Editor Rockdale Register:
Dear Sir: —The weather lias been SO
very disagreeable,(as you are aware, doub
tless,) that I have not had courage to
leave the house, except to visit a few
very dear friends. Nevertheless, I see
many visitors and as most of them are
ladies, I hear some news. Weddings!
yes. we are all—l speak lor the female
halt of the town —in a state of almost
breathless excitement over the wedding
cards of Miss M. Virginia Anderson end
Mr. Edgar D. Marlin. Only the rela
tives of the bride have received invita
tions. She will b'*come Mrs. Martin
next Wednesday evening at 8 o’clock.
It is rumored that one of our beauti
ful neighbors is to be ItiattTed ? sooi>.
No cards, as yet. Of course, we are
just dying to know what the bride will
be dressed in, but we never wonder if it
will be “a blue satin slipper and a green
glass breast-pin.”
You, being a married man, perhaps
would be more interested iu something
other than weddings : elsewise I would
give you a few more on dits.
Last Friday evening I had the honor
of being admitted to the ball in which
the Good Templars meet. I remained
with some girls and boys and a table of
books, in a neat little ante-room until all
business of importance was transacted ;
then we entered the large, comfortable
hall and listened to several sweet songs
accompanied by organ music. Our dear
and honored friend, Rev. J. N. Brad
shaw, gave us a sensible, pleasant talk
in bis usual warm heaited style. lie
urged the young men to beware of the
danger of forming a habit that is well
nigh impossible to eradicate after it is
once formed. lam sure ibis society is
calculated to do much good ; it cultivates
a refined sociability among the boys who
might be prone to seek company in
bilhard-saloons, it they were not thus
restrained. I found the society of the
Good Templets vastly enjoyable, and
hope to have the pleasure of visiting
them again, soon. Success to all such
societies !
Si. Hawkins has made me one we“pop
call.” lie’s gone now to a place where
refreshments will be I hear.
I hope he will not forget to give us ll e
details on his return to his sanctum,
By the way, the editors here are quite a
mutual admiration society—between
thera-selveS. 1 judge so from the fact
that a singularly correct likeness of Si
Hawkins adorns the most Jconspicious
place in the cosy, little sanctum from
which twinkling Star rays erninate every
Wednesday morning, I have been re
minded that I’m “auihorizd agent" for

Several yo.mg ladies of Covington
are visiting friends abroad ; among them
is the belle of the city who is really one
ot the most beautiful gir’s I have* ever
met. Mr. Walter Yarbrough, of Ox
ford, married recently to Miss Lura
Morton ot Chattooga county. They
are now visiting his parents. In jour

Scarcity of Money.
There is no doubt but the present con
dilion ot all kinds of business and in
dustry is tearfully depressed, and it be
hooves every family to look carefully at
their expenses. Winter is coming on
when children are liable to Ci-oup,
Whooping Cough, etc. Coughs and
Colds will prevail everywhere-, and Con
sumption, with other throat and .lting
diseases, will parry off many. These
diseases should not be neglected. Doc
tor’s hill are expensive, and w;e would
adviso our people to take RoSciikb’s
German Syrup. It never has failed.
One bottle at 15 cents will keep your
whole family well during the winter.
Two doses will relieve any case. Sold
in all towns in the United States, and by
your Druggist, W. 11. Lee.

The People Want Proof.
There is no medicine prescribed by
physicians, or sold by Druggists, that
carries such evidence of its success and
superior virtue as Bosciike’s Germam
Syrup for severe Coughs, Colds settled
on the Breast, Consumption, or any di
sense of the Throat and Lungs. A proof
of that fact is that any person afflicted,
can get a Sample Bottle for 10 ce its and
try its superior effect before buying the
regular size at 75 cenls. It has lately
been introduced in this country from
Germany, and its wonderful cures are
astonishing everyone that use it. Three
doses will .relieve any cate, Try ii.

THE SUN.
1877. NEW YORK,..- 187 7.
Tho different editions of thiTSnn during the
next year will bo the same on during the year
that has just passed. Thu daily edition will on
week days be a sheet of four pages, and on
Sundays a sheet of eight pages, or 56 broad
columns ; while tho weekly edition will be a
sheet of eight pages of the same dimensions
and character that are already familiar to our
friends.
The Sun Will continue to be the strenuous
advocate of reform and retrenchment, aud of
tho substitution of statesmanship, wisdom, aud
integrity for hollow pretenc‘d> imbtbility, nnd
fraud in the administration of public affairs.
It will contend for the government of the peo
ple by the people and for the people, as op
posed to government by frauds in tho ballot
box and iu the counting of votes, enforced by
military violence. It will endeavor to supply
its readers—a body now not far far from a
million of souls—with the most careful, ecni
pleta, and trustworthy oecounts of current
events, and will employ for this purpose a nu
merous and carefully selected staff of repor
ters and correspondents. Its reports from
Washington, especially, will be full, accurate,
and fear.ess ; and it will doubtless continue to
deserve and enjoy the hatred of those who
thrive by plundering the Treasury or by usur
ping what the law does not give them, while it
will endeavor to merit the confidence of tho
public bv defending the rights of the people
against t&e I'ncroachments Of iffijustified pow
er.
The price of the daily Stlh -will be 55 cehtd A.
month or $6,50 a year, post paid, or with tho
Sunday edition $7,70 a year.
Tho Min day edition alone, eight pages, $ 1,20
a year, post paid.
The Weekly Sun, eight pages of 58 broad
columns, Mill be furnished during 1877 at the
rate of $ 1 a y-eir, post paid.
The benefit of this large reduction from tli’c
previous rate for the Weekly can be eh jo veil
by individual subscribers without this necessity
of making up clubs. At the same tune, if any
of our friends choose to aid in extendi’tag out
circulation, we Bliall be gmtefhl PI tftfiHi, and
every such person who sends iVs ten or more
from one place will be entitled ti)
one copy <jf the paper for himself without
charge. At one dollar a year, postage paid,
the expenses of paper and printing are barely
repnid ; and. considering the size of the sheet
ind tie quality of its contents, we are confi
dent the people will consider the Weekly SVln
the cheapest newspaper published sn the world
md we trust also one of the very best.
