Dodson, one of the managers, to attend a grand Military Fair and Hop, at Minor’s Hall, Montezuma, on the 3rd and 4th of October. Should nothing prevent, the Republican will be represented by one of its reporters. Macon is the market—Juhan &, Cos., the place to purchase dry goods, mil linery, boots shoes, etc., cheap. Schley Superior Court. Next Monday Schley Superior Court will convene at Ellaville for one day only, as we are informed by Judge Allen Fort, in consequence of the ab sence of leading council in attendance upon the Supreme Court in Atlanta. He will hold an adjourned term of Schley Suporior Court on the first or second Monday in November. Send to Juhan & Cos., fora cata logue, everything suited to your taste found in its contents. The Artesian Well. Anew contract has been made by the Mayor and Council with Messrs. Sloan and McLendon for the boring of an artesian well. The well is to be finished by the first day of Janua ry ’B4 and to furnish twenty-five gal lons of water per minute, and no money to be paid until the terms of the contract are filled. Why' send to distant markets for your goods when Juhan & Cos., sup ply y r ou free of express charges. Cotton Picking Nearly Over, We learn from our farming friends that nearly all the cotton has been gathered, and that by the first of Oc tober there’ll be no more to pick. .This is a thUg hard to believe, yet, bom continued drouth in are ready to believe ■ceipts at Americas will five to ten thousand ■■thought, but there is time H, for ideas in this respect, and realized. gktr interest and buy dry- BBfrom Julian & Cos., Ma- are reliable.

Having moved their immense stock of hard ware to this point, they respectfully solicit their old customers and the public generally to call on them in their new quarters. Their stock is now complete, and in it may be found any article which would be called for in their line. Their line of wagons, buggies, etc., is full,and they propose to sell on as good terms as any other house does, or can. Read their ad vertisement and give them a call. SendtoJuhan& Cos., for samples. Express paid on all orders often dol lars and over. Negro Killed. We learn that a negro man sailing under several aliases, the iast of which was Fort, was shot Friday morning of last week, by a Pomp Walker, ne gro, on the Oglethorpe end of Flint River bridge, and died Saturday night. It seems that a convict had escaped from the chain gang, and a guard was#t the bridge to recapture him, this negro went along, was hail ed and gave his name as Fort. He was told to go up to the guard, but started to run, and the negro, Pomp, fired with the above result. Si. Hawkins’ saloon is now in full blast. If you want a drink of pure liquor, call on him. Gm House Burned. On Thursday afternoon the gin house of Mr. S. C. Pryor, in the 10th district of Sumter county, together with the gin and four bales of cotton, was destroyed by fire, also a large quantity of cotton seed. The loss is estimated at SI,OOO. No insurance. At the tipae the fire broke out, we learn that about twenty men were in a few yards of the house, road hands, and others, who did all they could to save something; but, everything be ing very dry, the fire spread with a rapidity that defied all efforts, and in a short time the house was a smok ing heap of ashes. Fine Clothing. During the last week we were in vited to inspect the immense stock of clothing, hats, etc., now on hand at Gyles the Clothier and Platter. Be ing the only exclusive Hatter and Clothier in Southwest Georgia, and dealing only in first class goods, we were not surprised when informed that his trade has outgrown the lim its of our immediate section. He has also a tailoring department in which the finest clothes can be made up by the best Broadway tailors, always guaranteeing a fit. Supplimentary to this is his department of underwear for gents and boys, where every arti cle called for in this line may be found, and of the finest quality. Sizes not in stock can be made to order on short notice. Mr. Gyles expressed his determination to fill every inch of his commodious building with the finest goods the market will afford. For onions, Irish Potatoes, &c., go to S. B. Hawkins, Jr. A Good Old Man Gone. Gen. Geo. W. Bivins died at his residence near this city, at six o’clock on Thursday afternoon, in the 74th year of his age. He was born in Bald win county, Ga., and served in the Seminole and Creek wars, with dis tinction. He was a good, peaceable citizen, a member of the Methodist Church and an honest, upright man. For the last few years of his life he has been afflicted with blindness; but now his eyes so long useless to him here, are gazing upon glories ne’er to this world given, where sorrow nor affliction are never known. May his joy be ondless, and tri umphant in the kingdom he has entered. His remains were bu ried in Oak Grove Cemetery at four o’clock Friday afternoon. * Rev. J. O. A. Cook officiating in the funeral services. The deceased leaves three sons and two daughters, all grown. Si. Hawkins, Jr., received one hun dred chickens at his store Friday. Call early if you want any. Wants A Southern Home. We have just received the follow ing note and in reply sent a copy of the special issue of the Republican as directed. We are constantly re ceiving such letters, and the adver tising of our merchants and others, who have lands, chattels, etc., to sell, is an index to the business prospect and prosperity of this section. Essex, Mass., Sept., 17th 1883. Please send me a copy of the Re publican and you will greatly oblige me, as I wish to see the advertise ments, and by this means become ac quainted with the business done in your place. W. 11.

