Death in Cachinnation.
John Morris, a young men about 28
years of age, living near Langley,
went to a masquerade on Saturday
night last. He has always been noted
for laughing immoderately at any fun
ny incident. Some ludicrous feature
of the masquerade caused him to set
up a fit of laughing, when suddenly he
stopped and fell to the ground. He
was picked up, and a physician sent
for, but he pronounced the case hope
less as Mr. Morris had ruptured a
blood vessel. The unfortunate man
lingered until Sunday morning, when
he died. He leaves a wife and two
children to mourn his death. Mr.
Morris was a member of a cavaliy or
ganization during the war, and wrs a
universal favorite among a large circle
of relatives pnd friends.

Appeal for a Church.
There are a number of Presby ter^an
families residing in the neighborhood
of Sparta, Ga., who, owing to distance,
cannot wait the ordinances of re*
ligion “ tbat city, and are, therefore,
without the means of grace.
Finding it absolutely necessary to
erect a place of worship and naving ex
hausted their utmost efforts, they still
require some aid from abroad In or
der to obtain such aid they have com
missioned the Rev. Dr. and
Mr. W. D. Seymour to present their
wants and claims to their fellow-chris
t'ans in Augusta.
I know the cause which Dr. Mullal
ly and Mr. Seymour represent to be the
cause of Christ, and I hope his servants

Savannah News.
The Favorite Magnolia Route.
We copy with pleasure the following
notices from Western journals of the
Magnolia Route, which is destined to
be the route to Florida :
[St. Paul’s Press.]
What Italy and Southern France are to
Europe, the Peninsalar of Florida is to the
United States, and the number of tourists,
invalids and pleasure-seekers who visit
that perennial Land of Flowers is annually
on the increase. In order to draw attention
to the best mears of reaching the famous
pleasure resorts in Florida, Mr. Thomas
Magill, Western Passenger Agent of the
great Magnoiia Route, has visited St. Paul,
where he has succeeded in making a most
favorable impression as to the superior
advantages of the Magnolia Route over all
others. Tourists leaving Minnesota and the
West and Northwest for Florida will have
no difficulty in reaching Louisviiie, Ky.,
from which point to Atlanta, Ga., there
is plain sailing. From Atlanta, however,
the great Magnolia Route is preferable,
because it takes in the beautiful cities of
Augusta, Savannah and ethers, and be
cause it has better accommodations, surer
connections, reaches more points of inter
est, passes through grander scenery, and
carries passengers safer and quicker than
any other railroad in the South. This is
the only route running double daily trains
from Atlanta to Jacksonville, Florida, and
making close connections, and affording
the traveller the pleasure of making the
entire trip by day—a superior advantage
long sought for. After leaving Atlanta, the
Chicago of the South, the passenger will
pass through Augusta and Savannah, two
of the most beautiful cities to be found in
the South. The schedules are so arranged
that the traveller can arrive at both places
by day and depait by day, atwi'h The
hotel accommodations of these cities are
equal to any in the country, and afford the
most comfortable and convenient resting
places for invalids who wish to break their
journey to Florida.
[Milwaukee News.l
When the thermometer gets down near
or below zero, we very naturally wish our
selves in a more congenial clime, and while
casting about to know where to go and liow
to reach the desired haven, a word from
one who has been there may not be in
appropriate at this time. Parties going to
Florida, the great and most fashionable re
sort at present (Cuba being under a cloud),
should go via Louisville, Ky., a beautiful
city, thence to Nashville, Tenn., Chatta
nooga, and so on to Dalton, thence to At
lanta, Ga., where you will be amply re
warded by a few days stay, looking over the
smartest inland town of the South. Don t
fail to take the “Magnolia route” from At
lanta to Augusta, and via Port Royal to
Savannah, giving you a chance to visit
these several line cities en route to Florida,
also an opportunity to go through in pal
ace coaches night or day over this and
connecting roads to Jacksonvi'le and other
inviting points on the St. John’s river. The
railroad and hotel accommodations of late
years have been vastly improved through
out the South, which, together with the
agreeable climate, makes it really a pleas
ure trip, and all who can spare the time
and afford the expense should not fail to
pay a visit to our Southern States th'S
winter. If all the officers of the “ Mag
nolia Road” are as efficient and gentle
manly “at home" as we find Mr. Thomas
McGill, Passenger Agent, abroad, you will
vote their route a grand success, es we
have done.
Mr. Gladstone wrote as follows to a
correspondent who asked him to intro
duce a bill for the inspection of con
vents : “I cunceive that no Institution
should be allowed in this country which
restrains the personal liberty, as com
monly understood, of its members or
inmates; but I am not cognizant of the
facts with respect to the liberty of the
inmates of nunneries on which the jus
tification of the measure you suggest
would have to rest, and I could not,
therefore, undertake to introduce a
measure on the subject, even were I
taking a larger share than is actually
the case in the general legislation of
the country.”

