During last week J H Gain was
out on the east side of Ball moun¬

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.

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.
