Ye* to relay afternoon a runaway occur
red on First attest, in whioh a lady from
Dawson was violently thrown to the
ground. A short turn was made, throwing
one of the wheels of the vehiolo under
and against it, breaking several spokes.
This frightened the horse, and ha rao.
Tho lady from Dawson endeavored to
leap oat,when ehe was thrown face down
ward, striking on tho side of the head
and inflicting a alight bruise. When
reaohed she was inseusiblo, bat soon tea
vised. Tho horsa ran across the street
and tho other oooupant of the vehicle,
was also thrown out, but was uninjured.
The horse wns then stopped. Neither of
the ladies wera injured, although the ea.
cape was very narrow.
Jewish Veaat ot Succotli or Harvest
Haw,
This evening commences tho Feast of
Succoth orTabernaolo, and is one of the
three great festivals observed in the
Jewish Faith. Thcso are the Feast of
Passover, the Feast ot Pentocost an J the
Feast of Booths or Tabornacles. It lasts
nine days, but only the first day and the
last two are holy convocations, and only
daring them are Tcmplo sorvioe hold.
The eighth day is called ‘‘Schmini Aae-
reth,” and tho ninth "Slmchath Zorah.”
Its injunctions are based npon the Di-
vino command laid down in Leviticus
23:39. The liturgy of the festival cele
brates the exoellency of tho law, and of
the mission of Mobss, the symbolio cere
monies and observances. The dwelling in
booths for eight days, and other rites are
very interesting.
Tha festival is passed in festivity and
thanksgiving. No other Jewish month
oont&jns so many holy days as Tishri,
the seventh month.
It seems tobsvo been the intention of
the law that the gratitude of m ,n should
endeavor to keep paoe with the bounty of
the Creator, and that at the very eeason
when the earth is teeming with tho abnn-
danoe of Divine blessing, man should
have it most forcibly Impressed upon his
mind that the love of God, ana obedience
to His laws, are the only return he oan
make to the free gift of the Divine
mercy.
Tnerefore, tho lioth Hathona, or New
Year, calls the Israelite to examine his
past conduct; the ten penitential days tell
him to repent snd emend; the Yom
Satippar, or tae day of atonement, di
rects him to make his peace with God
and his fellow-men; and when bis mind
ia thns properly prepared, the Feast of
the Tabernacle teaohes him to rejoice in
the folinees of the Divine bounty.
The Synagogue will be open tnia even

Editors Telegraph and Messenger: I
tee w this morning’s TsuaBini a meet
ing to be oonvened for tbe purpose of
taking some action on the inscription
which has been or will be proposed for the
Confederate monument.
I hope that whatever inscription the in
telligent committee may adopt, will be
clear, definite and saggestive of the glo
rious caa*e :n defense of which oar no
ble soldiers died on the field of battle, or
in the wards of the military hospital.
I hope that no each timid, doabtfal or
inexpressive inscription as “Our Confed
erate dead,” will tie adopted, bat that
the example of the patnotio lodies of
Virginia will be followed, and let ua put
in Imperishable letters the memory of
“The men who fell In defense of the Lib
erties and Independence of the Confeder
ate States of America.’’

Funeral ef Mrs. T. X. Rmhim.
One of the moet solemn and impressive
fcneral services held in Maoon iu
years took plaoe at the Presbyterian
Church yesterday afternoon, when the
last sad rites were performed over the
remains of Mrs. Thomas B. Gresham. I
The announcement of her death cast a
gloom over the entire community, and
before the hour appointed for the f oners!
a Urge concourse of friends gathered at
the church to pay to the much loved
dead their last earthly tribute of esteem.
The remains were received at the church
by the congregation standing, and were
followed np the aisle by a large oonoonrse
of relatives.
The services were opened with a vol
untary “Ashamed of Jesus,” sung by
Mrs. Theo. Wells in an exquisitely beau
tiful manner. Bev. A. W. Clisby con
ducted the services, reading first the
twenty-third Psalm, followed by other
appropriate passages of Scripture.
The hymn “Just as I am” was sung
by the choir beautifully. The words of
the basis of Mr. dishy's remarks were
found in the twelfth verse of the second
chapter of tho Epistlo to Timothy, and
a discourse followed which for appropn
ateneas, touching symplicity and tender
feeling, has Beldom been heard. The cir
cumstance under which the text was
written, and the hope which sustained
the Apostle were described. The similari
ty of the Christian hope of the deceased
was pointed out. Her Christian character,
her lovely life,and gentle resignation were
tenderly Blinded to. In conclusion, the
minister delivered a message from the
deceased thanking all for their solicitude
and sympathy for herself, and stated that
one of her last utteranoes was the prayer
that God would bless Maoon, showing
in her dying moments that disinterested
solicitude for the happiness of others
whioh was one of the shining qualities
of her pore life.
The hymn "Jesns, Lover of my Soul,
enng by reqaest of the deceased, as were
also the other selections, closed the ex
ercisos at the church. The remains were
slowly borne ont by Messrs. G. C. Conner,
T. G. Holt, BenC. Smith, J. W. Lockett,
J. L. SauUbury, L. Bipley, C. E. Camp
bell and C. H. Solo man.
Tho casket was laden with the rarest
flowers wrought in designs of greatest
beanty by the hands of affection. A lorig
procession was formed and followed the
remains to Bose Hill Cemetery, where
they were laid to rest.
Mrs. Gresham was ono of the most pop
ular ladies in Macon society, and held a
place in the hearts of all by her rare en
dowments of intellect and heart. Her
lifo was a beautiful example, fall of
Christian graoe. In her death Macon
loeee one of her brightest ornamentB, the
poor a friend, the church one of its most
valuable and useful members, and her
death will long be remembered. All
who knew her will pause and let fall the
tribnto of a sigh over the grave of one
who was lovely through life and lovely to
the end.

