§l* §** m. SCHLEY COUNTY NEWS, o. T. WALKER, - - - Editor. PRiN-CII-LKS 38K3T0H.8! u: 3IIST. Bllaville. Ga,, August 24th, 1882. As down in the sunless retreats of the ocean, Sweet tlowrets are blooming no mortal can see, So deep in my bosom the. prayer of devotion, l nlieard by the world, rises silent to thee. Miss Katie Royal, step-daughter of Col. C. B. Hudson, is quite ill with typhoid fever. Theke is some little rivalry among the candidates for Representative. Come out Saturday week and poll )/our coat. Tiupui* branch, upon which Mr. Sam Smith has a gin and farm, rose so high from Saturday’s rain that it wiped tip his gin dam and field <>f corn. \Vk have been having entirely too much rain for cotton, that which has opened being near the ground is .sadly stained, and where the weed is luxuri ant the green bolls are rotting. Bk careful and go slowly when you try to connect a lady’s name disre spectfully, lest yon tackle virtues that hang above your head. “Refrain your tongue from backbiting.” unless you class yourself with bed-bugs and other vermine. The tent holders at. the camp ground fed about twelve hundred persons last Sunday at dinner, and about the same number ate in the grove, making a total of about twenty-four hundred. The crowd increases every year, and during the entire meeting there was aboYkt as many as the commodious stand could shelter. Removal. —Dr. John E. Hall, who is so well known throughout Schley county, has removed to the door above Shaw’s, on Forsyth St., where he keeps one of the best selected stocks of drugs known to our market, and aside from which may he found a choice stock of tobaccos, cigars and garden seed, and a correct map of Georgia. But John Pi. Hall is too well known among us for further comment from us, so hunt his new quarters. Theke will be a public debate at the Court-house, in Ellaville, <>n Sat urday the Kith of September, at two o’clock, i*. M. The query for debate is, “Resolved, That woman’s intellect is inferior to man’s.” \Y. 1). Murray has been chosen to preside at the. oc casion. The speakers for the affirma tive are: Henry Lumpkin, James R. Williams, C. R. McCrory and It. Pi Williamson; Negative, Geo. Munroe, Jr., Morgan McMichael, John M. fol ium and V. B. Hudson, the public is invited to attend, and especially the ladies. Airs. J. M. Coll urn, of Schley comi ty, had a turkey gobler that went to setting on a nest of guinea eggs and hatched them, hut the hogs caught all of them in a few days except one, which he now places under his feath ers upon Ids back every evening and dies up into a tree to roost, and when he reaches the limb that he wishes to occupy, he takes out the little guinea from his feathers and places it beside him on the limb. This turkey does not associate with the other turkeys, but keeps busily employed in scratch ing for hugs for his guinea. C’aml'-Mkktino. —On last Friday afternoon some of the tent-holders loaded their wagons and landed at the Buck Creek Camp-Ground, and by Saturday afternoon all of the twenty four large tents were tilled as follows: Preachers tent, Snipes and Wall, Snipes, Bridges and Snider, J.H.Biv ins, Smith and Strange, Thos. Allen, McCorkle and Re Vane, Murray and Collins, Perry and Sons, Burton and Scarborough, Walker and Tinsley, Baisden, Mott aid Greene, Murphey and Baisden, Strange and Moot, Dix on and Cheney, Put. Stevens, Wesley Myrick, Royal and Patton, MaUk and Varner, McMichael and Hare, Barrow, Goodson and Womack, and Williamson and Gay. Besides L. A. Rarsey and the four or live local preachers, there were as visiting ministers: J. M. Austin. J. <h A. Cook, B. W. Key, J. K.Godfrey, Prof. Chas. Lane, R. L. Wiggins, R. B. Lester, W. I). Stewart; H. C. Fent ress, T. S. Armstead, Geo. Williams, J. E. Ware, J. B. Wardlaw, W. W. Tidwell, J. Short, M. Hare, W. A: Wheless, and George Thistlewood. There seems to he considerable dem onstrations there in a religious point, and every arder seems to move quite pacific up to ye local’s departure. There is about room chough for six more tents to complete the square, and those who contemplate building should not wait to see whether the encampment will last or not, but go rigid into it at once, build now and fa; ready for next year. One need not entertain any such idea that the camp-ground will soon go down, for the. prospects grow brighter every year, and ere long we can boast of one of the most, prosperous camp-grounds In the State. No medicine over introduced to the Profession and Public has given such universal satisfaction or preserved so rrntnv lives ns l>r. Moffett’s Teethina (Teething Powders.) Druggists tell ua the rapid increase in its sale is marvelous.
