Surles & Cos., of the Em pire Nursery of Georgetown, pre sent their card to day. This nur sery is fast growing in public favor, and thousands of trees arc here sold annually and transplanted into or chards that bear fruit superior to any in the land. The proprietors never offer a variety of fruit until they have thoroughly tested its adaptability to our soil and climate, hence no risk is made in buying. Fruit culture is beginning to receive that attention it merits in our sec tion, and we are confident it will in crease in importance,year by year, until the shipment of Northern ap pies into our market will Cease. — We can beat any section in the world on fruit, if we would only use the advantages in our possession. —The Cuthbert Literary Society will have a public debate on Thurs day evening next, the 16th iftst., at Powell’s Hall.

Underhill, New son & Cos., proprietors of the Com mercial Nurseries, of Nashville, Tenn., that the fruit trees, vines, etc., purchased from them by our citizens, will reach Cuthbert on De cember Ist, and ready for delivery on that day, and that the trees, etc , are well grown and very fine, and of superior fruits. The agents, Messrs. Dr. W. 11. Harris, Geo 11. Young and A. S. Brevard, will be here on that day to meet their cus tomers, and we hope every pef-con, who made bills with these gentle men, will come forward promptly and receive their trees, and plant them while fresh. The fruits from these reliable nurseries are well adapted to our soil and climate, and certainly our citisens should be •prompt to meet their obligations with our Tennessee friends. ‘'Sold/’’ did you say i “I thought that was just the way it was fixed tip.” {So said.)

