The Circnt Feeder.
The Herald says : “ The Elberton Air
Line is a great feeder to Toccoa.” Yes;
but the trouble is the food won't stay on
-^Toccoa's stomach long enough to do any
good—it either passes out at the lower end
to Charlotte, or is thrown up to Atlanta
from the upper end. All the grease left
by it in Toccoa wouldn't grease the tip end
of a mosquito's mustache.
Qodtjr'* Lady'a Book.
We have received the January number
of this popular magazine, and it is a per
fect gem. It is full of excellent reading
matter, and our wife says its diagram pat

mother. Notwithstanding the reduction
from $3 to $2 a year, the publishers intend
making the twelve issues for 1879 among
the best they have ever printed. We will
send our paper and the above magazine to
any cash subscriber forgone year for $3.00.

Mr. Thomas McCurry. who lives near
Johnson's Mill, had his house burned to
the ground on the 12th inst. Nothing was
saved, except a bed that was on the fence
sunning. It occurred while the family was
absent. It was evidently the work of an
incendiary, and suspicion at once attached
to two colored youths, Isaiah Burriss and
Asa Sadler, aged respectively 19 and 20.
who were arrested and lodged in jail Fri
day night. Asa Sadler has confessed that
Isaiah Burriss robbed the house of some
articles and then set it on fire, but denies
any complicity in the crime. We hope
they will be made to suffer the extremest
penally of the law. This is a terrible blow
to Mr. McCurry. now when the universal
cry of hard times is heard in the land.

Bowersville Items.
BY “ YOU KNOW WHO.”
Last week was quite a busy time for our
young city; lots sold fast and trade was
brisk, and more men here seeking a good
business location.
There has never been a single drummer
who stopped over here but boasted of the
beauty and modesty of the Bowersville
ladies.
The dying requiem of 1878 will hardly
have passed away before the music of the
hammer, saw. and jackplanc will be heard
on the grand advancement of Bowersville.
In less than three months she will have
three times as many depots as any station
on the road. Good, quiet and shi wd bus
iness men have already begun to marshal
their legions of greenbacks in this direc
tion.
Bowersville will cut off all that trade
that used to go to Anderson, S. C. You
see this road is run in conjunction with
the A. & C., and merchants here can get
such a soft thing in the way of freights that
they are tearing the hind sights off Toccoa
and Anderson. There is not a day but
what some is here wanting to rent a busi
ness house-—and, by-lhc-way, this commu
nity enjoys one of the very best kinds of
reputations for being ready to square up
their notes in the fall. If you want to be
too late to get in here, wait and see which
wav the cat will jump in January.
We are indebted to Judge Jno. M. Bow
ers and Major M. Steinheimer for special
favors. May their shadows never grow
less. Since your journal has been repre
sented in Bowersville, we have been re
ceiving favors that legitimately belong to
the editors. An anonymous epistle, ex
pressing a regret that she had never met
iis was duly received by us. ami for the
kind expressions we tender thanks, but you
must alwnjs give your name as an evi
dence of your purity of motives.
Be was from North Carolina, and had
been peddling on apples and " sperets.”
He approached us in a modest way. mid ex
pressed a wish to see us privately. He
drew from bis pocket a letter (the seal bad
never been broken), and said that he bad
heard we were a “high larnt Mian,” and
ho wanted us to read his letter for him.
We broke the seal, and the import of the
letter was, that his wife and child, far
away in the mountains of N. C., were
doing well. This letter was from his
mother-in-law. But the letter had a post
script. ami the import of the p. s. was
that his wife and two children were doing
well. When we read the first part of the
letter his joy was great: hut when he
heard that God had blessed him with two
healthy children on the same day, his joy
was unbounded. He said his prayers of
ten long weary years had been answered,
and big drops of tears Hooded the hardy
tar heel’s face, and lie pulled out a hollow
glass vessel, labled “For Pike's Peak.”
and beseechcd us to indulge with him. He
expressed his sincere thanks for our kind
ness. and inquired for the nearest rout to
North Carolina.

The town of Royston still continues to
swell its number of inhabitants. George
F. Steilles lias moved here and is selling
dry goods cheap. George is a tlrst-rate
fellow. When you come over give bis
clerk a call. Hilly Skinner will wait on
you. As Mr. Christian lias bis store com
pleted and has made a yard stick, we sup
pose he is ready to wait on the people. Rev.
A. S. Turner has bought him a house and
lot, and will probably move in a short
time. E. F. Bond has moved into his new
house on Franklin street. A. C. Dooly is
improving his dwelling lot on the east side
of the railroad. W. 'l'. 0. Cook has store
house nearly ready for business. P. H.
Bowers’ guano house is ready for covering.
Bowers is a live merchant. Prof. .1. T.
Mabry is building a very nice dwelling.
There is talk of his teaching a singing
school here. We learn that Dr. Colquitt,
of Oglethorpe, has rented a house ana lot
and will move to Royston about the first of
next year. VVe suppose the town will be
well supplied with the healing art. On the
7th inst.. there were 210 bales of cotton
shipped from Elberton at one lime, on the
9th. 225 bales. On the 12th. 106 bales
were shipped from Royston. Other towns
ship in proportion. What say ye to Col.
Dickinson's pet!* Col. Royston has a good
stock of goods. When you come over, let
him know what you wish for. There is a
good opening for a shoe shop and a school
at this place. As the counties of Franklin
and Hart are so near this town, we cannot
forbear noticing some of their movements.
We think Judge Stephenson, your present
Ordinary lias a pretty good knowledge of
professional men. VVe notice he has had
the pleasure of a short conversant! with
a young barrister, who went awTy much
pleased, next an editor of a neighboring
journal, next an eminent divine of a neigh
boring circuit, and then a disciple of /Kscu
lapius. Franklin and Hart counties are
on sociable terms, and for the last few
months have been exchanging some of their
jewels, but the Franklin boys have got the
ascendency. They will not have it a great
while, if we are not mistaken. Chimneys
going up. James Bowers is a (irst-class
briek and rock mason and understands
bceology. A young man's sweetheart
got milled at him. but he appeased her an

