Jesse Weston, in answer to Charlie
Pendleton’* inquiry about ‘‘wine sauce”
being at the Fair, says :
“Como np, Pendleton, wo will snooze
around and Bee if there is any “wino
► mice,” The smiles of Southwest Geor
gia's fairest ladies will be enough wine
nf sauce for your long-aufforing soul.—
We hate a rich time mellowing up for
nil of our edi’ irial friends who come to
our Fair. They will see one of the
prettiest and most artistically built
Pair gr uinda in the State ; they will
ree more earnest emulating; ferror
shown by our people thnn was ever
thought to bo exorcised ; they will hoc
life, peace, plenty, prosperity and hap
hiiieH*, each smiling like a locomotive
head-light, and wrapping tho scene in
glamour of brightness, beauty, cheer
fulness and conical incut (hut will nev
t r be forgotten.”
When it comes to making every body
feel good all over, Jesse can beat ’em
all.

The following item wo slip from tho

liitrotun ought to have this rider in his
circus:
‘‘Yesterday evening persons in the
neighborhood of the livery stables were
umused at a negro and a mule. A dro
ver had an do nnd he said nobody
could ride him, and nobody did ride
him until Charley Greene made a pass
at him. He made several efforts before
he coul l straddle tho mule, but finally
ho succeeded, and then the fun opened
in earnest. The air around seemed
full of negroes and mules. The tuule
first got up on tiis hind feet and tried
to look over the court house. He tlicu
changed Olid*, and kicked at the moon,
tut tlir negro was still there. 11c next
turned a couple of aomersauha and lit
on his tail, nnd then turned quickly
around to look for his rider. Tho ri
der wns there. This concluded tho ex
ercises, nnd tho mule was ss tame as n
I-ini. U did look ns if the mule could
have thrown off a jdeeo of tar stuck to
his back, but that “tiiggoi” had no no
tion of changing base without carrying
■ bout half a mule with him. They are
gelling tip a bet now that that boy esu
ride a cyclone. ’

Most Fiendish Murder on Rec
ord-
Leavenworth, Kansas, March 10.—
Olio of the most fiendish nnd diabolical
murders ever committed in this county
recently took place near ilop;n Statiou,
a young mnn named Andrew Butts be
ing tho victim. Il was traveling with
a companion named George Stilttsman,
bolh being from Mount Carmel, North
umberland county, Pa. While bo and
liis companion wore sleeping by the
oamp-fire, Hires tramps, whose names
arc unknown, came up and asked per
mission to sleep by tho fire. This be
ing refused, tbo tramps wont away, and
the two young men went to sleep again.
Ab ut midnight Butts awakened to
fiud his dot In s iu flames and a burn
ing railroad lie laid across his body.—
Ito tore the burning rags from his body,
but he was ro badly burned before he
could do o that the fi -sh dropped from
bis body in various places, H- crawl

bis wouiklh lied up, and waa thou ta
ken to the poor house in thi city,
where be died ibis morning. Hi* com
panion bus n-t been socn since that

