Next Tuesday night the Jeffersonian Litor-
ary Club will assemble at their hall and carry
out another ono of their interesting pro
grammes consisting ot declamation, reading,
and recitation.
The public are cordiallp invited, and we
hope to see a large audience greet the Jcffcr

The Slock Show.
Next Tuesday is the time for the stock show
and races. Zt will be a most enjoyable occa
sion if the people turn out and patronise it
as they ought. Will they do it? Wc shall
see. The races wo learn will he fine. Come
out everybody aud help along the joyful time.
It. Hi. Levy.
Levy is the biggest clothing merchant ia
Savannah— that is to say l;e keeps the largest
stock on hand to bo found in that city. Aud
he sells them cheaper than any other dealer,
at wholesale or retail. Mr. E. Amram, bo
well known in our community is with Mr.
L.-vy and our folks will certainly be treated
right. See advertisement, a”d buy of Levy.
Biddle.
Biddies are of various kinds, the most
prominent of which just now lives in Colum
bus. Ga., in the person of ono A. 1. Biddle,
the boss photographer oi the South. Now in
order to solve this Biddle, when you go to
Columbus—and we will all go when the
“Chattahoochee” comes steaming around—
call at his gallery and see it what we tell you
is not the truth.
The Last of the Acw J ok.
The steamer Newton sank at Lucky Island
yesterday to rise no more. Her position bo-
twoen two rocks at that point was chronicled
in our issue ot yesterday, and the news of the
gallant Newton’s demise was not entirely un
expected. Thus perished the work, hopes,
and we may say laudable ambition, of one of
the most untiring, energetic aud invincible
men that ever loomed up from Albany—Billie
Sutton. His many friends in this city sym
pathize with him in bis misfortune.—Albany
Adrertiser.
The Missionary Exhibition.
Let all of onr people remember that the
children’s Missionary Society will hold their
exhibition at- the M. E. Church to-morrow
(Friday) night. It will bo a most enjoyable
affair. We learn that the little folks are well
prepared with their speeches, recitations and
songs.
Mr. Henry J. Bruton, a most popular young
orator will deliver the leading address of the
occasion—and we hear that he is prepared to
do his high reputation foil justice.
Do let all of the people turn out and en-
conrage the children by their presence. No
admission fee will he required.
HYMENIAL.
Married at the residence of Mrs. Scott, on
Tuesdav evening, November 15th, by Bev. F.
Pasco, Capt. J. Palmer to Miss Julia Hahn.
I Ye oxtend our congratulations to the happy
couple, and wish them a long life of happi
ness and prosperity.—Monticelio (Fla.) Con
stitution.
The fair bride has many friends in this city
who would extend their hearty congratula
tions. The gallant Captain has won a prizo in
Miss Jnha.
BEAUTIFUL.
“Too pretty to live,” they say of fine ba
bies, and “too sweet for anything.” But
what can we say of the pagi of exquisite po
etry, which frames in the lovely Mandolin
player? What of the four pages of just such
miscellany as all people like ? What of the
condensed Editorial and Brevity pages?
What of the hymn in prose, “Songs in ihe
Night? What of the history of the Yorktown
events of the 19th of October, 1781, compress-
ep into a column ? And then the fine music,
“The Old House f ar Away,” the “Pleasaut
Memories Waltz,” and “Little Bunch of Roses
Xuiokstep,” There is one word for it, “Beau
tiful!’ aud three words to express it all—

