In view of the importance of Ath- . ns a.- a trading centre, wo eotcniend the columns of the Bannkr, now in iis sixty-second year, to our merchants as a medium in every way worthy their advertising patronage. We have r. large and constantly increas- ing ci>eolation in Middle, Faslern and North-rusleru Gctrgia, and our sub- sciiliers look to the columns of our pa- pci to sic where they can obtain bnr- ■_ ;iins.

No doubt his ef forts will lie largely rewarded, and Savannah, the Central Railroad and es|iecially his business house, realize the advantages of his active labors. < n ill 1..at to Cotton Planters. We don’t know that our merchants have or intend to buy straw Sr' grass bagging for cotton, but we feel it due our fanning renders to inform them that the cotton exchanges of the cities from Savannah to New York have des clued against this class of bagging because it is not adapted to use, and ■ positive damage to cotton. Furs .iiorinore, circulars were sent out from iliesc cotton marts addressed to buys or? and planters, making known this decision, and notifying parties at in- tere-l, that cotton brought to market in Mich bagging would not command tlie lull market price.

In our last issue was a commuuica- tion from Dr. Carlton in reference to the Slate University in which the fai ry lowing paragraph occurred : “Dr. Mcll. as a parliamentarian, 1ms no superior, if equal, in all the rH laud. As such his license of Parlia- ■ inentary law has been adopted by the !■ most iiuporant assemblies of our [ 1ft States and h s proficiency iu this busi- ^^ness has often caused him to be cho- as the presiding t.fficer of some of the most important and honorable assemblies which have ever met in our mid-t. UustneasProspeots ofAthnns The prospect for a heavy fall busi ness was never better, and why? As a general thing the seasons have been propitions and the crops i n the thirty or forty counties that trade at Athens are good. For several years past Athens has been gradually ad ding to her mercantile territory until now’ she is the rival of Augusta aud Atlanta. Mauy causes might be as signed for this flattering condition of affairs. We have enterprising mer chants. We have unlimited resident capital. We are the centre of a large and wealthy farming and manufactu ring section. We have competing freight lines which enable our mer chants to lay their goods down at as little cost as those of Augusta or At lanta Heretofore, we have lacked storage room for the products of the farm that naturally sought our mar ket and for storing the gooda that could have been sold had they been on hand. These deficiencies have been supplied during the summer by the erection of immense ware-houses and magnificent stores. Our merchants are preparing for a large jobbing ae well as retail trade, and we havn't a doubt that with their facilities they can compete with any city in the State. We trust our farmer friends in the more remote counties may at least give Athens a trial and compare our prices for produce and merchandise with the prices of other cities. Si.-li'.-l s.-lmol tor Diiys anil Oli-la. Mrs. J. A. Crawford will, on the 1st Monday in September, open at her residence a select school for boys nnd girls. This is a fine opjiorl unity for those who desire to enter their little Ixiys or girls in a real first-class pri mary school. Those friends who de sire to patronize Mrs. Crawford are requested to enter their children at ouee, as the time for opening the school is near at hand. Mrs. Crawford also desires a class of some six or eight boys, between the ages ol twelve aud fourteen, which she will instruct in the languages ; also in mathematics, this being a specialty with her. If her school demands it a competent assis tant will be secured so as to make hers, in every respect, a real first-class pri mary and preparatory school. rrlbutc of UeMpcct.
