BEPORTORIAL ECHOES.
Rain, rain, let us have rain 1
The campaign is fairly open.
Politics and hot weather.
“Pull up your socks" is the latest slang
out.
Nobody is aver so happy or so unhappy
as he imagines.
Fruit of every description is getting
scarce, and gardens very poor.
Office, office, office, office, office, office,

We wish to speak in time for a skating
rink this winter.
Cotton picking is the order of the day.
It has begun in good earnest.
The work of cleaning and purifying
the city goes bravely on.
The Cornets got back without serious

Sun bonnets and palmetto fans are fash

Money continues close in Bainbridge, but
not close enough for us to reach any of
it.
We’ve forgot if we have said it before,
but, if not, we will let you know next
week.
The prospects for s brisk trade this sea-
are good, and tome of our merchants are
preparing for it.
They have got so they car photograph
sounds. Wonder how one of Hunnewell’s
yells would look ?
We see from bills on the streets that
there will be some kind of a show In town
next week.
Bainbridge has received, up to date,
35 bales cotton. Prices range from 8
to 9} cents.
The thermometers have been climbing
again, and for the past week the weather
has been unprecedently warm.
Bless goodness, and everybody else, we
are nearly through with the dull summer
months.
It may be some consolation to know
that the weather has been as hot through
out the country as here.
A Bainbridge girl, anxious to get rid of
a persistent lover, has promised te marry
him when Whiteley is elected.
What’s the use of advertising when you

These are the times when paper collars

day.
Some of the friends of Mr. W. A. Dick
inson, of this city, have mentioned his
name in connection with the Democratic
nomination for the Legislature.
It is said that young folks grow most
when in love. That probably accounts
for the rapid development of our young
girls—for, you know, ail the girls are in
love.
According to our prediction, Brimbery
has beeu nominated by the Radicals for
Senator. We shall expect every good
Democrat to assist Bush whip him out of

In the match game of ball Tuesday the
Stars play Graves, Whiteley, Wooten,
Ray, B. L. Griffin, Townsend, Williams,

