Mr. R. J. Perry, who had his resi dence burned last week, has purchas ed the house and lot of Mr. Tab Oli ver, on Lamar street, opposite the Presbyterian church, aeosy houseand spacious lot. Farmers, Attention. N. G. & J. K. Prince have just re ceived a car load of the finest Ken tucky mules you ever saw. If you want real good mules, call and ex amine this lot, and purchase what will make you happy. Agents for the Telegraph & Messen ger and Atlanta Constitution. Agnes Aycocic. Ready to Appoint, The United States Military School, at West Point, have notified Prof. Lyman Hall that his name has been put on the list for appointment to the first application for a Professor from pny of the Colleges subsidized by the government. Fine Hogs. Capt. A. C. Bell has been supplying Cobb & Cobb’s fresh meat store with some very fine fat hogs, some of them weighing between three and four hun dred pounds. The Captain keeps his stock all in fine order, and when he kills for use it is the best in the land. Go to Thornton Wheatley’s for best Kid Gloves, Bernhardt, Morquetam, and lace top kids, beautiful shades. Unavoidable Absence. The collecting agent of the Repub lican, Mr. Henry Johnson, has been too unwell to appear on the streets the early part of the week, we hope no offence will be taken by our patrons from this circumstances. He will be on duty the coming week, and wait on them in good faith, and kind bus iness intentions. Grand Opening. Captain Jack Frost spread his health-dealing banners over hill and dale, forest leaves and house tops,coun try'and city, Friday morning. He can do so again by general consent and the people, will cry long live Captain Jack. He is a great friend of Charlie for the very air that accompanied him was Crisp. Esmeralda. This is said to be a beautiful as well . as touching play, dramatized by Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett and W. H. Gillette, from a pathetic North Caroli na story, and is said to be by those who have witnessed it at the Madison Square Theatre, quite as good as Hazel Kirke. It had a run of three hundred nights in New York. Our line ofCarpets, Rugs and Mat tings has just been replenished, and don’t think of buying a Carpet before seeing the immense stock of J. Waxelbaum & Cos. The People's National Bank. This Bank was organized Novem ber 25th with a capital of SIOO,OOO, $50,000 paid in, by electing the follow ing named persons as directors: S. Montgomery, A. C. Bell, C. H. Woot ten, H. Clay Bagley, S. H. Hawkins, G. W. Glover, R. T. Byrd, G. M. Byne, and F. M. Coker. Col. S. 11. Hawkins was elected President, the election of cashier and book-keeper was deferred. The reputation of the president elected for banking knowl edge and general financial success, is enough to ensure patronage and suc cess. In addition it is backed by one of the best directorates that could have been selected in Georgia, with such a cabinet of advisers, and such a president, it would appear super fluous to prophesy or wish the insti tution success. The only con tingency which can effect a different result will be a general prostration in trade and agriculture, which is devoutly to be deprecated. On Dit. Mr. Frank Eagin, of Albany, leads to the altar to-morrow night, at 7:30, in Albany, the beautiful Miss Jenie Donlavy, daughter of Mr. Peter Don lavy, well known in Americus. Fath er Prendergast will perform the mar ital ceremony in conformity with the usages of the Catholic Church. Miss Donlavy was raised in Americus and has many friends who have learned to love her for the many virtues that adorn her character. Mr. Eagin is one of the first young men of Albany, and holds an enviable position in business, has the confidence of his employer and commands the respect and esteem of all who know him. Several couples will go down to-day from this place. We wish the pair long life of happiness and usefulness. NWVV V O It K -TORE. J. WAXELBAUM & CO. Will sell our entire stock of Boys, Youths and Gents Clothing, at great ly reduced prices. Anyone wishing anything in that line will save fully 25 per cent, by calling on us before purchasing. J. Waxelbaum & Cos. Mail Suspended. The mail between Americus and Lumpkin, we are informed, is again suspended in consequence of the con tractor not making the necessary ar rangements to meet the expenses of the route. The contractor lives in Milier county, and, from what we hear, leaves funds enough