The Comity Hoard of Health for 1 1ris county has been organised, with Doctors Thomas S. Mitchell and A. I>. Copeland as members and the Or (Hilary a member and ex-oflicio secre tary. The attention of physicians is call ed to the.importance r f making their hports of births and deaihs as the law requires and where there is no physician in at tendance, it becomes the duty id the parents to make the ri port to the County Hoard. This Hoard meets on the first Tues day iu June next, and every two months thereafter. Good Advice. Act Upon it at Once. Messrs. Kennedy & Cos. are daily in receipt of applications from all parts of the country for agencies for their Great Remedy, Seven Seals or Golden Wonder. To our readers our advice is, and should be acted upon at once, Write to them at Pitts burgh, Pa.—send two dollars and fif ty cents for sample dozen of the Great Remedy, and you will know precisely how to go to work. They will send full instructions bow to conduct the business, so very plain that any man of ordinary intelligence can begin work successfully after reading them. Their offer to agents is very liberal, and as the firm is well know as one who perform all their promises the present opportunity for engaging in light and respectable bu siness should be embraced. Poetry and Prose of Spring. The glories of spiing time has ever been a favorite theme among the poets. They glow with lapture when describing how “Spring unlocks the flowers to paint the laughing soil,’’ but forget that “Death rides on every passing bleeze, and lurks in every flower.” Yes, the vernal sea son however bright and benusiful it may seem is fraught will, perils to the human race. In our climate it is the most dangerous to health of ft' y portion of the year. The sud den changes of the weather produce Colds, Coughs, Catarrh, Bronchitis, Rheumatic,i all j Neuralgia, while the poisonous exhalations arising from the earth, induce deadly fevers. At this perilous season (} ie greatest care should be exercised, arid the Seven Seals or Coleen Wonder, that speedy, certain and effectual cure for all ailments brought on I y variable weather, or by inhaling miasmatic vapors, should be kept where it can he brought quickly into icqu-iuot,. Tin* “devils" aro turned loose in (Icon. i.i this week. There was rain in abundance last Sunday, Font Grimes lias gone to the Cen tennial. Hope he won’t get lost. Music ought to be soineuhat sweeter in town —a piano timet has been here. Judge Williams has oats overlive feet high, “and ’iaint a good year ior growing oats neither." Mr. J. T. Johnson lias about com pleted one id the neatest residences, on Broad street, in town. Marshall Robinson has had his force on the streets again, lie in tends putting them in good order. The first of last week w:s' cold enough for lire, and the latter was warm enough for linens. We heard some nice music lust Friday night, but we promised to say nothing about where it was we heard it. They have gone back to the list of things v. hich were hurried in the past and dug up Die old slang “Gimme yer hand on it." If I was a lokle editor, Wouldn’t I have a time; I wouldn’t piint a cursed word For less’eu a dollar a line. I’d get my grub and liker tree, And tickets to the shows; I wouldn’t pay for the buggy bier; And wouldn’t I wear fine close? One would judge from the bills scattered around town that one of our leading physicians had changed his occupation—manufacturer of and dealer in harness, saddles, etc. Capt. Eugene Granberry, the quill driver of tins paper, lias gone to the Press Convention at Savannah. We do not know whether anyone else has noticed if or not, but wc have —the ladies in town carry their cals to church and the gentlemen their dugs. We think it would b ■ better to leave these nuisances at home and carry more qttai let age. Married at the residence of the brides father, Mr. J. S. Irvin, on the evening of 2nd., Mr. J. D.

VVe wish the young and handsome couple much peace and happiness during life, and may the brighest star of plenty and prosperity ever cast its illuminated rays aloi g their pathway. W e have no doubt but that, our readers ail! notice that this column is lik.ng much in its usual witty and interesting items, hut we hope they will excuse us tliis one time, as the editor his goue to join the “big ex cursion,” not to write newspaper articles, but to make big speeches and drink to the success of us who are left at home.

