The concourse in town on last sale day (Tuesday) was a “notch” or two ahead of any thing of the kind since the advent of The For est N ews in Jefferson. The day proved a most beautiful one, and at an early hour the noble yeomanry of Jackson came pouring in from the four corners and the centre or the old “ garden spot.” Sheriff H unter, with his staff, was on hand, “ armed and equpped as the law directs,” and at about eleven o’clock or a little thereafter, the usual “ proclamation” was made, and the “ work went bravely on.” A good lot of property had been advertised for sale, and as before remarked, a large crowd was in attendance, and the bidding, in many instances, quite spirited. Below we give a list of property sold, the price paid, and the name of purchaser. Some of the larger sales, we believe, were on a few months’ time; Land belonging to the estate of William Deaton, deceased, 110 acres, bought by S. H. Cronic at $260, and 68 acres bought by Matta Moore at $325. Land belonging to the estate of John Imes, deceased, 130 acres, sold subject to a S3OO lien, bought by Thos. Trout at $5.00. Land belonging to the estate of Wm. Ap pleby, deceased, lot No. 1, 353 acres, bought by J. C. Whitehead at $1,240 ; No. 2, 113| acres, bought by J. M. Potts at $635 ; No. 3, 135 acres, bought by W. J. Colquitt at ssll. The place known as the J. A. Davis place rented to P. J. Roberts at $445. The land belonging to the estate of James Appleby, deceased, 400 acres, bought by J. F. Harrison at $2,006. Five shares of Georgia Railroad stock, be longing to the estate of James Appleby, de ceased, bought by T. R. Holder at s7l per share ; 3 shares to same man at $72 per share ; 5 shares to C. T. Whitehead at s7l per share ; 5 shares to same man at $72 per share. Messrs. Pendergrass & Hancock Have been receiving and opening their Fall stock during the present week. A cursory glance over their house on Thursday,, enables us to say that the stock already on hand, and which is to be added to till every department is complete, will make it quite possible for them to give such bargains as will ren der it unnecessary for customers to go away from home to lay in their Fall and Win ter supplies of staple or other necessary goods. And we have been assured that the advant ages they have had in the purchase of their present stock will enable them to offer extra ordinary inducements to their friends and the public generally. The intelligent reader is too well posted in what is needed to meet the wants of a section and comqiunity like ours, to render any enumeration by us necessary ; we leave that for our enterprising friends to do in their advertisement, which will appear in the next issue of the Forest News. We simply remark, that from our own observa tion, we believe their stock will not be found lacking in the least particular. It was not our intention to particularize, but when we remember that their most excellent and varied stock of ready-made clothing is presided over by our young friend Frank Pendergrass, we feel called upon to say that if urbanity and pleasant dealing is any desideratum in effecting a trade, why, then, all that is neces sary, is to tell Frank what you want, and that’s enough. But to cut a long story short, this store, its model proprietors and its genial clerks, are all too well known to need eulogy at our hands. To satisfy yourself of the real ity of what has been said above, “go and see!” N. 11.—Messrs. P. & H. are agents for the sale of the celebrated “Brumby .Shoe,” man ufactured at Athens. Medical Notice. Dr. J. O. Hunt, partner of I)r. John Ve nable, is here to remain, and announces himself ready for business. Office with Col. J. A. Ik Mahaffey. Dr. 11. will give his card to the public in a few day’s. Persons in want of a good and faithful hand in “ well work” of any kind—cither digging new wells or repairing old ones, are specially recommended to Mr. Daniel Irvin, who has proven himself well worthy the con fidence of the public. Residence eight miles west of Jefferson. Refer to A. A- DeLapper riere, Esq. HPWe were shown, a few days since, at the residence of Mr. Win. Winburn, a most exquisite piece of mechanism, in the shape of a beautiful and unique piefttre frame. It is composed of 180 pieces; these pieces are mortised and fitted together in such a man ner that each one holds its fellow, and thus the whole are linked together, forming, when the ends meet, a neat round or oval frame. It was the work of Mr. I). W. Winburn, of Gainesville, son of our esteemed friend above named. IdF’** It never rains but that it pours,” is a somewhat antiquated expression, of which we were forcibly reminded a few days ago, when fast on the heels of each, we received three more samples of sorghum syrup. Mr. J. 11. Adams’ sample was made in the “ old fashioned boiler,” and we must say, was the best we ever saw or tasted, made under the old process, and equal to most of what we have seen made under the new. Mr. L. J. Johnson placed two samples on our table, made under the new “ Evaporating” process. One of the best judges at our boarding-house (Prof. B. II.) testifies to this last as being the best “of the season,” so far. The fact is, we have received so many most excellent speci mens during the past few weeks that it is next to impossible to discriminate. Our friends certainly deserve the thanks