No Picnic at High I'ail*.
We announced last week by request
that the annual picnic at High Falls
would be held on the 7th of May.
Since then we have learned that there
will be no public picnic at the Falls
this year. For reasons satisfatory to
the parties at interest this step has
been taken. We call attention to this
lest some may he mislead by our an
nouncement of last week. Picnic
goers will doubtless select some other
romantic spot at which to congregate
in May and have a gala day.

The I'rciit,
Since spring began in earnest last
week betokening the coming of sum
mer, the fact is developed that the
fruit is not all killed as was so uni
versally declared after the last cold
snap. An investigation shows that
many peach trees and some plum
trees have considerable fruit still re
maining on them, while most all of
the trees have some. Whether the
fruit remaining on the trees was so
injured by the cold as to prevent its
being developed into good, luscious
fruit, remains for the futfrfflS dt*dde. ’

A Wcieosue Shower.
Since the Bth of March this com
munity lias been without rain up to
yesterday morning, save a slight
sprinkle or two. Early yesterday
morning the rapid transit of the
clouds, almost directly from the
South, portended rain. Just before 8
o’clock a dark cloud hung over us
long enough to give us quite a re
freshing shower, which was accom
panied with a strong wind. While
the rainfall was far from being a
needed season, yet it enlivened vege
tation, quieted the dust and made all
hearts glad.

Another evidence of the buried
hatchet on the part of the North!
Society ladies are going in for the
new “ Winnie Davis”hat. It maybe
the name, or it may be the peculiar
curve in the long front brim, which
slightly shades the eves and is hence
becoming to all faces. In this case it
is not the vanity of the ladies of fash
ion, but common sense, that has given
the hat such wide-spread popularity.
We are giad to know that the name
the hat bears has not proven a barrier
to its sale. The shape was. designed
by a Southern man, who has gone
into business in New York with Steb
bins & William.
These hats are for sale at Mrs. C.

On Tuesday morning of last week
after some days illness Miss Ella Mid
dlebrooks departed this life at the
home of her father Judge Alfred Mid
dlebrooks near Juliett. The deceased
was a deautiful, faithful, loving,
daughter. Being in the bloom of
young life her death was indeed a
sad bereavement to this household.
Yet they should remember that this
sad affliction is a dispensation from
Him who doeth all things well. This is
another warning to young people that
they, as well as the old, must die, and
that they should be always prepared
to answer the summons of the death
angel. We tender to this bereaved
family our heat-felt sympathy. May
this sad affliction work out to them
eternal good.

Religious Serviees.
Services at the Methodist church
were continued through last week
and will be protracted through this
week. While there has been, during
the progress of the meeting, no great
outward demonstration of the good
results growing out of these services,
yet there is quite apparent,an under
current of religious sentiment taking
hold upon the people, audtlie earnest
prayers of every good man and wo
man is that under the blessing of
God these religious services may de
velop into great religious good to this
community. Rev. IT. II; Parks, the
l’resiiling Elder, laboredNvith us till
Friday morning, when duty called
him to another field. The various
sermons preached were pointed and
practical, and such as Redevelop re
ligious thought. Rev. S. R. England,
of West Monroe Circuit, filled the
pulpit last night and will be with us
this week.
At the Baptist church, Sunday
morning, Dr. Branham preached a
most impressive sermon from the
text, “ For we can do nothing against
the truth, but for the truth.” The
Doctor, in his forcible style, demon
strated that no effort against the
truth could be successful. That
though Paul, who wrote the words of
the text, did work against the truth of
the Bible before his conversion, yet
the spirit of God cut short this work
and turned his efforts towards propa
gating it, and he finally laid down his
life in its defense. The preacher suc
cessfully maintained from the history
ot the Bible that all efforts made to
destroy it, or alter it, had-failed. To
crush the truth was a moral impossi
bility. No other book had been so
successfully handed down from father
to sou. It had been preserved in its
entirety while others had passed out
of the memory of man. /After sus
taining these points, DA. could do
nothing success the
truth, hr,. “Wed
much for ft by embracing fthiffd living
it. The Christian was a witness for
tlie truth, in his walk and everyday
action, and all were exhorted to em
brace it, and carefully guard it, and
see to itjthat their lives did not hinder
its spread. There was no preaching at
this church at night, the congregation
desiring to worship with the Metho
dist brethren.
—
While at Cater’s, a few days since,
an old negro remarked: “ He’s got
it right now.” The old fellow was
talking about the stock.

