THE LEGAL ADVERTISIHG OF THE
COUNTY.
Without notice, or chance of com
petition, or opportunity to contend
er oar rights, tbe legal advertising of
the Ordinary and Sheriff of Kibert
county has been withdrawn from The
Gazette. This action is without pre
cedent in the history of a free press
North or South. With that spirit of
enterpiise that has characterised The
Gazette the past eight years, we pro
pose to keep our readers fully posted
in all the advertising emanating from
these offices free of ail cost to th e ad
vertisers or the estates represented.
Competition is welcome, opposition
has no terrors.
FREE ADVERTISING.
Executors, administrators, and all
fiduciary officers can have their adver
tising done in The Gazette free ot all
cost; and all legal advertising of this
character being done elsewhere will
be" duplicated at this office without
charge.
There is no law governing legal
advertising, and guardians, adminis
trators, executors, and others can have
their printing done at any office they
may designate. As we propose to do
all such advertising free, those having
the in terests of their charge in mind
will make a note of this fact.
LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT.
A transient citizen of Elberton,
who left town very suddenly last week,
left behind him the following memo
randa:

AT HOME WITH THE ANGELS.
On Monday last Mr. and Mrs Kob’t
F. Tate lost their infant. Little Sophy,
a bright, winsome little thing, the pet
of the household, aged 9 months. She
was taken with croup on Saturday,
and on Sunday had much improved,
but that night was attacked with con
gestion of the lungs, from which she
died, t hus a whole household was
overwhelmed with grief because death
had trar sferred their loved one from
life’s rude blasts to a home with the
winged messengers of God. May He
who doeth all things well administer
f' flvo WionrniDg
Tbe little babe was buried at tbe
Baptist church yesterday afternoon.
INTO THE WATEB.
Last Thursday the Brownlee broth
ers were on their way home with a
wagon loaded with guano, when, as
they were crossing the bridge over the
Beaverdatn at Mrs. Gray's mill, the
bridge gave way, precipitating the
wagon and team into the stream, al
most demolishing the wagon and seri
ously injuring one of the mules.
Neither of the gentlemen were hurt
and the guano was uninjured. The
Brownlee boys are well known as
among our most enterprising and sue
cessful fanners.
PETITE AND PERSONAL.
Our merchants are making out
memorandas for going to market.
We learn that one of Elberton’s
business houses sold one day last week
eighty tons cf guano—most of it to
Grangers.
Mr. Joseph Strauss leaves for the
Northern market next Saturday. He
proposes to lay in a mammoth stocks
both for kilbertou and his branch house
in Hartwell.
Mr. Dun Adams, unabashed bv the
rude buffetings of fortune's waves,
with his characteristic energy has
opened, at his old stand, a stock of
confectioneries, canned goods, cider,
cigars and tobacco. We wish him the
greatest success.
Dr. W. G. Browne, formerly of El
her top, will marry Miss Owens, one of
Atlanta’s fairest daughters, this eve
ning at 8 30. No cards.
The ladies of the Elberton Presby
terian chuvh have reorganised their
sewing society, and are now laboring
to procure means to purchase a bell
for their church.
Dr D. W. Sisson has his profes
sional card in this week’s paper. Dr.
Sisson is one of the most courteous
and pleasant gentlemen we ever met,
and we congratulate the county on its
acquisition of so excellent a citizen,
ie is a young gentleman who is rap
idly winning bis way as a physician.
Commencin'? to morrow
evening, the Presbyterians will hold
regular weekly prayer meetings.
Our schools continue to improve in
numbers and popularity.
A negro on Mr. G. E. Heard’s plan
tation stole a pistol a few days ago,
and loaning it to another negro to ex
amine, the latter shot himself in the
foot with it. Dr.,Long extracted the
ball, with little damage done.

