A pleasant party.
Ou Wednesday evening last. Mr. A Mis.
G. T. Whilden were “at home’’ to receive
the friends who hail been invited to par
take of their hospitality: and, notwith
standing the inclemency or the evening, a
large company Idled the spacious pallors
and corridors or the pleasant and beauti
ful residence of the host and hostess. 1 he
softening influence of the Queen of Night
was obstructed by dark and weeping
clouds, which prevented an extended stroll
over the broad and handsome grounds, or
a quiet tele a tele in shady nooks, by loving
swains and swainesses, yet this unpleas
antness was amply set off by the closer
communion of the company and therefore
more general sociability and freedom from
everything like formality and stiffness.
At 9 o’clock, the string band, with Gus
Steele, as figure-head, opened the ball with
"take your partners for the lirst quadrille.”
The announcement soon perfected double
setts of dancers iu both parlors. The old
er portion of the company, and others
whose scruples debarred their participa
tion, quietly looked on. With brier inter
missions, the amusement was kept up un
til 11 o’clock, when the company were call
ed from labor to refreshment. A t-ountiful
and elegant table, whereon wore spread
the choicest of viands, was soon surround
ed by fair women and handsome gentle
men, who did not stand upon formality,
but satisfic'd their "true inwardness” with
the keenest desire. After an hour’s rest,
the dance was resumed, and continued un
til near 3. a. in. We, like the lame Gener
al, and somewhat in Tam O’Shanter’s fix,
left a little ahead, but wc have heard that
the morning’s exercises were as delightful
as those of the evening before.
Such entertainments as the ono we have
alluded to, are refilling and pleasant, and
cultivate sociability. We would be pleased
to see them occur oftener.
Among the gayest of the gay, were the
host and hostess, who were untiring in
their attentions to their guests, and thus
stimulated by their example a joyousness
they felt themselves.

Heavy and continuous rains last week
seriously interfered with the harvesting

Many farmers in the county have alrea

and a few putting the land in cotton.

they will, but the hint won’t hurl.

contained large graius and measurod six

ripe peaches and plums.
Mr. Jerome Tuttle killed a rattlesnake

The recent rains have given the corn
crop a good send off. It is now growing
finely, deep groen in color; with two or
three good rains between r.ow and tho 15th
of July, there will lie at least 30 per cent.
The annual parade of tho Second Geor
gia Battalion earns off at Eatonton last
Tuesday. Tho Macon Volunteers and
Floyd lliiles reached this city, by special
train, about 9 o'clock, a. m., where they
m'le joined by the Baldwin Blues and the
Cadets of the Middle Georgia Military A
Agricultural College. Quite a number or
our citizens, including many ladies, accom
panied tin- military to Eatonton. The l‘ut-
naru Rifles met their visiting brethren at
the depot. At 10:30 the Battalion was
formed and, under command of Lieut. Col.
Wiley, marched to the Court House square,
where Lieut. Turner in behair of the local
company and citizens of Eatonton, ten
dered to his companions in arms ttie hos
pitalities of the city. His speech abound
ed in noble and patriotic sentiments utter-
I ed in chaste and elegant language. His
warm and cordial manner made his hear
ers feel that lie meant something more than
a formal welcome, and that the g.xxl people
of Eatonton felt real pleasure iu entertain
ing the representatives of military organi
zations whose heroic deeds had made an
honorable record in our country’s history.
Private W. H. Felton, Jr., of the Macon
Volunteers responded. In behalf of the vis
iting companies, in a graceful and appro
priate address, in which he bestowed well-
merited praise upon tho citizens of old
Putnam, and complimented in fitting terms
tho bright eyes of her fair daughters.
Then followed the parade and drill of tho
Battalion, and inspection or the several
companies by Adjutant-General Baird.—
The Battalion never appeared to better ad
vantage.
The Cadels, under command of Captain i
John Mathis, were very generally admired j
for their soldierly bearing. We note with |
pleasure the compliment to them in Gen- i
oral Order, No. 49, which appears below.
Dinner was announced at 1 o’clock. The
military and a few invited guests repaired |
to the large store room where the sump- j
tuous repast had been spread for them, j
The dinner was never excelled on any sim- :
liar occasion. The ladies of Eatonton wait- i
ed upon the table in the most charming j
manner. With fine music, woman’s bright j
smiles and a feast lit for kings, it was an j
hour never to be forgotten by the gallant |
soldier boys.
Visitors who dined at the Eatonton ho
tel were lavish in their praise of the ex

