We hear of one that is to be put up on the Athens road. £ &’\Somc of our young people are preparing some Christmas fun. We suppose they will give our readers due notice of it. P#* Tax Collector Sailers had a big crowd around him all day Tuesday. We presume that lie took in over a thousand dollars. tlTMarried, at the residence of the bride's mother, Mrs. Easter Nunn, by W. B. Patrick, Kq., Mr. W. li. I vie and Miss Lzzie Nunn, all of this county. engine of the Gainesville & Jefferson railroad, now on the track at Gainesville, has been named “ A. D.

Jefferson & Southern Railroad with about forty hands. Sip" We hear that it is thought that the burning of Hood’s gin was the work of an incendiary. If Mr, Hood sets his head to catch the persons who did the fiendish act he will be very apt to succeed. LiFTJncle Lem Howard had bad luck week before last with one of Gove Hunter's cows. It got into Uncle Lem's crib, and, to use his expression, he killed “ the danged old heifer,” and he had to pay for her. learn thut sometime last week a fire broke out in Flowery Branch and burnt up three stores, one hotel, one bar-room and one confec tionery. Wc have not been able to obtain an)* of the particulars. [ Chronicle : “Ex State Senator G. E. Deadwyler, one of Jack son county’s most prominent farmers, killed six this year’s pigs, on Thanks giving day, averaging in weight from 256 to 315 pounds. Who can beat it V' UlPThat old cow of Dr. Reinhardt’s has strayed off again. Doc says he has sold her half a dozen times, but he can never deliver her to the buyer, as she is always out of place. We advise her to keep away from Lem Howard’s corn crib. friend Robertson, the marble dealer of Athens, is doing some fine work for citizens of this county. We had the pleasure of looking at some of it last week, and can say that it was perfect in every respect. Persons desiring monuments and toombstones can not buy in any other market as cheap as they can from him. was a rumor afloat here on last sale day that a man living in the upper part of this county got knocked in the head while returning irom Gainesville, where he had been to sell a load ot cotton. It was sup posed that it was an attempt to rob him, but we did not learn whether or not the attempt was successful. crops of Jackson county are good, and our people can now spend a little money profitably at Davis’ Premium Gallery, in Athens, by having photographs made of them selves and famdies. Everybody knows that the best [dace in Georgia for fine pictures is at Davis’, and our homes should be ornamented with his fine portraits, and there is nothing more acceptable or pleasing for a holiday g'ft than a flue iikaess of a friend or relative. ClPDon’t you think if our city parents were blindfolded and led up the street between Mrs. Turner's and Mrs. Long's lots they would stand to he shod ? By the way*, a distinguished visitor to our town, noticing that street, remarked that “he though it very strange that one of the principal approaches to our Institute should be in a worse condition than any other street in the village.” SlP’The following officers were elected to govern Unit3 r Lodge, No. 30. F. & A. M., for the next Masonic year: If. W. Bell. W. M.; A. E. Brooks. S. W.; T. 11. Niblack. J. W.; W. A. Worsham. S. D. ; W. A. Watson, J. I>.; F. L. Pendergrass, Secretary ; J. E. Randolph, Treasurer; C. T. Storey, Tyler; J. L. Williamson, S. Steward ; J. C. McCoy*. J. Steward ; J. P. Williamson, Chaplain. Wednesday morning we noticed some workmen cutting down a tree at the point where the new street between Col. Pike's and the Court House intersects the Gainesville road. We at once concluded that the city fathers had commenced the new street, and were disposed to rejoice over the promptness displayed by our nice new Council, but our rejoicing was turned to disgust when we learned that they* were just cutting that tree down be cause the Mayor had a spite against it. For further particulars, apply to Jack Storey. Prohibition. For over a year past there has been quite a temperance boom in this coun ty, the effects of which most every body could have noticed. But we are afraid that our county is going to take a backset in this matter that will put her back on the old plane. It is well known that the Ordinary has been (under recommendation of a Grand Jury) for sonic months past refusing fo grant