If the malaria is killed out you can add all the fat hogs in the country and not be signally wrong. One man said “if there are ten thous and hogs in the county it is safe to say nine thousand are dead.” DIED, Mr. Sam Cohen received a telegram on the 6th, announcing the death of a sister in Brooklyn, New York.

As however it will be in the nature of a standing household directory for every family who gets one, and a good advertising medium, we have offered a few leaves for advertisements. If our merchants see lit to utilize them at the cost of setting up the type, they can do so, if not, they will neverthe less go forth on their mission of use fulness and good will, and no feelings wounded or chagrin felt. Go to Thornton Wheatley’s for best Kid Gloves, Bernhardt, Morquetam, and lace top kids, beautiful shades. Esmeralda. The Opera House was the scene of a brilliant triumph, on Thursday night. The reserved seats were all full without an exception, and our people were rewarded with a capital performance. Esmeralda won all hearts, and fully sustained the glow ing eulogies of the press from all parts of the country. The night was in tensely cold for this section, yet there was no going out to “steam up” by the male attendants, so wrapt were they by spirit of the play. Tho Opera House has never presented a gayer, happier and more interesting troupe, and from the very outset they captur ed the attention and admiration of the auditory, and held it enchained to the end. Such performances are worth double the admission feein the lessons they teach, and should always be encouraged by the best citizens of every city in the country. We hope this troupe will give Americus anoth er call before the season is over. Finest lot of French Candy, just received, in the city at Ed Ansley’s. Sprained Ankle. At six o’clock, Mr. Jas.

F. Brown- Committed. Demand for trial Janu ary term County Court, 1883, entered. Friday the Court was engaged in the distribution of money. Late in the day the controversy between the lawyers had not ended and the question was still pending. Court re marked, “I will stay until midnight or get rid of the matter. ’ ’ Judge Pils bury understands himself as well as the lawyers. Smoked Glasses. The sixth was a cloudy morning and the time for the transit had passed by half before the smoked glass brigade could bring their optics to play on the sun’s disk. About one, however, the clouds broke into racks and a general observation was had. Some said they had no interest in that Venus, the observations general ly eminated from widowers. A dar key made the shrewd remark that “white folks always claimed that Venus was white; but he was satisfied she was black now, as she so appeared through the glass.” As it was very probable that no glasses would avail to see the next similar event which would occur in Madam Venus’ his tory, we took a peep and found a black spot about the size of a small apple on the lower section of Phebus disk, which was the morning and evening star then lustreless and black. hnstrms ‘Vnnou'icemant!

We call attention to the advertise ment of Mr. T. M. Booker, of Lees burg. Mr. Booker offers unusual bar gains, and all who want productive land in a good state of tillage, would do well to look over these places be fore purchasing anywhere. The con venience of the lands to the railroad, their elevation and drainage, make them compare well with other places in Southwest Georgia. A practical judgment will quickly determine their superiority. Ye land buyers for per sonal use or for speculation had better visit these places, one mile or a mile and a half on the west side of the Southwestern railroad, at Adams station.

Little Reapers, listen for the Meth odist Church bell at half-past two o’clock this evening. The Republican begs every man that is indebted to it for subscription to come forward and pay up. Christmas eggs are selling at forty cents a dozen in this market. No egg-nog for us this year at that price. Remember to-day is the time for the Little Reapers to be and appear at the Church at the ringing of the beil. Hoarseness and tickling in the throat are best relieved by the gargle of the white < fan egg, beaten to a froth, in half a 4 1 ass of warm sweeten ened water. If some people would work as hard to pay their debts as they do to keep from paying them they would get along much easier in this world and stand a better chance in the world to come. “Are you afraid of tho dark?” ask ed a mother of her little daughter. “I was once, mama, when I went into the dark closet to take a tart.” “What were you afraid of!”’ “I was afraid I wouldn’t find the tart.” A lady who had invited a small company to a parsimonious dinner was apologizing for the chicken, and said she regretted having no time to stuff it. “It’s tough enough as it is, I assure you,” replied a guest, unex pectedly. Miss Gilbert, the pretty woman at the Garfield Fair, was stared at to such an extent by the horrid men that she dissolved in tears and disappeared. This should be a warning to men not to look at pretty women. They don’t like it.

