With great variety of goods, too numerous to mcnt : on. So low the prices are, they beat the lowest calculation; Which makes us as a family sing out like all creation.” LOCAL HAPPENINGS. The News of the Day Told in Brief—Personals, Etc. We do job work. Ami that, is the reason we trade with -THE- FAIR and SQUARE PLACE TO BUY Staple & Fancy DRY GOODS, CLOTHING, Furnishing 1 Goods, NOTIONS, Ac. ALWAYS Stocked with a full line of new and seasonable goods. ALWAYS Ready to make you the lowest prices, quality considered. ALWAYS Ready to servo you well and save you money. F. N. LOHNSTEIN, 132 Broad St. Yesterday was a lovely day. The “Clarendon" sounds well. Mr. Cordon Cassels is in town. The pulso of trade is quickening. Mrs. McAuley has several art pupils. Remember that to-day is the holy Sabbath. The church bells will ring this morning. Heed the call. Several rich phosphate farmers were in town yesterday. Mr. T. F. Purcell, of Atlanta, wbb in the city yesterday, a guest of the Gulf. Some «f Thomasville’s surplus cap ital should be put into manufacturing establishments. Think of this. We are glad to learn that Messis. T. J. Ball & Bro. are rapidly build ing up a good jobbing trade. This is on the right lino^ Before placing your next order for job work givo us a “whack” at it, We are doing more work, better work and cheaper work than anybody in South Georgia. We regret to learn that Mr. Jim Milieu, well known here, met with an accident a low days since in Bulloch county, by being throwu from a buggy, He is up again, however. Thomasville is invincible when united ; but she is weak when there is a lack of unity among her citizens. This fact should impress every prop erty holder and business man in the tOWD, lift said- that 8 large -firm here, who have heretofore confined them selves to the retail trade, will soon launch out into the wholesale busi ness. Thomasville can be made gpod jobbing point; and it will be. There f»r« abundant signs of that activity end bustlp which character izes the winter season ip Tboniasville. New faces are seen on the streets, handsome turnouts whirl along, and a general air of prosperity pervades the town. The friends of Hugh McIntyre— and this includes everybody who knows him—will be pained to learn that he is very ill at the old homestead, two miles from town. No braver, purer, truer spirit, over crossed the cold stream of death. Rev. W - J. Williams and wifo have returned from a delightful trip to Kentucky. Their friends aro glad to seo them here again. Mr. Williams will occupy his pulpit in the Baptist church this morning, and again at night. Attention is called to tho advertise ment of “Jersey Farm.” A fow boarders will be comfortably cared for by Mr. and Mrs. Chastain, at reason able rates. It is very near tho city, among the pines, and will bo found a delightful place, combining the free dom of the country with the advanta ges of the town. Rev. C. I. LaRocho and family re turned yesterday from New York, Maryland and other points North, where they have been spending the summer very pleasantly. Mr. La* Roche will renew regular services in 8t Thomas 'church to-day. He will bo cordially welcomed home by his congregation—and every one else. The business man readily recog nizes tho fact that the lowest price is not always the cheapest. We will not turn out an inferior piece of work nt any price, but will do you a first-: class job of printing, on first-class material, as cheap as anybody. No good business man will tolerate a shoddy piece of work. It does not speak well for bis business. Short Sunday Texts. Kind words are golden. Let your motto be: Purity of pur pose. The home circle is the safest place tor the young. The sweetest words: Mother, Home and Heaven. Mankind is better than it is given credit for; and so is womnnkind. A soft answer is always better than a harsh one. A pleasant “good morning” may dissipato a gloomy day. It is just as easy—and far more pleasant—to be agreeable. Hope is tho main anchor of life; never lose your hold on it. It never pays to give way to despair; the clouds will roll by afterawhiie. The “sweet bye and bye” will bring its consolations. Don’t wear your heart on your sleeve. Speak kindly to children; they always appreciate it. Bad company—and it is found eve rywhere—has rained thousands. Ne man should live for himself alone. This is a world of reciprocity. Scatter all the sunshine you can along the journey of life. Make some one happier. Kindness is rarely lost or thrown away. It will return, may he after many days, but in time it will. Never criticise others Remember that you are subject to criticism your self. Always put the most favorable con struction on the words and actions of others. Do not judge by appearances. A ragged garment frequently covers a noble breast. Never kick a man when he is on the down grade. Slap him on tho back, and tell him to -‘cheer up.” Little courtesies in life go a loug ways toward smoothing the rough places along the journey. Life is made up of sunshine and shadows- If it were not for the latter we would cease to appreciate the for mer. Mon talk ubout being overtaken by temptation; they frequently nvertako temptations themselves. And run to do it at thnt. Do not “sour” on the world. There is plenty of sunshine scattered around, and if you will adjust your glusses properly you will see it—and feel it. The world, as a rule, treats you pretty much the same way in which you treat it. Smile, and it will smile back at you; frown, and you are apt to get a frown jn return. Do not fall out with people for not seeing things as you do. We are not all constituted alike. Be tolerant of the opinions of others. You claim this right; grant it to others. This is Encouraging. G. G. Ackerly, general passenger agent of the J., T. & K. W., at Jack sonville has returned recently from on extended trip through the North and West, on a combined pleasure aud business trip. He believes that this will be the biggest season for the southern tourist travel in the history of the southern icsorls. Speaking to a Times-Union reporter, lie says: . ■ “There arc two big wrthern