Hoy Wanted.
Jacob Born wants a smart indnstrions boy
to learn the harness trade. For a boy who
wants to be independent this is a good open
ing.
XIio I'll lit Hirer Store.
See the nev* advertisement of this famons
establishment in this paper. Next week we
shall take a stroll through it and let our read
ers know all about it.
A Substantial House.
We mean tno People's Store. It
one
of the most substantial mercantile bouses in
Southwest Georgia. The clever and enter
prising young proprietor, Mr. Jonas Loeb,
keeps square up with the times and warmly
contests for public favor with the oldest veter
an. His motto is “excelsior.”
This season Mr. Loeb comes to the front
with a large aud select stock of spring and
summer goods which lie proposes to sell at
the very lowest possible prices. His stock is
not for show but to supply the wants of the
people. He knows wliat the people need and
he bought goods that would not fail to give
satisfaction.
Look out for bis new ad. next week.
Hew Saw Hills.
Col. Blood, of Kansas, as been in onr town
ttjp week prospecting for a site to erect ex
tensive saw mills. He has spent some time
traveling over the timber regions of Georgia,
and while he has found good timber he is
satisfied that Decatur county furnishes the
beat anywhere, and hence has decided to be
gin operations on the banks ^of the Flint in
Bainbridge.
Col. Blood is one of the largest mill owners
in the west, has unlimited means, and we
hail his coming among us with pleasure. He
thinks that other western mill men will come
here to carry on their lumber business. De
catur county is certainly rich in her unbound
ed pine forests—the largest and finest in the
world.
How Girls kiss.
The Maine girl, tall and ruddy, kisses as
though she werere taking an impression in
the chewing gum ol her native state. The
Massachusetts girl kisses in tlie Greek style,
Havered with brown bread. The New York
girl goes at it as if she were dabbling in a
Ball stret speculation. The kiss of the New
Jersey girl is fiery as a taste of apple-jack,
better known as Jerscw lightning. Little
Deleware’s girls as soft as the peacties which
grow there. A Maryland kiss is rich and juicy
as a tarrapin stew. In the Old Dominion you
are met with a genuine hospitality ; the girls
kiss as though they wanted you to stay. The
Ohio girl is described as possessing the qual-
ties of the Ohio man—she wants all she can
get and gets all sliecan. A Louisiana kiss is
said to bo like eating sugarcane, while North
Carolina girls stick like tar ; but in Texas the
kiss of our bright-eyed lasses “takes the cake,”
and the fellow whose] lips become glued to
her'n dies away to the slow time of her beat
ing heart.—Austin ( Tex.) Statesman.
Now t Rienzi, ours, since you have seen fit to
slight your native State on this sweet and all-
important subject, take a scat upon the stool
of correction and listen. It is the vivacious
little lassies ot Georgia, with their rosebud
mouths, that have “taken the cake.” When
tlieir soft, warm lips touch yours, you catch
your breath in a transport of unutterable joy
and feel like you were floating in honey with
fifteen thousand tons of tho extract of sweet
ness glued to your lips.
We get our information on this subtect,
from George Westmoreland.
Improvements.
Already a spirit of improvement is infect-
g"our community and the people are brush
ing up for the bright aud prosperous era just
ahead.
Mrs. Swearengen has made a handsome ad
dition to her house bn Evans street, in the
way of four more rooms. The wboie building
has been repainted.
Mr. Fred Smith is making his residence
near the depot, one of the most attractive in
the city.
Mr. O. Rostium is adding considerable itn-
provcmeineuts to his place, on Evans street.
The Methodist Parsonage is undergoing a
new coat of paint and the Methodist Church
is to have a new steeple.
Messrs. Patterson and Stacy are erecting a
bakery just in rear of A. E. Smith’s, on Broad
street.
Dr. Butts has put a new fence around his
vacant lot on Broughton street. B’e learn he
intends erecting a neat little cottage there.
A new fence encloses Col. Cutter’b front
yard.
Mrs. Carrie Donalson will have her pretty
little cottage repainted.
Mr. D. D. Stnlts is having a cistern dug in
rear of his store on Water street.
We notice several cottages in process of
building by some of our colored citizens.
To-llay, the Klee I ion.
We liave only a word to say in reference to
the election to-day. The candidates are all
named nnder the head of “Announcements”
in this paper, from which the intelligent vo
ter will find no difficulty in making a choice.
The Demochat has advocated no particular
one of the candidates, for the manifest reason
that there is no politics in the race, and all
the aspirants being friends of the editor. We
would, however, say that the man to be voted
for ought to have the following necessary
qualifications:
1. He should bo thoroughly competent to
fill the office.
