But few will mourn hi 9 departure from
this State-
The News and Courier libel trial
ended in a disagreement of the jury.
It is stated that eleven were for ac
quittal and one for conviction. It is
generally believed that this will be an
end of the matter.
The recent cold snap is said to have
greatly damaged the grain crops of the
North and West, while the tenderesk

stroyed north of Tennessee, and almost
cut off entirely in that State.
The sale of “Wild Lands” upon
which taxes have not been paid has
been postponed until the 15th of May

ers a few years after they have been
bought.
Mexican bandies are still on the

Hon. <J. A. Nutting lias written
another letter from Mexico. Of a
Market scene in A era Cruz, he says:
for a moment into the mar
ket? -one saw immense piles of water
melons, an abundance oi tomatoes,
cucumbers,corn, potatoes, pineapples,

EX~CONG.RESSM.4K PERRY and Ex
('■qy. Dennison both jsE*onounce Grant
for ■& third term, the <fcro*ble with Per
rv being that he is fearful of not get
ting ; as good a man as Grant. “As to
that,” says the Cinciuatti Enquirer,
‘we 'Would like to make a wager that
we-eoald not obtain a worse one if w.e
throw a drag-net into the street
and catch the first man that came
along.”
The Rev. Wm. Watkin Hicks has
assumed editorial charge of tlie Fcr
eandina Observer and will doubtless
make it very warm for such as have
very properly denounced iris course
with the radicals in Florida. Asa
preacher he i9 truly eloquent, as a writ
er pungent and sarcastic.
Through the columns of the Observ
er we look out for copious streams of
his wrath, terrible denunciations of his
occusers and vain endeavors to explain
his position in a manner satisfactory
to honest men.
Experiments are now being made
under the auspices of the Post Office
Department with a view to the mana
t' iCture of a postage stamp which can
not be washed. The practice of wash
ing stamps, particularly in large cities,
has resulted in defrauding the govern
ment out of large amounts of money,
and hence should they succet and, as is
likely to be the ease, in perfecting a
stem.** watch cm not he washed; so as
to be used again without detection, it
will prove greatly to the tienefit of the
■JoverffimenT.
GRANTS SILENCE.
The President has ooen participi* ;
ting in the centennial observances in
Massachusetts and was approached
more than once on the subject of a
third term. Hl3 stubborn silence on
this important matter wa9 painful, '
cooling the ardor of those who are
couuted among his worshippers. Not
even a word or hint could be obtained !
from the gram bnll-dog, concerning
his feelings, his wishes or his aspira
tions. He evidently does not admire
the signs of the times which portend
no g*>oi for him and he is silently
peering out from beneath a mask of
silence, watching the public feeling
which at this time presents nothing
encouraging to his burning desire for
anew lease of power. New England
has plainly manifested the disgust for
his idiocy and political bliudness and
will not support him again.
Radicals, as well as Democrats,
Europeans and Americans, unite in
declaring him the weakest ruler and
the poorest apology for a President
ever thrust upon a people. Honest
people wish to see a rogue dethroned
and rogues are shocked at his petty
moann**gH. The whole country would
be glad to hear an expression from
the President. If he is determined
on a third term, let him manifest it,
so that his followers may begin their
work, for it will be a stupendous task
and they cannot begin too soon.
Present idieations do not favor Mr.
Grant. Ihe people desire a change
of some kind and let the fight be open.
If Grant, then let him throw his col
ors to the breeze; if not, then let him
retire to that infamous oblivion he
deserves and never again raise his
head to terrify a law abiding people.
If he intends to run the race, we think
he can do so most successful by com
ing boldly to the front. Come out
from behind this mask, Mr. Grant.
We all know your aspirations. You
want money. A continuance in pow
er will secure it and to this end you
have long been looking.
The whole country, like a jaded
horse, will throw you off and be freed
from your galling spur, if the oppor
tu nit v presen ts itself. During radical
rule our country has drifted into ruin
;uul bankruptcy; starvation stares ns
in the face, taxes grind ns to death.
Civil rights bills, enforcement bilks,
and a thousand other devil inspired
bills, have goaded the liberty loving
people of the United States to desper
ation and if our prayers, determina
tion and work can avail, Mr. Grant
will abandon the \\ bite House never,
we hope, to return.
SERVANT GIRLS IX GERMANY.
This class of hired labor, which in
American society occasions so much
trouble, is placed under the supervis
ion of the police and hired girls are
successful or not according to the ac
count of them by the police. Every
German servant girl is provided with
a service book, given her by the po
lice, in which are registers and her name,
age and native place, and on each page
is printed aiormula which the mistress
on the dismissal of the servant is re
quired to till up, showing her cleanli
ness, industry—moral conduct, sobri
ety, &.c., as well as the reason of her
leaving, the date on which she began
work and when she quit Before she
can secure another position she must
report to the police who examine her
record and proceed accordingly. Oh,
for some system by which colored
girls might be made more effective.
We have too much civil rights among
us and too much of the spirit of “in
timidation” in our blood for such a
system in the South. M ere our col
ored damsels to be required to keep a
book containing their conduct, each
family would be compelled to hire a
competent book-keeper. Besides if
the police interfered in the matter,
“enfostment” guns would be brought
to bear on us for intimidating the
poor colored people. A negro to be
made useful and remunerative must
have a master who will keep him in his
place and make him work not by op
erating upon his pride, because the
fewest number are possessed of such
an element, but by taking bold of him
boldly and forcing him to duty. A
demit, a damaging report or a dis
missal for the grossest crimes, instead
of degrading a negro elevate him in
colored society, according tothehein
ousuess of the offence. A returned
convict is lionized, a murderer hum’-
for his deeds is mourned for as a mar
tyr.
Tm: Chicago Tribune tells a good
story of an Adventist who had made
ready for the winding up of earthly
things and had donned bis robe pre
paratory to leaving. He was a well
to-do Granger and was surrounded by
many of the comforts of life, among
other tilings, some tall haystacks.
One of these he mounted in order to
have a kind of a start when the final
trump was sounded. Ue became tired
of waiting for the thing te happen
and very naturally fell asleep. Some
bad boys set. fire to the haystack and
the Granger awaked by the cracking
of tue flames, supposed it ail over and
remarked: “lu h—l, just ae I expect

