iliE numerous bank failures mean
nat the officers are thieves. The re¬
cent failure of a bank in Anniston is
fhe latest example of this species of
highway robbery.

The Legislature has refused to
accept the Confederate home and
thus the state of Georgia declines to
support its aged and disabled war
veterans. Great indignation over this
comes from all parts of the state
which may cause our legislators to
reconsider their action.

The Piedmont Exposition adverti¬
ses a big show. Among the attrac¬
tions will be a spectacular exhibition
of King Solomon or the Destruction
of Jerusalem, in which more than one
thousand people take part, and two
hundred and fifty ladies kick up their
heels as high as their heads in ballet
dances; this will be fun for the boys.
* * *
The prompt arrest of the Georgia
express robbers will doubtless be a
check on others who may be tempted
by the ease with which trains may be
boarded and robberies effected.Read¬
ing the lives of the James boys,Rube
Burrows and too much bad whistcey,
were the exciting causes to this
crime.
TRADE EDITION.
No one without experience can
realize the amount of labor it required
to gather up and put in shape for
publication the information
contained “in the trade issue
of the News. The majority of our
business men aided all they could in
the work; some seemed to think it
was a sort of favor conferred on the
Editor of the News, or failed to real¬
ize the value of time to him and said:
“call again,” or put him off to a more
convenient soason, and one merchant
sent word ho hadn’t time to “fool
with it.”
Yet there is involved in this busi¬
ness the highest interests and pros¬
perity of the town, including the
prosperity of our friend who “hadn’t
time to fool with it.”
We were sorry not to include an ac¬
count of all our business men, but a
few took no higher view of the report
than the matter of advertising their
personal business, and they did not
believe it paid to advertise;yet th“se
very men admitted they had never
tried advertising, and it is evident
they are doing a small business,while
the men who believe in advertising,
and are our largest advertisers, are
the most prosperous and successful
businessmen in the city; these two
stern facts are worthy the serious
consideration of the men who “never
have tried, and do not believe in ad¬
vertising.”
These trade editions of the News
have two advantages,—special to in¬
dividuals, and general to the whole
city; thus each business man derives
double advantages; the prosperity of
the town is the prosperity of all its
citizens.
The News has been constant and
persistent in promoting the progress
of Toccoa, encouraging its up¬
building and advancing its ma¬
terial interests. It is noticeable that
from the date of the first trade issue
two ypars ago, new life has been in¬
fused, and the town, since then, has
been progressing, slowly it may be,
but surely on the high road to pros¬
perity. New enterprises have been
established by home citizens, and
capitalists from abroad are knocking
at our doers.
The report of this last trade issue
should be an incentive to renewed
action by every citizen. Think
the 20 millions t of tons of freight
handled at this station; is there not
among this freight, material for pro¬
ducts than can be manufactured in
Toccoa?
Over 40,000 bales of cotton were
brought here and handled at our feet;
why cannot this be made into yarn and
cleth in our city, giving employment
to a thousand operatives? Why can-
not a portion of the three thousand
tons of fertilizers sold here be manu¬
factured in this town?
These aud numerous other quee—
tions suggested by this report, have
but the one answer, viz. that by the
united energies, and persistent, deter¬
mined efforts of al 1 our citizens,Toccoa,
in a short time can greatly multiply
her industries, add millions to her
capital, ulation and rapidly increase her pop¬
and wealth many fold.
PULASKI, s c.
In reply to the “Girl’s Song” of
Eastanollee in tb« News of Aug. 1st
would say as to the crops, they are
as fine as could l>e wished. The
trouble this fall will be some place
to store them; but if the sub-treasury
comes we will be as happy as people
can be. Now Gal, you say that we
have failed to learn the right tune;
you say the tune is
More corn, more wheat, more meat ami
better men. *
Now in regard to your tune we are
glad that we h»v6 failed to learn it.
VVe have never had to sing to West¬
ern smoke houses and corn cribs for
our corn, wheat and meat; we hope
we will never learn the tune,
VVe once learned a good old tune
which we often sing:
Plenty of com plenty of wheat, plenty of
meat,
sung with the good old tune:
Its all raised at home.
In regard to better men, we would
like to be temporarily better, but we
have seen men that could be bloned
about with every wind of doctrine
until they would get better and bet¬
ter and better, until they think that
they are so much better that God
won’t have them, and they might get
60 much better that the devil would
not have them; if such were the
case it would be
Good bye, old party, good bye,
sure enough.
1 have nothing to say of Georgia
and her good people;but you wanted
to know if I ever was in Georgia.
Now Gal, you bet 1 was present at
Toccoa on the 5th of August and
heard that Savior, Livingston, sing
the time:
More corn, more wheat, more meat and
better men.
with the chorus in his sleeve:
I ann glad all fools, are free.
You say if a gentleman or lady
makes a good songster these days,
they must keep up with the best ma-
terial of the day. In regard tokeep-
ing up with the singers of the day, 1
dont want to keep up, for I see
enough before me to make me go
slow. I think a man might sing and
sing these days to keep up with the
order of the day, and gat better and
better until he would sing clear out
of his *hirtand beyond his abilities
and his credit, and if such was the
case he would not have anything to
do but to sit down anl look back on
good old times and sing your chorus:
Good bye, old party, good bye.
In regard to Brother Nod, he has
returned from hunting the third party,
and on his return he told me that he
went through the whole shebang',and
at the other end he stepped cut On
the Ocala platform and it was so rot¬
ten that he broke through the first
step. So he is convinced and says
he wont sing your song with me. I
hope when we have to 'quit these
days of pain, toil and griefs, that we
will sing together on the golden
streets -