A Ureal Industry.
BxchangeJ
We take pleasure in calling the atten
tion of onr readers to the advertisement
in anc-thsr column cf Messrs. John Clark,
Jr., A Co.’s best six cord spool ootton.
In catling attention to the ‘‘trade mark”
recently Introduced by this celebrated
firm, a brief reference to the importance
of the industry with which their name
has been so prominently connected for
the past sixty years will be certain to in
terest all dealers in spool cotton and the
pnblie at large. Their thread was first
imported into the United States (as spool
ootton), the first omalgnmerit of which
arrived at tho port of New York in tie
year 1818. Sinoe that date i* has held a
leading position, no other six-cord thread
surpassing it in quality, and but very
few have been claimed to equal it. The
name of John Clark, Jr., & Co., has al
ways been accepted as a guarantee for
quality and honestly, and their skill and
integrity has been rewarded by the ex
tensive patronage bestowed npon their
thread and tho confidsnoo and high es
teem in whioh they are held by tho whole
mercantile world.
Tho manufacture of spool cotton ranks
among the first in importance represent
ed in the growth and development of the
great industries of Great Britain and
tho United States. Few who look npon
spool of thread are aware of the labor,
capital and machinery that are required
to prepare it for market and fit it to the
consumer’s use. There is no one tndns
try, either in the Old World or the New,
that requires greater perfection in ma
chinery, skill in operatives and minute
ness in detail, than that of the manufac
ture of six-oord spool cotton. The per
fection to which spool thread has attained
in its present production, is dne to the
experience and capital that have been
expended in its development ever since
the commencement of the present centu
ry-
Among the first of the large manufac
turers that engaged extensively in this
oonntry was the late Mr. John Clark,Jr,
the founder of the firm of which we are
speaking, who came to Glasgow,Scotland,
in 1816, in conaeqnenoe of his mills
Paisely being destroyed by fire. He
then, by his great business ability, expe
rience and skill as a msnnafactnrer, laid
tho foundation of the largo and extensive
business that now, under the style of
John Clark, Jr. & Co., extends, throagh
the sale of their six-cord spool cotton, to
all the markets of the world. . The mills
at Mile End, Glasgow, are extensive and
imposing in their dimensions, and stand
on an area of many acres of ground,
Some idea of the extent of the business
here being done may be gathered from
the fact that theirgtrade re quirts the pro
duction of 80,000 inroad twisting spindles
and the daily employment of 1,200 hands,
The machinery is worked by compound
engines of 400 horse-power, to which
steam is supplied by ten boilers. One of
the landmarks of the city is the chimney
stack of the mills, which towers upward
to the height of nearly 250 feet. Within
the inciosnre is an artesian well, sunk
120 feet, from which water was famished
at the rate of 400 gallons per minute.
The whole of the arrangement of tho
works is of a very high order, and clearly
indicates that the utmost care is taken in
every department to insure the uniform,
ity and excellence for whioh John Clark,
Jr., & Co.’s Six-Cord Spool Cotton is so
justly celebrated.
At the Centennial Exhibition at Phil,
adelphia in 1876, they obtained a diplo
ma for excellence in color, quality and
finish, which was the highest award
granted to spool cotton, and in addition
to which they have been granted medals
at London, Paris and Vienna. The
skill and enterprise of the firm is stri
kingly displayed in the prodnotion of
Colored Thread, when it is considered
that no lees than forty-two different
shades are necessary to meet tho de
mands of customers. These shades are
of the most delicate and varied hups,
and adapted to all varieties of dress
material in American or foreign fab
rics. They include Spanish Linen,
Lmcn Drab, Olive Drab, Steel Drab,
Mid, Quaker Drab, Dark Quaker Drab,
Sled Slate, Saxon BJne, Light Slate,
New Slate, Mid Slate, and Blno Slate.
new system of dyeing, introduced by
the firm, imparts to those delicate oolors
a rich gloss which closely resembles and
is only to be found in Silk Threads, while
the strength and elasticity is so thor
oughly preserved as to render them in
every way perfect.
Their White Thread being wound npon
black spools, its plaoe In the market has
been more distinotive than any other
brand, and in order the better to preserve
and maintain the distinctive character of
their entiro line of white, blsok and ool-
ored, and to prevent the probability of
their labels being oopied or imitated at
any future time, they have now introduc
ed a trade mark, which has been duly reg
istered at the Patent office at Washing
ton, and whioh will hereafter appear npon
tho bottom tioket of every epool and on
the box labels, namely, the word “Mile-
End,” tbe name ot their Glasgow faoto
