A Visit to Elberton.
Last Wednesday wc visited the growing
city of Elberton. We were gratified to
note the thrifty condition of the farms on
the road. The wheat was looking very
fine, and the cotton coming up rapidly and
every Held seemed to have fine stands.
One thing impressed us unfavorably, and
that was the small area of corn planted.
However, ns we are no farmer, we will not
lecture them on their duties, as we pre
sume thev Know their own business; hut
will say that, if the seasons are favorable,
the biggest crop of cotton will he made this
year in the history of the country, which
will make prices correspondingly low.
doing nnd coming, we slopped at Hon.
John C. McC'urrv’s to see Mr. Elbert Mc-
Curry. who is quite sick, but lively hopes
are entertained of his recovery. Here we
saw the now famous quilt. *• McOurry's
Dream." which is very ingenious.
Elberton was a little dull, hut consider
able trade going on. considerii g the time
of the year. We met some Hart county
people there, and some from Oglethorpe
and Wilkes. The merchants are cheerful
and anticipate a large trade in the fall, all
of which they will certainly realize. \N e
noticed several new buildings lately com
pleted and in process of construction. The
swift building is by far the most handsome
one in the town, and is a credit to the pro
prietors and the pride of the city. The
Swift boys are swift by nature ns well as
by name'. The Swifts'. Dr. Carr, druggist,
and others, occupy rooms in this building
In the former, we met Mr. E. A. Cason,
so well and favorably known in this sec
tion.
Gairdner A Arnold and J. 11. A T. A.
Jones are drawing a large trade from Hart.
They are liberal men—the sort to deal
with.
A. G. Ilitchins. ot Atlanta, has leased
the James' building, and is opening a tre
mendous stock of goods, comprising every
thing usually kept in a first-class store,
lie assured us that he would have the larg
est stock ever brought to Elberton and that
he would sell as cheap as Athens. Atlanta
or anywhere in the South, fie is a relia
ble. thoroughgoing business man. with an
experience of over twenty years as a mer
chant. He lias in connection with his
extensive establishment a millinery de
partment. where the ladies will find all
the latest styles of hats, trimmings. Ac.,
in French and American goods; nothing
but the best articles used, and in as good
style and as cheap as in New York. Do
not fail to visit Ilitchins’ Atlanta store
when you go to Elberton.
While speaking of improvements, wc
must say that Dr. Edmunds is the most
skillful sapper and miner wc ever saw. lie
took us down in the big cave underneath
the Globe Hotel, and showed us his large
nnd commodious dining room, his wine
cellar, his dry well, hi* sample room, his
bake oven, his room for keeping potatoes.
Ids flower conservatory, closets, and in fact
we can’t tell how much he did show us
down in a coal mine." but everything is
arranged in style, and his will be. undoubt
edly the most convenient hotel in upper
Georgia.
Little Jim Sanders took us in to see his
S30() marble-top, mahogany counter, and
—hut—as wc never drink anything, as we
lean over the counter and sip lemonade we
are constrained to say that we—that is if
we ever did such a thing—would rather
get " mixed " in Jim Sanders’ Saloon than
any in the State. Without doubt it is the
finest in Northeast Georgia.
Klbertnn ha-; the neatest barher shop in
the up-eonntrv. engineered by Bob Brown,
lately of Hartwell.
We went up in the band room to hear
the band play, and were introduced to the
members by the wit of the town in the
following unique style : •* Gentlemen, this
is Mr. McG.. of The Hartwell Sun ;
and 1 think it is a courtesy due him to al
low him to blow one of these horns.” As
they had Butts to the largest we unani
mously declined the honor. The hand
still lias Warms and i- progressing rapidly.
The Gazette is patronized liberally by
the merchants, and of course we found
McCarty and Harper bright and glad. We
shall always remember their courtesy and
rejoice in their prosperity.
All Elbert on is agog with enterprises—
such as telegraph wire, fair association,
hook-and-ladder company, etc., etc.
We noticed fine clover patches in Elher
ton—equal to Virginia. Hartwell might
profit by this.
We left it to the merchants to decide
whether Hart county trade was worth ad
vertising for. Col. T. J. Bowman, than
whom no more far-seeing man lives in El
berton. stated to us that it was certainly
to the interest of Elbertoa merchants to
advertise in this county. We think so.
The schools in Elberton are flourishing,
which i a good sign.
In Convention.
The semi-annual convention of the Hart
County Singing Society convened with the
Baptist Church at this place on Saturday
last. The exercises lasted two days, ad
journing on Sunday afternoon. A goodly
number were in attendance on Saturday
and proceedings were conducted in an ex
cellent manner. On Sunday the church
was filled to overflowing. During the
morning hours singing was conducted by
Protk. Haves, of Franklin County, and
McLees, of South Carolina. At eleven
o'clock. Rev. 11. M. Barton, preached an
impressive sermon. In the afternoon Prof.
Isharn Dyar conducted the exercises which
were concluded with a few pieces led by
Prof. W. V. Vickery, president of the
Society, and prayer by Rev. Barton. We
never saw a more orderly and better be
haved audience than were assembled to
gether on Sunday, it was truly a harmoni
ous body. This Society has done a great
deal to advance the cause of music in this
county, and it is really surprising to ob
serve how expert: t singing are even the
small children. Like young birds learning
to fly. just as soon as they get out of the
cradle they are taught to sing, and hence
we have a great many good singers in this
county. Good singing adds a great deal to
Sabbath Schools and Church worship, and
ought to be encouraged. Quite a large
number were in attendance from surround
ing counties and Carolina.
The next annual meeting of the Society
will be held at Slmal Creek Church Friday
before Ist Saturday in November next.
Frost.
On last Friday and Saturday we had
white frost in this county. Fortunately
but little cotton had crawled out of the
ground. Thomas Sanders, the energetic,
go-ahead superintendent of the poorhouse
fartp. had about a stand up, which was
killed. E. B. Benson & Cos. have sold
a right smart chance of cotton, to be de
livered in December, and Old B. says he
'spects they will have to send to Egypt to
f;et it if this weather continues much
onger,

