Don’t fail to attend the concert to morrow night. Blumenfield’s violin will richly repay you. 'Die concert to-morrow night will be the finest ever heard in Gainesville. Ad mission 50 cents; school children 25 cents. What will be the programme for New Year’s day? Some of the young men are in favor of receiving and letting the ladies call. Bud Smith has just received a choice lot Raisins, Dates,Prunes, Maliga Grapes, Florida Oranges and other choice dried and fresh fruits. The Social Club met at Dr. Daniels, on Monday night, and was one of the most enjoyable evenings spent since it has been organized. A heavy rain set in last night and it still rains as we go to press. The prob ability is that when it clears up we will have some winter weather. We have had none as yet. The democrats of Hall county have made as good or better record than those of any county in the state. We are sorry to say that the democracy of some other connties of the 9th district have not come up to the full measure of their duty. It is seldom that the grass is as grpen and the Howers as bright in this section, this late in the autumn, as they are now. Vegetation, with the exception of forest and shade trees and a few other classes of plants, looks almost as fresh as in midsummer. Our people have been so engrossed with the fair and the election for the past week, that they have failed to furn ish the usual number of locals. We must confess that we have but little heart, just at this time to work, for we are awfully’ demoralized, and this accounts for their scarcity. Messrs. J. E. Murphy & Co. present an array of figures to-day, showing that they arc selling many articles much low er than ever before. Look at their large advertisement and sec for yourselves what great inducements they are offering. In many things prices are reduced nearly | one-half. We notice that a large sewer from the west eml of Spring street, through the Presbyterian church lot, leading into the ravine beyond the Gainesville and Dah lonega railroad, is being put in, in a very substantial manner by Street Overseer Alexander. This improvement has been long needed. We print in this issue a poem by Mrs. 11. W. J. Ham, of this city, “Autumn Lines.’’ This beautiful little gem ap peared in the Constitution a few weeks ago, but contained some errors, which have been corrected by the author. We regard it as equal to anything Dumas or Folsom has written. The express office has been removed to the new building, lately erected next door to Camp Bro.’s livery stable, and Mr. A. B. C. Dorsey, our efficient burial director, now occupies the room vacated by it, on Spring street, opposite Messrs. PaJmonr A Smith’s warehouse, and next door to the Eagle office. Miss Gay, who is soliciting funds for the Alexander If. Stephens monument, has been in the city’ several days. We regret to learn that she has not been as successful in this commendable cause as she should have been. We hope that after the excitement of the election is passed she may do better. It is not often that this section fails to have a killing frost before the middle of ; November. The trees could not wait for it and have shed nearly all their leaves: vegetables have kept on growing, however, and many of our citizens are still gathering new Irish potatoes, fresh tomatoes, snap beans, raddishes, lettuce, etc., from their gardens. Mr. Peter McDcrmed attended the fair at Athens, Tuesday and Wednesday. He > reports that everything was moving on j finely up to the time he left. Os course I the rain to-day will seriously.interfere j with the program, which we very much regret. We hope, however, that the Northeast Georgia Fair will be a great success, rain or no rain. The crowds that assembled in front of ; the telegraph office last Tuesday’ night, watching the bulletins as they were shown from a front window, would cause cheer or groan as the news was favorable or unfavorable to the democracy. It was really interesting and often ludicrous to watch the excitement and hear the remarks made while the dispatches were coming in. Now that the fair ami the election are over, wo hope our country correspon dents will not forget us, but will send in communications from every part of the county ami district. Let us hear from you, as our readers are always glad to see what you have to say about your respective neighborhoods. We don’t need essays, we want short, crisp items of news anil neighborhood gossip. Messrs. Bagwell A- Gower, of the ex tensive wagon, buggy and carriage fac tory of Flowery Branch, are out in a card which will no doubt attract attention. This is one of the most prosperous and growing industries in Northeast Georgia. It is wonderful what progress this live firm has made in the last few years. They are turning out splendi 1 work, and their business is constantly increasing. See their new advertisement. Knimelt —.Tlonlgainery. Married, at the residence of the bride’s father, Mr. Elias Montgomery, in this city, on Sunday, the 4th inst., by James Clarke, Esq., Mr. James Emmett to Miss Angie Montgomery. No cards. Bud Smith keeps a first-class restau rant, and don’t you forget it. He serves square meals and oysters in every style, and you can always get a nice bowl of soup and cup of cotfee. Mr. Wiley Quillian, one of the most prominent citizens of our county, who had his leg broken