The Augusta, Tallahassee and Gulf
Railroad.
There was quite a gathering ui Au
gusta, Tallahassee and Gulf Railway
officials in Tallahassee Saturday. They
mean business, and the road is coming
right along.
A Eloridian reporter cornered Chief
Engineer Cook and learned from him
that work was going steadily forward
on the bridge across the Uchlockonec
river, piling already having been driv
en down lor about half the distance
across. They are driving through a
white clay, and get a solid lime rock
foundation—equal to stone.
Chiet Engineer Cook also informed
the reporter that the contractors would
be here about the first of September,
and that then the work ol construction
would begin on this side of the river
in earnest, and that there would be no
let-up until the road was completed.
The Floridian’s special reporter at
the river sends in about the same in
formation. He says: “It is railroad
now in good earnest—about one-half
of the river is piled, and work keeps
moving—they drive through stiff clay
and sl’ike solid rock—splendid found
ation for a bridge.”
Those who have money to invest
will strike a bonanza by buying lands
anywhere along the line.—Floridian,
Tallahassee.

Sanford’s Fertilizer Bill.
An important bill was passed in the
Senate on Tuesday—the Sanford fertil
izer bill, winch seems to be more ac
ceptable than Brady’s, and threatens
to drive that measure out. There was
considerable debate over it, but only
three voled against it. The bill pro
vides that on the demand of the pur
chaser of any commercial fertilizer or
composting chemical, a fair represen
tation sample, securely sealed
glass bottle, shall be deposited in the
office of the ordinary ol the county in
which the purchaser resides or in which

PiTTSM iio, Pa., Aug. 20.—The
general impression that the South
Fork dam would never he rebuilt up
pears to be erroneous, as there i
strong probability that a fishing lak
will again he established in that Ideal
ity. A member of the fishing club of
that name said to day that the belief
that South Fork dam had been
abandoned by the club was a mistak
en idea. The club, he said, could not
afiord to lose the money it had invest
ed in real estate in that locality. The
property was worth fully 8200,000,
and if the fishing resort was not re
established the whole investment
would become almost a dead loss.
The intention was not to Imild a dam
of the size of the one destroyed, hut
one which would make the lake much
less in size, so that in the event of the
harrier again giving way no, destruc
tion to life and property would (bi-

be made until the damage suit now

settled, cither by being paid or com
promised. The object is to establish
a fair sized pond capable of holding a

Bomk, Ga., Aug. 21.—The saddest
event in the annuls of Odd Fellow
ship in Georgia, occurred this morn
ing at the meeting of the Grand
Lodge. P. G. M. Adolph Brandt, of
Atlanta, one of the leading lawyers of
Georgia, was suddenly stricken with
apoplexy while on the floor speaking.
He had arisen to address the grand
body, and had only spoken, when
suddenly, placing his hand on his
heart, he exclaimed: “Oh! God, what
is the matter with me?” He fell hack
in his chair and expired in a few
moments. 11 is untimely death has

Fellows, hut the citizens of Home in

Dalton, (la., August 10. —The
Farmers’ alliance in this part of Geor
gia, together with the cotton mill
arc fighting the jute trust with a vim
which prognosticates success. The
Crown cotton mills of this place are
making the fim st quality of cotton
bagging and are receiving orders from
all over the south, as wherever it is
seen it takes the preference. They
make it like cotton duck, forty inches
wide, and a bale of the lleccy staple
wrapped up in it looks like a society
belle dressed for a picnic.
Mr. Harrell's bill, which provided

defeated in the House on Wednesday,
by a vote of HI to *7. That settles

Dots from Valdosta.
Quito a romantic wedding took
place here last night at the Central
hotel, witnessed by a number of the
guests; Mr. L. R. Stephens, of Adel,
to Miss Addie Milcy, of Sparks. The
lady arrived here on Saturday last, on
a visit to friends, and on Monday the
gentleman called upon her with an
introductory letter from a friend ol his.
It seems that it was one of those cases
of “love at first sight,’’ as all necessary
arrangements for the tv^ding were
soon made. Rev. R. T. Gnodrum
went through with the solemn ccremo
ny of pronouncing them man and wife,
and the bridal couple went their way
rejoicing.

JOS. IIA NS FIX MERRILL,
Mayor pro tern.
Thomasville, Oa., Aug. 10, 1880.
Why is It
People will continue to buy groceries
on .'10 days’ time, and thereby pay 15
per cent, more for them than they can
buy them for for tlic spot cash. Don’t
you know you are paying 15per cent,
on some account the merchant can’t
collect? He has to charge those who
do pay, enough to make good his
losses in bad accounts. It is perfectly
legitimate and business-like, too! He
has to live. But while it is perfectly
right in him to charge you that way,
il is very foolish in you to pay ft,
becauso you can make that per cent,
yourself by buying your goods for
cash. I will take your order at regu
lar prices, and then discount it 15 per
cent, for the cash.
Respectfully,
M. P. Pickett.