Juhan & Cos., have the largest re tail establishment in the State— covers nearly an acre of floorage. The Recorder's Trade Issue. On Friday morning the Trade Issue of the Recorder made its appearance. Like the special issue of the Repub lican, it was well patronized by the merchants of Americus. This was right, and the patronage should be continued to both papers. They give useful information to the outside world of the prosperity of our town and county. They circulate all over the country and induce those desiring pleasant homes to come and live with us. On Thursday, we had a letter from Hamburg, Germany, asking a copy of the Republican, in order that the party might locate for busi ness. On Friday we had another from Massachusetts, which we publish else where, for nearly the same purpose. Those who advertise liberally are the ones who are building up thejr own prosperity, as well as the town and country around them. The Republi can and the Recorder , in the last two or three issues, have been worth many thousands of dollars to Americus and Sumter county, that will be reaped in future days.

Americus, Ga. How They Do It. Friday while in quest of an item, we dropped into the store of Joe Waxelbaum & Cos., as we saw a pile of brick, some lumber and dirt, in front of the store, which indicated E regress. Things are lively in that ouse. Ciianges have been made that will astonish customers and please them too. In the first place there is a neat little room fitted up in the rear, with chairs, lounge, water, dress ing case and carpet, expressly for the use of lady customers, from the coun try. Here they can rest, wash their faces, eat dinner, and be at home. This is anew feature that cannot fail to please the ladies, and make this already popular houso more attrac tive. A nice cloak establishment is also partitioned off by a neat railing, while in the same room is the dress goods, notions, and ladie6 underwear. Up above this room is the wholesale department, fitted up, no articles here are sold by retail, it is simply full of goods of every variety in the dry goods line. We have not space, nor time to mention one-half. On the other side lately occupied by D. B. Hill, is the clothing, gents furnish ing goods, hats, shoes, boots, etc., in these things they have the largest, finest and best in Southwest Georgia, and as good as any in the State. Over this store, in front, they have a dress making establishment, fitted up in good style for ladies who have their dresses made up in the latest fashions. They have a cutting and sewing room which will be presided over by ex pert dress makers, and will furnish and make a dress at short notice in the latest Parisian fashion. The Southern Express office is located in rear of the clothing room, and is car peted off in nice style and fixed up handsomely, and our clever friend, Sam Cooper will here always be found ready to ship your goods, or serve you in the interest of Joe Waxelbaum & Cos., the leaders offashions and low priced goods. Romance of a Ring. Before the war a party of Cherokee Indians, while journeying to the In dian Territory, fell sick at Little Rock, Ark., and all but one boy died. The father of this boy was David Welsh. Young David was adopted by one Dr. George W. Ring, of Little Rock, who bestowed his own name on him on the day of his adoption. George grew to a man’s estate, es poused the Southern cause,and fought all through the war. When the clash of arms ceased, he wandered away from Arkansas, and finally stopped at Amoricus, iu our state. There he made himself a good citizen, and wooed and won the hand of a Miss Dickson, by whom he had five child ren. A few years ago Ring moved to Macon, and died here about two years ago. A short time since the widow received a letter from Jos. G. Hester, census commissioner of the Eastern band of Cherokees at Ashville, N. C. detailing the fact of the death of the Indians at Little Rock, and also of the adoption of young Daniel by Dr. Ring. He stated that he had heard of her whereabouts from a Mrs. Jo sephus Carnes, living in another por tion of the State. He desired Mrs. Ring to send him proofs of her mar riage and full names of her five chil dren in'order that they might receive a certain amount of money due their father as a Cherokee, by the govern ment. Mrs. Ring put the letter in the hands of Mr. J. J. Clay, who conduct ed the correspondence for her yester day. Yesterday another letter was received from Hester, asking for a few corrections as to full names of children, etc., and thus the matter stands. It is to be hoped that the children will receive the money. Two of the hoys are working in Bernd Brother’s establishment. We copy the above from the Tele graph and Messenger , and will correct a portion. Geo. W. Ring was a typo in the Republican office from 1865 up to about three months of his death which took place in 1872 or 1873. He was a hard working, honest man. He was shot through the leg at Chicka mauga, but it would hardly be known from his walk. He and his wife are buried inOak Grove Cemetery, while his mother-in-law, Mrs. L. E. Dixon, with the five children, are living in Macon. One of them, a boy, is nam ed Charles Hancock Ring, for the ed itor of the Republican. To Farcers!

