We have heard but little express- hion from the people in regard to the meeting that has been called for next Tuesday to consider the advisability of laying the county off into school districts, providing every district with one or more good school houses. We believe that the movement is a wise one and will do much for the educa¬ tion of the county if taken hold of as the law already directs. Franklin county’s general prosperity demands a much better system of education than she now has, and there should bo no time lost in bringing it about. Let all that possibly can come out to Carnesville next Tuesday, which i- sale day, and take a part in this mat¬ ter. Everybody is interested, and they should not hesitate to give their views on so important a matter. EDITORIALLY PARAGRAPHED. Gordon! Calhoun 1 Norwood! Livingston! Which shall it be? Keep your eye on Livingston. Tnnr.E is a strong and general fight commencing throughout the state for the improvement of com¬ mon schools. Rkv. A. G. Demtsky, the Alliance candidate for the legislature in Cobb county, dropped dead while making a political speech last week. If money is to be issued on the products of labor it will have to cover them all. No bill can ever become a law that only covers live products. ITox. James G. Blaine lias been invited to the Piedmont Exposition, and will probably attend. He will draw a larger crowd to Atlanta than any republican in the Union. Feom the present outlook there iy much doubt about the nominee of the democracy in tlie Ninth pulling through. Every one concedes him a good majority below the river, but when the mountain comities are reached they cannot be relied on. Athens is having trouble over the whisky business. Mayor Brown fined four of her druggist #200.00 each for violation of the prohibition laws. Now the druggists say tliey will carry the matter to the highest courts for a reverse in the decisions. Bill Art’s letter in Sunday’s Con¬ stitution of the 21st of September is worth more to the farmers of the state than all the speeches that has been made by Gordon, Norwood and Livingston put together. The coun¬ try philosopher knows what lie is talking about and states facts, while the others don’t know, or if they do they are not honest enough to toil it. We commend the letter to our read¬ ers. If Col. Pat Calhoun should stop from an office in the West Point Terminal company into the United States senate, tlie people would come to the conclusion that the Alliance had changed its base. It is hardly reasonable to expect such a thing, notwithstanding much evidence to the contrary. We believe Mr. Cal¬ houn a good man for tbe position and would not fret if lie should be elected. • DK.

Wc arrived at Bushviilc at eleven o’clock Saturday morning, Septem¬ ber 27, the foremost section of the county, and the place at which the county singing convention was bold. We, for a few minutes, listened with much pleasure to tlie good mu¬ sic. of the large number of singers, who had met there to mingle their melodious strains. At noon everybody was delighted with much ami nice dinner spread before them by the good people of Bnahville. In a short time wc were informed that the progressive Literary Club of that place would meet that night, and that they had invited the South¬ ern educator, Prof. Morgan II. Looney, of Carnesville, to address them at that meeting. In the afternoon we listened to such professors of music as Moore, Walkc: county, and others. When the singing of the day was over the Dushvillians all returned to their homes, expecting to return to tlie Literary Club that night to the noted lecturer, Morgan Looney. At 7:30 p. in. the club preececded with the exercises for the night. After several splendid recitations and speeches by tlie young ladies and boys, the Club called on Col. Brown, of Homer, who with much gracefulness of manner and choice of language complimented the club very highly for continuing their grand work for four years without missing a single meeting, and for the splendid library they had collected. Then the president of the Club said: “We will now be addressed by Prof. Looney, who needs no introduc¬ tion in Georgia.” It was then the noted educator and orator rose, and with his master pieces of wit and eloquence held that large and intelligent audience for one hour in a oontiuous cheer auil laugh¬ ter. The Club then adjourned. Prof. Looney was elected by the convention on Saturday to address the convention on Sunday at eleven o’clock, <ni tlie subject of music. The morning was dark and damp, but a large crowd turned out, and after a long singing lesson our South¬ ern literary man rose, and with a very appropriate remarks stated subject, which was: “God the past.” Though the rain was ing in torrents, and the house crammed as long as one could get at the door, he, with his fine and grand oratory, held them hound for three quarters of an Those who can hold an audience this under such circumstances thus long, are few and far apart.

