Any parson sending in a dub of five snb scibtrs and the amount of ten dollars in cash, will receive a copy of the Times lor one year free. gg" L ll m '■ 'aninj '.'A 11 Town and bounty. Divine Services Will I*t held regularly twice each month in the Court House, by the following ministers : First Sunday : Rev. D. AW Bussey, of So. Ga. Conference. Second Sunday : Rev. R. C. Smith, Presby terian minister. All irregular appointments will be given pub licity through the Times, provided we are put in possession of them ; and we will be under many obligations to anyone who will inform ns of any such. To secure an insertion, they must be handed in on Mondays. Tu anothe r column will be found the account of our Mr. Burton’s trip to Dublin. AVc wish it distinctly understood that he, and not the editor, is responsible for everything said there in, except his testimony of the cleverm/ss of the Dublin people, this, so far as we are ac quainted, we can fully endorse. latest dress goods at lowest prices, at the “French Store.” G. Coleman. We don’t wish to blow our own horn too extensively, or anything ol that kind, but the way our subscription list has run up in the last two weeks is refreshing and encouraging in the extreme. We have added nearly one hundred now names to our list in this, Mont gomery and Laurens counties, and the cry is “still they come." We return our heartfelt and sincere thanks to our many friends who have thus encouraged us in our efforts to give them a live readable and good family paper, and assure them that no pains shall be spared in the future to make the Times worthy of their generous support. Everybody who comes to town should go to the “french More.” G. Coleman. Out clever young friend Lozier, who has been fur some time connected with Dr. Buch.m sdrug establishment, now manipulates the scissors and yard stick for Mr. AW AW Ashburu. New goods of ey<r> W ntwidc**" i 5 G. CoLEMAJt. Removal. Gen’l Foster on last Mon day removed to the house formerly occupied by Air. Hills, Major .Armstrong taking his place at the hotel. We ere sorry to note these exchanges in homesteads, since it robs our town of Air. Hills and family, who remove to •Station 12. New goods of every style, at the “French Store.” * G. Coleman. i&i- Now we would like to suggest to some of our live, go-ahead merchants the idea of es tablishing a soda fount in town. Nothing could be more refreshing during the coming hot summer than a nice drink occasionally of good iced soda. AYlio will be the man to make the move? We pause for a reply. Ladies’ Ilats, in great variety, at the “French Store.” G. Coleman. . And now, gentlemen of the hotel com pany, we rise to make a lew remarks about that mammoth hotel, the which you propose to build, and would like to know what shape the matter now stands in ? and when the work will be commenced ? when finished, and what is the reason something is not being done?— If the stock has not been taken up, where is the books? who has them in charge? how many shares are there ? and how much a share ? All these are questions which it might be well to answer through the advertising columns of the Times, for perhaps other people would like to know as well as us. AVe can t take any stock in it, but then we may get hungry some time in the future, and would like to have a place whereat to refresh the larder ol the inner man. Let us hear from you. Ladies’ Cloth Gaiters, best Philadelphia make, at the 1 ‘Fiencli Store.” ('. 0 ileman. And now while we are stirring up folks generally, and asking all sorts ot impertinent questions, we woule like to know wliat about those new signs our merchants wore going to get. We don't see anything but the “Pea gogk Bar,” which is nearly as large as thv g ible end of his store. We know ol a truth that Windham A Cos. are the men to paint them, if our merchants want to thus add to thtir places of business. Embroidery Edging and Insertion, all stiles, at the “French Store.” G. Coleman. Jl&F' Pulaski Superior Court met on last Monday, and our idea now is to run over and pay our Hawkinsville friends a pop call this t ling. It may be a dangerous piece of bus iness to thus “carry the war into the enemy’s country,” and “beard the lion in liis den” by going into Woods’ own town, but however, with trust in the adage, “there’s a sweet little cherub that sits up aloft to keep watch for poor Jack,” we intend to go in, in the interest of the Times, and if Woods turns out on ns with his devil and shooting stick, why, we'll crave the protection of the court, and put him under bonds to keep the peace. Fine Stamped Yokes ut the “French Stoic. G. Coleman. j *lt in orU<- r , we would like to know why i it is that our Ifowkinsville subscribers emi t get their piper*. We much dislike to prefer I charges against any one, but our sulweribers at Copeland and other offices, whose papers puss through the Hawkinsville office, make compl unts lo ns that they don’t receive tlieir papers, m ik-u we know they are mailed regu larly rout thi# f ,fg co> There’s “something rotten in Denmark,” and we would very much like to know where the fault lies. e have received the April and May number* of the Star Spangled Banner, pub -1 shed ai Hinsdd j, New Hampshire, by Mes six Hu her A Cos. It i* much improved within the last year or two, and bids fair to take stand among the leading literary papers of the day. .Also, the