Cotton is beginning to hunt a market I £ o’'Farmers and merchants shake hauds cordially. BF* Weather dry and hot, day-time—nights cool and pleasant. V Mr. F. M. Whitmire, of this county, we regret to learn, died of consumption, last Wednesday. Clerk of the Superior Court has ordered a lot of blank executions printed, and he and the Sheriff are 44 thick as two in a bed.” Look out! they mean business I tW Judge Howard says he trusts to luck these hard times. Luck, indeed ! with cold weather a’ starin’ the poor young people in the face, and when they can buy three or four marriage licences with the price of one pair of blankets! Don’t call it luck, Judge, when the game’s all in your own hand. tdPWe overheard a good friend remark the other day that he expected to get fifty dollars shortly. We won’t say who he was, for should he be in the same category with many others of us, he’d have more visitors than he would probably like to entertain. LV’ Mr. J. H. Smith has our thanks for a club of ten subscribers at Pond Fork. On ward and upward is now the watchword of the News ! Ten strike—set up the pins ! clever young friend, A. A. Bell, Esq., of Athens, put in an appearance on our streets Monday afternoon. Though Jefferson perhaps, does not claim him as her own, just now, yet, with pride, she can point to him, and say to all her young men, “go thou and do likewise.” BF’Mr. and Mrs. Dr. Kinnebrew, of Ogle thorpe county, are in town in attendance on their son Mr. R. IT. Kinnebrew, who has been lying quite sick for a week or so past, at the residence of Dr. McCarty. At this time (Thursday afternoon) however, we are grati fied to learn, he is improving. BPIt is currently reported that Dr. J. M. Venable is about to return to Jefferson and resume the practice of his profession again in our town. Dr. Hunt, who we learn, is as sociated with Dr. V. in the practice of medi cine at Jonesboro’, Ga., has been spending a week or so in our midst, “ looking round.” energetic citizen and successful farmer, J. E. Randolph, Esq., is preparing— and has been for some time—for a large crop of small grain next year. He knows “ which side of his bread is buttered.” BF*We “interviewed” Judge M. M. Pitt man a day or two since, when he informed us that he thought his County Court would be organized next week. And then, look out, }e offenders ! “ Sharp and quick,” we believe, is the motto of County Courts. BPMr. I). W. Hi ’tciiens, living three miles east of Jefferson, lost a verj’ interesting little boy, something over two years old, last Sat urday. His disease was liux and fever, and he lived only a week after he was taken sick. Mr. Hutchens and famity have the condolence of many sympathizers in their affliction. BF“Our fellow-countyman and friend of the Forest News, Mr. J. J. Hunter, left for Ath ens last Monday morning, whither he goes to take charge of the books of J. C. Pitner & Cos., Refugee block. John has been “lying low” for some time, but will be “ wide awake” for his friends when they visit the precincts of chicken avenue. forcibly were we reminded of the old maxim, “ by industry we thrive,” on step ping into the premises of Judge Simpkins a few days since, and finding the Judge and his estimable lady, surrounded by several assistants, all busily engaged in “ evaporat ing,” grinding and manipulating Sorghum cane into syrup. The Judge is one of our best “ well-to-do” citizens, and keeps things “ a'movin’ ” round about him. BP’Jefferson has, for the last week or so, been passing through the “ deep waters” of affliction. With the loss of one most estima ble citizen, another lying at death’s door, and a young gentleman—a student—who has endeared himself to our citizens by his many virtues, dangerously sick —the good people of the town have had cause to feel that their “ cup” was indeed running over. Still, amid all, they have borne themselves submissively —seemingly, by their actious, to say, “ Thy will, and not ours be done !” reflection was most vividly brought to mind the other day—how much real good some men do, and how useful they are to so ciety, and still they are the humblest, most unpretending and modest of the human fam ily. Take, for instance, our worthy friend and “ brother,” Billy Winburn ; he fii*s the station of sexton to the Methodist church, is a most excellent and reliable mechanic, fills the place of “ undertaker,” and if the sick are to be visited no one is readier or more willing ; and thus it is—a cheering word in one place—a good deed here—a kind and be nevolent act somewhere else ! Oh, how much the world is indebted to such men, and how little it appreciates their noble traits. Town Election. As we go to press, our Municipal election is quietly progressing, No riots apprehend ed ; military all reposing quietly in their quarters. Town Ordinances of Jefferson. We commence this week, (and hope to con clude next,) the publication of the Ordinances of the town of Jefferson, to which we invite the attention of all concerned and interested. These “ documents*’ published in this way, will receive far greater publicity than if pub lished in pamphlet form, and those desiring to preserve them can do so with very little trouble. Agricultural Statistics of Jackson County. To Mr. Geo. W. Brown, the efficient Re ceiver of Tax Returns, are we indebted for the following statistical table—which will be found quite interesting, not only to our own people, but to those abroad who feel an in terest in the welfare of this part of the “ moral vineyard”: Acres in corn, 22,294 J. “ “ wheat, 7,9905. “ “ oats, 5,580f. 44 “ rye, 66 11-16. “ “ barley, 2s. “ “ peas, 3,0015. “ “ clover, 60f. “ 44 corn, to cut for forage, 17|. “ “ pea vines, to cut for forage, 21. “ 44 cotton, 13,9465. 44 ** tobacco, 18 35-48. “ “ sugar cane, 3s. “ “ sorghum cane, 414 33-40. “ 44 ground peas, 41 13-16. “ “ sweet potatoes, 443 7-12.

