They reeomended that the C'leik of the County Com missioners be paid S2OO, and wc made them say S3OO. We do not* see bow the mistake occurred, as we had the original article, and read the proof by copy. In Texas —Rev. Rufus Figh, pas tor of the West Point Baptist church, is now on a visit to his brother and children in Bryan Texas, The Ap peal notices his arrival in very com plirnentary terms, and says Mr. Figh stands deservedly high with his con gregation at home, both as a minister and an accomplished gentleman. In addition to being an educated man be has bad rare opportunities of travel in Europe and in the Holy Lund. Something about the Court There were ten jurors dnwn from Catnula, of which number, five were on the grand jury. Four of the grand jurors were in Company K. 35th Ga. Regiment, and were in the same “gomb’’ during the war. A vrey interesting feature in the court was the great interest one of the Ca *aula bachelors, also a juryman, man ifested in a case in which was argued the “rights of woman” and the “priv ileges of man”. The verdict can be easily imagined, as this bachelor ranks as Major General in that line, was foreman of the jury. Death.- —We regret to chronicle the death of Mrs. R. A. Holland, nee Miss Sallie Roberts, which occurred last Wednesday evening. Mrs. 11. was sick but a lew hours, having been taken only the evening before. She was buried at the family bury ing ground on Thursday. Mrs. Hol land was a highly respected and af fectionate lady, and her loss w ill be seriously felt in a large circle of triends and acquaintances. Our young friend Inis our sincere sym pathy in the loss if his wife, and we trust that he may, one day, meet her in that Celestial Cify above, where “Friends pait to inuet. An J meet to part no in i. , Tlii. is !np year—woman pro] ones mill mail gita up ami gits, \V e know some* young ladies who art* jrroud ot*their limited uudurslnud ings, i. e. small feet. As ill be seen in am tber column, the Macon Presbytery will hold its next regular meeting in Hamilton. There is a fellow who comes to town, onoe in a while, who is part tish—at ieusf, his head swims. The Hamihcuians should get up a “button party,’’ as il is said they are sure to come off. The time for revival feelings will c ; soon he here, aud we hope it will get down deep enough to affect arrear ages on country newspapers. An old proverb says, “ Laugh and grow fat”. Harris county farmers ought to get pigs that could laugh. Wouldn’t it save corn, though ? And now cometh Robert to the front and denies that she told him to “hush up”. Now, Bob, don’t do that; own up like a mail! The Ciceronians decided that manufactories should he taxed, and now we may look for a rise in cot ton goods. Don’t forget it—during leap year every woman has an inalienable right to make love and the fire in the morning. Pome of “the hove” will attend the picnic at Union Springs, Ala., provided 'h.y can persuade some of the “charmers’’ of La Grange to go with them. A breed of dogs without tails has been discovered in Africa, and bow the mischievous hoys there utilize old tin kettles and fruit cans, we cannot pretend to say. Now is the time for giving in your tax. The Receiver is ready to take it, and you will save a double tax by attending to it at once. We are not paid to make this notice. Judge Crawford, when solicited by an attorney for mercy to a prison er on account of Ids poverty, said “tlp poor ve have with von always.” That's a fact, hut it isn’t really neces sary to be always poor. Hamiltonian" seem to have a mania for fishing. Every dav squads can be seen winding tlivir way to the branch with fishing tackle. They meet with but little success; but then fun is fun, you know. That. B’up Spring picnic, which takes place next Saturday, has caused convalescence to set. in, and our voting merchants are fast recovering from the -bock occasioned by the de parture of the adorable, An exchange announces the illness of its editor, and piously remarks: "all good paying subscribers are re quested to mention bim in their pray ers. The others need not, ns the prayers of the wicked availeth noth ing.’’ Whv should the beehive be taken ns a symbol of industry ? Not a bee is to be seen all the Winter long, while the cockroach is up at. five o’clock in the morning, and never goes to bed till midnight. Let’s change this thing. O O* The question for the next debate is “ Should the old stockholders of the K. & S. R. 11. buy the road un der the provisions of the hill”. If they decide in the affirmative, look out for the engine when the whistle blows. Our friend who made his trip to the quarterly meeting must excuse us. We can’t publish an article with the expectation of finding out the writer afterwards. If you are not afraid to let ns know who yon are, why not send your name? Your “dodge” was rather sharp, but most “too thin” for present purposes. Messrs. E. & H. T. Anthony has sent us another lot of those beautiful ebromos. They are as nice pictures as anyone need to want, and by send ing them your orders, they will guarantee satisfaction. Call at the Journal < ffice and see a specimen of their wor . Theyonng men around town have sent out invitations to several to at tend the picnic at Blue Spring next Saturday. They request us to say that all are invited to go out on the occasion and carry “baskets” with them. Blue Spiing is a delightful place to pic nio, and it is hoped that this will be largely attended. C'.ilquitt aud His Gurnee,s. Since the retirement of Governor Smith from the gubernatorial race, there seems to be a lull in the cm vas for the position. It is, generally, conceded that Cohpiiu’s clianceH are now brighter than ever, an 1 particu ] I.irly so in the miil.Uo and southern pun ions of this State. Unless am in | from the northern part ofthu Slati is j nominated, North Georgia is decid ;ly in favor of Colquitt. Some of his i opponents are endeavoring