A Sunset in Talbotton.
Wo have read many descriptions of the sun
sets of lial}’, and mused until like Prentice, we
imagined ourself a part of their mysterious
depths; but mind has never pictured nor pen
cil ever traced a scene at all comparable to the
sunset of last Sabbath evening,as witnessed from
the heights of Talbotton. The most gorgeous
cloud tolds were piled in broken gold riffs along
a sea of amber and amethyst; while a few bold
headlands, surcharged with constantly evolving
radiance, caused the scene to sliitt every mo
ment, creating fairy castles with glittering spires,
and living landscapes from which arose rugged
mountain crags with towers bathed iu the rain of
a golden storm. Islands of coral vegetating sun
beams floating out on a sea of crystal light, would
pass along the horizon to die into nothingness
and iris shrouded gloom.
The background of the scene was a constant
ly changing sea of amethystine ether, with depths
so clear and grooping cloudlands so distinct, the
mind was intensified and overpowered at the im
macculate picture. Now see, far to the right in
the purest of ether, are floating plantom ships
with sails impelled by the softest of airs, born
just beyond at the golden gates. Dark browed
and luminous on their western verge, a compa
ny of headlands move lazily until lauuched into
golden meadow clouds. Above, high toward
the zenith, huge pyramids grow out of feathery
spray and become intensified with a golden
life. Slowly as the evening sinks, dies the mag
ic lithographing of the sun.
Mr. Barker’s Sciiool at Kedboue.
Mr. Editor: The undersigned attended the
school ot Mr. Barker at Collins worth, on Friday,
21st ult. W e hardly know which to admire the
most, the hospitality and kindness of the patrons
in their ample and rich provisions for a large
crowd of spectators, the splendid performance of
the Band liom Talbotton, in discoursing sweet
music, the thoroughness of the examination by
the teacher or the promptitude and readiness ot
the pupils in their exercises, especially as the
most of them were boys and girls not yet in their
“teens.” r l heir studies were mostly arithmetic,
geography, enghsk grammar, exercises in com
p ration and algebra. Many of the exercises
were on the black-board, and we can truly say
that we have never seen students—considering
their ages and a Ivantages—perform their parts
better. Mr. Barker, to prevent any suspicion
of a collusion between master and scholar, re
quested the undersigned, together with any oth
ers. to select any portion of their studies aud to
assist him iu bringing them before the pupils and
we extended the exercises to a considerable
length and iu few or no instances did we fail to
redeye tub answers to our questions or a prompt
solution of our problems. We think Mr. Bark
er has a rare gift ot presenting aud explaining
the subject he introduces to the comprehension
of tue juvenile mind as well as to engage the at
tention and excite the energies of the young.

