Mr. James Bohannon, received on
Friday last, (All Fools Day.) tho
fossilif 11 rolls remains of wliatis known
as a ‘‘bull frog.” Jimmie is not aware
of the, donor, but appreciates the
“Api*fl Fool.”
STI 10 frog is almost in a state of petri¬
faction, and is a curiosity worthy of a
place in any museum. The little jum¬
per is perfect in every respect, sits in
a leaping position, but his closed eyes
and month, shows that lie was un¬
earthed at a groat depth.
Denial Yoticc.
We are requested by Dr. W. L.

forget the date.
Tlic Hold Del.ietcla.
The new addition of four commo¬
dious rooms, suitable for the use of
families, to this popular hotel of our
town, is about completed, and will
add much to the appearance and com¬
fort of tho same. In this connection
wc would state that under tho pres¬
ent efficient management ot Mrs. W\
N. Lietch and Mr. W. W. Pendle¬
ton as clerk the house is rapidly
growing in popular favor. There
may be more efficient, courteous gen
tlcmeu than Mr. Pendleton in the ca
pacify of hotel clerks, but wc have
yet to meet them, and the Journal
herein commends him and the house
to the traveling public.

Dentil of tin Infunt.
Wc regret to chronicle tho death of
little Bessie, aged about two years,
infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. B.
WiggS which occurred at Tompkins,
Ga., on thc22d ot last month.
Mr. and Mrs. Wiggs arc former
i/.ens of our town, and their relatives
and friends here would waft them a
sigh of condolence in their hour of af¬
fliction—assuring tho fond parents that
“all is well,” and that the substance,
now lost to ifs,isbut a beacon light to
illumine their way to the realms im¬
mortal, where peace and joy ever
await those who keep his commands.
AmoxIuuigN Fire Fugiiir.
Wc stated last week that the en
terprising proprietors of the Amos
Ueag Lumber Works, of this place,
were negotiating with the Atlanta
fl re department as to the purchase of
a s t C am fire engine. •
qq ic trade has been consummated,
an( i th e elegant engine, Silsby No. 2,
arrivcd licrc C n Friday last. The
niachmc ....... is m fine trim . . (as the ire
( boys say; and the organization o a
| competent fire company is thc next
proper caper among thc boysot the
mill. If we are in order, we would
suggest tho naino of our friend Wear
; cr, as captain. His commanding ap*
j oearauce and stentorian tones com
men d him, and if thc Doctor and ge
mal “Jake” will second us, Mr. W. is
elected. Ung may thc Amoskeag
Lumber Works prosper.
For a good hand-made gents shoe,
call on John II. Barrett,
Lumber City, Ga.
The Rlfht Kind of Backet.
Mr. Editor: While Mr. Gentry’s
remarks at the railroad meeting
caused a good deal of morriment, they
were, at least a shot in ther ight direc¬
tion.
You lurty have all the rftilroads in
the State center here, but if we have
nothing else they would not help the
place one particle.
Wc arc right in the heart of the
lumber belt of Georgia, where alt
kinds of lumber may be obtained at a
reasonable price, amt it some enter¬
prising person would take hold of it.
right here is the best place in Georgia
for a sash, door and blind factory. Wc
have a planing mill and variety works
here which furnishes a very large sec¬
tion with good moulding, brackets,
etc., yet wc all have to send some¬
where else for all our sash, doors and
blinds. There was used right here
in Eastman, during the past winter,
articles of thi9 kind to the value of
several thousand dollars, whilst
throughout the country, in the adja¬
cent territory to Eastman, there was
a great deal more used.
Now, if we could manufacture all
this right here at home, it would not
only keep all the money here, but it
would also give employment to a good
many bands, and thus increase our
population, which would, of course,
help our merchants and help to pay
our taxes and improve the town.
And again, a good furniture manu¬
factory here would pay better
an in any place in the South. Lum¬
ber is cheap, and fuel is cheap, and if
wo get the new railroad here, there
is no reason why wo should not sup¬
ply Hawkinsville, Dublin, Mt. Ver¬
non, and all points on both the roads,
with all the furniture they might
want; and if in the right hands could
also supply the larger cities, who now
depend upon getting all these tilings
from the North and West.
While a brick yard might not prove
to be a paying investment here,owing
to the fact that we have no suitablo
clay convenient for making them.
there are a good many other things
that would prove profitable.
A wool-canling factory would pay
a good profit on Ihe investment, and
a cotton factory rightly managed
would also prove a good investment—
not to say anything about a great
many other small enterprises.
In Perry, Ga., some time ago, a few
persons, as a matter of experiment, bc
» an to manufacture curry-combs. A
r? ,)(> ^ many laughed at the idea of such
| a thing, but to-day they are selling all
; they can make, and expect in the
future to not only add to the curry
comb manufactory, but to embrace in
it a great many other novelties ; and
now while I would not say a word
against building as many railroads as
\ | we can get to come here, yet I think
j ' vl,al "C need most is manufactories,
,, " ,U "T ral ^'^ucnee-just lh ° as C ° mC sure - as a
I cfiect ( will always follow a cause, and
j every one knows there is no effect
without a cause.
I may say more on this subject in
1 the future, but what I want is for our
j monied id if men they to do think not over wish this thing,
a, to engags
themselves lit them cucourmre m hur»
