MACON KNITTING FACTORY.
The Progress of a New Industry in
Macon.
The manufacture of hosiery in Macon
has progressed so quietly that few of our
citizens are aware of the fact that a steam
factory, employing a force of sixty hands,
is in active operation.
About the first of February Messrs. Howes
& Smith moved into their new building on
the lot of the Bibb Manufacturing Com
pany, on Second street. They procured the
best machinery for the manufacture of
seamless hosiery and went quietly to work
to oontend with the difficulty of employing
untrained labor. The result of the labor is
best shown in the fact that the produot of
the mill has been increased from thirty
dozen to over one hundred dozen a day.
The advantages Macon offers for this spe
cies of manufacturing are many. The fa
cilities for procuring yarns of superior qual
ity aud color, without cost of freight and
without delay, are all important. Ou the
strength of these points alone, the Macon
Kuitting Faotory is enabled to compete suc
cessfully with Northern and Eastern manu
facturers of the same goods. Macon ho-
siery has been sold in quantity as far Sonth
as Tennessee, Florida, and as far northwest
as Minneapolis, Minnesota, and has found
its way into almost every Western State.
'I his would not be possible if the prodact
was not the equal in price and quality of
that of the Eastern mills.—Telegraph and
Messenger.
The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle is of the
opiniou that foreign immigation will not
turn toward the South until the North and
Weet have been filled to overflowing. There
is moch troth in the position. The negro
popnlation in the Sonth is a barrier to im
migration. Foreigners, as a rale, have great
repugnance to the negro race.
The growing tobacco crop is the largest
ever planted in this oonntry. Virginia,
North Carolina and Kentucky planted more
than ever before.
The ladies of the South will never have a
better opportnnity of displaying their handi
work than at the New Orleans Exhibition.
Abont 6011000 persons are engaged in the
mining and manufacturing business going
on in the Sonth.
GEORGIA.
Our Lumpkin contemporary regards a
good eorn crop in Stewart oonnty as a cer
tainty.
Machinery for the new ootton press at
Augusta has arrived aud is being put in
position.
“A good corn crop for Burke is assured,”
says the Tt ue Citizen. Some of the best
farmers of the State live in Burke county.
Oor Albany contemporary announces Pri
mus Jones’ ‘‘first bale.” It was bought by
Mr. A. B. WcbIow at 15}ij cents per pound.
It is hard to alter old habits.
The Waynesboro True Citizen makes the
following large estimate of the ootton crop
Bnftfr “f h “ crop promises well
in our oonnty. We expeot a 30,000 bale crop
this year for old Burke.”
It is supposed that the farmers of Put
nam County will pay out in money or its
equivalent for meal for the present year
about $. r i0,000; for corn, not less than thirty
car loads, aggregating 15 000 bushels, about
$15,000, summing np $55,000
On July 21 the law raising the license for
selling liquors in Alapaha to $3,000 went
into effect, and the only saloon in town
closed its doors. There are several other
plaoes in the country where whiskey can be
got, but in September the last lioense ex
pires, and it will then cost $3,000 per an
num to sell whiskey anywhere in Berrien.
At Rome on Saturday the trustees of
Shorter College reoeived from the executors
of the late Alfred Shorter $45,000, being the
legaoy left to the college in his will. Of
this atnonnt $5,000 will be nsed at once to
improve the grounds and purchase a tele
scope. The balance is invested, and the
interest will be nsed to pay the tuition of
poor and deserving girls.
EA most horrible accident occurred at the
steam cotton faotory in Columbus on Sat
urday last. Sim Hunter, a robust negro
man employed at the mill, had his right
arm caught in the picker and literally torn
from the socket at the shoulder, leaving
only about two inches of the bone below
the shoulder point. The arm was mashed
into a perfect jelly. Hunter was taken to
the hospital, but, it is thought, will not re
cover,
The Macon Telegraph says: “The Georgia
yam will be prominent in the front of the
procession during the coming fall. The
sweet potato crop, the most important crop
of the eastern shore of Maryland aDd Vir
ginia, hss been almost mined by a disease
which sfiliots Irish potatoes, and known as
phytnpthora inftstans. Hundreds of acres
an Northampton County, Va., have been
ploughed under to be replanted in oorn, so
as not to lose all the money expended in
fertilizers. Northampton County has al
ready lost $100,000 this year and the disease
is still spreading, causing great alarm.”
