An Interesting Recital of the “Sights.” “Just walk in, sister Polly, and T'll tell you all about Josiah and me going to town. Guess you have heard about it though, for it has been the neighborhood talk since we got back; naturally so, too. You see, Josiah and‘l had been laying off first pretty day when we could open the potato bed, to carry along aload of potatoes, eggs, butter and such like; so, when the sun had fairly got up, we were trotting along several miles on our way. As luck would have it (you needn’t tell me there's nothing in luck), we drove right up in front of a store where we could see goods all piled up, and soon as Josiah could hitch old Selim, we marched right in; not in either, till we had taken a good look at the things heaped up in the windows. I saysto Josiah in a minute: ‘This is the very place,’ for there was every thing—Glasslamps, (we had kinder promis ed one to our Jane), Sunday Shoes, Work ing Shoes, Apples, Oranges, Raising, Cur rants, (you know, I always was some on cur rant pudding,) but I can’t begin to tell you what was in the windows even. They asked us in and we walked down one side of that store and just took-in—there was Tobacco, Cigars, Pipes, Soda, Baking Powders, Per fumery, Tea, Sacks of Coffee, whole Cheese, Boxes of Crackers, Boxes of Soap, and then in the middle was tins, all kinds of Coffee Pots. Big Pans, and every other little trick you ever heard ot on what they call nickle and ten cent counters. No dull times there I can tell you. Jeans piléd up as high as your head, good at 25cts. No use going to Atlanta or John Keely's. We then walked over on the other side of the store, and there was Crockery, all kinds and sizes of Plates, Cups and Saucers, white and them old time like my old mother use to have in our old corner cup-board. Then they have what they call a chamber set, bowl and pitchers, tooth brush holder, soap slab, mug, and sach piles of Boots and Shoes. Well, we looked around, and I sayssorter aside, We'll see what we can do out in town. So Josiah says to th.e man standing by the store, ‘We will see what we can do,’ but you needn’t think it took uslong to take in the situation, and after walking around the park and pricing around, we went back to where we had hitched old Selim, and there sold our pro- duce, got the money forit, and set in and bought everything right there, and so would you have did the same thing, for there was everything we wanted, Flour, Corn, Bacon, Hams, Sugar, barrels of it, and Syrup of all kinds. They had just been unloading two car loads of Timothy Hay; such piles of Bran. Well, I reckon we was the best pleased old couple you ever saw start home. Shoes and Hats for all the boys, not only the Lamp we had promised our Jane, but one for the boys, as we got both at what we ex pected to pay for one; but I ain’t took time to tell yon what store it was, but you must have guessed it was D, F. McCrareny's, You know how he is always talking so much in the Journar, yet he don't tell half, Well, nobody could in one column of a newspaper, but you and your old man had better go and lookout for yourselves, and if you ain’t more than pleased, T'll give it up.” DON'T FORGET THE PLACE! D. F. McClatehy’s Store. Polite and accommodating clerks and every thing in goods and prices to be relied on. | LOCAL LEAFLETS. —Cobb Superior Court convenes next Monday. —Mr.T. M.

The dog belonged to a negro man living near by. This circumstance creates a suspicion that Sambo or his dog one was trying to steal corn. —lt isn’t at all strange that a young lady of sweet sixteen, and pretty at that, should be looked upon as an electric wonder in Marietta. All females are more or less elec trie in Cobb county, asmay be gathered from the number of marriage license thatare sold in Marietta; and when you find one that is sweet and sixteen and pretty and a brunette and other bright and blessed things, too nu merous to mention, there is no wonder that everything unmarried in that intensely pro marriage community should be thoroughly electrified.—Albany News. —Electric females are springing up all over Georgia as the rival of Miss Lulu Hurst. Bartow county has one in the person of Miss Mattie Price, Fulton in the person of Mre, Coleman, Marietta in the person of Miss Mamie Simpson, and now Milledgeville steps forward and claims that Mrs. Dixie Haygood, wife of policeman Haygood, has had this strange power for ten years. She gave test of her power and performs all of the feats that Miss Hurst does. She lifted 600 pound entirely off the floor by placing Jher hands alongside the chair, —Capt. W. T.

