Valdosta News: On Lofty Heights, No one passes while work is in operation on tbe shaft, says a Washington letter, tbat hundreds of ojtua and 4*ld glasses are not used ip eagerly watching the work men on tbe top, who, even with the .aid of. powerful glasses, look scarcely larger than huge files crawling slowly about. “As the shaft grows higher now,” said Col. Casey, “my workmen are obliged to use greater care. They are not sailors, and although most of them are, to some extent, growing ac customed to working at such a •great height, tboy, unlike the sail, or, must work without anything to cling to for security. A single false step, a alight stumble, a little faintness or dizziness, would be apt to lcavo nothing tbat in tbe least resembled a human being, whether tbe full was down tbo shaft or at the ground outside. As they go higher they grow more carotul, I notice, instead of becom ing used to and careless of their danger. For this reason I antici pate tbat each of the upper courses which arc so much smaller in hor izontal surface, will take as much time to piaco in position as those at the base of the cap. Besides this lesson, as the working space grows smaller, fewer men can be employed on the top. Bui it will be finished long before tho time fixed upon for Ihe dedication.

OLD ESTABLISHED MERCANTILE HOUSES, WHOSE 80LVENUY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOUNDED ON INDE8TRUCTABLE ROCKS OP UNLIMITED CAPATAL AND UNQUESTIONABLE CREDIT, Tottered and Fell in a Day! Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing manufacturers who had made up numerous stocks from materi als bought on credit. These manufacturers placed their faith on lively and profitable September trade, absolutely relying on it for funds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given for piece goods, but the trade did not come, the continuous warm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there was nothing left for them to do but to fail and turn their goods over to an Assignee. It was bad for them, but it is in your power to make it good for you, for, as usual, when good goods are to be sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the fact that we were already prepared with a stock of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Boys, Chil drens and^Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from 30 to 60 per cent, of the actual value. Promptly at 8 o’clock These Purchases will be Put on Sale and itgwill be to the interest of every one in this city or country to be on hand, for at the prices we propose selling these goods you were never offered them in the history of the dry goods, clothing, boot and shoe trade.