“Where ignorance is bliss’tis folly to be
wise.” Quite a number of candidates for
office are at present laboring under the
delusion that they will be nominated and
elected.
Read the short but patriotic letter from
Faceville. It was written by one of the
leading men of the county, and has the
right ring about it. We commend it to
the careful attention of the “soreheads”
of the county.
Our young friend Johnny Law, the
very prince of good fellows, and as polite
a salesman as the world affords, is now
behind the counter of Messrs. Weil &
Loeb. He will prove quite an acquisi
tion to this already popular house.
When you see a boy travelling dow n
the road with a Grecian bend on him
that looks as if he had been hit in the pit
of the stomach with a fence rail, you
know full well that it is the flood tide of
the green apple season.
We never like to be inquisitive, but
would give something to know exact dates
when Amram will have his collection of
insects ready for exhibition ? We under
stand he received a fine specimen one day
last week. He desires no partnership-
says he is able to carry out the scheme.
“omiua revelat."
Letters received from Mr. James R.
Graves, who has been tusticating in the
Northern part of the State for the past
three weeks, says “Am well and having
splendid time,” and we are inclined to be
lieve him, for Jim is a good fellow and
always manages to have a “good time”
wherever he goes.
Small farms well tilled have many ad
vantages—larger wages paid for help, less
tims wasted, land better tilled, more rais
ed to the acre, near neighbors, good
woods, more schools and churches. Let
all surplus land be sold off, and extra ef
forts made to make that which is retained
doubly productive, and this will be a long
stride in the road to making the farm
pay.
The citizens of this place who anticipa
ted seeing the city built up to the depot,
and the seminary grounds densely sur
rounded with houses, will have to make
greater exertions toward inducing immi
gration te our city than they have done
heretofore. Let each one of us place our
“shoulder to the wheel” of advancement
and help it out of the mire. Concentra
ted action will bring about good results.
THE LASH OF FLOWERS.
The Excursion to Jacksonville, St
Augustine, ftc-
Tbe excursion party which left thi*
place on Monday, the 14th inst, under
charge of that very prince of excursion
managers, Capt. J. W. Craig, was a most
enjoyable and delightful trip. The party
from this city numbered some twenty-five,
including the Silver Cornet Band. After
a pleasant ride in one of Pullman’s Palace
Cars, we arrived next morning, Tuesday,
at Baldwin, the point where the W. I. T
C. R. R., from Fernaiidina to Cedar
Keys, crosses the Florida road. Here the
band struck up a lively air, at the conclu
sion of which Governor Geo. F. Drew,
who was present, was called for and re
sponded in a few words of thanks for the
compliment conveyed by the calL Twen
ty miles further, and we reached Jackson
ville, the Queen city ef Florida, and the
Saratoga of the South, at precisely
o’clock, a. «.
The day was here spent by the excur-
ters in looking aronnd the city, and in the
afternoon a good many availed themselves
of the opportunity to visit the Bar, twen
ty-five miles down the nver. We found
Jacksonville very hot and exceedingly
dull, nearly all of its citizens who could
get away having gone off in search of a
cooler sphere. The Radical Convention
of the Second Florida District was in ses
sion, for the purpose of nominating a can
didate for Congress. We visited the hall,
but became so thoroughly disgusted with
the pow-wowiug mauagerie that we con
sidered it time thrown away, and left.
Bisbee, a Maine carpet-bagger, was nomi
nated.
On Wednesday we boarded the fine
Steamer Florence, which was to convey
the party fifty miles up the river to To-
coi, the point from which the railroad
leads to St. Augustine, our terminal des
tination. The ride up this wonderful and
beautiful river was pleasant beyond ex
pression, and was much enjoyed by those
present. The band kept up music pretty
much all the way, which greatly enhanc
ed the value of the trip. The boat stop
ped long enough for us to take a look at
the wonderful Green Cove Spring, repu
ted one of the finest sulphur springs in
the South. This spring was the subject
of much admiration by the excursion par
ty, and each one was anxious to take a
drink of its pellucid waters.
Without accident, or incident worth
mentioning, we reached St. Augustine at
three o’clock Wednesday. This is the
oldest city on the continent, and is equal
ly as queer and quaint as it is old. Our
party stopped at the Marion House, and
were kindly received and cared for. The
excursionists, we believe, visited nearly
every point of interest in the city during
the afternoon, including a visit to old
Fort Marion and the Indians confined
therein. The sight of a veritable red man
of the forest was quite a novelty to some
of the inlanders, and it was rather amus'
ing to note the friendly reluctance with
which the genial “sand tappers” of South
western Georgia received the crude salu
tation of Messrs. Lo ! We also visited
the Cathedral, the oldest church in Amer
ica.
At night a pleasant hop was given in
the dining saloon of the Marion House,
sad was participated in by a number of
ladies and gentlemen of St. Augustine, as
well as the excursionists.
Thursday morning the return trip com
menced, and leaving Augustine at 8 o’clock
reached Bainbridge Friday morning at
7i o’clock, all well, and “right side up
with care."
The whole party numbered some two
hundred, and we never saw a crowd in
wiiidh so much enjoyment and pleasure
were manifested. The excursion was a
complete success in every particular, and
everybody is loud in praising Capt. Craig,
to whom we are indebted for so rich a
fuud of amusement and pleasure. Nor
can we close this hastily-devised sketch
without returning thanks the gentlemanly
and obliging Captain Richardson and
Purser Brock, of the Steamer Florence,
and to the officers of the railroadl, for
courtesies and attentions. The press was
numerously represented, as usual on such
occasions.
Allen and Wight-
By reference to the proceedings of the
meeting held in the Ben.,Bruton District,
(old Limesink) it will be observed that
the Convention instructed its delegates
to vote for Judge Alexander A. Allen
and George A. Wight for candidates for
the Legislature. We take this occasion to
endorse most heartily and earnestly the
suggestion. We were on the point of
writing an editorial, ourselves suggesting
these gentlemen for the positions named,
wliln the proceedings came in.
We think no better selection could be
made, and would regard a ticket compos
ed of .hese gentleraeu of superior strength
probably to any that conld be placed in
the field. They are both gentlemen so
well known to the people of Decatur
county as houest citizens and true men,
that their names would call forth enthu
siasm among the people and bring to the
polls the full -and united strengt h of the
Democrats of the county. With Allen
and Wight to lead us, we could reasona
bly hope for success, and we trust the Con
vention to assemble here on the 8th may
consider it wisdom to give them to us as
candidates.
Thmk—Consider-
Now is the time to commence prepara
tions for our Northern visitors, who are
coming here this fall and winter. Don’t
let us be behind in this matter. Other
places are straining every nerve to attract
the attention of the pleasure-seekers. Wc
have everything in our favor. Every in
