The ceremony was very impressive and beautifully per¬ formed. Not being an expert in de¬ scribing female attire, will say the bride was most tastefully dressed, and the groom made a most hand¬ some and manly appearance. The audience was large, and the couple left the church under a perfect show¬ er of congratulations from relatives and friends, to repare to the residence of Mr. J. F. Shannon, where a recep¬ tion was held, and a large crowd at¬ tended. There was quite a large number of persons at the marriage from Carnes- ville and other neighboring towns. The happy couple have the hear¬ tiest congratulations from all who were present. Visitor. Notice.

Looney's Gordon’s election demonstrates to the world that Georgia is true to her heroes of the lost cause. It’s a rebuke to those who think that any “new south" can get up any new issues that will whelm the memojies of the past, It lets the whole nation know that she is not ashamed of the part she took in the civil war. It lets the north understand that if Southern Confederates were traitors, the he¬ roes of 1776 were traitors as well, and that we have not accepted the sophistry that might is right, or that the triumph of the sword is the tri¬ umph of justice. It also demonstrates her fatth in the ability of her gallant son to rep¬ resent herself and the whole South in the national councils. Wide- minded, big-hearted, noble-souled, an orator, a statesman, a hero, Gor¬ don is the man we need at this par- titular juncture, to meet in debate such men as the republican party | has raised to “bad eminence” in the affairs of the nation, There he is for six years to come, and there let him remain until the sands in his hourglass with their dazzling passage shall all run out, and life’s day for him shall pale on the sunset shore of this world, to rise with a purified lustre in the realms of the world to COIUO. The republicans have had a high old time with their annual thanks¬ givings, with slight interruption, for twenty-five years of bad government. They will not be likely to enjoy the present one very muchly, so to speak. We have promised to eat thanks¬ giving turkey with Col. Dortch to¬ day (Thursday). We have two things, in a political sense, for which to be cxtremlv thankful: the triumph of the democrats on the 4th of No¬ vember, and the election of Gordon to the United States Senate on the 18th. Sid Lewis, of the Sparta T*hmael -! its, facetiously remarks that the head¬ quarters of Hines and the hind quar¬ ters of Norwood are floating down Salt liver in a sardine box. Wonder if big Tom Reed of Maine will tell congi essman Crisp of Geor¬ gia to sit down some more, when the menagerie is turned into a decent i arena again as our ancestors design¬ ed it to be! We delight to echo the words of the Tribune where it says, “The election of Gordon was glory enough for one day.” The Macon Telegraph seems to think itself entitled to most of the glory in Gordon’s election. It did work manfully for the right, and de- serves to be honored for it. Rut the Atlanta Journal, the Savannah j News, the Rrunswick Times, the ; Sparta Ishmaelite, and a host of oth- er papers will divide the honors. Bulwer in one of bis novels says, | the only popularity that is much worth having is that which arises from a conviction, on the part of others, that our good qualities are so far in advance of our bad ones, that there is no disposition to recall our faults. A sad memory never leaves us. No matter where we may be, what sort of company we are in, there it is, wan and spectral, gliding in and out, like the shadows throng in Reek- ford’s Hall of Eblis, and seen only by the haunted one in whose being it lives forever. The famous Dr. Arnold of Rugby was asked once how he managed to . get along so well with, his pupils.' His laconic answer was, “I encour¬ age them.” Now this very thing of encouragement is something that we are all too prone to neglect. In our social relations, and in our business dealings with our follow men, we too often discourage others by some lit- ! tie word or deed that should have been left unsaid or undone. Rant of potiteness, want of care some¬ times, want of confidecncc often, these are the things that make us ungenerous and unkind. And so the iron pierces the defenseless bosom, arid the shadow rests upon the soul of a brother toiler in the hard field of life. Our school will close for the holi¬ days on the 24th of December, to open again on the first Monday in January, 1801. The .Spring session for ’01 will continue seven scholastic months, and will terminate about the middle of July. ADMINISTRATOR'S" SAI-K.