THE HOLtTrAIMENT.
Berlin, August 20.—The garment
known as the holy coat was exposed
to view this morning in the cathedral
at Treves. Two Knights of Malta,in
full costume, with drawn swords in
their hands, stood on either side of
the shrine inclosing the holy coat
case, which was surrounded by tall
lighted candles on handsome candle¬
sticks.
The scene in the cathedral was a
motley one, English tourists, in light
tweed suits, and Prussian officers, in
uniform, stubbornly refusing to kneel
before relic, and burgeoise citizens,in
evening dress, were prominent in the
crowd.
J he service, with monotonous Gre¬
gorian chants and administration of
the Eucharist to representative eccle¬
siastics, seemed of tha character of a
mediaeval ceremony. Many persons
were overpowered by their feelings,
and several women fainted.
THE PROCESSION OF PILGRIMS.
The procession of pilgrims pat-t th e
shrine, most of whom handed a rosa-
ry or crucifix to the attendant priests
for contact with the relic, was accom
panied by the low hum of pater lias-
tors and aves.
Among the pilgrims are aged crip¬
ples and sufferers from almost every
complaint.
There were some scenes of disorder
owing to somewhat violent attempts
made to gain early access to the ca¬
thedral.
At 10 o’clock tonight the pilgrim
were still filing in to behold the relic,
and an eager throng was besieging
the doors of the cathedral.
The police had some trouble to
preserve order. The whole town is
in a commotion. Pickpockets ate
rampant, and several have been ar¬
rested.—Atlanta Constitution.
MARTIN.
Paul Crawford, son of VVm. Craw¬
ford, who resides near this city died
Tuesday night; the heartfelt sympa¬
thies of this community go out to
the family in this the hour of their
sad bereavement.
There is a protracted meeting 'go¬
ing on at the Baptist church at this
place, conducted by the pastor, Rev.
P. F. Crawford, of Lavonia.

Grove, accompanied by Misses Fan¬
nie and Susie West of Atlanta, vis¬
ited their uncle, J. T. Cason, of this
place this week; they have also been
visiting relatives and friends in
Clarksville.
Oscar IFest of Atlanta is spending
a few weeks with J. T. Cason and
family of this place.
O. R. Randall left a few weeks
ago for Hiawassee where he is going
to school.
I. W. Randall visited his son at
Hiawassee last week.
B.H.Cason recently visited friends
in Clarksville,
Arthur Dean visited South Caroli¬
na last week.
S. O. Childs will leave for the
Young Harris Institute in a few days.
The writer accompanied by W.
R. Randall visited South Carolina a

CONSUMPTION CURED.
An old physician, retired from
practice, having had placed in his
hands by an East India missionary
the formula of a simple vegetable
remedy for the speedy and perma¬
nent cure of Consumption, Bronchitis,
Catarrh, Asthma and all throat and
Lung Affections, also a positive and
radical cure for Nervous Debility and
all Nervous Complaints, after hating
tested its wonderful curative powers
in thousands of cases, hffs felt it his
duty to make »t known to his suffer*,
ing fellows. Actuated by this mo
tive and a desire to relieve human
suffering, I will send free of charge,to
all who desire it, this recipe, in Ger
mean, French or English, with full
directions for preparing and using.
