UTThe damage to bridges in this county is not so great as was thought at first.

C jF’For tobacco and cigars, cheap as dirt, go to Parker & Camp Bros. They are head quarters for such articles. There is nobody betwen them and the maker. They buy from the large manufacturers. desire to call your prayerful atten tion to our terms of subscription and ad vertising rates, to be found in the first column on the second page. They are in force from this date, and no variation will be made, so do not ask it of us. tAP’Sugar, coffee and lieavey groceries are the specialties of Parker & Camp Bros. They will not be undersold, and always have the best articles in the market. You are cheating the old lady and the children when you fail to buy from this wide-awake firm. good people in this place have, we think, arrived at the conclusion that nothing can be done to save the old sinners, so they have gone to work on the children, as is evi denced by the fact that the Sunday Schools .are in a flourishing condition and well at tended to by those interested. i here is a movement on foot to change the mail schedule betwen here and Harmony (irove to have it start from here in the morning and return in the evening. We have no objections, provided they make the time of leasing here in the morning so that it will connect witli the down train on the JNbrth eastern. EdPßob Jackson allows as how he is the champion wrestler of this neighborhood, lie has piled several of the boys this week, amon" them the champion of Jackson county.— Gainesville Eagle. Well. Ham, he may be the boss up in your county, but we will put up a small pile to the effect that he is not the boss of this countv. 1 IP’For the first time, we expect, since its existence, .Jackson county has all of its own money in a building of its own. The new sale that Judge Bell ordered for Jim Wil liaiuson to keep the county money in lias ar rived, and has been placed in the vault in the Clerk’s office, and the county money placed in it, whore it belongs. Gossip. The blind preacher will be here next Sun day. onder if the mumps propose to spend the summer in town ? Hill Randolph has returned, and hereafter willjwing on his own gate. The Martin Institute made a charming addition to its roll this week. We regret to state that Dr. Ange DcLapcr riere is in vcr3 r feeble health at present. Bud McElhannon drives the mail to Har mony Grove occasionally for recreation. We regret that “Lambert’s” article was overlooked. Will be more careful next time. Some of the most progressive farmers in the count3 T belong to the Planters Grange, at Apple Valle3’, in this county. Newt McDonald has moved over to liar moii3 r Grove. You must make his acquain tance, William, he is a bird. Mr. J. 11. Butler, who has been attending Prof. Parker's excellent school in llarmon3’ Grove, lias returned to his home in Alabama. The United States authorities charged aunt Bets}' Ozemint with retailing > liquor without license, but she proved herself clear of the charge. Judge Howard, 11. W. Bell, J. E. Randolph and F. L. Pendergrass, our railroad magnates, have been up to Gainesville this week, looking after the railroad. W. J. Davenport and daughter, of the Glade, arrived in town last Monday evening. Bill will return after a short sojourn. Miss Jessie will remain for sometime. Tom Nunn, of Gillsville, sends us word that the mumps caused him to lose one of his eyes. But he says he intends to read the llehald just as long as lie can see. Frank Reinhardt was the first to put up a store on the line of the Gainesville & Jclfer son railroad, and he is reaping the reward that his pluck and energy demands. J. J. Strickland, Esq., of Daniclsville, was in the city last Monday and Tuesday. We arc glad to see our friend looking so well. Paternal cares seem to rest so lightly upon his 3'oung shoulders. Col. Silman has been suffering from a severe attack of rheumatism in his right arm ever since his return from Atlanta. lie is fearful that it may cause an old wound, received during the war, to break out and give trouble. Hill Randolph says that if you want to be convinced of the fact that a narrow guage railroad is a good thing, just go over to Hart well and see what it has done for that town, and then take a ride on the “Nancy Hart,” and you will no longer have any doubts upon the subject. Here is the way Ham, of the Gainesville Eagle, flattered our bo3’s. lie is certainly an adept at the business, and in the following he touched eacl* one's particular weakness: “ J. A. B. MahafTey, the blonde-bearded ma3’or of Jefferson, has been taking in the Superior Court during the week. He hopes to ride up on the railroad the next time he comes to court. Hon. W. I. Pike lias illumed the court with his genial presence. It does one's heart good to see Bill smile, it is so child-like and bland. Judge Wilev Howard, of Jefferson, brought his beard and genial smile up to court. He has to come up to Gainesville