Coleman has returned from Augusta, ami we undets and, fill practice his profession wiih ’»r. J. M. Turk. Mr. K. U. Orr, son of our State School Commissioner, hus been in Canton this week. He is a genia* Atlanta attorney. Last Monday, Mr, Alex McAfee’s babies got shut four times iur 50 cents at Win burn’s picture gallery, it whs such fun the little felows laughed. Our devil went to the hanging last week uud invested in an iiccnmmo- datum, “narrow-gunge’* time keeper, warranted not to vary if you let it alone. We are in receipt this week of the Sumter t'ouuiy, (Fla ) Advance, a six column folio, gotten up in good style by Geo. Pratt, editor aud manager, at Lees burg, Fl rlda, ai #2 a year. The Christian Index aud Suuthcru Bap tint, the pionutr ;>sp:;r of tlm Baptist Church in this country, has been added to our exchange list this week. This sterling periodical is worthy of tue pat ronage of all Baptiit. Mr. U. J. O’Shields, of (he Moun tain Chronicle, honored our sunctum with his presence lust week, lie is enteiprising a, change in Uis paper, in which we wish him success. Winburn has extra fine Photo graphic instillments. A blizzard struck Cuuton Inst Sat urday uud behnvvd so blizztrdly that small men (less thun this editor for instance) were at some trouble to keep to the line while trying to per ambulate the town. We cull the attention of our read ers to the advertisement oi “A Paper 12 Mouths for 10 Ceuts.’ This pa per has for its aim the advancement of the agricultural and mechaoicul interests of ttie Southern States. Winburn mu!:es four fine Pictures for 50 cents. Aii effort is being made to raise money for the pnrpos- ef buying u lot in Canton upon which to build an Episcopal church Come, gentle men of Cunton, improve this oppor tunity to bless odors and yourselves at the same time, and remember that the liberal soul shall be rntide fat. A son of Sr. Crispin in Canton, set a tack, point upward, In the bench oT his fellow-pegger, and went out) and while he w «s gone some one set one for him.

McAfee, at present .occupied by Col. Kellogg, for a parsonage. The house is valued at (1,000, and Mr. McAfee agrees to give (100 of that amount It is to be hoped that the committee, Messrs. Teasly, Pat- teason and Holland, will find the church people ready to prove their faith and others their liberality. Mr. W. M. Ellis awoke in the early part of lust Monday nig it and found his house on fire. He had been asleep but a short while, and from so.ne cause awoke and proceeded to turn over, at the same time opening his eyes. II- was in a position to see through a window, and across th« angle ot the L to his cook room, and consequently saw the flume climbing the wall of that room By throwing water on the fire, he soon succeeded in putting it out, though a few min- nt<s more would have put it beyond control. The fire originated from an ash box containing ashes with which, some fire had been taken up by nis cook lute in the a Iter noon, and placed under a table against the ceil ing. He says this is the second fire at that point from the same cause. The Atlanta Sunday Gazette of las t week contains a flue picture of Col. J. II Kstill, of the Savannah News, who is President of the Southern Press Conven tion. This accompanied by an interest ing nke*ch of his remarkable career We think our readers would find Hie Gazette a welcome vltitor to their homes. Come and get Winburn to make vour Pictures.

HICKORY FLAT SHOTS. March winds have set in with u rush, and are pretty rough on souie of our old cows. Oat sowing is about over with, and furthers have set in to break corn and cottou land—they say more corn and less cotton this year—it will probubly be better for all. We hud another fire iu this neigh borhood a few days ago, whhh ue- stroyed the carriage house and con tents of Mr. A. W. Archt-T. The loss is about (175. The cholera still rages among our hogs. [ We have known the moun tain ivy used with good effect in chol- eta before the hogs became too sick to eat. Make a tea of the ivy and make up a corn meal dough with the tea and feed it to the hogs. Ed.] Some few cases of measles in thi 4 vicinity, though of u mild form. Several cows huve died from some Cause in this precinct. Some of our farmers are not yet through picking last year’s cotton.

