He come home one night with a torn coat
which she kindly undertook to mend, but \vh u
she turned it upside down so that a letter and a
“Domestic Fashion” of anew overskirt, which
she had given him to mail to her mother some
two weeks before, tumbled out of one of the
pockets, it was so live there for the next ten
minutes that his first move in the morning was
in the direction of a wigstore, to the proprietor
of which lie bravely explained that close appli

Khedive of Egypt had done it.
The Minstrels.
The theatre going portion of Elber
ton was treated with two rich, rare and
racy exhibitions last Saturday and Mon
day evenings by Van Horn & McLean’s
minstrels. The music made by their
orchestra was first class, the farces well
gotten up, and Pritchett with the bones
and McLean with the tamborine manag
ed their corners well. Messrs, Simmons
and Van Horn are musicians of superior
talent as was exhibited both on the
streets in thoband and in the hall. The
excellent music is one of the striking
features of the concern, and these gen
tleman make a large portion of it. Mr.
Hodges is a good stage director and an
excellent minstrel. They have good
dancers, singers, gags, etc., indeed eve
rything for a first class show. Mr. Ly
on is a courteous gentleman and de
serves success. Their exhibitions are
entertaining. They go to Anderson
from hero, and we take pleasure in re
commending them to the good people
of that place. There is no humbug about
it, their exhibitions are good.

Court Saturday
Notary Public Carpenter’s Court was
in session Saturday and it is said when
this legal machine is set running it goes
with a velocity seldom seen.
The case was a suit for a possessory
warrant for one Beverly Allen against
Beverly Tate, both colored, for the re
covery of a coat worth about 30 cents.
It seems that these two Beverlys being
congenial spirits, probably from the
fact that they both bear'thesame cogno
men, swapped coats for a time, and when
Allen wanted to exchange back the
other Bev. refused to do it, ar.d hence the
suit.
’Squire Jones for plaintiff, Tlon. R,
Hester for defendant. After elaborate
arguments Beverly gained it.

Leading Business Men of Athens.
We present our readers this week an
array of advertisements from the first
business men of Athens, of whisk we be
speak an earnest perusal. They are
all houses whose integrity are well
known among oar readers throughout
this country.
First, we have Messrs. Reaves &
Nicholson, ‘successors of Center &
Reaves, who have been furnishing sup
plies to farmers and merchants for ma
ny years, and whoso rapidly increasing
trade attest the popularity of the house.
Messrs. Talmadge, Hodgson & Cos.
are doing a mammoth business in Ath
ens, and every gentleman connected
with the house is an active, earnest
worker and man of business. A trial
will attest the character of the house.
J. 11. Huggins invites a portion of the
trade of this section, and is confident of
bis ability to please all who favor him
with an examination of his goods and
prices. Ho is a pleasant gentleman,
and we guarantee a cordial welcome to
all who call on him.
Bell & Cos., hardware merchants, are
located in the business part of the city,
and are doing a large share of the busi
ness peculiar to their lino. A call will
convince you of their willingness and
ability to serve you in the most agreea
ble manner
Childs, Nickerson & Cos., the old mer
chants in hardware and agricultural im
plements, have their card in this, issue.
“Good wine needs no bush,” and this
old house needs no commendation from
us.
R. T. Brumby & Cos., druggists and
pharmacists, invite the trade of our
readers in their particular line. We are
thoroughly convinced of Dr. Brumby’s
accomplishments as ail apothecary, of
whose skill the unsolicited testimony of
the. leading physicians and people of
Athens are a flattering assurance.
W. C. Kemp, of the popular City
Mills, also presents a card to our read
ers which will readily commend itself.
If bread is the staff of life, Mr. Kemp’s
breadst-uffs will make that staff more at
tractive.
Mr. E. P. Talmadge is a thoroughly
practical watchmaker, jeweler and en
graver, and is one of the indispensable
institutions of that delightful city. A
pleasant, genial young gentleman, he
will not fail to suit you if you call on
him. He makes no charges for engrav
ing names on jewelry purchased from
him.
T. A. Burke, bookseller and agent for
the best pianos and organs, is a gen tig j
man in eve 1 y way worthy of confidence
and patronage. He will supply you
with ev< rything in isis lire at low rates,
and sells his pianos and oi'gans at man
ufacturers' prices.
J. T. Wilson & Cos , dealers in furni
ture supply every tiling in the way of their
goods as low as can be obtained in any
other Southern city.