once in a while to hear the whistle blow, so he can tell the Jefferson folks how it will sound when the new railroad comes.” Williamson’s Sale Notes. Fodder went high. Sheepskins were in demand. The sale continued two days. Feather beds were in demand. Corn brought eighty-one cents. Sidney Elder bought a young house. Hoe hands sold for fifty cents apiece. Goober venders were on hand in force. A. 11. Brock bought the lino gold watch. Mrs. Nabers rented the house and outbuild ings. The crowd was about as large as it was before. ‘‘Uncle Mike” had the best gin house in the countj\ Tom McElhannon and Tom Niblack in vested in hogs. The general opinion was that the different articles sold high. There was one feather bed sold that weigh ed sixty pounds. Wo picked up several new subscribers. Thanks, gentlemen. Uncle Winn Worsham and his match, Mr. Yearwood, were there. Several of our Athenian merchants were on hand, talking joanna. This sale will break up one of the oldest homesteads in the county. Anew name for geese—hoe hands. And it is said that they are first-class. Uncle Frank Harrison made some excel lent purchases of blooded cattle. Lum Williamson’s hog call is on the order of a Comanche Indian’s war whoop. Capt. Tom Williams is a “ boss” hand at making property bring more than it is worth. Dave Camp was on hand, setting forth the advantages in trading with Parker & Camp Bros., of Athens. Winn Worsham bought a coach for the narrow guage railroad, and l)ol Brooks bought enough old iron to iron it. Jack Gilleland was heard to bemourn the fact that he had lost two valuable days at tending the sale, and had only bought six old hens. Judging from the anxiety of the crowd to buy feather beds, we are of the opinion that everybody In Jackson county wants one and but few have them. Charlie Shackelford bought a handsome young roan mule for “ Coon” Daniel to plow and ride of a Sunday. So “ Coon'* has de cided not to go to Texas. We regret that our “boss” Harmony Grove correspondent was not there to get him a feather bed. We had fully made up our mind [to buy him one, but they went too high. Harmony Grove. BY OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. —Guano. —You can call it a “brick’’ if3'on want to, but a “Jack malanter” is what we call it over here. —Messrs.

McDonald has rented a dwell ing and store-room in our town, and it is ru mored that we will have “ logwood’9 beer” again. —The demand for fertilizers was never known to be greater here. The farmers cer tainly intend to try and glut the market with cotton next fall* —There will certainly be a great many pic nics this spring, or one of our merchants will be disappointed. We noticed on a box the other day, 1 gross picnic cups. —When the boys get too boisterous on the Northeastern train, Conductor John Patterson files a writ of ejectment, which has a tenden cy to make them stop over in Harmony Grove a few hours. —lt looks bad enough to see farmers buy ing meat and flour, but it is a great deal worse to see them buying Western hay, when there is enough crab grass raised in Jackson county to keep up the live stock in three such counties. —Dr. W. S. Alexander spent two or three days in Maysvills last week. lie don’t tell us his business now when he goes off, but we can guess at it sometimes, especially when our people run out of a certain article of something to eat. —When Dick Jones, of Banks county, hears of a horse running away in our town, he comes immediately to trade for him. Bet ter let Dick have all the runaway horses. He knows exactly what to do with them, and he is a good, clever fellow besides. Letter from Maysville. Mr. Editor: —From some cause, we have failed to notice any communications from this part of Jackson county for quite a long time. Your correspondents from this locali ty have certainty been very busily engaged. We trust, however, that as the busy season is gradually passing off, they will have more time to devote in detailing the news. Our village is rapidly improving. New buildings arc going up in all directions, which very forcibly illustrates the thrift and enter prise of this community. I know of noplace presenting more favorable inducements to those desiring to obtain school advantages for their children, healthy climate, or railroad conveniences. We have here the manufacturing interests represented as follows: Leather of all de scriptions made by Atkins, Carr & Cos. Col lars, saddles and harness by Atkins & Dead wyler. Boots and shoes by G. W. Brown. Wagons of all kind by J. M. Howard & Cos. Plows and farming utensils by Wallace & Howard. All such institutions speak well for a place, an 1 though they may be consid ered only in their infancy at present, they will increase and become more fully devel oped as the wants of the people demand. We also have a here unsur passed by any for morality. This was proven by being among the first to banish the sale of ardent spirits within the District