It was all that could be desired in every re

EDDY high school.
This institution, conducted by G. A.
Goodwin, with O. L. Chatters, J. W. Mar
low and Madiline Phillips, for lieutenants,
has just closed a successful year, with a
roster of about three hundred pupils. A
few white friends attended the closing ex
ercises, at tho Baptist church, last Wednes
day night, and speak in emphatic praiso
of tiie proficiency manifested from the
rostrum. Declamations, recitations and
music, furnished tho rich entertainment
for tho outward senses, until tho “spread”
at the school house, near by, enthused the
inner sens?, even more gratefully. The
success of tho instructors, in training tho
young ideas, evokes no small admiration.
The incorporation of music as a regular
exercise, after the German fashion, gives
pleasing rest to the daily labors of tho
children. We commend this institution to
the fostering care of all our citizens.
STRIKE AT THE ASTLIM.
About eighty laborers employed by
Messrs. McGlnty A- Eves, contractors for
the erection of the new buildings at the
Asylum, st ruck for higher wages last Wed
nesday. They demanded one dollar per
day, instead ot seventy-five cents. Tlio
sfriko was confined to tho laborers on the
building and in ono of tho brick-yards.
The carpenters and brick-layers took no
part in it. Tho leader in the strike was a
negro by the name of Green Washington,
who, as soon as the hands quit work, came
to town, got drunk and threatened to “go
for” anybody who opposed the movement,
lie was arrested for drunken and dlsorder-
lv conduct; and when he came before the
Mayor’s court for a hearing ho was found
guiity and sentenced to a line of thirty
dollars and cost or sixty days in the street
chain gang. He is now on the streets work
ing out his fine at 50 ets. a day. No time
was lost, as a heavy rain came up Wednes
day afternoon, soon after tho strike took
place, and continued till Thursday morn
ing. By the time the weather was suitable
for work, Mr. Eves had obtained as many
hands as be wanted—many of the strikers
1*IC NIC -\T THE ASYIX'M.
The pie nie at the Asylum last Thursday
was one of the most pleasant c\er gi\*:n
at the institution. It was thought prudent
by the Superintendent, owing to the prev
alence of small pox In the state, not to let it
bo generally known at what lime the fes
tival was to come off, lienee the number of
visitors from a distance was not ns large
as on former occasions.
Since the last pic nic a substantial and
commodious pavillion has been erected,
which not only affords a suitable place for
dancing ou festival occasions, but a pro
tection from the weather and a pleasant
resort for the patients at ail times. There
were between 200 and 300 patients on
the grounds, many of wtioni joined in the
dance, and seemed to enjoy themselves
very much, while others were not loss
happy in looking on and conversing with
the visitors. Under the inspiring notes of
the music, one or two “independents” who
did not feel inclineu to take partners for
tire cotillon, seemed equally happy iu dan
cing alone, while others sat quietly in the
shade, or walked forth and back, seeming
ly oblivious or indifferent to the merry sur
roundings. It was pleasant to observe the
kindly relations existing between the offi
cers and patients. Tho physicians and offi
cers were untiring in their efforts to make
the patients and visitors enjoy themselves
to the fullest extent—mingling constantly
with the crowd, with kind words and pleas
ant smiles anticipating the wants and
gratifying all the expressed wishes of the
inmates, if possible. Occasionally they
had to Ixig off, as Mr. Windsor and ltev.
Mr. Stoney did, when urged to join in the
the dance. But if these gentlemen eould’nt
or wouldn’t dance, Dr. Kenan and other of
ficers did, to say nothing of visitors who
went there for that purpose, so they read
ily fui nished satisfactory substitutes; and
so iu other matters. In addition to the lo
cal officers Capt. Newell, Dr. Haliand Gen.
Myrick of the Board of Trustees were pres
ent. A fine string band was in attendance,
and also the Milledgeville brass band,
which filled the pauses in the dance with
enlivening music.
The dinner was all that could L>e desired
—excellent barbecue, fine vegetables, tho
products of the institution, with pies,
cakes, etc., in abundance.
The day passed pleasantly and quietly
and the Superintendent and officers of the
Asylum may well congratulate themselves
upon the success of their efforts to amuse
and benefit their unfortunate charge men
tally and physically.
At night a pleasant dance in the center
building concluded the festivities of the
day.
A 1A1.SK < H VHGE,
Milledgeville, Ga., May 29th, 1882.
Gentlemen, friends and citizens of MU-
ledgeville, Sirs:—I beg permission to deny
the charge of saying I would "rather my
sister would marry a negro than a d—m
poor Southerner." I have said nothing of
the kind, and therefore ask you to give me
justice. I am not the man that was in the
guard house and therefore am not the
man that said it. I am working Tor a New
York iiouse and he is working for a St.
Louis bouse—his name is and
mine is Quinn. We are no partners and
have never met until we came to this
tuwu. L have never been arrested and have
never seen the inside of a guard house and
ask you as gentlemen and citizens, not to
number mu with that class of people. I
have been insulted and almost came to
open combat, through some one’s miscon
struction, 1 know not whom. I am a gen
tleman and wish to be treated as one.
Give the Devil his dues and me mine. My
business has been entirely cut off and I am
left without a friend, save one, who knows
all thing- and will judge accordingly—so
hoping wiiou you hear an explanation, you
will think more favorably of me, I am
very respectfully. „