ducement to persons who love aquatic
gports is here offered, and if we are left
out in the cold it will certainly be our
p wn fault Who will take ths lead ?
A RICH TREAT-
Grand Vocal and Instrumental Con
cert for the Benefit of tne Cor
net Band-
It is with pleaaare that we inform the
citizens of Bainbridge and vicinity that
some of the young ladies and gentlemen
of this city have been in active rehearsal
for some time past, preparatory to giving
a grand vocal and instrumental concert
The performance wi 1 take place at Hop-
son Hall on next Tuesday evening, and is
given for the benefit of our Brass Band, to
help enable them to pay their teacher.
The performers are selected from the
very best musical talent of the city, and
we can safely promise a rich treat to all
lovers of good music. Among them we
may mention Mrs. R M. Johnston, Miss
Fannie Lockwood, Miss Susie Zeigler,
Miss Agnes Donalson, Prof. S. Geeks,
Mr. I. M. Rosenfeld, C. H. Curry and
Mr. K. S. V. Randolph, of ^Kicjuiaville,
a most excellent and fitush»,fvocs?ist.
The feature of the evening will be a
characteristic piece, just published, enti
tled, “The Farmer feeds us all.” Prof.
Geeks, who stands unrivaled as a Claro-
net Player, has kindly volunteered to as
sist with some choice selections of solos.
The Cornet Band will also render some of
its sweetest airs, and in fact, the pro
gramme will be rich and sparkling with
musical and operatic gems, appropriately
interspersed with the quaint, queer and
quizzical.
We bespeak for the Band a full house,
and while we are enjoying ourselves with
the sweets of delicious strains of music,
we can have the gratifying assurance of
contributing to a laudable and mo3t
worthy cause. Knowing, as we do, the
high standard of appreciation which our
people entertain for musical talent, we ut
terly discard all misgivings of not seeing
a crowded house on this occasion.
The price of admission will be 50 cents
for single ticket, and 75 cents for lady
and gent. The doors will be open at 74
and performance will begin promptly at
8i-
Base Ball-
A match game of base ball was played
in this city on Friday last between the
“Stars,” of Bainbridge, and the “Whig-
hams,” of Whigham. The ‘Stars,’ though
short three of their regular nine, played
well, making but few errors. The Whig-
ham boys are good players, but a little
more pr.ictice would do them good. The
score stood at the end of the game, ‘Stars’
46; "Whighams,” 7. The “Wbighams"
were “whitewashed" five times.
On next Tuesday, the Ward County
lub, from Florida, will be in our city
and play the “Stars." This c ub has the
reputation.of being one of the smartest
in Florida, having defeateftly^ Occiden
tals, of Quincy, a few days since. The
Stars will also be in fine trim, having
their full team out, and a spirited aud in
teresting game may be looked for.
The game will be called at 4 o’clock,
P. M., sharp, and the putilic is invited to
witness it. At night a ball will be given
for the benefit of the visiting guests, and
we hope our people will do everything to
make the stay of our Florida friends com
fortable and pleasant.
Col- Wm- 0. Fleming-
The Gainesville (Fla.) Times pays this
handsome compliment to one of our first
citizens:
‘This distinguished gentleman from
Bainbridge, Ga., stated in his address to
the citizens the other evening, that Florida
was fast approaching a period of unex
ampled prosperity; her rich lands, more
valuable than those of Georgia, because of
the variety and rarity of the products in
sured by her genial climate, would attract
that class of immigration most necessary
to the rapid development of any country
—the agricultural class. That her agri
cultural, commercial and political ranks
as one of the States of the Union, was
merely a question of time, depending
great ly upon the industry, energy and
enthusiasm of her citizens. When such
representative men as Col. Fleming visit
our section, receive favorable Impresssions
and utter such predictions, our citizens
may well give thoughtful attention to his
suggestions.”
Letter From A Lady
Local Editoh Democrat: Will you
not inspire our citizens with the patriotic
desire that, ere the year ends its course,
every one of them shall have planie4 his
share of shade trees in our lovely town ?
We have one tree-lined avenue, hut too
soon, unfortunately, the traveler emerges
from its shade into a long stretch of sandy
roadway, upon which the sun pours its
scorching rays with almost uninterrupted
intensity. It would be a very easy matter
for the people of our town to form an as
sociation or company and pledge them
selves to plant trees ere it is too late, in
commemoration of the CentenniaL
If this plan, which has been suggested
by a zealous Northern man, should be
carried out, we would at the next Cen
tennial show one of the most beautiful
and sylvan like cities in the world. If
you lend your zeal, patriotism, and in
fluence we feel assured of the furtherance
of our suggestion.
A LADY WHO ADMIRES THE ALREADY
FAMED LITTLE “OAK ClTY. ”
The Campaign
The campaign will open in this county
in real good earnest after the 6th prox, at
which time the Democrats will place their
county ticket in the field. That the can
vass will be led hot, no one, who has been
a close observer of events for the past
month, can have any room for doubts.
The fight will be a stubborn one, and
every good party man will be called upon
to do his duty. The Democrat will go
into the fight with coat off and sleeves
rolled up, determined to use every means
within its power to secure success for the
party of honesty and reform.
Nothing can be more apparent than that
our poor old tax-ridden county requires a
change in management. The welfare of
the whole people, without regard to color
or politics, sternly demands a change, and
that honesty, ability and intelligence
should succeed imbecility and misman
agement. For eight years the indebted
ness of the county has been steadily in-
creasi eg, notwithstanding our people an
nually groan under a rate of taxation sim
ply crushing. And this is how the glori
ous Radical party of Decatur county man
ages affairs. Then, Democrats, people,
do you not think a change desirable t If
so, attest your desires by deeds of work.
Put good men in nomination, and, when
they are nominated, cease not to work
until they are elected.
Good Words From Faceville-
Faceville, Ga., August 15th 1876.
Meters. Editors: Let the country peo
ple from this part ot the county be heard
through your paper, in reference to those
of the town, with whom we have no dif.
fcrence or grudge but hold them warm in
our affections. We have sympathised
together in every adversity of political
success and defeat. They have shafed
with us in asserting and sustaining our
common honor and our common rights.
We know their political faith, which
though like the mariner's needle, it may
suddenly and casually amid this boister
ous wave of contention, tremulously
vibrate aid depart from its true direction,
will nevertheless instinctively return and
steadily point te the pole of union and of
concord. We still believe in them—we
wifi still support any of them, no matter
what is their profession, with a fond par
tiality. We wifi submit to almost any
sacrifice which wifi promote our success
as a parly; surely they wifi not break, as
an empty bubble, the party they so truly
adorn. Ou<* chances of success are indeed
flattering in this campaign; let us heal and
forget every dissention, and town and
country people march to victory with an
undaunted front.

