The Evening News says the proposition to change the name ol the Augusta District High School to the "George F. Pierce High School," is meeting with much fa vor. Each county in Georgia needs a board of tax assessors, ami tin Legislator who refuses to vote foi a law creating such hoards should never be trusted with any public duty.—Albany Medium. The Lumpkin Independent says that it has information that the Central now controls the ehartei of the B.jC\ A C. Railroad. Not much, it don't. We arc author ized t-ysiiy that, there is not a word of truth in the report. So absolutely sure is the New York Herald of Cleveland's tri umph that, it does not hesitate to predict that Bayard will he tSeerc ! Next Wednesday the Tiar. The election for Governor, State House officer^ and memliers of tin Legislature takes place next Weil nesdav, the first of Oeto’.icr. In Gov. McDaniel, we have a pru dent. safe and able man, who will he re elected without op|>osilion. The gentlemen who romjiose the ticket for State House officers, are well known and honored citizens, and none of them will he opposed. In Col. Hoyl, of Terrell, the can didate for the Senate, we have a nn.n of integrity and ability, who will serve with honor to himself, ind will rcflict credit on his con stituency. There is now no oh staclc in the way of his election, except, possibly, that the white people of his district may not take enough interest in the matter to vote. True, he is opposed l»y a negro, hut the white voters have only to do their duty, and Col. Hoyl will be elected by a vole of two to one. The it terest to our people cen tres mainly in the question as to who shall lie elected ns a incmlier of the House of Representatives from this county. A man of intel hgenee and influence can he of great service to the county just now. (Questions of great impor tance to county and State, will come before the Legislature at this session for settlement. We owe it to ourselves and to our fellow citizens over Georgia to make the best contribution we can to aid in the disposal of these important issues. There are liefore us three candidates claiming out votes, and between these we must decide. Col. T. J. Perry is the regular nominee of the conven tion. The delegates, elevating him to this position, were sent here by tlie people themselves, in their f rimary meetings, where all had a chance to vote who wanted to rotv. The meeting of the del egates resulted in the noininatiot of Col. Perry. It came to him tin solicited, and unexpected. Hi lid absolutely nothing to securi it. There was no wire pulling no trickery, no bribery, no any thing about it. The Conventioi nominated him, and he accepted, ihe nomination, expecting tin white men of the county to sup port him to their fullest ability Col. Perry is a man of intelligence, of integrity and high sense ol lion or, and if elected, he will serve u- faithfully. Opposed to him an Mr. Jas. II. Dennington, a whit, man, and Jim Givens, a negro.— Mr. Dennington's aspirations were well known before the Con vention, hut it was not thought that he was the proper man to put before the people. Mr. Di-nning ton is a good, steady citizen, and under other circumstances wt would love to tee him supported But every con -iderntion of justice, and especially of safety to the white people of the county forbids our voting (or him, while there is a negro in the field. Mr. Denning ton comes unsolicited before the people. lie represents no issue but what is represented by Col. Perry, and certainly neither lie, nor his friends can claim that he is better qualified to represent the intelligence of this county than Col. Perry. The lull negro vote will be polled this year, and while many of their voles will lie thrown out as illegal, yet the colored [ico pie arc going to do their best for riiKiic own cot.oit, and their own nominee this year. It needs no argument then, to show white men that they can vote- hut one :my. A division or the WHITE VOTE RESULTS IX THE ELEC TION or A xEuuo.

Realizing the demand so often heretofore made, for economy, honesty anil capacity, in State of ficers, and believing that you will represent our District, not only with ability, hut with fidelity, and that our people will snost heartily and cordially ratify your nomina lion, we ask that you accept the nomination tendered you by the convention. Very respectfully, W. O. Butler, Clay County. O. B. Stevens? Terrell County. Dawson, Ga., Sept. lGth, ’84. Messrs. IF. O. Butler auil O. B. Stevens: Gentlemen—I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt, this evening, of your communication of this dale, informing me that the Senatorial Convention for the 11th Senatorial District, which met at Cuthhert on the 10th in it., nomi nated me by acclamation, as the Democratic nominee, to represent the District in the next GeueVal Assembly of the State, auil re questing that I accept the nomi nation tendered. Allow me, gentlemen, to assure you that I appreciate very highly, the complimentary allusion to my self contained in your communi cation, as well as the high compli ment paid me hy a Convention of my fellow-citizen*, in thus tender ing me the nomination for an hon orable office without solicitation upon iny part. I would lie left no nltcrnativc hut to accept, under ordinary eir- _-uinstances, but rc|>orls reach me to-day. from a highly res|ieetahh- source, to the effect, that some mistake was probably made in ap portioning the vote of the Clay del egation in your Convention. May 1 not then respectfully suggest, that it might be more satisfactory to investigate and advise further? 1 am, sirs, with high respect, Your obedient Servant, L. C. Hoti.. Fort Gaines, Ga., Sept, lfl,'84. Col. L. C. Hoyl, Date-on, Ga: Dear Sib—In reply to your fa vor of this date, addressed to W O. Butler aud O. B. Stevens, in reference to a rumor to the effect, .hat there was a mistake made ii. -asting the vote of Clay coitnty ve beg leave to state the following facts, to-wit: There being six del •gates to east the vote of tin -ounty, four Irom Cotton Hill Di» trict. and twp from Fort Gainc.- District. The Bluffton Dislrici being unrepresented,- and tin county being entitled to thirteen votes, it was agreed hy tliecaucue hat each District was entitled to 14 votes, there lieing three Dis tricts in the county, which lefl the entire vote to lie east liy the Fort Gaines and Cotton Hill Dis trict. It was then agreed that tin Bluffton District, should be equal ly divided hy the Fort Gaines and Cotton Hill; which made 64 votes to he cast by each District.‘Then- being four delegates from the Col ton Hill District, ami two Irom the Fort Gaines District, upon a division of the 64 votes, the four delegates from Colton Hill were entitled to ljj? votes each, and the two delegates Irom Fort Gaines to •I j votes each. This was the vote cast from Clay, and there can be no mistake. The above facts, as stated, are true, and it was clearly under stood hy each and every member of the caucus, that this was the way the vote stood. Yours, Very Respectfully. W. O. Butler, L. L. Sutlive, J. F. Kimble. F. C. Stanford, Tuos. Crozieil Dawson, Ga., Sept. 22, 84. Cut. L, C.