We arrived in the fore- noon, and singing was going on in the academy. Among the leaders wo recognized our friends J. 1>. Vaughn and .1. T. Camp. At recess these two true friends took pleasure in in¬ troducing us to other leaders, both local and foreign, among the musi- sieians. As for the music from first to last, it is enough to say it was cx- eellcnt. We could almost fancy that Faun and Dryad were pausing to II-ton among the giant oaks that snr- rounded the spot. To one of a clas- sical turn it would seem as if Musieus iiim elf bad w aked from bis long sleep ,,f three tboui-aiul years in the olive groves of Athens, and that Orpheus Linus had been called back from tlie fabled fields of Asphodel. During the recesses our friend Uavne introduced us to the citizens of the locality'. We found them en¬ ergetic, intelligent, and well to do. In, fact, ne where in rural districts has it ever been our lot to meet a more interesting people, and this ap¬ plies to all,—the old, the middle- rigid, and the young. They have a fine Literary Club there which has met regularly without fail for four years. I was invited in tlie afternoon of Saturday to meet with that club that night and make them a speech. I went to simper with Mr. J. P. Wil- son. I found him and his excellent family nil that the most fastidious could desire in the way of hospitality, geniality, and refinement. After supper Mr. Wilson took me in his buggy to the club. The exercises were refined and elevating, and of a purely literary character. No time was allowed for talking soft nonsense and “eating soup with a knitting- needle.” After the regular exercises Col. Oscar Brown of Homer was called, and lie responded most grace¬ fully in a short speech that was re- finded in thought, chaste in emotion, and elegance in utterance. In atti¬ tude and manner Col. Brown is dig¬ nified and commanding, while urbane and cordial, and we iong to know him more intimately. Next our friend, Prof. A. P. N. Underwood of Franklin was called for, and respond¬ ed in a very humorous and witty ad¬ dress. It was brim full and running over with fun, and we were convulsed wit’’ laughter,—in fact the entire audience laughed all Prof. over Under¬ itseif. At tlie conclusion of wood’s speech I was called, and did the very best I could. 1 felt the joy¬ ous hilarity of tlie occasion, and hope I did not dampen it. Sunday morning the dawn rose drear ond rainy. But nevertheless quite a crowd assembled to hear the continuance of the singing. And the singing continued. Though long be¬ fore noon the rain was falling in tor¬ rents, and the audience was packed in the house so closely that individ¬ uals could scarcely heart-lifting move, yet the singing was and soul- thrilling. At 11:15 I was again called for, and responded could in as good a speech under on music as 1 scare up the circumstances. After an excel¬ lent basket dinner packed in amid jiacked surroundings, tlie business of the convention was rapidly dispatched SlcDon- by its able president, dismissed llenry nel, and we were to our several homes and stopping places. The rain was flooding the earth with a perfect cataclysm when we left the house, lienee it was utterly out of the question for those from a distance to third: of reaching home on Sunday evening. So they stopped for the night at various good houses in the neighborhood. Prof. Pavnc and my¬ self went to Mrs. Owen’s, where in the company of herself, her son Cal¬ vin, and her two amiable grand¬ daughters, Misses Alice and Nannie, wc spent a most delightful time. It rained all night Sunday Monday, niglit. Next morning, for wo con¬ cluded to strike the mud Carnes¬ ville, which we proceeded to do. We came to a little creek which looked like a river, but we went through it. About eleven o’clock we came to Nail’s Creek which we found impass¬ able. We went Lack to Mr. Wm. Holbrook’s where wo were invited to dinner, and where the dinner was lit for a prince. Wo remained with this excellent family till late in the after¬ noon, and then impassable. going to the Dr. creek we found it still Thus. Holbrook invited us to his house. We accepted the invitation, and stayed with him and his amiable family Monday be night. fortunate Any gentle¬ man, who may * so as to enjoy the hospitality of Dr. Hol¬ brook, will find that his lot has for the while fallen in pleasant places. and Tuesday morning we with difficulty some risk crossed Nail’s Creek. Later in the forenoon we with more difficulty and greater risk crossed Midtile River. Arriving at our home creeek oiwthe border of Carnesville we found it so run down that wo easily crossed it.

WONDERFUL CURES. Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 2, ’DO. Six months ago, at the request of a fr iend who was interested in the sale of King’s Royal Germetuer, I made a written statement of the ben¬ efits I had received from the use of that medicine. In that statement I expressed the belief that it would cure me entirely of Catarrh. Within the last two months I have received letters from every quarter of the na¬ tion calling on me for further infor¬ mation in regard to my health, lt has been impossible for me to write privately to each person who has made this request, and I am there¬ fore under the necessity of making another statement. I am free from Catarrh. Ibeleive that 1 could get a certificate to this effect from any competent physi¬ cian. I have used no medicine with¬ in the last six months except King’s Royal Germetuer. My health is bet¬ ter than it has been in thirty years. I am in posession of information which warrants me in saying that the relief which 1 have experienced from the use of the medicine is not more certain and radical than that which it has brought to hundreds of pier- sons in Georgia and other States. 1 feel it to be my duly to say, al¬ so, that the effects of this remedy upon my wife have been even more signal and wonderful. She has been almost a life-long invalid from Ner¬ vous Headache, Neuralgia and rheu¬ matism. In a period of thirty years she has scarcely had a day’s exemption from pain. Fhe lias been using Ger¬ metuer about two months. A more complete transformation I have nev¬ er witnessed. Every symptom of disease has disappeared. 8he ap¬ pears to be twenty years younger, and is as happy and playful as a healthy child. Wc have persuaded many of our friends to take the med¬ icine, and the testimony of all of them is that it is a great remedy. J. R. IIawthoknk, Pastor First Baptist Church. Royal Germetuer builds up from the first dose, tlie patient quickly feeling its invigorating and health- giving influence. It increases the appetite, aids digestion, clears the complexion, regulates the liver, kid¬ neys, etc., and speedily brings bloom to the cheek, strength to the body and joy to the heart. For weak ami debilitated females it is without a rival or peer.
