The Baptist Picnic*
The Baptist Picnic on the 6th of June,
at the beautiful residence of the widow of
Augustus Kenan, was a success in every
particular: Very large attendance, and
everything was done “decently and in
order." A more pleasant place could not
have been selected in or near the city.
The day was beautiful and the children
ami grown people, all enjoyed themselves
in play and social confab.
Dinner was served about 2 o’clock p.
m The supply of provisions was rich and
abundant. We did not hear the table
ijrimn under its burden, bnt it waa be
cause it was made of pine plank and was
pressed into silence by the weight of its
burden. There was an amazing amount
of good eating, laughter, lively conversa
tion and general hilarity immediately on
the upper side of the table, and there
about.
tar By special request of friends, Dr.
W. L Hitchcock, will visit Milledgeville
on the 12th of June, and remain two
days. He will be glad to meet all per

as Liver and Dyspeptic affections, Female
Diseases, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Sick
Head Ache, Dropsy, Cancers, Ulcers,
Scrofula, Skin Diseases of all kinds.
Having met with decided success in
the treatment of Chronic Diseases for
the last thirty years, he feels that he can
safely guarantee perfect satisfaction, and
could, if necessary, produce hundreds of
testimonials of permanent cures, but be
ing well known throughout the State,
deems it unnecessary. Charges moder

will see the necessity of inaugurating the
canvass promptly, boldly and actively.

men, there is almost certain to be trouble
in the Radical camp. The organs are op
posed to the re-election or Walls and
Pnrman, while the friends of these per
sons ask why they should be shelved.
Tljere will be a strong fight over the
nominations, and the result will doubtless
be a scrub race between ambitious Re

We find in tbe “Clipper of Warrenton
an interesting account of the recent
meeting in tliat place of the Augusta
District Conference of the African Meih
odist Episcopal Church. The Confer-,
ference was in session three days, Bishop
T. M. D. Ward presiding, and Rev.
George H. Neely being Secretary. The
official account appears at length in the
Clipper, and shows the transaction of
much interesting business. A resolution
pledging the moral and pecuniary aid of
the Conference to Rev. Levi NY alker of
Milledgeville for his efforts in establish
ing a clnuch in this city was adopted.—
The erection of a church in the north
western portion of our city has already
been commenced. The next meeting of
the Conference will take place in this city
in 1875.
Dedication.
The interesting ceremony of the dedi
cation of the Roman Catholic Church in
our Qity was performed last Sunday in
the presence of an immense concourse of
people. A special train from Macon ar
rived in the early forenoon, bringing (as
we heard the estimate made) about a
thousand visitors. A great number of
our own citizens were present at the
interesting and solemn ceremony. The
Dedication ceremony was conducted by
Rev. Mr. Garboury of Macon, the accom
plished President of Pio Nono College in
that city. Rev. Fathers O’Keefe and
Fiuucane (also of Macon) took important
parts in these ceremonies. The day was
beautiful, and everything passed off hap
pily. The special train left our city to
return to Macon at a little after five in
the afternoon, withdrawing the delighted
throngs who had lentna pleasant aspect to
our city for many hours. The old Capi
tol grounds shaded with beautiful elms,
aud the old Capitol Building itself, rich
in historic associations connected with
the bettor days of Georgia, constituted a
favorite haunt for these pilgrims of a day,
after the Dedication ceremonies had ended
We trust all of them carried away pleasant
memories of Milledgeville.

Editors Union & Recerder :
I see in your last issue an editorial ale
lusion to one of the temperance brothers
of this county who was misled or “sold’
by some of the idle men of vonr city,
into making a search for “Tom Collins”
with the view of getting a temperance
address from him. This brother knew
the great necessity for a temperance ral
lying in the city; for the men, by oppo
sition and ridicule, caused many that
were once on the stool of repentance to
return to their wallow, and have succeed
ed pretty well in breaking up the tem
perance council in Milledgeville. The
young ladies that once turned out by
scores have been influenced, I fear, by
the unwise counsel of the young men to
have their social chat at home, or other
places, rather than go to the Council ball
where others could see then- sweet faces
and hear their kind words, and aid in the
promotion of temperance. Young ladies
and gentlemen this sin is on your should
ers. This brother, having the good of
mankind at heart, was stirred to action
when fathers and grandfathers told him
a temperance lecturer from .Savannah was
in the city, and no one had invited him
to make a speech, and he expected or
hoped to accomplish some good, as a
crowded house was soon promised. This
is a good missionary field and some
prominent temperance lecturer should
visit Milledgeville soon to awaken new
interest in the temperance cause.