A RAILROAD TO TALBOTTON.
On the 22nd inst.. Col. Virgil Powers and son
arrived in oar town to inspect the proposed
route, for a branch road from this place to num -
ber 6on the Southwestern Railroad. In com
pany with several of our business men and leading
citizens, the party started out to examine the to
pography of the country, and ascertain the
amount of grading necessary for the road. The
surveying party will arrive in a few days, when
a thorough map of the route will be taken, and
estimates of the cost of construction made. The
party will also survey the Geneva route and by
comparative estimates arrive at some definite
idea of construction on each route. We recog
nize in this inception of a most needed work, a
brighter prospect for Talbotton, and we trust
the people of the county will awaken to their in
terest and come forward with will and means to
start the good work. It is needless to refer to
the advantages that will accrue to the country in
the facilities offered to every branch of trade and
interest in the development of our resources, in
awakening our people to greater exertions, and
in the enhancement of our real estate.
The people of Talbotton are willing to assist to
the extent of their ability in the construction of
the road. It is a public necessity. Let us now,
as we have ample guarantees of assistance from
President Wadley of the Central Railroad, put
fortli every elTOrt for the accomplishment of this
enterprise. Let the people of the county move
in the matter promptly, and but a short time
will elapse before tne road will be under contract
find speedily finished.
The citizens and busiucss men of Macon are
also looking to their interest in the matter.
The entire cotton crop of this and portions of
adjoining counties will necessarily pass over this
road to find a market. A large trade can also
bo developed in this county for Macon, if she
will put forth the efforts to secure it. Then we
commend the enterprise to the business men of
Macon and ask them to assist us in the construc
tion of the road. The Southwestern proposes to
furnish the iron and rolling stock if we will grade
the road. This is a liberal offer. There can be
no doubt iu reference to the judiciousness of the
investment.
Talbot being one of the average rich counties
in the State, will furnish ample freightage in her
cotton, and the bacon, grain, produce and mer
chandise consumed in her borders annually.
Besides we are now paying an annual freight bill
that will grade and thoroughly equip the road.
To say nothing of the wonderful impetus that
will be given to trade, the population of our
town will increase one hundred per cent, in two
years from its completion.
Then let us awake to the importance of an en
terprise offering to the county at large and to
Talbotton in particular,facilities and advantages
which will make us prosperous and develop to
their fullest extent our resources.
Hats, Caps, Fur and Straw Goods.
CLARK BROTHERS AND CO., 32G, 328, AND 330 BROAD
WAY, new York.
Permanence can hardly be called a general
characteristic of bus: ness enterprises in New
York. Out of the thousands who yearly embark
upon the troubled waters of trafic, the vast ma
jority are engulfed in the maelstrom of financial
disaster and disappear forever. . Now and then
a house is found whose record of unvarying
prosperity dates back half a century, and ’ the
names of such are very familliar iu commercial
circles. Among these long established concerns,
the firm of Clark Brothers A Cos,, maintains an
enviable reputation for those solid qualifications
upon which alone a successful business career
can be based.
The house commenced bnsineess in the year
IB3U, at No. 114 Pearl St., under the firm name
of Draper & Clark, removing subsequently to 85
Pearl St. In 1845 the stylo of tho firm became
Draper, Clark A Cos., and their location was 31
Nassau St., in the vicinity ot the old Post Office.
Still later, removals were made to 45 Broadway,
and 22 Park Place (the warehouse extending
through to 17 Barclay St.). About 7 years ago,
impelled by the general-up-town movement of
the wholesale trade, and the imperative need of
more extended accommodations, the business
was transferred to the spacious quarters now
occupied at 326, 328, A 330 Broadway. Four
years since the firm style became Clark Brothers
& Cos.
During all these changes of location and part
nership, the business operations of the house
have steadily increased and its high reputation
has been maintained unblemished through all
the mutilations of more than thirty years. From
a modest inception the transactions of the firm
have gradually enlarged, until now Messrs.
Clark Brothers & Cos., do by far the largest bus
iness of any house in the city of New York.
Union, and considerable shipments of certain
styles of goods are made to Canada, Mexico, the
West Indies, Ac.
The warerooms comprise fTvo floors, with a
frontage of 75 feet on Broadway (the entrance
being at No. 330), and extending to the rear 175
feet. An L 25 feet wile opens on Pearl Si. and
another of 35 feel width on Worth St., the dis
tance from street to street being 190 feet. The
offices are upon the second floor, which is the
principal salesroom ; its broad expanse afl'ord
ing space for the display of an immense stock
of merchandise. The upper floor is used lor
the storage of entire cases, aud the examina
tion, packing and shipment of goods. All
goods are received and delivered at No. 98
Worth St., where a steam elevator facilitates the
the labor of handling the freight which is con
stantly arriving and departing. Nearly fifty
persons, including salesmen, accountants, por
ters, etc., are employed in the establishment.
The stock of silk, fur, wool and palm leaf hats
comprises every style and quality demanded by
the trade. These axe chiefly of Amerieau man
ufacture, but in straw goods, large foreign im
portations are made of articles adapted to ladies’
and childrens wear. Scotch caps are also an
item of foreign manufacture in which the firm
deal extensively. The manufacture of Palm
Leaf Hats is a prominent feature in the gener
al business of the house. The material is im
ported from the West Indies and sent to Massa
chusetts and elsewhere iu New’ England, to be
made into the countless shapes of head-gear lor
summer wear. This department ol the business
has received special attention lor thirty years
and has attained enormous proportions.
In what might be classed as millinery goods
will be found a full assortment of ladies’ and
children’s trimmed hats, ruches, flowers, shak
er hoods, etc. All ol the above made goods are
from the best manufactories at home and abroad,
purchased for cash, and consequently offered to
the trade upon unusually favorable terms.
With the mercury among the nineties, it may
be considered as rather unreasonable to say
much about furs, but long before the summer
is over, dealers iu such goods must replenish
their stocks iu anticipation of winter, and the
large assortment offered by Messrs. Clark Broth
ers & Cos., affords ample opportunity for satis
factory selection. The stock comprises every
description of muffs, capes, collars, boas, gloves,
gauntlets, etc., from the ordinary grades to the
richest and most elegant lurs'in the market,
made up in the latest and most prevalent styles;
also fancy furs--combinations of various col-
etc.—expressly for children’s wear.
The transactions of the firm are very large
with country dealers, and in the busy season
the splendid warerooms, filled with customers
from all parts of the country, present a scene of
animation, plainly indicative of the magnitude
°f ; the sales which are effected.
&ketcll K ives but an inadequate idea
ot the full scope and importance of a business
so extensive as that of Messrs. Clark Brothers
& Cos., but it affords us pleasure to offer this re
cognition—not only of their leading position in
the business world—but their possession ol
thoe stilling qualifications which have justly
won for them an eminent rank among our most
succesful and honored merchants.

