Too Many Office-Seekers.
Albany \evn.
The wires are working for one of the
greatest revolutions that Georgia ever wit
nessed. There is bold significance in
the action of certain members of the Geor
gia Legislature and outside political skir
mishers. There is a power concealed from
the sight of the people, prompted by a
spirit of greed for political preference,
which will fully develop itself before an
other twelve months. Without assuming
the roll of a prophet we dare make this as
sertion. Ours is not a surmise. Our views
are warrented by plain facts. The contro
versy, the underground attack upon the
Governor and other like matters have a
deep meaning. To mnkc plain an expres
sion the misfortunes at the capital are
made to subserve the interests of political
aspirants ; and the whole will, we fear, re
sult in a division of the party, nnd an over
throw of that solidity which has held
Georgia high out of the quagmire of radi
calism for the last several years. Too
mnny otHce-scckyrs for the good of the
grand old State.

are coming up with cotton and money TO
HELP US OUT. Let others do likewise.

HARTWELL HIGH SCHOOL.
UtMiHf Kxrrriarw ml' the Fall JleaaloM.
On Friday evening, the 10th instant, at
2 o'clock, the citizens of the town and a
considerable number from the country as
sembled in the academy for the purpose
of witnessing the closing exercises of this
flourishing school.
Prof. Peek in a few introductory re
marks, explained that no preparation had
been made for a grand display, as it would
have consumed much valuable time from
teachers nnd pupils, and it was better that
the time should be devoted to something
more substantial, lie announced that
only those classes would be examined in
which prizes were given, after which origi
nal speeches and compositions would be
delivered and read by the young Indies and
gentlemen, and following, speeches and
recitations by the boys ami girls. The
following was the
PROGRAMME :
Primary Geography. This clnss stood
excellent examination, Amos McCurry, re
ceiving the prize. 11c is the boy that picks
so much cotton on Saturdays.
First Steps in Geography. Those little
ones are making their first steps, but they
are by no means uncertain ones. Mathew
Powell bore of the prize.
Intermediate Geography. This class
came otl the Held with flying colors, with
Willie Mathews as prize fighter.
General Topic Class. This is anew and
■ very useful wrinkle. Questions on almost
; every subject are written down on the
| blackboard ami the scholars copy them
and get the answer as best they can. We
give specimens of the questions: “What
is a Constitution?” “ Who invented the
telegraph, ami what was the first message
transmitted?” “ Where does slavery now
exist ?” ftc. It is a good plan, and in
creases the general knowledge of the pupil
very much. Miss Lou Holman and Llew
ellyn Grown, ranked first in this class, A.
X. Alford, second.
Fifth Speller. The whole class did so
well that they all received prizes.
Fourth Speller. This class did cast a
spell over the whole audience, Dicey
Powell bearing oil' the prize.
First Latin Class. We honestly believe
there is no class in the State can excel this
class, of the same age and experience. It
is a champion class. Llewellyn Drown
won the crown.
Dictionary. This class recites on the
“ spelling bee ” plan and as they miss they
go to their scats. They fought long and
well, nnd finally the teacher had to resort
to stratagem to break the ranks. Amos
McCurry raked m another prize. And lie
can beat ’em picking cotton, too.
Spelling No. 1. This class is A No. 1,
in faet. It is on the “spelling bee,” also,
and we began to fear they would fight it
out on that line if took all summer, but
the teacher, by slipping in illegitimate
“catch words,” floored them at last.
Miss Nora Johnson was awarded the prize.
This terminated the examination, with
satisfaction to the patrons, and with honor
anil credit alike to teachers and pupils.
Then came the reading of original com
positions and speeches.
Miss Ettie McMullan—Composition :
“Affects of Association.” The young
lady acquitted herself with great credit.
Miss Anna Peek—Composition :
“ Conversation.” The theme was well
handled, and evinced that Miss Anna is no
ordinary thinker.
Miss Orah Johnson—Composition :
“ More Offend for the Want of Thought
than for any Want of Feeling.” Miss
Orali showed considerable insight into
human nature, and made a good apology
for the thoughtless offender.
A. N. Alford —Composition :
“ The Paths of Glory Lead but to the
Grave.” There was much truth in his
composition, and his deductions in the main
correct; but while a man’s inevitable fate
is the grave, he may leave to his posterity
that priceless heritage—a good name, and
upon the pages of history a monument.
Miss Pou Holman—Composition :
“ Italy Beyond the Alps.” A beautiful
subject; and Miss Lou crossed the snow
clad Alps into the lovely land of romance
with much more ease and grace than did
the great Napoleon.
Miss Norah Johnson—Composition :
“ Attention Makes the Genius.” In
our opinion, this was the best composition
of them all. and was read with most ex
quisite grace. This we say without dis
paragement to any', as they all did well.
Llewellyn Brown—Speech :
44 Mental Pleasures .Never Cloy.” This
was a solid, argumentative, symmetrical
speech, well delivered; perhaps a little
more fire would have added to the effect.
That was all it needed.
Then the following little girls and boys
repeated choice selections, and all them
spoke like anything and never missed a
word :
Sammic Holland, Bodie Mathews, Cyn
thia Powell, Em. Sattcrlield, Lelia Steph
enson, Tommie Wilson, Clara Hodges,
Arthur Linder, Ida Satterfield, Amicus
Stephenson. Ida Sanders, Willie Maxwell,
Walter Ilodgcs, Hell Johnson. Llewellyn
Stephenson, Emma Thornton, Mathew
Powell, llafed Williams.
“ The Rainbow.” Recitation by seven
little girls.
Dialogue, by Amos McCurry and Lallie
Linder.
Valedictory, by Amos McCurry.
Maj. J. 11. Skelton then made a brief
but pointed speech, in which as one of the
trustees he lauded the teachers and pupils,
said he was proud of the school, and said
that he hoped the teachers would accept
the school another year.
Profs. Peek and* Bobo then made perti
nent addresses, returning their sincere
thanks to the people of the town and
county for their liberal support, and tend
ering the keys of the Academy to the
trustees.
We believe the patrons of the school arc
satisfied with the advancement made by
scholars, and will echo our opinion that
Profs. Bobo and Peek should be tendered
the school for next year. Under their
management the school during the year
has enrolled one hundred and eleven
pupils, a larger enrollment than has ever
been made by any school in Hartwell.
This speaks well for the teachers, and
shows the high estimate the people have
of them as educators. The Hartwell
High School has made a fine reputation,
anu has done much toward the up-building
of our beautiful village. Let the people
stand to it, and accord to these higfily
competent teachers the cordial, liberal
support they so richly merit.
Wc would state, that through the pub
lic spirit of John B. Maxwell, and other
citizen*, board for pupils from a distance
has been reduced to much lower figures
than ever before.

