No county is belter represented in the legislature than Clarke. Mr. M. B. McGinty has got well enough to be out. Mrs. W. B.

Now that a Sunday is between us and the election, we may all feel bet tor Captain J. C. Tamer, ofrfafjer- sham, is greeting his many friends in Athena. Jndge George C. Thomas, of Waikinsviile, was in the city yester day. The lalest accession to the Clarke county bar, is the handsomest man of them all. The article on the election signed “ G,” in a recent Banner has been greatly praised. C. E. Wingfield has been confirmed by the renate, judge of the ootmly court of Wilkes. Miss Lucy Hull, a charming young belle of Savannah, is visiting Miss Claude Thomas. The University Reporter is one paper tliat wc can read without skip ping a paragraph.

About three yesterday afternoon, the wind shifted around to the North, and by morning (we write this at night) there will doubtless be a freeze. There is some talk among the young ladies of Athens, of organizing a cook ing club. Let it be done. We want to be elected honorary visitor and member of the sampling committee. Consider our application made. Not long ago, Messrs. Reaves, Nicholson & Co., sold a car load ol salt to a house in Crawford for ten ceDts a -sack less than it could be bought for iu Augusta. That’s the way these Athens merchants do things. Neuralgine is undoubtedly a medicine of great merit, or it would not receive the endowment of so many well known and prominent citizens.
