During the past two mouths nearly
$200,000 have been received by ex-
press in Athens, and this, in addition
t«> what was already here, has been
paid out for cotton. A few days ago
the banks and buyers bad to get a
new supply. One firm, Messrs.
Heaves, Nicholson A Co., have recent
ly received ->25,000 in specie, $20,000
of which was in gold. This shows
the immense cotton trade of Athens,
and it also shows that our enterprising
little city is going to have money
enough to buy all the cotton that
comes.

A False Report.
It has been reported about Athens,
that Gov. Colquitt had commuted the
sentence of Arthur, the murderer, of
Jackson cotmly, to imprisonment for
life. This statement, is being urged
ou the colored people, together with
the idea that the governor would uot
commute the sentence of Sheats, a
colored man The truth is Gov. Col
quitt respited Sheats twenty-one
days, in order to give his counsel time
to bring forward the new evidence
which they said they could get. As
they did not bring it, the law had to
take its course.
The impression sought to he made
is that Gov. Colquitt has done for a
white man what he would not do for
a colored man. A citizen of Athens
telegraphed to Col. Avery, tlie gov*
eruor’s secretary, to learn the truth of
the matter. Ho received the follow
ing reply :
“ Gov. Colquitt has not commuted
Arthur’s sentence in Jackson- county.
The statement is untrue.
I. W. Avery.”
It will thus he seen that here is an
other campaign slander overtaken and
disposed.

been entirely cured by the use of
Brewer’s Lung Restorer. His con
dition was very alarming to all of us
and we did every thing we could think
of to benefit him. without succes-
until 1 got him a bottle of your Lull
Restorer. He began to improve after
the first dose and before lie had taken
i wo bottles was entirely cured, where
I h ared no cure was possible, and I
most cheerfully recommend it to a’l
who have any affections of tlie Lungs,
lie was coughing and spitting all the
time, so incessantly that it prevented
his sleeping at night and what little
sleep he got diil not refresh him in the
least. Had but little appetite and
since he began the use of Brewer’s
Lung Restorer has slept well and his
appetite is very much better. I have
never seen anything act so promptly
and effect a cure in so short a time.
Wishing you great success and hoping
the above may influence many to try
Brewer’s Lung Restorer where they
need a medicine to strengthen and re
store the Lungs to a healthy condition.

day before yesterday. He had never

however, is positive that he was.
The mad-stone which belongs to
Mr. John Pruitt, \vu9 sent to Akins,

that the wound had festered, and the

Street Drummers.
One of our merchants complains of
the negroes who are employed by
other merchants, as street drummers,
and he says he is not alone in this
complaint—that ail the merchants
who do uot practice it, are strongly
opposed to it. It seems that only a
very few merchants resort to this
questionable method of obtaining
trade, and each one of them employs
several negioes. These negroes are
bold iu their solicitations, aud make
themselves obnoxious not only to tlie
merchants in front of whose doors they
ply their trade, but also to the people
from the country, who do not like to
he thus annoyed, but who .prefer to
trade where they choose uumolestcd.