Wo were very forcibly struck by a sen

Creek correspondent, viz : that “plowing

And again, those who farm at this tunc of
the year are so busy that they know not
what is going on in the country.
The crops are still in a very promising
condition. Watermelons planted, straw
berries ripe. Ac. Wc stated id our last
that the fruit was all killed by the recent
frosts, but your devil by changing fruit in
to first made it refer to the cotton, which
was not planted at that time. So you see
we were brought to taw on the charge ol
prevarication.
We have been fishing again to no pur
pose. It seems that there are scarcely any
fish in the river, only four or five shad
have been caught this season for a distance
of ten mile above here. We were con
versing last week with one of our most
intelligent citizens, and he suggests that we
get up a petition and present to our repre
sentative to lay before the Legislature, re
questing an appropriation to stock the Sa
vannah with fish—shad more especially.
Such an appropriation would not exceed
one thousand dollars. Then by prohibit
ing fishing with nets and traps for two or
three years, and re-stocking every ten
years, wc would have fish continually.
This would be of great importance to botli
States. South Carolina has already begun
fish culture w ithin the interior, and it is
proving a success. In fact. Georgia is far
behind the States of the Union of equal
wealth and resources in this respect. Let
her then appoint a Fish Commissioner, say
in the person of our present Agricultural
Commissioner, and extend this fish culture,
not only to the Savani ah. but to her other
largi streams. Should this he effected, the
river made navigable for steamers, the
Hartwell Railroad completed and the “ no
fence” law passed, our county would truly
be the garden spot. Max.
Why Submit to the Discomfort and
humiliation entailed by a local disease of
the skin, when GLENN'S SULPHUR Soap
will rid yon of it with certainty and de
spatch; 1 It is a remedy which never fails
to relieve cutaneous disease, and. as a
means of banishing defects of the complex
ion, it is equally reliable. The benefits
arising from the use of Sulphur Baths, in
cases of skin disease, and of rheumatism
and gout, are well known, but the cost is
too heavy to he incurred by many persons
who would otherwise take advantage of
them. Glenn s Sulphur Soap answers
the same purpose, and is both nnexpensive
and convenient. No one need stir abroad
in search of a sulphur hath who has this
admirable means of providing one in doors.
It is incomparably ttie best deodorizer and
disinfectant of clothing and bed linen in
use. and prevents diseases of an obnoxious
nature caused by contact. Sores, ulcers,
bruises, scalds, cuts and sprains nre
promptly remedied by it; and its cleanly,
nesting and soothing properties constitute
it a far mole desirable remedy for scorbu
tic ailments than ointments of any descrip
tion. since such greasy compounds soil the
clothing, often aggravate, and very rarely
indeed don y peimanent good.

Messrs. Editors : It. was my happy
privilege to attend a picnic last 7*alurdny,
given at the Shoal Creek Factory. A much
larger crowd was present than looked for,
although not * ninny ns to make it dis
agreeable. Tli* young people congregated
m the upper story of the old mill, and
joined ift the festivities ol a pleasant and
social dance. About )o'clock, dinner was
announced, nnd the crowd crossed the
creek and all participated very heartily.
It is needles* lor me to describe the dinner,
for we had plenty, and everything that
was good. After resting n while, the
dancer* reassembled, and continued danc
ing until bieaking-up time. Mr. Edwards
was present and seemed to take a delight
in showing the young folks the machinery,
and in doing everything in hi* power for
the enjoyment of the occasion. Several of
the young ladies and gentlemen of Carnes

A WOHD TO THE CORPULENT.
Instead of regarding obesity as an ab
normal condition, many people have .jrro
neously considered it as an evid,nc* of
health, and any agent that feduegs fit is
therefore at once suspected of being injuri
ous. Starting to reason from the false po
sition that fat is an evidence of health, it is
not surprising that they should, very natur
ally, fall into the error of supposing that
an agent possessing properties capable of
reducing corpulency, would prove injuri
ous to the health. Reasoning, however,
from the rational basis, that an undue de
position of fat, constituting obesity, is not
a healthy but a morbid condition, it is quite
as natural for us to arrive at the o|rposite
conclusion, which is sustained by experi
ence and observation, i. e., that the reduc
tion of fat in cases of corpulency is inva
riably followed by an improvement of
strength, spirits, and physical comforts.