limits. We are proud to see that other parts of the county are doing likewise. And at this point it may be appropriate to mention the praise bestowed upon our worthy Ordinary for the strong position he has taken in favor of the tempeKince movement, which bids fair to accomplish so much good in our count3 r . More anon. Leo. Maysville, Ga., March 29 tli, 1881. Rockwell Dots. The engineer corps is now surveying the route of the Jng Tavern and Gainesville Railroad. At this writing (Monday the 28th,) they are encamped at Mr. Brazelton’s, six miles from the junction of the Gainesville and Jefferson Railroad. They expect to get to the Tavern by Wednesday, at which time there will be a meeting of the stockholders. Cols, Candler and Redwine are with them, looking after the interest of the road. The prospect for the building of the road is good and the outlook quite favorable. “So let ’er role.” Will let you know the result of the meeting next week. Mr. James B. Lyle, one of our best citizens, died the 24th—only four days between his and his daughter’s death. Surely this family has been sorely afflicted. We tender to them our warmest sympathies. Jug Tavern is putting things in order generall} r . Several new buildings going up. Her merchants are replenishing their stocks of goods. And, by the way, there are stocks of goods there that would do credit to any of our country towns. All she needs is the railroad and a few advertisements, and “ she will .make things roll.” The Mulberry circuit, M. E. Church, South, is erecting an elegant parsonage at Jug Tavern. This looks like it meant to take care of the preacher. Mrs. Bonds, an aged lady, died on the morning of the 24th. Vande Linctum. Grateful Women. None receive so much benefit, and none are so profoundly grateful and show such an interest in recommending Hop Bitters as women. It is the only remedy peculiarly adapted to the many ills the sex is almost universally subject to. Chills and fever, in digestion or deranged liver, constant or peri odical sick headaches, weakness in the back or kidneys, pain in the shoulders and dilfer ent parts of the body, a feeling of lassitude aud despondency, arc all readily removed by these Bitters. — Courant, The Situation in Washington. We extract the following from the special Washington correspondence of the Atlanta Constitution. It gives a good and succinct account of what our wise Senators are doing and the reason why they dou’t get through and come home. “ The senate is sullenly sitting day after day in a deadlock, both sides determined, to all appearance, not to yield. There have been some interesting scenes. The public is enter tained. Even standing room in the galleries is precious. The democrats hold much the stronger position. They conceded the committees to the republicans without a struggle because the committes are necessary to the progress of business. This done they said that it was proper to proceed with the business for which the session was called and they made various efforts to do so. But the republican greed of office was dominant over all other mo tives. Nothing would do J>ut to turn out a few democratic office holders and put in the list arranged in the Mahonc trade. No change is necessary, none was ever made in an executive session. But here for days the republicans have refused to allow the senate to proceed with its business because the democrats will not agree to change the offi cers without reason and at a very unusual time. One hundred names lie on the desk for action. Nominations are sent in every day. There are vacant positions of all grades, some of which ought to have been filled a month ago. Motion after motion to do the proper business is defeated by the stubborn republican 37, with their 1 confederate brigadier and their vice president in the chair. Yet in the face of these facts old Hoar had the cheek to get up and declare that the demo crats were obstructing the business of the senate and thereby holding to a doctrine which was the essence of treason. Senator Brown made Iloar sick of the proposition, showing that if it were correct the saintly senator from Massachusetts would be an arch traitor, for it was he and his party who clogged the wheels of the senate’s progress. Mr. Iloar had to explain and explain, again, but he couldn ot explain away the impres sion that he had exhibited himself in a ridiculous attitude.” Standard of the English Language.

An excellent feature of the New Edition of Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary, just is sued, is the New Biographical Dictionary, in which are given the names of nearly ten thousand noted persons of ancient and mod ern times, with a brief statement of the dates of their birth and death, their nationality, profession, etc. This is designed for pur poses of ready reference, to answer the ques tions which often arise as to when and where certain persons lived, and the character of their achievements.