topay about half a months expenses. This, of course, does not fill the bill with the government, and the people have to suffer. Mr. Geo. Thornton, of Preston, brought the mail from that town to Americus, Friday, for the accommo dation of his town. He has also been acting as Postmaster at Preston since the death of Mr. Jossey, a month or two since, no Postmaster having been yet appointed. HYMENIAL. Dickson-Davenport —At the resi dence of the bride’s father, in this city, on Thursday night 30th ult., Mr. S. W. Dickson, of Eufaula, Ala., and Miss Anna Davenport, Rev. J. O. A. Cook performing the ceremony. ATTENDANTS. Mr. Eli S. Shorter and Miss Leila Davenport. Mr. Jas. Davenport and Miss Florie Allen. Mr. A. McLendon and Miss Anna Lew Hawkins. Mr. E. W. Dickson aud Miss Leola Harrison. Long life and quiet happiness to the young adventurers. Red Root. The exceeding pointed roof painted red, of the new house of Mr. Harrison Watts, challenges the attention of those who pass in and out on the north end of Jackson street. The architec ture is what is called modernized Gothic with Queen Ann features. Mr. B. J. Sloan architect and Mr. J. B. C. Smith mechanic. The execu tion is first-rate, as Mr. Smith has been for forty years practically en gaged in building houses, and is mas ter of the art. Not only the largest but by far the cheapest lot of Jeans and Cassimeres that can be found in Americus, is to be seen at Thornton Wheatley’s, all grades from the best to the cheapest at 15 to 20 per cent, under last season’s prices. Top Crop, We have observed many wagons loaded with seed cotton passing our streets to the gins this week. The sheen of their white dorsals was more agreeable than that of the “beautiful snow” because while free from slop and sore throats, it carried the idea of comfort and Christmas pleasures. This is the top or final picking from the upland fields. It is well matured and entirely free from sand, classing about good middling. Fatal Accident. Fred Morgan, a five year old grand son of Mich Morgan, climbed up on the lever of the cane mill, while it was in motion, on Friday afternoon, when his head was caught between the lever and the frame and was crushed so that both eyes are report ed popped out. It is thought that the little fellow cannot live. He is a grandson of Mrs. Cotney of this city. China vases,ctips and saucers, and mugs all sizes and prices at En Axsley’s Stag Supper. Messrs. H. H. Collier and Jo. Dav enport gave a supper in honor of the fact that one or the other or both of them chanced to be born some time in the past, we will not say how long since as it is possible totoueh a nerve. The following guests graced the occa sion, at the Commercial: Messrs. Elli son Cook, of Atlanta, and Rust, of Albany; irrepressible Burney, of the Telegraph and Messenger; Pat. Wil liams, priest of Delphi; Thornton Wheatley; Jas. A. Davenport, Chas Fricker and the hosts, Messrs. H. H. Collier and Jo. P. Davenport. Our informant, who has the best possible chance of knowing as well as judging, represents the spread as per fect in every appointment. From the great American bird, turkey, through all the highland meats. Side dishes of fish, oysters, fried, stewed, baked, seasoned with all the condiments known to the menu of the Commer cial. Also fruits of all varieties, or anges, from Florida, grapes, from California and West Indies, apples, from the Eastern States. Thirst was allayed, good coffee, tea, chocolate, conversation, mirth and fun; jokes popped in harmony with Heidsic until the clock tolled the hour for retiring. The feast of reason and the flow of soul are represented as the richest since—since, not since, they were born; but the Commercial house or the city of Americus was incorpo rated. May they all live to repeat. A Bird that Drinks Milk. Col. F. E. Burke relates the follow ing curious item: He has a pantry attached to his residence in Leeton, with a window at the rear of it; the sash of which is always raised in or der that fresh air may circulate. The blind, however, is jalloused and the slats left open. Through these slats a little wren appears daily, and perch ing itself on the rim of the milk pan, dips its bill into the milk, drinks its fill and flies out as happy a little bird as the land affords. It has followed this up for some time, and no doubt thinks it has found a good place to slake its thirst. We‘are carrying the largest line of