MACOI, <HA„ PEC. 8. IS7*.
Eplzaotical.
Thtrc arc two ways of stalling an ox : One
behind a fesd of corn, the other before a load
of It. We saw a yoke of the boriues yesterday
on the street that demonstrated the proposi
tion. They were doing duty as mule# before a
heavy leaden dray.
Very Convenient.
The drugstore of Dr. T. B. Ford, situated at
the Junction of the Street Railway, corner of
College street and Cotton Avenue. To our
citizens on the hill it mutt prove of great bene
fit saving any amount of leg work and anxiaty.
Dr. Ford has everything that can be called
for in his line, and can be found at all hours.
Mherlft’a (tales.
Quite an extension sale of lands took place
to-day at the Court House the regular day for
Sheriff’s Sales. The property of the Freeman’s
on Tobcsofkee Creek, was ottered by the Ad
ministrator Mr. W. A. Cherry, also many other
lots of land in Bibb, Houston and Twiggs coun
ties. The price* given were very small.
Grey Cagle.
Aldeman Clay informs us that on Sunday
last, he thought a little exercise would help
his invalid horses, Grey Eagle and Flying
Cloud, so he let them eut about a mile, and now
one of them, Eagle, is very sick. Mr. Clay
6ays that by keeping the horses perfectly quiet
is the only way to save them. We commend
the suggestion.
John Robinson.
This great show exhibited to the largest
crowd aver assembled beneath a canvass in
Macon lost night. We might spin out a col
umn of praise, but will only Bay that it was
the finest shew that have ever put up tents in
Macon. Wc commend them to every city
they intend visiting as being the best show
going through the country.
Yow ia Yonr Time.
Parties desiring agricultural implements of
all kinds and all kinds of labor-saving ma
chines will do well to call on Mr. T. B. Cox, at
Parker’s old stand. Everything is actually be
ing sold at fsr below cost and bargains can be
had by early applications.
KIIm At I.alley.
Then: gentlemen having purchased the en
tire stock of W. P. Carlos, are now ready to
continue the general grocery business in all its
details at the old stand. They are fully com
petent to wear the mantle of the Don, both
having been associated with the house for many
years.
The old house will lose nothing by the new
arrangement and we trust they will receive a
liberal share of the publie patronage.
The College.
Happening “on the hill” this morning we
suddenly found oarselves in front of the Col
lege, and were Impressed at the improved look
of things there of the front appearance espe
cially. Two flights of stairs have been put to
the Chapel and a beautiful iron fence and gate
has been put up directly in front of it, the gate
surmounted with a pair of lamps. Another
fence has been put also in front of the College
proper and a cosy little balcony, approached
by a winding stairway has been built on the
Washington Avenue 6ide. The bank on both
streets has been graded down almost level with
t'ie street, making a decided improvement in
the aspect of things up there. The work in
side the walls is still progressing.
.larrew Escape.
A day or two ago, Mr. Strickland one of the
Agents of John Robinsen’s Show and the local
of this paper were seated on one of the settees
beneath a very large tree in the Park. Hearing
a loud crash above us we jumped and had
barely left the seat when a large dead limb,
weighing perhaps two or three hundred pounds
fell directly at the place we had left only a
second before. It came with such tremendous
fore* as to make a large hole in the earth, and
had it struck our precious head what a nice
item brother Watson would have had. Now
say it’s not better to be bom lucky than rich.

Mr. 11. B. Claflin, one of Brooklyn's
merchant princes, is building a costly
mansion on Pierrepont street, one door
west of Hicks street. When finished
it will cost nearly $200,000. It will be of
the Roman style of architecture, adapted
to modern ideas. The material for the
front walls will be brown stone, and the
aide, rear, and partition walls of brick. It
will be fifty-two feet front and sixty-nine
feet deep, and four stories and basement
in height The walls will be from three
feet to twenty laches thick. All of the
basement sad pert of the first story are up.
The Greut Ole Hull.*
To give our readers an Idea of the great es
teem iu which Ole Bull and his company are
held, we subjoin n few criticisms from the load
ing press:
Of Ole Bull, the Lonisvlllo Courier-Journal
says:
* * * To properly describe, in words, the
playing of Ole Bull is an impossibility; To
fully express the emotions ana feelings' awak
ened by that magic bow, as it hovers over those
strings, drawing therefrom sounds too sweet
for heaven, is like a duty for which we feel our
pen too weak and feeble to attempt. And for
those so fortunate as to ha present —and they
were many—it is unnecessary.