Engines on hand ready for use. Avoid delay. PERSONAL. Miss Lizzie Merritt, of Friendship, was in the city Friday. Mrs. Joe Batts, of Smithville, we learn, is very ill with fever. Mrs. W. H. Mercer, of Webster county, was in the city Friday. Osgood, a little son of Rev, J. O. A. Cook, is very low with Typhoid dysentery. Miss Grace, youngest daughter of the editor of the Republican is quite sick. We had quite a pleasant little call from Dr.W. A. Smith, of Smithville, Friday. Mr. J. A. Kendrick and lady, who have been absent, several months, are at home again. We regret to learn that Mrs. James Guerry is suffering from a very severe attack of fever. Judge J. B. Pilsbury and wife, left on Wednesday, to visit Hon. James Whittle, of Cusseta. Our old friend, Joe English, of Macon county,was in the city Friday. He reports dry weather, little cotton, but plenty of earn. Dr. J. T. Thurman, of Dooly, was in the city Friday. He reports every thing dry iu his quarter, cotton near ly all gathered, but corn saved. Judge J. M. Gill, of Marion, was in the city Friday. He is one of the stirring men of his county, and when the crops go back on him, all others fail. Capt. T. M. Allen, traveling for T. M. Argali, of Broadway, Now York, is at his home near the city. He is conceded to be the most successful clothing agent on the road. Ben Green, of Schley, gave us a pleasant visit, Friday. He says that rain is needed, cotton very short, but enough to pay all debts except guano, with plenty of corn and hogs. Editor Dupree, of the Dooly Vin dicator, is in the city in the interest of his paper. If our merchants de sire the Dooly trade, they should ad vertise in the Vindicator and let the people know what they have got for them. We see from the Dawson Journal. that Major Wechsler has opened a large clothing house at Dawson. He was at one time a citizen of this place and engaged in the same line of busi ness. He was strickly straight in all his dealings, and was liked by all. Willie Ross Allen, a son of Capt. T. M. Allen, is now with the large house of W. J. Roberts&Co., of New York, dealers in dry goods, notions, etc. It speaks well for this young man’s business qualities that he se cured his position over forty or fifty other applicants. THE OLD, OLD STORY. Bagley--Walker--Americus and Rome. The brilliantly illuminated resi dence of Mr. E. A. Cutts, on Alpine street, was last night the scene of an occasion of unusual interest. It was the celebration of the marriage rites of Mr. 11. C. Bagley, of Americus, and Miss Ella Walker, of Rome—a repetition of the old, old story, hand ed down from the garden of Eden— the happy consummation of the pledges of a woman’s love and a man’s The beautiful and impressive ceremony was performed by Rev. G. A. Nunnally. The winsome bride was tastefully attired in an elegant Nile-green silk, trimmed with heavy oriental lace. The groom wore a stylish suit ot reg ulation black. After the ceremony of joining “Two souls with but a single thought, Two hearts that beat as one.” in the holy bands of matrimony, friends crowded around the happy couple to offer their congratulations. Among those present we noticed Rev. G. A. Nunnally and wife, Mr. and Mrs. O. V. Lamar, Miss Ella Smith, Miss Lula Ross, Miss Lizzie Morgan, Miss Dean, Miss Hoyt, Mr. Frank Coker, of Atlanta, Messrs. John Tow ers, Millard Howell, Charles David son and Joe Neel. An elegant collation was spread for the newly married couple and their friends. Mr. Bagley, the fortunate groom, is one of the most highly esteemed and worthy young business men of South west Georgia, and is the popular cashier of the People’s Bank, of Americus. The charming and lovely bride is the sister of Mrs. E. A. Cutts, and is a great favorite with both sex es in Rome society, and she will be sadly missed by her many admirers and intimate friends. All will join us in wishing that the fair brow now blushing neath the bridal wreath of orange’blossoms may never feel the blighting touch of a single sorrow, and that happiness and prosperity may attend the gallant groom. They will leave for the home of Mr. Bagley, in Americus, this morniug, and a large party of friends will be at the depot to see them off.—Borne Courier , 2 0th inst. TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. Americus Lodge, No. 13, F. A. M. Whereas, The Angel of Death has again invaded our ranks and ta ken from our midst our beloved brother, Louis A. Bruner, who was bom June 27th, 1841, and died Sept. Bth, 1883, being cut off in the full vig or of his manhood and usefulness thus verifying the sad and solemn fact that in the midst of life we are in death. As a man and Mason brother Bruner was faithful and true to all his duties, having served his country and Lodge loyally and well. Therefore be it Resolved, That in tho death of brother Bruner this Lodge has lost one of her most useful members, and society a good citizen, and while we bow iu humble submission to this sad dispensation we invoke the blessings and protection of the Supreme Grand Architect for the fatherless and widow. * Resolved, That these resolutions bo spread upon the minutes and a copy furnished the family of our de ceased brother.