C Smith September 29ih, 1804; joined the Baptist church at New Hightow er in August 1870, and was baptized by R J. Ountrel. She lived an ex- umplary member up to her death, which occurred August 28th, 1880. She only lived abjut forty minutes alter she was taken. Her disease was palpitation of the heart and coire gestion nf the lungs. Sister Smith was beloved by all who knew her. It was her gieatest pleasure to render all comfortable and happy around her. She leaves a kind husband aud six children, aud many relatives to mouin her loss, but they sorrow not aa those that have no hope. She had the pleas ure of eeeing her daughter buried with Christ in baptism, and walking in her footsteps. Muy her prayers be answered in ilia salvation of all her children, and may they all meet her where parting is no more. Therefore, we the church at New Hightower, do resolve 1st, That iu the death of sister Smith we have lost one of our loving and devoted members,but we believe our loss is her eternal gain. 2nd.

A gentleman residing iu this city informed us yesterday thut a friend of his, Rev. Joel Butts, of Morgan county, had been attacked at differ ent periods of his life by more dis eases than any man in Georgia. He lias had typhoid fever, small pox scarlet fever,rheumatism,pneumonia, was parulyz d, and was struck by lightning one Sunday just be fore entering the pulpit of a country church. He hus ulso had all the the common ills thut the rest of us wicked mortals Hre heir to, such as mumps, measles, and whoop ing cough, and u few days ngo he was kicked by u Georgia mule, which came nearer sending him to his final home titan anything that had previ ously happened to him. VVe do most sincerely hope lit will recover from tins last shock, for it would in deed lie sad for n man who hus p ss- etl through so many trials to be kicked out of the world by an insig nificant Georgia mule. —Rome Cou rier. A large number of tux collectors and receivers in Ibis state, have fail— to file their bonds with the Comp troller Geneial within the forty days as the luw prescribes.

Dahlonkoa March 1—To-day will be remembered a3 marking an epoch in the history of events at Dahlonega.

He has not been to town in twenty years, He savs lie would like to take the Dublin Post, but the near- • at post office is a mile and a half from where.he livtsandl etould never get the paper at tnat distance. Though now above seventy yetrs of age he never had n eLrk in his house till about three weeks ngo when lie bought one from an agent, Mr. James Howard. He was vet/ complacent over his purchuse till he went to bed when ho found it necessary to get up and slop the clock before lie could shop. This he has had to repeat ev ery night since, starting his time piece again on rising in the morning —Dublin Post. Just after awaking from a pleasant and peaceable night sleep, and after telling his wife he would get up for hreaklast, the Rev. M. H. Reese fell back and died without a groan. This occurred at his residence on Barnes street at about C o’clock this morn ing. M r.

Albany whiskey and a game of curds caused a quarrel between Gul den Booth and Nathan Davis, both colored, as they went home from Al bany recently, which resulted in the former being fatally stabbed by the lat ter. An Elberton letter to the Atlanta Phonograph says; “Henry Hill col ore-d, who killed Thomas V. Skelton, tin jailer at Hartwell, last week, was captured by Messas. Seemon, Coker, and Bagwell in-a big wood near Bow man, Sunday evening, llill was en gaged roasting potatoes around a fire io the woods when caught. He made no resistance, confessed the murder, expressed deep regret at the occurrence, and aaya he would wil Imgly die if he could bring Skelton tp life. Two detectives came too late io be of service, llill was carried hack to jaii at Hartwell, where he is now confined. Great excitement now prevails tied lie may be lynch ed.” How time subdues and mellows passion. A few brief yeurs ugo Ru* f us B.

Now Bullock stands the most high ly respected republican in the state, lie is endorsed by the democratic pa pers for a position in Garlields cabinet, and u prominent democrat was heard to say the other day that Bullock would be the next governor of Geor gia. It is well, perhaps, to forget the past and forgive offenses, and we shall not object; but from seeing Bul lock governor of Georgia good Lord deliver us.—Albauy News and Ad vertiser. Amen ! “Wednesday a nearly fatal result followed the drinking of a quintity of whiskey by a small boy on Deca tur street. The hov in question con- ducts a fruit stand near the corner of Decatur aad Ivy, and it appears that early in the morning he had sold some apples to a friend of his own age, whose father is the propri etor of a saloon, and hud taken half a pint of rye whiskey in payment- Nearly ihe entire amount of the fi ery liquid was- swallowed by the young fruit dealer, and being the first whiskey be had ever taken, the results were most distressing. About 12 o’clock he was picked up on the railroad near the car shed in an insensible condition and taken to the drug store of Dr. Fred. King, where he received medical aid.—Con stitution.