It may therefore lie announced that I accept the honor conferred,- requesting that you understand, that I will cheerfully acquiesce with any future action circiim stances may indicate the proprie tv of the party, to which we lie- long, taking in the premises. You will allow me gentlemen, to add. that should 1 again hare the hon or of representing the lltli Sena torial District in the next Genera!

The Fort Gaines Tribune says: • The tur|iejuiiiic farm on wjt-itig known as the “old Stamjier place.” on the Blakely road, was burned last Monday. We passed through till- tarni whilc it was on fire, the flames heing on both sides of the road. It was a weird scene indeed to see the flames reaching a lion- fall of a negro. The other opponent of Col. Per ry is Jim Givens, a Negro. We spell it with a capital because that is right, and we want the white men of Randolph county to see how it looks, and to think how they will feel if he goes to the Legislature, as the result of a ill vision of the white vote, or a Jfail lire on their part to vote at all. Fellow citizens, the subject is before you. Do your full duty, and remember that Wednesday, the first day of October is the time.

Mr. D. M. Davidson's new store will soon he completed. Messrs. Cnimhlcy A Hill an receiving their stock of drugs laily. Georgetown needs a hardware and house-furnishing store, and a first class dry goods store. We frequently hear farmers say that if they could find what they want ed in Georgetown they would not trade anywhere, ami that they preferred to leave their money w ith home merchants in their own state, and build up home indus tries. Can't the merchants sup ply the demand? There is considerable sickness out in the country, hut the health of the fieople of Georgetown is comparatively good. Mr. Alex Lewis is building a livery stable, ami he will make it a success no doubt. We need more men that are not afraid to venture. The cotton crop will lie short, hut little more is being made here, than was made last year. Miss Vilula Willis is visiting Mr. M. L. Albritton's family this week.

Besides a sup|ier, con sisting of eatables of various kinds, and in abundance, quite a nice quilt, made for the occasion, was put' np 'lo be voted for and presented to the young lady re ceiving the largest number ol votes. The voting continued for more than two hours with con siderable enthusiasm; and many wercdissapfioinled when the rote was announced, to find the result so different to what they antiei pated. Only two young ladies received over one hundred votes —Miss Florence Ellis receiving 145, and Miss Mary Lou Lee 132. The proceeds of the night amount ed to more than fifty dollars. Both the churches here are soon to undergo changes and re pairs. The Baptist ch.irch will lie changed sn as to make it more roomy, ami give it also a better ap|>earance, and the Methodist is to be repaired. ' Miss Cora Bell of Morgan spent a few days of last week visiting the family of Mr. Toni Curani. Mr. John Caiilhen. who has been assisting Mr. Bloodsworth in looking after his farms in this section, left last week for his home in Barnesville. Miss Jennie Houck of Cuthliert was in the Yale Friday and Sat urday of last week, the guest ol Mrs Butler. Miss Cora Smith, who has iiecn visiting Miss Eula Crapps for some time, left Tuesday tor her home in Montezuma. Miss Cora made many warm friends while here who regret to sec her leave. There is more sickness in this section at present than Ins lieen at any time before during the ycaK It is confined principally to fever and sore eyes, however, and no serious cases. The short cotton crop and the low price of the staple is having rather a damaging effect on the feelings of some of the farmers, ind causing them to wear long laces. The Spring Vale fieople were in high hopes of a depot at the Lyh Crossing for a while, hut we learn they are to be disappointed. They will be accommodated to a side ling, however, which they claim will be some advantage. Tlie fiolitical candidates an astir in tbe land, and things are beginning to grow lively.

Perry, of Cuthliert,; was unanimously nominated, last week, as a candidate for Repre sentative, by the Democracy of Randolph county. The nomina tion was entirely unsongbt by Col. Perry, and was a fitting tri bute to a good man. He was once a Senator from this, the 9th district, and made a good record in the Senate—doing his whole duty. We extend congratula tions to the Randolph Democrats, and hope that their worthy can didate will lend them to easy vic tory. " The Clarksvil|p Advertiser says: “The time is near at hand when it will be such a disgrace to lie seen under tlie influence of, or deal in the traffic of intoxicating drinks, that men who hare any rcganl for themselves or their families will be ashamed to in dulge in it. The evidence of this is plain and undeniable. It is indeed encouraging to hear from the counties that are voting on the liquor question—they give from 300 to 1.000 majority in fa vor of prohibition.