The Jeff Davis Guards.
Mr. Editor : For about two years the
company by the above name has been or
ganized in our midst, and as yet have
never had a company drill nor a gun, and
so far as my oberservation extends is not
likely to have either soon unless renewed
energy and life takes hold of the mem
here, and renewed exertions that will
know no failure is brought into requisi
tion.
There has been some money gotten up
from various sources which with an ad
dition of as much more would be enough
to procure the guns necessary. So far
as we know the greatest part of the
money that has been raised is resting
idly in the hands of different parties who
are perfectly responsible, but who, if we
understand the suite of affairs correctly,
are paying no interest on it. Now, while
there seems to be such lethargy prevail
ing among the Guards, would it not be
advisable to get these moneys together,
put them in some business shape, and
loan the amount to some good man, at a
reasonable per cent, interest ? It strikes
me that something of this kind should
! be done, and that immediately.
Are we ever to equip the company '?
Shall the woik already done, the exer
tions already made fall to the ground ?
What say you Guards? It is with you
whether or not this will be the ease, and
for the life of me I cannot see why such
procrastination. If we cannot, succeed
in arming the military company let’s G.
vise some means to dispense of the
funds on hand in a manner that will be
agreeable and satisfactory to all concern
ed. But I for one hold that the matter
never has had a fair chance. Members
have not done their duty in trying to
raise finds, too many of the company
have relied on the exertions of oilier
members to do the work, and the result
is exactly what might have been expect
ed.
Every man of you. put your shoulder
to the wheel ancl let’s make one more
grand effort to do the work, and show
that undaunted, persevering spirit, that
will command the respect yea, even the
admiration and money of the public.
These scattering observations are
offered in the best spirit, and if the
suggestions serve to invigorate the
cause oi*^acts as an incentive to stir up
the members to a sense of duty, the
writer of this will be glad beyond de
scription. A- Guard.
Here and There.
Heavy rains last week.
The Good Templars still live.
Bird hunters on the qui vive.
Cotton coming in in large quantities.
“Oh, Sally, don't yer grieve after nre.”
The new church hasn’t been dedicated
yet.
Cardinal red is becoming more and
more popular.
We are longing to chronicle the mar
riage of somebody. Hurry up tho
cakes.
Won't the elector for the Eighth give
us a talk before November ? Seems as
if be might.
November the 7th is the day for every
patriot to wield his influence for Tilden
and reform.
Since we said that the girls trimmed
in cardinal red looked pretty, they’re all
wearing it.
Come in with your cow applications.
Haven’t procured a suitable one • yet.

