FRIDAY, JULY 20 1888 , . TIIE EDITOR’S 4th. CLOSING OF OUR TRIP, To Gainesville and Chattanooga. On the morning of the 5th inst., the Weekly Editors met in the court house at Gainesville to do work that would benefit their business. Several most excellent resolutions were introduced and adopted. The entire day was fill¬ ed with work of interest to our organi zalion. OFFICERS ERECTED. The report of the committe upon officers for the ensuing year was ported and adopted, and the following new officers were elected unanimously: President—Ben. F. l’eiry, of the Canton Advance. First Vice-President—M. D. Irwin, of the Con yets Solid South. Second Vice-President—J. L. Un¬ derwood, of the Camilla tlarijjj). Corresponding Secretary^-S. W. Ro¬ berts, of the Sparta Ishmaeiite.

The meeting agreed upon rates of advertising and other standard rult-s by which each member must bo gov erned. Individuals were selected to writs essays for the next meeting upon some most vital points connected with our every day work. This convention property, carried oi will be of great help' do elevate H - country press of the Btnpire State "f the South. At fi o’clock the convention adjourn ed to meet again in Cartersvijie on Hie i_.st Tuesday in July iSSb, and we r< tailed to the ArljngHjii h Pel Wile’ 1 ifpueL'i Urn* li'il (,'itmi. tiV v cam awaiting to convey us “*ie Piedmont. Hotel, the home of Gen longstreet, to vvliicli place we had been invited by Mrs. Lougstreet to partake in a reception, of which the Con dilution speaks as follows: “When Mrs. Lougstreet asked tho Geoi gia press association to meet l.s-f under her own roof, the Lougstreet j of the past twenty years passed in pano¬ ramic review. But it was oiily mo¬ mentary. and then the gallant figure which had led so many a hard-won fight loomed up. It was the Loug¬ street of 1SG4, the Lougstreet whose name 's already recorded in history, and tiie Longstreet whose name will live in song and stoiy w iile memory of the confederacy lasts. At the men¬ tion of his name by the life of a wom¬ an, that woman his wife, that wife a type of the womanhood of the south which bad excelled the record of its sex in devotion to home and people, a mighty cheer went up, and private and commander were as one again. Long stri el was once more in the saddle, while pressing close around him were men as ready to do his bidding as ever gathered to his side in the army of Northern Virginia. Thus tiie scene presented in the beautiful parlors of Mis Longstreet in the Piedmont hotel became historic and one well worthy of painter’s brush. The honors of the occasion were dis¬ pensed |»y Mrs. Longstreet, surround¬ ed by .Miss Lula Longstreet, Mrs. Ken¬ dall, Mrs. Ross, Miss Edmonson, .Yiss Barnett, Miss Handers, Miss Ayeock and many other ladies. Capt. II. W. Newman, of Canton, who happened to be there on business,was drafted by the association to make the introductions, which lie did in a happy manner. Ad¬ vancing toward the dist inguished lady, Capt. Newman said: Mrs. Longstreet: In behalf of the Georgia Weekly Press association, we come to thank you for this cordial beptlon, :ir!| i to pay honor to the wife of one who so gloriously illustrated southern valor and defended the virtue of our mothers and daughters. Moth er, tiie sweetest name that was ever lispe-i bv Saxon tongue. When Doug ]a.s, the Scottish chief, went to regain t!ie toinb of our blessed Savior from the ha ds of the infidels, lie carried tim in art of Bruce in a golden caskei, and when in tho midst of battle and being hotly pressed he threw the cas¬ ket in the ranks of the enemy and said: Go, brHe heart, I will follow Lliee or die. Your gallant husband was the heart of Bruce to the army of northern Virginia, and when he gave the com¬ ma d they would follow him to vieLv iv or lo death. We hope that yods, lives may lie long spared as a benedie Uon to your country. Mr” gentle WlQ< i fair gales waft thee sioo n man ham oa high to a home not made with will eternal in the heavens.

Tltie Gainesville Eagle, one of the bfi^i weekly papers in Hie State, has our, thanks for their untiring efforts lo make our stay pleasant. Gainesville succeeded admirably in capturing the hearts of all of us, and the mode they had of doing this cap¬ turing was treating us kindly and fed us extraordinarily well. Long may the people of tins lovely city live and prosper. Through the kindness of Mr. J. M. . rown, (ten. Gass. Agt., of the Wes¬ tern & Atlantic it. R. we were tender¬ ed a nice excu siou to Chattanooga, Tean., on the night of the otli, Friday the (5th was spent in this growing city. We visited tiie princifial parts of the city over the Union fi, IL, a dummy railroad that is stretched all over the pliice, Mr. J allies, one of the directors went with us and extended us all the coLi tesies possible. We met President Campbell, of the Lookout ML. Incline JR. R. and the Hoard of Trade of the city, who took charge of us in tho afternoon and car- j riedus all over the great lookout Mountain and showed us all the sights. Wg went up this mountain a part of j the way on a broad gouge railroad and then took the incline road. II: is an exciting thing to get upon a car that pes up and down a railroad track ole vate.d about 40 degrees. Mr. G. N, Woodworth is the manager of this wonderful road and did all he could to make us enj ly our trip over the steep. We fou ,d on the top one, of the iriosL [deasant hotels we ever saw. After leaving the Hotel we too*, a g^j around in tiie heavens as it was on a narrow guage railway ami scare I ns a ll half to death,had our picture M ruck ou Ule ,, ig ,, , wint „f .Sunset R-.ck and then returned unliarmed but ihijcIi relieved when we put our feet on s**iid ^ Ilf j j ( jv'el ground egaiu.

Some of the I’n-.i s -oys have writti-ii four columns* de¬ x, ’olive of their trip. Lee Shackelford fell in love with a Gainesville young lady and has been singing “The Lily of the Mountains; the Fairest of Ten Thousand to My Soul.” .AIf. Herrington, of Swainsboro, has been in a trance every since lie retuin ed from Chattanooga. Ho can love harder in a few minutes than any “boy” we ever saw. The scenery about Chat tanoogo is as pretty as can bo found. Mr. Paul Alkerson, tho young man from Madison, Ga., who married Miss Lula Hurst, is living in Chattanooga and is well pleased with his home and business. Gainesville’s advantages are very superior and the place is destined to be one of the b st cities inllie South. Frightful. For eighteen years I had Eczema. During the last live years the physi¬ cians pronounced my disease chronic psoriasis eczema. Three years ago I was so week and ieduced that 1 had to go to bed, where I Uiv helpless for six months. At this time my feet, legs, neck and body were much swollen. My whole body resembled a dead iisli, the scales dry, dead llesii falling from me in thick (lakes. My itching at night during these six months was a terrible toitr.ro. Last Christmas a year ago, I went blind, and my sight did not return for some time.