A negro abused a white man named
Granger on Christmas day at Eden sta

The people in North Georgia are still

Rockdale Register : The gross earn
ings of the Georgia Railroad continue
to decline, but owing to the superior
economy and management of the pre

been largely increased.
Savannah News : The Augusta Con
stilationalisi kindly alludes to a lecent
letter of Colonel Jones, of the Macon
Telegraph, written from Savannah.—
Really, we forget what the Colonel said;
but wasn’t it something about the
quality of the feed he encountered here
abouts ?
The Newnan Star in canvassing the
merits of ex-Governor Johnson’s can

thus early in order to be enabled to

splendid lawyer, and we hope he will
get beat.
Franklin Pence, of Darien, last year,
bought a shoat, for which he paid the
high price of $6. He fed to it sixteen
bushe's of corn, for which he paid
$11.55. He paid fifty cents for butcher
ing. Total cost of the pork, $19.05.
The pig weighed when butchered three
hundred and twenty-one pounds net,
which he sold for ten cents, making
$32.10. From this take the cost, $19.05,
and he has $13.05 net profit.
Que Taro, one of the principal mem
bers of the Japanese troupe now per
forming at the Savannah Theatre, was
very badly injured by the explosion of
a small toy cannon on Christmas eve
ning. Mistaking the caDnon for a pis
tol, Que Taro held it in his hand and
discharged it. The result was an ex
plosion, which tore the flesh off the in
dex finger and thumb, and otherwise
badly injured the hand.
Macon Telegraph. 28th: A smart
thunderstorm, accompanied by wind
and rain, passed over the city about
three o’clock yesterday morning. It
was a regular April shower, and left
the atmosphere as warm as ever it
was in April. For nearly a week now
we have had warm weather, more like
spring than mid-w inter. We saw but
terflies flitting about on Sunday, in
quest of flowers, while at night the fa
miliar hum of the mosquito suggested
the necessity of resurrecting bars from
their winter hiding places. “The old
est inhabitant”—the only authoritative
weather oracle—has no recollection of
a similar “spell of weather” at this sea
son of the year.
Columbus Enquirer, 25th: That gal
lant soldier and gentleman, Colonel J.
G. Blount, died Thursday at his moth
er’s residence, near Talbotton. of can
cer of the “paucreas.” Physicians will
understand the term. The deceased
was a member of the firm of Blount,
Haiman & Cos. The breaking out of
the war found him at West Point, in
the third year of the course. He at
once tendered his resignation and re
turned home. He entered the service
as Lieutenant in Dealing’s battery, and
participated ? n all the battles of the
glorious Army of Northern Virginia.
For brilliant and daring conduct in the
capture of Plymouth, N. C., under com
mand of General Hoke, he was promo
ted, on the field, to the rank of Major
of artillery. Then he arose to the
grade of Lieutenant Colonel, and
around Petersburg had command of
the artillery defenses in front of
Longstreet’s corps, and surrendered
his sword at Appomattox with the rem
nant of the noblest army the world has
ever seen. Accepting the situation,
Colonel Blount came home and engag
ed in business, for a short time with
Capt. Chipley.and then with the Messrs.
Haiman in the plow manufactory.—
Modest and unassuming, brave to reck
lessness, gifted with business tact and
an energy that was indomitable, gener
uus and whole-souled, he was one of
the truest types of the chivalrous sons
of the South.
Atlanta Constitution: There is a well
defiued rumor prevailing in high cir
cles that Gov. Sir’th has fully made
up his intentions with reference to the
troubles connected with the late ad
ministration of the State Treasury.
Suits against the sureties upon the
bonds of ex-Treasurer Jones, it is said,
will be instituted at an early day, and
doubtless before the Legislature as
sembles. It is understood chat all the
necessary data and facts are being ar
ranged for the attorney who may re
present the State, and that all those
named, upon f he bonds will be included
in the suit. The first step will proba
bly be to demand the amount claimed
to be due the State from the ex-Trea
surer, which will of course be refused
upon the plea of the said ex-Treasurer
that such amounts are not due. Then
the suits will follow.
Grant and Nutting promise to be the
defendants in the most interesting suit.
They claim that they were only tem
porary bondsmen, and that therefore
the filing of the second bond discharged
them from all obligations. The Gov
ernor insists that no notice of this was
given at the proper time or to the pro
per officers, and that they are bound
for the full amount of the bond.
This question of liability will be the
main issue, and promises to be hotly
contested. It is said that Grant and
Nutting hold a letter from ex-Treasurer
Jones, in which the latter admits to
them the fact that they were only to be
deemed his temporary bondsmen.
The reader will readily see the point
in all these matters by remembering
that by the tax digest showing, the
second bond was $70,000 short of the
required amount.
The Governor is extremely reticent
upon these matters, and refuses to say
yea or nay to any inquiries, but we
deem the fact that suits will soon be
instituted against the sureties to be
beyond peradventure.

