We have been assured of the confidence
and approbation of our patrons, and of
the existence of a prevailing desire in
the community that it may have
prosperous future. We will not cease
from our efforts to make it a permanent
seminary worthy of the very highest
position among the bast schools of the
country. The vitality and efficiency
of its organization will be preserved—
its teachers will be well qualified, ear
nest and faithful; its government, will
he parental and decided, and every
reasonable effort will be put forth to
make it meet the demands of the com
munity. It must have time to grow
up to the fullness of excellence and
prosperity. No better instruction is
given anywhere, North or South, than
has been and will he given to its classes,
yet its annually increased facilities, and
enlarged associations, and its improved
method of illustration to be developed
in the progress ef education, will make
it more and more attractive as an edu
cational home.
It needs to be fostered—to have the
hearty co-operation of our citizens. If
they will regard it as their school, in
volving largely the interests of their
families, of the city and of the country,
its success and usefulness will he as
sured.
In former years, when our people
were in a better condition to educate
their children, good schools could pros
per, either with or without any consid
erable local patronage. It is not so now,
except in towns in which schools and
colleges constitute the chief element of
prosperity, and the inhabitants of
which, for this reason, reach out an ac
tive, wakeful and practical influence to
invite and attract the patronage of dis
tant families. Towns sustained chiefly
by commerce or trade, seldom become
educational centres, and seminaries of
learning established in them, must de
pend largely for support and prosperity
on a liberal and well sustained local
patronage.
A few boarders from Georgia, and
from other States are engaged for next
session, in our college, and we hope
their number will increase from year
to year, as the country improves, as
parents become more generally ac
quainted with the merits of the insti
tution, and as we are prepared to wel
come the.growing numbers to new and
well furnished rooms. Yet I am fully
persuaded that its present life and its
further growth a-s a College, necessarily
depend on a generous and reliable local
patronage.
I therefore most respectfully and ear
nestly solicit your efficient co-operation.
The next session will commence on
the first Monday of September.

In Memoriam—Sarah E. Berryhill.
Died at the residence of her husband,
K. W. Berryhill, on the 24th of May,
1S73, Airs. Sarah E. Berryhill, eldest
daughter nf Edward and Nancy Sharpe.
Though horn in Abbeville, S. C., she
had resided in Georgia since i«ag. as
a member of the Fellowship Baptist
church, she had ever exhibited a piety
unobtrusive, yet sincere and devoted.
In all her painful sickness, and during
her dying hours, she manifested per
fect submission to God’s will, and un
faltering trust in her Redeemer. Death
brought a happy release from sufferings
for which there was no earthly cure.
May her bereaved husband be led to
the Savior she loved, and her infant son
be so guided as to meet his mother in
Heaven. A Friend.
The St. Louis Globe affirms that Gen
ual Grant has denied having any wish
for a third term. “But,” it adds, “ the
Grant-phobists won’t he deprived of
their hobby in this way. They’ll not
take 1 no’ for an answer. Will he, will
he, they will run him for a third term.”
Perhaps a liberal reward will be paid
for autlienic information that General
Grant has positively declined a third
term.

Nice Barbecue. — About one hun
dred ladies and gentlemen of Rome
fully enjoyed the barbecue gotten up
by C. C. Smith, the popular conductor
of the Rome Railroad, at Dyke’s Creek
on yesterday. The “Brunswick stew,”
made under the supervision of Captain
May, was perfectly delicious; the shoat,
kid and lamb, were all splendidly bar
becued; the bread was j No. 1; and in
fact everything would tickle the palate
of the most fastidious epicure. All
wlio participated had a good time, and
would like to try it again.
The Rainbow Festival.
The firemen’s festival last Thursday
night at the Rainbow Hall was a per
fect success in every respect. Over
8200 were realized for the benefit of the
company—while the enjoyment of the
evening was well worth the money.
Great credit is due our patriotic ladies
for their services, and for the graceful
manner of presiding over and conduct
ing the entertainment. To Mrs. D. S.
Printup, Mrs. Yeal, Mrs. \V. T. Mapp,
Mrs. D. J. Powers, and Mrs. Bowen,
especially are the thanks of the guests,
as well as the company, due for their
kindly exertions.
A Huge Fair at Engines.
The Pittsburgh Iron World gives the
following notice of a pair of monster
engines being built in that city:
The most powerful pair of engines
in the world are in progress of con
struction in this city. Reducing the
capacity of some of the largest pump
ing engines to a uniform lift of one
foot high in 24 hours, It is found that
the one at the Lehigh zinc mines will
lift 3,456,000 gallons;'the pair at the
Chicago water works 4,500,000,000 gal
lons; the pair at Harlem, HoISnd,
1,000,000,000 gallons. The new Pitts
burgh engines will, Itis presumed, lift
14,240,000,000 gallons,
The pair will weigh”1500 tons and
cost $420,650. The following dimen