We are informed that the wheat
prospect in this section is generally
very flattering; some fields m\> repre
sented to be remarkably good. We
arc pleased to lie able to make this
announcement, for on the success of
the wheat, fruit and blackberry crops
depends the hope of the country.
From the best information gathered
from planters this week, we do not
think that cotton or corn was serious
ly damaged by the late frosts, unless
in very low places. The continued
cold and wet weather, are seriously
retarding the growing crems, putting
them hack, ten days at least. With
the warm sunshine, which is undoubt
edly just ahead of us, eter/thiag will
he bound to grow, and probably make
up lost time, if properly cultivated.
The Thomas county Agricultural
Society at its last meeting resolved, to
have a meeting on the 2nd Tuesday
in May, for the purpose of discussing,
and comparing notes on the growing
crops. Every planter in the Count/
is respectfully' invited to come for
ward and give in his experience.
These meetings may, and will, resuL
in practical good ; and we hope to see
hundreds of the honest, sun browned
sons of toil, in our town on the sec
ond Thursday in next month. It
will pay you gentlemen to meet to
gether once in a while, and inter
change views. A man does not know
everything himself. You may get
ideas, which av'ill be worth hundreds
to you, by meeting and comparing
notes and results, with your

day named. —Thomasvitte Times.

Mr. C. W. Sinuous showed us a
sample of oats, the other day, fully
headed out and about three and a
half feet high. He informs us that
is a fair sample of fifty acres, and
sa\s that, although there may be
■‘patches” of oats, here and there,
that may exceed his, he is willing to
compare with any other fifty acres in
the county.
r l he Perry depot has shipped this
season four thousand bales of cotton,
and about three hundred bales of