The lumber men of Georgia and Alabama
held a Convention in Atlauta last week and
passed a resolution that if neoessary for the
protecting of the milling interest a stock
company of the sawmill men should be or
ganized and a lumber yard be opened in
Atlanta, to be conducted through an agent
to be elected by the board of five directors.
This stock oompany to advance a oertain
per cent, of cash, to the shipper, and then
hold the lumber until the oompany can dis
pose of it to the dealers, and then they will
remit balance to shipper, retaining a small
per cent, which is to be used as a fund to
operate the business and to defray inci
dental expenses, etc. Another meeting of
the pssociation which was formed is to be
held on August 14, when a permanent or
ganization will be effected.
SOUTH CAROLINA.
The interesting ceremony of laying the
corner-stone of the Ebenezer Baptist
Church was performed on Tuesday last at
St. Helena Island.
There is some talk of extending the Che-
raw and Chesterfield telephone line to
Homsboroand White Plains in the upper
part of Chesterfield County.
Over 100 hands are now at work on the
South Carolina Pacifio Railroad, and it is
expected that trains will be running to Ben-
nettsville by the middle of October next.
The Sumter Advance learns that Bingham,
the mail agent between Sumter and Charles
ton, has been removed, and that Johnston
Andrews has been appointed in his place.
The reason assigned for Bingham s removal
is that he “went back on Robt. Smalls, the
Seventh Distriot Representative.
Among a lot of guns purchased in New
York by Mr. M. S. Bailey, of Clinton. Lo
rens County, was found a Springfield nfle
which was evidently the property Con
federate soldier: “Upon the stook of < the
gnn was neatly carved the following . Simp
son Daly, Co. E, 14th Ark. Volunteer Infan
try. C. S. A.
The Sumter Advance says : “First class
opening for a Northern capitalist—the Sum
ter Cotton Factory. We do not say this
blindly; we are advised. Any Northern man,
with $50,000 capital, can make a good in
vestment right here in our town in the cot
ton factory now closed for the want of
meanB to carry it on.
The Port Royal and Augusta Railway is
erecting an iron bridge over Whale Branch.
Since the sale of this property there has
been constant improvement in the road bed
and rolling stock, and this new improve
ment will greatly add to the security of the
passengers and will be far less expensive in
the long run to the oompany.
R. A. Stewart, a young eolored man, who
has for a length of time been a clerk in the
postoffioe in Columbia, and who was recent
ly gradnated from the law department of
Allen University, and also admitted to prac
tice at the reoent examination before the
Supreme Court, has been appointed an in
structor in law aud secretary of the law fac
ulty of Allen University.
FLORIDA.
Florida grape growers count upon an in
come of $100 per acre.
The estimated value of the weekly exports
from Key West, Fla., to New York is $07,
000.
Key West has a population of about 14,000
and yet not a beggar is to be seen on her
streets.
The ostrich farming experiment at San
ford has proved a failure. The lari. of the
six imported birds died a few days ago.
Arrangements have been made for the
Hon. John G. Carlisle and the Hon. J. C. S.
Blackburn, of K“ntncky, to deliver fonr
speeches each in Florida during the present
campaign.
Over a million pounds of sea island ootton
was shipped from Lake City last year.
There was also fifty cars of cotton seed,
each car containing 22 500 pounds, making
a total of seed of 1,125,000 pounds.
Thornton Hughes, a former servant of
Princess Murat, died last week at his horn ,
a portion of the Murat plantation in Flori
da, that was given him at the death of his
mistress. He was buried by the colored
Masons, and his funeral was attended by an
unusually large number of his race.
