Mrs. M. K. Brown spent yesterday in Atlanta. J. H. Campbell returned from Allan ta yesterday evening. Clever Jake Menko, of the firm of L. Cohen A Co,, spent yesterday in the city. J. 11. Mott, of Goggansville, passed through yesterday on his way to Atlan tn. itev. Dr. li. K. Mc'Jall left yestorday morning for Sanderaville, where ho will preach tomorrow. Time goes by turns. At present the woxl hauler has vastly the advantage of tho ice dealer, in point of popularity. Now comes the time when tho man who turned over a new leaf turns it back again to look for something that ho foigot. To him who waits doth all things come saith tho poet. But it lias been our observation that in who hustles gets there first. Mrs. C- G. Mills gave a most pleasant supper last night iu honor of Miss Etta Meyers, of Atlanta, who is the guest of Miss Bessie Mills. W. F. Gay, of Gay, Meiriwether county, was iu the city yesterday enquir ing tho market price for cotton, of w hich he still has some forty five bales. A deaf and dumb couplo were in the city yesterday begging aid to get to Washington, where tho man expects to get a patent on lomo sort of audiphoue. An old bachelor says: “Its all non sense to pretend that love is blind, I never knew a mau in love that did not see ten times ns much in his sweetheart ns I did. The Central up train yesterday mar’ niug was nu hour late, caused by a wreck on tho Savannah division, and making the down train fifteen minutes late. Judge Jas. S. Boynton returned from tho session of Upson Superior Court yesterday evening and stated that tho business of the term was mostly com pleied in good shape. There is something quite consoling in tho thought that over the evergieen shore one will not encounter the roam ing minstrel, the book agent, the .iusur unco agent, or the hand organ grinder. Itev. C. Dowe returned lost night from a three weexs visit to his relatives iu New Orleans, and reports a good time and his people all well. He is looking well and we may look for the old time effective services tomorrow. Tho latest railroad tumor is to the effect that the East Tennessee system has bought out the Central system. The rumor probably originated in the J fact that the Central has lately been running on East Tennessee time- that is, on no particular time at all. There will be a total eclipse of the rnoou to night. If the cveniug is clear the spectacle will be an interesting one. The moon will rise totally eclipsed at •1 :4. r > p. u)., and will leave the shadow at 7:10. The eclipse will lie'visible in Griffin : let everybody watch it.

At all The Heathen Chinee now in the city are said to have been very impudent to the ladies in charge of the entertain incut which they have been conducting iu such an absurd manner at Patterson's Hall. Possibly they have not read of the fate of the Halvatioo Army. State Senator Eugene S. Ives, of New Y’ork city, is a handsome young man with u pink complexion. He recently startled the Albany statesman by ap pearing with a red tinted shirt front set oft by a purple uecktie. Somebody spoke of him as “tha Italian sunset from the Eleventh district. There will be a total eclipse of tho moon this evening, beginning before snndown and lasting until after dark. The o eclipses show tho shape and shadow of our earth, painted, as it wore, on the surfm-* • f the moon, aud there fore the sight t ilways a matter of in tercst. Prepa your smoked gloss and take it in. Sol. G a. Womack passed through here yesterday evenieg ou his return from Upson Superior Court. Col Worn ack wns a witness to the assassination of Julius Caesar iu Atlanta last Saturday night, ami we really thought that he would bring iu a true bill this term ; but to our astonishment and horror, he confessed, as the train moved out, that he was really i i db j, if not in col lusiou with the oators. . It is not good policy, says uu ex change, to worry over nnplesant mat ters that are unavoidable, whether of a social or bnsiuess nature. We are plac ed ou this terrestial sphere to fake life as it comes, for we arc simply the crca tures of circumstances, and cannot con trol surround If we are sick, we mnst suffer ; asiness is not prosper ous, wo must ' ad be content; if we have enemies who seek to disparage us, we should confidently wait for tho com plete justification that comes to all who endeavor to do their duty. Tho Baptist reunion on Thursday night was a most enjoyable affair, with music and the most pleasant social fea hires. In spite of the other entertain meats goiug on, it was largely attended and such was its success that it will be made a frequent feature bereaf er. The intention now is to floor the basement— costing only about $75—and holding many entertainments there that could not well be held iu tho audience room. The News believes in anything that will briug church and people closer togeth er, and is heartily in favor of the pro ject. “Is there no balm iu Gilead? Is there no physician there?” Thanks to Dr. Pierce, there is a balm in his “Golden Medical Discovery”—s health, “balm for every wound” to from colds, coughs, consumption, bron chitis, and all chronic, blood and liver affections.