The Religious Services at the Methodist Church, Which commenced last Saturday forenoon, under the auspices of Rev. W. A. Farris, Pastor, have been progressing from daj T to day up to the present (Friday morning,) with increasing and unabated interest. The peo ple of Jefferson and vicinity have been the recipients, during the time, of a “ feast of reason” indeed, in the able and convincing manner in which the “ Word” has been pre sented to them by the ministering servants of the Most High. Mr. Farris has been aided in the labors of the meeting by Rev. G. H. Cartledge, of the Presbyterian church, Rev. Mr. Anderson, of the Mulberry Circuit, also from time to time, by several of the local ministers, among whom we may mention Prof. Lee M. Lyle, Capt. J. A. Venable, Wm. Seymour, J. J. Ross, and others perhaps, with whose names we are not familiar. Ser vices have been held three times a day, and it is a pleasure to note that most of the places of business have been closed during meeting hours. Several have joined the church and the “ mourners’ bench” has been filled daily, to overflowing, by those desiring to “ flee the wrath to come !” P. S.—Rain set in about 9$ o’clock, Fri da}’ morning, which may retard the further progress of the meeting. More Fine Syrup. A highly esteemed friend sends us a bottle of most excellent syrup, accompanying which was the following urbane billet doux: Dear Sir :—On the eve of leaving for Gainesville, I send you, in obedience to the wishes of one of the parties, a bottle of sorghum syrup, manufactured by Mr. Taylor Roberts, on Capt. A. C. Thompson’s Evapo rator. The cane was a little too green, but I think you will pronounce it a first-rate ar ticle. Capt. T.’s Evaporator, with Roberts at the helmn, has never failed to make a No. 1 article. Generally it is a little thicker than the sample I send you. Wishing j'ou suc cess, I am. Respectfully, yours, . P. S.—The cane from one quarter of an acre made 42 gallons of syrup. The land on which it grew was extra river bottom. Cane should never be planted on poor land un helped. . On trial, the syrup was found to come fully up to the expectations of our valued friend. All the gentlemen named above are among the “jewels” of Jackson county, and are en deavoring not only to “live at home” them selves, but leave no stone unturned in incul cating their doctrine, in this respect—both by precept and example—in the minds of their fellow-citizens. N. B.—At the hands of Mr. Wm. Hague wood, we have received a 44 second edition” of Syrup from Mr. Taylor Roberts, which was made on the Evaporator of Mr. A. C. Thompson. This is pronounced, by judges, to be a most excellent article—little inferior to honey. With such skillful mauipulation as this it will soon be unnecessary to send abroad for sweetnin ’ of any kind. IdF’Prof. I. S. Hopkins, of Emory College, John W r . Glenn, of Jackson county, and Rev. Josiah Lewis, Jr., of the North Georgia Con ference, have accepted Professorships in the Southern University at Greenesboro’, Ala. We find the above scrap of rather ‘‘bad news” among the items of some of our ex changes. And though the mere fact of being associated with such men as Prof. Hopkins, and more especially our highly esteemed and personal friend, Rev. Josiah Lewis, Jr., is an inducement well worthy the consideration of any one, we still hope Prof, Glenn will re consider the matter, and let his connection with Martin Institute remain intact. EdPßain ! More rain, at last. Editorial Visitor. Capt. H. H. Carlton, Editor of the Ath ens Georgian, honored our sanctum with his presence last Tuesday. The Capt. came to Jefferson in company with Gen. Colquitt, who made a most magnificent address to the farmers, grangers and public generally on that day—notice of which appears elsewhere. We were pleased to hear from Capt. C. that the Georgian —which has undergone anew “ top-dressing” and been otherwise greatly improved—is still on the 44 go ahead,” and at the same time he thinks, from the very flattering encouragement already received, that the Daily Georgian will be successfully launched on