When the courting nt midnight is ended,
Anti he stands with his hat in his fist.
While she lovingly lingers beside him
To bid him “Ta-ta” and be kissed.
How busy the thoughts of the future —

He is wondering how they can manage
To live on six dollars a week.

Rome is all astir this week over the

This week will be worth thousands of

The Abbeville Hifles.
This staunch and gentlemanly South
Carolina military organization which
has honored Rome with its presence
for several days past, we regret to
state, were compelled to return home
yesterday morning. Our boys broach
ed a keg of foaming lager in their
honor, and sent them on their way
with three cheers and a resounding
volley from their rifles. We trust
their stay among us was a pleasant
one, and wish them an agreeable
journey and a safe return to the old
“Palmetto State.”
R. J. West & Co., have in stock the
finest assortment of Ladies', Misses
and Children's Slippers ever brought

The Miller Rifles.
A movement is on foot to re-organ
ize the old Miller Rifles that gained so
much notoriety in the late civil war,
by their bravery. Some of Rome’s
best young men have signified their
intention of becoming members, and
we have no doubt but what the com
pany will be re-organized at an early
day. The boys have determined to
make Col. John R. Towers Captain,
and with such a man at the head, suc
cess will be inevitable. Let all who
wish to become members consult at
once with Col. Towers. We hope soon
to see them parading the streets of
Rome.

Cheap Cash Store,
The only strictly Cash store in the
city.
Keep fresh and pure goods,
Sell fast at small profits,
And for less money than any other
house.
We mean what we say.
How can we do it?
By buying for cash
lii the best markets in the U. S.
Regardless of every consideration
except quality and price;
By having no expense of books;
By having no expense of bookkeep
er,
Nor of Fire-proof safe,
Nor of Irsurance.
We loose no accounts and therefore
don’t have to add a per ceiit to cover
such losses;
By being satisfied with very small
profits,
We arc determined to turn our
stock over fast and will be glad if our
friends will give us a trial. We mean
business.
The New Baptist Church.
A called meeting of the conference
was held by the congregation of the
Baptist Church Sunday morning last,
and decided on definite plans as re
gards building the new church. Ten
thousand dollars have been subscribed
and the committee have began to
make collections. The plan has
been drawn by an architect from Bos
ton, and the contract for building vir
tually let to him. The building will
cost
FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS,
for which he ig to take the material in
the old building at $3,000 leav
ing a balance of twelve thousand to
be paid on completion of the new
church. The committee on collections
lias set vigorously to work, and as
soon as half the amount subscribed
has been collected, the work will be
gin. The basement of the new church
will bo completed first, and the main
audience room not until next spring.
It will then be plastered, frescoed and
furnished in the most approved style.
The contract for such a church as the
phtir portrays, is very low at $15,000.
The committee has been correspond
ing with several contractors in the
State, and one who has done consider
able building in Romo, says he cannot
touch it for less than
TWE N T V -FIV E THOUSAND.
The new church which the Baptists
have so long felt the need, is now on a
successful fooling and will certainly,
be built at an early day. When the
committee started their collections the ■
work begun, and it will now reflect
discredit on the whole congregation if
the building is not soon commenced.
The Baptist congregation is one of the
largest, and probably the richest in the
city, and if the church is not built
every one knows where the fault will
be.

A Supposed Miracle.
A colored woman, Lou Gammon by
name, who lives ona and a half miles
from the city, caught the diptheria
about a year ago, which turned into
an attack of paralysis before she re
covered ; she thereby losing the use
of her limbs, and has been unable to
walk since then. Some few nights
ago, says our informant, she had a.
dream, in wlwch she thought a man
came and advised her to go to a cer
tain spring in the woods near her
home, and bathe in the waters, and
she would recover the use of her
limbs. This Mreain ap[>earcd to her
on three succCTsive nights, and with a
full faith in the advice, she visited the
spring, and now, as our informant
solemnly avers, is able to walk as well
as she ever could. We cannot vouch
for the facts, but simply give them
as they were given to us.
Shorter Cigars.
The “Alfred Shorter Cigar” is a new
and excellent brand just introduced in
the market by the manufacturers,
Messrs. Laramorc & Co. It is one of
the finest cigars manufactured. The

cover is ornamented by a picture of
Shorter College, and the end with an
excellent portrait of Col. Shorter. An
elegant and costly diamond pin, or
ring, which is on exhibition, will be
given as a prize to the buyer of the
box containing the lucky number,
which has been placed in bank with
only one person who knows the num
ber. This new brand of cigars can be
purchased at either wholesale or re
tail of Messrs. Laramorc & Co., on
Broad street.
