If you want a real good story told in the
liest way, just call on Mr. id M. Compton.
Joseph will stand by us in this assertion.
A. F. Skinner & Co., want to purchase
country produce. Sie advertisement, and
then carry them any article you may have
to sell, which they may wish to buy.
Mr. C. W. Sparks, of the Eatonton Itemi
ze r, will visit our city tills week, and call
on our merchants for advertisements for
his trade issue which will appear next Sat
urday. We bespeak for our clever neigh
bor a favorable consideration from our lib
eral business men.
George S. Obear of Macon, has an adver
tisement in this paper to which we invite
the attention of all our readers, in this and
adjoining counties. Mr. Obear has been
doing business in Macon a great many
years, and is well known for integrity as a
man, and fair dealing as a merchant.
Mr. N. C. Chandler is now acting as
agent for a liook entitled “Pictorial Bible
Commentator”, a book of inestimable val
ue, and one that should bo found in every
household. We commend Mr. C. and his
book to the gopd people of Baldwin and
surrounding counties.
Mix and Kirtland, a shoe store in Ma
con we well remember, over thirty years
ago, have ail advertisement in this paper,
to which we would call the attention of our
readers. We believe it is the oldest, shoe
store in the State—certainly in Middle
Georgia.
We invite attention to the advertisement
of Messrs. W. A. Juhan <fc Co. This is the
largest and best arranged retail dry-goods
establishment in Macon and perhaps in the
State. This house is widely known and en
joys an enviable reputation for fair dealing.
They will send s imples and express goods.
Among the display of Macon advertise
ments to-day, there is one of Mr. J. H.
Hertz, Clothier, 9e Cherry Street. Tins
firm can dress you in any style of Gentle
men's wear, from the finest to the cheapest.
Our friends, when they visit the Fair, must
call and examine their stock. Remember
the place.
We have never seen prettier samples than
are no<$ being turned out by 1 be steam
cotton gins in and around the city. Our
young friend Herman Guram sent us a
sample of a bale he ginned for Mr. A. D.
Nisbet. on Wednesday, that cannot lie beat
we venture to say, for beauty and fineness
of texture.
When any of our readers go to Macon,
on pleasure or business, we ask them to
visit W. Jr E. P. Taylor. They are in the
Furniture line-are known far and wide, as
big-hearted, go-ahead, fair dealing men.
They can fit you up from cellar to attic, in
all styles, and at ali prices, from the bottom
to the top. _
Among the many advertisements, crowd
ing our columns the present week, we take
pleasure in referring to Mr. Geo. W. Burr.
In house furnishing goods of every kind,
in tin and sheet iron ware, Stoves, Grates.
Glass-ware, Ac. Mr. Burr will be happy
to fill all orders. A good house, a good

Pugh's Photograph Gallery, Macox.-
Mr. J. A. Pugh keeps up with all the im
provements in the photographic art. We are
Indebted to him for some of the new style
pannel pictures—they are simply elegant.
Visitors to Macon should not lail to visit
the handsome rooms of this excellent artist
and clever gentleman, and secure pictures
as perfect as they can be made. Mr. Pugh
spoke or establishing a gallery in our city.
We trust he may do so, and thus accommo
date the stay-at-homes.
There are fully one hundred students now
attending the South Georgia College at
Thomasville. If the Middle Georgia Col
lege at Milledgeville, was ready for busi
ness, theie would be fully one hundred and
lifty students here before the College was
in operation one month. Men of Milledge-
vlile, why will you slumber over such a
great interest as this! Eyes ye Lave, and
ye see not; ears have ye and ye will not
hear: Money ye have, and ye will not
give. Is your college to die still-born?
Cooley’s Juvenile Company, gave an en
tertainment in this city last Wednesday
night. We regret that ov.-ing to inclement
weather, they did not receive the liberal
patronage thsy deserved and would doubt
less have received under other circumstan
ces. They will exhibit in Forsyth this
week. We can< say for the benefit of those
abroad, who/have an opportunity to wit
ness the ptunormances of this company,
that they you be amply repaid for the pat
ronage JJtfey may bestow on it. It is a good
thingj/fc assured.
ne enlargement of the Asylnm for the
Bored Insane, recently provided for by the
gislature, is going steadily forward under
the direction of the contractor, Maj. J.
