Fine Pcnra
We were shown some very fine
pears yesterday that came from a tree
in the garden of Mr. II. Beosse. v He
hud quite a number of them in his
store nn exhibition, and were surpris
ed when he told us that they would
average eighteen ounces apiece. We j
were convinced, however, when on !
dropping one in the scales it pulled up
eighteen and a quarter ounces. Out
of a bushel gathered, they average
about the same weight. Who can
beat this pear story ?
Lost Child.
For the benefit or the father Josiah,
Holland, of Midville, Burke county,
Ga., we publish the followin': in the I
hope that it may lead to the recovery |
of his lost child: “ In the year 18155,
my wife, Polly Ann Holland, ran
away from Burke county, Georgia,
with a man by the name of A. L.
Hatheock, and carried with her my
daughter, Emma Virginia Holland,
born in February, 1862, and now
about fifteen years of age. The child
was of florid complexion. Discription
of the mother of the child is as follows:
Aged thirty-niue years, born and rais
ed in Burke county, Georgia, com
plexion light, gray eyes, light hair,
about five feet and six inches high.

Oak Grove Lodge No. 77.)
1.0.0 F. Sept. lHth, 1877. \
Wiien afflictions fall upon us, and
the spirit is sorely tried ; when death
enters a band of brotherhood ar,d bears
away a much loved one, how sweet,
and soul-cheering in such hours of
gloom, to know that a kind, loving
father doeth all things well. When
nn earnest, faithful Christian, in the
full glow of early manhood, is sudden
ly called away from life's busy strife,
we stand in awe, as we almostticar a
voice from above, saying, son, “ come
up higher,’’ life’s work for thee is done,
“enter then into the joys of thy Lord.”
In submission to the will of God,
and in memory of our departed brother,
we place these resolutions in the
archives of our Lodge.
Resolved 1st. That in the death o*
I brother Ilenry Hunt, the Lodge has
! lost ono of its most useful and esteemed
I am anxious to recover my daughter i members, and that a page on our
in order to educate and provido for
her, and ask the friends of humanity
evervwhere to give mo any informa
tion that may lead to the discovery of
her present whereabouts.” Any infor
mation communicated to the editor of
the Swainsboro Herald, will be for
warded to the father.
'Wtio Dock the Printing;?
Who does the printing for the
Northeastern Railroad? Owing to
the fact, that this is a now enterprise
and should- pra. tice all possible econ
omy in the expenses of the road, it
scciu* to us that it would be well for
the management of this particular
department to ascertain where this
work could bo ■ dono cheapest and
best. As we are running a job de
partment in' connection with our pa
per, and as our rates for this kind of
work are very reasonable and not hav
ing been called upon to make a bid on
this work, wc are curious to know
where it is done. Is it possible, that
the work goes away from Athens ?
records be kept in honor of his meraor.
Resolved 2d. That we sincerely
sympathize with the afflicted family in
their deep grief over the loss ot our
brother.
Astonishing Success.—It is the
duty of every person who lias used
Boschee's German Syrup to let it*
wonderful qualities be known to their
friends in curing Consumption, severe
Coughs, Croup, Asthma, Pneumonia,
and in fact all throat and lung diseases.
No person can use it without immediate
relief. Three doses will relieve any
case, and we consider it the duty of
all Druggists to recommend it to the
poor dying consumptive, at least to try
one bottle, as 40,000 dozen bottles
were sold last year, and no one case
where it failed was reported. Such a
medicine as the German Syrup can
not be too widely kuown. Ask your
Druggists about iL hainple Bottles to
trv sold at 10 cents. Regular size 75
cents. For sale by
R T. Brumuy & Co.
Some two weeks ago we promised
when this house, which was -under
going repairs and being enlarged to
more fully accommodate their im
mense stock of goods, was finished,
that we would give a more extended
notice of this firm and their business,
and as the workmen have since then
completed their labors and the new
goods have been arranged therein,
there is nothing left but for us to
keep our promise.
The Improvements.
The walla and partitions which
were in the house have been taken
down and all thrown into one com
modious and large room, where the
goods are displayed on counters and
on the floor, with passages between
each mammoth pile for the numerous
genteel clerks to pass to and fro
while waiting on customers, and where
the senior partner, Mr. Reaves, can
stand at his counting room, or any
where else in the honse and see
everything going on from one end of
this gigantic storeroom to the other,
and while be looks and watches, it is
patting it mildly when we say, be is
“ Monarch of all he surveys.”
Tln-lr Immenw Htock.
Our readers ean form some convep- j
tion of their busim-s- l*v the following
summary of their si.u-k : They now
have in their store mid warehouse,
500 barrels of sugar; 3,000 sacks salt;
50,000 yarils bagging; 5,000 bundles
arrow ties; 200 sacks coffee; 3' 0
barrels flour; 1,500 sacks corn ; 100,-
000 pounds bacon; 50 tierces lard;
25 tierces hams; 400 kegs nails; 25
hogsheads molasses; 100 barrels mo
lasses; 50 barrels syrnp; 200 bales
chocks, jeans and kerseys. Outside
of this line they have other large
stocks, including ticking, sea island
bleaching, fancy groceries and canned
goods, such as jellies, pickles, sardines,
oysters, lobsters, Btrawberries, canned
meats, tomatoes and pineapples.
Their fount lng Room.
Ill the arrangement of the store
Mr. Reavg« also looked to the comfort
of his bookkeeper, Mr. W. D.
O’Farrdl, who has been with this
house for a number of years, and in
this capacity lias won a reputation for
honesty and business integrity that
any one might well feel proud of.
Mr. O’Farrel is assisted in this de
partment by Mr. James Grant, and
under their supervision the books and
business of the house are kept in an
admirable manner. We would like
to give each and every one connected
with Messrs. Reaves & Nicholson a
complimentary notice in this review,
hut our space wi.l not admit of a more
extended article. Suffice it to sav,
.however, that they are all clever,
genial and wholesouled gentlemen.
Their Fame.
The name of this house is known
from the mountains to the seaboard,
tnd is a tower of st length in North
east Gcrgia. Their business rela
tions are of the best character and
heir credit is as good as any other
firm in this or any other State. By
their strict • ttention to business and
honest dealing with their many cus
tomers throughout the State they
have amassed a fortune, and this
notoriety alone has brought millions
of dollars to their doors in the past
and has blazed a road to wealth and
commercial greatness in the future.
To tbo Pnbllo,
we would say, and especially to the
jobbing trade of North Georgia, why
seek Augusta or Atlanta as markets
wlieti such an establishment ns Reaves
& Nicholson, to say nothing ofotheis,
can lie found in Athens. Their prices
will compare most favorable with, *f
not prove less, than those of either
of the cities above mentioned. The
facilities now offered you by the
Northeastern Railroad arc quite as
good as those which lead you to Au
gusta or Atlanta, and indeed the dif
ference in distance would greatly re
duce your expenses in freight and in
going to and iroai market. Again,
I Athens offers quiie as good, if not a
can be found in any city accessible to
your section of country. Call upon
this firm and examine for yourselves,
and if alb we fiave said of it, is nut
true, we will agree to own up to a
.deception greater than -eanyposwibly
be yonr disappointment or expense at
making the trial.. . J
COMMERCIAL.