As soon as the supply of paper of our present size is worked up, the Republican will appear in an en larged form. Many a man spoils good fortune by grumbling because it is not better. God sends the corn, but the devil makes a hole in the sack. A Macon man by the name of Mr. Charles Experience iias just died in Florida. He was evidently a sad ex perience to his wife. Catch on?

How is it that when our young men put on tight pantaloons their knee joints show a disposition to cave in ward?” It is funny, but not as fun ny as it is curious. It takes a smart man in these days to keep posted on the various swind ling schemes of a class of people who will go to any extreme rather than honest labor to obtain the filthy lu cre. We have been requested to state that Rev. J. O. A. Cook will preach a sermon on Sunday morning in the Methodist church, of much interest and benefit to every man, woman and child in the city. All are invited. An observer of things draws our at tention to the fact that those of the daily waiting throng who exhibit most impatience for the post-oflice to open are commonly the ones who sel dom receive anything through the mails. Tlie special edition of the Sumter Republican last week is a most val uable and exhaustive exposition of the advantages and . resources of Southwest Georgia, and should be in the hands of every one desiring in formation of that section!— Griffin News. An aged physician who practiced much among the ladies, made a large fortune. It was his custom to say to every feminine patient, “Show me your tongue, honey! There, that will do, dear! You will be well in a week, thank God, my dear!” A little girl unconsciously' and very touchingly testified to the excessive drudgery of her mother’s life when on being asked is your mamma’s hair gray?” she replied, “I don’t know. She’s too tall for me to see the top of her head, and she never sits down.” “Feel just—hie—glor’us, old fel’; wazzyer ’pinion me, any how, drunk esman —hie—yever saw, eh?” “Yes, that’s about it.” “Would you like to see a—hie— drunker man than I’m?” “Well yes, I think I would, just as a curiosity, you know.” “All ri—hie—you can se’m, if you —hie—just hunt me up in an hour, an’ interdoose y’self.” Some people, when they get their paper, turn to the inside the first thing and read the home news, and oftentimes never so much as give the outside a passing notice, and thereby miss many good thiugs. Never do this. Read all of your paper and get all we give for the money. Cast your eyes over all the advertisements and notices, and see what everybody is up to. CLOSING OUT SALE.

Mliaw, THE BOSS Dry Q-oods MERCHANT, ForsythSt., Americus, Ga. From a Staff Correspondent. Leesburg, Ga., Sept. 21st, ’B3. Dear Republican: I am reminded that according to promise, the duty devolves upon me to “drop you a few lines” from this point. After leaving you on Wednesday last, a very pleasant ride brought me here on schedule time, when the opportu nity was presented of saluting and “shaking with” kinfolks, acquaintan ces and friends. A short while with these sufficed to acquaint us with the fact that the shortness of thejeotton crop is the all absorbing topic which now engrosses their attention. From the very best information I have been able to ob tain I estimate the crop of this por tion of Lee county at not more than three-eighths, if so much. As an il lustration of this I am informed that one large farm near here, which has usually made from 250 to 300 bales will not make more than 75 or 80 bales. There are others which will do some thing better, while many will do worse. All agree that corn enough has been made to supply the de mands, and that the meat supply will largely be met at home, but how debts are to bo met with such short cotton crops is a question for which no one has a solution. Of course such a condition of affairs must necessarily produce stagnation in business, anil we find the merchants generally idle, and somewhat despondent. Suppose you have already been informed of the assignment of Booker & Fiver of Adams’Station. This was a firm of enterprising gentlemen and we hope that theirs may not be one of many assignments resulting from the fail ure of crops. ’While here we have conversed with many of those who engaged in the melon and truck business this season, and have not found one who claims to have made anything in the busi ness, and we incline to the opinion that there will not be so many engag ed in truck farming another year as there were this. Our special edition has met with general favor down here. All speak of it in terms of highest praise, and the author of the article setting forth the claims of Southwest Ga. general ly, may justjy feel proud of his lau rels. I had the pleasure of meeting “Un cle Kit,” of the Telephone yesterday, and, although he is not fully restored, was glad to find him improved and hopeful of speedy restoration to his accustomed health and vigor. May his hopes be speedily realized. As time and paper are both out I must close. F.— Cigars, cigars, smoking tobacco.
