north-one from Massachusetts and the
other from New York This is the second
horsewhipping that has occurred here, and
in both instances the participants were
from the states above named.
The funny part Of the foregoing cpl
sode is that the man who inflicted thu casti-
cation with the horsewhip Immediately
thereafter went to the magistrate and told
him what he had done, and asked that he
be as lenient as possible. TIE magistrate
assessed q fine of 81 and costs. and the Of

AMERICUs, GA. Feb. 1.-THE fire alarm
was sounded at IL o'clock last night, and
proved to be in the store of Brown &
French, on Cotton avenue. The Wide
Awakes were the first company to get
stream on the fire, and soon had it under
control. The loss is about $4,000, and is
fully covered by insurance. The fire was
undoubtedly the work of an incendiary.
as bolts of goods were found saturated with
kerosene oil, unrolled and stretched from
the cellar to the upper floor Three negroes
have been arrested, and Monroe Adams is
charged with the burning. He is the
same negro who a few weeks ago
attempted to kill his mother with a shot
gun. The evidence against him is very
strong. If guilty, it is case of arson for
revenge, as the owner Of the building set on
fire last Saturday turned Adams out of the
quarters he was occupying as a restaurant
for failure to pay rent. The other two ne
groes are held as accomplices. The evidence
against them has not been given to the
public by the police.

The Caldwell Tribune, in speaking
Of projected improvements in size
and appearance says
"When the Tribune made the last
change, it thought it had reached ell
that Yves demanded Of paper in q
town the size OF Caldwell, and intend
ed to rest contented for time. But
Caldwell has an appreciative and en-
terprise-loving people, and so well
did they show their appreciation OF
the Tribune's enterprise by advertis-
ing and subscription, that we feel en-
couraged to take another step for
ward. The Tribune Publishers can
publish splendid paper, and they
will if their support will let them.
From present indications the support
is not only willing, but demands it.
Consequently we have ordered new
material, and in the course of few
months the paper will be enlarged
and improved. The Tribune is a
credit to Caldwell. No business man
is ashamed to send sample of his
home paper away. When away from
home and confronted with q copy OF
the Tribune, he does not have to
: blush and apologize, as too many
; enthusiastic citizens OF small towns
do. You can send the Tribune to
any stranger, without comment OF
, your own, and he will size Caldwell
up rs having from j, 100 to 5000 in
habitants One good paper, printed
in neat business manner, is wortl
i ten half-staryed looking sheets. Th,
? Tribune suggests prosperity to th
stranger, and sentence in such
paper has weight with men lookin
for investment.
The sentiments expressed abov
=. apply TO other places and papers a
!, we'll, and in the case of Weiser it
+ An exact fit. II the people of thi
i county show by their support tbs
they appreciate our efforts, we assui
them that hey shall have Il pap'
worthy of place in the front rank

ie prove the SIGNAL as fast as OF
es patronage will warrant, and hoI
