The Swainsboro Herald puts it “Ep
so?/i salts” Will he tell us how,
many u salts” Mr. Epsom had ?
The Tri-Weekly Sumter Republi
can entered its eigteenth year on the
22d inst. The weekly Republican is
in its thirtieth year, and is a sound old
muldoon.
What has become of the Savannah
Times? We have missed its pleasing
physiognomy for more than a week, and
we don’t like it. You must do better
than this, Mr. Times.
The Atlanta Constitution compliments
a political speech made in that city by
Mr. John M Graham, official reporter
of this judicial circuit, last Wednesday,
very highly. We congratulate Mr. G.
upon his laurels.
Savannah Recorder : A respectable
looking young white man was sent to
the penitentiary for four ye rs, last
week, for stealing four cans of con
densed milk, while acting as a common
carrier between Thunderbolt and War
saw island.
The Swainsboro Herald says that
1 bat tow-. is the best cotton market in
the State, because its cotton buyers
pay one cent per pound more than thoy
receive for it in Savannah. This makes
it a good market for the seller, but it
puts lie heer on the buyers for being the
greenest si t of traders in the United
Mates.
We take pleasure ; n copying the fol
lowing well deserved compliment to
Col. M. P. Ca-roll from the Madison
Madisonian, and give it our hearty en.
dorse men t: “Col. M. P. Carroll, of
Augusta, is in altendance on our Supe
rior ( ourt. By his urbanity of manner
and gen ; nl social character, he has made
a. fine impression on our people. He is
a prominent aspirant for the judge
ship of the Autrusta Circuit, and we
hope will be elected. In him the Cir
cuit would have an able, impartial and
popular judge, and the bench a brilliant
ornament,”
We are decidedly of the opinion that
credit tc^, newspaper for articles cop
ied from it is as justly due as any
othef transaction of honor. We are al
ways scrupu’ously careful to do so.—
tuxes. Of course, that would he impos
sible to do unless there was a total
change in the Bchool system. This
change we propose to urgo upon
the Legis'ature when it assem
bles. There was no great enthusiasm
among the audience, because peihaps
everybody had already made up their
minds how they would vote. Taken
altogether, it was a good speech.
