THE EASTMAN TIMES. WEDNESDAY, OCT. 24, 1873. OUR AGENTS Traveling Agent.— Captain J. D. Mosely. Loral Agents.— Capt. Eli McCro®**- Bethany, Ga.; Hon John Mcßae, McVille Ga.; Walter T. McArthur, Lumber City, Ga.; Town ami County. Divine Services Will be held regularly twice each month in the Court House, by the following ministers : first Sunday : Rev. D. W. Bussey, of So. Ga. Conference. Baptist.— Rev. J. S. Thompson preaches 4th Sunday and Saturd iy before. 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 us of any such. To secure an insertion, they must be handed in on Mondays. Look out for the red X which denotes that vour subscription is out or about to expire, and that your paper will be promptly stopped at the expiration of the time subscribed for. We hope every one of our subscribers to whom we thus give notice will promptly renew. Come out to the prayer meeting to-night. Cotton is daily rolling into town by the wagon load. Now is the time to advertise your business. Our warehouse is now crowded with new goods, which ate coming in to our enterprising merchants, and they have hardly time to wait on customers for unpacking and getting them in position. Business is laziness. As w'c passed Mcßae the other day we took occasion to drop iu at the store of S. Mayer, and were truly surprised to see the fine assort ment of goods he has on hand. He proposes to use the Times as a medium to let his friends know all about them before long, and we re serve further comment until then. There will be a lecture delivered to-night at the Academy, in the interest of the United Fficuds of Temperance, and our citizens who ore interested in this movement, will in all probability be benefited by attending. We bespeak for tbo lecturer a good audience and the attention of our people. We had the pleasure ot meeting in our town on last Saturday, Mr. It. J. Head, who is traveling in the interest of the house of Geo. W. Head, cirgar manufacturer and tobacco dealer, Macon, Ga. We are not acquainted with the proprietor of this house, but venture the assertion that if he be as clever as his brother he will sell goods on fair terms to those wishing to purchase in his line. We spent two or three hours at McVille last Saturday, and were pleased to note the evi dences oi improvement. Messrs. McMillan & Cos. have commenced the erection of a large and commodious storehouse, and when finished will put up the finest lot oi goods ever brought to that market. Professor Roberts, whom we mentioned in last issue as lecturing in our town on Phre nology, made quite a sensation before he left. Ills last lecture, on Memory, was, to our mind, the most interesting of the whole series, and was well received by our people. He went from here to Dublin, where ho proposed to spout four or five days. Apologetic. —On our editorial page will be found a communication relative to the organi zation of a Grange of the Patrons of Husband ry at Towns Station, which should have ap peared two weeks ago. By some oversight it has not been published before, and we hope the kind friend who forwarded us the interest ing data will excuse the seeming neglect. Public Temperance Meeting.— M. J. Cofer, State Lecturer for the United Friends of Tem perance, will deliver a public address in the academy, Thursday Oct. 2d. Let everybody attend. Mr. Cofer thoroughly understands the question of organized Temperance effort, and will explain what lead to the organization ot the United Friends ot Temperance. Avery serious stabbing affray occurred a few miles above here on last Friday at a Justice’s t ourt, between Messrs. D. T. Warren and Benjamin Moore, The facts as we gathered them, are these : The parties had a suit in the court, upon the trial of which Warren was defeated, and, becoming very much incensed, he raised a difficulty and stabbed Moore very seriously in two or three places. He was ar rested aud brought to town that night, and on Saturday waived commitment trial and gave bond for his appearance at Superior Court.— Occupying this position we do not feel justified in expressing any opinion m the matter in ad vance of the trial. The prayer meeting last Sunday night was one of the most interesting which it has ever been our good lortune to enjoy. The exhorta tion of our venerable friend and brother, Gen eral Foster, was well-timed and to the point, and we earnestly hope he succeeded in arous ing some feeling among our people that may cause them to take more interest in the matter than they have done heretofore. Let the out side world criticise and scoff, brethren, but do your duty, and your whole duty, with an eye single to the glory of God, remembering your reward is not of earth. We saw a young man on the train last Thursday, lying back in the corner of the seat *ith his boots off, eyes half closed, seemingly in a semicomatose condition, reminding us somewhat of a man who had been on a regu lar jamboree for a week. We roused him up, snd asked what was the matter. He said he bad been to that party at Lumber City the Bight before, and had seen such a nice time bait he was utterly exhausted. He said there "ere more nice girls than he had seen since % woods were burnt, and “everything to eat, /from a lady finger pea to a roast pig with a pomegranite in his mouth.” The party was i'en by Mr. Williams, on the occasion of his ghter s birthday, and we are very sorry we privileged to make one in the midst, n t their kind invitation to attend. Don t tail, business mon, to read the adver tisement in our columns of 3/essrs. Guthman & Haas, of Atlanta. It is conspicuous enough to be seen. Remember, too, that when you patronize such men as patronize your paper, you are diiectly benefitting yourselves. We had the pleasure of seeing in tow n for a day or two during the past week, Mr. Louis B. Knight, who is traveling in the interest of the popular cigar and tobacco house of Messrs. H. Myers & Brother, Savannah. Ga. Mr. Knight is from Florida, and as our “Bob” used to gobble up his hash in that vicinity, there ap peared to be a kind of “fellow-feeling” which made them wondrous kind toward each other. His pleasant face and genial manner made him and the house he represents many friends, and we cun only say, long may he wave ; and may the sun of some fair face light up the (K)night of his present loneliness.
