The Or eat Eastern CireHs and
Menagerie*
Tliis great Show visited us last Satur
day- Truly it was a Mammoth Estab
lishment. It had the largest collection of
animals that we have ever beheld in this
section of country. The Circus portion
was all our fancy could have anticipated.
The horses vtcre in splendid order—The
actors were a fine looking set. good per
formers, and elegantly, and handsomely
dressed. The performances of Jerome
Tuttle, a Georgia boy, Mr. Runnells. his
"two ions, the Miaeo fcfothei*, Prank Ash
ton and Lowery-, were superb. One of the
rarest and most interesting features of the
Cireus, was the perform anee onjhortebaek,
with his father Mr. Carroll, of a little
three year old feflew, dubed "Holly Var
den.” The little pickaynne chap won the
admiration of all, by the intelligence and
grace he displayed in his every movement.
He stood on his fathers head, in his hands
unsupported, with the sang froid of an old
veteran in the business. Sami Stickney,
the jolly clowu, kept the vast assembly
convulsed with laughter throughout the
entire performances.
Local Items.
Blossom is the local item of Bainbridge.
Pretty M. Rosenfeld wears a Greeley
hat and smokes a cob pipe.
Probe Collier is getting bare-footed on
the top of his head. Don’t let the affairs
of the State trouble you so Probe.
Haight s Great Circus and Menagerie,
was here on last Saturday. As is always
the case many thousand fifteen amend
ments were in town at an early hour, and
crowded the streets until a late hour of
the night. They readily sold their coun
try produce at a low price Jn order to get
the cut tied dollar ,’to go in the show.
The exhibition of horses, cages and wag
ons was good ; the attraction of animals
was fine ; but the circus was hardly pass
able.
Independent candidates are the order of
the day. Every man who has the big
head prevents it from bursting by running
as au independent for office. It is said
to be a mcrvelUus cur'tf;
Miller county was in town to-day and
repudiates Bruton in unmeasured tefrnts.
He is perpendicular for the nominee.
Glory in your gristle Miller !
We are sorry to hear that, the Rev. Mr.
Wash buhl of the Presbyterian church of
this city leaves in a few days for Texas,
the field of his future labor. His loss to
his church here will be irreparable. It
has seldom been our lot for a minister so
universally aud so soon to win the affec
tions of our people as lie. We hope the
rumor of his leaving is untrue. We can
not do without him.
Sugar cane is getting plentiful in these
parts.
Pkrsonat,. —We had the pleasure this
week of meeting in our sanctum Rev. Wil
lis M. Russell, Editor of that sterling pa
pPt, thejOentral City, of Albany. We
are always delighted to see Alt'. Rusßell,
We never see him unless we think of the
benefit he Inis done our city, the Gulf
Road and the cause of Methodism, by the
advocacy of these interests in the columns
of his glorious old publication, the Rain
bridge Argus. We are glad to know that
he still retains his reputation as an editor,
and that age, instead of wilting, veriges the
laurels 'round his brow. May such a good
man long live to honor a profession to
which he has devoted the best energies of
hisjife.
We are gratified to see tots friend Gen
try. of the Savannah News, in our city on
the 21st ult. He was following the Great
Eastern Menagerie and Circus, looking
after the interests of his paper. The last
we saw of him was, hat in hand, he was
trying to get a subscription out of a huge
monkey.
llruE Watermelon*. —The late political
Editor of this Journal begs to acknowl
edge the appreciated compliment of a
Forty-five pound watermelon, worthy of
the boot patch in the county in mid-Sum
mer. On its sidd it bears the inscription,
‘•To - from your old Corp‘l. “Dod.”
It is a huge watermelon—So large, lus
cious and tempting that good taste revolt
ed at the idea of sharing it with ordinary
male bipeds, and was sent to the “lovedl
ones at home” and shared by them and al
voted that “Corp’l. Dod” deserved to be
come Lieut. 11. W. Emanuel of tlid gal
lant old 17th.
Tiios. Swearingen —The Radical nomi
nee for the lower house, was very busy on
the 21st, show day, felling his Colored
friends what he knew about chickens.—
They .are not well pleased with Tom's rec
ord as a Legislature man in 1862, on this
subject. Will he convince them he did
not favor the bill to prevent them front
raising chickens on plantations then. Nous
Verrons.
Rosenfeld lias made up his mind
that no one shall compete with him
in low prices of Dress Goods, No
tions, Trimmings, etc., etc. To this
he calls the especial attention of the
iadies.
The election next Wednesday will be
conducted under the old law, as found in
the Code, commencing at section 1309.
The reason why Steininger A Kngtl at
their Flint River Stores, can sell goods for
less than any other house in Bainbridge,
because they buy for cash. Occupy three
stores, two in Bainbridge, oue at ’ aldosta,
tor which they need a large quantity of
goods which they purchase from agents
and importers direct by the packages.
Rosenfeld has on hand a large
stock of Bagging and Ties, which
he is selling at Savannah prices, laid
down.
Smith vs. Walker-Why we
Should vote for the Former.
There are Lwo eapdidaua More the
people foi<*roveAier in th<* election to emhe
off on the 2d of October—James M. Smith
and Dawson "W asker. The former the
nominee of the Democratic party. Which
will you vote for ? Honest men will sav
Smith for the following reasons :
Because Governor Smith has Iren tried
and found to be the right man in th e
right place. He has been busily engaged
during his short administration— bringing
chaos out of confusion—making fugues
disgorge their ill-gotten gains, and restor
ing it to the TfeasufV. X ] '
■Because he assert* tijjs; “I believe in
the omnipotence of; honesty.”
Because he has administered the State
government in a Wise and impartial man
ner.
Because since his accession to office the
Ku Klux organization has melted away to
nothing, and peace and quiet reigns.
Because his record is pure as a private
citizen, a soldier and as a politician.
Because he is opposed to robbery in high
places, military misrule and executive cor
ruption.
Because his administration is, and will
be diametrically opposed to Bullock’s.
Because Bullock, Blodgett & Cos., robbed
the State of millions of dollars and Dawson
Walker is of the dirt dirty.
Because,Dawson Walke? voted for and
helped to elect Bullock, was his adtiser
while in office ahd now attempts to justify
his hellish course. >. "* l. »•
Because the election of Walker would
be a vindication of Bullock and a con
demnation of Smith—it would be an en
dorsement of all the villiany and plunder
ing of the dark days of the Bullock
Legislature.
Because if Walker is elected Bullock,
Blodgett & Cos., would be in Atlanta in
thirty days.
Because if A A alker is elected, the people
of the State will have to pay those twenty
millions of fraudulently issued bonds
which were repudiated by the last Legisla
ture, thereby impoverishing the country!
Honest men, are you prepared to vote
for V, alker with,,the above lights before
you ? .Or will you stfty aWay
from the polls and allow him to be elected?
If you are, you are prepared to sell out
your birth-right-—to sacrifice your coun
try’s and your own interest to thieves and
robbers! —South Georgia Times.
