At the recent semi-centennial
meeting of the High Tent of the In-
dependent Order of Rachabites of
North America, held in the city of
Washington,D. C., a union was form-
ed with the Salford Unity, England,
the mother Order of Rechabites, thus
connecting the Order throughout the
world, and giving it a membership of
175,000, and a financial backing of
over $3,000.000.—Savannah Local.
At the recent destructive fire in
Augusta, which burned the office of
tlm Augusta Chronicle, the force cf
that noble paper wonted to the last
moment to get off tlie issue then upon
<the press, while the fire raged in the
upper stories of the building. When
at last compelled by tne advancing
flames to escape from the doomed
building the entire issue ofThe Chron¬
icle had been printe I, and they left
the staunch old press, which had
worked up to the moment of its des¬
truction, to die in harness like a
warrior.
It is very gratifying to be able to
state that the Furniture Co. is over¬
run with orders. They have a force
of 00 to 70 men at work making 11
hours a day, and yet they are behind
on shipments. The grade and supe¬
rior finish of their goods is commend¬
ing it to the trade. Notwithstanding
there are several factories in Atlanta
the Toccoa Co, is shipping goods to
several large dealers in that city.
Their trade covers a large area of the
f’arolinas and Georgia, and the supe¬
rior quality of their goods and low
prices are fast distancing all compe¬
tition.
OUR TEACHERS.
The second year of the Toccoa pub-
lie schools will open for the ad.nis-
Sion of pupils next Monday , morning .
the 5th day of September. Prof. Al-
exander, who has had charge of the
schools for the past year, has been
secured as superintendent. His work
in our midst has proven his ability to
conduct the schools suc-cesstully.
4 his gentleman has shown executive .
ability in a marked degree. Ho is a
sraduete of the Alabama State Nor-
mul CoLlege, and also of the co miner-
cial college of Kentucky Uni versity.
His assistants in the school are
Misses Emma Davis and Mamie Turn-
bull. The funner graduated at the
Wesleyan college of Macon, Ga. She
had charge of the Primary Depart¬
ment during the last term and proved
her adaptability for this work. She
gave entire satisfaction to the super¬
intendent and patrons.
Miss Turnbull comes to the school
direct from tne Peabody Normal
lege, of Nashville, Tenn., for the
^ . . of
ra,n,n 2f teachers, bhe has recent-
finished the post-graduate
Sh. is a worthy and
UR b |e acquisition to the facultv.
We commend Prof. Alexander an J
his assistants to the people of our city
r r J
and , urge tbe , hearty .
upbuilding cooperation in
of the school system.
TO THE PATRONS.
To the Patrons or the Public
S< ijogls: The public schools fcr the
Pali term will open M inday, the 5th
day of September. The pupils will
be promoted on that day and
new
claves will be formed It is import-
ant that that there be a full attend-
anc 0t W e urge the patrons to enter
their children on that day and see
that they attend regularly. The
teachers earnestly desire the* hearty
support of the parents. Regular at-
tendance is an absolute necessity fur
the promotion of the pupils.
Hard study and regular attend uu-e
are the only roads to true progress ii
school work. See that your child
does not form habits of irregular at¬
tendance, and thereby lose a great
part of the good of the instructions
given in each day's work. Each dav
will be a period ir. school work; and 1
urge regular attendance as an abso-
lute necessity for the good of each
pupil . If you se e that your child
comes to school, * the teachers will
earnestly .
endeavor to teac.u that child
something each dav.
Respectfully,
.f. E. Alexander, Supt.
Toccoa, Sept. 1st. 1802.
OUR MAGAZINES.
The September issue of Lippin-
cott’s is a Pacific number. Every
article in it deals with topics of our
western coast, chiefly, of course, Cal¬
ifornian. The complete novel, “The
Doomswoman,” is by Mrs. Gertrude
Atherton. It is a vigorous tale of “the
grass era” of Spanish occupation, and
depicts with vivid brilliancy the man-
ners > amusements, passions, and in¬
trigues of those hidalgos and donnas
who ruied the land before its cession.
