W- Lee, of Dover, this county, came up yesterday and entered Prof. Qiiilliau’s school. This school now has It fly-eight pupils, and only two more can be accommodated Miss Lou Bragan returned home from A mericus yesterday. Messrs Durham and Simmons, merchants at Leary, were in our city yesterday. We have several severe cates of sickness among the whites in this vicinity, and have hid several deaths among the colored people recently. Mrs. Willie Carver left to-day on a visit to Atlanta, Oxford and Covington. smitiiTulV: annul. SMiTuvittE, Sept 16 Mr. W. W. Thompson presented us with the first Keiffcr Hybrid pear that has been raised in the state. Jt is a perfect specimen and weighs six- teen ounces. The “last run’’ of watermelons are being offered in our town now, They appear to be so full of chilis that they can scarcely keep still. Quite a novel sight was to be seen on our streets to-day.

Hudson with the assistance of another aspirant, who is afraid to make the venture (or-some one else), I think it needs a reply, especially in regard to Mr. Hudson’s satisfactory record in the legislature to bis constitu ents. Mr. Hudson was elected upon promises to bis constituents, of whom I am one, to pass a certain act which he claims he was un able to accomplish. This don’t look like he had any influence or much ability, or he certainly coaid hsvo put through a local act con cerning nono but bis own county. The truth of the matter is Mr. Hudson introduced his bill and let it go by himself. This is the only record that I have ever beard of his making in the legislature and it has utterly failed to give satis faction to bis constituents or to make them proud of him as a rep resentative. Voter. Republican Deserters. Washington, Sept. 16 Hamil ton Pish, Gen. B. H. Bristow, and General Francis Walker have announced their determination to support Cleveland and Hendricks. Benjamin H. Bristow was secretary of the treasury, while Mr. Fish was at the bead of Grant’s cabinet, Francis Walker, ohief of the cen- women perched upon a bale of cot'-* SUB bureau. It will be their first . sicksov, Msi,'ia ton, which they threw off at our warehouse and sold, and supplied themselves with all the goods needed and wended their way slow ly home. They live on rente-1 land in Sumter county, about eight miles above here. Thoy say they will make five bales ol cotton and plenty of corn, potatoes, etc. They have nojrelatlves,doing all the work themselves. This certainly should prove an example for our colored people. Mr. John T. Furgersou, one of Lee's most substantial citizens, in in town to-day. ARTESlAk* ALBANY* Albany, GA.,Scpt. 16—The cot ton crop of this section will bo about [Onc-half ol expectations in May aud June, though about two- thirds of an average coop; too much rain in July and none in Au gust. Other crops good. The Republicans last week nom inated the Hon. Ishmael Lonnon, the village blacksmith, for repre sentative. He will get largely leR. Not a white Republican attended the meeting. The Democrats will name the man next week. Considerable excitement in tho city caused by several arrests last week of lour or five prominent col ored gents, supposed to be impli cated in the attempt to wreck tbs train on the evening of 21th, car rying tho military to Dawson, the particulars of which are familiar to the public. Several detectives, are here aud at work, aud are con fident they are on a hot trail. Look out for some startling news. Onr hotels are expecting a bon anza this fall and winter. Every roam in each has been engaged. So much for artesian water. Cotton is coming in rapidly, but our receipts will not exceed last year’s so far. Capt. Davia, tbo new president of the B. & W. road, baa taken charge and the public may look for a decided improvement in tbo near future. While Capt. Davit will of course have the interest of the road at heart only, he will not forget the Artesian City’s interest. Mr. E. C. Jones and family re turned from Amerious last week, where they have beenapending the summer, considerably improved, if Amerious is a sickly town. J. Blaine to Take tbs Slump. Bar Habbor, Me., Sept. 16.—Mr. Blaine left yesterday for a apeak, ing tour through the West, having been urged so to do by bis friends, who declare that nothing bnt bis magnetic pretence will save the cattaa from defeat In Ohio, Wlttoa- •In and Illinois. volo for any other than a republi can, they say, but they must vote ior him unless they choose not to vote at a<). The idea of support ing Biaino is not even considered. Gresham to Succeed Folgsr. Nkw York, September 15—The Sun says to day: “President Ar thur bas, it is aaid, settled the va cancy in the cabinet. He baa vir tually offered the post ol secretary of the treasury to Gen. Gresham. The latter is willing to take tbe plaeo. Gresham’s transfer will probably make Frank Hatton post master-general, as it is understood that tbe President is anxious to re ward Hatton especially well for bis good work at Chicago.” Big Balloting. Edkn, Ga., September 16.—Tbo convention of the first (Savannah) Senatorial district convened here yesterday, and up to tbe time of adjournment last night five hun dred and fllty-six ballot* had been taken withont choice. The dead lock is caused by olaims under the rotation aystem, Bryan aud Effing ham oiaiming tbe right to tbe can didate, while Chatham is holding to her candidate.