Fuss. One hundred ana eighty rooms are
to be added to the buildings now occupied
by the male and female colored patients—
90 rooms to each building. This work will
require 1,500.000 brick. Forty-five or fifty
laborers are employed in tills work, not in
cluding those who are Waring down the old
penitentiary and delivering the materia! on
the grounp. Mr. Koil, oi Macon, who su
perintended the brick work of our new ho
tel, has charge of the brick-laying, and is
pushing the work while the weather is fa
vorable, but cannot venture an opinion as
to when the buildings will be completed.
Lost.—On the 2Gth of September a pair

The finder will confer a favor and receive
satisfaction for any trouble by returning
the same to me.

COL. HARDEMAN TALKS TO THE FARMERS
OF BALDWIN COUNTY.
On Saturday, by invitation, Hon. Thos.
Hardeman, of Macon, addressed the people
of this city and county.
The distinguished gentleman arrived by
the central railroad, at 10 a. m; he was met
by a committee of our citizens consisting of
Judge D. B. Sanford, Jacob Oarakeiv mayor
pro tem, J. N. Moore and M. R. Bell, at the
depot, and invited to accept their hospitali
ties. During the day Col. Hardeman visi
ted our business firms, and met on the
streets hundreds of familiar faces. He was
welcome, and we think he felt so.
At the hour appointed, for his address,
he appealed at the main entrance to the
“Oconee House," wherq a large number of
our citizens, including many ladies, had as
sembled to greet him.
Col. Hardeman, after being introduced bv
Judge Furman in a handsome manner,
spoke to the large audience, about one hour.
He first alluded to the city—old Milledge-
viile—with all its pleasant memories, and
honorable record—paying a glowing tribute
to the men who served the State in the
grand old times when honesty was the
watchword all along the line. Thank God.
he said. Milledgeville stands untarnished!
She has had much to discourage her iyi the
past, tmt the morning or a better day for
her is just ahead.
The eloquent orator then proceeded to
discuss the Agricultural interests ot-the
State. Here he was peculiarly happy. He
told the ptople that the tiost financial sys
tem, was the Agricultural system—that all
the taxes of the country, and all the wealth
wpre dependent on the men who handled
the plough and the hoe. He pictured in
letters of living light, that the farmers of
the country, were the backbone of all busi
ness enterprise, and that without them, all
other pursuits would be vain. And he plead
ed with the farmers to keep out ot debt.
Right here he captivated the crowd. He
told the people, white and black, that by
keeping out of debt, they would fie inde
pendent, of capital, and preserve their homes
and their manhood. He was emphatic
against the credit system- it, he said, was
the Jonah on the ship that must be thrown
overlioard. We cannot follow the eloquent
gentleman, further than to say that, his
address to the people of Baldwin, was hear
tily received, and the seed he planted here
will produce fruits alike valuable to us and
honorable to him. We were pleased to see
so many colored people present, iukI we
know those who were there were delight
ed. Had it been known that Col. Harde
man was to speak on the street, there would
have been a great number of negroes pres
ent. The Colonel’s speech was interlarded
with numerous pointed and good anecdotes
which put the negroes in excellent humor,
and were heartily applauded by white and
black.
THE STATE LUNATIC ASYLUM,
We publish to-day the report of the spe
cial committee, appointed by the legislature
to visit the Lunatic Asylum, and repoit on
the special ease of a young man from Floyd
county, and also the general condition of
the Institution. The committee report
that they found the Institution remarkably
dean, aiid after as thorough a search as
their limited time allowed, found nothing
of which they could complain. They even
“examined the heads” of some of the in
mates and failed to find the skin of a
louse. They, however, intimate that it was
possible that the institution was fitted up
just to receive them. This is a great mis
take. The institution is open to visitors
all times, and there is. scarcely a day, that
visitors are not shown through the wards.
We have heard but one expression of opin
ion, and that was praise and wonder at the
cleanliness of an Institution that contained
nearly a thousand filthy, helpless people.
If there is a man in Georgia, who wishes
to see for himself, let him go there quietly
any day in the year, and at any hour in the
day, and he will find it as the committee
found it, in a perfect state of cleanliness.
We are well aware that isolated instances
of seeming neglect might occur where
thereare a thousand and one demands from
so many unfortunates, who require more
attention than so many babes; but the
charges brought by the father of young
Morris, ftliat he had lice on him) sup
ported as they seem to be by witnesses who
saw him after he was taken away from the
Institution, are denied most positively by
the officers and attendants of the Asylum.