surely health depends upon pure'

maintains the blood ia a state of pur

Correspondence.'
[For tbs Athens Georgian.]
Mr. Editor—I loam by the news
papers, that in a short lime, the peo
ple of Georgia will Vie required to
vote for or against adop'ing t'*c new
Constitution Permit me to state a
few facts, and make a few brief corn-
woman writes as follows: “ If I b»-
longed to the medical persuasion and
an editor called me a lady doctor, I
would perscribe for that literary light I
gratuitously, and administer a dose
which would purify him of his vulgar
gentility.” "
A Very Good Reason.—The rea
son why only one sample bottle of
Murrell’s Hkpatixk for the Li»er
will he sold to the same person for
ten cents by onr Druggist, Dr. C. W.
Long & Co. is because of the enor
mous expense of importing the Hepa-
tine into this country; but as there are
fifty doses in the large size bottles, it
seems two cents per dose is cheap
enough after all for a medicine that
cures dyspepsia and liver complaint.
Ail who have not had a sample bottle
j are entitled to one for ten cts. at Dh.
ments on the propriety of approving | C. IV. Long & Co’s, drug store,
that imjiortant measure: Some years j Three doses relieves any case of dys-
pepsia, constipation, indigestion or
liver complaint. Regular size bottles,
fifty doses, $1.00.

