They have, as cotton buy ers, been of great benefit to Marietta and to the farmers of this section. They bought more cotton this last season than any firm in Marietta, which shows that they paid the top of the market prices or they could not have done so. We cheerfully commend them to our farmers as honorable, upright business men, who will treat them fairly and squarely in all transactions. See advertisement, : —For Casi.—Mrs. C. C.

Patronize home and call on Messrs. Reid & Gramling when you want a carriage, buggy or wagon, and they will give you something that will prove satisfactory. —L.

With the best of workmen they can give the ut most satisfaction in the erection of buildings of any description equal to the best in finish and elegance. Enterprising and wide-awake to the demands of the times, and all they ask is a trial and they feel confident of giv ing satisfaction. —W. E. Gilbert's trade in furniture, clothing and dry goods has proved highly satisfactory the past year, the people ap preciating low prices and good goods.

His stock of furniture is unexcelled in variety, finish and style, and is kept constantly replenished. In clothing he can suit you if anybody can, while his dry goods department will com pare favorably with the best. Call and see for yourselves and be convinced. —We regret to learn that Dr. T. S.

This great musical genius will appear at Nichols' Hall next Tuesday night, 10th inst. It is almost needless for us to speak of ‘Blind Tom to Marietta people. His wonder ful performances on the piano are familiar to ithem. He never fails to have a large audi ence when visiting here, and on next Tues day night the hall will Le crowded. There is some soul-stirring and captivating music in Tom's manipulation of the keys, whose im itative faculty is largely developed, and he repeats any piece of unusic played in e hearing accurately, even to the" discords, His many musical eccentricities and varia l tions makes his entertainments pleasing and interesting. Don't fail to go. MISS LULU HURST. Mystery of Mysteries. Miss Hurst gave her second performance in Marietta on last Tuesday night. Nichols’ Hall was crowded until its seating capacity was exhausted. The people were curious as well as incredulous and wanted to see for themselves a display of a force by a timid, | pretty girl, which whirled men about regard less of posture or strength. We have heretofore given in these col umns a lengthy description of this unknown and unknowable force; we could not ex plain it then and we can not do so now. We only know that she has such force in un measured quantity, beyond human ken to perceive or human mind to comprehend. It is astounding to one's senses to know where this mystic force reposes, which you feel communicated by the simple touch of Miss Hurst's palms and finger tips, making things inanimate pulsate and quiver. with life and strength. To a limited extent we tested her power, and we were clearly convinced that there was no trick ot legerdemain or muscu lar exertion on her part. When one took hold of the chair, embracing it with a strong determination to hold it, it was gentle as a zephyr, but as soon as Miss Lulu touched it, it soon became a raging cyclone, growing stronger and stronger, until the chair be came surcharged with such a quantity of vitality, one lost his equilibrium and went floundering and dancing over the stage in the wildest confusion. The effort of some half a dozen men to hold and press to the floor a chair in mid air, proved an impossibility to the extent of their combined physical strength. The in animate object had an irresistible tendency upwards all the time. An umbrella and a stick were brought into requisition, but they only added to the mystery in the feats that “Laughing Lulu” so successfully performed. The audience was kept amused and en joyed the entertainment with many hearty laughs.. During an intermission,the polite and gen tlemanly manager, Mr, Atkinson, gave a very pleasing recitation. At the conclusion Mr. Hurst made a few remarks as to the in ability of eminent physicians and scientists to solve or make. lucid to a reasonable cer tainty the source of this marvelous force, bat all efforts at investigation have been baf flled as completely as athletes have been routed. As to whether Miss Lulu has the power to call up spirits from the vasty deep to aid her in her repelling force, is some thing she is not conscious of, and father and daughter scout the idea of spiritualism. They neither attribute it to electricity or magnetism ; they only know that sometimes it is treacherous in its exertions and will not do on some occasions what it has done on others. It certainly baffles science and philosophy and leaves one as much bhewild ered as ever, and the question still remains: “What is it ?” But one thing it is doing beyond disputa tion—it is filling Miss Lulu’s exchequer with a power that sways the world—for money is as potent a factor in-the social as the com mercial world. FURMAN'S FORMULA. ———— el PP e . TOWN TALK. —Gardens are being ploughed and planted. —Mr. T. H.

He has just added to his herd four registered Jerseys, bought of Mr. R. H. Richards, of Atlanta, and they are beauties. His barn, cowsheds, hogpens and pastures are complete, and his systematic ideas would be well for many of our farmers to adopt. Go over and see for yourselves, —Mr. Tom Brumby moved into his new home last week. —Mr. Warrick, of Washington Territory, is at the Kennesaw House. —Quite a large party went down on Mon day and Tuesday to see Rhea. —About forty emigrant negroes came down the Marietta & North Georgia Rail road last Tuesday night, and left on the midnight train for ‘Arkansas.

The work is destined to have a large run.— Southern World. The Constitution takes pleasure in com mending Mrs. Tennent's “Housekeeping in the Sunny South.” The gifted author is a lady of experience, culture and judgment, and an examination of the proofsheets of her forthcoming work will convince anyone that the book is exceptionally good. Mrs. Tennent has succeeded in producing a book that will be regarded as a necessity to every careful housekeeper. It seems to cover the entire field, and leaves nothing else to be desired. Many of the receipts are now pub lished for the first time, although they have been popular in private circles for years. These receipts have been collected with un tiring patience, and with a view to the pro duction of a reliable vade mecum for eco nomical housekeepers. Mrs. Tennent's book will be elegantly printed and substan tially bound, and will be offered at the low price of two dollars.

I have a little daughter seven years old who for the last four years has been afflicted with a peculiar skin eruption on the face and one hand. T have tried seven or eight physicians, among them the best in Cali fornia and in this province, but to no pur pose. The child kept growing worse. For tunately, I saw a statement in a St. Paul, Minn., paper, of a cure of a disease similar to that of my child. It was affected by Swift's Specific. 1 secured six bottles and commenced giving it to my little gizl.
