The latest turn taken on agents was by some young ladies in the upper part of the county who po ¬ litely invited the agent into the cotton field and after tendering him a hoe let him alone in his glo - ry.

Mrs. Margaret Carney, wife of Andrew Carney, died Friday night last atter a brief illness. She was born in Ireland, coming to this country when quite young. Her industry and kindness were special ly commendable traits in character. The burial at the O’neal family ground on Sabbath was largely at¬ tended. To the sorrowing hns band and children we extend our sincerest condolence. On last Saturday night John Pulliam, a colored man who lived about a mile and a half from town, went to bed apparently as well as be bad ever been, but to the sur¬ prise of the colored family with whom he was living li8 was found dead in bed Sunday morning. Cor oner Holland held, an inquest over the body on Sunday afternoon. The jury after listening to the ev¬ idence retur led wi.h the following verdict: That the deceased came to his death from some eause un kltOWft The communication from DOT did not reach us in time for publi¬ cation last week- He will please send in one day sooner.

Go at once to Mrs. W J Johnson, general agent for the New Home Sewing Machine, and purchase for a nomi¬ nal sum one of the latest improved extra working machines, then the long continued wish for possessing a new, desirable Home in this country will be gratified. During last week J H Gain was out on the east side of Ball moun¬ tain looking after his cattle, when suddenly, to hiB unhappy surprise, a large black bear was seen brows ing among the underbrush of the lonely mountain side. The gen¬ tleman leveled a breech loading shot gun which he bora upon his shoulder, and discharged three shots at the ferocious animal; some of them taking effect caused the bear to run wildly down the moun¬ tain, while the man well pleased with Ihe course, left in the oppo¬ site direction. NoTioE--Notice is hereby given that at the next session of the Gen¬ eral Asseinbiy an act will be intro¬ duced entitled an act to incorpo¬ rate the town of Spring Place in the county ot Murray, so as to ex¬ tend lhe limits of said town, to authorize the commissioners to try for any violation of the liquor laws; and to further authorize and em¬ power the commissioners thereof to exercise full police regulations for the government of said town, to levy and collect a property tax: to expend all moneys raised in the payment of a marshall and in re airing 6ide walks, bridges and the streets; to enforce the collections of all fines and forfeitures by im¬ prisonment or execution. *• :% Murray County. The geographical location of Mutiay, as can be seen by refer¬ ence to the map, is quite as desir¬ able as that of any county in' the state. Bounded on the north by lhe State of Tennessee, on the east by the counties of Fannin and Gilmer, on the soulh by Gordon, and on the west by Whitfield, she is thus found pleasantly surround¬ ed wealth, intelligence aud moral¬ ity. And Dame Nature, we think, has been more lavish in the be stowments of numerous and vari¬ ous endowments upon this section than upon any other of the pro¬ gressive ''empire state of the south.” For here we find more ot a blending, it seems, than else¬ where. Our countless resources, which consist mainly of fine fertile lands, rich deposites of valuable minerals, a climate unequaled for health, and the clear streams that rush down from the mountains that skirt us on the east furnish a wa ter power which is vastly inesti¬ mable. The population of Mur¬ ray, as shown by the last census, is 8,503, containing no city or large town, this is almost wholely a ru» ral population. The wealth of the county, as given by the last assess, ment, is $1,395,951, which is only | about a two thirds estimate of the real value of the property. Agriculture is receiving more al tentionatihe tention at the nresent present m in Mnrrav Murray than any other one thing in the great field of industry. The coun¬ ty being interspersed, as it is, by quite a number of creeks and ers ,each supporting along its banks a beautiful productive valley, which is laid off into well tilled, finely improved fai ms of different sizes. And not only are the lands along the Btreams valuable for agricultu ral pursuits, but also tho uplands throughout the county produce abundant crops of cotton, wheat, corn, clover, various kinds of grasses and a number of other pay¬ ing growths. A little travel among the ru ral districts is all that is need e d to convice the doubtful that no where in Georgia will be found more thrifty farmers and beautiful fields than in Murray. Notice. Let every who is tired and sleepy come to us and we will give him rest—by putting on his bed our comfort giving bed springs. We have commenced lo manufacture the popular Excelsior spring on an extensive scale, and if you can’t wait until one - of our waggons comes to your housa, call up stairs over the Cole stoie where we make them and you shall be suppled without money, and without price—till you find they are what you want, and then you can pay us $5,00 iu -‘truck and turnover” and not miss the pay, at the same time getting more for less money than ever be'ore. Call round if you don‘t wish to purchase, and see them made. Ask your neighbor who has bought, what they are, No one who has used them can at ford to give them up, or will take double what they cost and do with out them. The physicians pro nounce them healthier than any other bed, and recomend them for use in sickness. They are cooler than any kind of bed and save double their cost every year in wear and tear of feathers and bed¬ ding. Try them and be convinced. Ramsey. Ovbey, Moss & Co, Hall's Chapel School. The rail term of Hall’s Chapel school will commence on the 1st Monday in July next- It is located about two and a half miles from Cohutta Springs, in this county, in a community noted for health, mor ality and intelligence, affording at present one of the first Sabbath schools in the counfy.
