l>eutli of i»r. Moore.
For many years Dr. John R.
Moore has been a lending citizen
in our town and county. As a
man of public spirit, lie was at.
ways ready to aid in public enter
prises that promised benefit to
the community in which he lived.
As a Christian he was regarded as
one of the pillars of the Aiethodist
Church, of which he had been a
member for thirty years. As a
physician he was kind and htr
inaae, andasa neighbor he was
obliging and sociable,always ready
'o aid distress with his wannest
sympathy.
He was a remarkably stout man
for his years, and it has only been
a few weeks since he was upoo
the streets looking like he had
many years in store for him, bui
when he was stricken wi'h the
disease that terminated his life, he
seemedto have a presentiment that
his time lmd come, and announced
to his friends that he could net re
cover.
lie died on Thursday the 90»h.
inst. and his remains were follow,
ed to the Church, where the funer
id services were conducted, hy
nearly the entire town, who desir.
ed to pay this last respect to a
good man and citizen. The servi
ces were conducted by Rev. M\
Dodge and King of the dVethodisj
aud Dr. McClelland of the Presby
terian Church.
He leaves au aged widow ard
two sons as all of his immediate
family to mourn the loss of fathei
and husband, but they have the
consolation of feeliug hat the en
ire connnuniiy sympathise with
them in their affliction, aud that
he fought the good fight and kept
ihe faith to the end.

Hear Sir—Having ju ß t return
ed from the city of Macon, width
or I had gone a w i«k »go in at
tand the Grand Lodgo of Geor
gia, and also ihe State Fair, i c |
session at the same time, l gi V 6
you a brief account of each.
Ihe Grand Lodge was opened
** 10 a. m. on Tuesday, with
Grand Master Davidson as Grand
Mas'er, Reuben Jones as Grand
Senior Warden, J H Eetill aa Hen
ior Grand Warden and abouf two
hundred delegates from the sub
ordinate lodges of this jurisdiction
Grand Master Davidson, who I
»>aw for the first lime, is an ele
gant gentleman and presided with
case and grace over the
tions of the Grand Lodge. He so
impressed me that, Without hesita
tiou, 1 decide that he is the prop
er man for preenleut of the Senate
soon t% assenibl 3,
R W Reuben Jones fills the
Grand Wes t ably and is fully ac
quainted with his responsible du
ties. R W Col Estil/, who you
well know as President of ihe
Press Association, impressed me
most fa vo T abiy. A gentleman of fine
personal, of kindly face, not very
fluent but sensible, aud fills *ue
Sou/li admirably. These three
were re-elecied to their present sta
tious, and a w : se choice was made
Much business all
in greaf harmony.
Years have intervened since 1
used to aifaud the Grand Lodge,
and but few of its old membets
met my eye on this occasion;
Lawrence, Love, Mayor Lewis ana
a few oihers I met in ante-bellum
times; Dawson, Rockwell. Rose
and otners have "passed to that
bowrne from whence no traveler
returns.”
Its session was closed at high
twelve on Thursday and gav* me
the nfttmoon to see the fair.
A complimentary ticker furnish
ed uie by our fellow citizen, Col.
Geo H Jones, who is an officer of
the society, and in charge of th*
gales, admitted me to the fair
grounds.
Wit! out giving det« : ls, I pro
nounce the fair a success. The
stock display was better than I
had seen. Jersey cattle wer® out
in full force—a splendid array At
the auction of Jerseys it surprised
me at the higk prices they bro’t.
The Jersey "boom’' is still a
“boom.’’
Toe horse disp/ay, which I did
not have time to see, was said to
he splendid. All other depart
ments were respectable. Tle trot
ing matches „wmch I witnessed
witnessed, were good and quite
excitable
“Brothel,” Gtier, the Secretary
of the Society is the Boanergies of
,‘he Georgia Agricultural Society
He is emphatically the ligLt man
ia 'h-. righi place. A brief per
sonal description of him might
not he out of place here.
He is an old North Carolina
Whig, and had a personal inter
view with tfoury Clay, when he
was a college bay at Raleigh, N
C, in 1844. The little person. i
in'erview with the great statesman
will O'* g *3n in his memory foriv
above his compeers, but brings to
him, in his deportmeu', no superi
orilyover his friends of nnaller d,
mansions, for whom he has a
good smile and cordial greeting at
all times. While an 6ld Line
Whig, of which he boas/s, he is u
g_>od democrat now, and offers his
best prayers for ‘he success of
Cleveland and Hendricks.
The Mate Agricultural Society
could not do wi’hout “Brother
°rier, and this is the universal ver
diet.
Thursday was the great day of
the fair, and au immense crowd
gathered at its grounds. The ci y
was full to ov. rflowing, and Africa
was out in full force to see the
circus then on exhibition rather
than the fair. Africa hss a pas
sion for the circus and will give
his last nickle to see the show.

A very nice legal question L
likely to arise liei wean so"ie of the
citizens of this County aud De-
Ixalh. A nnm be>- of districts in
the la ter County have adopted the
Stockfow. Miey claim that
as they are in a different "conn’y
the law does not require them to
fence against Twiunett slock, but
that they will unpoond all stock
crossing the dead lice. The Gwln
nest men claim they are not bound
to keep then stock out ei these
districts us the law requires each
district to fence it elf that adopts
the stocklaw. The courts will
probably have to settle the ques
tion.
