is that of young Frenchnan
named Tiquet, who was sentenced at a Paris
police court to one months imprisonment
for defrauding several persons. He earnestly
protested that he was innocent, and that he
was the victim of some mistake; but his
accusers positively swore to his identity
and he was condemned. 1t CHANGED, how
ever, fortunately for him, that on the
following day another young man, named
Fillateau, was brought up on a similar
charge, and at once ADMITTED his guilt
This delinquent presented 80 wonderful a
RESEMBLANCE to Tiquet that the magistrate,
perplexed. remanded the case for a week,
and sent for the imprisoned man to con-
front him with his second self and with his
accusers. The latter in the presence of the
two young men were entirely taken aback,
one OF them, however, frankly admitting
his mistake, and stating that it was Fillat-
eau. not Tiquet, who had robbed him-au
assertion which the former confirmed. The
upshot is that Fillateau has been sent to
prison for six months, and an appeal has
been lodged with the court that condemned
Tiquet to get him out Of Jail.

They Hold Our Hearts.
augusta (Ga) Chronicle Editorial.


The citizen soldiery of Savannah returned
to their homes with the admiration and
allegiance of Augusta and the exposition.
The manner in which they responded to
our invitation was enough to win them our
lasting loyalty.
They have given the great enterprise a
send-off such as cannot be impeded by I'M
toward circumstance hereafter. They have
undone at one stroke all the evil effects of
fever, freshet and adverse political elections
They furnished moving column of
strength which carried through military
day as upon the prestige Of an army with
banners. In short, Savannah has given us
q bulwark Of bayonets and brave hearts,
and has opened the exposition with eclat
The example of such delegation will be
felt in the revival of our military spirit
with its grace, precision and comradeship.
1t is inspiring TO watch the Savannah COM
panies in parade; to note how generous in
their greetings to each other; how jealous
in advancing the impression of their own
home guards. When men like Mercer, Gar
rard, Falligant, Wheaton, Branch, Gordon
and Meldrim cling to their companies, drill
with them and travel with them, it is no
wonder that the boys are SO proficient and
devoted.
Here's health and many more victories to
the volunteers of Savannah.