2. He should bp honest, of high character,
and a man the people have conlidenee in.
3’ He should be able without difficulty to
give the required bond for the faithful per
formance of duty. That bond will approxi
mate $40,000 ; and viewed in the light of re
cent sad experience, the County Commission
ers will not be satisfied with a bond of straw.
The above are the three requisites of a per
son to till the office of Tax Collector. Can a
man be found on our list of caudiSates who
will meet these requirements? Undoubtedly
so. They are all well known to the voters of
Decatur aud need no pointing out from us.
In conclusion we would say for those of the
candidates, Messrs. Powell, Bates and Rus
sell, who are complained at because they hap
pened to belong to a recent Grand Jury which
fonud true bills, upon evidence, in certain
cases, and who are being made targets of for
that reason—that we had rather be beaten
for an office, if the nature of that beating is
on account of sworn duty performed, than
to be thrice elected upon any other issue.
All good people will treasure ttwe the cause up,
and the names of the vanquished will live in
their hearts as men who knowing their duty,
dared to perform it.

Election to-day.
April showers have commenced.
WE HEAR,
Whispebed Theocqh oub Repotobial Tele
PHOSE.
John V^est and Ed. Clark foUow close up- ™ a ‘ Mus(lnito wiU P re9ent h “ IiUle
bill on the first.
on the heels of each other.
Bainbridge can boast of several too utterly
utter young men.
The wind and rain came together Monday
night. It was not an April shower either.
The young people had a pleasant dance at
the residence of Mrs. A. Williams, last Friday
evening.
Major Eliot, of Florida is in the city, repre
senting the interest of some very valuable
and improved gin machinery.
Stults has a bran new cistern. The whole
of Water Street bossed the digging, with
Majors Stnlts and Peabody as civil engineers.
Next Saturday is the firat; and “Somebody’s
coming with a smile for yon.” Yea, some
body’s coming with a bill that’s doe.
The steamer Evcringham was at our wharf
Saturday evening, taking on a heavy cargo of
guano. She carries 1G00 sacks besides other
freight. •
Gentlemen we must have that fair. What
has the committee done towards it ? Please
don't say now that you have neglected to do
anything.
That excellent lady and enterprising Mil-
iner, Mrs. M. J. Reynolds, is now at the
North purchasing the handsomest Spring
goods ever brought to this section.
LOST.—a small gold button, engraved on
the upper side and bearing the initial “P” on
the under side. The finder will be suitably
rewarded by leaving the same at this office.
No other town of the suae size in Georgia
can boast of as handsome a little News Depot
as the one furnished Bainbridge by Mr. J. B.
Graves. He also keeps a pretty line of sta
tionery.
We do not like to appear immodest, but
would just like to remark that Bainbridge is
the boss town of Southwest Georgia and will
before many years have passed, rank among
the first in the State.
Mr. Wm. McLendon, Jr., spent several days
in the city this week. Hope he’ll hurry up
and finish that railrcad and come home for
good. “Oh, Willie, how we miss you,” is the
sigh of more than one tender heart.
Decatur county farmers are planting a largo
acreage in corn this year. Even the colored
farmer, with his muchly taxed mule is in
clined to quit cotton or It t it come in as a
secondary consideration, after h:s provision
crop is attended. Thrice happy Decatur.
The crew of the Everingham, while loading
that steamer at the railroad wharf Saturday
evening indulged in a general melee aud sev
eral craniums were cracked. Corn-juice start
ed the row, and C3pt. Whitesides squelched
it.
Mr. J. Steininger, the popular proprietor o
Hie famous Flint River Store returned Mon
day, from New York, where he went to pur
chase one of the largest and handsomest
Spring stocks ever opened in Southwest Geor
gia. Your eyes will open when you see his
goods.
Mr. E. A. Polilman, the live grocer, has
bought Alf. Leon’s fine horse, and a handsome
wagon and nowsrun’s a delivery wagon on tho
regular metropolitan schedule. His wagon
starts out every morning at nine o’clock.
Look out for it this morning and have your
pantry supplied.
If you-want to make a printer blind, crazy
mad, just go into the composing room, s’and
behind him while he is at work, look over his
shoulder and read his “copy” while you en
gage him in conversation. If this don’t fe'ch
him you may know he has taken a homestead
on his religion.
“It is a sin to steal a pin,
A crime to cut a throat,
A darn sight bigger to stop a nigger
From putting in his vote.”
But if such a crime was ever committed in
Decatur county it will never be repeated, for
the colored people arc their own bosses now.
That Bainbridge will be well supplied with
ice the coming season.
* That within the next ten years Bainbridge
will have a population of 16.000.
That the firemen are making grand prepar
ations for their May festivities.