The Key West News says: This city is al
ready overpopulated, and yet every vessel
which comes here from Nassau and Cuba
brings more immigrants. It is hard to see
how this increasing poulation can be main
tained here. Poverty and distress must fol
low.
Dr. 8 B. Conover has gone to Florida.
He is now a surgeon in the United States
Marine Hospital Service, and is to be
placed in charge of the new station at Eg-
mont Key, at the month of Tampa Bay. It
is said that he will devote most of his time
to politics, with an eye to Senator Call’s
seat.
There are about 200 men in Morgan <fc
Reynolds’ camp grading the Plant Invest
ment Company’s road through Oriole. The
Gordon Railroad is pushing between Wild
wood and Sumterville; also, the Florida
Railroad and Navigation Company are at
work along the line between Panasoffkee
and the Withlaoooohee River. These roads
are in South Florida.
The Tavarps Herald says: The outlook
for the orange crop this year is splendid.
The reports from all parts of the Scale are
not in, bat all those heard from report
spleudid prospects for a large crop. The
old grov-s are bearing heavily, some of the
trees being loaded heavier than ever before,
while the number of young groves just
coming into bearing help to swell the total.
KENTUCKY.
A Louisville man worth $50,000 left one
dollar to his wife in his will.
A man in Adair county, Ky., lost 1,400
chickens with cholera.
The Kentuoky Christian Sunday-School
Association meets in Paris, August 11,12
and 13.
Clover six feet high is being cut in Bour
bon county.
.There are 1,500 head of thoroughbred
short-horned oattle within a radius of ten
miles from Mt. Sterling.
A vessel with 10,000 barrels of Kentucky
whisky left Newport News last week for Eu
rope to esoape the Federal tax.
Reports from many parts of Kentucky
say that tobacco plants are trenching badly,
and that the crop will be a short one.
Five thousand acres of tobacco will be
raised in Bourbon oounty this year. Ten
years ago not ten acres were raised.
Frankfort people must be good drinkers,
as each 06 of them support a bar-room.
There are 2,490 male adult citizens and 36
saloons.
Louisville is getting more particular than
ever about the display of the nude in art.
No show picture that displays a female neck
(giraffes excepted) more than a yard and a
half long will now be allowed to be posted
in that city.
NORTH CAROLINA.
There is an extinot volcano near Cleve
land, N. 0., which, as early as ten years ago,
was seen to emit great volumes of fire and
lava at night. Sinoe these emissions the
mountsin, called Lone Mountain, has
oracked open, and the cracks are continual
ly getting larger and the mountain is being
slowly swallowed into the earth.
The Elizabeth City Falcon says: “The
magnitude of our fishing interests oan be
partially approximated when we remember
that the seines make about five hauls every
twenty-four hours, snd that the usual catch,
in an ordinarily good season, is from 15,000
to 25,000 herrings eaoh haul, the oaten of
shad being very much more diffioult to re-
duoe to any average standard. As hard as
it may be for a stranger to the fishing bn«i
ness to believe it, there is indisputable evi
dence to show that at a fishery on the
Chowan River, not more than twenty-five
miles from Edenton, as many as 400,000
herrings have been taken at one haul, and
only a year or two since a seine on the lower
sound surrounded such an enormous quan
tity that after saving and selling half a mil
lion fish from the number, the balance were
allowed to esoape, as facilities for saving
them were exhausted.”
A LAB AHA.
The crops from Selma to Greensboro, Al
abama, look glorious.
Choctaw oounty, Ala., sends to the New
Orleans Exposition a hewed stick of yellow
pine 80 feet long, 42 inches square in the
middle, and containing 11,700 feet, board
measure. Another of oypress, from the
Danner Land and Lumber Company, is 65
feet long, S feet across at the large, and 70
inches at the small end.
