In response to the proclamation
of President Arthur, appointing Mon
day, Sept. 2Gth, as a day of humilia
tion and prayer, on account of the
great public calamity that has befallen
our nation in the removal, by death,
of the chief executive of our Govern
ment, President James A. Garfield,
and recommending that all the
churches throughout the union meet at
their respective places of worship and
hold services for the sad occasion,
there was a union meeting held in
Jefferson, conducted by the Rev. J.C.
Grow. Although this is the first time
the citizens of our town have made
any public demonstration of interest
since our President was wounded, it
is not, therefore, to be inferred that
no interest, or, if any, but little,
has been felt. On the contrary, deep
sympathy for him has been felt and
expressed by every one, and the deed
of the assassin has been universally
and unsparingly condemned.

Teacher’s Institute.
The nnnual session of the Teachers’
Institute of Jackson County will open
with a discussion of an important
question, on the evening of Thursday,
Oct. 18th, at 1\ P. M. We most
earnestly urge the attendance of all
the members, and we heartily invite
all the teachers, eligible to member
ship, from Jackson and the neighbor
ing counties, to unite with us. Ours
is said to be the only Teachers In
stitute in Georgia, and the people are
watching us with great interest.
Teachers in all parts of the country
are expecting us to lead in this enter
prise, and arc looking for great results
from our labors.
The State Teacher's Association
is inviting us to exhibit some of our
work at tiie next annual meeting of
that body. We have been greatly
disappointed at the small attendance
on the two last meetings. The im
portance of the work seems to be less
appreciated by many of our home
teachers than by any abroad. By
their surprising indifference, the teach
ers of Jackson are in a fair way to
lose, not only a great opportunity, but
a most desirable advantage.
If this Institute is now pressed,
much greater benefit will result to our
teachers than now appears on the
surface—benefits not only educational,
but material. We know whereof we
speak; let our teachers take notice
accordingly. Let every member of
the Institute ; let every teacher, who
can possibly do so, attend this next
annual meeting, opening on the
evening of Oct. 13th and closing Oct.
lath.
We hope to have the State School
Commissioner with us on that oc
casion, and, it may bo, other distin
guished speakers.
We have postponed the meeting for
one week so that the public schools
may by closed and the teachers be free
to attend. All can surely come on
Saturday, when we propose to discuss
the general educational interests of
the county. If this Institute is not
sustained, it will be regretted in the
future. Take notice, and come one,
come all.

Valuable Lands for Sale.
On the first Tuesday in next Novem
ber there will be lots of good land sold
in Jackson county, both at Executor's,
Administrator’s and Sheriff’s sale, as
will be scon by reference to our
advertising columns.
WILLIAMSON LANDS.
This property and mills are well
known in this and adjoining counties.
The mills arc cons’dcrd amongst the
best in the county. The lands are
A No. 1, and cannot be excelled for
productiveness in Northeast Georgia.
It is considered one of the best tracts
of land that there is, and is well
divided. As an investment, it cannot
be excelled, and it would be a bonanza
to some man who knows how to farm.
The man who buys it for twenty dollars
per acre will get a bargain. The
JOHN S. HUNTER PROPERTY
is good, as you can judge by looking
at the crops that have been made on
it this year. Besides, it is a pretty
distance to this place, and will be the
very place for so me bod 3' who wants to
get close to, but not into, town. The
JOHN A. LONG LANDS
are rated as first class, if not higher.
This properly has been divided, and
the propotion of cleared land and
forest have beer, carefully attended to.
Here is the chance for the man who
wants to buy a piece of land for a
small farm. lie cannot do better in
Jackson county. For investment it
cannot be surpassed. Money put
into it will bring a yield of twenty-five
per cent, in three years, if not sooner.
These lands are worth now ten to
fifteen dollars per acre, but will not
average it at a public sale for cash. The
W. D. SMITH LANDS
need no praise from iis. They are near
Nicholson, in Newtown District, in a
country that is noted for its rich
bottoms and strong uplands. The
WATSON HOMESTEAD,
situated in this place, is good property,
and parties may secure a bargain by
purchasing it. The
F. M. IIOLLIDAY LANDS
arc well known as the best cotton
lands in the county, and the late owner
made lots of money out of them, and
still left them in good condition.* The
DALTON PLACE
is small, but contains some first-class
land, and is a good little place.
Sheriff McElhaunon proposes to sell
some land, but we don’t say that he
will until we see him do it. lie has
some good property advertised. The
Johnson place is one of the best farms
on the Oconee river, and makes truck
right along. We do not know any
thing about the Saul’s place, but it is
located in a good section of the county.
Wc are not acquainted with the Eads
tract, but suppose it is good. The
Thurmond land is good. Parties who
are seeking homes, or desire to invest
money, cannot do better than to come
to town on the first Tuesday in next
mouth and watch the proceedings.
There will be more than one bargain
sold on that da}'.