Bresbyterian Sunday School Bic Nic
Came off pleasantly last Friday, the
5th inst. The children had a delightful
day. Arrangements were first made to
have it in the grove east of the river; but
because of threatened inclemency of weath
er, it was thought best to change to Mr.
Carrington’s School house. The morn
ing was cloudy—children commenced
seeking the Superintendent and assistant
Superintendent, at an early hour to
know if they “would have the pic nic.’’
About nine o’clock, the clouds passed
away; the sun shone out; and the bell
rung. Those who were not already pro
vided with conveyances, met at church
forming quite a large party. A capacious
wagon, without springs, drawn by two
mules stood ready at the door to convey
them to the grounds. Two trips sufficed
to transport them—the children enjoyed
the ride greatly. By 10 1-2 o’clock a. in.,
all were on the ground—soon swing’s
were up and in use—croquet grounds
were prepared, &c., which afforded much
pleasure; and groups of the larger schol
ars were seen here and there under the
shade of some large oaks, or in some se
cluded bower engaged in conversation;
others gathered flowers and mosses.
The grove was beautiful: and at high-
noon, the merry laugh from many a hap
py heart told plainly that tlie pic nic
was a success. Children jumping, swing
ing, sitting or strolling in groups, made
a most beautiful .picture.
Mr. Carrington’s old school bell gave
tbe retli to dinner, about 11-2 o'clock.
The table would have groaned with its
precious weight if it had had power of
such utterance. The children did ample
justice to its “bill of fare, and then re
turned to their happy sports.
About 5 o’clock p. m., the friendly
wagon drove up, and in two successive
Its observance is more com