HY 'I Y HO.
This week bus been an unusually qui
et one in our littlo town, an is general
ly the ease, Sunday pugged away with
out any religious services. Wle.it is
tho mutter? I)o tbo ministers of the
Gospel think that wo arc good enough
and need not the prayers of the right
eous ? 1 urn a church member, and
lictc sometimes to join tho congregv
tion in singing tho praises of Him who
died, that wo might have eternal life.
There is, I believe, religious services
held at the Court Housoonoc a mouth,
at candle lighting in the evening. I
being an invalid, cannot go out at night
without great physical suffering, and,
consequently am deprived of tho bene
fit and pleasure of bearing tbo word of
God preaohed.
Last Sunday was a real March day.
A heavy North-West wind blow all day,
and tho ground being very dry, tho
dust was almost stilling. Monday, how
ever, was mild and spring like, and so
the weather continued till Wednesday
night when there oamo a considerable
ah ower, lasting well into Thursday j
morning. I dare say that our neigh
boring farmer* aro rejoiced at it because
they had begtu to complain of the
drouth.
With tho exception of a few carts
which came in for guano, we have had
few visitors this week, and as a result,
our merchants have generally passed
their time lyiug ou their couuters, and
some of them arc already complaining
ot dull times. I wonder if a generous
use of printers ink wouldn’t help their
trade? 1 have always seen tboso mer
chants mist prosperous who did the
most advertising. I have no doubt
that a good long advertisement would
j bcnifii tlnir trade. I da'e say, bowev
! er, they are like the man who lately
reliiMid to credit a darky, Ou the ground
i that he didn't wish to sell his tobacco,
; tor fear ho would ae: out before he ro
| ccived the great spriug stock which he
! had ordered.
Our people are beginning to talk a
i great deal about the coaiiug election foi
[ representative in Congress. So far as
L am eau ascertain their vb ws, they
generally wish t> run the liou. John
L. Harris. I have no doutt that he
cao receive the nomination, if he would
signify his willingness to accept it, and
he ought to do ibis at cucc, so that Ins
fnend* should have tune to orgaunc
their forces. Asa second choice, our
people prif r Col. John C. Nielrob,
and I have no reason to doubt that he j
[ would make an able nnd bonest repre- !
! sentative. The candidate should, as a ;
matter of justice, he given to the coun- j
trv Sooth of the Altamaha. There are
many i#as >ns why ibis should he so. i
For several year*. Savannah has had
the representative, and for one, I be- j
lieve in rotatiou in office
Why do not otir people devote more !
of their time to the r<aiing of sheep?
The few which I have seen ate laige,
and liavo heavy fleeces, arid I known of |
no diseases amongst them in ibis sec- |
tion of country. A friend of mine liv- ,
ing near the Altamaha has a herd of
several hundred, “and h’ncy pay bitn in
wool and the increase of liis flock, at 1
least seventy cents ter head, aDd these j
sheep are the common breed, having
no inter-ir.ir.ture of the finer breeds
They receive no attention whatever, un
less to be caught and marked, and \
sheared. If they were herded at night i
as they should be, the manure would j
more than pay for the trouble, besides
protecting them from the depredation
nf the miserable eur dogs which annu
ally destroy hundreds in Georgia. I
know of no business in which a man
could invest two or three thousand dol
lars which would pay such an in'erest
on the investment. In Coffee county
there are a good many sheep, and the
rearing of them is receiving increasing
attention, and the consequence is that
Coffee is one if the meat prosperous
counties in Georgia. Their sheep do
not intaifere with their fanning opera
tions, an ! by the sale of wool, and the
surp’us of their fl cks, they receive a
sum of money every spring, just
at the time when the farmer need* mon
ey to aid him in eariying on his farm,
Were our people dispos'd todo so, they
might, in ten years, make the wire
grass region of Georgia ono vast rihoep
walk, nnd the lands which now sell for
from twenty-five to fifty cents per acre
would be worth at least five dollars per
acre, and instead of purchasing guano
at an enormous price to nianuro their
lands, they would have them enriched
by the manure made annually by lluir
stock, Hi us becoming independent
of tho Commission Merchant-,
who now own them ; hut to do
this, there must be a dog law. Lot our
next Legi-latnro pngs a I nr imposing a
tax of fivo dollars each on every dog in
tho Stale, except Ihoso known as the
shepherds dog, or any dog used exclu
sively to guard sheep. Thus we will
get rid of the thousands of worthless
curs which now follow at the heels of
every loafer, which at night stcnl sheep
for their living, wliilo tuo many of their
masters are at tbc same time sicaling
hogs. If the General A-scmbly fail to
pass such a law, then let 1 lie farmers
organize their forces, throw over board
the one horse politicians, and cross road
lawyers who now represent them, and
send some of their own men to repre
sent them, and my word for it, the fir
mer will Imvc the protection which lias
hitherto been denied to him. If the
wire-grass region of Georgia is fully de
veloped, it must bo by sbeep and stock
t aismg.
In a few years the yellow pioe timber
w'v'l tie cut iff the laud an-l sold, and
the lands u liiuh ire now held exclusive
ly fur tho yellow pine timber, will bo
far more profitably employed in raising
grass, i&o., to feed the thousands of
slu-cp, cattle, &e., which can bo raised
her ,if propelty attended to.
I propose to wide up- n tho subject
of stock r.ising in the wire-grass re
gi n of Georgia from time to lime, and
if I ean inly induce our people to turu
their attention iu that direction, I shnll
foil that I have done more good to
my tui’ivi' Stato than a thousand cross
road p li iciain.

To nnJertnd our method of bu-ine9p, we have endeavored to explain it in
uumiatukable language and for which we request a oarsful perusal We beg to
caution tnc public to try to discriminate between onr dealings and that of mer
chants who offer a few domestic goods only cheap as a hair, to catch the unwarv t
aud make Ibem believe that they sell everything equally as low; the iutgiligenn
reader will easily understand this. We offer our goods for inspection to every
body. for we will send samples of Dry Goods, with prices attached, to any one wh#
will write us for them aud give everyone a cbauco to see for themselves.
We have endeavored to enumerate the principal articles kept in a first-o!as"
Dry Goods House, and attached the prices We are aw are that this is sufficient
to o nvey a correct idea of the quality. Those who desire to pu> chase, we will
upon application, send such samples, with prices attached, as they may desire
when they can form a much better opinion and select for themselves Not I: 1
than a million of people have dealt with us and we are sine we have satisfied a i.
A.ny one displeased with his purchase caR return the goods to us at our expense
and we will return the money. On twenty dollars w- rth of goods we prepay
freight to the nearest station. We make no charges f r packing or dray age, 'We
don’t sell one article low and make it up on the others,
WE RETAIL OUR GOODS AT WHOLESASE PRICES,
i
Which accounts for our Wonderful Success.
We don’t advertise to humbug, but we talk plain business and mean it. We Fell
one yard as low as we would ten thousand. Those who are tird of paying cx
horbitant prices and appreciate the value of money, arc invited to send tbeir
orders, which we will fill C. O. D. witn privilege to examine, or can tend tha
tn 'Dty with tLe order.