Wiil I; Pay.’
That advertising will pay those who
advertise has been too fully proven by
hundreds and thousands of business
men of the present day, to admit of
doubt on the question. Indeed can
there be a man pointed out, whose
business depended for success upon
the patronage of tiie public, who has
succeeded without advertising? If
you would learn the great benefit to
be derived from publising your busi
ness to the would, go ask the business
men who have succeeded whether or
not they made known their business
to the public through the medium of
advertising? One of the most pros
perous business firms in Georgia ap
propriate, to advertising their busi
ness, annually $60,000, and this appro
priation has paid and is paying them
a handsome profit. Tell the people,
through advertising, what your busi
ness is, where you are, what you have
to sell them, how you propose to deal
with them, and invite them into your
place of business. Then they will
come. A short time ago a gen
tleman in this city wanted to pur
chase a certain article of property.
He made known that fact in a three
line local in the Advertiser, and in
one week lie had thirteen proposals
to sell him the property advertised for.
Thus by spending thirty cents, he had
the best choice from a lot of thirteen.
Did the advertisement pay him? lie
says so.

Tiiß Tariteys Foundi
On Monday of last week Col. B. S.
Willingham and Mr. Tom Goodrum
went down to the southern part of
this county, on the Tobesofkee creek,
on the hunt for wild turkeys which
were reported to have made that sec
tion their resort. Early Tuesday
morning they, discovered the where
yyiuc, wbon Mr. Good
'ruuisu(Wem'frTrr^TO’ppi the rum
blings of a fine gobbler which was
forwarded by that morning’s express
to Forsyth, and which weighed nine
teen pounds. The Colonel being
ambitious and gifted with the spirit of
emulation, determined to see 31 r.
Goodrum’s ‘‘anti” and go him “one
better.” So, early on Wednesday
morning, the Colonel having secured
a position on the hunting grounds
and spying the game, made the suc
cessful shot that always secures the
game, and bagged also a fine gobler
which lie did not trust to the express
company, but brought to town in it Is
wagon and which, when placed upon
scales, tipped the beam at twenty
pounds, thus balancing Mr. Good
rum’s gobbler, and going “one pound
better.”

3lr. Wm. G. England, father of
Rev. S. R. England, of West 3lonroe
Circuit, died at 3faysville, Ga., outlie
12th inst. He had reached an ad
vanced age, was ripe in the faith and
ready to be garnered to the skies.
Touching his death a special from
Union Point says:
Rev. S. It. England, of Goggans
ville, Monroe county, passed up the
road to-day en route to Oglethorpe
county, having been called thither
by a telegram announcing the death
of his father, 3Vm. G. England, at the
home of his son-in-law, 3H. Robert
Williams, of 3laysville, Ga. His re
mains were interred to-day at the
family burying ground in Oglethorpe
county. 3lr. England had lived in
Oglethorpe county from his birth,
and was at the time of his death in his
78th year. He had been a consistent
member of the 31ethodist church for
more than fifty years. He reared a
large family of children, and three of
his sons are members of the North
Georgia Conference. He was a fine
citizen and a consistent Christian.

There should be a farmer’s club in

Let her enviable position among her
sisterhood of over a hundred conties,
be maintained by pluck, progress,
and public spirit. The farmers around
here are behind none in successful
planting, and while quiet, earnest
progress is better than noisy parade,
yet it might be well for the commu

to contribute to the general stock of
agricultural knowledge and achieve

OLD HICKORY WAGONS.
3Vhich are the best sold in the market.
First because they will stand up under
more weight, and run lighter, than tho
corresponding size of any otner wagon
manufactured.
Second they are made ot the very best
Black Hickory and White Oak, that money
can buy, being manufactured at Louisville
Ky , the center of the finest hickory and oak
region, in the country.
Third they are the best ironed wagons in
the market. r lhe tires never become loose
1 here are forty, thousand of them in use in
the l nited States, and they gave perfect
substation in all cases.
Below we give a list of a few only who
hav e used these wagons, to whom we refer,
and we advise you to examine the “OLD

any other wagon and you will be convinced
that it is the best made and the most hand

31E 1 ALIC PAINT. Made especially for
roofs, and all rough outside woik. It is the
best paint made for tin or shingle roofs.
The action of water upon it does not effect
it like it does other paint. The elastic
body contracts and expands with tin or
other metal and will never crack or scale
oft. Ihe Central Railroad use it on their
ears, the Eagle and Phenix mills use it,
the large mills, at Dalton, are painted with
it, roofs at the Hotel in Forsyth are painted
with it. Messrs. J. /.Cater, Cyrus Sharp.
3V. T. Maynard, H. J. Land and a gaod
many around Forsyth have used it and its
the CHEAPEST PAINT in the market
to any one who contemplates painting this
summer, we invite them to see us, as wo
can make it to their interest.

Theatrical combinations arc
complaining to the interstate com
missioners, that, unless they be al
lowed reduced transportation, their
annual expenses will be increased
82,000,000 which is more than their
profits. If there were no theatrical
professionals, there would be no the
atergoers; and if not what would our
I country lose ?
