James Mckinney, colored, a
very prominent "coon" on the
streets of Savannah, went to Sci.
mer Tuesday, accompanied by
Deputy United States Marshall
John Counoe, TO be interviewed BY
Commissioner John w. Stumph
for selling wildcat whisky. Jim
will be met with u strong array OF
testimony as to his guilt, and if
the proof be strong enough to con.
vict him, he will be assessed the
strong penalty of the law,
These violations of our laws,
right under the noses of law-abid-
ing people, should be put a stop
to, and the guilty "tipplers" OF
whisky, or anything else that III
toxicates and makes n man drunk,
should be made to answer for the
part they play in the demoralizing
scenes Witnessed upon Our streets
nearly every day in the week.
James Mckinney, if guilty, as
charged, is not alone in this Zip
plingn business; there are others,
and a severe application Of the
law to them is all that's necessary
to establish their guilt. Let our
courts enforce the law to The let.

Gen.DOn Carlos Buell. Dead

The newa Of the death of this
distinguished survivor of the late
civil war, at his home in Kentucky
last Saturday evening, was re.
ceived with much sadness by
many of his comrades here, where
he was a conspicuous figure in the
battle of Shiloh.
The most notable performance
in his career was his famous race
with Bragg for Louisville, when
the Oonfederates decided TO in.
wade and hold Kentucky, if pos.
sible, followed by the battle Of
PerryvilIe, after which Gen. Bragg
retired TO Tennessee.
Then followed the trial of Gen.
Buell. and his resignation from the
army. Though he was successful
in his contest with Bragg, and
though his arrival at Pittsburg
Landing saved Gen. Grant at
Shiloh, it was long before his mil
itary genius obtained recognition
in the north, though In the south
it was otherwise.

Fruit Culture.

From the number Of fruit trees
sold to farmers in Savannah from
some OF the leading nurseries IN
Virginia the past two weeks, it is
evident that this Important indus
try on the farm is not being neg
lected. Hardin county is well
adapted to fruit raising, aud there
is no reason why our home and
market demands, al all times of
the year, cannot be supplied from
home orchards, instead OF from
abroad. A good orchard adds
mu3h to the value Of any farm,
and a farm is not complete without
one.

Last Friday night j. M. Koonce,
of near town, had the misfortune
to loose u fine, blooded jack. The
animal got his head fastened be-
tween the wall of his stable and
the trough, at the end of which
protruded a sharp.edged rock. In
trying to extricate himself, the
back part of the animals head
came in contact with the rock, al
most splitting the head open.
When Mr.. Koonce went to his