BURGLARS ABOUT.
On Thursday night a couple of burglars
entered Mr. C. II. Wright’s residence and
went into bis sleeping apartment. They
rilled his pockets or a small amount of
cash, and took away tho keys of his store.
Mr. W. was awakened by the disturbance,
but by the time he bad got iiis pistol, the
thieves had decamped.
On Satui daj’ night, tho same parties, no
doubt, bored through a window in his store,
and removed the inside fastening. They
then entered and took away all they could
carry, consisting principally of bacon, su
gar, Hour, tobacco Ac., the exact amount,
Mr. Wright did not know at the time our
information is obtained. Tho brace and
bits with which tho entrance to the store
was made, were identified as the property
of parties in the cit y. It is believed that
the thieves will be detected. As the night
was very bright, the moon shining, this
robbery is one of the boldest we have ever
recorded.

Obituary.
There roll asleep in Jesus, In the com
munion of tho Church and in the hope of
a joyful resurrection. May 15th, 1882, Mbs.
Eliza Hester Thomas, aged 83 years, 8
months and 3 days, at the residence of her
sod, Mr. Henry Thomas, in Midway.
Tho character and accomplishments of
this lady lent grace and beauty to the
community and church of which'she was
a member, during the many years through
which her pilgrimage on earth had ex
tended.
As a citizen or the State of Georgia, she
was one of those links in the chain or an
cestry that connects the present genera
tion with the far past. Her maiden name
of Neyle marshals before us a noble roll
of names of the men who lived in southern
Georgia,—Habersham, Berrien, Anderson,
Lamar, Neyle-and gave lustre to the State
while only yet in her youth.
As a member of this community, she re
moved here not many years after the foun
dation of Milledgeville was laid, and was
married to Col. J. S. Thomas in 1837. Her
name is interwoven with many of the sto
ries that tell of the vicissitudes through
which the community has passed. Edu
cated in the Moravian Female Seminary in
Bethlehem, Penn., (that community ofsweet
Christian people.) she felt the need of
Christian influence in tho community and
allowed no opportunity to pass where tho
truth could be established and the Master
honored.
As a communicant of tho Episcopal
church, she is identified with the beginning
and growth of St. Stephen’s Parish, and by
her devotion to her church, she was a liv
ing example of what can be performed by
one whose heart is filled with love to God
and man.
The glory and chief beauty of her char
acter appeared in her domestic life, whose
history will be written in these few ex
pressive words. She was a devoted wife, a
prayerful mother, and an unchanging
friend.
When her body was borne to the grave,
the coffin was literally covered with floral
offerings placed by loving hands, and
there were many in the funeral cortege
that honored her burial. It was the testi
mony that the memory of her was em
balmed in the hearts of hundreds who
knew her personally or by reputation,
from her early life, until “like a shock of
corn, fully ripe," she was called to herrost
in Paradise. J. M. S.