There is considerable competition in the

The large retail merchants in the country
are becoming more convinced every dv
that it pays to go to market and select
their own goods. A merchant who watclr
es the market and picks out his own goods
can always afloru to sell them cheaper
than those who purchase exclusively of
drummers. Of course it is very pleasant
to have the drummers drop in and spin a
few yams when yon are not busy, and
merchants who do not advertise generally
havo plenty of time to entertain these
traveling commercial gentlemen. It costs
from five to eight dollars a day to run a
drummer, and the fanners who buy Irom
the couutry merchants who patronize thcip
havo to foot up the expense and a profit on
it besides.
Dr. Witherspoon, of Andersonville, S.
I'., brought us yesterday an average Ntalk
of cotton from a patch of about one-third
of nn acre. The stalk bad on it 58 bolls,
all of which were opened except one. The
third of nn acre made a bale of cot
ton nnd was not manured. The texture is
much finer than the common cotton. It
was planted on the 6th of May, and matur
ed by the Nth of October. It can lie plant
ed two or three times as thick ns the com
mon cotton. It is called the Cannon cot
ton, and was propagated by Col. W. 11.
Cannon, of Florence, S. by selecting
seed year after year. This is just what is
needed in this section—a cotton that will
mature early before the frosts come in.
Our farmers would do well, perhaps, to
procure some of this seed.
On yesterdey, about 11 o'clock, a. in., a
bale of cotton was discovered to be on fire
in E. 11. Benson ft Co.’s cotton lot, which
was, no doubt, caught from a cigar or pipe
in the mouth or hands of someone smok
ing m the lot. The lire was discovered in
time to prevent serious loss or damage. Be
careful where you smoko.
Mr. Hall, from Rocky River, 12 miles

Hart county cotton lias a good, long