Ga., WILL PAY YOU THE HIGHEST

It Pays to Advertise.
The man that says advertising don't
pay makes an assertion that he cannot
prove. For instance, several months
ago Dr. Reinhardt lost his milch cow,
and after hunting for her and giving
her up for lost, he bethought himself
of using the Herald to assist him, so
he dropped in an “ ad” to the effect
that his cow was gone. We, in the
honesty of our heart, told him to be of
good cheer, that he would soon be
churning milk from that very cow ;
that the notice in the Herald would
bring her up to his front door in a few
days. But it did not. Days passed
on, and the same sad frown of utter
despair, caused, no doubt, by drinking
coffee without cream in it, still marked
the Doctor's hitherto genial face.
While we did not lose our faith and
backslide on advertising, yet wc must
admit that it was sorely tried. The
matter remained in this condition until
Court week, when the Doctor was in
formed that his long lost cow, or one
answering the discription published,
had been seen away down on Sandy
Creek, in Newtown District, some two
or three weeks before. The Doctor
went down to investigate, and we were
happy over the prospective result.
The fates, however, decreed otherwise,
and the Doctor returned from a thirty
miles ride in no happy frame of mind.
Especially was he vexed that the
advertisement had caused him the ride
with such bare results. He was mad
with it because it would not find his
cow- and because it found the wrong
cow. Four thing; wc commenced
feeling real sorry ourselves, as it
looked as if it would result in requests
for the Doctor to come and look at
every lost cow in the county. The
matter rested in this condition until
about three weeks ago, when Mr.
\V. 11. Harrison, who lives near
Thompson's Mills’ between this place
and Flowery Branch, was telling Dr.
Reinhardt about a cow that he had
lost, and the Doctor felt authorized,
from the amount of experience he had
gained as a cow loser, to console with
Mr. Harrison, which he did, and
advised him to .advertise in the
Herald for his cow. He evidently
thought that if Mr. Harrison would
advertise for his cow it would at least
divide the burden of going over the
county examining stray stock, and
the}' could go into partnership in the
business. Mr. Harrison took him at
his word. The Herald announced in
its next issue the fact that Mr. Har
rison had lost a cow, and a notification
was soon sent to him that his cow was
roving around a gentleman’s fields in
Chandler’s District, and had been
there for sometime, but they did not
know who it belonged to until it was
advertised. Mr. Harrison went down
and got his cow, and, what is most
remarkable, found Dr. Reinhardt's
also, and, from the best information,
the two had met up early in their
wanderings and remained together,
and had congregated around them a
lot of stray yearlings, forming a gang
of cow robbers that made their living
by breaking into the neighbors’ corn
fields.
o’Farrell Bros. & Cos, have now on
hand a fine stock of fancy and plain
dress goods, notions, &c., which they
offer cheap.

A Talented Lady’s Views.
Mrs. 0. F. Fleming, State Lecturer
of Missouri, and also an artist of rare
merit, whose picture of Adelaide Neil
son is pronounced by the press to be
the most beautiful portrait in the
United States, in a recent letter said :
“I have been troubled with kidney
disease since %y childhood, and it
finally culminated in chronic catarrh of
the bladder. It would be impossible
for me to describe how much I have
suffered, and I bad abandoned all hope
of ever being cured. I was, however,
recommended to try Warner's Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure, and it has
done me more good than the combin
ed skillof all theph3 T siciansl have ever
tried duing my entire life.” Such tcoti
mony is beyond question, and proves
the value to all ladies of the remedy
it advocates.
Don’t forget O’Farrell Bros. & Cos.
sell dress goods at 10 cents per yard.
Don’t forget O’Farrell Bros. & Cos.
have a complete assortment of dress
goods, hats, boots and sdioe3. Above
all, don’t forget that O'Farrell Bros.
& Cos. are the headquarters for flour,
bacon, lard, coffees, sugars, teas, and
anything in the grocery line.
Personal Mention.
Charley Mason has been discours
ing after the following style to. the
writing man of the Athens Chronicle :
“We had a conversation with Mr.
Charley Mason, of Jackson count}', a
few days since, who is known to many
of our citizens. Though he has been
a constant tobacco chewer since child
hood, he is now in his seventy-eighth
year, and has never had a day's sick
ness in his life. He weighs one
hundred and eighty-five pound--, and
looks as if he would live to see another
generation pass away."

will find a complete assortment of
these goods at living prices.

agree that most diseases are caused by
disordered Kidneys or Liver. If, there
fore, the Kidneys and Liver are kept in
perfect order, perfect health will be the re
sult. This truth has only been known a
short time and for years people suffered
great agony without being able to find re

treatment of these troubles. Made from
a simple tropical leaf of rare value, it con

It revolves continually while in operation,
so that turf, stones, corn huts, or any oth