from giving them a “fearful blast" on
tlieir wedding night. Occasionally the

M hen a certain young man not long
since proposed to and was accepted by
an elderly widow lady at the east end,
there was quite naturally some table talk
about the affair among the neighbors
Some said he was crazy, others said he
was a silly ass, and a large number of
marriageable ladies declared that he was
a man of no taste, “a mercenary wretch,’
and “a horrible brute." The age of the
bridegroom. was about twenty-three,
while the bnde might readily have remem
bered incidents contemporaneous with
the battle of New Orleans.
But “there is no accounting for tastes,"
runs the old saying, and hence, if R—
preferred the well-tested charms of Mn
® to the budding blanisliments of
Miss Flora McFlimsey, of West Broad,
way, it was his business, and not “any
other man’s.” But they, (the other feh
lows,) were determined that the affair
should not go off shabily, and it was a-
bout two o cloqk when they surrounded
his castle, armed with a little of every-
thing in the anti-melody line, from a tin
cup to a brass kettle.
R. stood it for some time like a little
man; but even the patience of a saint
will “weaken” with too much of a good
thing. Therefore, he went to the front
window, and, looking down upon his tor
mentors as placidly as the circumstances
would allow, remarked : “Boys, ain’t you
afraid that yonr’e a overdoin’ this 'ere
thing a bit ?"
Shet yer fly trap!’’ “Put a head on
lm! and other similar observations re»
sounded from below, and a few well direc
ted brickbats caused the bridegroom to
beat a hasty retreat. And still the bub-
bub went on outside, while the inmates
of the castle formed a ring en dishabille
and deliberated upon the situation. Some
were in favor of capitulating and supplying
the requisite amount of fluid; but the
bridegroom stoutly resisted, declaring
that he would fight it out on that line if
it took him till broad daylight. At this
moment, a little daughter of the bride re
marked: “Ma, why don’t you shoot them
with them rockets in the closet ?”
An excellent idea. Mr. R saw it at
once. He had noticed a large number of
rockets, roman candles^ etc., purchased
for an exhibition which* never occurred.
So acting at once upon the suggestion
he secured the fireworks, and opening
the window commenced a rapid volley
upon tbe musical gentlemen below. It
acted like a charm. One man had liis left
eye put out with a ponnd rocket, another
bad his clothes burnt off by a bunch of
fire crackers falling into his pocket, and
a third, finding his wig cremating, wjis
compelled reluctantly to leave it behind.
In less time than it has taken us to de
scribe tlio scene the yard was cleared, and
the bridegroom once more sought the
arms of—Morpheua
Obedience nr Children.—Unquestion
ing obedience we must demand from the
fluid for their own safety. It may often
lie a question of life and death whether
the little girl runs*wiien she is called, or
throws av, ay something which she has in
her band instead of putting it into her
mouth. But has not this habit of obe
dicnee a higher office than this? It is the
first yielding of tlie untrained will to
rightful authority, and as such lias au
immense significance. The mother who
cannot train her daughters and sons to
obedience were better childless, for she
is but giving to her country elements of
weakness, not elements of strength. She
is fumislung future inmates for jails,
penitentiaries, and prisons, and putting
aims into the hands of tlie enemies of law
and order.—Jfiss A. C. Brackett.
A live Judge-
The Savannah correspondent of the
Augusta Sentinel thus notices the Judge
of this circuit. A live Judge is evidently
a curiosity in the Forest City:
A Judge who Meins Business.—Yes
terday morning Judge Bartlett, of Monti
cello, occupied the bench of the Superior
Court, and proceeded to work in a man
ner that satisfied every one he meant bus
iness.—In fact, in order that they might
not be mistaken upon this point, he
stated in the most emphatic tone he had
come here for the purpose of transacting
business, and he intended to carry that
purpose out—When the Clerk had call
ed tlie jury, Judge Bartlett asked for the
names of those who were not present,
when he immediately entered a fine of
325 against each and instructed the
Sheriff’ to collect the same without de
lay. The bailiffs were brought up at a
round turn and informed’ that they were
required to be vigilant -in the perform
ance of tlieir duties, and if any distur
bance or disorder occurred in the corridor
or the court room, he would fine them
accordingly. The legal fraternity was
next taken in hand, and notified that
they were expected to be prompt with
tlieir witnesses and ready for trial when
tlieir cases were called, otherwise the con
sequences would be with them. Such a
general shaking up of things lias not
been witnessed in the old Chatham Court
for many a day. The change however is
relished by some of the lawyers, who
eally are w orn out with the frequent in
terruptions to the business of the Court
which have occurred of late. There are
at present about one hundred cases on
tlie criminal docket, and Judge Bartlett
announced his determination to clear it
within the next two weeks. If he suc
ceeds the country will be greatly benefi
ted by liis coming, as the expense of feed
ing these offenders is no trifling affair —
If pliysiogomy be a reflex of a man's
character, I am sure that Judge Bartlett
means exactly what he says, neither more
or less.

Shipments •! Bins Timber and Sum
“ her from ttaortia.
It is found from the Custom house re
ports that 60,000,000 feet of pine timber
a-iad lumber- were shipped to markets
abroad from this State, m the year 1868.
In 1873 a little over 200,000,000 feet were
shipped, being an increase, annually, of
27 per cent. Total amount shipped from
1868 to 1873, 700,000,000 feet.
It is estimated that there are (3,000,000)
three millions of untouched pine forest
within the pine belt of the State. An
average yield of 6,000 per acre would pro
duce eighteen billions of feet. It will be
seen by a computation of numbers that
an increase annually of 27 per cent,
will ent all the timber now remaining
from the entire forest. In the foregoing
estimates are not made of the amount of
timber consumed for railroad purposes,
domestic nses and naval stores.
The lands in the timber districts of the
North and Canadian colonies liave been
denuded of thair timber, and this (forrn-
sonable to suppose that the deficiency of
sapplies from that quarter will be drawn
from the pine belt upon the Atlantic
slope. The great prairies of the West
and Southwest will consume all the pine
timber that can be spared from the Gulf
coast
“Civil mights** tn Connecticnt.
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican of
Tuesday prints a card from two negroes,
late pupils in a school at Suffield Connec
ticut l>ut who seceeded on account of liav-
ing their “rights” denied them. The
following extract contains the gist of the
stony.
“With tins view, we entered the litera
ry institute at Suffield, Conn., under the
eoiftract of jointly discharging the duties
of janitor, in consideration of our board
and tuition. We had discharged this
doty for nearly a year and a half, and,
we believe, to tbe satisfaction of all par
ties interested. We had recited regular
]y in the classes, had taken onr meals at
the common table, and had mingled with
out restraint with the students as class
mati*t and friends. Judge then of our,
surprise when, on a recent morning, the
steward of the institution called upon us
and infeznfed ns>hat we eoali no longer
tU at meals with the other students. He
gave as his reasorf for our disgrace, that
six studei^ts-^were luwtflinR to sit at tha
same table, and had demanded their bills
unless w£ should be removed. He pro
posed that we either should take our

