Dry Pond. Passing in close proximity to Dry Pond not long since, the writer was forcibly struck with the neat and pleasant appearance of the church edifice of the M. E. Church, South, at that point. A place better adapted for the purpose, could not, it seems to ns, have been found ; and everything gives evidence that the influence shed abroad through the instru mentality of this Sanctuary of the Most High is felt and acknowledged in all the “re gions round about.” In the vicinity of the church the community are settled so closely together that, at a distance, one thinks he is approaching a little village. And then, the good people, we are informed, are most unex ceptionable and exemplary as neighbors and friends ; are industrious, peaceable and hard working ; and are, furthermore, as we have abundant reason to know, a reading people— because the Forest News has a good circu lation amongst them. We are under obliga tions for an invitation to a better acquaint ance with the kind people of this neighbor hood, and shall, most certainly, endeavor to avail ourself of the opportunity at as early a day as practicable. The Young Folks’ Gem. Number one, vol. 4, of this little monthly is before us. It is iutended principally for children, as its title at once indicates. In this day time, every inducement, consis tent with good morals, should be offered the young to seek knowledge and information. To this end, we can, in our humble sphere, we believe, offer nothing better than the lit tle paper (or something similar) which now lies on our table. No objectionable feature ; a beautiful picture to each subscriber, and all at the low price of 30 cts. per annum. Let some of our little friends make up a club and get a handsome premium. Address, John A. Clarke, Publisher, Wadsworth, Medina county, Ohio. Stonewall Lodge, No. 214, I. 0. G. T. On Saturday evening, 20th inst., the follow ing officers of the above lodge were installed for the ensuing term : T. S. Johnson, W.C.T.; Miss Annie John son, W. V. T. : Miss Eula Gober, W. R. S.: J. P. Williamson, Jr., W. F. S.; W. V. Lind sey, W. T ; Rev. G. 11. Cartledge, W. C.; Marcus Pittman. W. M.; T. D. Cartledge. W. O. G. ; Miss Georgia Weir. 1). M. ; Miss Alice Weir, W. I. G.; Miss lvittie Gober, R. H. S.; Miss Sallie Cartledge, L. 11. S. A Word from Tax Collector Williamson. We have been requested byJ.L. William son, Esq., to say to those who have as yet failed to pay their taxes that he will at once proceed to make out executions against all lelinqnents ; these executions will not, how ever, be placed in the hands of the officers until the entire defaulting list has been goue over. Therefore, all those paying before the executions are placed in the officers hands will save cost. Remember this. house of Louden Hayden, (col.) on the plantation of the widow Morgan, some four miles northeast of Jefferson, was de stroyed by fire on the night of the 22d inst., together with everything he had, except the clothes worn by himself and family—who were absent from home at the time. From all the surrouuding circumstances, the hand of an incendiary was the prime mover in this sad catastrophe. PF’We omitted, last week, to state who the parties were so quickly 7 united in the bonds of matrimony in the office of the Ordi nary. Asa number of persons have made inquiry who they were, we now gratify the i curiosity of the curious by stating that the happy groom was Mr. Joseph Ansley, for ! merly of Towns county, and the blushing bride was Miss Marietta Waddell, of Jackson county. LiPlt is said that an honest tax-payer the other day, having paid out the last cent in his pocket-book in liquidation of his obliga tion to “ the powers that be,” stretched wide his depleted purse and exclaimed, “I want to find my country's altar, that I may also place this as a sacrifice upon it.” A rare ex hibition of honest patriotism this, and yet what a sad commentary on the hardness of the times and the burdensomeness of taxa t on. IIP The services in the Baptist church on Sun lay last were quite interesting indeed— both day and night: Rev. A. J. Kelley, on each occasion, making more than an ordina ry impression on the minds of his hearers. At night, at the close of Mr. Kelley’s ser mon, Rev. G. H. Cartledge (Presbyterian,) delivered one of those pointed, plain and for cible exhortations so characteristic of the man ; elucidating at once his fervency and zeal in the service of his Master, and his de sire to do good to aud for all his fellow-men. EjPJ. R. Duke, (col.) of Clarkesboro' dist., brought to this office a few days ago, a sam ple of his turnip crop which speaks well for all the surroundings. First, they show that this worthy and industrious freedmau has a level head in planting and cultivating this crop—so valuable as an article of food for man and beast. Second, the turnips shown us demonstrate what can be done on Jackson county land, without any manure, either home-made or bought—the samples measur ing 16£ inches round. And lastlyY the grow er shows his good sense in letting other folks (especially his colored brethren) see what they I can do if they will only try. How Long! Oh, How Long I With exchanges of no later dates than Tuesday last—and the greater portion even father back than that—it is hard to get up much in the way of late news that would be interesting—hence the frequent barrenness of our paper in this respect. And