The novel is fully illustrated. Hu-
bert Howe Bancroft, the distmguish-
ed historian of the Pacific coast, fur-
nishes a most interesting account of
“California Eras.” Next in import-
ance is a sketch of the history of
“California Journalism,” by the vet-
eran editor, M. H. de Young. Helen
F. Lowe gives us a liberally illustra¬
ted account of “A Famous Pebble
Beach,” that of Pcscadero. William
S. Walsh discusses “Mrs. Ather¬
ton’s Novels” in the form of a dia¬
logue between a Whig and a Tory.
The department “As ft Seems” talks
about “A New Country,” “The Gos-
pel of Migration,” “Literature of the
Pacific,” and kindred topics. There
are short stories by Heine (Joaquin)
Miller, and Emma B. Kaufman.; and
poems by well known writers. J. B.
Lippincott & Co., Philadelphia.

DOINGS OF THE
AND PEOPLE’S PARTY.
TIIE SPEAKINGS TAKING PLACE
THE COUNTRY,
When a tiiird party saint smile
one feels an involuntary emotion to
guard himself against mischief.
* *
“When once a man is determined
to believe, the very absurdity of his
doctrine confirms him in his faith.”
There are a few modern day saints to
whom this may apply.
* *■
That pursy old quack ought to
write another letter. Its style is so
edifying and is adapted to third party
literature and so in keeping with their
tnst*, that one little sample makes
them hanker for,more.
* * *
The big third party five from each
Militia district in Franklin county
met at Carnesville Thursday and
nominated Dr. J. R. Holbrooks for
Representative. Neal Little will
make the doctor kneel a heap before
he gets to the legislature.
* v
Hon. Louis Davis, nominee forSen-
ator from this district is doing effec¬
tive work for the Democratic party.
There are certain Johns etc. who say
every speech he delivers makes third
party votes. Still these same Johns
don’t like to divide time with him.
* * *
Neal Little has been nominated by
the Democratic party of Franklin
county to represent them in the Gen¬
eral Assembly. Mr. Litileis one of
the brightest and most popular
young men in Franklin county, and
the third party horse, whoever he may
be, will have to stir lively to beat
him to the tank.
* *- *
The Grand Rally of the Democra¬
cy promises to be the event of the
season. Gov. Northern, Col.
stem, Mr. Tate and others will address
the people on that dav. The third
partyites are invited to come out and
see themselves as others see them,and
take part in the discussion if they so
desire; it will be a free and open
fight. But there will hardly be any
of the saints there. They cannot
stand sound Democratic talk,—-they
flee from the truth as the devil does
from holy water. Dear departed, er¬
ring brethren come and see ns and
stay awhile.

Quintillns Quintillium Quincy Ad¬
ams, one of Stonecypher’s Latin
scholars held forth at Carimn’sAcad-
emy last Saturday. lie astonished
the natives as much by his wonderful
flow of language as by his constant
retreat ever and anon to the rear of
the hbuse, where from a little bottle
lie drew forth copious draughts of in-
spiration. He succeeded in his un-
dertaking beyond his most sanguine
expectations. Every third party man
in the crowd was converted into a
rock-bottom, iron-ribbed, died-in-the
woe Democrat- Come agaio,Q:wncy.
* * *
W. A. Pledger, the negro orator,
in a recent speech made in Monroe
to his race on the political issues of
the day, said among other things:
“When l am compelled to choose
thus I want to select and vote
party, its highest aspirations
loftiest purposes. If you wanted a
subsciption to build a church or a
school house,if yon wanted somebody
to go on your bonu you would app y
tc some man like Gov. Northen
Col. Bob, Hardeman. You never
would think of going for help to a
third nartv 1 scrub.”
Col. Peek represents tne rough
and tough elements that have slouch-
ed off from the Democracy.
