Saturday was a beautiful, hrighl day ; and after the cloudy waatlmr, which haa been to toinui'dy of laic, it wna a real treat to ace nur shadow cliaae ua along the abb. walk while we chased plesaura, au *'• >, and ihe many other thing* that go to make up a day of hliruau life. 'I hank God for suin>blne; aye, thank Him. t<u>, lor rlondincM. “Spring would be but *lormy Wd\tli*r, U w ba<i b-.tiling e’ae. but spring " A a we walker! hy some of llte olosed-np atonw on the public square wo wondered why the loan ol Ham ilton—and it ha been a town a long time —should be in such a state ol stagnation, and why it waa so far be hind other town* of its own age in point of population. We could find no reason except that, as a body, the merchant*, lawyers, doctor*, and cil ixena generally have not advertised the town to the world and act forth the advantages it p<>*e*Bc* over near, ly every othor rogion in the State; and hero wo propose, both for our own good and that of the business tren of Hamilton, to put in a few words alwiut advertising! ft a man who deals honestly and uprightly ad vertiaes his business, he is continually •helpcA nlong hy those whom he has diawn to him. A reader of the news paper 1# attrrued hy an advertise ment, and goes ami tries what is re •f'.om mended. If it haa satisfied him, be is pleased, and tells his neighbor of it, who ia likely to go to the same (place and tell hi* neighbor ; and “thus lift?* rills atariod by his advertising flow in upon liitn'-fmin all aides, nnd the cufrm of his business grows stronger and wider nnd more rapid, and ho prospers ami-grows rich.” An advcrliaentcnt may only catch the eye of a single onto who want* what you have to sell. He ViAit* your house of business, ia pleased with your price and perhaps with your manners; buys what ho warns, and,futs in a good word. It ia jnat aa scnsiblu to expect to pass yourself off si a wise man w ith out ever giving expression to sn ides or a thought as to expect to do busi ness without advertising. Times lire hard, it ia true ; but they will alvxvy he hard with-those who make uo ef fort to I* -known, or who‘imagine that they will'bo'firuiiU out if people want their goods or wares. Why many of our people do wot advertise even to the extent of a sign over their doors, and yot -they cfy out about the hard time* and dullness-of trade, when they are to’blame, themselves, lor this same dullness. People mmt eat and dress, and they aro-compelled to buy almost everything they use; let the wise govern themselves ac* oordingly. By tho time we bad finished the foregoing reflections, we had* duelled the law office of Cot.. Jas. M. Maxtor. Entering, we found the Colonel deep in his hooks, lie is a close student, although s mature man, anti is thoroughly aware (4 tlx* fait (hat “ there is no excellence w ithout great labor.” Col. Mobley ia one of he old residents ot Hamilton, and t he leading lawyer of the place; he ia v .’ell and favorably known'through* o at the State as Deputy Grand Mas li r of Masons, and as a public man o. ’ experience ami ability; and as a 2i alous and faithful counsellor we kt ow of none whom we would sooner tr i*t. He practices in all the courts, Ixt lh State ami Federal, and adver bs sin the Joi UNsi., wliioh we are sui o will be to him as “ bread cast ujH n the waters,’’ for our paper re* hes nearly every state iu the Cut on, besides its many readers in the county. After a pleasant chat 1 will the Colonel, whose company wei •4w aya enjoy, we bent ottr course to; t(*e office of our medical frieud audj aev. ser, Da. Titus. S. M ircnux.