This being the condition, the committee re
port the statements’ made, and make no
recommendation. Altogether it was a
small matter scarcely wort hy the consider
ation of the legislature. The report of this
special committee sustains previous reports
that the general management of the insti
tution is all that could be expected or de
sired, and all persons who visit the Asylum
know that the officers are able, conscien
tious, high-toned gentlemen, faithful in the
discharge of duty, and further that thev
fool a tender solicitude for the comfort and
welfare of their unfortunate charge, as well
as a just pride in having everything as
neat as a new pin.
• OUR SAVANNAH EXCURSIONISTS.
On Wednesday afternoon at 4 o’clock, the
Baldwin Blues, Capt. Sam Walker in com
mand, marched from their Armory to the
depot of the Macon &, Augusta railroad.
There were 32 men in uniform. Quite a
number of our citizens accompanied the
Blues on the excursion. The excursionists
readied Macon safely, where they joined a
great crowd of people, civic and military,
all on tiptoe to get aboard the train, aiid
head for the beautiful Forest city by the
sea. The following companies were on the
train that left Macon for Savannah,Wednes
day night: Macon Volunteers, Floyd Rifles,
Mitchell Guards and Baldwin Blues. The
Battalion was commanded by their officers,
at Savannah, Col. Wiley chief.
The Blues returned in broken doses, a few
as early as Friday morning, for special
reasons. The main body arriving on Sat
urday morning.
We' have heard but one expression from
the members of the Blues, and the visitors,
and that was—that they had a splendid
time—were treated grandly, and made as
happy as mortals could be made, under the
pressure of such a great crowd upon the
generous hospitalities of the citizens, and
citizen soldiery of Savannah. The Blues
will have something to say in our next is
sue.
MORE TROUBLE.
It pains us beyond language to express,
to record another act of lawlessness, in the
same portion of the count}' with the acts
aforementioned. On Saturday night last,
the promises of Mr. Luke Robinson, an
aged man, were invaded. We recite the
facts as told us by Mr. Robinson. About
11 o’clock, p.m., his tannery was tired. A
colored boy. raised from an infant, by Mr.
Robinson, and aged about 18 years, had
been posted near by, and armed, to defend
himself and charge, as his life had been
previously threatened. During the burning
of the tannery, the negro boy awoke, and
found himself surrounded. He was in a
fodder house, and as he escaped therefrom
firing commenced, the negro boy firing first,
it is belie ve<l. Ho hot was the lire on the boy,
balls penetrating his clothes, he fled for
dear lifp. After that, the party visited and
burnt the barn, stable house Ac., and the
horse in the stable was only saved by the
brave efforts of Robinson’s daughters. The
negro boy may have been the object sought,
but it is hard to account for the destruction
of old man Robinson’s property.
Personal.
Miss Annie Bagley has completed her
school term, in Jones county, and returned
to her father’s residence in this city. Miss
Annie will be a charming addition to Mil-
lcclgeville society.
We were pleased to see Mr. Henry Ste
vens on tiie street last Saturday. He is
very feeble from a severe attack of sick
ness ; but there is so much “git up and git"
about the man, tiiat we confidently expect
to sec him soon as hearty as ever.
Mr. D. Hog wood of Tennessee, has come
to town, looking quite well and natural.—
We hope he will find the current of money
matters much smoother than we have.—
Cotton Is King, and, well, mules are Queen,
we suppose.
Cap Sanford has constructed an alarm
signal on his door that will put a burglar
to flight as quick ns a shotgun would. The
light-fingered gentry had better keep away
from Mapp & Sanford's store when the
doors are shut or he will get more than he
bargains for.
Hon. Chas. J. Harris, of Macon, was in
the city last week. In a conversation with
him, we were sorry to learn that he is in a
feeble state of health, and had come over to
see his relatives, Drs. Hall and Louis Har
ris. Col. Harris was an able and earnest
friend of the Middle Georgia Agricultural
ami Military College, and nis many friends
here feel very grateful to him.
THE ACQUITTAL OF RENFROE.
The following from the Savannah Morn
ing News, so well expresses our own views,
that we adopt it in lieu of what we might
have otherwise written on the subject. Re
ferring to Goldsmith and the Treasurer,
the News says:
From the time that these cases assum
ed the character ot judicial questions, to be
decided by the highest tribunal known to
our laws, we havo abstained from any ex
pression of opinion, and even from discuss
ing their merits, feeling that such discus-
siou in the public press pending tho delib
erations of the court would be Improper.