That half a dozen new candidates will prob
ably be ripe this morning.
That Miss Flora Shackleford's calesthenic
class will give an entertainment soon.
That the 26th of. next monthps Memorial
Day, and no preparations have been made for
the occasion.
That a couple of ladies, capable of can viag
through whatever they undertake will bring
onr dramatic talent to the front next month
That Dr. Batts will baild the first mile on
tbe railroad extension, irom Bainbridge to
Chattahoochee.
That Bainbridge is bound to be tbe city of
Southwest Georgia before many months have
rolled by. We are to have two new railroads,
a fine hotel a city hall, three new stores and
another bakery. These are already down on
the slate.
A Big House aud a UIg Stock.
A. E. Smith has just opened one of the
largest, best selected and prettiest stocks of
goods we have ever seen in this market. Ho
showed us through it the other day, and we
were really astonished at the magnitude
thereof.
In hats of straw, of wool, of felt—for ladies,
children and men we never saw the like. In
clothing, boots aud shoes the variety is end
less and all in the latest spring style. Trunks,
valises, travelling bags, baskets, it seems that
he has enough to supply the country. But to
note everything would fill up a dozen newspa
pers, and we desist. We will, however, say
that his stock of laces, edgings, etc., is beau
tiful beyond comparison. There is the Ham
burg, Swiss, Spanish silk, Oriental, Ficue,
and a hundred other sorts, all making an as
sortment calculated to put the ladies into
rhapsodies. Then besides, those lace cur
tains, tidies, etc., beatB the market.
In dress goods the stock is superb, such aB
lawns, dotted swiss, piques, yosemite stripes,
satins, buntings, mohairs, etc, etc.
Of parasols he has a car load, and some of
the prettiest we ever saw, varying from 25
cents to $6,50.
The furniture department is up stairs and
there you get anything in that line you want,
and cheap too from the fact that Mr. Smith
owns an interestjin a fnrniture mannlactury.
His grocery stock is immense. For instance
500 bbls flour and 100 sacks coffee, and other
articles in proportion show the extent of it.
He is prepared to sell wholesale as the im- •
mense piles of goods unerringly attest.
Of Mr. Smith’s clerical force we notice that
Mr. Isaac Loeb has the Dress Goods Depart
ment in charge ; Mr. Wise has the clothing ;
Mr. Henry Smith the fancy goods; while
Dwight Guriy takes charge of the shoes—and
Mr. Smith himself supervising the whole.
Mr. Smith is a lire merchant, does business
by live methods, patronizes The Demochat
and prospers. He thinks he will increase his
tremendous business 50 percent this year.
Last year ne said his business was superb- -his
customers paid up promptly aud were satis
fied.
Mr. Smith has great hopes of the prosperi
ty of Bainbridge and onr section, aud with
that faith has invested more largely in spring
goods this season than ever before. His grand
receptions to the public for the past two
nights, concluding to-night, have attracted
our people, anu all are dazzled at the
goods placed npon exhibition.
Hnmanily the Same.
The following reflections from Oliver Gold
smith’s “Reverie at the Boar’s Head,” we
think good enough for repetition here:
“Let idle deciaimers mourn over the de
generacy of the age ; hat in my opinion every
age is the same. This I am sure of, that man
in every season is a poor fretful being, with
no means to escape the calamities of the
times, but ty endeavoring to forget them. * *
You will find mankind neither better nor
worse now than formerly. The vices of an
uncivilized people are generally more detest
able, though not so frequent, as those in po
lite society. It is the same luxury, which for
merly stuffed your alderman with plum-por
ridge, and now cram him with turtle. It is
the same low ambition, that formerly induced
a courtier to give np. hisreligicn to please his
king, and now persuades him to give np his
conscience to please his minister. It is the
same vanity, that formerly stained onr ladies
cheeks and necks with wood and now paints
them with, carmine. Your ancient Briton
formerly powdered his hair with red earth like
brick-dust, to appeal frightful: your modern
Briton cuts his hair on the crown and plasters
it down with hog’s lard: and this to make him
look killing. It is the same folly and the same
vice, only different as viewed through the
glass of fashion.”

Valuable Suggestion to Mothers.
Dear Mr. Editor :—Long experience in enre
of children, and great success in bringing
them safely through sickness, gives confi
dence to assure that cronp, whooping-congh,
broncitis, diptheria, and all throat aud cuest
affections will be speedily relieved and cured
by using Dr. Acker’s English Remedy, which
is exceedingly palatable, and may be sately
safely given to the youngest iofant. Adults
will find it the best and most potent known
specific for consumption, asthma, etc., and a
single trial will prove this true.
