Look at This! Broke out of the subscriber's
enclosure on the 9th inst. a pair of large bay horses, with some white
in their foreheads, one of which is a remarkable fine riding horse, racks
well; the other moves rather sluggish, with one eye a little defected;
also a grey mare, rather inclined to be white. The above horses were in
good order when they left the subscriber's plantation. It is probable they
will make for augusta; but I fear some villain has made a prize of them
as quick as possible. A reasonable award will be given for either, or the
whole of them, and all expenses paid. Any information will be thankfully
received, by a line directed to the subscriber at Marion, Twiggs county,
Georgia, or to Mr. A. R. Ralston in Augusta.

ambition for war was his theme, when in his senses. He died in a state
of delirium, abusing the enemy. He was brought to his end by a fall from
a horse, and survived it but from Friday evening until the following Wednesday.

of cavalry of Twiggs County, who were ordered to the Indian frontier in
Dooly and Early Counties, says the Macon Messenger, returned a few
days since. Some disturbances, adds the same paper, had taken place in
that quarter, but nothing of sufficient moment to make a military interference
necessary. It is believed that misrepresentations were made to the Executive
by those whose imaginations conjured up Indian wars from trivial circumstances,
or no troops would have been ordered out.
