A C0HKK8PONDENT, describing a ball at a fa
mous watering place, says two of tho fair parti
cipants seemed like “nymphs, risen, Venus-like,
from tho sea, with ripples of pea-green silk flow
ing from the waist, flecked with lace which
seemed but foam."
Fiikkdmrn’s Candidate for the Pukhi-
dency.— A Washington paper says that the
colored employees of the Frecdmen’s Bureau
will shortly present, in a formal manner, the name
of Gen. Howard, Commissioner of the Bureau,
lor the Presidency in 1808.

Curb for Hydrophobia.—As the dog days
have come, we provide our readers with the fol
lowing antidote for hydrophobia: Eat green
shoots ot asparagus, raw; sleep and perspira
tion will be induced, and the discaso can he
cured in any state of canine madness. A man in
Athens, Greece, was cured by this remedy after
the paroxysms had commenced.
As showing what a prodigious corn crop will
he raised this year in Texas, the Tyler Reporter
says:
Two weeks ago corn could not he bought in
this market lor less than $2 25 per bushel. Last
Monday, one hundred bushels, choice, was sold
oil our public square for seventy-five cents per
bushel. We are informed that new corn cun be
engaged at 25 cents per bushel.
The Mosquito Territory.—Martinez, ex-
Piesident of Nicaragua, who recenlly leit lor
England, to represent liis country at the Court
of St. James, is especially charged with the de
livery of Ihe Mosquito Territory to Nicaragua.
The Nicaraguan papers seem to ltavo no doubt
that the mAlter will be adjusted amicably, and
claim that the United States will demand tho re
storation ol tho territory if Martinez fails to ob
tain it.
Matrimonial Question.—A young man
asked an old gentleman for his daughter in mar
riage. The answer was go into the orchard and
bring a parcel of apples. Give me one-half the
whole number, and to the mother one-half the
balance and half an apple over, and to the
daughter one-hall the remainder and half an
apple over, and have one left lor yotjrself with
out cutting an apple, then if she is willing you
-can have her. He Bolved the question, and ltow
many did he bring ?
The Western CHors.—Advices from the
West say that west of the lakes there has been
no rain to injure the crops. The wheat harvest,
both Spring and Winter, is secured in Iowa, Il
linois, and in about one-half of Wisconsin. In tile
last mentioned State and in Minnesota the crops
aro being gathered, the yield being reported to
he unusually large, reaching from 27 to 35 bush
els to the acre, and weighing, in some cases, 01
pounds to the bushel. On tho Michigan South
ern and Illinois Central Railroads the crops aro
already moving.

Formerly, when negroes voted in New Jer

An English lady at the Court of Vienna, with
whom an " Imperial Highness" danced three
limes on the same evening, flattered by his at
tention, frankly expressed her gratification at
the compliment. " I did not intend it as a com
pliment, was the answer, " Then,” said the
lady, “ your Highness must be tond of dancing.”
“ I detest dancing," was the unsatisfactory re
sponse. “ What, then, may I ask, can be your
Imperial Highness’ motive for dancing

The past year has been one of iiuusuul prosperity,
there having been in ateudance two hundred and thirty-
re yonug ladles, gathered from all parts of the United

curred.
Ita healthful location and its country position, while
yet so near the city, gives It advantages over either city

Its character as a first rate Seminary of learning is too
well known to need farther comments.

HAS PROVEN A DECIDED SUCCESS!
WHY?
JJECAUSK he has kept the LARGEST STOCK of
GOODS in his Hue in the State of Georgia, the Goods
fully adapted to tlio wants ot tlio community, either at
WHOLESALE OR RETAIL,
All of which have been made to bis own order, or bought
by himself iu i>ersou since the decline in prices, and for
cash ; coLsequently, he can and will sell them for less
than the same goods can be bought eiewbere.
Being alive to the wants of Ids customers, and know
ing the advantage that ready money lias over time in buy
ing, he lias made all Ids purchases exclusively for cash;
and being determined to sell for CASH ON DELIVERY
OF GOODS only, he can afford to take HALF THE PRO
FITS OF OTHERS who keep books and sell on time
(even for ouly thirty days.) lie Ims determined to make
THE JOBBING TRADE A SPECIALITY,
And Wholesale Buyers will find it much to their advan
tage to give him a call. He will duplicate any bill of
goods iu bis line bought of jobbing houses iu New York
or Boston, afldlug only freight, Ac., to this point,
far All goods warranted as represented.

Don’t Wash Another Week Without Buying
—TUB—
GREATE8T WONDER OF THE AGE!
HAIU.’H UNlVJillHAL,
WASHING MACHINE I!
SPECIAL NOTICE TO THE LADIES.
I T has long been felt and acknowledged that a Washing
Machine would yet bo Invented that would be elm-
pie, cheap, and more effective than auy of the Machines
heretofore offered to tho public. Such a Machine Is now
offered without fear of competition.
1st. Ono woman will do more with a Machine ttiau
six can do without it. It will wash five dirty skirts
(including wristbands and collars) perfectly clean In from
four to eight minutes—this we guarantee, or no sale.
2d. It requires no skill to operate it, as a girl 13 years
old has washed (lu Atlanta) FOUR DOZEN PIECES IN
ONE HOUR I
3d. It takes at leAst one third less soap, and will pay
for Itself every year In the saving of clothing, as it acts
so delicately on the fabrics that bank bills can be washed
w ithout breaking—something uo other machine can do.
We manufacture these Mac-nines in this place, and shall
sell them at
TEN DOLLAliS,
the same price they are sold for In New York. There is
uo Washing Machine on the market that cau bo bought
for even twice the money, and no Machine that will com
pete with it in the performance of its wor .
These Machines are on exhibition in tills city, at the
store of JOHNSON & ECHOLS, Whitehall street.
Mr. BKNTLY owns the Patent Right for this remarkable
Machine in all the Southern States. Liberal inducements
will be offered to gentlemen desiring the exclnslve righ *
to Hell these Muchiuca In counties and districts, or State.
Cull on, or address, D. S. BKNTLY & CO.,
Rome, Ga.
Iy Any one infringing upon this Patent Right will bt
prosecuted according to law, and any oue giving luformu-
tion of the same, will be liberally rewarded.
A Great Labor-Saving Machine.
We, the undersigned citizens of Rome, would say, iu
behalf of "Hall’s Universal Washing Machine,” after full
trial and use, that, in consideration of its cheapness, Ihe
durability of the Machine, the ease aud quickness of mo
tion, the small amount or soap required, und the protec
tion of the clothes, would recommend It .to a gcneroui
public.
