Why don’t somebody, or some thing, “cut a
shine,” and give us a local? We’ve puzzled
our brain and worried oar body to get some
thing new and the hour for publication is dis
tressingly near. It is useless to walk out, or
“dow-n town." The few who can be seen are
supremely indifferent to our pressing wants.
Ask a thousand times, “What's the news?"
and the invariable answer is. with a glance up
ward, “Well, it looks like clearing up!’
Pshaw ! we almost wish it had rained another

voke us ?
Personal.— "We were pleased to meet in our
town yesterday, Mr. Frobelle, travelling agent
for the Sunny South. Mr. F. reports that ster
ling sheet in a most flourishing condition,
having now more tbau 100,000 readers. This
paper merits the support and patronage ot ev
ery Georgian.
A Variety of Names. —“ What do we call
money ?" Exchawje. Well, by several or
more names. Some describe it as spondulix,
some as the stuff, some as the sugar, some
as rhino, some as spoons, some as reaey,
some as brads, some as sorts. The French
call it l’argent, the English, the needful,
in Mexico, castings, in the East and South it
is rocks and tin, in the W’est, rags, in Cana
da it goes by the name of spelter. Here
abouts it is SHORT.
OCMULGEE AND HORSE UREEK RaILBOAD.—
This new enterprise of the Georgia 1 and aud
Lumber Company m Telfair county, under
the supervision of Mr. A. G. P. Dodge, is
nearing completion, that is to say the first
seven miles of permanent track. The Com
pany propose to build temporary branch
tracks aud extend the main road as their in
terest iu the lumber business may require.
They will have several mills along this line.
Twin Sugar Cane.— We were presented,
some time ago while iu Dublin, by Mr. J. M.
Lowrey, of Laurens couuty, with a real novel
ty in the way of a twin sugar cane. Its base
for several joints was one well-shaped, well
matured stalk ; it then forked at a joint form
ing two medium-sized, well-matured canes of
about eight or ten joints each iu length, the
joint at the fork having two eyes. This cane
was grown by Mr. Lowry, and the only one
of the kind in a large patch.
Ladies’ Reading Club. —We regret very
much being unable to attend the Ladies’ Read
ing Club at Rev. Mr. Dodge’s on Thursday
evening last, but are glad to learn that it was
well attended and steps inaugurated to make
these weekly meetings most delightful and en
joyable. Among other attractive features
they are to have a newspaper, not, however,
we are proud to say, in opposition to the
Times. The Club meets this (Thursday)
evening again at Rev. Mr. Dodge’s.
We were presented, on Monday last, by our
genial fellow-townsman Mr. J. Day
with a basket of very fine potatoes of anew
variety, in this section at least, called the St.
Domingo Yam. It is certainly a very fiuetable
potato, and it is s-aid at least six weeks earlier
than the common varieties and grows much
fimr, with a larger yield. We are authorized
to say that Mr. Stewart has a few bushels of
these potatoes to spare and will take pieusuie
in furnishing any one desiring to get in pos
session of this excellent variety at $1.25 per
bushel, though his seed cost him $5.00 per
bushel. Apply to Mr. Stewart at once and
you will be accommodated.
Let Us Up and Be Doing.
What are our Churches doing in th e way of
building? It is a sad commentary upon the
good people of our town, that we have
no house dedicated to the worship of God.
We have a church-going people as is demon
strated every Sabbath. But how ofttn do we
hear the remark : “I do not feel in the Court
Ilonse, like I do in church.” Our children
are growing up aiouud us, and tc know Irom
obseivation what kiud of an edifice a church
building is, would absolutely compel them to
go from home to find out, and this, too, in the
face o t our boasted civilization anc professed
Christianity. How long are we then to “lie
supinely on our backs and hug the delusive
pliiii tom of hope? ” Verily we hope not long.
One straight-forward, earnest, determined ef
fort on the part of either the Y ethodist, Pres
byterian or Baptist churches, would build a
house. Many are ready and willing to aid iu
this work if only a proper spirit was mani eet
ed on the part of some church organization.
It is absolu ely necessary. Think of it! A
town of some seven hundred or a thousand
inhabitants, comtortable, very comlortable
dwellings as a whole, good substantial busi
ness houses, an excellent academy, a splendid
court house, a maguiticeut hotel, and no sign
of a ehuch edifice ! These things ought not
so to be. We have but recently read with
pleasure aud pride, the glowiug descriptiou of
our town aud people L>y a distinguished cor
respondent of the Macon Telegraph and Mes
senger, and by another, nearly at the same
time, of the Savannah Morning Xeics, (both
of which we copied last week,) yet we feel
that this dereliction of duty, of so it be, on the
part of the three church organizations here
should no longer be indulged iu. Now, will
not one or aU of these oigauizations go to
work at once to supply this necessity ? By all
means let our young aud growing town have
a house, or bouses, built and dedicated to tho
worship of the “giver of all good."

