See to it, property holders. —We hear of a man who plauts his Irish potatoes with the “eyes” down, to keep the sand out of them. —An (jxclmngo tells of a colored man in upper Georgia with 11 fingers. We are still ahead; Brunswick lias one with 12 fingers and 12 toes. —The ladies complain of depreda tions on the part of cows and goats in the cemetery.

He wunts one (in addition to the usual qualifi cations of a good wife) capable of fill ing the following positions: cook, seamstress, washer, ironer, milkmaid, errand girl, maid-of-all-work, and generate business manager—in short, one t^ support him. Poor fellow! Wont somo sour old maid take pity on him? AS* SOUR KRAUT and CHOW CHOW Just re ceived at FRANK HALL'S, on the Bay. FRANK HALL'S, on M. &'B. R. R.—Up to the time of this writing, nothing definite has been done by the Georgia Legislature in the matter of the M. & B. R. R. It is generally thought, however that new bonds will be issued to cover the in* terest now past due, and falling due; said bopdp to run for twenty years from jjiflyv-lst, 1876, and bearing in- terefLat 7 per cent., payable semi-an- nuafiy." ' » —Well, the tannery has taken shape sure enough, and the results are be fore ns. Just two weeks ago a young cow beast was walking at large; to-day one-nf onr citizens is stepping around up to his knees in boots made of that Very calf's hide. Query—How is Unit j for quick? Competent judges say the leather is all right A stock company has been formed, and, so far as we are able to judge, the work is goiug ahead nicely. As soon as arrangements are made, the idea is to open a boot and shoe facto* ry in connection with the tannery. Now is yonr time to take stock in the enterprise. - Bishon Gross filled the Catholic pulpit of this oily Inal Suuimlii. -Bishop Beckwith is to be hero on Friday next, we learn, to dedicate the Episcopal chnrch. Explanatory. Friend Smith, of the Appeal, gently hints that we made another “erroue- ohs statement” iu giving the idea that onr authorities licensed that soap man to gamble. Now, all we have to say on the subject is this: We don't know what the city au thorities licensed him to do—it mat ters not, any way, for they were not the prosecutors; but this we do know : that the county officer, who licensed him, knew just what he was licensing him to uo, for be went to Mr. Soap Man in person, and told him that he must take out a license. Now, we don’t go back on what we have said—we stick to it, that “hav ing been licensed by proper authority, he should uot have been interfered with. If it was wrong to license, then punish the party who gave the li cense.” Whiskey or no Whiskey. The Legislature has passed a bill to regulate tne sale of liquors within the corporate limits of Emus wick—the same, however, to be submitted a vote of the people. Much can be said on either side of this question. Noue (ex* cept those who deal iu the article, and not even all of them) question the gen- (■)•'. idea t at much evil is daily oc curring iu onr midst from the improp er use of liquor. Numbers of our young meu are fast forming habits of intemperance that will paralyze their usefulness in after years—or worse still, cause them to fill drunkards’ graves. Now, to avoid this is the great end sought in the present move ment. Many think tho passage of a law excluding the sale of liquor from our midst the very thing to accom plish wliut is wanted, whilst others claim that the resalts arising from this measure will be tenfold worse than our present grievances—giving rise, they think, to secret resorts and numerous dodges to evade the law. They argne that some men are fond of whiskey, and will have it at all hazards, etc. Now we admit that there is weight in all this reasoning, but have onr doubts about the latter evil being worse than the former—we mean in its influence upon the rising generation -,-iit least, we would like to see a fair test made. Let’s try it for twelve months, or more, aud see the results. Stacy’* Private School—Department. THE EIGHT HIGHEST.

Revivals.—We read of revivals all over the country from one end to the other; a general spirit of awakening seems to be taking liofd of the people in almost every locality; why are not we similarly favored? Is it that we arc so wicked that the Good Spirit has concluded to “pass us by?” Or is it only that we nre too ppQwl to bid Him enter and “sup with us?” Let every church member pondef this. U!
