BtTokkhot. —Messrs, Rogers, the mighty hunters, brought in two deer a few days ago, which were very fine. They were too tlmr for us, however; but they managed to dispose of them with but little trouble. Homes.— lnquiries are made almost daily for dwellings, by persons seeking homes in our healthful and pleasant village. You men of money; lumber and lands, it is your interest to see that it does not long exist. The reader will notice in this Issue a few coy. reetions in some errors committed in the tax sales of last week. We were pleased to meet in our town on last week our old friend Captain E. D. Hendry.— 'lTic Captain is still connected with the well known house of Orff, Watkins & Cos., of Sa vannah. Kei ■loiotrs. —Preaching in the Court House an Sunday next (9tli), by the ltev. Wm, Smith (Presbyterian). Let all be in attendance. Dentistry.— If a good dentist would come rouud this way occasionally, he might do a snatching business. Vulcan. - We see anew blacksmith shop is being erected in town. A good move, this. It will head our farmers townward to get their work done. Liberalist. —The Atlanta Sun is, we sup pose. It sends ns their weekly. Wo are told by some, upon asking them to subscribe to the Times, that they would were it not for their very weak eyes. Now this is all bosh ! An application of the Times to all eyes weekly is just what's needed. We acknowledge thanks to the courteous and considerate President and Superintendent of the M. A B. Hoad, for favors extended us. Some of our exchanges, we see, lias the name of the Camilla Herald am mg their list of mem bers of the Press Association. Wo propose, since the Herald has ceased to exist, that the name be stricken out, and, at the proper time, tlie Times be inserted instead. Our interest is with you, gentlemen, and would have out efforts. We are informed that A F Lea is expecting to locate in our healthful village the in-coming spring, with a view to engaging in the hide business. News for the Million. —Our readers will notice in tins issue the card of S. G. Graham, who is off. ring to sell them goods in his line as cheap as any considerate person can expect - for a little more than they cost him. Shade Trees— Now is the time to pi uit frees. Our flourishing village just blushing into life must be beautified and adorned. You who have homes should surround them with shade and ornamental trees and flowers* thereby enhancing the value of your property and making your homes more attractive, and the viihgo the prettiest, and as it is already, the healthiest in the State. For the information of parties who may not readily see the “pint,” we will state that that cut of our wide-awake boot and shoe maker, friend Murphy, is not an indication that he is executing his work with machinery. It is in tended lor different purposes : one, that he properly ap reciates the value and importance of liis town paper, and wishes to prove his faith bv his works ; another, that his friends can ro ly on finding him always prepared with a big head of steam on for business. Our go-a-head merchant, AY. AY. Ashburn, we notice, has added considerably to the ap pearance of his front, as well as convenience of his numerous customers, by re-paving with properly-burned brick. Keep the Ball in Motion. —And now we learn that the name of the proprietor of the new steam saw mill which is being erected in the upper edge of town is Murphy, and hails from Atlanta. But perhaps, equally as impor tant an item as his name or former residence, is to note the judgment displayed in liis selec tion of a live saw mill man to “run the ma chine.” If madame rumor is near correct, he has certainly put “the right man in the right place”—we reflect on Air. J. H. Grimsley. At Ihe head of our columns, on page first, can be read : “Transient advertisements must l>e accompanied by the money." This rule likewise applies to parties at home, where the acquaintance is not a sufficient guaranty.

A MODEL NEWSPAPER) " I The Savaimnh Daily News. . - The Savannah Daily Xorning News is tv ! knowledged by the press and people to Ik* the j l*est daily paper south of Louisville ami east j of New Orleans. Carrying with it the prestige : and reliability of ago, and it has all the vigor l and vitality of youth. and ifs enterprise as a j gatherer of the latest and freshest news has j astonshed its eotemporaies and met the appro bation of the bubfie. During the year 187:1 no expense of tune, 1 labor, and'money will lie spent to keep the I Morning News ahead of all its competitors in Georgia journalism, and to deserve the flatter-! ing oiieoniunis heaped npon it from all {quar ters. There has ms yet, been no serious at- j tempt made to rival the special telegrams which the News inaugurated some years ago, and I the consequent is that the reader- in search cf the latest intelligence always looks to the! Mousing News. The telegraphic arrange- ] ments of the paper are such that the omissions j made bv the general press reports are promptly and reliably supplied by its special correspond ents. The Morning News Iris lately been enlarged : to a thirty-six column piper, and this broad j scope of type embraces, daily, everything of ink-rest that transpire in the domain of litera-! ture, Art, science, Politics, Religion, and Gen eral inti lligence. giving to the loader more and better digest matter than other papar in the State. It is perhaps needless to speak of the poll- j tics of lla\ Morning News. For years and : years indeed, since its estalishmont, it has been a representative Southern paper, and from that time to the present, in all conjunct ures, it has consistently and persistently main tained Democratic States Rights principles, and labored, with an ardor and devotion that know no abatement, to promote and preserve the in- , terests and honor of the South. The special features of the Morning News J will be retained and improved upon during the ' ensuing year, and several new attractions will! be added. The Georgia News items, with their quaint j and pleasant humor, and the epitome of Florida j affairs, will be continued during the year. | The local department will be as it has been for ! the past year, the most complete and reliable to be found in any Savannah paper, and the com- j mereial columns will be full and accurate. The price of the Daily is 810 00 per annum; i 82.00 for six months; SI.OO for one month. THE TRI-WEEKLY NEWS. This edition of the Morning News is es- ; pecially recommended to those who have not i the facilities of a daily mail. Everything that I has been said in regard to tlie daily edition ; may be repeated of the Tri-weekly. It is made up with great care, and contains the latest des patches and market reports. The price of this edition is SG. 00 per annum, $3.00 for six months, and $1.50 for three months. • THE WEEKLY NEWS. Tlie Yv’eekly Morning News particularly rec ommends itself to the farmer, and planter, and to those who live off the line of railroad. It is one of the best family papers in the country, | and its cheapness brings it within the reach of : all. It contains TLirty-six solid columns of reading matter, and is mailed so as to reach sul>- scribers with the utmost promptness. It is a carefully and laboriously edited compendium ol the news of the week, anil contains in aildi j tion, an infinite variety of other choice reading | matter. Editorials on all topics, sketches of i men, manners, and fashions, tales, poetry, bi ography, pungent paragraphs and condensed telegrams enter into its make-up. It contains the latest telegraphic dispatches and market re ports up to the hour of going to press, and is in all respects, an indispensible adjunct to every i home. # Price-One year, $2.00; six months, $1.00; three months, 50 cents.