Domestics. Cassimeres, Jeans and Waterproofs in Southwest Georgia, and our-15 cent Cassimere sells readily anywhere at 75 cents per yard. J. Waxelbaum & Cos. Fire in Americus. On Tuesday nigjit 28th, an alarm of fire was made about naif-past two a.m. A blacksmith’s shop belonging to Mrs. Peter Croglian, on Church street, was discovered to be in flames. By a free use of the alarm bell the citi zens and fire department were soon on the ground. Wide-Awake was the only engine with a hose of sufficient length to play on the fire. It was soon consumed. It is supposed that the fire originated from hot cin ders which were pushed back from the forge. The smith had his tools heated to a rod heat. Some may be restored by tempering. No insurance. A Free Distribution. The Republican will soon issue about five thousand copies of art illus trated Almanac for the year 1883, which is now being printed. It will be useful, instructive and interesting, and will be given away to subscribers of the Republican, and all others who may want it. Avery few adver tisements will be inserted for our business men if they desire it and will call in time for us to prepare them. This is a good way to adver tise, as an almanac is consulted every day by nearly every one. Bo sure and try the DIAMOND CAROMEL, sold only by Ed Ansley. Jellies in all size packages from wine Glasses up to five pound buckets. Preserves in 51b buckets at Ed Ansley’s. Display. One hundred empty blue barrels make quite a display, especially if they are on a part of the sidewalk and one of them is a green barrel. It is not claimed that the display would have been less noticeable if the barrels had been red or yellow or black; but one hundred blue barrels were turned out of the cellar of G. W. Glover to fill an order from the oil factory, and they made quite a display on Friday afternoon. You can still find the best CIGAR for the money in the city; also, Pipes, Etc., Etc., at Dr. Eldridge’s Drug Store. A Big Owl. In order to be ready for Thanksgiv ing Thursday a large owl called at Mr. Wm. Masks and prospected around his poultry which were greatly excit ed. Mr. Isham Mask hearing the noise took down his gun, went out and found a large owl perched on the gate post, and shot him. The bird measured four feet and seven inches from tip to tip. MARRIED. On the 22nd inst., at the residence of the bride’s father, in Sumter coun ty, Mr. Joseph J. Walters to Miss Bobbie Hall, Rev. T. 8. Armstead officiating. Our Housefurnishing Goods De partment is well stocked with Lace Curtains, Lace Spread*, Sheeting, Pillow Casing, Table CloChs, Napkins and Towels, and at prices* that aston ish the natives. J. Waxelbaum a Cos. 2000 Dolls at Ed Aingleys, Cheap Cheap, Cheap, all new stock. RIPPLES. Big hominy is in order. Next Tuesday is sales day. “Esmeralda” next Thursday. This is the last month of 1882. Court of Ordinary next Monday. See Mrs. Elam’s advertisement to day. Some people are very tired of hotel hash. To-morrow is the first Sunday in December. Five hundred warrantee deeds, at this office. See Lee county Grand Jury Present ments on fourth page. We prefer to have the chicken and eggs separate when we buy. Esmeralda run a whole year at the Madison Square Theatre, N. Y. Regular monthly meeting of Coun ty Commissioners next Monday. Services at the Episcopal Church to-morrow, by Bishop Beckwith. Esmeralda makes a special appeal to the sympathy of Southern people. Esmeralda was written by Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, a North Carolina girl. Critics say, “Esmeralda is entirely original in plot, situation and dramat ic treatment.” The new “High Arm Davis Ma chine,” just out, for sale by James Fricker & Bro. Little Reapers, listen for the Meth odist Church bell at half-past two o’clock this evening. Esmeralda possesses a peculiar in terest to Southern people, since its first scene is laid in North Carolina. Remember to-day is the time for the Little Reapers to be and appear at the Church at tire ringing of the bell. Eggs are a scarce commodity it seems, but there is plenty of them packed up getting mellow for Christ mas. “My son has a great ear for music,” remarked Smithers to old Snapper. “So has a jackass.” And yet, com parisons are odious. On the 11th of December, I will open the finest lot of Christmas goods which 1 have ever brought to this market. M. T. Elam. Don’t keep all of your eggs back for Christmas. They are as