Engines on hand ready for use. Avoid delay. Signs—When a man in anew suit of clothes is seen enteringagin mill with another man. it’s going to be wet. When the preacher begins his sermon by saying: “I will divide my subject into twenty-eight heads,” its going to be dry. When the members of the brass band all swell out aud grow red in the face, its a sign of wind. What are all regrets compared with the anguish of having parted from a friend—perhaps from our best beloved —with unkind and cruel words? It may have been those words were ut tered carelessly, lightly, as the wind and wanton breezes swept by; but they leave a pain; and the breeze leaves some scattering rose leaves to mark its track. Candid ites will please remember that we are prepared to print election tickets at the very lowest price. Give in your orders before the Christmas holidays, for printers desire a short respite from labor, and the election you know takes place on the first Wednesday in January, the 3rd day. Give in your orders early, as all can not be printed at once. There is a lady living in Lexington who believes in doing everything in a hurry. The other day her husband hired a man of all work who was too slow to suit uer. The other morning he was employed cutting wood while the family was at prayers. Upon aris ing from her knees the first thing she said was: “That boy didn’t strike but three licks while we were at prayers.” 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.

A gentleman of Sumter county while traveling recently, stopped over one night with a Berrien county far mer. When he arose the next morn ing he walked out toward the stables to see that his horse was attended to, when he met his host and greeted him “good morning.” His host replied, “you had better stay until after break fast, you are welcome; but you will find your harness in the crib there.” Our Sumter county man returned to the house without seeing his horse. DON’T buy your Black Cashmeres until you have examined Wheatley’s stock. Many ladies have saved 15 to 20 per cent, by buying there. Wheatley has added very largely to his already large stock of CLOTH ING, and is offering some rare bar gains, this week. Ed Ansley has the largest stok of Toys ever shown in Americus.

At a meeting of the Board of Trus tees, of the Buena Vista High School, Prof. J. E. Mathis, of Americus, was unanimously elected Principal. He conies well recommended and we predict for him much success. The above statement will show why Prof. Mathis will leave Americus. The obligations he owes his family and himself to accept legitimate pro motion, and not from any disaffection towards our city or the methods of the Public School here, furnish the motive. Prof. J. E. Mathis will leave Americus on or about the 23rd inst., for his future home in Buena Vista, and take control of the flourishing High School of that place. No man could have been selected to the high trust who would have been better adapted to the position and whose mastership of the situation would have been more complete. The schools of Americus give him up with great reluctance. We commend him to the kindly regards of the Buena Vista society, and congratulate our sister city on securing the services of so competent a teacher and a man so trustworthy.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. At a meeting of the Normal Class held the 6th day of December, 1882, the following resolutions were unani mously adopted. Whereas, By a decree of Provi dence, Dr. Geo. F. Cooper, late Presi dent of the Board of Education of the city of Americus has departed this life, Resolved, That in the demise of Dr. Geo. F. Cooper the teachers of Americus have lost one of their truest friends. Distinguished and peculiar in his admiration of the Public School system, his time, even to the injury of his private business, was devoted to its advancement. Kind-hearted and benevolent, there was no griev ance, complaint or distress of teacher, parent or pupil, to which he did not lend a ready ear. His sympathetic nature was easily aroused, and his energies could al ways be relied upon in the interest of those who needed and deserved assis tance. He was a man of remarkable firmness of character and integrity of purpose. Pure as to motive himself, he was unsuspicious of others. His noble, generous and social qualities were the means of surrounding him with numerous, true and valued friends. Proud of the conscientious performance of every detail of his duty, neither motive of self-interest nor call of friendship could swerve him one hairs breadth from the strict execution of his official responsibility. Resolved, That his memory as a faithful, staunch and devoted friend will forever live in our hearts; his labor as a leader in the cause of edu cation—a labor performed devotedly and efficiently—nave placed him fore most in the ranks of the cause of edu cation, and that his noble efforts in this cause had gained for him the esteem and love of all the teachers and pupils of the Public Schools, who to day, rise up and call him blessed. Resolved, That our heartfelt sym pathies are extended to the bereaved family in their sad affliction. Resolved, That a copy of these reso lutions be sent to the family of de ceased, and that they be published in the city papers. Mrs. A. E. Brown, Mrs. G. H. DeJarnette, Miss Ruth Brown, Jas. E.