any county license to retail liquor unless the District has voted upon the matter. This action has re sulted in the disappearance of the country bar-room almost entirely*, and there are but fesv Districts in the county, that have voted upori the ques tion, that have not decided to have no bar-rooms within their hounds. The liquor men have, however, discovered a way to evade the State laws in a most effective way, and the result is that whisky is now sold in almost every* District in the county*. The way it is done is to take out a license from the United States Revenue De partment to sell by the gallon, and not by retail, and in this way evade the State and county laws upon the subject. llow it is that the United States’ license can protect and render ineffec i live the State laws vve cannot under stand. yet it is that wav. Of course, it is claimed that all sales are not under a gallon, yet it is an easy mat ter to remain within the letter of the law and allow a buyer to have almost any amount he calls for. We are of the opinion that unless the sale can be entirely prohibited, it I. is useless to continue the half-way measures that arc now in force, and at the same time they accomplish noth ing. It would be better to license by retail and put the sellers under whole some restrictions. Hoschton. Wc call the attention of our readers to the fact that on the 21st iust. they will have an excellent opportunity of investing their surplus cash in real estate in the town of Hoschton, on the Gainesville & Jug Tavern railroad. Ilosch’s Store is well known in our county, and it is at this place, already a good trading point, where the new town has been located and laidolfinto streets and lots of suitable sizes for business and for residences. The location is a good one, and is well adapted for the purpose. The sur rounding country is composed of some of the best farming lands in Jackson count)*, and the citizens arc most all well ojjand make a plenty to do them. Lands are cheap, and every facility is offered the farmer. That this will be a thriving village in a few years none will doubt who have ever visited the country that it will have to support it. This Is a Progressive Age, And we are proud to sec so many of our people securing themselves and property against fire by having their roofs painted with W. J. McDonald's combined Fire and Water Proof Ce ment Paint, which will also preserve them from rot or decay. Our ener getic farmer, Tobe Duke, of this coun ty, is having his residence, barn, stables, crib, kitchen and smoke-house a.l painted with it this week. Others will do well to follow Tobe in this, as it is simple economy. Death of Miss Mattie Venable. On last Monday morning our citi zens were astonished at the announce ment of the death of the above named young lady, which occurred the night before. She had not been sick more than a week, and but few people in I town knew that she was ill. llcr death was caused from typhoid gastro i enteretis. She was buried on Wednes ; day morning. Personal Mention. Mr. G. W. Mabry moved in yester day. Dr. McElhannon lias returned lo his old friends. Mr. C. \V. Shackleford will move to town next year. Mrs. Turner will occupy the Mitchell house next year. Mr. George Merck is going to sell out and go to Texas. Miss Ashford, of Gainesville, was in the city this week. Dr. Pendergrass attended sale day over in Banks county. 0 Coon Daniel will spend the next twelve months on a farm. Lera Brown is collecting for several of the merchants of Muysville. Mrs. Andy Parks has been visiting Mrs. J. E. Randolph this week. Bill Waddle is seriously ill at bis home, up on the Carithers place. Prof. Coffin is over looking after the organs and pianos of this section. Col. Thurmond and Mr. Lamar Cobb, of Athens, were with us on sale day*. INIr. T. S. Sbankle has been serious ly alOicted with carbuncles on his hand. Mr. Andrew Parks lias moved from Gainesville back to his farm in this county. ’Tis said that Judge Pittuian is the best kind of a collector for railroad companies. Torn Shackleford is an old railroad man. lie used to run on the Western & Atlantic. Mr. Harvey Johnson will move out to the house on the Mitchell plantation now occupied by* Mr. Win. Roberts. The snake charmer at the Expos; tion proved to be an exceedingly in teresting personage to Mr. Bob Cheney, of the