While wo regretted the necessity for such
proceedings, we desired tnat the investiga
tion should be searching and thorough, and
that the verdict should be just anil impar
tial, free from the slightest taintof factious
persecution or partizan clemency. The
high court of impeachment has reuilered its
verdict—in one case conviction, in the other
acquittal. While there is no power in the
State to review this judgment, rendered in
full view ot all the facts and evidence, nev
ertheless we must expect that public opin
ion will pass upon it, and that there will
be many who will fail to discover why the
same verdict was not rendered in both
cases.”

present ciiv
not that I proj
idea upon the stJJ
planters to stop'
further go. At such l
waning, every day a
pie. cotton is rushed upon
ceipts are swelled, prices lowei^
giving spinners and dealers general.,
very advantage they seek to gain; when
the true policy of the producer is to hold on
and say I trill not tell until I can obtain re
munerative prices for my trouble and labor.
This resolve is only necessary to secure
the desired object in the face of a short
crop and surrounding circumstances. But
it is said in answer to this, that I am poor,
oppressed, and have to meet my obliga
tions. I would not advise otherwise. Many
are not under compulsion at all; some par
tially so; others absolutely. Now I would
say let no creditor suffer by holding; but
offer in each instance just so much as will
satisfy the demand; those who are inde
pendent taking care not to offer at all, at
such times when the market is being glut
ted. The allolted length of this article
will not allow proof of assertions made. 1
make them however and you can appreci
ate as you think proper. It is true beyond
doubt that dealers havo discovered the
planters necessity, or rather their pulsa
tions. They have no concert of action, nor
can they as other professions have, hence
they are easily panicked upon the subject
growing out of their oppressed condition
following the war. But thanks to the Giver
of all good that the dawn is fast coming,
and it is confidently hoped and believed
that the chains which have bound the plant
ing Interest will ere long be broken, and
they will, as In olden times, be able to say,
to the world of dealers: this is my product,
I will offer it for sale when prices will jus
tify and only then. So perfectly have deal
ers learned us that they actually set their
plans, form their rings to reduce prices
while in tho producers hands. This being
done, then comes tho conflict for higher
prices. Who Is so unobservant as not to
havo marked the course of things in this
respect for the last several years? Brices
open well, soon receipts begin to swell,
prices lower, planters becomealarined, rush
to sell, actually fearing that they will be
left without a market. Now this is our fol
ly to Le caught in the snare which is delib
erately set for us. All this is being done in
the strong probabilities of a short crop,
light stocks, increased consumption and
multiplying spindles, and universal peace
throughout the world. With these facts
stilling us in the face, who can doubt but
that good and sufficient prices can bo ob
tained for the present crop if we will but
hold on? not become panicked as we have
been before, and suffer ourselvestobe made
hewers of wood and drawers of water. The
course advised requires nerve, but you
have the strings in your hands if you will
but manage to pull them at the proper
time. I venture to predict a short crop and
higher prices soon after new year’s day,
and most certainly early in Spring.

OCTOBER
NUMBER 14*
THE 80NU OF EGLA.
VIEWS OF HOX. JEREMIAH S. BLACK.
This distinguished writer, orator and
statesman, recently talked with a reporter
of tlie Washington Dost. He could not say
whether the democrats would succeed in
the next Pennsylvania election. Hesaid’T
fervently hope that we shall win, but I have
often been disappointed t and may be a-
gain.” Alluding to the New York election
he said: “The coalition, between Conkliug
and Kelly to defeat Gov. Robinson, is a
most serious affliction, and is doing more
to discourage the friends of honestgovcni-
mout than any thing that has happened
within my remembrance. If it succeeds it
will be a" frightful wrong.” “To think of
such treachery is trying to the temper-
enough to make a true democrat curse his
better angel from bis side and fall to repro
bation.”
Alluding to Mr. Tildeu he said: “I don't
think Mr. Tilden wants to be the candidate
of 1880, but he can have the nomination if
he is willing to takoit. All the signs show
that. The fraud of which lie was the vic
tim in 187G, gives him a hold upon the pop
ular heart which is hard to lessen. Be
sides he is known to be a man consum mately
qualified for the first office In the nation—a
thoughtful statesman, a studious doctri
naire, with a knowledge of practical affairs
which makes his judgment almost infalli
ble.’’ Judge Black says, that in the matter
of the cipher dispatches “the loathsome
miscreants who held the returns in then-
hands tried to blackmail him; demanded
money as the price of an honest certificate
and a’true return—he indignantly and in
stantly refused to be robbed, anil then the
scouudrels fabricated the fraudulent re
turns for which they were paid by the
Hayes men. I dofy any man to lay his lin
ger upon one scintella of evidence beyond
what I have stated, which connects Mr.