“I loves chicken, I loves pie, I loves
you, does you loves I?” is the way an
Elberton boy told it to his star.
“Smile on, nor venture to unmask
man’s heart, and view the hell that’s
there.”
“I l'eel so mighty jolly when the band
begins to play,” is now the favorite air
in town.
“And now I'm left to weep and to
mourn,” is the song that Nathan Thomp
son now plaintively hums.
And the editor went to Augusta, too,
but we are glad to state that he wasn’t
robbed or didn’t get lost.
Some of the gay and festive are speak
ing of another sociable soon. We know
of no objection.
The Baptist church improvements as
yet have not been made, but will bo
soon we presume.
The centennial exhibition will close
forever on the tenth of next month. If
you expect to visit the show now is the
time.
They want anew bell for tho Metho
dist church, that will ring louder, sound
sweeter and clearer than any bell in
town.
The absent-minded Elberton mother
that scrubbed up the floor with the baby
and put the broom in the cradle is get
ting better.
The actions of some of our would be
belles are maudlin in a degree that is as
bad as a red-liot case of meningitis or
infiuendways.
A certain Elberton beauty got off a
good thing the other day about taking
an oath, but we promised not to publish
the pun.
The City Parents have nothing to do
now but to set back on their dignity,
and talk to themselves about “in us all
the honor lies.”
Tho editor-in-chief of this paper has
been on visit to Athens. The classic
atmosphere of this far-famed city seems
to have agreed with him.
Our handsome young friend, Mr. S.
Starke Brewer, has just returned from
Philadelphia, and Ire says he saw won
derful sights.
Mr C. Chedel, the beautiful brunette
Frenchman, and as clever a boy as ever
eat a cold potato, has returned from
Oglethorpe.
With a graceful courtesy we acknowl
edge obligations to Col. McAlpin Arn
old for late favors. lie keeps lots of
good goods.
We are happy to announce that as
yet tho courthouse has not fallen. How
long, on, how long Defore the repairs
will be made ?
The collectors arc the most energetic
people in our midst, and a lesson of
industry might be learned any day by
watching them close.
What’s the use of making such a
racket about the new church being ded
icated. Patience, you know, is and ad
mirable characteristic.
The busy hum of the sewing machine,
and the merry voices of the Sewing
Club ladies are still heard in the land,
as they labor for their cause. Verily, ye
shall bo rewarded.
It’s very mortifying to tell a funny
narrative and have no one to laugh at it-
So says an Elberton man who says lie
knows what he’s talking about from sad
experience.
As yet we have not heard the first
tune from the Elberton brass band.
The music last Saturday evening should
have incited the inaugurators to try it
again.
The three fires last week catno very
near being too late for last week’s issue.
’Twoukl me more convenient for us for
them to happen earlier in the week if
they occur at all.
We took tea with one of tho upper
ten last week, and have not felt so
much at home since we associated with
the dignitaries of Washington City dur
ing Congress.
Like Paul and Virginia a certain
couple in this town have been meander
ing along for years, and why they don’t
bow before Hymen is a wonder to the
gossips about here.
No portion of the country sympathiz
es more with Carolina in her struggle
for liberty and good government than
does Elbert. May she come “out of the
depths” is cur prayer. Amen.
“Oh, dammit,” said a man the other
morning as he woke up and found him
self in the “big gully,” “lemrne see where
I am. I really believe I’m in the bot
tomless pit.” He was drunk when he
fell in.
We don't desire to spill any man's
blood, and therefore give warning that
every night we watch our wood-pile
armed with a double-barreled shot-gun,
a pepper-box pistol, and an army sword,
and the first man we catch hanging
around that wood, would do well to have
is obituary fixed up before he tries to
hook any.
Titters —that's what we have been trv
! ing to think of. You can’t make 'em
out of paper, so now, old man, you can
come up und subscribe for The Gazette
with the sweet consciousness that tilters
are the go now, and your daughter
won’t make a bustle of your paper any
more before you get a chance to read it.

! moved.
The Hew Church.
The work of the carpenter on the new
Methodist house of worship under the
auspices of tho Laidcs’ Sewing Society,
has been completed now for two or three
weeks, and with doors locked every day
; and Sunday too, the edifice stands of no
use whatevey for any purpose. ’Tis true
that the brush of the painter is yet to
be used on the interior of the building,
and the upholsterer is to fit up his part
of the work, but why be always about it,
is the question that is worrying the
minds of many. We would not have the
church entered or occupied until it is
thoroughly completed, but then we think
it very important that it should he made
i ready for use at the earliest practicable
! moment. We have inquired of some of
| the building committee why the delay in
the completion of the work, and they
gave the best reasons, viz : That a suffi
cient amount of funds were lacking to
settle with the contractors for the work
done. According to our understanding
the improvements on the house cost or
will cost about $1,700, excepting a little
extra furniture the ladies propose to put
in the building outside of this sum. Of I
this $1,700, the Sewing Club has paid
SI,OOO out of tho fuuds that they have
made with their own hands and exertions,
which leaves a balance of S7OO to raise j
in order to finish the house. We learn
that the sums subscribed are adequate
to liquidate the amount duo if they were
cashed, and to this end we wt uld urge
the subscribers to come forward, pay
their indebtedness and let the good work
be completed. Surely, after the ladies
have succeeded in raising two-thirds of
the money—weak woman —the lords of
creation can get up the balance. It
doesn’t matter materially whether" you
are a subscriber or not, you ought to be,
so step up to the captains’ office and
lend a helping hand to the consumma
tion©© the work.
Every one might give something, and
we trust will, and as “time and tide wait
for no man,” and the work is at a stand
still for want of money, come up at once
and do what you are able for your God,
yourself, your family, and the community
at large.
Attention Battallion,
Next Saturday, the 28th, is the regular
meeting day of the Jeff Davis Guards,
and every member is urgently requested
to be in attendence as business of the
greatest importance will come up before
the company.