well, especially when we consider the
fact that only about ten thousand
bales are produced in the county, and
that there are about twenty shipping
points beside* Perry, besides large
qnantitiea being hauled to Macon by
wagons. This cotton was worth at
least 8250,000. Home Journal.
BARD, THE EX-P. M.
His loyalty cannot save him, his
blind idolatry to Grant and his steady
adherence to his cause are of no avail,
he must step down and out. lie has
maintained a surprising equanimity
since the appointment of Conley,
thinking or appearing to think it all a
hoax and that tho Administration
whose faithful servant he has ever
been would not thus without cause
cast him upon the shore a broken,
useless, despicable wreck. It appears
that Bard has been too “unanimous”
or rather too uniform in his postal
transactions, lie lias stolen nothing,
lias not caused the good people of.
Atlanta to cry aloud for redress, has
not defaulted, that great crime unpar
donable in republican morals. Tin t
twenty-three cents in favor of honesty
was too much for the President; it
was a dangerous precedent and if
countenanced for once might remhr
official position a non-paying business
to say the least.
Here Samuel is your error. The
radical motto for the past seven years
bus been steal all you can and holdall
you get; law is a farce, government a
thing of the past; monev. gold is the
object and if any follower or faithful
adherent shall command the respect
of the people by his honest v, he
must he sacrificed. Bard would
fain have had another chance, but
Post Master Gem rul Jewell has
notified him that the change will take
effect, Conley will be unpoh ted, and
the sorrowing Samuil n.v resign if he
chooses or he put out.
We learn that his friends are busily
engaged in getting up a petition re
questing the President to retain hi n as
post master and th* petition, ’savs an
exchange, is being rapidlv tilled up.
The Ex Governor is evidently deter
mined to have another chance and
submit the patie.ee of the Pr. si ent
to a severe test. If the thing keeps
on we expect to here that Sheridan
has been dispatched to Atlanta at and
pushed out Sammy at the point of
the bayonet.

SELF-BEYOLYING CHURN DASH.
Butter Made in Tliree Minutes I
CHALLENGE THE WORLD FOR AN EQUAL!
SUCH IIaS BEEN THE DEMAND for an invention to lighten the tedious and labori
oils process of butter making, that it has caused numbers ol worthless patent churns to be
invented and thrown upon the jKople, and generally whose only merit consists in being
too expensive for every one to purchase.
THE INVENTION OF THE
s El. F-R EVoL VI N G DASII
Does away with all previous objections, and has at last accomplished the desired object
and supplied the long felt want in every household
ITS POINTS OF MERIT AIIE -
It being the CHEAPEST CHURN DASH ever invented—being within the reach of
all—even the poorest family c:tu buy one—
RETAIL PRIOR ONLY $1,59-
It is simple and durable, and easily cleaned after using, (one of the great objections to
other patent churns.) It can be used in ordinary churn or stone jar.
Having a peculiarly constructed air chamber at the bottom, it forces the air into every
part of the cream or milk, thereby equalizing the temperature ol the same, and by means
ol the revolutions of the propeller wheel and the sharp cubing edges of the rim, it forces
the fluid through the holes of the rim and the funnel-shaped air chamber at the bottom of
the dash, thus breaking the globules containing the hauler and thereby lias’eniug the op
eration of butter making.
It will sell in every family on sight. The profit to agents wLo sell them is over Three
Hundred Per Cent.
Agents have made as high as FIFTY DOLLARS per day selling them. County
Rights tor sale only by J. J. ALLEN
The above CHURN DASH will be on exhibition in Thomaston during Court week,
when 1 can supply the Dash, and will sell the right to any county in the State, except

Mr. J. J. Allen: 1 Ins is to certify after an honest conviction by a thorough trial that
the Sell revolving Patent Churn Dash, sold l>3 r you, I believe to be superior to any other

LITERATURE.
In the department of General Literature, the Ec
lectic presents an unsurpassed array of Instruc
tive and eutertalnlng articles. Its selection-ere
made from all the English and foreign periodicals
and cover a literature Incomparably richer and
more productive than any other to which the read
er can tind access. A class of writers contribute
to the Fnglish magazines and newspapers such
seldom apoear In American periodicals, and the
best of these Essays. Reviews, Sketches, Criticism
and Poems are reproduced in the Kclkctic. Re
cent Issues have contained articles, stories, (*r po
ems bj*tlie Right lion. W. E. Gladstone, .Tames
Anthony' Fronde, Mathew Arnold, Cliarles Kings

To this department the Eclectic gives larg o
space than any other magazine In the worldnot r

ers and writers; as Profs. Huxley and Tpdall,
Richard Proctor; B. A., Prof. Owen", Dr. W. B. Car
penter. Max Muller, j. Norman LoeXyer, st- Gee
'll vart and E. B. Tylor, all of whom have been rip
resented to recent Is'ues of the Magazine. The
public should bear the fact in mind that the Delec
tic lies uo theory of its own to advocate, but im
partially gives place to the ni'istimportant article
on both sides of the great tUeu*- atlentlflc dlv
