AOAIHBVI CUE. The refh'Ction from the mirror leads Homo of our young gouts to stroke their feeble moustache with inspiration. Very little attention to or interest in tho Presidential election is manifested in this the bonny hills of Georgia. We bask in the same sunshine, enjoy the same fireside, have all the comforts of life, attend the usual candy pulling and will b * able to pop a fire cracker or so on rhnVrmas with the same inspiration,but without a yell for either political power. A courier brings in the news from the more mountainous section that votes were cast there for Andrew Jackson. Calhoun was fairly represented by a party of young men last Sunday, who came down to attend religious services. We would congratulate the coming ad ministration if in the matter of mail ser vice they should made a change and have in the postoffice here as efficient an officer as our present one, Mr. R. L. McCollu m. Capt. T. M. Fulton celebrated the closing exercises of his school last Fri day night by giving his scholars and their friends a sumptuous repast long to be remembered. Through the energy of that good lady, Mrs. Fulton, and the interest of her friends, nothing was left undone to make all have a pleasant and enjoyable time. After partaking of the delicacies of the season, and witnessing the consumption of substantiate by the elder folks, games and other amusements wore indulged in, without a floor mana ger until a late hour, when recess was called, books and slate were laid aside, the curtain drawn, and this the bright epoch in the history of Capt, Fulton’s school was declared at an end. It is not necessary for a satirical illus tration of the accommodations of our depot, without attaching truth to this. Rut if Mr. Superintendent or any execu tive officer of the W. & A. Railroad would like to have an insight into the true condition of this depot by a faithful , cartoon in the Kennesaw Gazette he can have the same by applying to the writer. If our depot cannot repaired or made more accommodating, then we would like to know it. The bridegroom’s best man has played a conspicuous part very lately, and as tin marriage bell has been riuging loud this important personage is in demand.

Mr. Tumliu, of Marietta, has bet mi in the pulpit at the Baptist church conducting a series of revivals. The good derived theretrom has been won derful, many converts and accessions to church have been made. Some portion of our village was thought to be foi tifiod against the doctrines of Christ, but these good ministers have made a grand charge, and to see the lights from many lanterns showing the way to church evi denced the fact that many prisoners were taken. Redmond. CASS STATION. Rev. B. B. Quillian spent several days in Atlanta last week. Mr. John Taylor and lady, of Summer ville, visited relatives here within the week. It is true that Prof. Marshall will leave us shortly, He will have a public sale Saturday and move with his family to Dallas as soon as he can wind up his -tflairs at Cass. We will be truly sorry 5 o give up so valuable a citizen, but the ,#est wishes of a host of friends will fol w him to his new home. ‘•Sam Sly” talks as if he was “some . mipkin.” “Sam” paste this in your t .t: I shall not be dictated toby you to what 1 say in the future, but shall i governed by the counsel of my own just so I don’t go beyond the i, ,nds of propriety. I just consider the rce of the insinuation and let it go its worth. Whenever Mr. “Sly” is 1 iued to deal harshly he can do so. u back your ears and come again. j Mr. Jno. A, Bradley, of Atlanta, was ’ visiting here the first of the week. We sailed along very nicely at the spelling bee Friday night until we became oblivious to oui surroundings, gazing with the greatest admiration at the daz zling brilliancy of two sparkling black eyes which adorned a face that seemed itself to be the very incarnation of all that is sweet and lovely. We were sud denly aroused from our spell, and had to “miraculously” take our seat. Mr. B. F. Posey has bought Prof. Mar shall’s place and will move to Cass in the near future. Quite an acquisition, and we are glad to welcome him. We have never attempted to wear a bustle yet, “Slim Jim,” but if you will be so kind as to loan us one we will under take the feat. Accept my sympathy, “Jackie.” I hope you will soon recover. W.C.W. JYI< GU l RE’S CROSS ING. We have hud one killing frost, last Monday morning. Capt. Maddox spent a few days last week in Atlanta.