sold at the public sale of deceased
persons. I see by the llth Section
of Article seven of this new Constitu
tion that these State notes are repu
diated, and nil responsibility for their
redemption denied; and consequently,
thousands Of widows and orphans in
this State will be left in poverty and
distress if this new Constitution is
approved.
But this is not all the injustice that
i will result from this disgraceful repu
diation. Agents of the State were
sent up to this mountain section of
the State with these State Treasury
notes, and bought for tho State our
bacon and com with them. We have
them yet. Are we now to be told
that no part of these notes will lie
paid. Who by their vole will sanction
such a f raud ?
Let me state one more fact. It
will be recollected that some years
ago a very destructive fire occurred
in Charleston, by which nearly one-
third of the city was burn' 1 1, and a
large number of persons w. e placed
in a suffering condit ; -.u. Tue Legis
lature ot Georgia wr.- i -a in session,
and passed an act . mho: V. ng the
Governor to make u .contribution of
§160,000 for the sufferers by the fire;
and authorized the Govcrro- to issue
"State Treasury notes to make up that
amount if there was not money
enough in tie treasury. lie did so,
and sent the amount to Charleston.
These State notes were taken bv the
grocers for provisions, etc., for the
suffering people. Now, we are told
in this new Constitution that the
State notes issued to make this osien-
tations display of charitable sympathy
for the unfortunate will n<>t be paid.
Can the people of Georgia approve
of this black disgraceful spot on the
honor of Georgia ? The repudiation
of a legal obligation by the State, or
by an individual, is a fr..::d; and
much might be said on its demoraliz
ing influence by either; but I defer
any farther remarks to another time.

Now and Then.—It is only now
and then that such men as Hon. Alex.
H. Stephens, Ex-Gov. Smith and
Ex Gov. Brown of Ga., endorse a,
medicine for the throat and lungs,.atid
when they doit is pietty good evidence
that the remedy must be good for the
cure of cough**, colds and lung affec
tions. Tncv recommend the Globe
Flower Cough Syrup, and their
testimonials are to be seen round the
ten cent sample bottles of the Globo
Flower Syrnp, for sale by
Dr. C. VV. Long a Co.

A sample bottle relieves the worst
cough and will cure sore throat.

floes that, you know.
If I here are ten in your set carry
four knives and three cups.
White g«»ods are the best to wear at
a picaie, being the most populai.
It is not necessary to carry vinegar,
pepper, or butter. They can he bor
rowed from other parties
Be sure to take plenty of cake and
pastry. People at a picnic rarely
have any appetite, and thus need
something of a tempting nature.
In packing a basket it is the best to !
put the eu-tard pie and rico pudding |
at the bottom, with a package of salt j
: next. It matters not so much about j
the location of the other articles.
As soon as you. reach the grounds,
pick nut a desirable companion and
stroll off by yourselves. Some one will
set the table, and do the mccssary
iuggini. There is a providence which
looks after this especially.
What a picnic would be without
hornets is a matter of conjecture, as
there never has been a way to find
out, A hornet is not denominational.
It goes to all picnics. And it is a de
sirable adjunct. It tends to modify
greediness, besides adding largely to
the general enthusiasm. Five hornet^
at a small table will do more to level
social distinction and to promote social
intercourse than an awful disaster in d
village
It is well enough to tell what one
ought to eat, and bow he ought to eat
it, at a picnic. Bat no rule, however
sensible constructed, ever worked
well. There is only one way to eat
and that is as you get it. It is folly
foe a m«n who receives an article to
lay it down to await its proper place
in the course. The projier article and
the proper place fbr its disposal never
reach an individual at the same time.
As it is, he finds that the food march
es into his system in something like
this order; Biscuit, frosted cake,
{ fickle, meat, jelly cake, sandwich, pie,
emonade, pickle, chocolate, cake, sar
dine, pie, cake ginger bread, lemon
pie, pudding, corned beet In retur
ning from a picnic we always ride on
the rear platform of the last car. We
think that it any o!' the party should
get under the wheels and he cut in
