Wednesday evening, the young
ladies and gentlemen were invited
to tho residence of Judge Rountree
to spend a few hours to social con¬
verse and to amuse themselves
. generally. The evening was un
propitious and many were debarred
jjtje pleasure of going out; but,
those who attended say they nevev
enjoyed any occasion more. They
all speak of the kind hearted and
hospitable host and hostess, who
did all in their power to make the
young people enjoy themselves.—
We are. glad to see the young mon

we must say that wo are surprised,
When we think how many charm¬

Freight A gain.— Our people no
doubt reccollect seeing a large
number of buggies going through
Fort Valley some weeks, ago. We
learn that a house in Dawson piur
chased them in Cincinnati and had
them shipped to Macon, the freight
to that point being sixty dollars,
but here they stoppied as the
Southwestern road charged one
hundred and twenty dollars to car¬
ry tho buggies to Dawson. The
purchaser of the buggies then made
a contract with a stable man of Ma¬
con to deliver the buggies at Daw¬
son for sixty dollars.
To the Voters cf Houston Co
Irrespective of past political dif¬
ferences we would respectfully rec
commend the following named gen¬
tlemen as suitable candidates to
represent Houston Co. in our next
Legislature viz: Maj. J. M. Culpep
er,.T. Blewster and Wesley Hous
er. These gentleman are not law¬
yers and would not take up the
time of the assembly by - long win¬
ded and chaffy speeches, but would
voto square every time. These
gentlemen are all solid farmers and
if elected will protect the interests
of agriculturalist.

W. A, Juhan & Co-> Macon
Happening in at this justly pop¬
ular and first-class retail Dry Goods
house the other day ne were kind¬
ly shown through by one of the
clever proprietors, Mr. Ellis. They
have recently added to their al¬
ready numerous departments, one
of Millinery Goods, and keep in
constant employment about a d z
en ladies, who trim hats, bouct >
and other Millinery articles - fro j of
charges for their customers. This
of course will greatly enlarge their
trade in time as the customer
only pays for the materials, and it
is a groat saving. They will be
glad to have our people call in and
look at their stock when they are
in Macon. This department is, of
course, only of minor importance,
as their trade embraces every ar¬
ticle in the Dry Goods and notion
lifae. Anything from a calico dress
to the finest silk and satin, laces,
domestics, carpets &c., or in fact
any article usually kept in a large
first-class retail dry goods house.
Messrs. Juhan & Co., have enlarged
their establishment, from time to
time as their trade demanded until
now they occupy four largo stores,
all connected in one, which requires
20 employees to look after. The
gentleman salesmen are the most
efficient, polite and accommodating,
to ho found, and a visit to the
store is a real pleasure.

Baptist church last Tuesday night.
Murder in Crwfoiw. — On last
Sunday two negro men, Golden
Berry and George ltadford had
been gambling, and Berry had won
Radford’s clothing, shoes &c,, this
enraged Radford, who came in on
. Berry that night and brained him
with a liglit-wood knot, killing him.
Radford then made his cscapo and
had net been caught at last ac
counts. This occurred on Mr.
Freemaiis place.
Good Ca rs and good Times Com¬
ing:— We are very glad to hear
favorable reports from our farmers
of their Crops for this season.-—
The lands through this section are
well adopted to farming purposes
and with industrions men to work
them will always reward them for
their labor. We rejoice at the
success of the farmer; because, on
his exertions depend, mainly, the
successof all other branches of
business.

Nothing has yet been of the
training ship Atlanta, which left
England for Bermuda over three
months ago. She has been duo at
Portsmouth since the 20th of
March, and, although many reasons
have been given why she may still
be afloat, the general belief is that
she is lost, and that her loss will
ever remain a mystery of the sea.—
She was a sixty-four gun ship, and
was regarded as one of the staunch¬
est and safest vessels of the British
navy. She had on board 311 per¬
sons. and it is more than probable
that all of them have found a wa¬
tery grave. Science and skill have
of late years, greatly lessened the
dangers of tho sea, but to provide
against disasters such as that which
appears to have overtaken the At
alanta is as yet beyond human pow
re.

In regard to the Rrilroad Com¬
missioners’' rates, the Brunswich
Advertiser remarks: the preopile
seems to have turned out for injury.
Under the working of the above
Commission hardships are brought
about that cripple our industries
—at least so far as tho Macon and
Brunswick Railroad is concerned.
Mr. Beck informs us that under
tho new tariff he can’t ship vegala
bles to Aalanta any longer, as his
rates have been tripple or therea¬
bouts. We hear also of complaints
by lumbermen along the road. We
hope there will be some way to re¬
lieve this difficulty, so that our
industries will not be hampered, or
crushed,”
When a communication was re¬
ceived by the House Commitfco on
Foreign Affairs, from
Evarts last Friday, asking for an
appropriation of $50,000 to enter ¬
tain the King of Siam, and the
use of a ship of war to bring the
King to onr shores, one of the
members exclaimed: “It is just as
I expected. Grant has been enter¬
tained over there, and has invited
everybody to return his visit ex¬
pecting tho goverment to pay the
expenses, and this is tho first of
the raft-” From the present out¬
look that member was right.
The Louisvide and Nashvillo
Railroad Company took control on
Saturday of the New Orleans and
Mobile Rrilroad, which adds anoth¬
er Southern route to those operated
by tins esmpany.

