Here, there and ev*-ry where were fans earning the unigoe designs of die “Fan party” Over ttie mantles in the panor were fans alternating in size from tlie most to the mo*t dimin' utie. In the centre was one large white feather fan, wrought iu ivory, resting on a spiral silver holder. Miss A/athews was attired in a very be coming gown of rose silk, trimmed in wide frills ef pink lace, and a broad sash falling gracnf at the back. Miss Mathew. /ran.lv gifted in elocu lion, and recited “That Comet” in an ex ceptionally impressive manner. Ah'S Myrtice Ford, of Zebulon, was present on this evening, and by her sweet, natural manners soon won many warm friends and admirers. Miss Dollie Rog ers, a bright, piquant little lady, of -Carnesville, was prc.vnt, and it was with hearty delight that her friends welcomed her return to remain for sometime iu Jackson ds time on its golden wings flitted bj, Mrs. Settle bronght in silver rec avers la den with tiny fan souvenirs; to these were at latched cards tearing inscriptions asking “riddles,” the one answering the gr>*ates;. number of these questions should carry home the prize* Air.

The editor her alds ike advent of the stranger and gets a cussing fur making a mistake as to the sex or date or anival. After awhile the child becomes a man, the minister is called to per form the ceremony, and wtuks off wiln a $lO bill in his vest pocket for his trouble. Tne edror is again called on lo chronicle this event by drawing on hiaimaginxtion to make the bride and groom the best and most respectable people in the coun try. His only pay is to be asked for a few extra copies of his paper to end to some absent friends, aud verv often not even that. In time the once baby, the once happy groom, hut now a man well a iv.tiiced in years, is brought down ov death Again the physician *s call (i in ami makes his biil, the un [dsriaker is present and officiates at j the funeral, and in turn warns one i hundred dollars lor performing the last sad riles, while the editor is expected to complete the diaina by holding up the deceased as a model gentleman, and one who at present is dying up the. g ddea stairs.

Be it enacted by th< General Assembly of the state of Georgia: To the widow of even Georgia consederale soldier and to the widow of everv confederate sol dier, who enlisted in a Georgia reg iment, and the widow of every con federate sol lier, who is herself a native Georgim, now residing in the state of Georgia, and so long as she may caiytinue to reside, there -diall be paid annually, beginning on the 15th day of February, 1893. * pension of S6O; provided, that ihis net shall only apply to such widows as were married at the time of the service of such husband in the con. federate ar.uv, and have remained unmarried since the death of such soldier husband ; provided further, i hat the said soldier husband shall have died in the service of the con federate states, or since from wounds received therein, or disease contracted therein. Sec 2. Be it further enacted by me authority aforesaid, That each applicant for the benefits of this act nhall furnish the evidence of the en lisi ment and service of her husband in the confedeiate army of the state forces, during the war, and hat his death, whether it resulted during or since the war. wae directly the re-> suit of tre service; but it any sol tier husband so enlisted, did not re turn after the close of the war and nothing has been hear i of him since, evidence of these facts shall be con elusive as to his death, The t-vi deuce shall be made by witness, not iess than three, and in conformity with the rult£ and form to be pres erined by the governor. -Each ap plicant mu'O also furnish the eer *ifi ate of the Ordinary of the coun ty wuerein he resides, showing her -residence, and that she resided in Georgia at tWdate ol the approval of this act.

A may ti ink he still owns the whole place. Tnii is not true. He owns on indefinite, possibly unlimited time. B. owns the other half for limi ted time, and possibly may finally own the whole. A enjoys r venue if energy, labor, health, rain and sunshine permit. B enjeya reve nue, work or no work, health or no Health, weather or no weather, De lault in A’s revenues makes loss of bis half certain. Temporary fail ore in reciept of B’s revenues from the other half, make a gain uf part or the whole of A’s half certain to come sometime. Query : Which is the safest part af ih< ownership, the deed or th* mortgage. We admit the above is a mooted question and were-we lefr to umpire just now we would decide in the fa vor of the ‘‘moot/’ When you mort your farm you Sell it Do you not farmer friends? Hon Thomas E. Watson has raised his hands in holy horror be cans® the barrooms in the national Capitol was kent open during the holidays. Of course liquor drinking is a disgrace lo those who indulge it too freely, bup how about the bottle Mr. Watson carries in h s gripe sack? “ ‘Where was it at’ during the holidays?'* the At lanta Herald asks.