Who has ever heard a more tender, soulfull,
agonizing “prayer,” than that poured forth
from his violin—liis own composition ? VerUy,
it was lie of a hard heart and a gross nature,
whose eye was not moistened witli a glistening
tear, drawn from the very fountains of tin
heart, by those wailing, beseeching tones, and
to whose mind., reminiscences of youth and of
a loving “Mother’s Prayer,” were not brought
by the power of those strings. Ilia other se
lections were magnificently played. Mr. Bull
executed passages which have never been play
ed by any violinist wo ever heard, and which
wo doubt the ability of any other living artist
to perform. After the “Mother’s Prayer,” Mr.
Bull played ns encore, a beautiful little arrange
ment of “Home, Sweet Home,” and for tin
same after the "Carnival,” an arrangement of
the “Arkansas Traveler,” which iu that line
was about the “cutest” tiling \v ever heard,
and from the warmth of its reception com
pared with some of its predecessors, too much
its superior to allow comparison even to be
thought of, we imagine there was a gain of
finely drawn sarcasm, which was as delicate a
it was deserved.
Of Signor Ferranti, the Boston Journal says :
Signor Ferranti’s Figaro was of the true Ital
ian type, dashing, audacious, impetuous, al
most resistible it sometime* came close upon the
verge of over action, but as a whole was kept
well within hounds; more of the conventional
Barbiere. than Signor Ronconi, Signor Ferranti
yet gave his own individuality to the character
and proved his right to he considered us a hullo
of the very best stamp.
Of Miss Ridgeway, the N. Y Evening Mail
says:
“Un Balto in Maschera.” * * * “The
debnt of Miss Graziella Ridgway was a remark
able success. Her aweetface, pottite and grace
ful figure, together with a fresh and sympa
thetic voice, won her hearers immediately.
She has been a pupil of Signor Albites for over
two years, and her vocal training reflects the
highest credit on this already popular teacher.
Miss Ridgway’s manner is simple and uncon
strained, her acting is natural, and her singing
displays great flexibility of voice and a clear
utterance.
She has already became a favorite, in all the
large eastern cities, on the concert stage, and
bids fair to become a shining ornament of our
lyric stage also.”
Of Mr. Pattison the New York Home Jour
nal says;
Mr. Pattison at this moment is one of the
first pianists iu our country—one of the few,
very few, foremost In tile world. His versatili
ty is marvellous. To-day he is setting some
old strain which, it seemed to us, had sung it
self to deatli before wc heard him, iu a monturs
of which Bellini’s choicest gems might be
proud. To-morrow, all the country is dancing
after one of his mazourkas, which might have
called all the dead nuns iu “Robert” to foot
it under the moon without the golden branch.
The next day —and the men who have been
grumbling because he plays his own music in
stead of some dead man’s, whom they abused
to death when he did live, with expanded
mouth and saucer eyes—hear Pattison play
Chopin, Schumann, Mozart and Beethoven,
Bach’s A minor Fugue, or Ilensclt’s Concerto,
with a splendor of wliieii their schools’ best
representatives, are wholly incapable. If ever
there was a man inspired for, and divinely call
ed, to the piano-forte, it is he.
ltihb Superior Court.
This Court reassembled at 9 o’clock this
morning when the criminal docket was re
sumed.
Jack Harvey indicted for robbing the house
of Mr. Frank Lake of an overcoat, gold
watch and various other articles was arraigned.
In the proof of the prosecution it came out that
the prisoner was arrested in Milledgvillc to
gether with one Rylandcr another negro, and
that they had the stolen property either on their
persons or at their stopping place. Rylander
made his escape from the oflicers. Under the
charge of the Judge the Jury found him guilty
when he was immediately sentenced by the
Court to pay a fine of one hundred dollars and
coste and to confinement in the county jail for
four months.
The next case called up was that of Joe Lip
trap and Clms. Baker, charged with killing and
stealing hogs from Mr. Camart in this county.
A motion was made to sever by the defense,
and Joe put on trial. He was ably defended
by our young Attorney, T. B. Cox, but the
evidence was too plain against Joe and the jury
returned a verdict of guilty. His accomplice,
Chas. Baker, thereupon plead guilty. ’
The Judge in passing sentence reminded the
prisoners that they were young and hearty
men, able to earn a living without stealing,
and that the evidence against them was too
plain to admit of any doubt. That the crime
of stealing had become so frequent ho could
show no mercy, and that he had determined to
fully exercise the extreme penalty of the law
against every rogue convicted before him. He
therefore sentenced each one of them to pay a
fine of one hundred dollars and all costs, and
to be confined’in the county jail for six months.
Thomas Pye, convicted of stabbing and cut
ting Hal Gates, was sentenced to serve ten
years in tho penitentiary.
Court then adjourned until 9 o’clock to
morrow morning, when it is expected that
counsel will argne the case of the State against
Bennett, the all alleged bank forger.