the “ sea of public favor” at no distant day. sells the cheapest Oil and Lamps, at Kilgore’s stand, Athens. “Accidents Will Happen in the Best Regu lated Families,” As was demonstrated by an omission made last week in the Presentments of the Grand Jury published in that issue of the Forest News. In the paragraph of the Presentments relative to the “ books” of the several county officers, the words “ Tax Receiver” were ac cidentally omitted, and should have read : We find the books of the Ordinary, Tax Receiver, Clerk, Sheriff, and County Commis sioners kept in a neat and intelligible man ner ; also, the books of Notaries Public and Justices of the Peace of the various Districts. We correct this mistake with a great deal of pleasure on the one hand, and with sincere regret that it is necessary to do so, on the other; because it has only been a few weeks since we were much gratified in looking over Mr. Brown’s book, to find it a model of neat ness and accuracy. Dr. J. D. Long, Who we mentioned last week as lying in a most critical condition, is still alive, and though extremely low, nevertheless, from the fact that he has 44 weathered the storm” up to the present, some faint hopes are now enter tained for his recovery. Truly would he “be missed” were he gone, and that the above noted “ hope” may be realized is, we feel, the fervent and heartfelt prayer of every citizen of Jefferson. We hope to be able to state more concisely his condition before going to press this (Frida} r ) afternoon. Since the above was written, we hear, with profound gratitude, that all the symptoms, at present, are favorable to the Dr.’s recovery. Professor Jordan, After a few days’ absence, is again at his post in his elegant “ Car of Art,” where he is ready, willing and waiting to furnish the belles and beaux, the young and old, the great and small, with pictures of every de scription known in the art of Photography. As stated last week, the Professor gives uni versal satisfaction in the execution of all his work. Don’t fail to call on him if you want a life-like picture! r _ Notice. I am informed by the Louisville Medical College of Kentucky, that the Trustees of said College have created, in perpetuity, one Beneficiary Scholarship, annually, for each Senatorial District of Georgia, and that I am authorized to select ouc poor and de serving young man, who is pecuniarily unable to obtain a medical education, who will be entitled to the beneficiary scholarship awarded by the Trustees of said institution. Appli cants for the above appointment will please address me at Maysville, Ga. G. E. Dead wyler, Senator 33 d District of Georgia. Tax Collector Williamson “Speaks a piece” through the News to-day, in which all the citizens of Jackson county are particularly and pecuniarily interested. The people are taxed unmercifully, but the best way is to cheerfully endure present ills, and try, in the future, to administer proper antidotes in time.

Death has again entered our community, and has stricken down another victim.— Robert Thomas Carititkrs, a member of Stonewall Lodge, No. 214, 1. O. G. TANARUS., is no more. Asa brother, a neighbor and a friend, we mourn his loss; and we deeply sympa* thize with his bereaved widow and daughter, and heartily commend them to the guardian care of that kind and merciful Being who is the God of the widow and the Father of the fatherless. Robert T. Carithers was born in Oglethorpe county. Ga., June 11th, 1823, and died in Jef ferson, Jackson county, Ga., Monday, Sept. 13th, 1875, in the 53d year of his age. He was an upright man, a worthy citizen, a good neighbor, a kind and affectionate husband and father, and died in the faith of the Gospel of Christ, and in an insured hope of a blessed immortality. He leaves a widow and daugh ter to mourn his departure, two infant chil dren having gone before him to the “better country, even a heavenly.” Let us, who sur vive him, give heed to the Divine admonition : “Be ye also ready; for in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of Man cometh.” By order of Stonewall Lodge, No. 214, I O.