extra number of The Smith, pnb liyliel i New York, devoted exclusively to Alabama. This is anew feature of joumal isin, inaugurated by this paper, and consists ol an extra number on each one of the South ern States in succession, sotting forth statistics, majw, figures, Ac., together with their several rusourees and distinguishing features. N'A' New Enterprise. —We paid a visit on last A ' mday to the new brick yard of Air. Os good, from Brunswick, who establishes this is ' and nmdi needed enterprise in our midst. We caw some brick which he has moulded merely to try the texture of the clay, and be seems confident tbit he can make really good bn-d. In our opinion this is an enterprise tb f will add materially to the development ol our lawn. Here we have lumber in abundance, without any cost of transportation, and car peuters and all the building facilities, and these together with the brick at our very doors, will make Eastman one ol the most convenient places in the State in which to build. Per haps, too, the time is not far distant when brick houses will begin to be built, and then oi.r t(. .vn will assume somewhat of a solid ap pearance. Answers to Correspodents, A blue-eyed damsel wishes to know il “all editors dye their moustache.” No, they do not The editor ol this paper does not. from the fact that he has none to dye; the proprietor docs, however, and that is nearly equivalent, with the exception we are not re sponsible for it. He fell down the other day and stuck his mouth in the ink ke". “Doctor Q>”- As to “what relation ship the larnyx nfid diaphoueous cnriculum may bear to the cutaneous covering of the sym pathetic auracular diaphraglim of the longitu dinal lobes of ths left lung,” we can’t sav.— Besides we are uo professor of surgery, and don t wisli to be bothered with any such jaw breaking nonsente. P"-" “Johnm.’’—AVe can't tell you where the Pic Nic will be held yet. A\ ill let you know through these columns when we find out. Not being a married man neither can we say, posi tively, how much cloth Lidies generally put in >• *ss ; lmt a young lady friend told us, not , ioj pVit thirty yards in a . -w. l , "W* “ u>4 i. D:ru.q your < mteneffeu imgHf make both ends meet with 28 \ or 20 yards.— It would not be safe to make your for less, unless your girl is very economical. An anonymous party at Bethany sends us a small pamphlet, and asks If we “are in the patent business.” No, we are not. AVe have an idea, however, of patenting some humbug, and if we can find out who you are, will at once make application for a patent on you. Two-tliirds of the world are fools, who prefer a humbug to a thing of merit, and we think you’ll take splendid.

Hpril Oth, 1873-3f)d A MODEL NEWSPAPER The Savannah Daily News, The Savannah Daily Norning News is ac knowledged by the press and people to be the best daily paper south of Louisville and cast of New Orleans. Carrying with it the prestige and reliability of age, and it has all the vigor and vitality of youth, and its enterprise as a gatherer of the latest aid freshest news has astonslied its cotempomies and met the appro bation of the bublio. During the year 1873 no expense of time,, labor, and money will be spared to keep the Mobkiwj News -ahead of all its competitors in Georgia journalism, and to deserve the flatter ing enconiums heaped upon it from all quar ters. There has as yet, been no serious at tempt made to rival the special telegrams which the News inaugurated some years ago, and the consequence, is that the reader in search cl the latest intelligence always looks to the Morning News. The telegraphic arrange-- ments of the paper are such that the omissions made by the general press reports are promptly and reliably supplied by its special correspond ents. The Morning News has lately been enlarge <ff to a thirty-six column paper, and this broad scope of type embraces, daily, everything of interest that transpire in the domain of litera ture, Art, science, Politics, Religion, and Gen— eral intelligence, giving to the roader more and 1 letter digest matter than other papar in the State. It is perhaps needless to speak of the poli ties of tluq Morning News. For yours and years indeed, since its estalishment,—it has been a representative Southern paper, and* lrom 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 tliat know no abatement, to promote and preserve the in-, tercsts and honor of the South. The special features of the Morning New* will be retained and improved upon during tho. ensuing year and several new' attractions will be added. 1 lie Georgia News items, with their quaint and pleasant humor, and the epitome of Florida affairs, will he continued during the year,. The local department will be the most com plete and reliable to be found in any Savan nah paper, and the commercial columns w ill be full and accurate. The price of ;li? Daily is $lO 00 per annum s2.oo for six months; SI.OO for one moaih. THE TEI-WEEKLY NEWS. This edition of the Morning News is es pecially recommended to those who have n*t the facilities of a daily mail. Everything that has 1 >eeii said in regard to the daily edition may l>e repeated of the Tri-weekly, ft is made up with great care, and contains the latest des patches and market reports. The price of this edition is SO. 00 per annum, $3. CO for six months, and $1.50 for three months. THE WEEKLY NEWS.
