O. I>- GORMAN, Proprietor. VOL. IV. iTALBOTTON STANDABD. f Wkdsksdax Morning, Seitembek 17. 1873. The South. f Tlie following beautiful tribute to the I South is from the pen of the editor of I the Vicksburg Times : “Southern nationality is a dream of the past. A gulf, beyond which we I could not pass, yawned between us and the realization of our hopes; and though bright flowers bloomed upon its brink and wafted us sweet perfume, we could not cross to gather them. The Sonthern cross no longer gleams out amid the wild light of battle ; the sword of the vanquished is sheathed, [ and the land is gloomy with the harm [ loss sepulchres of our martyred dead. [ But when years and years shall have I [Hissed away—when the last of the pres ! out generation sleep with their fathers, I and uew forms throng the old familiar 1 places —when faction shall have been H hushed and justice hold the scales— -1 then, as bright as day and free from I blemish and stain, will stand forth in 1 bright relief upon the scroll of frame, I the°record of the South, dearer to the 1 hearts of her children now in the hours I of sorrow than when on the march of i victory she won the admiration of the I world' Pilgrims from other lands shall I tread with reverend step aboveteh spot I where moulders the dust of our loved I and lost ; while those who are to follow | us will cherish as household gods the I names of those who, carving a way I through the fiery path of war, have I written their names where they never I die. The principle for which so many I laid down their lives may not be rec- I ognized until their names have grown I feeble on the tongue of friendship, and I been drooped, like dead silence, from I the ear of the world. JBut it will strug- I gle back from the hollow bosom that I once bled for it and ascend the heights b of government. And when the faithlul I historian shall descend into the vaults ■ of the dead past in quest of traditions ■ of liberty, he will discover to whom he 1 is indebted for their perpetuation.” Mr. A. R. Watson, of the Macon Tol i egraph.thus sketches the witty Harris of ■ the Savannah News ; J. Chandler Harris, of the .Savannah I Morning News, stands six feet five in II his stocking feet. Ho is a brunette of S the most perfect type, with coal black ■ hair, flowing down bis neck lin beauti ■ fill clusters of ringlets that would arouse I the envy of the fairest lady in the land. H He has the head of an Adonis mounted B upon the broad shoulders of a Hercules. B His size and prodigious strength give R him unlimited license to pop his jokes Eg haphazard over the heads of people with H an indiscriminateness which would in |f timidate a less heroic person. His dom- H inant personal quality is his prevailing H good humor. More smiles can always §f be found on his face than in tho best K comic almanac ever made. He has to H eat a jar of pickles every morning before |j he starts to his office to keep him from smiling at all the girls he meets on the I way. He is a bachelor by trade. True | he went back on his apprenticeship and I got married, but that does not alter the I proposition. Like other people he has 1 his hates. His special aversion is artil- I lery punch. He has been known to * walk four blocks out of his way to get I around one, and be has succeeded in I getting around half a dozen of them in | the course of an afternoon, One day K, he was so late in getting to the office | that he did not arrive till two o’clock J next morning. His excuse was that the | punch was bigger than usual, and it | took him longer to get around it. He I does the theological business for the 1 News, and writes up all the obituaries, i He is uever so happy as when he has an 1 obituary to write, and one that he can 1 expand to a quarter of a column throws I him into an ecstacy of delight from which 1 he does not recover in a week. He nev * er makes a joke, but obtains his pabu -1 um by reading the epitaphs at Bona- I venture. Genics of Woman - — Miss Knight, of j Boston, has invented a machine for I making paper bags with a satchel bot f tom,which is attracting attention for its I complicated mechanism and extraordi -1 nary ingenuity, not only all over this I country but also in all parts of Europe I and throughout Canada. The fortun- I ate inventor has already refused fifty S thousand dollars for her patent. An- I other Massachusetts woman now enters 1 he field. Mrs. Bardwell, of Amherst, I has recently received a pattent for a self- I fastening buttom,which needs no but -9 tonhoie,holds fast and unbuttons at a I touch. The invention con be applied I to buttons of all sizes ; and there is ev -1 cry prospect it will come into extensive I use. The world is indeed progressing, i when we owe to the inventive genius of ! woman that two and a half paper bags can be made in a second by a single ma -1 chine, and that the making of button holes will become a lost art. When we think of the time and eye-sight now de voted to making button-holes, we feel sure that all women will unite in erect ing a statue to the women whose inge nuity has taken away the necessity for the weary and countless stitches requir ed in this laborious department of femi nine industry.