PauidlngConnty Correspondence. .:
To tbeXditor of the Courier. ' vewnfif
interval, I again venture to send you
some account of ,our section of country.
As tiie agricultural interest is largely
in the ascendant over all others, T will
confine myself principally to the. pros
pects of the growing crop and the farm
ing interest. - -r:rj
Until within a few days past we were
suffering for rain, but that; is now
changed, and we have been blessed with
heavy showers in a goodly portion of
&e county, and the labors dfi&eihwfe
bandmaa now promise to repay him
for his arduous toiL The oat crop has
been remarkably good in this epunty.
As regards our agricultural sfeuistica,
as pur Receiver has just completed his
digest, I will give you some of the
items: -
Acres in corn — 14,116’
Acres in cotton —.10,022
Acrediifoatiu- 3,736
Acres in 'wheat— 1 — < 4;401
Acres in orchards ----- -——- lj03S
Number of dogs — 1,456
Number of sheeps —: 3,847,
Number of hogs —8-,779
Number of horses and'mules — 1;475
Number of cattle 5,853
This account is slightly increased by
the amount from the account given in
by the freedmen, which, however, is
but small. There are in the county
1143 polls, and only some 90 of them
belong to the sable sons of Ham, or
about 13 white to 1 black poll; so that
this is to all intents and purposes a
white man’s county. There axe re
turned 2076 white children between
the ages of 6 and 18. Merchandise is
only represented by $16,571; and such
is the prevalence of small country stores
there is only one militia district in the
county that is not represented in this
respect.
1 do not know that an account of
value of land, stock, etc., returned would
he of much interest. I will only-say
that the return this year, exceeds that
of 1872 some $150,000. Cotton crops,
where they have had good work, look
well. The com crop suffered some from
the drought, but it also is looking well
where it has been properly cultivated.
If my random letters are acceptable,
you will continue to hear from me oc
casionally. H.

The Favorite Home Remedy.
The Pain-Killer has bean before the phblio
over thirty j cars, and probably has & wider and
better reput^tio.i than any other, proprietary
medicine of the present day. At this period
thero are but few unacquainted with tho mcritr of
the Pain-Killer; but, while some extol it as a
Unimenty they kiow but little ol its power in
easing pain, when liken intomajly ; while others
use it internally . with great success, but are
equally igno^ni'ofits healing virtues when ap
plied externally. "We therefore wish to say to all
that it is.equ|dly successful, whether used inter-
rally or externally. It is sufficient evidence oi
its virtues as a standard medicine to know that
it is now used‘in all parts of the world, and that
its sale is constantly increasing. Ho curative
agent has had such a wide spread sale, or given
suofr universal satisfaction.
Davis’ Pain-Killer is a purely vegetable com
pound, prepared from the best and purest mate
rials/and With care that insures the most perfect
uniformity in the medicine; and while It is a
most effective remedy for pain,it is a perfectly
safe medicine, even in the most unskillful hands.
It is eminently a family medicine; and by
being kept ready for immediate resort, will save
many an hour of suffering, and many a dollar in
time and doctors'bills.
After over thirty years' trial, it is still receiv
ing the most unqualified testimonials to its vir
tues, from persons of the highest character and
responsibility. Eminent physicians commend
it as a most effectual preparation for the extinc
tion of pain. It is not only the best remedy
ever known for Bruises, Cuts, Bums, Ac, but for
Dysentery, or Cholera, or any sort of bowel
complaint, it is a remedy unsurpassed for effi
ciency, and rapidity of action. In tho great
dries of India, and other hot climates, it has
become tho standard medicine lor all such com-
plaints^s well as for Dyspepsiajiirer Complaints
and-all.other kindred disorders. For Coughs and
Colds, Canker, Asthma, and Rheumatic difficul
ties, it has been proved by the most abundant
and convincing testimony to be an invaluable
medicine.
We would caution the publio against all imi
tations ?f our preparation, either in name or
stjle of putting up. Jull5aaugl5
The Wear and Tear of Life.
The cares, anxieties end misfortunes of life
bave as much to do with shortening it as disease.
They axe in fact the source of many ailments and
physical disabilities. Nervous weakness, dys
pepsia, affections of the liver, disturbances of
the bowels, headache, hypochondria and mono
mania are among these distressing fruits. It is,
therefore, of great importance that persons
whose minds are oppressed with heavy business-
responsibilities, or banned by family troubles,
or excited by speculation, or perplexed by a mul
tiplicity of tta4 ® r P I ^» any way oTntyed
tho daily use of a wholesome tonic. Thousands
of persons rims circumstanced are enabled to
bear up against the difficulties in which they are
ived, and do. retain their strength, health
' mental clearness, by the regular use of
Stomach Bitters. Diseases which
a^e prone to attack the body when debilitated
and broken down by orer-mneh brain work or
exhausting physical labor, are kept at bay by
the resistant power with which this incomparable
tonic endows the nervous system and the vital
organs. At this season, when the heat is evap
orating the elements' of strength from every
pure, an invigqrant is absolutely essential to the
safety and comfort of the public, and is required
even by tho most robust if they desire to keep
their athletic capabilities in stains quo. Hence
a course of Hostetler's Bitters is particularly
useful at this period of tho year as a defence
against the invisible disease afloat in a sultry
atmosphere, ft is the most potent of all preven
tative medicines, and for all complaints which
affect the stomach, the liver and the bowels, and
interfere with the perfect digestion and assimflsr
tion of*food, itis the standard remedy.
Success is the Best Test
; Of superiority; the wonderf-1 demand for

above everything else of the kind. However
much its jealous' defamers may throw their shaft*,
truth will prevail and so will this medicine.