Where Does it all Come From?—
Pints and quarts of filthy Catarrhal
discharges. Where does it all come
from ? The mucous membrano which
lines the chambers of the nose, and its
little glands, are diseased, so that they
draw from the blood its liquid, and ex
posure to the air changes it into cor
ruption. This life-liquid is needed to
build up the system, but it is extracted,
and the system is weakened by the
loss. To cure, gain flesh and strength
by using Dr. Price’s Golden Medical
Discovery, which also acts directly
upon these glands, correcting them,
and apply Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy
with Dr. Pierce’s Nasal Douche, the
only method of reaching the upper
cavities where the discharge accumu
lates and comes from. The instrument
and both medicines sold by druggists
and dealers in medicines.

Delays are always dangerous in mat
ters pertaining to health as well as
other interest. A slight cold excites no
alarm, perhaps it will get well of itself
if let alone, possibly it may, but per
haps it will not. A bottle of the cele
brated nome Stomach Bitters is a sure
fortification against the attacks of this
insiduous and universal foe.

NEW REVISED EDITION.
ENTIRELY REWRITTEN BY THE
ABLEST WRITERS ON EVERY
SUBJECT.
P>'inted from New Type, and Illustrated with
several Thousand Engravings and
Maps.
The work originally published under the
title of THE NEW AMERICAN CYCLO
PAEDIA was completed in 1863, since which
time, the wide circulation which it has at
tained in all parts of the United States, and
the signal developments which has taken
place in every branch of science, literature
aud art, have induced the editors and
üblishers to submit to an exact and thoro
ugh revision, and to issue anew edition en
titled
THE AMERICAN CYCLOPEDIA.
Within the last ten years the progress of
discovery in every department of knowl
edge lias made anew work of reference an
imperative want.
The movement of political affairs has
kept pace with the discoveries of science,
and their fruitful application to the indus
trial and useful arts, and the convenience
and refinement of social life. Great wars
and consequent revolutions have occurred,
involving national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own coun
try, which was at its height when the last
volume of the old work appeared,
lias happily been ended, and a
new course of commercial and in
dnstrial activity has been commenced.
Large accessions to our
GEOGRAPHICAL KNOWLEDGE
Have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the
last decade, with the natural result of the
lapse of time, have brought into public
view a multitude of new men, whose names
are in evury one’s mouth, and of whose
lives every one is curious to know the par
ticulars. Great battles have been fought
and important sieges maintained, of which
the details are as yet preserved only in the
newspapers or in the transient publications
of the day, but which ought now to take
their place in
PERMANENT AND AUTHENTIC HISTORY.
In preparing tlie present edition for the
press, it has accordingly been the aim of
the Editors to bring down the information
to the latest possible dates, and to furnish
an accurate account of the most recent
discoveries in science, of every fresh pro
duction in literature, and of the newest
inventions in the practical arts, as well as
to give a succinct and original record of
of the progress of
POLITICAL AND HISTORICAL EVENTS.
The work has been begun after long and
careful preliminary labor, and with the
most ample resources for carrying it on
to a successful termination.
None of the original stereotype plates
have been used, but every page has been
PRINTED ON NEW TYPE,
Forming in fact anew Cyclopaedia, with
the same plan and compass as its predeces
sor, but with a far greater pecuniary ex
penditure, and with such improvements
in its composition as have been suggested
by longer experience and enlarged knowl
edge.
THE ILLUSTRATIONS,
Which are introduced for the first time in
the present edition, have been added not
for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explana
tions in the text,. They embrace all
branches of science and of natural history,
and depict the most famous and remarka
ble features of scenery, architecture and
art, as well as the various processes of
mechanics and manufactures. Although
intended for instruction rather than em
bellishment, no pains have been spared to
insure their
ARTISTIC EXCELLENCE.
The cost of their execution is enormous,
and it is belived they will find a welcome
reception as an admirable leaturo of the
Cyclopaedia, and worthy of its high charac-
This work is sold to subscribers only,
payable on delivery of each volume. It
will be complete in Sixteen Large Octavo
Volumes, each containing about 800 pages,
fully illustrated with several thousand
Wood Engravings, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.