True Words.
Every town of any pretentions wants a
newspaper, and should be willing to sustain
it. A newspaper cannot live without pat
ronage, and cannot thrive and be effective
for the common good if that patronage is
stinted and given grudgingly. An "editor
may write up his town week after week and
extol it to the skies ; be may tell his readers
at a distance of the liberal enterprise of its
citizens ; he may do all these things, but
unless his advertising columnsyhow the bus
iness life of its merchants and the trades
man, that paper’s influence cannot be made
available. As we have said the advertising
columns of a local paper is the true index
of the business rpirit of the town.
With a good paper and live and thrifty
business men no town can long remain in
obscurity. It wifi rise iu spite of hard times
and prosper even though all around may be
financially pressed.
Attention Patrons

Want of Confidence-
Trade is depressed, and the industries of

you are told it is due to‘want of confidence."
Ask the few who have not used Dr. Tutt's

The Grand Secret of Beauty
Is health The secret of health is the power
to eat, digest and assimilate a proper quan
tity of wholesome, nutritious food. This
can never be done when the liver does not
act its part. It is the great driving wheel
in the mechanism of man, and when it is
out of order, the whole organization becomes
deranged, and fever, dyspepsia, siok head
ache, constipation, jaundice, bilous oolic,
kidney disease and general debility ensues.
To restore the normal functions of the liver
and impart that beauty, which always at
tends a healthy, robust constitution. Dr.
Tutt’s Vegetable Liveb Pills are conscien
tiously recommended. They are designed
solely for the disordered liver and the dis
ease which it produces. They are not a
cure-all, but in the cases mentioned they
rurely ever fail to effect a cure.