Garreckt’s Minstrels will give an
entertainment soon for tbe benefit of
the orphans. Knowing the material
of which it is composed,} it no doubt
will be a success.
Mr. Tinsley J. Nasb, who has so
long been a sufferer from consump
tion, died Tuesday of last week.
Important to Merchants. —Hard stock,

breakage avoided by buyiug Crockery, Lamps,
Glassware, Show Cases, Seth Thomas Clocks,
Stamped and Woodware, Looking Glasses
from Mcßride & Cos., Atlanta. They have an
immense stock of staple goods bought before
the advance. Merchants of tbe South wiil
make money by buying from them.
THE LEAF YEAR PARTY.
For days before last Friday even
ing, tbe time appointed for tbe leap
year social under the auspices of the
young ladies of Elberton, tbe gentle
men about town were on tbe tip toe
of expectancy relative to whether or
net they would be recipients of a card
to tbe same. Some of tbe ladies from
an apparent motive of tantilization, we
presume, did not make their engage
ments, until tbe eleventh hour, so to
speak, and the boys were on the rag
ged edge of suspense nntil the missive
of invitation came, but they finally ar
rived and many a face that a moment
before depicted despair now beamed
with brightness.
The young ladies were prompt in
meeting their appointments, and by
nine o’clock the hospitable residence
of Col. J. D- James was one brilliant
scene of merriment and gayety.
When the young men arrived at the
dwelling they were escorted to a re
ception rooru where they were furn
ished with every article concomitant
to an elaborate and modern toilette,
and after a certain time they were
called for, gallanted to the parlQr, and
amid much eclat, ushered into tbe
rooms where soon thronged tbe elite
of both sexes of Elberton.
The Jyoung ladies .of the house,
with the assistance of several others,
bad gone into the entertainment with
the intention of making it just what it
should be, and if they failed in any
particular our prying eyes failed to no
tice it.
Through tbe courtesy of our escort,
who by the way, was the politest,
most gallant, handsomest, and knob
biest escort of the evening, we were
taken into the banquet hall and shown
the beautiful tables, ere they had been
desecrated by tbe hands of those who
have no hesitancy in spoiling the love
ly for the satiety *of a grosser appe
tite, and iD truth we can say that the
vision that met our eyes was dazzling
ly beautiful and bewitchingly lovely.
The adept hands of the lady ot the
house, whose skill and taste iu the
management of such affairs, is so well
known, were evinced in tbe artistic ar
rangements of tbe festive boards, and
the whole room presented ft perfect
picture of a bower of beauty. This
excellent lady had tbe assistance of a
few others, and they have the pro
found gratitude of the young people
of Elberton.
To look in at tbe different rooms,
bftllw&y, or verandahs, and see the
pleasure that shone from every coun
tenance, and hear tbe merry-toned
voices of the fair females, and gallant
gentlemen as they jingled in spirited
converse, joyous laughter, and gay
song, was ample to convince the ob
servor that this was indeed an Elys
ian.
“O’ercome with wonder, and oppreM’d with joy
ThU vast profusion of extreme delight,
* Defies the aid of words, snd mocks description.”
The young ladies, or at least tbe
most of them were very general in
their attentions to the young men, and
rwon golden opinions from them.
Mr. Charlie Butt was beautifully
dressed in a black cloth suit, with
a white vest and cravat, and gold or
UUIIittLIIsK.
Col. John Carr, of Charlotte, was
beautifully dressed in a cloth suit of
black, white neck-tie and vest, with

white cravat, with an immaculate

gold ornaments.
Mr. Willie willcox wast attired in a
very black suit of cloth, with an im
mense white vest, plain white cravat,
with gold ornaments.
Prof. Burns, wore a very handsome
white neck-tie, black cloth suit, and
white vest, with gold ornaments. He
was the glass of fashion and tbe mold
of form, tbe observed of all observ
ers.
Dr. Long was dressed in the height
of fashion, his attire being commented
on as perfectly lovely He wore a bean
tiful white vest and cravat, with black
cioth suit and gold ornaments.
Col Luther Turner, however, we
guess was more handsomely dressed
than any gentleman present. He wore
a suit of black cloth with white cravat
and vest, also gold ornament".
Mr. Allen Cason's dress created
quite a sensation. Kc wore a very
black suit of cloth, a very white cra

