Many fields, from live to fifty acres, of which we have heard had all the leaves stripped off, and nothing but the stalk and bud remain. It is feared it -will prove very damaging to the cotton crop generally throughout this section. An accidental hitting of the keynote of a family phrase caused a little tot to make this funny break: Her mother, in hearing her say her prayers, told her to ask the Lord to make her a good girl. “Dear Dod,” said the little thing, “pleath try and make me a dood girl—and if at firth you don't succeed try, try again,” she unexpectedly added.

Athens Banner-Watchman: We leant that an examination of the recent surveys made for the Georgia, Carolina and North ern railroad to the Savannah river will carry the line 23,000 feet, or four and three quarter miles south and east of Elberton, and the friends of that town are very un easy lest it loses the railroad. It is esti mated that to grade and equip this road w ill cost 820,000 per mile; and as Elberton has only raised f13,000 it is a matter of doubt if Gen. Hoke will find it to the inter est of his road to take in Elberton. Athens is highly favorable to Elberton, and our citizens will do all in their power to over come any obstacle that may arise.

What is used here is brought in from the county stores, where it is given in ex change for goods, or it comas direct from the farmers’ bai ns. Another augury of better times ahead lies in the fact that there is more home-cured bacon in the country than known for many years. Not more thnn one box of Western meat is now sold here where ten formerly were. The corn crop for the present year also promises to be equal to all needs. Times-Union: Monday Judge Settle, of the United States Court, will issue a final decree ordering the foreclosure and sale of the Florida Railway and Navigation sys tem, which sale will probably take place in this city in about a month.