Tilden with these infamous rascals in any
other way.” After referring to the fact tiiat
every one “of that godless crew is provi
ded with a profitable office he added: “It
is said Mr. Tilden ought to have seized the
Presidency and had himself inaugurated at
all risks. This is unmitigated nonsense.
If the House of Representatives had de
clared him elected then»he would have
been unfaithful to his duty if ho hail not
taken possession; but when his political
supporters in Congress permitted him and
his constituents to bo juggled out of then-
rights, how could ho remedy the wrong?
How especially can the members of Con
gress who committed that grave error
throw the blame upon him?”
Reporter.—“Areyou a Tilden man?”
“No, I am not a Tilden man; I am for the
nominee of the National Convention. My
personal preference'would be General Han
cock. because lie was the first officer of his
rank in the regular army that lifted his
voice to say a good word for constitutional
liberty, and as long as I live I will be grate
ful to him for that, it nobody else is.—
What I have said about Tilden proceeds
from a conviction that he has been cheated
and slandered, and he deserves a vindica
tion.”
Resolved, That the Board - o‘f Trustees,
having investigated the charges made, as
to the maltreatment, and want of proper
attention to the son of Mr. Bryan Morriss
of Floyd County, and which charges are
novr being investigated by the Legislature,
are fully of tho opinion, t hat the charges
are each, and all groundless, and that the
Superintendent, and his subordinate offi
cers and employees, are entirely free from
blame or censure in tho matter.—Passed.
Resolved, That the evidence which has
been collected and submitted to the Legis
lature be entered upon the Minutes of this
Board, and a copy of theso Resolutions, be
furnished to Dr. Powell, to each of the As
sistant Physicians, and to Mr. Curry, the
Attendant upon the 3rd Ward, at the time
young Mr. Morris was a patient therein.—

FIRE FIRE AT GORDOX.
Messrs. Editors;—As reported in your
issue of last week, the citizens of Gordon
were aroused from their slumbers, about
half past three, oil the morning of the 6th
inst, by the ringing of the alarm bell and
the distressing erv of “Fire!” “Fire!” which
was soon caught up and re-echoed by
scores of voices.
A large concourse of people was soon at
the scene of the (ire, which originated in the
store of Mrs. M. A. Flemister, but so far
had the flames advanced that it was impos
sible to enter the building and save any of
the goods, which was a stock of millinery,
the loss of which is estimated at $1,000. No
insui ance.
The next bnildingwas the property of
Mr. W. H. Califf. at the time occupied by
Mr. Chas. G. Anderson, formerly of your
city. Mr. Anderson, by profession. Is a
Photographer, and, having seen fit to east
his lot with us, had fitted up the building
with all the photographic appurtenances
necessary to render it a first class country
gallery. He announced himself ready for
business only a day or two before the fire,
and all, together ’with a small stock of
groceries, was lost, not even a change of
clothes being left him. No insurance. Loss
$500,(10.
Next was a two story building owned by
Mr. W. J. Bridgers, the lower floor of which
was occupied by Mrs. Passmoie, dealer In
drugs medicines etc. Loss $400,00. Cov
ered by insurance. The upper floor was occu
pied as a Masonic Lodge. Thefurniture was
lost, though they succeeded in saving the
seal and a few other effects. No insurance.
The Haines next reached the bar-room
and grocery store of Mr. F. S. Barklay.
A few goods were saved by him, though his
loss was considerable, running up. perhaps,
m the neighborhood of $12,000. No insur
ance.
Last but not least was the two story
building of Mr. King Sanders, the first floor
of which was occupied as a store room, tiie
upper, as a dwelling. Mr. Sanders feels his
loss heavily, but least, perhaps, of all the
unfortunate ones. His house and stock
were insured tor $200.
No clue is yet found, but the burning
bears every phase of incendiarism. The
citizens have, since the fire, taken the pre
caution to employ a night watchman, so
that we may hope to have no more fires so
disastrous to the village. Clish.