Dr. J. Walker’s California Vin
egar Bitters are a purely Vegetable
preparation, made chiefly from the native
herb* found on the lower ranges of the Sier
ra Nevada mountains of California, the
medicinal properties of which are extract
ed therefrom without the use of Alcohol.
The question is almost daily asked, ‘‘What
is the cause of the unparalleled success of
Vinegab Bittees?” Our answer is, that
they remove the cause of disease, and tha
patient recovers his health. They are the
great blood purifier and a life-giving prin
ciple, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator
of the system. Never before in the history
of the world has a medicine been com
pounded possessing the remarkable qual
ities of Vinegar Bitters in healing the sick
of every disease man is heir to. They are a
gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, reliev
ing Congestion or Inflammation of the
Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Dis
eases.
If men will enjoy good health, let
them use Vinegar Bitters as a medicine,
and avoid the use of alooholic stimulants
*n every form.
No Person can take these Bitters
according to directions, and remain long
unwell, provided their bones are not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other means,
and vital orpins wasted beyond repair.
Grateful Thousands proclaim Vine
gar Bitters the most wonderful Invigor-
ant that ever sustained the sinking system.
Bilions, Remittent, and Inter
mittent Fevers, which are so prevalent
in the valleys cf our great rivers through
out the United States, especially those of
the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois,
Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, Red,
Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Ala
bama, Mobile, Savannah, Roanoke, James,
and many others, with their vast tribu
taries, throughout our entire country dur
ing the Summer and Autumn, and remark
ably so during seasons of unusual heat and
dryness, are invariably accompanied by ex
tensive derangements of the stomach and
liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a powerful
influence upon these various organs, is
essentially necessary. There is no cathar
tic for the'purpose equal to Dn. J. W alker's
Vineg ab Bitters, as they will speedily re
move the dark-colored viscid matter with
which the bowels are loaded, at tlie same
time stimulating the secretions of the
liver, and generally restoring the healthy
functions of the digestive organs.

Heart, Inflammation of the Lun^r*, Pain

dred other painful symptoms, are tlie off
springs cf Dyspepsia. One bottle will
prove a better guarantee of its merits than
a lengthy advertisement.
Scrofula, or King’s Evil, White
Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas. Swelled
Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations,
Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Affec
tions, Old Sores, Eruptions oi the Skin,
Sore Eyes, etc., - etc. In these, as in all
other constitutional Diseases, Walker's
Vinegar Bitters have shown their great
curative powers in the most obstinate and
intractable cases.
For Inflammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remittent
and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the
Blood, Liver, Kidneys, and Bladder, these
Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases ore
caused by Vitiated Blood.
Mechanical Diseases.—Persons en
gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as
Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and
Miners, as they advance in Kfe, are sub
ject to paralysis of the Bowels. To gnard
against this, take a dose of Walker’s
Vinegar Bitters occasionally.
For Skin Diseases, Eruptions,Tetter,
Salt Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples,
. Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ringworms,
Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch,
Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Hnmors
and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name
or nature, are literally dug up and carried
out of the system in a short time by the
use of these Bitters.
Pin. Tape, and other Worms, ink
ing in tno system of so many thousands, are
'effectually destroyed and removed. No
system of medicine, no vermifuges, no
anthelm ini tics, will free the system from
worms like these Bittern.
For Female Complaints, m young
ek old, married or single, at the dawn of
womanhood or the turn of life, these Tonic
Bitters display so decided an influence'
that improvement is boob perceptible.
Jaundice.—In all cases of jaundice,
rest assured that your liver fa not doing ite
work. The only sensible treatraomt is to
promote the secretion of tbe bile and
favor its removal. For this purpose use
Vinegab Betters.