last winter, and who has been on crutches ever since, came in to attend the fair last week. Full of public spirit he went home, and told his tenants and employers to hitch up all the teams on the place and come to the fair, which most of them did; then al most by himself he undertook to run his store, cotton gin and farm, and thus brought on himself a slight stroke of paralysis. We are glad to learn, how ever, that his condition is not very serious, and that with the faithful atten tion he is receiving from his family phy sician and the nursing of his devoted fam ily and neighbors that he will soon be restored to health and probably be spared many more years. All kinds of Nuts, Black and English Walnuts, Brazil Nuts, Almonds, Phil berts and others of various kinds may always be found at Bud Smith’s. 1 , There has been a considerable number of bets made here on the election, but they have generally been small. Many of the boys are nevertheless greatly ex cited and manifest anxiety about the returns on that account. We regret to see this reprehensible practice kept up throughout the country. It is very wrong and has a tendency to not only corrupt the morals of the people, but to jeopardise the purity of the ballot box. It has become a custom, however, for people to bet on elections, yet it is to be hoped that the time will come when it will be more honored in the breach than in the observance. When you want splendid fruits, such as oranges, apples, lemons, bananas, etc., call at Bud Smith’s. He always keeps the best and sells them low. Prixouiil Ileum. Messrs. Beiman, Nield and Baldwin, of Walhalla, S. C., attended our fair. Miss Maggie Basinger and sister, of Dahlonega, stopped over in town a few hours Saturday, on their way to the fair in Athens. Mrs. W. 11. Campbell has returned home from a week’s visit to her relatives in Atlanta; also attended the debut of her niece at Mr. A. D. Adair’s. But few young ladies have made more friends and become so popular with both the young and old people of our city as Miss Ida Evans, during the past year. Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds Poole, of War renton, Ga., spent last week in our city and took in the fair. They were guests of their old friend, Capt. T. 11. P. Wright, of the Hudson House. Mr. John B. Ware, a Gainesville boy, but now a resident of Birmingham, Ala., is visiting our city' and is heartily greeted by his many friends. He has his bright little two yfear old boy with him. Miss Clara Abbott, one of Duluth’s most charming belles, has been visiting Miss Kate Worley during the past week. She has a large number of friends here, who always give her a hearty welcome to our town. Mr. W. A. Russell, of Detroit, Mich., has been sojourning here for several weeks, and is so charmed with our fine climate and water, that he speaks of locating here permanently. We hope he will conclude to do so. Mi'. J. U. Ansley and lady, of Augusta, are spending some time in Gainesville and are the guests of Mrs. Langston, on Spring street. They have made many pleasant acquaintances in our city, and express themselves as having had a pleasant time. Mr. W. G. Whidby, of the Franklin Printing Co., of Atlanta, who spent last week here taking in and writing up the fair for the Evening Journal, paid the Eagle otlice several very pleasant visits. Our people are indebted to Mr. Wh idby, and the live journal lie represented, for mally kind and complimentary notices. Mr. A. W. Latimer, of the Lumpkin Independent, who spent the past three weeks in our city for his health, left for borne last Monday. Mr. Latimer received great benefit from our fine air and water-, and expressed himself as greatly pleased with Gainesville and her people. He made many friends and formed many pleasant acquaintances while with us. Mr. Frank Armstrong, the live com mercial agent of the celebrated grocery manufacturers and tea dealers, Dodson A llils. of .st. Louis, has been in the city a fe w days, visiting his family, who re side here. Mr. Armstrong is a great favor ite with our people, and his visits home are always hailed with real pleas ure by his hosts of friends. - Bud Smith still ahead in the way of good things. He keeps the best and largest variety of cakes, candies and sweetmeats ever kept in Gainesville. « -» “The Morning Gkeetixg” is the title of the premium engraving which Peter son’s Magazine oilers as a club premium for 1889. It is very beautiful, and in a style entirely different from any of pre ceding years. The background shows a picturesque cottage and landscape, and in front stands a lovely girl surrounded by the dumb pets of the farm. It is from a painting by a celebrated artist and is a gem. Another premium will lie “Buds and Blossoms.” a volume of orig inal and selected poems, handsomely bound and profusely illustrated with beautiful steel aud wood engravings. It is decidedly the most perfect gift book ever offered by any magazine. Another premium is a year’s subscription to the Magazine. The leading newspapers pro nounce ••Peterson’’ equal in literary point of view to the highest priced periodicals, and as a fashion guide far ahead of any of the lady’s books. It has some of America’s most popular authors among its contributors. It has numerous excel lent wood illustrations, and its fancy and household departments are unrivalled.

