JESSE THOMPSON & CO. One Of Augusta’s Big EnterpriB es. During a recent visit to the Foun¬ tain City, we visited the mammoth es¬ tablishment of Jesse Thompson A Co., manufacturers of doors, sash, blinds, j shingles, laths, moulding, brackets | and yellow and pine lumber, write builders’ of this grand hard¬ ware etc., we iudustry of Augusta. First we give a SKETCH OK MR. JESSE THOMPSON. In ’61 he enlisted in regiment of South Carolina, where he served until they were disbanded, he then entered as a private iu Blodgett’s Infantry and af¬ ter the re-organization of the army lie was duly elected lieutenant of artilery. In conversation with an old veteran of the war, we learned the following in reference to Jessie Thomson as a sol¬ dier. “Jesse.” said the old veteran “was beliked by all of his comrades, he was a valiant soldier, true to the cause that hs espoused, being con¬ scious that he was discharging his du¬ ty toward his countiy and further¬ more, whenever a raid was necessary for forage, etc., Jesse was always selected as the leader of the gang.” in the ar¬ my of Virginia, where the most blood curdling scenes were enacted during ! the late unpleasantness Mi. Thompson I remained until the close of the war. When the bitter strife between the States was ended, this valliant soldier returned to Augusta, took up his tools and went to work with an energy and that energy lias been crowned witii success, as will be seen by the follow¬ ing. TWENTY-TWO MILES OF RAILWAY. We learned that, this firm has twen¬ ty-two miles of railway running from Midvdle to Swainshoiough. in Eman¬ uel county. This railroad was built expressly for the use of the company in transporting limner &c. They have also coaches attached for the lien elit of passengers. They have two saw mills on the road where tney obtain all of their lumber At these two mill they work 160 hands, and th y hav lever had any Tabor troubles whateve as ‘lie workmen make good wages and perfectly satisfied. They have also fii head of mules for hauling logs from the woods to the mill where they are sawed up into lumber, and translat¬ ed by the aid of their railway to their works in Augusta where it is handled by first class workmen, whom tne firm has employed to turn out any kind of work that the public demands. These works were established fifteen years ago. and Mr. Thompson is the founder. Their works iu Augusta cover over four acres of ground in the city, and wook over eighty hands. The firm now consists of the lollowing gentlemen; Mr. Jesse Thompson; A. G. Sherman; A. Gregg and Louis Thompson - THE LARGEST IN TnE SOUTH. We had the pleasure of visiting the most prominent sash and biiud facto¬ ries in Georgia and Tennessee, and will assert that this firm is the largest in the southern State. They ship goods through Ga., and S. C., and are now filling a large order for Charles¬ ton. We-took a trip thr ough the fac¬ tory, and found that this firm had all the improved machinery of modern times - The engine room was visited and was found to be in first class style, everything was in perfect order and all the hands seemed to be happy in the discharge of their duties, and seemed to vie with eacli ottier in lavishing up¬ on their employers their best wishes. We passed through the spacious store room, where blinds, sash and doors, are ready for shipment. In this de¬ partment the visitor will find a glazing room, where four men are kept contin¬ ually busy spreading putty. It would he us less for the scribe to undertake to give a full description of this enor¬ mous factory, but suffice to say that it is the best equiped and most reliable Sash, Blind and door factory in the Southern States. After a tiresome but pleasant trip through th& works, we sought tl e office to extend our thanks to the proprietors for their courtesy. On entering the office the first thing that we saw was an electric clock. This invention is a great benefit both to the insurance agent, and the own ere of property. This firm has stations in different parts of the works, and when the hour rolls around for punch ing the clock, the watchman touches an ivory knob at the station, and the time of the night is duly punched on the dial of the clock; so much for elec tricity. The office is indeod a palace within itself, it is well carpeted, and the furniture ij of the finest. Our at¬ tention was cited on a handsome side board, which was made out of Georgia pine, and (dished with hard oil, the whole being made and finished up in firsti class sryle by the firm. This is an enterprise that Augusta is proud of, and the way that this firm has con¬ ducted business in the past, is a suf fiuienj; guarantee that they are ups with the times, and they will leave stone unturned to acquire to the wants aud wishes of their patrons. This firm lias started out in life to make a reputation that will lie an example for ah’ young men following in their wake. They fijive no war to make upon capi toi, and are in perfect sympathy with the toiling sons of labor. We aie happy in chronicling the above, and tnrows the old shoe in theirwake and predict for them a bright and glorious future, and iu the language of Otd Rip, “may they live long and pros¬ per.” ————— •ma*— • —— How Some Maine Fisher¬ men were Punished. The holding of one-tenth of Ticket 73,987 in The Louisiana State Lottery Marston, Jorday and others of this ci y, mai.es the second time that the capital prize (160,000) has came to Poith.nd within the p ist year. The good luck of the i rst syndicate who drew $15,000 induced Marston and friends to form a combination and pur¬ chased ten one-dollar, or one-tenth tickets, One of these tickets drew $15,(XX). Six or seven of the Marston syndicate are fishermen or laborers in needy circumstances and the money conies very opportunely to them, —Portladd (Me.) Express, March 3. ATLANTA NOTES. Four miles from the city on the Flat Shoals, near McPherson avenue is the s(H)t where the Federal G enerai Mc¬ Pherson was killed by a shell from a Con ft yate battery. It is situated in esque clump of (dues, and the °nt is a large cannon, very ap ; tjSsatiL r v *g ti un it reuown of the Federal war ritrs.