The Race for Governor. N’esrly all our exchanges have something to sav about the Guberna torial race, and we think it altogether premrtnre. Many issues present thi-tnsidves fur the consideration of the suffragist* hy which their votes sre to he controlled. In the former condition of affairs, no censure or blame could attach to either press of speaker no matter with how much w armth he advocated the election of his favorite candidate, hut now things sre changed. Let us not fail to lend all onr energies to those principles whieb are essential to the actual life of good government, and then we can attend lo tiroes things, while im portant. are neconflary from every standpoint from w'lrirh we may view them. In advocating the cause of a friend or in trying to override an enemy, we are apt to overrate or deprecate their abilities. The proper course to punrte in to let flic people select thiir candidate, and then lot the press move in one solid |/tialanx to his elcrtien. It is decidedly ill timed to cast nl out ramong so ’many candidates, thus dividing ‘public sen timent, nd thereby opening up a gap where another I'>ulL>cU mty Step in. In writing mi'fbi* subject, a cor respondent in the Cnrtersvllle Advo ette *nys (hat <he peojilo of Georgia ifle'not in'livor df Colquitt, a'td be ide* that the people in NorlltiGeor gia arc a unit for Gen. L. J. GarlrelJ. The sairto writer says that under the admiuiatration of Gov. Smith the people have aulTercJ, and he waul* Gartrell elected. One man is taking a good dcil-of rope, when he proposes lo spiMk'for the peqple of'Georgia, and tho pre sumption is that nearly every section of tho ‘State han <iim own favorite c ndidate, and -our 'North Georgia man will find it out after awhile. This ssn.e correspondent disqualifies Goo.'Cohpiitt for Governor on the ground that he ia a camp mcoting man, and an agricultural speaker. We do not intend to writo up an article in defense of Gen. Colquitt, Imt the must absurd and uncalled for Lira that we have ever heard advocated is that a man's attending the worship of God and making ag ricultural speeches disqualifies him for tho office of Governor. If the North Georgia nsan had tnore-of the. love of God in his own heart, it might appear that lie would exercise more love and charity towards his tellowtnen. That the people of Geor gia have suffered, it is very true, hut that the fault of this suffering is at tho hands of Govoruor Stui'.lt is an other question. For our part, we will abide the selection of Ulie people, will exert ourselves for the election of their candidate, let him be a -iau that attends caiup .meetings, Hard Shall Baptist associations, or one >lUnt makes agxiuuhural speeches. No Mwe Lko Bail.—Mr. Tot ter, the .gull I euian who had the con tract for jmlting -the cage in the Hamilton jail, has completed it, and it has been received by the Commis sioners. We -aro 'informed by the Tvoaauier that utmost the county sev en hundred and twouty five dollar*. It is a splendid yuuce of work, and all who have seen it pronounce it all right. We are pl*d that it has been fixed, as jailing a prisoner in Harris county luvd become a sham. No blame whatever'Conii be attached to ihe officers, yet they 'Lave been cen sured for the esc.-i|>e Of prisoners, when it required'but the least effort on the part of the priacaers to effect an o*cij>e from the insecure j til, Mr. Robinson has made alfsvthful and ef ticieen elflicer, ami lit ha*been the fault of the "building and not rtf the sheriff h-Jt "be prisoners escaped. That thing Ims played out now, and we need look for no more leg bail. Vmtk Tommy Cow ins.—Judge Kimbrough informs us of the "death f this good man.

Stepiikxs.—From the Atlanta Courrier we arc informed that .Mr. Stephens is in a low state of health, and lltat ha can live but a a short time. We ropy from that paper of the 24th inst: From Coi. Clarence Stephens, of Crawfordvllle, we learn that the preß ent condition at Hon. Alexander 11. Stephens eKcites the livliest appre hension* of his friends. Even the “Great Commoner ” himself feels that the state of hi* health is such that he cannot continue with ti* long. Hi* present condition is not brought around hy any special complaint, but is a general breaking down of the w hole system. The same informa tion was given us a lew days ago by a distinguished physician, bn', at the : time, we did not feel justified in ma king the statomentin positive terms, j hut now, that Mr. Stephens himself (fools the preeirioiHness of his condi tion, it is proper tbat his friends and the people of Georgia should know it. SotETIIKRN' Lifk Inburanck Cot vany.—Gens.

'Alter making a full state ment s to the causes that led to forc ing the company into bankruptcy, they addressing the policy holders, conclude their card as follows : You may bc ascared that wo shall leave nothing undone which w e can do to relieve you from the (ffects of this disaster, w hich -was as startling i io us as it was to ymvaml far more • ciUamitous.

'Gray Hoiftss.—During leap year the girl who counts all the gray horses she sees until she gets a hun dred, will be married within a year, to the first young man she shakes hands with after collating the one hundreth horse.
