Notwithstanding the fact that cotton only brought 5 cents a pound last year, we see lot’s of guano taking a homeward direction from the warehouses of Jack son. The grand jury drawn for this tei m of court are a representative set of gentle men, and the county’s interests will be most ably looked aftei by that honorable body. Judge Hardeman presided over court on Monday of this week, aud many com plimeuts were passed upon the able manner in which he dispatched the bus iness before him. Colonel Beck, a rising young lawyer of Griffin, is in attendance upon Butts superior court this week. Mr. Beck bids fair to become one of the leading lights of his fraternity. Judge Griggs is a sympathetic as well as firm aud courageous judge. His talks to several young criminals before pass ing sentence made a profound impres sion on those present. Mother —I gave you ten cents to be good yesterday, and today you are just trying to how bad you can be. Willie—Yes, hut I am just trying to show you today that, you got the worth ofyourmouey yest<rday. Our readers seem to enjoy Tom aud Jerry very much.

The Morris u H.-use dramatic dub is being organized. Johnson makes an excellent villain, aud with such a coterie of artists as McDonald, Pinckney and Smith, the in.nutes show that he is ably supported by three other villains. Mr. R. L.

Harris, Thursday. Mr. Har ris is the patriarch of Jenkiusburg, and whenever anyone gets sick in his com munity he appoints himself a committee of one to see that they come through all right. Mr. F. S. Etheridge, the clever and jovial president of the Jackson Bunking Cos., complimented the grand jury one day this week with an oyster dinner. The jury were profuse in their thanks for his kindness, as it was an enjoyable event. The attorneys in attendance upon court this week in addition to our local bar, are: T. W. Thurman, Judge Boyn ton, W. H. Beck, of Griffin; J. W. Pres ton, John R. L. Smith, A. W. Lane, of Macon; E. J. Regan, W. T. Dickson, of McDonough. Mr. R. N.

S. Brown, who is now in New York laying in an immense line of dry goods, etc., for this live establishment. In the office of the Dempsey House is an heirloom which perhaps is the oldest of its kind in this county. It is an old pair of fire tongs, which were made in 1822 by an old colored blacksmith, in the first blacksmith shop built in Butts county. The tongs have been in Mr. Jester's family ever since they left the anvil, and today are as good as mw. President Collier, of the Cotton States and International Exposition has sent to the mayor and council of Philadelphia a letter cordially invi ting them to take part in the Exposi tion. Similar letters are to be sent to all the great cities. Chicago day has already been fixed, and it is hoped to have all the great cities similarly rep resented. The services last Sabbath at the Bap tist church were uuusually interesting. Dr. Gardner’s sermon was one of his best—clear, forceful, and reflecting the deep piety and perfect consecration of this Godly man. After the sermon Miss M.cKie, the gified director of music in Jackson lustitute, sang “Rock of Ages.” As her clear, sweet toues fell upon the listening ear, the silence of wrapt atten tion ptrvaded the congregation. The earnest supplication, “Let me hide myself in thee,” seemed to strike respon sive chords, and a holy calm like that born of a feeling of conscious security in the shadow of the “rock,” fell upon i the hearts of all like a benediction. fffffffff THE NEW YORK' STORE We saw a farmer come into town on Monday and sell four hams of his own raising to a hotel keeper. Now, we didn’t watch him, but wish we had, as we are confident he plodded light off and purchased a bushel of corn, a gallon of syrup, and a side of meat with the money derived from the sale. The three white tramps who have been in jail here so long, were represented by Cols. A. W. Lane of Macon, W. H. Beck of Griffin, and J. D. Watkinsof Jackson. They were advised to plead guilty to larceny from' the house and were allowed to do so, which saved them several years in the penitentiary. We learn the boys will work the roads in Spaulding county. Judge Hardeman, of Macon, opemd court for Judge Beck Monday morning. His charge to the grand jury was a fine piece of reason beautifully aud corectly expressed. It was not one of the old stereotyped charges, but fresh and origi nal. Among other things he said if he was to judge Butts county from the ap pearance of its court house, he would think it was a small potato with very few in a hill. If the grand jury is as dili gent as he adyised them to be, we will have some true bills towards the last of the week. See the Globe Store’s new ad in this issue. Their Mr. Yopp is now in New York laying in oue of the handsomest stocks of goods that will reach Jackson this season. During his stay north he will procure the services of Miss N. Lee Carter, who now occupies the position of milliner for one of the largest houses in New York. The Globe Store will spare no pains in securing the best goods on the market. Miss Carter will select the millinery for the store before she leaves New York, aud our ladies may surely expect something in the na ture of a surprise when their immense stock is opened up. The students of Jackson Institute have organized a brass band to be known as the Jadkson Institute Band. They have asked the citizens to help them buy the instruments. This request has been responded to with liberal con tributions. They will also ask the town couucil to help them, and when the council understands the conditions upon which the band Is organized, they will certainly not hesitate to give what as sistance they can. The band will be uuder the supervision of the authorities of the Institute. Jackson Institute knows nothing but to succeed in what ever it undertakes, and it is needless to say that this enterprise will be no excep tion in its record. Give the boys all the help and encouragement you can. ffffff YOU SHOULD KEEP POSTED. WATCH THIS SPACE FROM NOW ON!

And keep posted, IVe are going to keep you well informed of the arrival of our Spiing StocK. Jackson liad a dummy engine on her streets one day this week. It was a traction engine, howeyev, and didn’t carry passengers. Jim Crawford and Lawyer Curry went down to Cork on Monday to levy on the machine, and as Frank Z. is an engineer, he was elected to that position on the first ballot, while Jim acted as conductor. Crawford dried all the wells in Flovilla trying to get water enough to fill the “biler,” and just as Frank Z. got up enough steam to do devilment with, the “piston board” busted, and Jim and Frank had a foot race to see which could outrun the nut that flew out of its resting place in the side of the engine boiler. They were two days getting the machine three quarters of a mile, and if a man hadn’t come along who knew how to run the engine, the people down near Indian Spring say it would haye been down near Macon by this time, as the last they saw of it Crawford was piling in wood and Curry was laying tree trunks under the wheels trying to stop it, for the locomo tive was going backward at the rate of four miles an hour. It was sold at pub lic sale on Tuesday and bought by the Russell Manufacturing Cos. for $345. They were the original owners of the machine before it was sold to W. P, Woods and O. B. Knowles.
