Yesterday was the day ap iointed by the Governor, as a day of hanksgiving, but it was very little loticed by tlie people of this place. 05r We ure glad to welcome again ,o our town Mr. Thompson the life in mrance agent. f ■ 1 A freedman of Hamilton is lulled to know how long that fellow hanks-giving day has been in town, ind is very inquisitive as to how long ie will stay. jpajj” During our absence T. R. llitchell will attend to our mail. ggp Electioneering is very brisk aftrdng candidates for county ofi.ces, especially among the candidates for Treasurer, News. Gamble & Copeland will sell ready made clothing at reduced rates for cash. nov2o 4t We regret to learn the death of Dr. Hanks, who died near Ellcrslie ou Saturday the 14th ints., after a long and painful illness. The Doctor was a good citizen and a kind and in dulgent father. We learn that he made a profession of religion before his death and joined the Methodist Church. ty Dr. Press Gibbs who has the management of this paper, has gone to visit his brother in Merri weather county. While wishing him a pleas ant trip, we hope he will give us a history of matters in general in that county on his return. i igj I T ' fT~ We are glad to see ’our old friend and fellow townsman Joel Johnston in our office. He is looking in fine health, and indicates that the healthy country air agrees with him. May he live long and prosper in his country home. We are glad to see our townsman Mr. Sim Murphey, who has been spending several months in Atlanta, once more on our streets, and to hear that he has returned to stay, Jrgf” Our farmers generally have improved the faborable weather and gotten out their cotton. While the crop is not so good as it was last year it has turned out sully as well as was expected. Sdp*” After weeks of the most love ly weather it has ever been our good fortune to enjoy since first we set foot upon this subluniary ball, the clouds have gathered the w inds have blew cold from the North, making our citizens to gather around the bla ing fire and say with Sancho Porza as to sleep, “God bles*s the man that invented fire.” -!! Snake season being over we find some difficlty in getting up items of interest in our quiet village. Be patient kind readers, "when the vernal sun shall warm the torpid reptiles into life we’ll tell you tales of them that “ will make your hair stand on end like quills of the fretful porcu pine, ’’ yea that will so fi'l Jrour dreams with them that you will find no time to ride or be ridden by the night-mare. Candidates are as plentiful in this county as fiddlers are said to be in a certain warm climate. Every voter can certainly be suited with so long a list to choose from. We’ll wager a year’s snbscripton that no voter can come to town and remain upon the streets an hour without be ing tackled by a candidate, nor visit any country store, nor public gather ing, from a marriage to a funeral without finding one present. We are thankful for one thing, that they ara-wll good democrats nd white y*hen, and whoever is elected we can heartily congratulate him and feel that the interests of the county are safe. Remember the election will take place the first Wednesday in January next. S2f“ The field is full of candidates for county officers, and judging from their manner of electionering, we pre sume that the canvass will grow pret ty warm by the day of election. We had hoped that all candidates for the various positions would have handed in thoir cards by this time, as we are satisfied their numerous friends would like to see their names publicly annouced. important case against the Water lot Company of Columbus Georgia, in favor of the Bank of Brunswick and the Eagle & Phetiix Manufacturing Company, claimant, was decided in favor of the plaintiff, the property being found subject to satisfy the execution. This case will go to the supreme court. This is one of the most important oases which has occurred for ‘.n&ny years in Western Georgia, and will cause much litigation, astlietitle and the rights of much capital is involved. Attention. Go to Gamble & Copeland and buy your prints at ten cents for cash. nov2o 4t If our patrons find the col umns of the Visitor less spicy and interesting than usual, our excuse is that the Editor is absent, and his place supplied pro tern by an amateur scribbler, who feels as much out of his place as did Phaeton when ho es sayed to drive the chariot of the sun. Crops In Harris County. —The farmers are generally done picking out their cotton crop, which will be much lighter than last year’s crop, owing lo the severe drought in Au gust. The Fall being so favorable the entire crop will be ready for mar ket in the next two weeks There was raised !n the county more grain of every description this year than last, and our farmers are now sowing large quantities of small grain; there are more hogs to fatten than usual, and raoro general thrift among our citizens manifested than since the war; the outlook for Harris is cheer ing and we say well done! Go ahead, practice industry, good hus bandry and si riel economy, and in a short lime the red hills of your county will again bloom as the rose and your vallies will reverberate with the joyous songs and meiry laugh of t. happy -nd p- aapnrous people. The Sunny South, the new literary paper established in Atlanta bv Mr. John H. Seals, has made its appear ance, and bids fail to have a large circulation in this section. n/iiii). —Mr. Pink Kilpatrick died at his fathers house, on the 14th inst. This young man died of Typhoid fe ver. He was a member of the M. Pi. Church, and also of the friends of Temperance. He often told his fam ily he did'not think he would live long. He left a large circle of true friends to mourn his early loss. We tender onr condolence to the bereaved family* There is a young William Goat that loafs around town which affords a great deal of amusement to the little boys. Some of our merchants have been busy for several weeks eulorc ing their liens upon the crops of far mers for guano and provisions fur nished them. Some poor men have had their all swept from them, and have not a pound of cotton or fodder nor a bushel of corn left for another year. Such will be compelled to work for wages next year unless the Legislature at the approaching ses sion shall re-enact the lien laws in some form. It is a grievous remedy but not so bad perhaps as the disease. The quarterly meeting of the Methodist church for this circuit will be held in this place beginning on Saturday morning next. The presid ing elder the Rev. Mr. McGebee of Columbus will be present. £3fP“lf elected Treasu r er of Harris I’m gwine to vote for ex-Govner Bullavch to have to himself with ibe exception of one hundred shares each for myself aud the man in the moon We bear of frees in almost every section; There is hardly an ex change received that has not at the head of one of its columns the appall ing word fire\ Our readers will doubtless say, be careful and you will not be visited by the red-tongued demon. But they are mistaken, it is <reDera'ly the work of an incendiary. To think that a man works hard for a whole year, and then when he gets hia some infernal wretch should have to go and stick fire to his possessions and burn him out of house and home.