Grove. Mrs. W. C. Howard, Mrs. J. C. McCoy, Mrs. Nancy Harrison and family and Hill Randolph take in the Exposition this week. John Wilhite tolls us that lie lias caught several fat ’possums of late, and he thinks there is a decided iin provement in the crop. Our new Methodist preacher f<i next year is Dr. 11. S. Bradley*, lie is a half brother of Col. Pike, of our town, ami is well known to most of our readers. Several of our friends called around last Monday and Tuesday and made glad our countenance by* settling up. We are still awaiting a call from several more. The most important personage that comes to our town is Mr. Blackstock, the railroad contractor. All gather around him to get news as to how his grading force is getting along. INIr. Ben Shirley, of Hart county, owns a house and lot in our town, and when it needs fixing he comes over and does the job himself. lie has just finished enclosing his lot with a good plank fence. The Laura City correspondent of the Walton News says : “ Miss Fannie Bush, of this place, put up 750 bottles of Mrs. Bush’s Burn Specific in one day last week, which will make her over S3OO, clear profit.” Brant Maxwell is becoming a first class horse jockey. lie attributes it to the fact that he docs business with Uncle Winn Worsham and his store is close to Mark Few’s livery stable. Both are regular horse men. Tom Niblack took an early start to the Exposition last Wednesday morn ing. He arrived in Harmony Grove at three o’clock and the train was due there about six. Wc guess he had a nice time standing around in the cold. The Mayor of Gainesville is a bachelor, and the road between Jeffer son and Gainesville is dull and dreary. Asa result, the aforesaid Ma)*or usually persuades some of his friends of the female persuasion to make the trip with him. We met Drew Roberts in town one day this week and asked him for an item for our paper. lie thought for a little while and then said that the only interesting piece of information that he possessed was that they con tinued to make whisky at Duke's still house. READ THIS! IT WILL SAVE TROUBLE and COSTI We speak now to all who owe us. We need what you owe us—let the amount be large or small. We must have it. We don’t want you to come up and tell ns that you have had to pay for a mule, sewing machine, or oruano. Wc have heard that long enough ; it don’t cause us to have any more mone)\ We have sent Stanley ; we have given you notice after notice that we wanted and needed m >noy. Watch out now. faik warning, we are going to send the Bailiff. If you will be sued, we can't help it. We must have what is due us. Pendergrass Bros. & Cos. Because it adds to Personal Beantv by restoring color and lustre to gray or faded hair, and is beneficial to the scalp, is why Parker’s Hair Balsam is such a popular dressing. HENDERSON WAREHOUSE CO., 'y.vv.'wvecvfi, & co., Cotton Factors. Liberal Advances on Cotton. ATHENS, GEORGIA. Public Days. FIRST MONDAY —ORDINARY'S COURT DAY. On last Monday Judge Bell organ ized his Court in proper order and transacted the following business : Letters of Administration were granted to Robert Green upon the estate of Caroline A. Colt, dee'd. Letters of Dismission were granted to J. C. Wheeler from the administra tion of the estate of D.rniel Wheeler, deceased. Letters of Guardianship was grant ed to Sarah A. White upon the pro perty of her son, George M bite. Leave to sell a portion of the real estate of Win, Porter, deceased, was granted to Julia Ann Porter, Execu trix of said deceased. The will of Adam Kemp was proba ted in common form and letters testa mentary issued to F. \Y. Marlow. The ease of Mrs. J ulia O. E. Roberts vs. Cynthia Long. Executrix of Calvin Long, dee’d, being a rule to require bond, was decided for the defendant. This case was hotly* contested, and consumed a good part of the day. TUESDAY —SALE DAY. Owing to the fact that we were de tained in our office, we could not get full particulars of all the sales that w*ere made, especially as to the parties buying. The Flournoy place, 2GO acres, was bought by Mr. 11. 