Wei Smith Knsscll.
This great humorist is on liis way to our
city. He performed in Nashville last Wednes
day night to a crowded house.. The Nuabvillc
Republican Banner thus speaks of the gifted
humorist:
“ The programme is unique and artistically
arranged in three parts, comprising such vari
ety, that the interest never Hags from the be
ginning to the close in a programme of near
two hours. Russell is a born actor and a hu
morist by nature. Asa coinmedian he would
take rank among stars of the first magnitude.
The charm of his manner—hia graceful self
possession, in introducing his various charac
terizations; the appropriate make-up of the
characters; the iricsistible drollery of hia se
rio-comic hv-play; the eloquent satire of his
facial delineation of human weaknesses and
eccentricities, render bis monologue an infin
itely amusing and deservedly popular drawing
room entertainment. Ttiat liis efforts to please
were appreciated, was abundantly attested in
the vociferous applause of his delighted audi
ence last night, and the frequent demands fora
repetition. His Lecture ou Woman's Rights
was very good, hut that silly school-boy’s com
position on “the horse” brought down the
house. His repertoire of comic ballads em
braces all the newest and most popular airs.
His recitations are exceedingly clever. He
gave laet night “Shamus O’Brien” with a
pathos and feeling that moistened more than
one eye, and in the next instant, almost, he had
his audience wiping their eyes from excess of
laughter. His costuming and stage parapher
nalia are taateful and appropriate. We know
of no place where an evening could tie more
rationally and enjoyabiy went than at Rusaell'a
monologue.” .

TO EVERYBODY
AMD HIS CHARMING WIPE!
rpilAT all important event, the election, having pußscd away, and the “time* that tried men’s
A souls” liuve morged into the “ piping times of peace”; und Winter has been ushered in
among twitter of birds and music of the leaves as they full to the ground ; and the Summer hav
ing faded away and the weather reduced to something agreeable, I have to announce to iny nu
merous mid beloved patron* that I have recently returned from an extended trip to New York
Philadelphia, Poughkeepsie and Weohuasan, and other celebrated markets, where I purchased!
and have now iu my store, the largest lot of
“GOODIES!”
Ever brought to Macon, consisting in part of Sugar, Coffee, New York Canvassed Hams and
Breakfast Bacon, Lard, Butler, Canned Fruit, Jellies, Pickles, Raisins, Nuts, Apples, Lemons,
Cabbages, Onions, Potatoes, Crackers, Cheese, Spiced Hams, Bologna Sausages, and—well, it
would take me all dny to write what I have got, and it would fill this paper so full that Smith
wouldn't have a local for a week. It is almost unnecessary for me to mention the fact that lam
prepared, as ever, to supply Oysters and Shell fish of all kinds, from a Crab to a Greeley oyster.
The finest Fish, fresh and on lee, is kept by me, and sold at living rates.
In view of the fact that the people of Macon, and tliou visiting Maeon, are determined to eat
whether they get anything good or not, I have prepared myself for tlic. emergency, by making
ample arrangements to have my
DINING TABLES
Supplied with the very best this and other markets can afford. That popular dish, “Birds on
Toast" being my own Invention, Ihe people can always find the same at my restaurant. To
gether with my polite corps of waiters, this branch of my business will receive the patronage
of all of niv old customers, and, 1 hope, many new ones. My restaurant Is, us la well known
supplied with the very best
EATABLES & DRINKABLES
that could he found. Therefore, gentlemen und ladles, having laid before you what I have on
hand, and wishing you all the best luck and thut 1 can suit you in your purchases from me I
must close this letter. If at any lime I can serve you, you have hut to command me or my
corps of attentive and obliging elorks, and you will he made happy. Thanking you for pa*t
fuvors, 1 urn tenderly yours,

THE PREMIUM WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising is
a necessity to success in business; it is also
conceded, by the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are the best medium for reaching
all parties whose trade is desired.
THE MONROE ADVERTISER
reaches more of the people trading with Ma
con than any 'other journal published in the
country; it is, therefore, the beet medlnm of
communication with the planting interests
We will be happy at any lime to tarnish refer
ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere,
wiiowlll testify to the fact that they hSTere
celved orders for goods from parties who read
their cards In The Advertin'. In fact, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly aay that Its value exceeds that of all
other Journals in which they are represented.
The Advertiser has the freshness of youth and
the ripeness of age, and is therefore deservedly
successful. .
CHARACTER OF ADVERTISEMENTS.
No advertisements are admitted which are
not believed to be above question and or real
value, and from partiea so unquestionab y re
liable that the readers of The Advertiser will be
safe In ordering them from soy ‘UfUoce
