This is one of the largest, best and cheapest dry goods houses in the coun¬ try and its stock is complete, embra¬ cing an assortment of goods which will meet the wants of all purchasers, eith¬ er in style, quality, and latest novel¬ ties, and at a positive saving. Its dress goods comprises a full line of black and colored silks. Nuns’veiling, in all the newest shades, Albatros cloths. Ar mune cloths, complete line of black goods and white embroidered robes, white dress muslin, French nainsook, Egyptian demity, Persian lawn.

Barnes who is un • questionably the choice of the Demo cracy of this, the tenth district for Congress, visited our town last Satur day. All the indications are that Maj. Barnes will have no opposition in the convention(wbich meets at Sandersville, July 1st, to nominate a candidate for Congress. He doubtless will, and should be, unanimously nominated, We haue no hesitancy in saying that no man in the district has better claims uponlthe party than Major Barnes; having served it long and faithfully, he now deserves to be rewarded for bis valuable services. He is eminently qualified for the position of representa tive of the district, being an able law yer, a fine orator and a gentleman of rare scholarly attai iments. L*t the Democrats of the district show their appreciation of his loug and valuable service by electing him their standard bearer. Thus they would honor them selves in honoring one who has always had the interest of his country at heart. The Democrats of this county will give him their unanimous support, and we feel assuredthat those in all the otliei counties in the district will do the same. athen<?NOTES BY 11 ’ AND Ai I want to be a Senoir, ^J 1 ®® n ‘ 0 ” ® t A nd ’ ® AV h A a can0 within my<i hand. ^f ° w” jaw’, f 1> ^ v e plenty ofslack CUS3him with aU might .