— Providence Journal. The President's Silver- Wedding. World Long Branch Letter.] Besides the weather, the chief topic of conversation is Grant's silver wed ding, which c lines off on Friday. There are many stories afloat concerning the same. Each of the indefinite number of guests invited,it is said, will have to pay dearly for the honor. No plated ware will bo tolerated among the presents for the President of the United States on the occasion of the twenty fifth anniversary of his marriage ; noth ing but solid silver will be received. It is stated that the servants at the Presi dent’s cottage have orders to admit no one whose offering is valued at less than $25. There is no limit,however,as to the amount of the gift. Much con jecture is indulged ns to what different individuals will give,and great tales are told of the visits made to New York by the President’s intimates not with him on the tour, and the ransacking of Tiff any’s and Ball & Black’s silverware collections. Be it noted here that sil ver is not stipulated for,and gold may bo the composition. There are some definite statements as to articles already purchased. One of Tom Murphy’ offer ings—for a single present was not enough from Thomas—is said to boa miniature, in solid silver, of the famous cottage by the sea ho gave Grant two years ago, with a silver figme of the President standing in front smoking a silver cigar- Tho figure Is an inch in height, and the edifice is made in pro portion. Its cost is computed at SSOO. Another is said to be (but only by those who had relations in Fort Lafayette during the war)a crown of solid silver, weighing two pounds, the circumference ce of which measures the same as the inside measurement of one of Grant’s cast off hats, which was taken to Tiff any’s for the purpose by ilrs. Murphy, A silver scepter of rare beauty of work manship completes tho regalia. But of the more substantial gifts, perhaps that of Lord Boscou, who expects to bn grand vizier under the new regime, will give the greatest pleasure to the Presi dent. It consists of a little silver trunk containing ten thousand silver dollars fresh froqi the mint. Bankruptcy Items. —A country law yer who manipulates the “Schedules A and B” once in a while for some of the numerous army of Bankrupts now marching to the front, exhibited his legal precision last week in a petition filed in the Bankrupt Court by tin following description of some of the personal estate. This is verbatim : One red and brindled cow with 11 rings on hei horns named “Sac’:ey” 10.00 One cow and calf yaller and black, cow named “Wild Buck” with a bobtail 15.00 One red listed sow with a litter of H spotted pigs. Pigs right pert. 10.00 One blind gray marc 20 years of age, very old on fit for service. Mare name “Sal.” 10.00 Six pouter spoons (long in usc)ono considerable bent, worth—s cts per piece. 30 Two pine cradles,with Inger Rubber baby gouging rings, worth (all told) ' 2.30 One silver Bull’s eye watch badly worn 5.00 One old strawberry speckled slit eared horse mule, mule name “Cross-eyed Dick,” bad for kick ing—worth 50 With all the above precision in bis descriptive powers this “limb-o’-the law,” wo regret to nay, is still vigorous ly wrestling with “Bump,” and at large, seeking whom he may entice in to the peaceful paths of Bankruptcy.— Sa.v Newx. In Waco, Texas, good ponies are selling at prices ranging from ten dol lars to twenty-five. M agon and Her Business.— Macon will not allow herself to be run down by the progressive claquer * for that w’onderful place, the State capital, and the Tele graph comes to the front with a good word for Macon and her resources. Her jobbing trade is a steady, solid traffic. The house of Ross k Coleman alone sold a million dollars worth of dry-goods last season, and will do even better this year. There are other firms there who do equally as well. The dry-goods job bing trade of Macon extends over a large area throughout Eastern and Southeast ern Alabama, West and Middle Florida, Southwestern Georgia and other parts of the State. Macon has everything in her favor. A united community of bus iness men, a wide and prolific field to work in, and unsurpassed facilities are arguments in favor of Macon which can not be set at naught by envious rivals. “WHAT IS IT BUT A MAP OF BUSY LIFE, ITS FLUCTUATIONS AND ITS VAST CONCERNS.” TALBOTTON, GA., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1873.

The “Brown Extra Cotton Gin” is favorably known in all parts of the cotton growing country* The agents of this Gin sold upwards of Six Hundred to the planters of the South, during the past season. It possesses the maximum of all the desirable qualities, without being compli cated by any of the so-called improvements, such as condensers, needle-teeth, card-cylinders, and extra brushes. It is simple, durable, well made of good materials, light running, and is unrivalled in the quantity and beauty of the sta ple produced. Possessing these, and many oth er advantages, it has been received with greater favor, even than in former years, when, as now, it was a general favorite at the South. It is made with a strong iron frame, combining strength and durability. For perlect finish, simplicity, fust and clean ginning, light draft, and superiority ol lint, it is without a rival. To suit the preferences of a portion of the trade, some ot the Gins are made with wooden frames of white ash, and are very strong and substantial; otherwise the Gins are the same as those with iron frames, and are furnished at the same price. When an order is sent it will be necessary to name the kind wanted. jy9-Sm J. L. DUNHAM & CO., Agents. Dennis Bros., Agents at Talbotton. for Tall crops. SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO! For Bls by C. B.