to use the ! failure of the Life Insurance Com pa i ny against him, but that is all bosh, and wil fall to the ground. Wo will not lo surprised to see the whole army of candidat'S arrayed against Colquitt, and think that the race is between himself and Colquitt, just as it was with Governor Smi li befi re Ins withdrawal. Wc believe that Colquitt, since Governor Smith lias come out of the race, is the most popular, at present, in this section. We have no choice in the matter, save the selection of the people, and when that is made, we shall give our vote and influence to secure the elec- j lion of the man nominated. There are good men in field, and all worthy j of the position, but we are inclined to : the idea that the man who is to he j the next Governor of Georgia is not in the field yet, and will come in on the home stretch and win the race. Hon. John W. Murphey Before brother Styles, of the Al bany News, became well acanainted withCapt. West Murphey, of the Slate Capitol, he was rather inclined to on him. Recently onr brother became better acquainted with the Captain and now 'thinks him one of the greatest men in the State. J/oral: Know a man before you judye him. — /Standard. Whatever may be said to the con trary, there is not a more social, clev er, hightoned gentleman in the State than Capt. Murphey, and we are glad that brother Styles has found it out. A better acquaintance would cause some of the other breihen, who have been inclined to the opinion of Col. Styles, to change their minds and attribute the honor to him which be richly deserves. Farms in Harris. W. E. Munifoid, E.-q., editor of the Talbot ton inland ml lias been on a visit to Huiitikon, and pays quite a compliment to the formers of Harr s county. Particularly, is this encour aging when it is remembered that lie came through the section in which both the destructive tornadoes pass : ed. Here is w hat he says: “From Talbotton to Hamilton it js twenty-two and a half miles, and Hamilton is said to he this distance from every town and city around it. We started early Thursday mop ing. The whole route is over the red hills of this part of the Stale. For the gratification of all, wc may say that the pictures of farm life that were seen along this road presented any thing else but dilapidation and ruin. From Talbotton to Hamilton every farm is in fine trim and order for the coming crop. This is stated without a single exception. Oil every farm, especially in Harris county, there is evidence that the people are up and at it. The fences ate all in fine order, their corners are clean; the houses, mostly, arc painted a beautiful white; the barns and out houses arc in thorough ropair, the manure pi es are large and frequent, the stock are fat and sleek, the yards are cleanly and the cows and calves are able to stand alone. Ail this would seem to indi cate there is no need of hard times so fur as these people are concerned. And we must not forget to say that there is an abundance of small grain planted. We passed some of the I largest and finest fields of it we have ever seen. A gentleman near Ham ilton has a field of wheat and oats | that excels anything we ever saw in this fine. The field contains about j forty acres.” 41 w&mi In order fo intmHm r t nr Literary, and I V.mily I'.nnily. tin; THK SOU VENIR, we will wind it. < n trial, mx month* for only GO GOHtS, arid to each subscriber v\c will mail, |x*t-pid, four ele- KHiifc Oil Chiiomo<: “Little Red Riding Hood, ’‘The Children’* Swing," “IVep-a- Roo," and “Mother’* Joy."

Journal —Agreeable to my promise, in my last communication, I nil now tell you something about Dr. Folsom’s eye infiimary, which i situated about two and a half miles from the mu y of Dalton. The loca tion was chosen, lirst, on account o the hcnlihfulnrss of the phoe, good water; and, secondly, because his patients are entirely r. moved from the dust and glare incident to tow ns. It is certainly one of the prettiest locations in North Giorgiu, mid sur rounded as it with good land, plenty of running w ater, fine orchards ol fruit, a tine vineyard and a beautiful fi-hpond, makes it one of the most desirable residences I ever saw. The Doctor has a very large, commodious house, and every convenience for mak ing his patients comfortable and pleas ant. Ho only i t quires the worst cases to hoard w itli him 4 nnd is now treating, at their houses, a large number ot patients, whose eyes have not been chronically affected. His success in the treatment 1 of all infliiinatiotis has been truly wonderful, not having faded to cure in a single instance when under his immediate supervis ion. A Air. Gilbert, from Tennesson is now under his treatment, and ten days ago when ho came, could not soo his way, having had grann’ar lids for live years, and had nearly become hopelessly blind. Now he can see to read largo pr int, and in a low weeks will be entirely well. I was astonished when I inquired into his mode of treatment, at the very low pricbcharged for curing the most difficult coses. It is certainly ill the power of every one who has diseased eyes to have them treated by going to bis infirmary. The Superior Court has been in session two weeks, and Judge Mc- Cutehen lias dispatched a large amount of business. The Dalton jail was tilled with prisoners of the ‘'col ored persuasion,’’ and most of them "went up” from one to ten years, to Joe Brown’s coal mine. Tli 3 city voted whiskey shops out last fill, and as a consequence, not so many true bills were found at this term of the court as usual. Times are hard, or ai “ Peggotty” would say, a little near, yet creditors are indulgent, and all aro getting along in conduit. In my next 'tionlrmiuicaioii wil. tell you .something about a grand fishpond, with some incidents that are hard to believe, yet nevertheless are true. Will also speak of the c lieges and educational advantages offered here. For the present adieu.
