K; Atlanta drummers are again on the ■ “w*” path. “They are passing away”—the old " Confederates. Suddatli gave us a pleasant terday. you wish to be supported, support home industries. Several of our merchants will visit Atlanta, next week. Miss Emma M. Garrison, the belle of Gillsville, spent a few days in our town last week. The weather is getting quite cool in this section, and our summer visi tors are returning home. Weddings have about played out in this section. A marriage now would be an incident in real life. Peaches and melons have about played out, but apples and chestnuts will soon take their place. Fodder pulling time is at hand. Save every blade of it. It will be needed when the weather gets cold. “S”—your communication is well written, but it is too long. Let us hear from again, but “boil down.” The 'walking widder’ made her ap pearance last Thursday at noon. She says she will reach Philadelphia on time. A little cherub made its appearance .I><|ie house of Mr. 11. L. Davis, last Frtdav morning. It is a boy, and is doing well. The heavy freight trains which pass daily over the Air Line, betokens a lively and brisk business this fall and winter in Atlanta. Mrs. A. B. Clark has our thanks for sweet tomatoes, which are the finest we have seen this season, and beans, tomatoes and cucumbers. Rev. 1.. P. Winter, the popular pas tor of the Methodist church, is absent this week. We wish him a pleasant time, and an each and safe return. Mr. J. N. Coggins has enlarged bis store, ail'd we learn he intends going to Atlanta, next Tuesday, when he w ill buy a large stock of dry goods and groceries. |r The average small boy is about the same all over the country, ami when he sets his bead to it, we know of nothing that can prove a greater nuisance, especially about printing offices.

He is representing the favorite machine, and says he is meeting with great in this section. * The Atlanta Dispatch will publish regularly the decisions of the Supreme Court.

Last Monday we had the pleasure of visiting Ilotner in company with our young and talented friend, Claud | Estes,'Esq., of Gainesville. Claud is a ‘‘chip of the. old block.” and will, Im doubt, go to the top of the ladder. s We had a very pleasant chat with Dr. J. W. Bailey, of Gainesville, one day last week, who was in our town on professional business. Dr. Bailey is a tine physician, and has as good a reputation as any man of his age in the State. He has many warm friends here, who are always glad to see him. The union meeting of the second district of the Liberty Baptist associa tion, was held with the church of this place, Friday and Saturday last. A good number of delegates were pres _ent, and we learn all went away well pleased with their visit, to Bellton. Full proceedings will appear next week. The merchants of Atlanta, through the. Chamber of Commerce, have in vited the merchants and editors of North and South Carolina to visit t hit city on the 9th inst. About one iNOHsand tickets have been issued. Arrangements have been made with ■ road to bring the fanii ■sts of the merchants at mple accommodations at Is will be afforded at re- A large crowd is ex they will receive a warm , Ve return our thanks to I ee for an invitation, and I orry that we cannot be ' je joyous occasion. ' REV. E. S. V. BRIANT, The devoted pastor of the Baptist ‘church, has been spending several I weeks with the churches of his charge : in the country, conducting protracted i meetings with them. He has been 'greatly blest in his labors, and re ports eighty-nine additions by experi ence and baptism. Mr. Briant re signed the pastorate of the Central i (4th) Baptist church, in Atlanta, two years ago. on account of ill health, and came to Bellton feeble and ema ciated; but we are glad to announce that bis health is now almost entirely restored, and he has baptised near ‘ two hundred converts in Bellton and , the surrounding country since his ar rival among us. He is a native of j South Carolina, and studied at the 'Southern Baptist Theological Semin ;ary at Gragnville. The Herald, lead ing paper published at Spartanburg, has this to say : Rev. E. S. V. Briant.—This emi nent young minister of the Baptist church, formerly of our town, now of Bellton, Ga., has been spending a few days at his old home in our county. A visit from Mr. Briant is always pleasant, and while we would not de tract anything from our Georgia friend against their wishes, we will venture this assertion, that if he was ever to conclude, or see tit to return to bis old friends, he would receive a rousing welcome. And while lie min gles among his many new friends in j his adopted State, we hope he will I remember that many hearts where she was born, baptised and begun his ministry, still beats warm and sends j up many prayers for him. . We will only add that if the editor of the Herald has any more such men ias Mr. Briant, to spare, he can send them along—we will find room for them. Gillsville Items. As you desire news items from the i different sections of our county, I I take the liberty of representing this vicinity. I Our crops are considered good, al ' though they were somewhat injured by the drouth; but since the recent j rains, the people seem to be in fine ■ spirits. However, the cause of their j cheerfulness may, perhaps, be attri : billed partly to tile glorious result of the good meetings with which we have been blest this summer..at the different churches around us. ] A Baptist church was organized at I Gillsville, in .lime, with about thirty i members, which, through the faithful | labors of Revs. E. S. V. Briant and 1 F. I*. Conn, has recently liad-a gra ! cions revival, and the membership now numbers eighty-six. May these ; worthy servants of the Lord long be ! spared to labor in the Master's cause, ami be richly rewarded both in this life, and in the life, to come. Services I are now held in (ho upper story of . the storehouse occupied by Mr. IL M j Smith; but the memberscontemplate ; building a house of worship soon. Perhaps it is not generally known that the Northeastern Railroad Coin ! pany have, this summer built a neat : little depot at Gillsville, and business I is looking up at our station. M. —.—.

The Baptist Seminary opened its ’ fall term Monday last, with fluttering prospects, there being forty-two en rolled students, and there are others who will enter very soon. We wish it success. The cool weather for the past few days, has caused a good many of our visitors to leave. From the amount of machinery re ceived at our depot, one would think there was to be a foundry started here. Let it come. The material for the rebuilding of Candler & Henderson's corner, is be ing put on the ground. Archibald Patterson denies that he is the ugliest man in town. The North Georgian is still a great favorite with our people. There are 9,453 fleas to the square inch in the Methodist church, or at least that is what a young lady says. Stiley Bradley is improving finely. The Christian Association of this place is not well attended. We need a new hand at the bellows. The paragraphist of the Toccoa News has his hack up, and makes the startling declaration that we make “futile attempts at witticism.” Per haps some of those “futile attempts” have been wasted upon him. and. like that “mountain corn,” don’t sit well on his stomach. “We are sorry ’bout that,” Joe.