11. Brock for sl,- 451.00. The Maley place, containing one hundred acres, sold for SGOO. The Hannah Croft land sold for seventy-eight dollars. Fifty-four acres, belonging to Cyn thia Park, sold for one hundred and eighty* dollars. The James B. Lvle home place was bought by* J. A. Lyle for $1,675. The land belonging to the Micager Williamson estate, 175 acres, was nought by J. P. Thompson for $6lO. The tract of land belonging to the estate of Ezekiel Boggs was bought by G. W. Brown and J. 11. Boggs for SI,OOO. The land of G. S. Duke was bought by Dr. Hugh Mitchell for S7OG. The John I. Parks place sold for S4OO. The land belonging to the Dalton estate brought $585. The lands of Milton Matthews sold as follows : The first place was bought by C. W. Matthews for $1,500. Lot No. 1 by J. M. Matthews for $845. Lot No. 2, $390. Lot No. 3, $405. Lot No. 4. $325. Davis tract, $535. This wound up the day's proceed ings. There was a marked difference in the price of the lands sold to what it was last sale day. While the land would not average quite as high in quality* as that sold last month, yet the price was not at all in proportion, and the price paid for some places last Tuesday* was remarkably cheap, and the most of the hind sold was at a great bargain. New Streets. , Wc notice that the city fathers have decided to open one. new street, but have postponed action in regard to the balance. We have heard of anoth er proposition that seems to meet with general favor from those most inter ested. It is to extend the street run ning from the Methodist church on between the Duster and Callahan lots out in the direction of the railroad ; also to extend the street between the Kelly and Thurmond lots on to the railroad. Both extensions would be beneficial, and would put several good building lots into good position, and we would commend the changes to the consideration of the Council. But we see that there is no disposition upon their part to straighten Hill street. This should be done by all means, as it, would materially add to that part of the town in many ways. 3t will be absolutely necessary to widen this street, and it will take big money to do it as it now stands, and when you get it done it will not look like any thing, but if it is straightened it can be made wide enough and at the same time make a good appearance. Methodist Conference. Below we give the list of appoint ments for this District. We cannot give them all, as it would occupy too much space: Elherton District.—W. D. Ander son, P.

Editor: —The State Peniten tiary of Tennessee was burned this evening. I don't know how the fire originated. Nothing except the front building and tiic lumber without the walls was saved. It was reported that some few convicts escaped. I don’t think any of the inmates suffer ed from the flames, except perhaps a very severe flight while waiting for the guard to grant them exit. There were about 700 convicts and but few guards. The ordinary Georgia con vict would have spent Christmas in the woods with such an opportunity afforded them. This will force Ten nessee to add to her already great in debtedness. There is much sickness here. Tv? • to piioid fever principally. The witty darky, alluding to the fire, says, “ tne whole of our end of town is burning up. The Jackson boys are looking well. Mr. Jordan, of Harmony Grove, is attending the Dental College here. By request, I ask you to announce that A. and 8., having received every thing in llie way of mail from a shingle to a postal, propose a rest. The young gentlemen have enjoyed the varied correspondence very much, but, owing to scarcity of means and the high price of board, are constrain ed to desist for a time at least. On rainy days any one can get 50 I cents to whistle “Mary had a little i lamb,” simply because it reminds the boys of home. Normal. Athens Chronicle: " Athens carried the palm for having the most original ' amateur dentist in the world. A cer tain carpenter of our city suffered j much from a decayed tooth. lie l ore | the pain for some time, but at last it was too much for him. While suffer ing untold agonies, he seized a pair of pinchers and attempted to draw the offending member ; but was so unfor tunate as to break the tooth. Know ing that his miseries would be increas ed in a ten fold ratio if matters re mained as they were, he, with a bit and brace, drii cd the remainder of the tooth from his mouth. For n any weeks lie lay critically ill from this operation, and avers he will never at tempt dentistry again.” mbm /©lotluTig for Men or Boys yj 1 eiiticr ready-made or made jjp THE TRADE l A lar'e and complete stock of BLANK BOOKS AND STATIONERY, LEDGERS.