He is sixty-nine years old, has a wife and two sous and three daughters all grown. His wife lives with one of her sons in this county. Dowda taught school near Smyrna several years be fore going to DeKalb county, where youth and beauty fascinated the old man and caused him to step out of the path of recti tude. We have seen him many times in Marietta, aud found him to be inteiligent and gentlemanly, and ws regret that in his old age he has to wear the shackles and stripes for the indiscretions of an infatuated woment. TOWN TALK. —March came in like a lamb. —Mr. and Mrs. Clem R. Harris, of Atlan ta, spent Sunday in the city. —A hack-line on Sunday afternoon to the Marble Works would pay a good dividend. —Mrs. N. P. T. Finch, of Atlanta, spent Sunday as the guest of Miss Kate Howell. —Mrs. A. W. Foree, of Atlanta, spent last week with Mrs. G. H. Camp. —Mr. W. L. Butler took in the town one night last week. Miss Mary Cheek left last Thursday on a visit to friends in Thomasville. —Mr. Woods White, of Atlanta, spent Thursday in the city. —lt seems that the hog law is still in force notwithstanding the weight it was intended to carry in the last municipal election. —Mr. G. C. Burnap and Dr. T. 8. Stewart, after a severe illness, are out again on the streets to the delight of their many friends. —Parties leaving Macon for Atlanta can have the transportations for themselves and baggage to the depot, paid for by going via the E. T. Va. and Ga. R. R. —Lost—On Kennesaw Avenue Saturday night, Feb. 2d, a long, green satin bow lined with red. The finder will oblige by return ing to Miss Sallie Camp. —The smoke stack at the marble works is to be one hundred and twenty feet high and two hundred thousaad brick are required to build it and the engine room. —The old Kennesaw Route has been dis solved by taking the New Orleans sleepers via Cincinnati. It seems ridiculous that the East Tennessee Road should try to claim the name of Kennesaw for their line. —Mr. Chuck Anderson sold his beautiful sorrel horse to Mr. Geo. R. Eager for $4OO and also shipped a car load of twenty-five head to Augusta last Thursday. His equip ment as left is the best in the South. —Mr. A. A. Fletcher has ordered a new supply of pass keys for Kennesaw House as the demand has increased lately to such an extent that the boys are more numerous than the keys and night is made hideous by the midnight poundings on the front door. —'Tis said that thirteen of our young la dies are engaged to be married. If they should all see fit to plight their troth during this year, 1886 would see Marietta devoid of a large share of its genuine at tractiveness. —Last Saturday night it was our pleasure in company with several couples to visit the home of Miss Mamie Simpson, to test the her powers of electricity, magnetism &e. Unfortunately she had sprained her wrist and was not prepared to give a full exhibit of the unknown force with which she is im bued. Her feat of raising two men sitting in a chair, weighing 350 Ibs, squarely offof the floor and standing on one foot resisting the presure of a strong man was something more than remarkable. An effort is being made to induce her to give a public exhibition at } an early day. —A gentleman who travels from a neigh boring city remarked a few days since, “The boom that Marietta is enjoying is the talk every where, itis considered an evi dence of permament prospersty and as little as you may think of it, is attracting the eagle eye of capitalists, both from the north and south.” He continued by giving an elaborate opinion of the many advantages and beauties of our section and climate and of the fortunate location in our city of the marble works, and ended by saying, “I con sider the outlook for your beautiful city more promising than any town in Georgia.” —The boiler of the engine, Little Mary, ofthe M. & N. Ga. R. R. being deemed un safe, the machinery was stripped off, and | with little ceremony she was rolled from the shops down the embankment and consigned to a resting place in the serap pile. A new one has been ordered and the machinery being overhauled, an engine as good as new will soon be added to their rolling stock. This little engine becomes historie, the pio neer, a 8 it were, of the narrow gauge being‘ compelled for want of shelter to stand the storms of many a wintry night on the end of a track that is now fast reaching to the bor ders of a neighboring State. Sheit was whose hoarse breathings and shrill whistle were first echoed in the recessesjof the mountains of North Georgia, the sighful responses rev erberating as they died away on the still at mosphere of the mountain solemnity. OxcE A WEEk. FURMAN'S FORMULA eel I I . SHOT BY HIS OWN GUN. ~—For some time past Mr. W. T. McKelvy, a farmer; residing near Salt Springs, in Doug las county, has been troubled with some one stealing corn from his erib. Saturday night he put a loaded gun in his erib, so arranged that opening the door would cause it to fire. Forgetful of this death trap that he had set for the thief, he went to the crib Sunday afternoon and opened the door. The result was 4 complete demonstration of the fact that if the thief had returned for more corn he would have been caught. The gun was discharged and Mr. McKelvy received a load of squirrel shot in his left knee, shattering the bone in a frightful manner. Amputa tion wasjrendered necessary. That operation ~was performed by Drs. Verdery, Edge and Pool, of Douglasville; Cotton, of Powder Springs ; Slaughter, of Villa Rica, and Gar rett, of Salt Springs. It is feared that the accident may result fatally. e— AR —— —lrcn, Mange and Seratches of every kind cured in 30 minutes by “Woolford's Sanitary Lotion.” Use no other. This never fails. Sold by R. H.