A Faithful Railroad Employee.
Thirteen years ago Wilder Smith entered
the employ of the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad.
He was then thirteen years younger than he
is now—but little more than a hoy. The po*
sition to which he was assigned was not a
high one, but nevertheless lie has li’led it
faithfully ever since. The place he holds is
that of watchman at the railroad river ware
house and steamboat wharf. It is neverthe
less an arduous position, involving as it has
done the loss of thirteen years natural sleep.
Think ot it—not one night’s rest in all those
years.
We have said that Mr. Smith has been faith
ful to his trust, but his modesty and diffidence
has never allowed him to receive the proper
credit with the company for his long servico
to it, and he has continued to work at the
'same small salary he liist started with. And
yet he is no dolt. He is ono of the most iu-
geuous men in mechanics we ever saw. In
his leisure moments he has built from stem
to stern admirable models of full-rigged ships,
Some of which are used as parlor ornaments
by people of wealth—and everybody knows
that he can build as pretty small sail craft as
ever decked old ocean with their snowy wings.
Besides his knowledge of engineering ;is
equal and above many so-called engineers.
For many years he lias run, and aided in run
ning the wharf engine which pulls the ears to
and from the steamers.—and to-day no man
understands it better or can operate it with
more lficieney. Well, that place has been
made vacant by the withdrawal of Mr. Dixon,
who left for Dakota some weeks ago—aud we
have been led to these remarks in recom-
meningd Smith for the vacancy. He ought to
have it—lie*don’t know howto ask for it—aDd
he is too faithful a servant to be passed by
because of his diffidence. He will open his
big eyes when he sees we are meddling with
his business, for he knows nothing of this no
tice ; but because merit is buried in an hum
ble employee The Democrat will not with
hold it’s light from upon it. Maj. Shellman,
Oscar Jockson and Dan Mitchell, the three
men who have been agents of the Road since
its advent here will testify to all we have said ;
aud we respectfully call the attention of the
railroad authorities to the subject. The pro
motion of Smith to this place would be noth
ing more than he deserves—besides being a
boon to himself and his increasing family.
The Caddo Belle.
This steamboat made her first trip to onr
city last Tuesday, and carried 300 bales of
cotton to Columbus for H. C. Curry & Co.
Her capacity is 600 bales, and it is said that
her speed is greater than any other boat on
the river.
Wo had heard much of the Caddo Belle,
and were prepared to see an old dirty looking
scow—a sort of temporary expedient for haul
ing cotton, but were agreeably surprised.
On the other hand we saw a very nice looking
steamer with great freight room, and good
passenger accommodations.
Capt. Charles A, Klink, ono of the oldest
aud most popular of onr river men, is her
commander, and he showed ns through her
neat and tasty cabin, which we found ample
in every respect to provide for the comfort of
travelers. Truo there is nothing decorative
or fancy about it, nor is it an extensive thing
but its cleanly appearance and freshness is
striking. The births are well ventilated and
provided with spring matrasses, and with
their neat bedding are quite inviting.
We say three cheers for the Caddo Bello,
and her gallant Captain and crew. May she
visit onr town regularly, and find each trip
profitable.

nearly one thousand pictures of the leading

Not long since a man came all the way from

papers; whoever thinks otherwise is mistaken.
See the new advertisement of W..A. Davis,
of Whigham, in this issue. It is plenty large
enough to be seen without hurting yonr eyes,
reader, and should you go near Whigham stop
in and trade with Dim. In fact, it will pay
you to go to Whigham from all four ends of
the county, and get the benefit of the im
mense bargains he is now offering the public.
Mr. Seth W. Babbit, an old Bainbridgeite is
behind tho counter, and wants to see his
friends. W. A. Davis is a live man—the fact
that ho advertises in his county paper proves
it. Success to him, now and hereafter.
RESOLUTIONS
Thanksgiving Bay.
To-day has been set aside, Dy order of the
President of the United States, as Thanks
giving Day, and, judging from our.exchanges,
will be pretty generally ubserved all over the
country. To-day the greatest nation on
earth will bow at the throne of Mercy and
offer up a thankful prayer to the King of tho
Universe for His many blessings.
Our ministers have given notice that the
day would he properly obsarved in Bainbridge
and requested the business men to please
close their respective places of business du
ring the hours oi services. We hope they will
find it convenient to comply with the re
quest.
Services will be held at the Presbyterian
Church, commencing at- Iff o’clock a. m. Bev.
N. T. Burks will preafch a sermon from the 67
Psalm, taking the whole Psalm for his text.
Notice.
The anniversary of the Missionary Society
of the Methodist Sunday School will be held
on next Friday evening, beginning at seven
i o’clock. The public are hereby invited to at
tend. The exercises will consist of singing,
recitations by the children, and speeches.
The interest of the ocasion will be greatly in
creased by the presence of Bev. B. M. Lock-
wood. The Sunday School lacks a good deal
of having raised the amount they set out to
raise at the beginning of the year. The
members of the school are requested to bring
their contributions to swell the amonnt, if
possible, to the sixty dollars they set ont to
raise. Should the school fail to raise the en
tire amount, we will call on the audience for
assistance. N. T. Burks.