We are all proud of Mr. McGuire’s im provement on his dwelling. The coat of paint adds materially to its handsome appearance, Mies Lena Adams has returned to her home in Atlanta. Hitup Maddox cut his left wrist very severely last week. Severed a small blood vessel and the flow of blood was nearly equal to the fright it gave him and his mamma. Mome. cassville. As I dare not converse personally with our prominent citizens, I want to say this to them, hoping that it will meet with their approbation, and that some one will at once take it into their hands and make a big success of it: I see m the Cor uant-American that the people of Cartersville had a spelling bee. Why can’t Cassville have one? The “bee” would attract a large crowd, for every body within several miles would attend. It would afford an incalculable amount of pleasure for all; and as we have not had any public entertainment in some time, let’s have a “spellin’ bee.” I will guarantee that we can get up a sufficient number of spellers to make it very in teresting. “Bam Sly” will certainly spell and will divulge himself on the occasion. It is far from any intention to dictate; but if Mr. Bob Smith will talk the thing up, we havea “bee,” and that rightsoon. How does that strike you? There will be a singingat the Methodist church Sunday evening. Preaching at the Baptist church Sun day morning and night. There were 100 votes cast here last Tuesday—just onethird the district vote. 96 were Democratic and 4 Prohibiton No Republican tickets being sent here. Some good brother said at prayer meeting the other night that we ought to loye one another.. He had never heard of anyone lovingtheir neighbor tc death. We never, either, but we can remember when we loved a neighbor’s girl so hard that it nearly killed us. Don’t know how it affected her. Will Teat came down from, Chatta nooga Saturday to visit his father’s family. Spencer Phillips was here Sunday. We are all very sorry about Cleveland’s defeat, but will have to console ourselves with the spelling bee. Sam Sly. EUHAIJLEE. Rains of last week have put farmers behind with their work.

If any of your people should have cai>se to come down this way there will be no excuse for them to return hungry. Mr. D. Lowery is sowing wheat quite extensively. He calculates turning his large farm into a stock farm. This is as it should be. The people of Oak Grove and Btiles boro are alive to the importance of good schools. Can’t we bestir ourselves and move out in the matter. We have children that ought to be in school every day. Let’s get good teachers and do something. Our children are growing up in ignorance, and let us give them the benefit ot a good school. Kiser. FOKl). Having failed in obtaining Profs. Ethridge and Fulton, the patrons met again Saturday, There were three applicants, Professors Strosier, O’Ham lin and Proctor. All are splendid teach ers.

I can say this much for him; he is a little human being, weight, one hundred pounds, and wears a hat at that. No one has guessed who he is yet, so you all can guess again. Handy Feet.

Washington, I). 0., Nov. 7. —Justice Lamar ventured out this afternoon to view the remains of the Democratic corpse. “Are you looking forelection news?” was asked. “Oh, no,” was the reply, “1 have got over that; lain not one of those who are always waiting and hoping for some thing better when they feel and see that the tide is against them.” “Then you think that Harrison is elec ted?” “Everything points that way, and I don't think there will be any change in what is now believed to be the general result. I anticipate that later informa tion may make it more favorable for Harrison.” “Did you anticipate this result?” “By no means. On the contrary, it is a great surprise to me.” “Do you think the tariff issue is respon sible for the Democratic defeat?” “No, sir, I do not; and I do not know to what to attribute this defeat. In re gard to the tariff, I remember reading with great interest the testimony taken by the Tariff Commission of 1882, and I was quite struck with the fact that there was not a single one of the man ufacturers examined who did not admit that his business could stand at least a small percentage of tariff reductions. Ofcourse a man’s statements, even under oath, are naturally somewhat colored when they are in regard to his pecuniary interests; but yet all who were examined then admitted that a slight reduction of the tariff upon articles employed in their manufactures might be made without serious injury to their business. This is what the tariff measure proposed by the Administration would do. It was a reform measure and not a free-trade bill.” The European hotel at Chattanooga, was burned on Monday night.