The Americans are beginning io work up more and more of their cotton at home. At closr of June, 1892, there wore 293 cotton spill ing mills at work in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mis sissippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkan sas, Tennessee, Missouri and Ken tucky. These mills possessed be tween them 1,938,5245pind1es and 40,608 looms. At the close ol June, 1891, the corresponding number of mills was 283, having between them 1,756,04:7 looms. At the close of I une, 1890, the corresponding nunfoer of mills was 271, having between them 1,624,335 spindles and 36,524 looms. At the close of June, 1889, the number of mills was 259, having between them 1,344,57Cn spindles and 31,435 looms. At the close of June, 1888, the corresponding number of mills was 235, having between them 1,777,90 k spindles and 27,556 looms. Carrying the comparison back still further, viz., to June, 1880, we find that the number of mills was then 164, having between them 544,566 spin dles and 12,229 looms. It thus appears that the number of mills has nearly doubled during the last twelve years, while the number of spindles has multiplied considera bly more than three-fold. The consumption of cotton in American cotton mills has made a corresponding advance during the twelve years. In 1801-2 this con sumption amounted to 681,471 bales; in 1890-1, to 605,916- bales; in 1889-90 to 549,478 bales; in 1888-9, to 486,603 bales; in 1887-8, to 443,373 bales, and in 1879-80, to 183,748 bales. The extreme cheapness of cotton and the neces sity which American cotton plant ers experience of finding new out lets for their production are, of course, calculated to still further develop the growing cotton manu facturing industry of the Boutnern States. In June this year North Caro lina had no fewer than 112 cotton mills, South Carolina 47, Georgia 57, Alabama 20 and Tennessee 22. There were aisfl 12 mills in Vir ginia, but Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, i tween tnem. To”*~ estimate still further the importance attained by American cotton spinning, wo must compare the home consump tion of cotton in the United States with tlie aggregate production, The crop of 1891-2 amounted to 9,038,70 7 bales, of which 681,471 bales were worked uj>at home, or about 7 1-2 per cent, of the whole production. In 1879-30 the American cotton crop amounted to 5,757,397 bales, of which 188,748 baies were worked up at home, or a little more .nan 3 per cent, oi the wnoie production. It follows that the home consump tion has gained on the aggregate production during the last twelve years to the extent of about 4 per cent. The growth of cotton in the United States has made an ex traordinary advance during the last fifty years. In 1840-1 the crop amounted to 1,639,353 bales; in 1850-1, to 2,415,- 257 baies; in 1860-1, to 3,826,086 bales; in 1870-1, to 4,352,317 baies; in 1880-1, to 6,589,329 bales, and in 1890-1, to 8,855,518. It was thought by some observers that the abolition of slavery would be the ruin of the American 'cotton interest, but the figures which we have just cited show that predic tions of this kind have been alto gether falsified by actual experi ence. —“Engineering. ” Her Choice. “What do you like me in the best?” He questioned her chat ni;ht. As near the smoldering fire they sat Aud watched its flickering lig-ht, “I think I like you best,” she said. And tossed aside h r h tir, “In —let me think—Oh, yes, I know, That business suit you wear.” “And why,” he questioned tenderly. His eyes bent on her face, Where now and then a truant blush Would leave its tell-taie trace. “Because,” she answered with a sigh, Her eyes now turn i away, “When you have on your business suit You are so far away.” —Tom u- issoi Tiie Lnst Gran. “This, then, vliss " said the young m m as he started .or the door,, “is your Anal .decis ion b v “It i3.