roads which are going to make big efforts to turn travel south this winter, the Monon route ami the Chicago and Central Illinois and connections. The eastern roads try to get the busi ness west on account of the longer haul, but these roads find that it is to their advantage to get tho southern traffic. The Pul man company arc going to have vestibulcd trains on these roads this winter which will como very nearly to Florida. This will be the first winter that such trains have been run over these routes. Yes, I am convinced thnt the south ward travel will be very heavy and it will commence early.” The vestibule trains mentioned will probably be run via Thomasville, which will be a great benefit to this place. Thomasville Reaching Out. The Southwest Georgian says: “Thomasville is reaching out for better railroad councctions Her busi- ness men are turning their hands in the right direction now, and good re sults-will follow. Varied manufac tures, and sufficient railroad facilities to make her a distributing point for South Georgin, and tho adjacent Flor ida territory are her greatest needs. Already sho has two wholesale houses, the only objection to which is they arc a little too modest to let the peo ple know it.”' - Every nUiancemnn should read Hon. T. J. Livingston’s address to the order. He is one ot the original all! ancemcn of the state, is true to the order, clear headed and worthy the confidence of nllianccmen everywhere. Hcau his address in another column, Cupt. R- G. Fleming, Gcn’l Su perintendent of the 8., F. & W. Ry., will pass through hero this morning on No. 5. Money Easier. New York, Oct. 3.—The weekly review of R. R. Dun & Co., says : Never before has there been in any month so great nil increase in the circulation, or so large a payment of the public debt, as in the month just closed. Tho aggregate eircula - tion is now 81,498,973,700, having in creased 802,009,767 in September. The raomey markets in all parts of the country have turned to greater case. “He Giveth his Beloved Sleep.” November the 12th Is the day set for tho exhibit of stock (horses,) by the Thomas County Stock Breeders, on Broad street, and the grand county basket picnic, shoot ing match, tournament. Ac., &c., at Paradise Park. No admission or en try tees. Thomas, Jefiersou aud Leon counties especially and everybody else generally invited. It will be extremely gratifying to the Southern friends of Dr. J. T. Metcalfe, (0 learn that he has finally downed the grip and that “Richard is himself again.” He writes to a friend here that he is “healthy,'.hungry and sassy,” and that ho will be at his win ter home in the “Mitchell,” again this winter. Dr. Metcalfe is one of Thom- ville’s truest and best friends, and our people keenly appreciate hjs^indness. It goes without saying that the Doc tor will receive many s warm South ern grasp of the band, when he lands at Georgia’s popular winter resort. Miss Johnnie Sloan returned home yesterday afternoon from Atlanta. An Increase of Circulation. Washington, October 2.—Tho statement prepared nt the treasury department shows that there was a net increase of 802,009,707 iu circulation during the month of September, and a net decrease of 810,863,394 in mon ey and bullion in the treasury.

Lot- ton, a colored lawyer who has been practicing in Chattanooga, has been admitted to the Atlanta bar. This gives the city three dusky barristers, Charles H. J. Taylor, A. B. Walker and M. E. Lofton. Taylor is a demo crat, Walker being a native of Canada, has no American politics, and Lofton is a Republican. E. Stone Wiggins has become dis gusted. He informs an anxious, ex pectant public, that ho will not buck against the weather bureau iu Wash ington any more. The Count of Paris is visiting this country. Snobs to tho front. From an Exchange. He secs when their footsteps falter, when their hearts grow weak and faint; lie marks when lite r strergth is failing, and listens to every complaint: lie bids them rest for a season, lor the path ■ way has grown too steep; An ', folded in fair green pastures, “He giveth fils loved nrnssleep.” Like weary and worp-ont children, that sifli for the daylight's close, lie knows that :hoy oft are longing for home and its sweet repose; So lie calls them in from thcii labors ere the shadow; around them creep, And, silently wafeliingo'er them, “Hcgivcth His loved ones sleep.’’ He giveth it, oil, so gently! ns a mother will hush to rest The babe that she so: tly pillows so tendi riy on her breast. Forgotten nrc now tli* trails and sorrows thnt made them weep; For, witli many a shouting promise, “He giveth His loved ones sleep.' Hcgivcth it! Friends t lie dearest can nerer this boon bestow; But He touches the drooping eyelids and placid tlie features grow, Tiicir foes may gather around them, und storms may round them sweep, But, guarding them safe from danger, ‘-tie giveth His lovcdor.es sleep.'' All dread of the distant future, all fears that oppressed today, Like mists that clear in the sunlight have noiselessly passed away. Nor call nor clamor can rouse them from slumber so pure nnd deep, For only nis voice can reach them, who “gi -cth His loved ones sleep.’’ Weep not that their toils arc over, weep not thnt their race is run. God grant wc may rest ns calmly when our work, like theirs, is done! Till then wc would yield with gladness our treasures to Him to keep, And rejoice in tho sweet assurance—"Ho giveth His loved ones sleep.” Omissions in the Tariff Bill. Washington, October 2.—It ap pears that nn important omission was mndo in the tariff bill as enrolled and signed. Section 30 of the internal revenue schedules, which was origi nally stricken out by the senate, and subsequently stored by the confer ence, was completely omitted in en rollment. This section provided for an allowance drawback on smoking and manufactured tobacco, and snuff 1 held iu unbroken packages iu the hands of manufacturers nt data when reductions go into effect. As this date is .January 1st next, however, there will still he ample opportunity for congress at its next session to cor rect tho error by supplemental legis lation.
