People Who Talk Too Much.

In the Supreme Court of Georgia at
Atlanta Monday last Judge Bleckley,
who has considerable reputation as a
humorist, had something to say about
people WHO talk too much. The case un-
der consideration was one of Fox against
Henderson, which came up from Savan-
nah. The charge was SANDER. Upon
the first trial of the case Fox got a YER
dict for 81 800. Henderson, it seems,
had used some rather strong expressions
about Fox. saying, among other things,
that Fox was "a thief, and ought to be
in the pcnitentiary." Fox took excep-
ton to this, and the court gave him
81 5nG worth. -Ttrc-casc- ranIe to the -Su-
preme Court, and Henderson got new
trial. 1t went back, was tried again,
with the same verdict and amount, and
again came to the Supreme Court. After
affirming the decision of the court below
Judge Bleckley said: The court thinks
this is harsh verdict, in view of the
palliatiHg facts set forth in the evidence,
but not an illegal one. 1t teaches most
energetic lesson in favor of holding ones
tongue, and it is we'll for that lesson to
be learned sooner or later by us all. !"

White Caps in Marion.

On last Wednesday night the White
Caps in the Mullins neighborhood paid
a visit to Laura Surles, disreputablc
woman, who had been creating dis
turbancc there for some time. AS the
White Caps approached the house IN
which she was staying they saw a man
come out Of the door and make for the
woods, but not before he was recognized
by the White Caps. Entering the house,
they took Laura out, and, putting bag
over her head, proceeded to lay the
whip on her, when the man who had left
the house, and who turned out to be }.
W. Lewis, came up and demanded what
they were doing. He had no sooner
spoken than bag was thrown over his
head and he was given q sound thrash
ing, and a rope was put around his neck
and slung over limb, but they did not
hang him. After shooting a hole or two
in his hat he was turned loose, and left
the White Caps in such manner as to
lead one to believe nest of hornets was
behind him. He did not stop to make
any further inquiries about Laura, who
had also been given a severe whipping
and turned loose. On Thursday Laura
was seen vending her way to North
Carolina with small bag containing
her earthly belongs on her back, proba-
bly, having reached the conclusion that
the ncighborhood was too hot for her.
1t is also said that Lewis, who is Il mar
ried man, is preparing TO vamooSc. y
riddance of such characters is blessing
to any community. .-Marion~stt'7-:-