good now as they will be then, and bring your but ter along with them. Wood does not come in to suit the weather now-a-days. Let us hear -from you friends who promised to pay us in that commodity. A little boy writes: “I am a poor boy, and my clothes are very ragged. What shall I do when I wear my pants out?” Wear them in again. The Senior Editor returns thanks to his many lady friends for the nice waiters sent him while he has been confined to his room by sickness. Dr.Talmagesays: “Any young man who will carry a pistol should be spanked and put to bed before sun down.” And he is just about right. The Little Reapers are not a Meth odist institution, but for the children of the city. So let all eome and join if they want to have a nice time Christmas. Brevity is the soul of wit. The ho tel keeper who wrote to a delinquent ex-boarder: “Send me amount of bill,” received for a reply, “The amount is $10.50.” A darkey, who said he had insured his life on the “pontoon” plan, when asked to explain the scheme, said he didn’t rightly know what it was, but guessed it would get him over Jordan dry shod. That Wood!—Those who promised to pay their subscription by furnish ing us with wood, are hereby notified that we are in need of that article and they are requested to bring it to us as soon as possible. “I’ve got some famous literary man for a customer,” said the tailor, “but I don’t know who he is, for he forgot to leave his name.” “But why do you think he is a great writer?” “Oh, I know he is; he ordered the seat of his pants lined with leather.” If you want a first class steam en gine for ginning and threshing, call on Hakkold, Johnson & Cos. and ex amine their large stock of “Eclipse Engine” at their engine yard, Cotton Avenue. Engines on hand ready for use. Avoid delay. " Twenty-six years ago, when James Buchanan was elected President, Mrs. Egle, of Harrisburg, put a bottle of wine aside in her cellar, and said it should not be opened until Pennsyl vania had elected a Democratic Gov ernor. Last Saturday the bottle was opened and drank with much enthu siasm. “My dear,” said Mrs.G. to her hus band, who had justslung his gossamer overcoat over his arm preparatory to taking a run for business: “I wish you would scratch around to-day and some buckwheat flour.” “I think, my love,” replied G. “that I shall be far more likely to get some buckwheat flour and then scratch around a little,” and with a mocking laugh he fled. Two or three of the most desirable dwelling houses in the city, within five minutes walk of the square, all in perfect order, will be rented low to a good tenant. Rent sl2 50 to S2O 00 per month. Apply to Hakrold, Johnson & Cos. WHE \TLEY is offering,this week, a line of Cashmeres in black and col ors, at 37i cents—the best bargain in the city. Also a line of choice colors at 50 cents per yard, betterthan many that are sold sit 75 cents, with trim mings to match. Discussing Obscure Things.

Bill for injunction and cross bill to dissolve copartnership for injunction, receiver Ac. Receiver appointed. Judge refused to discharge receiver, set for hearing 11th inst.

A darkey from somewhere else or elsewhere was passing the Cominer house a day or two since. He had just crowned his well twisted locks, one extreme with anew hat and was knee deep in a pair of boots at the other. Had the middle section re plete with local opt ion, was, in earnest conversation with his acquaintance who was doing reverence to the supe rior hat and boots as well as whisky of his didactic interloctuor, “I tell you sir” said the negro, “no one doze it, I noze mom any body down dar. I’m a gen tic man, I am, I’m a white man, I’m no common nigger, I ain’t.” So full was he of bombshell juice that he made the curbstones ring with the tread of his, heels. Weak lungs, spitting of blood, con sumption, and kindred affections, cured without physician. Address for treatise, with two stamps, World’s Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N. Y. Badly Hurt. Mr. \V. E. Tharpe of Dooly, very well known in Americus, while out hunting with some Americus boys, a few days ago, in attempting to fix a shell it exploded and tore off a part of his right cheek, hurting him very severely though not dangerous ly. We regret to hear of William’s bad luck and hope it Will prove a warning to others so that such care will be used in the handling of shells as to proclude the possibility of an explosion.
