I.arg<i Holiday 'Jrmle.
Wc take pleasure in announcing tlie large
sale of liolldny gifts at the ‘-‘Music House of
tlie South.” G. O. Robinson & Go. sold
forty-seven pianos and organs for Christ
mas and New Year gifts—a larger trade
limn ever before. This is not surprising
considering the fact that the trade of this
house extends ij over the South, with tlie
reputation of selling tlie best instruments at
nearer cost of manufacture than oilier deal
ers, thus making Augusta the most attrac
tive and econonomical point in tlie South to
purchasers if pianos, oigans, and everything
in the line of music. 'I his iiouse, in com
petition witli New York dealers, lias estab

with a saving also to till- purchaser of freight
and insurance, G. O. Robinson &Cos. have
established their large and increasing trade

SLEET AND SNOW.
THE BUDDBN COLD SNAP AND WHAT IT
DID.
Up to last Saturday we had had a re
markably mild winter. There had been but
few cold days, and those were not any way
severe. Friday evening, however, the at
| mospliere grew gradually colder, during the
; night a light layer of snow fell, and we
awoke oil Saturday morning with the mer
cury at eight degrees below freezing point.
,A stiff Northwest wind was blowing, and
Saturday tlie thermometer fell lower and
at nignt registered but a lew degrees above
zero. Sunday was one of the
OOI.DEST DAYS
that lias been brought to Georgia in eight
years. Tlie thermometer went to below
zero, anil tlie weather was so cold that poo
j pic over blazing fires eouid scaiccly keep
warm. Water standing in vessels in doors
j were frozen solid, and many streams were
; ooated with ice. Sunday night and Monday
the atmosphere continued bitingly cold, and
late Monday evening it liegan sleeting. Tlie
j sleet lusted until the next morning, and was
followed by a light fall of snow, in all per
haps to a (feptli of about two or three inches.
From Mr. Janies Carey, the bridge-watch
man, we learn tiiat tlie Oconee river was
frozen over, a tiling that has not occurred
for several years. A rock hurled from the
bridge above—a distance of nearly a hundred
feet over tlie river—did not break through
j tlie ice, but merely skimmed along on tlie
surface. A little iiarder freeze, nnd Oconee
river would have made a first-class rkating
j rink.
EFFECT OX TITE OAT CKOP
The farmers who put in their small grain
early in the fail have reason to lie thankful.
| Snow is one if the best of grain fertilizers
and that which foil the oilier day will have j
j the tendency to add largely to the yield of J
: small grain next spring. As to whether any :
injury was done to the later sowings weean ,
not say, but we are under the belief tliut, in ;
Ibis county at least, the larger portion ot
the gifilp was in a condition to be benefitled
by tlie snow.
INCIDENTS OF Tllg SNOW.
—Tlie exliilirating practice of “snow-ball
ing” was properly indulged in.
—Tlie children, a* was natural hailed tlie
snow with wild shouts of delight.
—lt’s all very pice now, hut it will he
horrible whew things begin to piejt.
—lt is a pretty hard matter for one not
accustomed to walking on the snow to keep
iiis balance.
—The billies— dainty creatures! —stayed
in doors and sipped a toothsome compound
; of snow, er< am and sugar,
Kerne of the your.g picp improvised
sleds from chair-hacks and tried liand-slcigli
; ing op the railroad common. They had a
i bilge time.
—The mrrcl ants all linked blue. Trade
fell off to almost nothing on account of the

to stay in-doors.