was much admired. He wore a beau

suit with gold ornaments.
Col. Phil. Davis wore a black cloth
suit, with white cravat and vest, with
gold ornaments.
There were several other gentlemen
present whose attire we did not no
tice minutely, but we know they wore
white vests and cravats, with very
black suits of cloth and gold orna
ments.
The ladies were all attired with
taste and were the qnintescencs of
beauty and loveliness, but our 6pace
will not admit of a description of each
lady’s attire.
They looked pretty.
They acted sweetly.
They exhibited no disposition to
monopoly.
They gave the boys a valuable les
son on etiquette, if adopted.
They allowed no wallflowers.
They evinced no selfishness.
They made every gentleman fel
like he was the lion of the evening,
and of course every one was supreme
ly happy.
This social was in every sense of
tbe term a brilliant and enjoyable oc
casion, and paeans of praise will be
I sang to the ladies who managed it for
j years to come. To know what a soc-
I cess it was is only to hear the profuse
i encomiums of the young men upon it.
MARRIED.
They met, ’twa on the street—
“Oh! such s bonnet I” thought the one—
The other thought; “What feet 1”
Tet they did talk—
Together walk—
And kissed each other's cheek, and chalk.

mourn for many of them.
Little Wiliie Willcox has been call
ed the belle of the 1. y. p, but we
know a dozen boys who deny the alle
gation and defy the aliegator.
The Harwell Sun among its other
good qualities possesses fine taste.
Last week it said : “The Elberton Ga
zette is the best loiai paper extant ”
Dr. Long, when he loses anything
out of his buggy makes no noise about
it, but simply bides his time, and
when the thief least thinks of it be is
caught.
We know of no paper that is more
welcome to our sanctum than is the
old reliable Savannah Morning News.
Its pages are replete with substan
tial reading.
By an oversight the band's enter
tainment advertisement at Hartwell
did not appear in last week’s issue of
this paper. You will find it m this
paper somewhere.
We are under obligations to those
who have given us substantial eviden
ces of their friendship recently. We
appreciate these exhibitions to the
highest degree possible.
Out of fifty men who tbink they
are competent to edit a newspaper
may be found one who the public will
consider capable of running it. They
overestimate their capacities.

The damage done was considerably
less than was reported by that paper.
A man named Smith died recently

writing.
An Elbert county man of means and
ability is speaking of givng sheep
raising a thorough test in this section.
We can’t see why his undertaking
may not succed. But there may be
many reasons.
The population of Elberton was in
creased by the survey last week, and
those that thought they were outside
the the mile limit are not pleased
with the change. Mile posts mark
the distance now.
Some of the boys about town got up
a serenading party the other night,
and Elberton was treated to a great
amount of-nbisp. Some of the recip

fering intensely with headache, but
are now recovering from the sad ef
fects.

HOUSE BURRED.
We are sorry to learn that the
house owned by Mr. Geo. C. Ogles
by, in the Antioch settlement, occu
pied by Mr. Wm. Johnson as tenant,
was entirely destroyed by fire last
Sunday noon. The fire is supposed
to have caught from the cook room.
Fortunately Mr. Johnson removed
almost all the contents of the house
and saved them from the flames.
Although Mr. Oglesby has an ex
cellent house for his own use, the
bouse destroyed is a severe loss to
him.
SOCIETY ARD OTHERWISE.

Col. Lawrence Archer, is now em

vague puns, but lie goes on getting
them off all the same. He tells the
following on Little Charlie Butt.
Says he : “Charlie called on a young
lady the other day. and was invited
into the parlor by the lady of the
house, who happened to meet him at
the door. When she went back to
where her daughter was the young la
dy asked her, ‘Who is itf’ and the
mother answered, “ Tis Batt, the lit

Col. Bob. Jones didn't have any nee