Sciialuria! toisvrHlion, The Senatorial Convention, for the lltli District, assembled in Cuthbert on Wednesday, the t tli of November, and was organized by calling Dr. C. R. Moore, of Terrell, to the Chair, and requesting Robt. Thompson, of Clay, to act ns Secre tary. The following were appointed a committee on credentials, viz.: Jno. L. Brown, Jno. Kaigler, I. J. Saun ders, Jno. 11. Jenkins, Wm. Ivaig lev and J. W. Horseley. The com mittee retired and reported nil the delegates present entitled to seats, and recommended that Knigh ton be admitted ns an alternate from the 4th District of Randolph. On motion of Mr. J. 11. Guorry, it was resolved that eacli county be entitled to 23 votes in balloting. On motion the two-thirds rule was adapted—the convention re serving the right to repeal the same and nominate by a majority if deem ed expedient during the balloting. The convention further resolved that as 'Randolph county was enti tled, by rotation, to name the caridi dates, that the delegates from said county bo requesled to suggest names, to ballot for, and that after the first ballot, the name of the low est. candidate be dropped. Under this resolution, the follow ing names were suggested, viz: Jno. T. Clarke, C. W. Jones, R. F. Crittenden, D. L. Ferguson and M. C. Edwards, and the convention pro- Ceeded to ballot. Judge Jno. T. Clarke, receiving the highest vote in the first four baliotings, was, pend ing a fifth ballot, declared unani mously nominated by acclamation. A committee of one from each county was appointed to inform Judge Clarke of his nomination, who immediately came before the convention and accepted the nomi nation in a brief but eloquent ad dress, replete with good sense and patriotism. Mr. J, H. Guerry offered the fol lowing, which was unanimously adopted : llesoloed, That we hereby pledge onr united efforts, to secure the elec tion of the lion. Jno. T. Clarke, the nominee of tiie convention. The secretary was requested to furnish each paper in the Distiict with the proceedings of the con vention for publication. Robt. Thompson, Secy. Georgia Statistics, We make the following extracts from the Atlanta Constitution, which wifi be of interest to the gen eral reader, touching the statistics of the State : The area of Georgia is 58,000 square miles. The population is exceedingly sparse, being only 22 to the square mile. The population of Georgia is 1,- 250,000. Of these, CO per cent, are' whites, and 40 per cent negroes.— The population is mostly native, on ly about 12,000 being foreign born. The women are in excess of the men by about 2] per cent. Of this pop elation, six per cent, are engaged in manufacturing, four per cent, in trade and commerce, fifteen per cent, in professional or personal ser vice, and seventy five per cent, in agriculture. The average of per sons to the family is five, and there, is a dwelling lor every five persons. The agricultural population of; Georgia is 900,000 souls, and the number of acres in cultivation is a trifle over 600,000. In iB6O Georgia was a very rich State. It was the sixth in the American union in point of wealth It averaged $l,lOO to each white in habitant, the total being $645,000,- 000. At the close of the war her total wealth was $191,000,000. In 1870, three years afterwards, this had increased to $265,G00,000. The debt ol Georgia is lower than that of any Southern State, popula tion and extent considered. The State owns property that would pay her debt if it were sold. The tax is the lowest of any Southern State, if not of any State m the union, be> ing only 5 mills. In 1875 there were 169,916 chil dren at school. Of these, 114,000 were white and 2,u00 colored- The Baptist church in Georgia has members, nearly one to every six persons in the State.— Of these, 81,000 are negroes.— There are 114 associations. The Methodist church, South, have 95,000, of which 13,000 are negroes belonging to the colored Methodist church, an independent organization. The church has over 1,000 preachers. The Presbyterians have in Geor gia 149 churches, 55,000 sittings, 9,400 members and property worth $653,400. The Episcopal clmrch has 29 churches, 11,000 sittings, 4,500 communicants and 39 clergymen. The Catholic church has over 30,- 000 members, 25 churches, 35 chap els, 24 priests. There are in Georgia 2,620 Isra elites. FORT GAINES DEPARTMENT E. A. KEESE, : : : Editor. A New Item—the Bridge. —At a meeting of the Council Monday night the Fort Gaines Bridge was sold to Mr. D. C. Adams for $4,000. We are sorry to learn that the sale has caused some dissatisfaction, many of the citizens believing the amount paid entirely too small.— We do not presume to argue the point, but considering the fact that a short time since the people were willing to give 84,000, and what re mained of the old bridge to any one who would rebuild it, we are com pelled to say that the City Council has done well in securing a first-class bridge without expense to the city. There is an old maxim about “ let ting well enough alone.” Terrible but True. —For some months past, a smooth faced, red haired young man, could be seen often in our town, his business asd home we have been requested to keep secret. His attire always neat, a low, musical voice, and oh, such winning ways. Often at our “ So cial Gatherings” he might be seen reverently bending over the ear of some fair damsel, wbispeiing (with an indescribable earnestness, pecul iar alone to those who have long practiced) the soft nothings about the weather and other interesting topics. Last Tuesday evening we saw him again at a party, and we envied that man, but was forced to content ourself with sitting oppo site, and noting the peculiar sweet ness of the smiles lavished upon lam by a certain fair one. Visions of cards, cake and white gloves-floated o’er us, from which we were rudely awakened by hearing a friend of his address him in this manner : “Mr.—, how did you leave your ivife?” Oh, the scene that followed ! xNo tears were shed, our grief was too deep. But when seme one rudely observed that Miss was goiog to faint, our heart bled, for we wore wise enough to know that it was not the shock which brought on this sudden faintness, but the result of a three hours' promenade to which this terrible man had subjected her. By spe cial request we draw the curtain, and say, “To be continued, not in our next, but whenever this ‘ mail ’ comes again.” IBuino Your Cotxon to Fort Gaines. —With the Bridge com' pleled and a daily train, our mei-' chants are so elated that they pay • Columbus prices, and why should they not, with a rich c mntry to back them and splendid railroad utid river facilities fur shipping ?

Cole man is having a cellar dug back of his store and wifi make an addition, running back several feet, which will enable him to add largely to his stock. He is daily expecting a large stock of confectioneries. His bar is still filled with the choicest liquors. Give him a call. —Mr. J. T. Walker has a fine lot of horses and mules at his stables for sale. Call and see them. The valuation of property in North Carolina has increased near $30,000,000 since 1870, and that, too, in spite of the long panic and low prices.

