FLATTERING PROSPECTS.
Among the Good Crops and Good
Folks of Flat Shoals.
Flat Shoals, Ga., June 5. —There
was a small burning on last Wednes
day, destroying a tenant hoose on
the Freeman date. The hoose was
occupied by negro named Herod
Smith, a very good negro, who lost
everythi; g La possesssed in the
world. Ho did not save anything,
as they were all oft in the field at
work when the fire was discovered,
and it was too far gone then. The
old negro, who has keen a faithful
servant, has general sympathy in his
misfortnne.
We had good r-?<.s the last few
looking very flattering, except wheat,
which has been badly damaged by
rust. It is the opinion of oar best
farmers that wheat Las been cat off
one half in this section by tie rust.
Oats are pr: m ; 3ing, the late rains
have been tL .taking of them, and
if not damag. • trther there will be
a good crop made.
Plum season is now on hand, and
a very good crop is reported. Peach
68 are scarce in this section; at a fair
estimate there is not more than fif
teen per cent, of a crop. Apples will
make about sixty-five per cent, of a
crop. There will be bat little peach
brandy made this year, and I do not
know what will be done about it.
We notice there is a little improve
ment going od at the Shoals, Messrs.
Hartnett and Freeman are having a
new warehouse built for the purpose
of storing the unadulterated corn
juice that they make.
Spring chickens are getting ripe
abd being pullet regardless of color.
It is rumored that there will
be a wedding in Concord soon, one
of the contracting parties being a
widower doing business iD southwest

D. N. Freeman is spending a few
days in the Gate City.
H. B. Neal returned home last Fri
day from a pleasant visit to friends
in Griffin. Mr. Neal says the happi
est hours of bis life were spent at
Col. and Mrs. E. W. Hammond‘s.
He says be will put the Griffin peo
pie against the world for hospitality.
C. G. Kenney, who has just return
ed from the same place, says it re
minds him of the happy days of old
Kentucky and will always share with
them in his memory.
Capt. W. H. Hartnett returned