Mr. Editor : The undersigned, a Committee
appointed to attend the exercises of the annual
examination of Collins - ., orth Institute, respect
fully request the publication of the following
communication:
The examination commenced on Tuesday, the
16th instant, and ended on Wednesday afternoon.
Several classes were examined in reading, spell
ing, geography, and English grammar. In these
essentials of an education the pupils showed
that they had been carefully taught, and that
their instructors had endeavored to lay a good
foundation in order to insure the security and
solidity of the superstructure. The dictation
exercises were quite creditable, and evinced the
fact that the scholars knew not merely how to
spell from the bock, but were also prepared to
write correctly any ordinary' sentence.
In the department of mathematics classes
were presented for examination in arithmetic,
algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. It was
evident from the promptness with which exam
ples under various rules were worked, from the
facility with which problems were solved, and
and from the ease with which the pupils gave
the correct answers to practical questions not
contained in the text-book, that they had been
well taught, and had also profited by the
instruction.
In the classics the examination in Latin was
in grammnt, Caesar. auO Ilor&oe. In Greek there
were exercises in the reader and Homer. Here
the same kind of training was exhibited as that
which had been manifested in the departments
already noticed. Attention was paid not merely
to translation, but also to parsing, and to that
thorough knowledge of the grammar absolutely'
necessary to those who aspire to a knowledge
of the languages of Cicero and Demosthenes.
The class in rhetoric promises well, and we
commend to its members a patient continuance
in the way in which they have commenced.
Throughout the examination was creditable to
teachers and pupils, and we feel that those
parents who may entrust their children to the
care of the faculty of Collinsworth will not
regret it. '
As to tho exhibition of tho proficiency of the
students in declamation, it will only be necessary
to say that it was fully on a par with that of
which they had given proof in their other
studies. Quite a number of the boys and young
men did very well, and we hope to hear good
accounts of them in the future.
V r e will not close without asking for this
institution a more liberal support for the coming
term than that which it has received during the
past year. With the faithful and competent
instructors which it now has, together with the
local advantages which it enjoys, Collinsworth
should be more widely known and more gener
ally patronized. Let all of the community in
whose midst she is placed rally to her support,
and let friends from abroad give her the liberal
patronage she deserves, that she may continue
to accomplish the great objects of her founders.

Messrs. R. FINDLAY’S SONS, Macon, Ga.
Gentlemen:— l am glad to say that I am very much pleased with the “Eclipse” Cotton Screw
bought from you. I have packed all mv own crop and the crops of some of my neighbors, and
can safely sav it packs faster than any Screw or Press I have ever seen. It is very simple, strong,
and not liable to get out of order. Yours truly, N. B. STROTHER.
We, the undersigned, having witnessed the Findlay A Craig Eclipse Screw Cotton Press, (man
ufactured by It. Findlay’s Sons, Macon,) in actual operation, do not hesitate to heartily recom
mend it to our planting friends and customers as a Cotton Press possessing several new and com
mendable features; prominent among which are rapidity, light draught, strength, simplicity,
durability, standing room at the top of the box, and general conveniences. The Screw Pin has a
pitch, or fall of 6i inches, rendering it uncommonly quick in action; and the anti-lriction device is
such as to require much less power to operate it, than the ordinary Screw Press, having a pitch or
fall of one or two inches. Twelve revolutions of levers run the follow Blocks down, and two or
dinary hands, in our opinion, can with comparative case pack a 500 pound bale of cotton. Iu
short,* it is the fastest, easiest worked, and most convenient press we have ever seen operated. It
can be worked either by hand or horse power, at the option of the owner. The proprietors inform
us that they guarantee their Press in every particular.

Gents: —Having purchased of you last fall a “Findlay and Craig Eclipse Screw" Cotton Press,
it affords me great pleasure to send you my certificate of more than satisfaction. From reports
made by parties using the press, I must confess that I expected to find it superior to all others—
whether of Iron or th° Old Wood Screw -but did not anticipate such grand results ! Gentlemen,
in introducing the Eclipse Press you have gained a sweeping victor)' over all competition. None
that I ever saw or heard of, can even approach it in excellence. It possesses great speed, (faster
lt>n Old XV-*~ l having pitoh or fall of fli inches. The light draught — the result
of your anti-friction device—is wonderful, great box room, standing room at top, and numerous

house receipts show that my bales packed on the Eclipse, by one light mule, range from Seven to
eight hundred pounds each, and I candidly believe that a 500 pound bale can be packed in my
press by one man at the Lever. I cannot say too much in "favor of your Eclipse, in fact, not
enough. For quick ond heavy work, and light draught, you “eclipse’ all others, leaving compe
tition far behind. In regard to durability,l consider it as durable as any press over manufactured,
and, in my opinion, will last generations, Don’t be afraid to guarantee them thoroughly. You