DOZIER, : : : : Editor The Bethel Association met with the Enon Church 8 miles east of Georgetown last Friday, the 2d inst. Rev. TANARUS, Muse was chosen Moderator and Dr. B. C. Mitchell, Secretary. A large attendance was present during the three days. On Sunday, at 11 o’clock, Rev. Mr. Chadoin preached the Missionary Sermon. llis text was the 13th verse of the last chapter of Isaiah. The crowd on Sunday was the lar gest that ever gathered at Enon.— The Association was a gratifying success in the whole and each part. —Pursuaut to a call of the Chair man of the Democratic Executive Committee of. this county, the citi zens met iu the Court House last Tuesday, Mr. W. L. Crawford, was chosen Chairman, and Mr. T. L. Guerry Jr., requested to act as Sec retary.

Key. —Last Saturday the Sheriff ol this county went to Eufaula on bus iness, and while walking down the street he came across a negro by the name of Calvin Chipmin, a no torious thief, whom he had a requi si Lion for. Failing to see an officer, and thinking the negro would es cape, he concluded to arrest him and then turn him over to an officer, ar.d in return let the officer give the negro back to him. He arrested the negro and was going down Broadway looking for an officer, and as he was passing in front of Stow’s store the negro gave him the dodge and ran through the store. The sheriff took after him. The negro leaped out of the store and made up an alley. The sheriff seeing that he was in a fair way of losing him raised his pistol and fired. The ball entered Die back of the head.— The negro lived until that evening ami died. #*CIS. B'oS'l’CSi* Of this distinguished ex Confeder ate cavalier, who died at his bro' ther’s residence, near Memphis, on the 29th nit., the Baltimore Sun says': Nathan Bedford Forrest was born in Bedford county, Tennessee, July 12,1821. In 1834 bis father re moved to Mississippi and died in 1837, leaving a large family de pendent upon the subject of this sketch. With this responsibility he devoted himself to farming, and by good management lie had by 1846 secured comparative prosperity for the family, uow reduced by death. In 1842 he entered business at Her nando, Mississippi, where he re mained till 1851, when he removed to Memphis, Tennessee, and became a real estate broker and dealer in slaves. Having amassed a fortune, in 1859 he purchased a valuable t.-s tate in Coahoma county, Mississippi, and engaged extensively in cotton planting. Though opposed to se' cession, when war become inevita ble he espoused the Southern cause with his usual energy. In June, 1861, he joined the Tennessee Mounted Rifles as a private, but in July, at the request of Govenor Harris, raised a regiment of cavalry, equipping them largely from his own private means. On the organ ization of the regiment, in October, he was chosen Lieutenant-Colonel and the day following moved his men to Fort Donaldson, their first engagement being with a Federal gunboat at Canton Landing. At Fort Donaldson Forrest bore a con spicuous part, and ou the final de termination of the commander to surrender he remonstrated and es caped with his regiment. On March 10, 1862, his regiment reached Huntsville, Alabama, and be was chosen Colonel. He fought at Shiloh and Murfreesboro’, greatly distinguishing himself, and was ap pointed Brigadier General in July, 1862. He was transferred to North Mississippi November, and was assigned to the command of cavalry, where he deveif4B|l the element of a bold, skiilfuMßjtucr getic cavalry coimmflH In April, 1864, he was in of the forces at the Pillow, and was be Lieutenant Gcuerai I' Bos. After the surrender General Forest again took up his residence in Memphis, where lie become a leader in building up the wasted fortunes of that section. lie was also con spicuous in cultivating a spirit of fraternity between the people of the lately estranged sections. He was a warm friend of the colored race, over whom he exercised remarka ble influence. General Forest has been for years a victim of chronic diarrhwvi, from which he has at times been a great sufferer, and which was the prime cause of his death. Stand from Under!