The brown autumnal days are come, the glad dest of the year, We have planted, we have labored, now the harvest time is here, If the flowers have departed, and the leaves are in the sere We can garner in the fruitage, we can till our hearts with cheer. If we cannot hear the music of the sweet bird’s roundelay We can tree-the luscious ’possum, and be “hap py all the day,” And if the breath of Boreas strikes every flower down, It sweetens the persimmons, and with nuts it strews the ground. He'll kiss the ’tater and the ‘punkins’ as he noisily goes by, And for music of the birdies he will give us ‘punkin’ pie; And the glorious sugar cane, how it proudly waves and nods, As if conscious that its sweetness was a feast tit for the gods. And the goobers! Oh, the goobers! was there ever such a treat? How the solous love to munch them, when to make our laws they meet. The barns with corn are bursting—with fra grant hay the mow, The butter is all golden, and the porkers, how they grow! But over all these treasures, we crown Old Cot ton king, For to our empty pockets be will the lucre bring, And oh, thou crisp autumnal day, thy beauty is divine, And we’ll always chant thy praises as we pluck the muscadine. ***# * * ' * Os the springtime and the summer let the Muses gladly sing, But to thee, O royal autumn, we will all our tribute bring, And we’ll revel in thy blessings ’till Old Win ter’s angry blast Lays thee ’neath his snowy mantle, and we’ll love thee to the last.

Below we publish extracts taken from various papers complimentary to Prof. Sternberg, who will give a concert in Bailey Chapel to-morrow (Friday) evening. All who attend will enjoy a rich treat: Sternberg is undoubtedly a great pianist and a musician of most re markable genius, etc.—New York Herald. With the first chord Mr. Stern berg sent forth from the piano the master of the instrument bad mani fested himself. This quiet repose— so different from phlegma -revealed at once to the listener that a man stood before him who is “above the situation.'’ Sternberg’s playing makes one forget that the manipulation of the piano must be learned; it is so natural, so unassuming, that the ad miration of his skill soon wears out to give room for the most sincere enjoyment.—American Art Journal. Sternberg ranks among the very, very fewTeil great pianists of the present and yet, his marvellous play ing constitutes but a small portion of his multiform capacities. He is equally great as a conductor, teacher, composer (we hardly need to men tion this) and essayist; his education, his knowledge, his information in all branches of science, his linguistic gifts (he speaks and writes no less than nine languages) are something wonderful, etc.—Keynote. Over hill and valley, over land and sea the listening throng has to follow this wonderful man, wherever his fancy directs them and they follow him willingly and irresistibly. He draws his magic circle around his hearers and holds them, as it were, under a spell as long as he is at the piano; and with a sigh of regret the listener awakes to reality when Sternberg leaves his instrument.— Cincinnati Gazette. Such pianists as Sternberg are not made, they are born; he is really not a pianist; when he plays he music” and keyboard, pedals, fingers —all is forgotten. Music alone reigns supreme.— Berlin “Kreuz-Zeitung” (Europe). Sternberg is a boin “moment mu sical!’-’ Ln listening to his playing one can, with the best of will, not think that he had to learn all that; he impresses his auditor as if “he simply sat down and played.”— Schlesische Zeitung (Europe). The playing of Mr. Constantin Sternberg was a most profound reve lation to our public; it showed at last that the piano is not a mere cir cus ground, destined to serve for tricks and mechanical skill (althou’gh Sternberg has certainly no superior in the latter) but an instrumental agent in imparting the most delight ful sentiments of all orders and de grees. The public however was not short in appreciation; their ap plause rose instantaneously to a per fect oration; and artist and public could thus be satisfied with each other.—San Francisco Argonaut. II The shooting of a man by a dbg may at first be thought an incredible occurrence, but such a thing is repor ted from Montgomery, Ala. It ap pears that Frank Whitlock, a colored man, went out hunting near Searcy station, accompanied by his dog and, after imbibing a good deal pf whisky in the course of bis wanderings, he laid down and went to sleep. His gun was placed, cocked hammer fac ing him. Old Tray, the dog, was wide awake ami tried to arouse the sleeper in a rather noisy way. lie struck his paw on the trigger, and the gun went off, discharging its contents in Frank’s body and inflict ing serious, if not fatal, wounds.
