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. Circular No 3.
