J. L. M. Court, of Rich mond, Va., says: “I would give one thousand dollars if I could read Karl, the Martyr' as Prut Beade does." We might add a hundred testimo nials as good as the above but the best thing to be done is to see and hear this gifted Elocutionist for yourself. Admission 50cts children 25c ts. Well.

Howabd, Ga., Feb. 15th 1881. Editors Herald:—The Valentine party of which I notice you Bpeak in this week's Herald, came off last night. It surpassed the com mittee's most Banguine expectations. There was a good crowd out and all enjoyed it. Cupid’s darts were hurled thick and fast and if we are not mistaken they took ef fect in more than one young man's heart. We are in hopes we will have many suoh parties in the fm ture. Yours eto. Z. own reward. Who knows but a blighter crown bedecks the little sufferer, than if she hud been sud denly removed from all pain. May the bereaved little brothers feel that though sis Lou can never re turn to us we may go to her. May they finally form one uubroken family in that bright world. We believe the stricken parents have adopted the following senti ment : Farewell my darling little Lon, Why shed so many tears for yon? Thy joys are richer far than mine, For pure celestial joys are thine. Thou needest not a innthers’s car Thou needest not u fuller's praye For thy pure soul can lie're be harmed, While in the Saviour's loving arms. Then since it is my Father’s will, (Cease troubled thought, cease; he still) To bid me drink this bitter cup. Cherished one I give thee up. A Fim.KD. Butler, Ga., Fes., 7th 1881. Died.

Such an immense crowd as is seldom witnessed by our people of ladies and gentlemen, gathered at the debot ii Butler on Sunday lust to bid a parting parewell to friends and relatives who were expecting to leave for a distant land. At the arrival of the train so many were present that there was searcely standing room upon the plat form, while upon the ground stood a large numder of anxious friends; to some there was a deep sadneSB of heart, but generally speaking the occasion passed off quite lively and pleasant, with many words of kindness to those so soon to be absent, and hearts fill, of affection. Among those who left for an Eastern portion of Texan, were Mrs. J. W. I.ipsey and two children, and Mr. J. L. Wallace, of Butler; Master Riley, Hammev Riley and Maloom Woodward, of Carsonvmt*.
