It is but another step among the many he has already taken toward beautifying and improving the city, and marks him as a gentleman of energy and .euterpues. —Mr. Richard Edwards, of Carrs villc, Y r a., is spending some time in this section, and was in the city Sat¬ urday last.

The Eastman Methodist and Bap¬ tist Sunday Schools will unite ou Fri¬ day next, and participate in a grand celebration. The program, as pub¬ lished week before last in the Jour¬ nal, will be carried out, and a good time is anticipated by all. Hymeneal. Married, near Eastman, at the resi¬ dence of the bride’s parents, on Sun¬ day last, 1st inst., Mr. J. W. Lee and Miss Mary Lou Dean. Rev. T. M. Christian officiating. All of Dedge county. Mr. Lee is one of our rising young inen, enjoying the friendship of all, while his bonny bride is a young lady of rare personal beauty, and endowed with many noble traits of both head and heart. To the young couple the Journal extends its hearty congratu¬ lations, trusting that as they tread the pathway of life, through its varied meandering*, they may be blessed with that happiness and prosperity which they so justly merit. The attendants on this happy occa¬ sion were: W. W. Thomas with Miss Lizzie Dean; J. W. Harrell with Miss Etta Dean; B. L. Harrell with Miss Alt ha O’Kelley. The ceremony over, tho bridal party repaired to the city, and enjoyed an elegant and bountiful supper at the residence of the groom's brother, Mr. YY. L. Lee, on Railroad avenue, where the happy pair are boarding for the present. Almost a C'onllastation. We ’earn through Mr. YY. W. Thom¬ as, of Lumber City, who was here on Sunday last, that our merchant friend, John II. Barrett, of that place, came near being burned out on Friday night last. The flames of a suspended elec¬ tric lain]) ran too high, setting the ceiling on fire, and but for the timely discovery a general conflagration might have ensued. The flames were immediately extinguished, and order again prevailed. Mr. Barrett carries the largest and best selected stock of goods (compris¬ ing almost everything to eat and wear) of any house in that entire section. Y\ T e know whereof wc speak, and parties trading at his store will find in him a clever, genial gentleman-—one disposed to “live and let live. Y\ r e are truly glad that his store and stock were not destroyed, and trust that the establish¬ ment may long flourish. YV lie re We l.iye.

Our lands arc naturally fertile; the water pure as that of pearl)’ fountains ; the bloom of health on the checks of all, and taking all these into consideration, it is a lit¬ tle strange to say the least, that our capitalists—the monied men of East¬ man and vicinity do not catch the in¬ centive —take time by the forelock and put out their hoarded wealth more liberally towards building up our town. As a single item in tills direc¬ tion, two new railroads propose to touch us in the near future if our people will only co-operate with the projectors in a substantial way.

Max¬ well, “the sweet singer of the west.” Mr. Christian, the pastor in charge of the church, has proved himself equal to thecmergcucy, and the good work is still unabated. IIis sermons at eacli service have been full of pure gospel truth, earnestly and feelingly delivered to the large congregations present. Never in the history of Eastman has the people been so fully aroused to the importance of the hour, or the (Julies which devolve upon them in the work for the Master. During these meetings it is gratifying to note the zeal and earnestness with which the good ladies of the town and vicinity have entered into the work, and the unity which has characteri¬ zed their action even from the start. All praise to our noble pastor, and may a rich reward await him. Mr. Maxwell has added greatly' to this revival. The songs which he so pathetically' rendered, at each service, had their effect upon the audience; they were listened to with a deep de¬ gree of interest, and have been as a balm to the awakened soul. Ilis good work hero i9 appreciated by all. The glorious revival still goes on, as we have before stated, and up to the time of going to press (Tuesday) noon) 15 have been added to the church and the work seems just begun. Among these are some of our old solid business men, who, before, have never took ttme to seek Christ. Oh, what a glorious work ! The prospect is bright for a rich harvest of souls* and God grant the good men in charge of the meeting may bo enabled to continue the work until this eiul is reached. Tire! Tire! ! These ever alarming accents fell in doleful tones upon tho cars of our cit¬ izens about noon on Friday last, caus¬ ing a surcease in business and a gen¬ eral ru di to the scene of conflagra l ion, The alarm came from (he direction of County Road, and it was soon dis¬ covered that the old store-house ot Mr. L. M. Peacock (now’ of Railroad uvc.) w’as on fire, and as a high wind was prevailing at the time, a clean sweep of that portion of the town was immi¬ nent—the houses all being wood and forming an almost solid block. The situation w’as at once taken in, and as we are without an engine, the bucket brigade, headed by marshal Skelton, responded promptly, and af¬ ter a few minutes of water throwing that would have done credit to a fire engine, the flames were extinguished. The building was damaged but very little by the fire,but it was almost to* tally unroofed by the firemen (?) dur¬ ing the moments of excitement. Robl. Beasley, col., occupied the house as a sleeping apartment, hut all of his effects were promptly removed to a place of safety at the first alarm. The fire was first discovered upon tlie roof, and is supposed to have origi¬ nated from a spark from some adja¬ cent flue or chimney. Loss light. Our town is surely blessed in the absence of burnings of much conse¬ quence, hut at the least alarm of the fiery fiend, the colored men turn out in force, ready to lend a helping hand, and llieir action on Friday last was no exception to the rule. They always work nobly, and this can be placed to ihcir credit. In this connection wc would state that some of our white young men put in some fine work. Sol Ilcrrman, Lon Skelton, Christian Eauton, arc hard to keep off of a house on lire. The latter is simply immense, and the man¬ ner in which he can make shingles fly, is a sight. There was another alarm of fire on the night of the dav above mentioned, but the flames were immediately ex¬ tinguished. and no damage was done. Arrested aud 41 ailed. Aaron McLeod, col., who our read¬ ers will remember as being charged with an attempted assault upou the wife of Mr. YVillis Mullis, of our coun¬ ty, about eighteen months ago, was arrested in Macon by policeman C. M. YYoods Tuesday night last, and a tele¬ gram was sent to our town to that effect. Upon receint of the informa¬ tion, Mr. II. A. Peacock went up to Macon and brought and lodged Mc¬ Leod in our jail, where he now rests, awaiting a hearing from the courts. It may he mete and proper to await a verdict of a jury properly chosen to investigate before advancing an opin¬ ion, but no serious harm can come out ot the assertion that many, in a posi¬ tion to know, outspokenly pronounce him guilty of the charge.

