Scott, Millcdgeville, Ga. Points of Interest in Savannah. Since Congress street has been paved with asphalt it has become a splendid drive. In fact, the best in the city, .... for its center is not cut by ear tracks, and is graced on both si,l ‘‘ s with v(;r v imposing buildings. Rrob- . ably among the most conspicuous is Me88r8 . 1i(IV( , n & Latnnore’s extensive Hardware, House Furnishing and Stove stores, Congress street. Being the direct way to and from the hotels, railroads and steamship lines, it is hardly possible that strangers will miss the opportunity of hav- a at one of the largest and most completely arranged establishments of the kind in the South. EASY TERMS ON ENGINES. The Ames Engine is one of the best en¬ gines sold. And the beauty of it is they are so cheap. Don’t pay two prices for an en¬ gine or gin, but write to Mr. O. M. Stone, Augusta, Ga., and get his prices and easy terms. it CONSUMING IRON. The largest Foundry and Machine Shop in Augusta ami one of the largest in the South, is that of Messrs. Geo. It. Lombard A Co. Hundreds of tons of iron and steel are sent out from this immense shop fashioned by an army of skilled workmen into fine machinery. A personal business acquaint- a nee with this house enables us to cheerfullv commend it to all who need any kind of cliinery. Their large and increasing busi¬ ness speaks volumes for them. They are perfectly reliable. u an immense stock. Messrs. A. J. Miller A Co., of Savannah, carry an immense stock of Furniture and Carpets. Our editor lias seen it and knows whereof he speaks. An inspection of their stock will convince the people that they do a heavy business. You will find out more about it if you look tip their advertisement, and more still if vou examine their stock of goods. They sell cheap; of course they Nothing except a laughing baby adds more to home comfort than good Furniture, and the place to buy is at A. J. Miller A Co., Sa¬ vannah, Ga. it GRAND MID-SUMMER PIANOS AND ORGAN SALE. Ludden A Bates’ Southern Music House, of Savannah, Ga., make an offer which all who want Pianos and Organs will do well to take advantage of.

Par- ties can thus buy now at spot cash rates , and pay when Cotton is sold. See their new advertisement in this issue and write them about it. it THE EDITOR’S ( IIAII!. Our editor sits on a revolving spring-back chair, writes on a walnut desk, and throws rejected articles into a large waste basket. “Well, what of (hat?” you ask. Simply this: The chair, desk and waste-basket were purchased of Messrs. Mc-Gillis A Rustin, of Savannah. Not satisfied with this, our edi¬ tor was so extravagant as to buy a very- large nice rocking-chair for his wife. Where did he buy it? At McGillis A Kostin's. Just as soon as be gets a few more subscri¬ bers he expects to buy chairs enough for his five children to sit on, and then that will he a happy family. If Mess. McGillis A Rustin could please everybody as well as they have our editor, this would be a delighted coun¬ try. And they’ll do it if you buy your Fur¬ niture from them. This enterprising firm lias pushed its trade in all directions, adver¬ tised liberally, sold cheap, treated all fairly and is to-day one of the best-known and most popular houses in Savannah.

Evans, of Screven county, is now with the above house, and will be pleased to see bis friends. They sell at wholesale and retail, and give perfect satisfaction. Be sure you find them. It BUY THE RIGHT MEDICINE. The day of teas, decoction, infusions and such slops has passed and is being replaced by fluid extracts. The latest United States Dispensatory says in this connection: “Both decoctions and infusions have now become almost obsolete, and deservedly so.” In view of the above advanced idea and stubborn facts we beg to call attention to tiie Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium Compound which lias gained such a noto¬ riety. and is undoubtedly the The Gk latent Blood Purijstkk of the age. Has cured more rheumatism, Scrofula, Old Sores, Skin Diseases, Blood Taints, etc., in the last six months, than all the other Blood remedies on the market. It is no humbug, no secret, hut a preparation composed of the fluid extracts of Prickly Ash, Poke Root, Queen’s Delight and Sar¬ saparilla, with the lorbde of Potassium add¬ ed. Physicians endorse il as a splendid combination. It is a powerful tonic and builds up the system rapidly. If you are weak and feeble try a bottle. Take P. P. P. and gain flesh and strength rapidly. It is the best remedy for malarial poisons, and will cure chills in every instance. As a tonic and regulator for females who are in a low state of health it has no equal. Try one bottle and be convinced. II ROLLING ON. On a recent visit to Augusta, Ga., our So- licitor entered the immense establishment of Mess. Goodyear A Co., dealers in Bug¬ gies, Carriages, Wagons, and all kinds of Leather goods, and solicited an advertise¬ ment for the Reporter. The very clever proprietor, Mr, Goodyear, did not say “7 can't.'" and "Hard limes'." Not a bit of it. He promptly ordered us to put in eight squares as a starter. This made the said Solicitor feel like lie was in the presence of a wide-awake business man that knew the value of printer’s ink. Tliisold and reliable house carries a heavy stock of Hardware all the time, and does a large wholesale and retail trade. Their Factory is right in Au¬ gusta, and this gives them the advantage over competition from abroad. Don’t rend to the North or West for a buggy, carriage or wagon when you can get as good or bet¬ ter near home for less money. Their very handsome advertisement in this paper speaks for itself. Call on them or write to them. It EDWARD LOVELL A SONS, 155 Broughton Street, Savannah,Georgia. uardw are, tin" are, iron and steel. a heels, A.rrls, linns, Hubs and Spokes. ItPENllNEMl PS.
