MARCH 1,1883. The farmers of Burks county •re planting large crops of Irish potatoes. The Waynesboro Academy is Bow in a very flourishing condi tion, and has in attendance about one hnndfed pupils, and new ac- eesskma are weekly added to the Member. The Mieenmippi is now rising •n inch an hour, and great fears •re aprehended from back water in Arkansas and Louisiana, and of breaks in the levees. The great floods of the Ohio, and other rivers of the west, are slowly abating. At Cincinnati! and Louisville the river rose above the highest water mark ever known, the floods of 1832. The man who takes no interest in his county paper will always lie found to be devoid of public spirit and county pride. At least, thin is our judgment—Telegraph A Mesvenger. All the li quorsalloons in Dal ton will lie closed after .Tune 15th next This action was taken by the City Council on tho expres sion Of a feeling of a large major ity of the citiseusat a mass meet ing. There is an apple tree in Ra- bnn county that is probably the largest on the continent It shades the greater part of a farm yard, and in one season tho owner gathered 210 bushels of apples from it, besides what his stock destroyed. He receives 25 cents per pnshel for them. Last week Joe Brown voted in the Senate to reduce the revenue on whiskey to fifty cents per gal lon. His was tho only vote in the affirmative. Our unc e Jo seph has a great deal of the Davy Crockett in liis make up, when he is oonvinoed that he is riplit it is hard indeed to warp his judge meat. Congress will adjourn Satur day niaht, after a long wearisome donate upon the "tariff bill," and really but little has been accom plishod for the relief of tho bur dened tax payer, and why? The Republican party are afraid of the elephant now ou their hands, and the Democrats are afraid dy- jng, the republicans wilj bequeath the aforesaid quadruped to them. Atlanta, not satisfied with the handsome and best appointed Female Institute in the state, now clamors for another, but of the male persuasion.

Dallas moved along in the oven tenor of her way, i util the next great and startling event was about to transpire, viz: tho build ing of a raihoad through here.

Phonograph: A mnoli married man resides at Simon's Clan, in this State, whose matrimonial ree ord is really extraordinary. He is eighty years of age, au<l has had the extreme felicity of being mat- t ed nine times, his niuth wife supporting his dtcliuiug years Fifty-three childreu are entitled to call him father, and at a receut family gathering over throe hun dred of his lineal dependents were present.

Once upon a time, when tho red man wandered up and down these old red hills of Georgia, and these old tottering sires of ours, now left to tell us of them, were just gaining a foothold among them in these wierd for ests, this little plant nourished, and could be found iu abundance. Bnt now, like the red man, it has disappeared, and can you tell why* No, well, we’ll answer for you. "Poor Lo" exterminated it, gathering every plant that could be fonnd and bartering it at the trading {posts 'for "fire water," etc From this country it w.is export ed to Englaud and China. Now it seems practical to us if some enterprising man would take hold . of the culture of Ginseng he wou'd realize in a short white more money to the acre than iu any other crap. Ginseng is worth $1.50 per pound, and is indige nous to this country, and,* hence, it will grow right along. Plant cat nnX Kuttiro of Its Present County TuWn, Dallas.