Mclntosh was killed at Powder Springs on last Monday morning at 3} o'clock by an East Tennessce, Va. & Ga. Railroad passenger train. Judge Mclntosh desired to go to Atlanta that morning, and as he lived some distance from the depot, his son hitched up a horse to a buggy to carry his father to meet the south bound train, which passed atan early hour. But they did not reach the depot in time, and when the Judge saw the train approaching, he realized that he would be left, and jumping out of the buggy he ran up to the side of the track and attempted to flag the train down, but the engineer did not see him or did not care to stop one or the other, and the train sped on. Just as the last coach was about to pass, Judge Mclntosh grabbed the railing to swing on, but the swiftness of the train rendered it difficult and the car struck him and threw him a distance of twenty feet, breaking several ribs, one of his arms, also an ankle, and knocking him insensible. His son ran to his father and seeing that he was helpless and badly hurt, called loudly for help. Some persons at the depot hearing the distressing cry, went to the scene of the accident and assisted in ecarrying the Judge to a neighbor’s house near by. Physicans were sent for, but they could do him no good. He lived three hours after the acei dent, remaining unconscious up to the time of his death. Judge Mclntosh was about 55 years old, and was a prominent citizen, a successful farmer, and a worthy mason. He was a Justice of the Peace at Powder Springs for a number of years, and represented this county in the State Constitutional Conven tion. He was a man of practical, common sense views, and his tragic death is deeply regretted. - A W— AUSTELL. —Some prowling thief entered the resi dence of Mr. J. D.

Powper Serinas, Ga., Feb. 28. 'B5. Messrs. Editors—ln your issue of the 19th of February appeared a communica tion from A. G. McKenney. He seems to put the stock-law in front in order to make a thrust at the cotton buyers of Powder Springs and brings up his rear with the road business to let the people know that he is one of the Grand Jurors, With your permission, we will try and give a true statement about this business, less the cotton buyers of this place be injur ed (one of whom has passed over the river of death and cannot defend his own fair name). MecKenhey's remarks are just as applicable to Rome.and Atlanta cotton buy ers as to the buyers of this place, because for a time a certain cotton buyer gave more for cotton in Marietta than the buy ers gave in either of the other places. The cotton in the warehouse here was tak en out and soid in Marietta. Even the mer chants did this, so did the warchousemen in Marietta sell to this certain buyer, and this same certain buyer even went to Atlanta and bought cotton there, Our cotton buyers kept so close to the At lanta market that they realized nothing on the business. Itisa fact that some quit buying because it was a loseing business. Did the Atlanta and Rome buyers pay any attention to this cotton buyer? Not a bit. Then why should the buyers here do so? It was none of their business if a certain buyer in Marietta thought proper to give above the market price. A good many of the men in the club men tioned are buying their guano here, having only bought a part direct from the manufac turers, and the business relations between the buyers and the farmers are not at all dis turbed. We have seen no folly nor braga docio, we are denied none of our rights, This is all a straw-man conjured up by an incongenial spirit to be demolished to the delight of his maker. The cotton buyers here will buy any man’s cotton, guano or no guano, club man or not. May be one buyer in Marietta did buy more cotton than all the buyers here, yet we know one buyer in Atlanta who bought a great deal more than all the buyers in Ma rietta, and what does this signify ? Nothing but the size of the cotton market of each place. The cotton buyers of this place have used every effort to build up a trade for the place. It is to their interest of course to do so. They have been foremost with money and brains in all of our undertakings. We guess the stock law will be disposed of according to law in due time. All are fa miliar with the cause of bad roads, but we have as good or better roads than any other district, and what work was done, was done voluntarily. As McKenney is going to be one of that august body, the Grand Jury, we hope he will see to it that things will be changed around to suit him as far as he can ‘influence the other twenty-two to conform to his views.
