fact that we are carrying this large

1<> the advertpmiient <>1 the county I
eoniini->■ loin rs in this paper touching
tins law. One district in the county j
lias already ratified said law, and
others are petitioning for its ratifica¬
tion. Tin- Act is so worded as that
it does imi J aM-onii 1 a law of force un
t IT rati lied l>y the voters of the county,
or by the voters of any one district.
That is, it can be tnudt* of force in tiny
one district in the county or in all
the districts of the county. Now to
ratify said Act in one district in the
county at a time, and in this way to
ratify it in all the districts of the
county, will cost (lie county over
fill), whereas, if all the districts in
the county will act. together or in
concert in ratifying said act, it will
only cost the county between ten and
twenty dollars. Because, if the peti¬
tions from all the districts are filed
with the Ordinary at the same time,
then one order and one advertisement
will suffice for the whole.
I lenee, if each dist rift in the county
intends to have a vote on tins Act, it
will be much to the interest of the
tax-payers of the county to have the
election on this question at the same
time.
In this connection we state, for the
information of those who may con¬
template taking action in the matter,
that from the time of tiling the peti¬
tion, it requirers about forty days to
perfect the requisite notice fur said
fleet Sou.

were not so numerous as crowd might have

was productive of some merriment.
Prof. W. J. Noves, having downed
all the other spellers, captured the
first prize, while .Miss Annie Smith
bore away the second prize. We sug
gest that a regular spelling bee for
Forsyth would be, not only a source
of much social enjoyment, but of lit¬
erary who improvement and benefit to ail
would patronize, or take part in
the same. Indeed, properly conduct¬
ed, it would prove a good educator of
orthography, from and might develope,
among orthogoraphist our young people, more
than one and etymolo¬
gist, of which class there is a much less
number among our people than the
general public are inclined to believe.

About 10 o’clock Saturday morning
the lire alarm was sounded, a re¬
sponse to which discovered that the
ginnery of Mr. E. Z. Pharr near the
public square was on fire. Prompt
action upon the part of the fire com
pany and a good bucket brigade soon
extinguished the flames and stopped
file lire
From the best evidence obtainable,
the fire was caused by a match pass¬
ing through tne elevator used for
unloading wagons. This conclusion
is drawn from the fact that the firefirst
developed in the stall into which the
cotton that was being taken from
a This wa gon was emptied by the elevator.
is another serious warning
that all persons handling cotton
should he careful not to handle or t-o
have matches about their person
when handling it. Serious loss is
often entailed by the careless hand¬
ling of a single match.
From its place of beginning, the
fire quickly spread to the lint room
where lint cotton was accumulating
from the gin, and at one time the
surroundings tion of building indicated the destruc¬
the and machinery.
But owing to timely and rapid work
the fire was soon extinguished with
only very slight damage to the build¬
ing, and not much damage to the cot¬
ton therein -
As we have said before, so we ’say
again,to every body,black and white,
that picks cotton or handles cotton in
any way, it is prudent and a safe plan
never to when"handling h:jye matches the about your
person same.

Fors»j(!i'* Cemetery.
The woik done on our cemetery last
spring added very much to its appear¬
ance and spoke well for us who are
the.guardians and custodians of the
same. But the present appearance of
things in and about the cemetery is
evidence that that working was not
destined to last always.
Now that the sombre season of the
year is upon us, neglect of this home
of the dead gives it quite a gloomy
aspect. An inspection of the walks
and grounds in ai d about the ceme¬
tery indicates that a little needed
work there now would not only not be
out of place, but would add somewhat
to the looks of things thereabout. As
the season for collecting taxes is now
here, the city’s exchequer is doubtless
sufficiently plethoric to warrant some
needed work upon the cemetery. A
well kept cemetery is a commenda¬
tion to any people who are the custo¬
dians thereof.

Pave Tiiem With Sim-k.
There are several principal stieet
crossings in tha city that arc, in wet
weather, anything but pleasant to
pedestrians. We commend the ef¬
forts of our city fathers in trying to
keep these crossings in a passable
condition. But owing to the fact that
they are constantly being crossed
with loaded vehicles, buggies, carri¬
ages, &c., they cannot be kept so
with nothing but dirt as a foundation.
Hffiice, we suggest, as we have done
before, that all such crossings in the
city be paved with large flat rock, a
sufficiency of which is attainable, and
then these places can be kept passable
in any and all kinds of weather.
Considering the light appropriation
necessary for this purpose, the paving
of these crossings in this way would
certainiy meet the commendation of
every tax-payer in the city
I am prepared to lend money on
improved farms, on better terms
than ever before offered.

Mr. Editor :—1 noticed in your
paper of the 13th inst. that White
Ox was making inquiries about Phil¬
ip, Kit and others.
1 think that old Ox had some
people down fine, but I am anxious
to know what he thinks about the
school question, that has been so
thoroughly discussed through your
columns.
Weil, not having time to find the
Ox to get his views on the subject, I
will by your permission make a
statement as to how 1 think matters
stand. After carefully reducing the
different articles to their lowest terms
1 will say that 1 think they are as
follows: I. R. B. 98 32 100, W. J.
N. 84 29-100, B. I). S. 72, J. .J. C.
69 85-100, Vox, 77 3-10, Progress, 87
4-32.
If you find I have made a mis¬
take in the calculation, I trust that
you will give each man, or his next
friend, the right of correct’ng.
Willis Morrison says that Mose
Potts like to have lost his mind, try¬
ing to find out who White Ox was.
Uncle Willis says he has, for several
years, followed such fool things as
that and it liked to have broke him.
Col. C. O. Goodwyno, Attorney
f or {D, e Monroe county Fanners’ Alli
anee, was at ... tne station , .• to-day , , and ,
actually wanted lien can, the conduc
tor on the fast mail, tostop the train
long enough for him to make one of
tho T e short speeches of his. The
eonhucror d.d Charley wrong; bo

Charley, game as he is,determined to
make the speech, and the boys said
that they could hear him as he passed
along tho road' making earnest ap¬
peals to John Collier, Bartow Wil¬
son and others to stand up, and
make the fight like old Brownlow did
in Tennessee in former days.
I honestly believe that Charly O.
G. thinks that the alliance will
eventually control the Central as
«-ed « 011 as the the state state rmd road. The 1 lie time time is is
not iar distant when the ordinary
attornoy will have to say that the
click spring is broken, and there
vviil be no farther use for the form

i Charly O. G. should be , informed

that Julia Inman i.s the boss; ho
drew a check on the 15th for $3,950,
000, the last pa} T rnent. This was
not demanded, but done in order
that Inman should not be out-gen -
crated hy Charly O. G. which ho
knew would be a sure thing, if the
last payment was not made on or
before the 15th.
You know, Mr. Inman knows the
thought of Col. Charly O. G., attor¬
ney for the Alliance, long headed as
he is. lie saw Col. Charly O. G.
climbing after him and was under
obligation to the stockholders not to
allow the road to pass into the
hands of Col. Charly O. G., attor¬
ney for the Alliance.
Well, I only hope that I can do as
Col. Charly O. G. did—make John
Inman hand in his checks.

Of curing habitual constipation, and
liver and kidney ills, is to avoid the
use of the bitter drastic liver medi¬
cines and cathartics, and to take only
the pleasant liquid fruit remedy,
Syrup of Figs. It cleanses as well as
strengthens trie system, and does not
leave the bowels costive, so that reg¬
ular habits may be formed, and the
invalid permanently restored to
health. It acts promptly and effec¬
tively ; it is easily taken, and perfectly
harmless.