His competitors are getting the blues from the way he is selling Dry Goods, YY r hite Goods, Hamburg*, Laces, Clot hi ng and Shoes, lie has without a doubt the most elaborate and best selected stock that ever the public gazed at. If you are in need of anything in his line, he is the man who will make it pay you to deal with him. Jacobus will sell you goods as cheap, if not cheaper, than you can buy them either in Macon or Atlanta.

Amoskcag Appendix, The general manager is off on a business trip to Macon. Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Moore are on a visit to Mr. W. Paul, near Amoskcag. Mr. M. is here attending to some rc pairs on the dry kiln. We are glad to be able to state that little Eddie Bacon is much better—the fever from which he is suffering being of a mild type. Wc hope soon to see our little favorite around again. Friday last was quite an exciting day. During the high winds that pre¬ vailed, a slianty caught fire and burn¬ ed down. It was a building occupied by a number of men, and dubbed “The I piands,” by r the colored fraternity'. They lost everything they possessed, amounting to something over $400.— One poor fellow lost a fine new hat, which had been given to liim as a Christmas present by thogeneral man ager. Said lie, earnestly,: “I don’t care nuffiu for de clothes, but dat hat! Why', boss, I 'spected to keep dat hat as long as I Jibbed—’cause de ole man gib ’em to me. The big mill caught fire in several places, but prompt action and watch¬ fulness prevented any disaster from the flames. The cylinder-head of the steam feed at the big mill burst Monday morn¬ ing which necessitates shutting down until it can be lcpaired. In the mean¬ while the boys can go fishing, or courting, which to judge by the cou¬ ples meandering around in the moon¬ light alone, is the most popular thing. We may look out for more weddings soon if the meetings amlj moonlight continue. Oh, “there is nothing half so sweet in life as love’s young dream,’ and one can easily' stroll a mile or so with the adorable “she,” unconscious of time and space. “As softly falls loud the moonlight from above, Speaks that glance of friendship or of love ? It is not love, ah! friendship then is sweet.” and if this is thus, it will not be long crc those concerned can comprehend the “Oneness of the Two.” Lucile. Am to Our Town. About a year ago a business boom struck the State of Georgia, and many towns and cities organized manufac¬ turing associations, for the purpose of inducing manufacturers to locate their works in these respective places.— Atlanta went at (he work with a vim, aud the association organized there lias caused to be invested in that city, during the time above named, over one hundred thousand dollars in dif¬ ferent kinds of manufacturing estab¬ lishments. Macon and other cities are doing the same thing, and it is time that small towns like Eastman and other places with local advantages were inaugu¬ rating such enterprises. Strictly com¬ mercial points arc bound sooner or later to go under, where more enter¬ prising places will catch on to the boom and follow along with the grand procession of progress and prosperity. Go to any commercial town in Geor¬ gia, and you will find a number of men who are rich (in our southern acceptation of the word) and they have, in part, if not wholly, made their fortunes, in various ways, off of the earnings ot the wealth-producers of the country; and now, in the pos¬ session of this hoarded wealth, when a business, building boom strikes their towns, the)’ arc skeptical of any talk 011 the subject, and will not take hold of that which would help those who helped them in the pas.t. Such is the history of some towns, but docs not apply to ouis. Eastman is a young town, hut she has tier monied men, and they ought to display more energy in advancing tier interests. Our town is too small; she ought to have one or two more railroads; there ought to be more houses, more people, more shops, more everything. We ask the gentlemen of our town, who own property here, in all candor anil frankness, if they have no higher aspiration than to see their town never rise above the dignity of a railroad station? Sell your town lots cheaper, encourage people to come and settle down with us, and inaugurate manufacturing enterprises, Gentlc men, if wc ever have a larger, livelier town than at present, we have got to get up and go to work.

Han¬ son, of Macon, to speak here ou the lltli inst., upon the national subject of “Protective Tariff,” lias been postponed to Saturday, 14th inst. This postpone¬ ment was occasioned by the fact that the State military drill comes off in Macon on the lltli and 12th iusts., and Major IL. is a member of the citizens’ committee for this grand time, render¬ ing his presence there very essential. Saturday is always somewhat of a holiday with our people, and wc be¬ speak for Maj.

The New York Sun has boon dis cussing the country editor and his trials and tribulations. It talks like it had ••been there,” and its words seem to proceed from the storehouse of experience. It says; “ If county newspaper proprietors were to publish tiie names of the sub scribcrs who take, read and enioy and are gratified by, yet refuse to pay for their home paper, the reputation of most communities for moral honesty would depreciate twenty per cent.— An editor’s labors arc seldom esteem cd or compensated. A lawyer will give you five minutes’ advice on one topic and charge von five dollars for it. A 11 editor will give you advice on a hundred topics and charge you five cents a copy for his paper. And very often five cents given to an would save five dollars given to a lawyer. In fact no other men are so universally robbed and swindled out of their labor and tal as the county newspaper editor.” 'i'-ic Folored HI. E. Uliui'ch. The colored M. E.