now friends, fellow-citizens, don't wait one for an other, but set the ball in motion, and let’s have two or three new mail routes and better mail facilities generally, and then we can safely promise the public a newspaf>rihat is a newspaper. Christmas is Coming I And though times are hard and money scarce, yet, the little ones, the lads and lasses, bachelors and old maids, mammas and pa pas, and grandmother and grandfather will all, no doubt, “strain a point,” something “for Christmas.” From our advertising col umns it will be seen that friend Cohen —the irrepressible Cohen, of Gainesville—is ready, waiting and anxious to supply the wants of the masses in this particular ; and that too— mark what he says —Lower than can be done by any live man in all this section of country. Mr. Coiien has recently been in our town and left several samples of his goods at Mrs. Randolph’s hotel. Call and examine them, and order your goods before the stock is all sold ! Hymeneal. Married, on Sunday, Nov. 21st. at the resi dence of J. S. Hunter, Esq., by Rev. G. H. Cartledge, Mr. Calvin T. Story and Miss Martha J. Maxwell, all of Jackson County, Ga. Married, on Sunday, Nov. 21st, at the res idence of the officiating minister, by Rev. A. J. Kelley, Mr. T. A. Rogers and Miss Ellen J. Pittman, all of Jackson Cos. Married, in Jefferson, Ga., at the residence of the bride, by Rev. G. 11. Cartledge, Nov. 25th, 1875, Mr. Marcus C. Few and Mrs. Mar tha Ann loungkin, all of Jackson County, Ga. In connection we remark, that licenses have been issued recently to the following parties, who it is presumed, have, ere this, driven away 7 the “winter of their discontent” and are now enjoying the balmy sweets of connubial blissfulness :—J. N. Smith and Miss A. A. Yeargin ; J. O. Harris and Miss L. J. Burch; M. A. Patman and Mrs. M. Stewart. The Gainesville Eagle. Our sanctum sanctorum was honored by the presence therein, on Thursday morning last, of Mr. Claud Estes, the courteous and affable Gen’l Agent of the Gainesville Eagle. Mr. Estes is “ peregrenating round” in the interest of the Eagle , and, we are gratified to learn, is coming up to his expectations in collecting “back rations.” Success to the Eagle and its urbane and gentlemanly agent —the son of as “noble a sire” as the up country affords. Writing Class at Deadwyler’s Mill. A. Louis Barge, Esq., we are pleased to learn, has a promising writing class of some twenty-five scholars, at the above mentioned place. And in connection, we take pleasure in announcing that Col. Barge will lecture on the subject of Penmanship, at Concord church, Hall co., on the night of the 29th—next Monday. David Dickson, of Hancock County, on Plant ing Cotton. You ask me what it costs me to make cot ton. At one time I could have toll you its cost per pound ; but what it costs to make it now depends on so many contingencies it cannot be estimated beforehand. I have six ty or seventy tenants, and it costs no two the same to make cotton. It depends on the price of labor and its efficiency; direction of the sun and rain, time and quantity, worms, caterpillars, storms, frosts, and land as well as many other things. Crops vary from one bale to eight bales per hand. There is one thing certain, when cotton is below 16 cents the tenant and landlord, in four cases out of five, lose money\ For example, two hands on an average in Georgia, without manure, will make about 3 bales each, making 6 bales ; planting 12 acres each in cotton, making 24 acres ; 6 acres each in corn, making 12 acres ; that is, per each mule, 36 acres. You may say this is low average, but it is high enough as Georgia now is. Six bales cotton, 2,400 lbs., at 16 cents... $384 00 Six bushels corn per acre, on 12 acres, at $1 per bushel 72 00 Fodder 7 20 463 20 Less rent of land 115 80 8347 40 One mule and feed 8175 00 Tools, machinery and harness 20 00 Hire of two hands 240 00 Use of house, board and w00d.... 120 00 8555 00 Loss 8207 60 You may sav my estimate is too low.— Then add to the product per cent., mak ing $463 20, still a loss of s9l 80. Add on 50 per cent., making four and one-half bales per hand and nine busnels of corn, and amounting to $521 10. still a loss of $33 90. Who will say a hand will make four and a half bales of cotton without manure, and fif ty-four bushels of corn, which is in the last estimate ? I can see very plainly 7 what causes so much loss and hard times. The planter furnishes everything—houses, gardens, patch es, and the be9t wood on his place., free of charge. The true plan is to pay for all y 7 ou get, and get pay for all you let go. The planter furnishes house, wood, fruit, garden and patches, for three persons, to get poor labor out of one—out of proper time, poor in quality 7 , etc. The late cold term was very impartial. It did not entirely slight any part of the country. At Little Rock the ice was a quarter of an inch thick on Wednesday morn ing ; at Memphis the novel sight was witnessed of roses and flowers in full bloom jn the yards, and thick ice in the gutters and the ground frozen; at Fort Laramie the mercury fell to fourteen degrees below zero. No Black Hills for us. Rochester, N. Y.. November 17.