Atlanta Constitution
FOR. 1878.
Will maintain tbe reputation it has already
won as
THE LEADING SOUTHERN DAILY.
The particular features which have given it a
popularity th it might almost be termed special
will not only be continued, but such improve
ments made as will give additional zest, viva
city and brilliancy to its columns. In
THE EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT
all the topics of the time will candidly, care
fully and thoroughly he discussed, but to no
extent of tediousness. The political “leader”
will be happily relieved by light and pleasing
essays upon social and literary themes, and by
piquant paragraphical comments upon current
events.
THE LATEST NEWS.
The enterprise of the Constitution in gather
iug and placing before its readers the latest
and freshest intelligence from all parts of the
world, which has been trequently illustrated
of late ou speeial occasions, win n eveuts of
absorbing public interest were transpiring,
and which has been made the subject of con
gratulatory cornu: unt by both press and peo
ple, will suffer no abatement. The natural
advantages of the location of the Constitution
at the political, commercial and mws center
of the tttate, together with the special facilities
that are the outgrowth of energy, experience
and ample resources, will all be utilized for
the benefit of its readers. Its dispatches are
superior to those ot any daily newspaper south
ol Nashville, and its news is tuller and fresher.
In this respect the Constitution Inis
NO RIVAL IN GEORGIA.
It will be tl e aim of the editors in future,
as it has been in the past, to make their p.iper
in every respect a reflex of Georgia’s progress
And Georgia’s greatness, and a faithful, vigor
ous and unswerving Champion of Georgia’s
interests.
No effort or expense will be spared to make
the Constitution indispensable to the Lawyer,
Merchant, Farmer, and Politician, and to ren
der it equally welcome in the counting-room
and at the fireside. “Old JSi” will continue to
air his quaint philosophy through its columns,
hud “Uncle Kemus” will occasionally warble
one of his plantation song.-. Tile Supreme
Court decisions, matters pertaining to the Ex
ecutive business of the State, aud the proceed
ings of the Legislature will all find their am
plest and earliest record in the columns of the
Constitution.
THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION
will be iu every respect as newsy and as enter
taining as the daily. It will comprise every
feature of interest that experience can possibly
suggest—a cart fully edited resume of the latest
uews from all parts of the world, and matters
of political, literary, scientific, agricultural
and commercial moment will find iu its col
umns their completest embodiment.

REMARKABLE SUCCESS.
The success of the leading literary paper of
the West, The ChUw/o IssUjer, is truly Re
markable. Since its introduction to the read
iLg public, six years ago, The Lkdohk has
steadily advanced in favor, and is now ac
knowledged second to no paper wt the kind in
the country. Its circulation is national, and
lias been obtained through the efforts of its
publishers to produce a paper of high moral
character, and at the same time s*U it at a
price consistent with the present hard time*.
That they have succeeded, anil well, too, the
thousands of readers of The Ledger scattered
from Maine to Texas, and from Oregon to
Florida, will bear testimony. The Chicago
Ledger is a large forty-eight coluinu weekly
paper, which contains stories both complete
