Wo have given considerable s|»ee withiu the past few weeks to notices of enterprise* In and around our town, but have, as yet, neglected lo mention tlie fire-proof Wareitoitsc of John D. Stokes, on Railroad Avenue. In 1884 this Immense building, adapted especially for the storage of ( Oiton, was * reeled, and the following j year was rented, or leased, by Mr. J. D. Stokes, the present efficient mana ; g**r. At that time our town received / a few hundred hales of cotton j aiinuaiiy, from the simple reason that there w as no place here tor storage , and from the more ini|>ortant fact that j ougldy no one had advertised ever talked up ai.d tlior Eastman as a cotton market, as Mr. Stokes has done since hi* advent in the business. He is ccr lainlj* tiie right man to manage the i cotton traffic of our section, is Ins suc j cess m that line shows. Season after season our town has increased in in | tercst rs a cotton the market, ami till* sca¬ j s01 >* »1» ta present writing, somc ; thing ovei*2,500 bales have been rceeiv ed at this warehouse alone, and the sta piecontiuucs to roll in daily. Wc would , state in this connection tiiat Mr. Stoke* is a sworn weigher with tiie best of i scales, and our planters can rest as sured of receiving nothing blit fair, honest dealing at his ban D, Shortly after removing toourtown, , yi «* , formed partnership with a Mr. James Arthur, who is well and favorably known to our people, and they at once erected the extensive i steam grist mill and ginnery oil Third ! Avenue. This is another step ofenter i pi l-c ami energy on tlie part of Mr. S. ; that should receive the commendation of our citizens generally, and we are glad to state that such has been the j e a-e. Since the completion of this cn terorisc, it lias received continually and is yet receiving a most flattering ^patronage, l’olite attention and satis , faction in cvcrv transaction Is gunran feed to all customers, and this is one 5 grand secret of Messrs.

We cheer¬ fully commend (Don to (he patronage our planters, and wish w*c had a f cW more siuh citizens as they, 'IVlfuir Court. ,\s usual wc were in attendance on the regular term of Telfair superior court, in se-sion last week, Judge Ivibbcc presiding; but, as usual a ike, because both of having more business without than w ithin the walls of jus tice, and confident that inatterS witli in were in sale keeping, wc learned but little as to the court proceedings other than that business was being dc-patelied to the satisfaction of all concerned. Telfair is keeping even pace with her sister counties in the march of pros* pol ity. The court house, now nearing mplction under the* skilled super¬ vision ot architect Ren wick, will be one of the handsomest and most sub -tantial structures of the kind m wire grass Georgia The tax payers will hav< no tears of regret to sited be- 1 cans,-* of having .secured Mr. Renwiek's services.

A communication appeared in your paper a few weeks ago urging the name of Col. Williams lor legislative honors. Of course we have nothing to do with Telfair politics, hut tve do emphatically saj that our friend \\ i one of the most deserving men of his county. By the way. this reminds ii» of a historical event width very few know of. At the battle of Cold Har¬ bor the ranks of the Confederates were broken and the entire army was de moralized. The color-hearer threw down his flag and joined llie retreat Col. Williams, by nature a true soldi* r, but then a private, gallantly grasped the deserted colors, and, amidst shot and •licit, bore them on to victory. As a result he was promoted to the rank of first Lieutenant. As a citizen his character is unblemished ; as a legis¬ lator ho would he an honor to his county. Col. Williams Is Grand Mas¬ ter of Temperance Lodge, and will attend the Grand Lodge which meets in Macon this week. While we are thinking of Jeff llavis, let honor he to whom honor is due. You ought to hear the hoys talk of their Atlanta tilp Well, just read the Telegraph, and our sentiment will he voiced. Hurrah for Jeff Davis! Mr. If. Brown lias been in south Georgia and Florida lor several weeks selling stock, at which lie has made a grand success.

EllITOn JoCItNAI. As I seldom see anything from Hits nection, I thought l would drop von a few lines to let your numerous readers know that we are not asleep m this section ot the county. Captain “lied Eye” passes through occasionally and commits his dark deed* of crime and shame Wc desire in this connection to remind the voters | of the county to be on their guard , ugaiu.-t the great tiestroyor (liquor) at i least for an unknown season. j j I am aware that tiicre is a prejudice I against any man engaged in the manu¬ facture of alcoholic beverages. I believe Hut from t'.vj time it issues from tlie . . , poisonous worm of the distillery until il empties into the hell of death, dis-I honor and crime, that it demoralizes | every one that touches it, from its source to its ending. All wc have to do, fellow-citizens, it to think of the wreck son either hunk of the stream of Death ; the suicides, the insanity, tho poverty, the iguo ranee; the destitution of the little children crying with starvation, and weeping wives asking for bread alone; of faleutcil intellect* who have been wrecked, and it all produced by this devilich <lccottion. And when you tliinlc of tho jails (especially election time) the alms houses and asylums, tlie prison yards and *caf fohls, I *lo not wonder Hint every thoughtful man is prejudiced against this poisonous si lift, so-called alcohol. Intemperancc cuts down * youths in their ... vigor, manhood ... its strength, in age in its wickedness; it breaks ihe father* , , , licart. . bereaves the darling mother, extingushes natural afi'eotion, ert“cs conjugal love, blights parent a 1 luqie, and brings down mourning age in sorrow toiiie grave. It produces sickness, not health, deatli not life; it makes wive*, widows, eliildreu or¬ phan', fallier* fiends paupers and beg¬ gars; it degrades ihc citizen, debases tlie legislator, dislionors statemen, dis mbunts tlie patriots, and bribes many nlgro votes. It brings shame not liou oii; terror not safety ; despair not hap¬ piness. It poisons fidelity, kills peace, ruins moral*, blights confidence, slays reputations, and wipes out national h>nor; it cheats children out of an ed¬ ucation, and teaches them to like a full battle of red eye, and an empty sack of corn. It curses tlie world and laughs at its ruin; it does a)) ot this, and more loo; it murders the 8**ul. it Is the son of violation, the father of crimes, the mother of abomination, the devil's be-t friend and God's worst enemy.