—John Clark was hanged here to-day 7 . He ascended the scaffold smoking a cigar. According to the Charlotte Observer the breach between the receivers of the Air-Line railroad, Messrs. Fisher and Buford, was not closed, but on the contrary 7 , says the Observ cr, “it has grown so great as to necessitate a division of the road at theTugalo river, which i9 the Georgia and South Carolina line. Ac cordingly, engines on this end of the road run onty to Central, 133 miles from here where the trains are met by transfer engines which take them and earn 7 them on to At lanta. Turn tables have been built on both sides of the river. The road is being run as two entirely separate divisions, just, for in stance, as the Air-Line and Richmond and Danville roads are being conducted. Buford keeps his accounts at Charlotte on this end. and Fisher his Atlanta on the other. Conductors run all the length of the road, however, and Colonel Peck remains master of transportation of the whole line.” a pin here—some of yon water power men:— According to the Reporter, the Quitman factors 7 is making a clear profit of about thir teen hundred dollars a month, or about forty per cent, per annum on the cost of the mill as it stands to the present company, $46,000. The factory employs thirty-three operatives, who are mostly women and children. Manufacturers of Fertilizers. Baltimore, November 19.—A meeting of manufacturers of fertilizers adopted the fol lowing resolution: That fertilizers should be sold for cash or satisfactorily endorsed paper, and, that barter for cotton and other products, should be abandoned. A commit tee was appointed to report to the meeting on the Ist Tuesday in May. The printing of the war records is a work of great magnitude. A building forty by eighty feet is required to hold these records alone. There are three hundred and fifty cords of records in this one building.- The Confederate records are about one-sixth of the bulk of the Union records. IdP’The Moody and Sankey meetings in Brooklyn have been attended with great suc cess. Hundreds upon hundreds have been converted. The census of South Carolina for this year, taken by the State authorities, shows a total population of 923,447, being an increase of 217,941 over the census of 1870. Of the voting population, 74,188 are whites, and 110,153 negroes. We are afraid that the complexion of things in South Carolina is not improving. iIPA new “ motive power” has been in vented by a Chicago mechanic that is said to surpass the Keely “ humbug” all hollow ! examination of Rev.

Council met at 7 o'clock, P. M. Present, his Honor, Mayor Pike ; Aldermen Williamson, Wilson. Hancock and Bailey. On motion, Aldermen Hancock. Williamson and Bailey, were appointed a Committee to confer with G. VT. Stanley in reference to the purchase of a plat of ground for a Grave Yard. Ordered, that J. M. Bums, former Marshal, be paid $20.00 in full of his account. Ordered, that the Marshal haul sand and repair tho Public Square, and that the expense for the same be paid out of any funds in the hands of the Treasurer, on proper vouchers. Minutes read and adopted, and Council adjourn ed until next Thursday night. T. H. NIBLACK, Clerk. Don't regard it as a Catcli-penny. Bradfield's Female Regulator.— We have often read iu the newspapers of the grand success of medical compounds put up at the North and elsewhere. Many of those medicines have had their day, and we hear no more of them. Their proprietors have made fortunes, not so much from the curative powers and virtues of their mixtures, as from the notoriety given thflm by advertising, by which people were made to believe all the good that was said of them. A preparation is now be fore the public which is becoming very popular, and is known as Bradfield’s Female Regulator, put up by L. H. Bradfield, of Atlanta, Ga., at $1.50 per bottle. Such is its curative virtues, that it has gained wide-spread popularity all over the country where it has been made known, and it is being introduced everywhere. We are informed that immense quantities of this medicine are be ing sold in all sections of the South and South west, especially in the city of New Orleans and in Texas. This much we say in justice to its proprietor, who is a gentleman of integrity, and who would not engage in the manufacture and sale of a hum bug.—LaGrange Reporter. Two Miles before Breakfast . Tn a neighboring city in Georgia, there is a mar ried woman, who, after her third confinement, had ulceration, with all its repulsive symptoms. She tried in vain all the nostrums ; her husband car ried her to. all the famous mineral springs, went with her to New York, Philadelphia, and other places, to consult eminent obstetricians, to no pur pose. After the use of the fifth bottle of Regula tor, she has been fully restored to her former health and happiness, and is now the ioy of the household—is able to walk two miles before breakfast. Novl3 Excellent Teas. The Original American Tea Company, of New York, of which Robt. Wells is President, was established in 1840, and since that time has been steadily gaining in favor, not only in the city of New York, but all over the country, until now teas reach every section. The leading press of the city and of hundreds of places in the country have endorsed it as perfectly reliable, and parties wish ing excellent teas at low prices, can with perfect confidence send to this company for them. Their teas are put up in one pound packages, with the kind and price printed on the wrappers; also, in boxes containing 5, 10, 20 and 30 pounds. They range in price from 40 cents to $1,30 per pound.