Brief biographies of all noted authors,
British or American, who have written in
the English language, from earliest times
to the present, with specimens from their
writings, the whole comprised in eight
handy volumes of over 3.000 pages, mak
ing a work not only tl oroughly entertain
ing and useful to all intelligent readers,
but well nigh indispensable to people of
culture. The first edition of this work
was published by Chambers. of
Edinburg, in 1843. and in various editions
since that time it has lind a very wide sale,
and established a reputation that makes
present commendation of its merits super
fluous.
The great attractions of the present
newly-revised edition is its convenient form,
similar to that of the famous ** Tauch
nilz ” ami *• Little Classics” publications;
its clear, hold type, excellent paper and its
low price, which is certainly extraordinary.
The entire work is furnished, free of ex
press or mail charges. for 82.00 in paper,
83.00 in cloth, or 84.60 in half morocco.
It is published by the American Book
Exchange, New York, in connection with
their Book Exchange Weekly, and the
principal reasons given for its low price
arc. that it is intended to serve ns a means
of making their paper more widely known,
they sell only to purchasers direct, instead
of giving the u-.ua! fifty or sixty per cent,
discount to dealers or agents to sell for
them ; and, further, that they offer to early
subscribers at an extra reduction, which
tardy purchasers will have to pay an extra
profit to compensate.
Volume one will he issued before the hol
idays, in time for those who desire to give
it appropriate use at that time, and the re
maining volumes will appear, one or two
each month thereafter, as rapidly as it can j
be issued from the press. Specimen pages j
will be sent to any one. at once, on request i
by postal card, addressed to the Ameri
can Book Exchange, 55 Beekman street,
New York.

lie “ Couldn't see itor in other words,
he was satisfied with " Hai.k’s Honey of

Thi* Important organ weigh* but about three
pounds, and all the blood in a living person (about
three gallons) pauses through it at least once every
half hour, to have the bile and other impurities
t strained or filtered from it. Bile is the natural
. purgative of the bowels, and if the I.iver becomes
I torpid it is not separated from the blood, but car
, ried through the veins to all parts of the system,
| and in trying to escape through the pores of the
■ skin, causes it to turn yellow or a dirty brown
‘ color. The stomach becomes diseased, and Dys-
I pepsla, Indigestion, Constipation, Headache, Bill
lousness, Jaundice, Chills, Malarial Fevers, Piles,
Sick and Sour Stomach, and general debility fol
low. Mer kill's Hbfatinr, the great vegetable
| discovery for torpidity, cause* the Liver to throw
■ off from one to two ounces of bile each time the
I blood passes through it, as long as there is an ex
-11 cess of bile; and the effect of even a few doses
upon yellow complexion or a brown dirty looking
skin, wili astonish all who try it—they being the
first symptoms to disappear. The cure of all bili
ous diseases and Liver complaint is made certain
I by taking Hepatine in accordance with directions,

ATLANTA DAILY COXSTITITIOX.
We. have few promises to make for Till? COKSTITP*
tion for 1879. The paper speaks for itself, ami upon
that ground the managersolfer it to the public as the
beat, the brightest, the newsiest and the most com
plete dally journal published in the south. This is
the verdict of our renders, and the verdict of the
most critical of our exchanges, some of whose opin
ions we take pleasure in presenting below.
The managers w ill he pardoned for briefly alluding
to some of the features which have given TllK Con*
biit ims prominence among southern papers.
I. It prints all the news, both by mail and tele
graph.
11. Its telegraphic service is fuller than that of
any other Georgia paper—its special dispatches
placing It it|niii a footing, so fnr as ihe news is con
ceriietf, with the metropolitan journals.
111. Its compilation of the news by mail is tho
freshest of the best, comprising everything of inter
est in the current newspaper literature of the day.
IV. Its editorial department Is full, bright and
vivacious, and its paragraphs and opinions arc more
widely quoted tliati those of any southern journal.
It dls. usses all questions of public interest, and
touches upon all current themes.
V. •• Bill Arp," the most genial of humorists will
continue to contribute to its columns. "Old SI ” ami
” Cmle Benins” will work in their Mpcciul lields and
w ill furnish fun lsdli in prose and verse.
VI. It is a complete m wh. family and agricultural
journal, it is edited with the greatest care, and its
columns contain everything of interest in the domain
of po itic 4, literature amt science.
\ il. in addition to these, full report* of tho sit
pit tne cOUI t, : 11 1 of the proceeding* of the general
assembly, will be published, and no pains will bo
spared to keep tho paper up to its present standard.
