Quite a number of the New York and Massachusetts volunteers, who are stationed at Americas, were town this week on furlough and hav ing a good time. By the recent actions of the peo ple of (jordele it seems they are de tennined to wipe out A. I 1 . Aism if they have to do it by ignoring pri maries. General Wilson seems to have made the speech of the occasion Macon Monday, IJe said: nation is too great and powerful have any neighbors on this and the American llag should from one end of it to the other. The Telfair Yeoman lias been sold to A I, Ilyals, editor of the Telfair Enterprise, and henceforth but one paper will be published in McRae, viz. The Telfair Enterprise. The Enterprise is a very enterprising pa per, and has a very enterprising edi tor and proprietor. The Hank of I'nadilla has put the farmers of that section oil notice that it is not necessary for them to plant cotton in order to borrow money, and advises that cotton be made a surplus crop entirely, This is an example worthy to imitate and will result in great relief to all classes. ■vr— There is no North and South now.

Wilcox County’s Court House Still Can Be Found at the Same Old Stand.’ The Court house bill failed to *» come up before the last session of the legislature It was made a special order more than once, but was stricken from the calendar every time, and finally tabled to be taken , up at the next session, possibly. The Court, house removal coutroled tlie bill but would not it come to a vole.

The light is over for while, now let us all make friends, blot out the past and go to work to redeem ourselves and old Wilcox. 'I’u k CuuoNier.K will not ynter further into the discussion of election nor any other faction till the election itself comes up, but will devote its time to the upbuilding of Abbeville and Wilcox county . Large delegations from both Ab beville and Rochelle were in atten dance, regularly, during the session of the legislatme, each presenting to that honorable body the question as they honestly saw and fell it, and the question has thoroughly gone before that body and will there rest till its next session, lion. R V Jiowen lias made a good and faithful representative, li e w as id wavs found in liis seat and doing what lie thought was for the best interests of the grand old state of Georgia. As above stated, the light is ever, for a while at least, so let us raise ’the llag of truce, stack arms and once more be one people working for the upbuilding of the country and for our own individual good. We hereby extend the hand of friendship in behalf of the people of Abbeville to that portion of the county who viewed this .question from a different standpoint to us. and ask that you shake. In doing this neither may compromise bis belief or position us to this question. Many of tiie Court house removal advocates have, in the past, been our closest and warmest ^Jjiends. We appreciate that friendship and the memories it brings to us. and now while no question actually con fronts Us, that could’^operate true and genuine friendship, let us bid adieu to strife ajid derision and enjoy the sweet communion of Tricnd with friend for a season.
