A Valuable iVorR.
Maj. M. P. Caldwell is now at work in
he preparation of his “Hand Book on
Practical Surveying.’ The book will be a
condensed but clear and practical treatise
on laud surveying, embracing instruments,
measurement, platting, area, dividing lands,
magnetic variation, duty of county surveyor,
with quite a number ot convenient and
useful tables. The major is the author of
“Caldwell’s Practical Arithmetic, ’ a popu
lar work that is now in its third edition and
constantly growing in public favor.
Going Away.
The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. A.
Van Hoose will be sorry to learn that they
will have Gainesville the first of January.
Mr. Van Hoose has received a very flattering
cal! to the Baptist church at Senoia, and
Mrs. Van Hoose will have a department in
the high school. While they feel it to their
interest to go, their hosts of friends here
regret that circumstances were not such as
to retain them among us. We are sure the
entire community join with us in wishing
them the highest measure of prosperity in
their new home.
Married.
At the residence of Mrs. S. Adair, ou the
23d ult , her daughter, Mattie S. Adair, to
Mr. James L 11. Barrett, by Dr. W. C.
Wilkes, Kev. Edward Barrett participating.
We congratulate the happy couple, and wish
them a prosperous, happy life. Several
bridal presents were presented.
Miss Mattie has always been a most popu
lar young lady in Gainesville society, and
we are sure our entire community will join
with us in the best wishes for the future of
the pair. This office is indebted to the
thoughtful courtesy of the family for a most
toothsome reminder of the joyous occasion.
The Gainesville Hotel.
This old and well known hostlerie has
been again leased for 1880, by Mr. C. A.
Hawkins, who will spare no pains to im
prove its management, ami make it more
popular than it has ever been before. Sit
uated immediately on the public square,
near all the business houses, it will al
ways control the bulk of transient travel.
Charley is a clever fellow, and keeps a hotel
like he does everything else, to the best of
his ability. It is to be entirely refitted and
furnished, so Mr. Hawkins informs us.
A Bear Hunt.
Will Haralson, the wild land clerk in the
comptroller general’s office, pa-sed through
the city a day or two since on his way back
from a Christmas trip up to the mountains.
He informed us that he and a friend Mr.
Hennesy went out bear hunting, o n Christ
mas day, in the mountains near Murphy N.
C., and succeeded in killing one large bear
weighing four hundred pounds and a small
cub.
Will says that it is rare fun, and he in
tends to make another trip up there, as soon
as he can get away.

Another Fire.
On last Saturday night the large two sto
ry residence on Oak street owned by Mrs.
Braselton, and ocupied at the time by Mrs.
Shockly took fire and was completely des
troyed, Mrs. Shockly losing nearly all her
furniture, bedding, wearing apparel and
household goods. The unseasonable hour
at which the fire occurred, 3 a. m., rendered
it impossible to get sufficient aid to extin
guish the flames, or save much of the furni
ture and effects. It is thought that the fire
must have originated from a stove pipe. We
have not been able to learn whether it was
insured.
“Bove Me, Darling.”
Ail singers and their “sisters and their
cousins and their aunts” will sing this
charming new song, written by I. Edward
Orchard and just published by our great
southern music house. Why ? Because not
one new' song out of a thousand is so pleas
ing, and its popularity is only a question of
time. In sentiment, melody and harmony,
it satisfies both singer and hearer, and once
heard will be called for over and over again.
For soprano or tenor. Easy accompani
ment. Elegant title page. Ask your music
dealer for it, or send 40 cents to the pub
lishers, Ludden A Bates, Savannah, Ga.
The Lallatte Select School
We invite attention to the advertisement
of this Institution of learning in another
column which announces the opening of the
spring term on the 19th inst. Quite a largo
number of pupils are already entered,
enough to assure the success of the enter
prise. Prof. Wilson will remsin in charge
of his old department, and Professor Fisher,
the well known music instructor will con
tinue with Mr. LaHatte.
The Professor has rented the old Davis
homestead, and is now engaged in putting
it in repair, and completing all necessary
arrangements for making it fully adapted to
the purpose intended.
Chiidnun Week.
We have never seen our citizens seeming
ly enjoy the festivities better than during
the week just passed. Gifts were liberally
bestowed, fun and amusement reigned su
preme for the time. The boys enjoyed
their fire-crackers, the young men the fan
tastics, the Sunday schools the supper, the
Santa Claus box and the tree, each with its',
special pleasure and attraction, the older
citizen the turkey dinner with invited
guests, the young folks the receptions and
sociables, the laborer rest from his labors
and the printer from his case. Thus, in
every department of life, there seems to be
general satisfaction and prosperity, and we
congratulate our citizens ou so pleasant a
close of the old year and favorable opening
of the new.
Chniigc of Firm.
As will be seen by an announcement in
another column, the well known and popu
lar firm of Smith A Jenkins has been dis
olved by mutual consent, Mr. Snith the sen
ior of the old firm, purchasing the entire
interest of Mr. Jenkins, and that gentleman
retiring.
We are sorry that this change will result
in our losing Mr. Jenkins as a citizen, it be
ing his intention, soon to remove to At
lanta, and at an early day enter business in
that city. While this is true, however we
congratulate our selves upon the tact, that
Mr. Smith will continue to conduct the
large and prosperous; business, which they
have always enjoyed, and which we are
sure ho will deserve as much as the old
firm.