SI YEN STORES CONSUMED ON BROAD STKKKT—OUT OF WATER, Yeslerdny morning about 2 o'clock Captain Moore and officer Roper gave the alarm of fire, as they saw a blaze oonii g out of the roof of the store known as the “Dollar Store,” an 1 occupied by A. Bach. The tire then was under full headway inside the building. It was just at that hour of the night when everybody had retired and were sleeping soundly— so it was someli'ino before the fire men responded to the call. When the fire companies arrived the store of Mr. Bach w as in full bluzj all over. The flames quickly spread to the store ofMessrs. J. J. & \V. K. Wood, grocers, and in a lit tie while these two stores and the one above Bach’s, occupied by Messrs. Wells & Curtis as a shoe store, were consumed. The firemen worked with a dogged deter mination, Iml their offer s were fruit less in the faoc of the devouring ele ment, AN(.THICK ALARM The fire had about died out, and the weary firemen were preparing to leave with their engines, when it was discovered that lie building north ot Wehs Curtis was on fire. This Hie caught from the other, and would have been put out very easily but for tlie fact that the supply of water had been exhausted, and come delay was oecosioned, giving the fire pretty headway. No. 5 exhaused four cisterns, and was engaged on the tif b when the flames were arrested. Captain Hill, superintendent of the Eagle Factory, tftrmd on the water from the facto ry, supplying one steamer, and at one time both of the steamers. About daylight the fire was arrested. ORIGIN OF THE FIRE, No one can definitely account for the tire, as there was no probable reason for a fire to be kindled in the stores at this season of the year. All mho weie present are sati-fied the fire was ihowmk of an incendiary, partieu’a'ly as in a few moments the entire house was in a blaze. There is no one against whom to lodge a suspicion, and yet it is evidcut the building was tired by some party or parties. Mr. Bach, who occupies the store and sleeps iu there, went into the store about half past one, aud in half hour the store was iu finues. Mr. Bach and his cb rk escaped in their undvfrdrtiss io ashed, anti from there climbed down a plank placed against i:. A one-legged man who was near the locality, says he heard some par ties at that place a lew jiigliu igo talking. He only heard the words, “ Finnic —keroseuoc—fire—insurance —and tlie balance lie says was spoken In German. The insurance agents have some suspicions, but they are very reticent on the subject, though they say they will fathom the matter. — Columbus Times. From our Special Correspondent.] FROM EAST TENNESSEE. Spring Rale Stock Farm. Ed. Journal: This excellent farm is located in Monroe county, East Tennessee, and is the properly of Col. Jno. B. Gorman, of Talbot coun ty, Ga., and Mr. J. S. Thomason, of this State. It is most admirably adapted to the purpose for which it is now used. The location cannot be surpassed; the supply of good running water is more than sufficient for all demands that may bo made upon it; large springs burst from the baio of every bill. The land is gently rolling and very productive, abounding in extensive meadows —a sine qua non to a stock farm. The cat tle at e of the celebrated shorthorn breed.and have been inipor ted at, great cost. Roan is rpagnifieent specimen, and is an exact copy of a specimen seen in a late number of of the Agriculturalist. The flock of sheep and lambs number about sev enty ; some of them are of the South down and Cots wold varieties, and are very line, will this season shear from six to twelve pounds of wool each—worth about forty cents per pound. The Berkshire hogs attracted a good deal of attention. I will not say how much the pigs—six weeks old—will weigh, for I know your cot ton men could’nt “see it,” A pair has been shipped to Cataula, and will speak for themselves, and every reader of the Journal, espe cially those that, hnve fine stock, should go to see them and “do like wise.’’ These hogs are easily kept can he fattened at any age, and are especially adapted to the wants of the South. Col. Gorman intends to make this farm a success; he will haye nothing but the first breeds. The prices he pays for some of his stock would surprise your “cheap men; and in addition to all this, the Colonel himselt is a thorough bred gentleman, every word he utters cau be relied upon as the truth. More than this can be said of no one ; less would not give a true canception of the man. His associate, Mr. J. S. Thomason, is too well known to your leaders to need any commendations from your Correspondent. IIARRiS SHERIFF'S SALE.