of their fellow-citizens in thus demonstrating the perfection to which this branch of home in dustry can be brought; and the “ end” we believe, “ is not yet.” F. M. Bailey, SOUTH SIDE OF THE PUBLIC SQUARE. Being a next door neighbor to the above named gentleman, we have had ample op portunity of stepping in and taking an ob servation of his well-filled store-room. Mr. Bailey has just returned from market, where, with an eye single to the wants of the people of J efferson and J ackson county, as well as the public at large, he has laid in an assort ment of goods suitable to the Fall and Win ter trade, which will compare in prices and quality with those of any place outside of “trade centres.” Not having his entire stock straightened out yet, Mr. Bailey defers, until next week, an “ authentic proclamation,” but in the meantime his goods are on “ free ex hibition”—he charges nothing for looking, and everybody and their children are invited to come in and see for themselves. Amongst other specialties, Mr. B. informs us he will open in a day or two an invoice of Atlanta made shoes, which he desires to introduce, and to which he calls the attention of buyers and wearers. Mr. Bailey has already won the confidence of this community and of the public as a business man, and it would be as the “sound ing brass” and “tinkling cymbal” for the writer to attempt to add aught to what is al ready so well known. Therefore, call upon him, and we feel assured you will not go away empty-handed. Read the Advertisements. In the “general make up” of a paper the advertisements are frequently changed from one place to another; hence to be certain you see each advertisement, look well over the paper from time to time. We failed last week to call special attention to the adver tisement for “ Contracts” to work on the jail and numerous bridges in the county. Look for this, and in looking for it you will prob ably find something else of importance adver tised. Nothing is lost by reading all the ad vertisements. Professor Jordan, With his “ Art Palace,” has established him self for a short time at Mr. J.* L. Johnson’s, nine miles below Jefferson, on the “ river road” leading to Athens. We hope to have the Professor with us again ere long, and take pleasure in commending him to the most kind considerations of the community in which he has located himself. And while we would give him, cheerfully, the benefit of any “ good word” we could employ, we con tent ourself with remarking that the many truly artistic specimens of his work left be hind, speak far more potently than anything we could say in his behalf. A ‘‘Fruit”-ful Curiosity. Mr. Wyatt Bailey, living some few miles North of Jefferson, presented us the other lay, with three little twigs from an apple tree, one having a bunch of ten apples on it, anoth er eight, and the third one five. There had been ten apples each on two of the bunches, but, accidentally, two had been broken off one, leaving but eight on it. Twenty-five apples on three little twigs is somewhat prolific—or, at least, is so thought around about these “ dig gings.” Look Out I Ye Tax-Payers I Attention is called to the advertisement of Mr. Williamson, Tax Collector of Jackson county. It will lie perceived that the Collec tor is doing all he can to accommodate the tax-payers, by making known where he can be found. At the same time, we are author ized to say he has no discretion in the mat ter ; the taxes, both State and County, must be paid in by the 25th of November, as the books are then to be closed, without fail. Good Corn. Dr. N. W. Carithers left at the News of fice, a few days ago, two ears of corn weigh ing respectively 2| and 2 lbs. 5 oz., shuck on. The ears (shucked) are 12 inches long, and have, on a rough count, about 870 grains on each. Grain large and fully developed. We are not sure, but think the Dr. told us he took no particular pains in gathering, but simply picked them out of a large lot of the “ same sort.” More Incendiarism. Mr. nillsman Jackson, living about 10 miles Southwest of Jefferson, in this county, lost his Gin and Gin-honse, Saw and Grist Mill all being connected, or under the same roof —on Sunday evening last, by fire. The de stroying element, we learn, had made such headway before discovery, that very little of the contents of the building or the machinery attached was saved. Supposed to be the work of an incendiary, as no fire had been used about the premises for some time previ ous. Brought Ini Rev. Alfred Pool, a colored preacher of the Northern Methodist persuasion, who was jail ed some months ago on a charge of “ Beech erism,” and was afterwards bailed out by some of liis colored friends, having forgotten to put in an appearance at Judge Rice’s “pro tracted meeting” a few weeks since, was brought to town the other day by some of his securities and again “ put up” in the hotel “de Hunter .” The Judge, at bis next “ vis itation” to this “ parish,” will, it is confident ly believed, “ raise the salary” of this Rev. imitator of 11. W. B.’s “ true inwardness.” The Southern Cultivator, For October, liee before us, filled with its “ weighty cargo” of good advice to the farmer, planter, horticulturist, poultryman and good housewife. We stated some time ago that we would send the ’Cultivotor and Forest News to one address for $3.10, and we still stick to it.