There is a difference of opinion
as to what is to be done in regard
to the Hayes veto of tho deficiency
bill. Senator Bayard has prepared
the rider to which Mr. Hayes ob¬
jected as a separate bill, but it is
the-opinion of the majority of the
Democrats that such a course should
not be pursued. What counsels
will prevail remains to be seen.
His Elemsnts of Strength
The gront opposition to Mr.. Til
den is shown in the fact that not
a single convention has instructed
for him. The democrats thus far
have acted wisely in this matter.
Every convention but that of Penn¬
sylvania has recommended tho re¬
tention of the two"thirds rule, so
that any condidato not acceptable
to the certain democratic states
cannot bo nominated.
In the riieantime Judge Field is
gaining accessions among the news¬
paper fraternity and without any
effort on his part or that of his
friends to win such expressions of
favor. One thing is deserving of
notice, and that is not a word from
democrats in tho -north or west
has come against Judge Field's de
fence of the sovereignty and right
of the people—no suggestion that
this defence of our people is a
source of weakness.
The Detent Evening News, ’ an in
. ..
largest drcSn olany
Michigan says:
The elements of Judgs Field's
,t„,v»th lie .»tin and can
be recognized by the nea.iest tyro
*
politics. ,
in
1. He is a gentleman of pure
life: ... respectable , ,, antecedents, . . , good
connections; a just and honorable
judge; . stateman , , of . great ability , ....
a
and prudence, and a perfectly safe
and - conservative ,. Citizen. ...
He”has been a consistent demo¬
crat, but a perfectly loyal patriot
through the difficulties of the war,
and did mora than any other citi¬
zen of the Pacific coast to crush in
its incipiency Pie movement inaug¬
urated in the first year of the
war to setup a separtegovarnment
west of the Rocky Mountains^ Ft
was his service in this respect, as
well as his profound attainment as
a lawyer, that induced President
Lincoln to call him to the supreme
bench, to which he has ever since
been an ornament and an honor.
3. He is not offensive to Mr.
Tilden’s friends nor to Mr. Tilden’s
enemies; nor, indeed, to any of the
factions interested. He has been
outside the range of active polities
so long that he has escaped the an -
tagonism of recent years.
4. lie will bo stronger in New
York, by means of his powerful
family, who live there, than any
other democratic candidate not a
New Yorker; while by carrying
California and Oregan he will be in
better shape to dispense with New
York than any other.
5. He would commend himself
to every element of the republican
party which fears Grant.
6. His family is very wealthy,
and would supply the sinews of
war for the camyaign.
On the whole, the democrats of
Michigan, who are now, as we
showed the other d ay by a canvass
of the state, all at sea, could not do
better than to put themselves in
line to support him at Cincinnati.

Literary Revolution -AND
Universal Knowledge.
An Encyclopedia in 20 vols., over 10,000 pages : 10 per cent more mat'
ter than any Encyclopedia ever before published in this country, and
sold, handsomely and well bound, in cloth for §10, in half morocco for
§15, and printed on fine heavy paper, wide margins, bound in half Russia,,
gilt topi, for §20—an enterprise so extraordinary that its success, beyond!
all precedent in book publishing, may be fairly claimed to inaugurate a
Literary. Revolution.
The Library of Universal Knowledge is a reprint entire of the last
(1879) Edingburg edition of "‘Chamber’s Encyclopaedia," with about 40
per eent. of new matter added, upon the topics of special interest to Amer¬
ican readtrs, thus making it equal in character to any similar work, better
than any other suited to the wants of the great majority of those who con¬
sult works of i cjgronce, and altogether the latest Encyclopaedia in the field.
Specimen Volumes in either stile will be sent for examination with
priviledge of returning on receipt of proportionate price per volume.
Special Discount, - to all early subscribers, and extra discounts to clubs.
Full particulars with descriptive catalogue of many other standard works,
equally low in ptice, sent free.
Leading principles of the American Book Exchange :
I. Publish only books of real value.
II. Work upon the basis of present cost of making books, about one
half what it was a few years ago.
III. Sell to buyers direct, and save them the 50 to Cl) per cent, com¬
mission commonly allowed to dealers.
IV. The cost of the books when made 10,000 at a time is bat a fraction
of the cost when made 500 a' a time—adopt the low price and sell tho
large quantity.
V. Use good type, paper, etc., do carefullly printing, and strong, neat
binding, buPavoid all “padding,” fat and heavily-leaded typo, spongy [wi¬
per and gaudy binding,, which arc so commonly lesorted to make books ap
pear large and fine, and which greatly add to their cost, but do not add
to their value.