In giving up Mr. Jenkins we can but bear
witness, to the sterling business qualities,
and gentlemanly bearing which has ever
chaiacterized his dealings with all with
whom lie came in contact, and wo wish him
the fullest moasuie of prosperity in his new
house.
Furniture. Stoves, Tinwai-e and House-
Furnishing Guoil;.
Unless they have themselves gone through
the establishment and seen with what it is
filled, there are doubtless many people in
the section whose trade ot right belongs to
Gainesville who have no idea of the facilities
which we have for supplying every demand
of the housekeeper. A glance through only
one department of the immense store of
Mr. John A. Smith, successor to the late
firm of Smith A Jenkins, on yesterday, con
vinced us that there is no necessity for our
people to go away from home for anything.
His stock of furniture is complete. Parlor
furniiure, chamber suits, spring mattresses,
cotton mattresses, sideboards, safes, dining
tab es, chairs, lounges, etc., etc., too tedious
to mention, are found in great variety. In
stoves their assortment is complete, and at
prices that leave no cause for cavil. Ho hrs
also a tinshop attached to his establishment,
where every description of goods in that
li :o is manufac.urcd under his own roof,
and consequently his stock is always full
and complete, and any special line of work
can be manufactured to order on short no
tice. Hardware and potware of all kinds,
iron, nails, blacksmiths’ tools, plows, hoes
and farm implements of every description,
are kept constantly in stock—in short, any
thing and everything that can possibly be
needed by the farmer, the gardener, the
housekeeper or anybody else, can be found
here. Low prices prevail in every depart
ment, and courteous and attentive salesmen
are always ready to attend to the wants of
customers. It is in every respect a model
establishment.
A Lmly's Wish.
“Oh, how I do wish my skin was as clear
and soft as yours,” said a lady to her friend.
“You can easily make it so,” answered the
friend. “How ?” inquired the first lady.
“By using Hop Bitters, that makes pure
rich blood and blooming health, it did it
for me, as you observe.” Bead of it.
A PAIR OF THEM.
Two Candidates for the House that
Jack Built.
When o’d sin fairly unbuckles its harness,
gives itself full room and determines to
gallop off' to the bad with a man, it is really
astonishing the number of ways it can find
to accomplish its purpose. It broke loose
up at Bellton on Christmas eve. It seized
upon one Mr. Thomas Hughes, and Mr.
Cicero Mathews, "and put all sorts of wick
edness into their pair of heads. In the
darkness of Christmas eve night they pro
ceeded to break into two or three stores and
rifle them ot divers and sundry contents.
The next day they took their way down
toward Gainesville, and Christmas night, to
relieve an old grudge against Mr. William
Emmett, about two and a half miles from
town, broke into his bouse, he and his fam
ily being absent, shot his clock to pieces,
ripped open his beds, smashed his crockery
ware, shot his cow, and devastated the
premises generally. They then went on
down to Mr. Henry Clark’s, against whom
they also had a spite on account of a recent
difficulty, stole !wo of his horses and left
for parts unknown
Os course it was not at first known that
all this chapter of crime was chargeable to
the same parties, but it was shrewdly sus
pected, inasmuch as they had been seen
about Bellton, were known to have a spite
at Emmett and Clark, and the transactions
following so close upon each other. Meas
ures were set on foot promptly for the ap
prehension of the perpetrators, and various
parties were scouring the country in every
direction.
On Saturday, Mr. Joe Fowler saw a cer
tain woman, with whom it was known the
suspected parties were intimate, get on the
up train at Belltou. He also boarded the
train, shrewdly suspecting that she was on
her way to join them at some appointed
rendezvous. His conjecture was right, and
just before the train reached Longview he
was rewarded by seeing the men by the side
of the track, where they had stepped off to
a,llow the train to pass them. He went on i
up to the station, borrowed a guu and came
on back to meet them. They met in a cut,
and he remarked to them that he could not
turn back, and if they attempted to run he
would certainly shoot them. He then made
them give up theii pistols, arrested and
brought them to Bellton.
On Saturday, they had a commitment
trial before C. K. Faulkner, Esq., at Bell
ton and were committed to jail to await
their t.ial before the next term of the supe
rior court, and brought down to Sheriff
Gaines’ hotel on Saturday night. Wo are
informed that they have confessed the facts
substantially as above.
They had turned loose Mr. Clark’s horses
before they were captured, and they have
since been recovered.
Hughes is said to be from Union county,
and Mathews has been living in Banks for
some time past.

Positive Results.
There are numerous remedies that cure
sometimes and become trusted as useful, but
none have ever proved so effectual—cured
to many and such renaerkable eases—as Dr.
Ayer’s medicines.
The cherry pectoral has restored great
numbers of patients who were believed to
be hopelessly affected with consumption.
Ague cure breaksj up chills and fever
quickly and surely.
Ayer’s compound extract of sarsaparilla
eradicates scrofula and impurities of the
blood, cleanses the system and restores i
to vigorous health. By its timely use many
troublesome disorders that cause a decline
of health are expelled or cured.
Ayer’s pills and their effects are too well
known everywhere to require any recom
mendation from us here.— Scranton (Pa.)