There is very perceptibly a more hopeful
feeling among business men in North Ala
bama. A bank offioer told a reporter that,
judging from present indications, the mer
chants of Birmingham, as a rule, will be in
a better condition next fall than they have
ever been.

WOMAN.
Her Health and Happiness Are Mat
ters of Great Concern to All
Mankind.
Near Marietta, Ga.
Some months ago I bought 8 bottle of Dr. J
Bradfield’s Female Regulator, and used it in my
family with' great satisfaction. I haTe recom
mended it to three families, and they have found
it to be just what is claimed for it. The females
who have used it are now in perfect health and
able to attend to their bonsebold duties.
Rev. H. B. JOHNSON.
8tate of Georgia, Troup County.
I have examined the receipe of Dr. Josiah
Bradfield, and pronounce it to be a combination
of medicines of great merit in tbe treatmentof
diseases of females for which he recommends it.
Wm. P. Beasley, M. D.
Springfield, Tenn.
Dr. J. Bbaefield—Dear Sir: My daughter has
been sufferii g lor many years with that dreadful
affliction known as Female Disease, which has
cost me many dollars, and notwithstanding I had
the beet medical attendance, could not find relief.
I have used many other kinds of medicines with
out any effect. I had just about given her up, was
out of heart, but happened in the store of W. W
Eckler several weeks since, and he, knowing of
my daughter’s affliction, persuaded me tn buy a
boitle of your Female Regulator. She begun to
improve at once. I was so delighted with its
effects that 1 bought several more bottles of it.
ar,d. knowing what I do about it, if to-day one of
my family was suffering with that awful disease,
I would have it if it cost $60 a bottle, for I can
truthfully say it has cured my daughter sound
and well, and myself and wife do most heartily
recommend your Female Regulator to be just
what it is represented to be.
Respectfully, H. D. FEATHEBSTON.

A Few Worsts from i’aplata K.
W. Bunaer, a Well-Known
Citizen ot Macon.
In August, 1881, nearly three years ago, my
son, who was at that time living at Clinton,
Ga., came over to see me with the sad intel
ligence that his wife was in the last stages of
consn mption and that her physician had pro
nounced her case hopeless. I went Immedi
ately over, and I felt that nothing conld be
done. She was coughing and spitting inces
santly. aDd at times would discharge from
ber lUDgs a large quantity of pns or matter—
could not sleep or retain anything on her
stomach, and was, in fact. In the last stages
of the disease. This was about tbe tiu.e you
began to advertise Brewer’s Long Restorer*
arid, as my son expresseda desire to give It
to hlB wife, two or three bottles were pro
cured and with scarcely » vestige of hope we
commenced giving It to.her in small doses,
gradually increasing the quantity untli the
prescribed dose was reached. She began to
improve alter a few doses, and continued to
do so daily until she was finally restored to
life and health, and is to-day perhaps in bet
ter health than ever before. She is subject to
colds, but a few swallows of Brewer’s Lung
Restor(which she is never without) relieves
her Immediately. I consider her restoration
to perfect bealto a miracle, for wolch she is
Indebted to Brewer's Lung Restorer. My son
is almost a mono aniac on tbe subject of
Brewer’s Lung Restorer aud never lets an
opportunity pass where he thinks snch a
medicine would be required, that, he does not
speak of it in most glowing terms. Not long
since a Northern gentleman on his way to
Florida heard of this cure and was induced by
my son to give it to bis invalid wife, and she
was cured as if by magic.”
Mr. Charles Eden, of Trinidad, Colorado,
says: Seeing certificates of tie wonderful
cures made by Brewer's Lung Restorer, j was
induced to try !t on my little son, who was
troubled with luug or throat affection, pro
nounced b'’ one physician consumption. It
acted wonderfully on him. and by the time
he had taken one bottle oi It the cough dis
appeared. I am now on a vis t to my parents
in Georgia, but will return In a few days to
my home aDd will certainly take some ol the
Lung Restorer with me.