General Gordon has arrived in Atlanta, and said to a Constitution interviewer that the Georgia Western Road would certainly be surveyed and located at once, and as soon as this was done the work of its construction would begin. lie says he feels perfectly safe in saying that inside of two years the road will be completed and trains will be runuing from Atlanta to Columbus, Mississippi. The people of Atlanta will not be called on for subscriptions until the success of the road is assured. • A special dispatch from Sparta to the Au gusta Evening Ncivs says the neighborhood about five and a half miles from Sparta is very much excited over a diabolical outrage attempted by a j’oung negro of eighteen on the person of a respectable white girl. On Wednesday night about 9 o’clock, a party of over twenty of the best people in the neigh borhood caught the negro, tied a rope around his neck, carried him out into the woods and hanged him. Excitement on the subject Is intense, ami the swift punishment of the crim inal is not condemned. Says the llincsville Gazette: ‘'There is a great deal of corn being shipped to this part of the wnrl 1 now. The home supply in this and some of the adjoining counties is ex hausted. Every train and every boat has Western corn for part of her cargo at least. In the timber region especially, there is a continual drain upon the finances of the coun try for corn to feed the stock and hands. And unless more attention is paid to the farm now, the same thing will be repeated next year. Wo take it as a sound maxim that no agricul tural people can prosper unless the food supply is raised at home.” Perry Home Journal: “ Several week ago, during an excessively wet season, a gentle man was on his way to Macon via the wagon road. At Echeconnec creek he saw a sow and five pigs in the swamp on a place that was dry land before the recent rains. The water of the creek had risen so rapidly that the sow was covered within three inches of the top of her back. The pigs, to escape the water, had climbed upon the back of the sow, and there they were across the sow, their hind legs dangling in the water on one side, and their noses occasionally dipping on the other.

One of the most horrible acts known in tbe catalogue of crime is patercide. In the olden time it was punished with the most torturous death. Even the cities of refuge would not protect a man who had slain his father. lie was looked upon as a.hideous monster, to be gotten out of the way as any other raging wild beast. For the honor of our county be it said that until this week her record has never been blackened by such a.crime. While there has beeli undutifnl sons.- in our midst, of both races, none have ever been so far lost to hu manity as to even seek the life of a parent. Tuesday evening there was brought to Lex ington a negro boy named John Haynes, whose hands had,just been stained with tbe life-blood of his father, Aaron Ilaynes. The prisoner is a diminutive,, copper-col ored boyq with a frank, open face, large, hon est eyes, and bears not a stamp of tbe hideous brute he is. A more, harmless, unoffending face we never saw. But those who know him say a more bipod thirsty 3 T oung demon never existed. From an infant he has been noted for his stubborn and most cruel disposition. llis father, who was an unoffending negro, working on the place of Mrs. Hunter, near Bowling Green, had often occasion to correct him, which was resisted to the extent of the young fiend’s power. The other hands on the farm, seeing how John chafed under reproof, teased him every time he was chastised, which served to goard him to revenge. On Tuesday last John’s father again had occasion to chastise him for some miscon duct, when he jerked up a rock, and hurling it with great force at the old man, struck him a stunning blow behind the ear, knocking him senseless. It was then that the true spirit of this young demon came out. With a bestial cruelty he seized another large stone, and going to the prostrate body of his father, deliberately battered his head until the last spark of life was extinct. The murderer now awaits trial in our jail, lie soems to have no conception of the enor mity of his offense. lie is as placid and se rene as a spring morning. That the sentence of death will be passed upon him at April Court we feel no doubt. Our people are every day losing control over their minor children. The modern youth of 16 feels himself more of a man than one of twenty years ago who had reached his majority. This applies to both races.— Oglethorpe Echo. Says the Walton County Videtle “ Within the last few months before the first of Janu ary of this year, about forty-five families left this county to seek homes in Louisiana and other States. Various conjectures have been made as to the cause or causes of this stam pede. Certainly it is not due to any objec tion to our climate, which cannot be excelled, nor yet to our soil, which is abundantly pro ductive when properly cultivated. It has been suggested to us by a farmer who has been investigating the matter, that most of these families left because they found that they could not live here and pay such a high rate of interest on money borrowed to pay for their yearly supplies. It is probable that our farmers find it difficult to borrow money Wanted* Fifty hands, to work on Gainesville, Jeffer son & Southern Railroad. WilDpay ninety cents per day for good hands.
