THE SOUTHERN SUN. —— f ' LARGEST CIRCULATION IS CITT AKD COUBTY JOHN R. HAYES, R. M- JOHNSTON Editors. FEBRUARY 24th 1872. GRANT SWOPPING HORSES- A RECONCILIATION WITH FORNEY AND A BREAK WITHCAMEROA* Washington, Febrarary 18.—Colonel Forney, Collector of the Port of FhiladeL pbia, arrived to-day, and was visited by the leading officers of (the [administ ration, who bad apprehensions for some time past that be was about to abandon the for tones of General Grant and join himself to the independent Republicans. Asa result of ail the interviews on the part of these genj> tlemen with Forney, they report him sftll sound in the faith. This evening Forney dined with the President, and it is under stood pledged himself anew to stand by the administration- In order to conciliate Forney, and hold him to the support of Grant, the latter will allow the ex Colleo to name his successor, and hie appointments in the Philadelphia Custom-house will re main undisturbed. This new turn in affaiis is likely to make trouble betwen Grant and Cameron. He has been anxious to have one of bis henchmen appointed Collector and to have Forney driven over to the dis satisfied and disappointed men among she Republicans. It is stated that Grant begins to lose faith in the venerable Senator from Pennsylvania, and that he will hereafter swear entirely by Forney- Os course Cam eron will stir up trouble for Grant among his followers in Pennsylvania, and the feel ing begins to gain ground that in view of all the circumstances, the Keystone State is not as certain for Grant as it was a few months ago,—Cor, World- Editorial Change. —Capt. C. E. Alison has retired from llie editorial control of the Quincy Journal, Florida, and Maj. W. H. I. Anson takes his place.

Owing to a failure iu our paper •we are unable to issue but a half-sheet this week. The paper from this date passes into new bands and will be issued regularly hereafter. The now proprietor will issue the Bainbridge Sun in an en tire new dress in a short time, and otherwise make improvements which will lender it one of the best weeklies in the State, and in every way acceptable to the reading public. We hope this apology may suffice for our short comings this week, and in future we shall endeavor to do without excuses of any nature. Locals are extremely scarce this week. Boggy tiding is quite fashionable iu Bainbridge atpn eut. Mayor Jones had one or two sittings this week. Several parties were reprimanded and other were fined. The festival came off last night, but we have not time to give particulars this week, but will do so iu our next. . ! * ■' ■* ♦ 1 -I There was a serenading party out onc'night this week, and they made the streets, fence coiners, &c., howl. Personal. —We received a brief but pleasant visit this week from Dr. Love, Agent of t » Ivuta Constitution. The Shoo Fly Minstrels didn’t exhibit their sjoartness this week. We hope they will shortly, for there’s no telling, you know, where blind horses will stagger. The weailier continues miserable, changing al ternately from sunshine to rain, and from heat to cold. We have a communication lrom Mr. R. S. D. ( of Whighnm, but which we must decline to pub lish, except as an advertisement, aud then to be paid for cash in advance. . ■ ■ ——- Op* Aor.Nr.—Mr. T. B. Cloud, at the is our authorized agent in the city, and all con, tracts for subscription and advertising made with him, will be earned out by us. There is a young clerk in this town who shoes of such a size that he is going to p e a petition to our city fathers askiug pay for tiling auts. Enterprising youth, that. Mr. D. W. Broome, an old and well- known citi zen of Bainbridge, died on Wednc. !ay night of consumption. B. F. Powell, Es-q., well-known to our entire community, and throughout the State, having served for a good many terms in the Lower House of the Georgia Representatives, died yesterday evening at 5 o’clock. Onr Local lias lost liis pocket-book containing the tenth part of a dollar and a number of extracts clipped from exchanges. If the finder will return the extracts he may keep the book and theimoney, as we are not particular about expenses. Retort.— We devote the most of our outside this week, to the able report of President John Screven, of the Gulf Bond. Bead it ou the first page. Our Local received a valentine, and we give the following stanza as a very correct sample of what the whole was: One good square look was all we took— It told our mutual love, I gently inurmum- and .- “Dearest one." Says he : “My turtle dove !” Now ain’t that nice boy’s, Wouldn't you like come of thai. Who would’nt be an editor ? Zkba.—'This gentleman gave two very pleasing entertainments in this city on Wednesday and Thursday ejrcuings of this week. Considerable in terest not devoid of merriment too, was caused by the giving away of his prizes. This deponeut drew a fiveJdoHar note, and consequently is happy Two negro women, living on the Quincy road-, near the four mile creek, got into a dis pute the other day in which pocket knives, were wade the force of argument. One of them was very seriously cut. XsiQHrs of Phtthub.—We are requested to an nounce that a meeting will be held next week for the purpose of organising a lodge of the above named order. There have been several attempts TpaiT* to organize a lodge in this city, bat, through ineffectual efforts to obtain a charter, they have all failed. The charter has been granted-by Prof. Ryan, Grand Master, and the order will now un doubtedly find an existence in Bainbridge. Death’s Doings. —Mr* J. C. Blount, of Whig ham, died on 1 burday. Mr. Henry Daniels a welb known citizen of Bainbridge, died on the same dav. Dsad.—Old Bob, known in this city as “Don’t you pee,” died the other day from taking in too large a cargo of spoiled cove oyster*. The following valentine was sent to ns with the request that we publish it as an auswer to the one in our last isaj^^^We do the hope th at these two be brought together, and forever so rOT»*w***S3D. Sun. An answer to a valentine. TO WILLIAM. I could love most any laddie If he proves himself a man, If he can but name bis daddy. And he’s not a sorry sham, Squinting, blinking, Loafing, drinkiog, I despise in any man. I will love, it is my failing, Women loves th3 good, the gay, But your sex are ever ailing And forever want their way, So astounding. So confounding, Or the devil is to pay. I can love the handsome fellow. Comely, gallant, graceful, true, In Lis ways, mature and mellow, Knowing, what to say and do, Fondly viewing, Always cooing, Minds his business, never blue, I do love I own it sadly Once I pledged a faithful heart, If my Will'amjdld act badly I'd forgive, we could not part, Gambling, smoking, Vulgar joking, Dare you call manly art, I was loved un+o di traction, By a num skull, fool was he, And he had the satisfaction To get floored, a sprawling free, He went gliding, Gently sliding, In his ear a hornet bee. I could love yon till I’m dying, If you’l change your style and rig, Quit your toddies, sickly sighing, And ignore that hateful wig, Quit your croaking, Lager soaking, Ugly Street and clownish jig.
