An Atlanta merchant said to 11s: "You don’t seem to have many live merchants in your town.” “Yes,” said wo. “We have a few, whv ?” “Well, the best sign of thrifty, enter prising, wide awake business men is generally shown by liberally patroniz ing the local press, of which the News is not an index.” “Thats so was the only reply we could make. “The Editor," he continued, “may puff and blow about the enterprises and hospitality of his town and people, but if his paper does not show a liber al support from his town, it is not al ways infalible, but I can almost guess what sort of business men a town is composed of if I can see the local pa per.” To the Voters* of Units <'utility W.

Etheridge, formerly of I’cr ry, Ga., returned from New York last J/onday. lie informs us that he pur chased a magnificent lot of dry goods &c., from the immense bargain coun ters of wholesale merchants in that citv. Mr. Etheridge is evidently a thorough merchant of exquisit taste, and we venture to say he will bring as handsome assortment of elegant goods as there is to be found in any market. He is use to competition and promises to sell his goods at short profits, lie will open up his stock in a few days in one of the handsome store rooms now being finished up by Col. M. V. Me- Kibben.

We are not adventurers, but come to Jackson to live and wish to he iden tified with her every interest, and all our energy will be used to push her into a live progressive town. In order to do this, it is necessary to prove and show the people that they can buy tlieir goods here as cheap as any where and dispose of tlieir produce as advan tageously. We as merchants propose to do this. An experience lof 10 or 15 years in the business, qualifies and sus tains us we think, in the assertions that we are “up tc snuff” as to close points and every endeavor to buy cheap and sell accordingly shall ho made. The latter member of our firm lias just returned from New York where all goods have been bought from first hands, at the lowest possi ble cash prices, and discounting our bill the cost of transportation has more than been save I, and in propos ing to give our customers the benefit of this, our advantage is at once seen. Our stock will consist principally of dry goods, Notions, Boots, Shoes. Hots, Hardware, Tinware, Groceries Ac. IFe will buy such produce as there is a demand for. Believing it to he a mu tual advantage, we propose doing a strickly cash business. Mr. J. 11.

Editor News: —While traveling over the country recently, in both Northern and Southern Georgia, many questions were asked about Jackson, and on being told it was on what is called a “boom,” the inquiry was fre quently made, “are not many of those moving into Jackson mere adventur ers?” My rep.ip was “No: r but fearing I might not report comic;’y, I have, since my return home, put myself to 1 be trouble to find nut n; inncli as pos sible about our new coiners. 1 find they are almost invariably good, Julia hie men—most of them are men ol means, anti those whose means arc limited have good character and got.(l credit.