T le Democrat is spoken of in com¬ plimentary terms everywhere 1 go. Afr. C. A. Niles, the Atlanta Cor¬ respondent of that ably edited and tru¬ ly Democratic paper, the Macon Tele¬ graph A Messenger, is one of the best reporters in the .State, and is genial and obliging. He is unusually popu¬ lar and lias legions of friends. Comptroller General Wright says it is all bosh about the Republicans elect¬ ing a President In 1888.

Womau is a help meet for man; wa created for man; is the weaker vessel of human. mv oinan. ” says Emerson, “it the representative of affection." While man rules by power, she rules by love. Man seeks to become famous, woman to become lovely. What man will not notice, woman will admire. When mail abuses, woman pities. But when a woman gets out of her place, ruling her husband, pleading law, preaching the gosue), and voting on any business occasion, she becomes a dishonor to man, and a shame to her sex. Woman is one of the grandest pieces of work ever came from the hands of our Maker. No gem was ever of more honor to a crown, than woman to the world - No flower ever shed a lovelier fragrance. But with many & regret we say, there are women in the world whose only thought is to dress, to go to dances, to go to church when they can sit where no one will bother their graceful attitude, but just look at them; who will do anything to alarm, but nothing to charm. Whose deepest thou lit is pride. Whoso only desire is to he toticled bv the fops of the world. Of such we say, give us i home in the wilderness. Give us « morse 1 of bread in the secret chambers of the poor. Giv-us the comp, ny of the poor and unlearned, and let us be freed from their presence. But thankful to say that there are women wl ose life reflects honor on the whole world around them - Man would he lost without lhtj|u. Our lieaeeful country would become a coun¬ try of the deepest confusion; life itself would become a complete failure. And '.he whole world would put on sack clorth, to weep over the lost of its most fragrant flower and its brightest gem. When we see a young lady walking the streets as though the world is looking at them with an eye of admiration, it fills us with a heart of the deepest pity; far more than to see the poor in rags. They are blind without a leader. In darkness with¬ out a light. In the great sea of life without a paddle to bring them safe to shore. Struggling amid its waves without either compass or pilot. Poor creatures! they are not able to wade in the great seas of thought and pure joy. K. “Don’t take the papers! You are behind the age.” “Oh, no; we live next door to a dressmaker. We don’t need them.” Scarlet Fever ami * iplithcria, are spread by contagion, by the transfer of living matter from the skin, the mem¬ branous lining of the mouth, nose and throat, and from the Intestines and uiIna¬ ry organs. Disinfect promptly and thor oughly with Darbys Prophylactic Fluid, the great germ destroyer. Prof. H. T. Lufton, of the Vanderbilt University, Telin., says: ‘‘As a disinfectant and de¬ tergent Darbys Prophylactic Fluid is su¬ perior to any preparation with which 1 am acquainted,” Don’t Look I,Ike a Wreck. “When a man is going down hill every¬ body is ready to give him a kick.” Yes, that is so. It is sad, but natural’ W by, many a man and woman, seeking em¬ ployment, would have got it if their hair hadn't been so thin and gray. One bot¬ tle of Parkers Ilair Balsam is then the best Investment. It stops falling hair, promotes new growth aud restores color. Clean, highly perfumed, not a dye. A great improvement over anv similar prep¬ aration, andsold at the low price of 60c. Don’t l-lxperiment. You cannot afford to waste tune In ex¬ perimenting wlieu your lungs are in danger. Consumption always seems, at first only a cold. Do not permit any dea¬ ler to impose upon you with some cheap imitatation of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, but be sure you get the genuine. Because he can make more profit he may tell you he has something just as good, or just the same. Don’t he deceived, but insist upon getting Dr King’s New Discovery, which is guaranteed to give relief in all Throat, Lung and Jhest affections.

It is sirn ply the b%st and most scientific cornbina tion possible of the essential principles of those vegetable curatives which act pow erfulty and directly on the stomach, liver, kidneys and blood. But there neither is nor will be, any successful mutation of it. It is all the time cum g those who had despaired of ever getting well. For yourself, your wife and children. NO. 17. LOOK OUT!
