Glcssner was ho happy over Cleveland's election that he painted the outside of his paper red two or tbreo days after the election. Bro. Glessner led Clinton a little too soon. If he had remained here till now there is no doubt but that he would have the pleasure of sign ing P. M. after his name when Cleveland takes possession of the White House. However, we pre sume he is making money in Americus, Georgia, for he is now printing n daily paper.

Griffin Now., Nov. 35. ~9 Last night tho Golden troupe played for the first time on Griffin hoards, the play being the success ful comedy drama of “Tho Planter’s Wifo.” The play is an interesting one, and it was admirably render- cd^the characters being well sus tained throughout. Bella Golden ’jiti “Edith Gray,” was especially charming and realistic, and was .frequently applauded, while Martin Golden ns tho hero could not be excelled. The troupe-is a full one, its castes are well made and its en. tortainment excellent. The band is the best that we havo ever hoard in G4lff)b,ihd-the charming over tures of tho orchestra before the play and between the aots was not tho least charming ieaturo of the occasion. Altogether the good sized audience present passed a most pleasant evening aud were enthusiastic in their praises, and the indications are that the troupe will have a still larger attendance to night, which closes their en gagement. A different play will be presented and everybody should embrace -this opportunity to ecc To Drainesville, in Marion coun ty, formerly known a» Poieam Trot and Jacksonville, belongs the ribbon for the beat colt show ever held in the state, Last Tuesday was the day set aside for the exhibit of fine colte. It had been advertised for several weeks in the Wzekly Recorder, and created quite a stir among the farmers and colt raisers of this sec tion. All day Monday the colt* began to com* in, and when the hour arrived on Tuesday for the exhibition it found forty-one colta as contestants for favors, thirty-six being for the money prizes and five for ribbon. The judges selected were Judge Harper Black, ct Snmter, and Messrs. Maddox and Stokes, of Buena Vieta. After a careful ex amination of the colts, the judges made the following awards: Best colt under six months, Robert Cranford; premium,$10.00. Best colt over six aud under twelve months, David Majors; prc. mium, $5.00. Best colt over one and under two years, J. S. McGarrab; premium, $5.00. Best colt over two And under threo years, W. L. Clements; pre mium, $5.60. Best colt over three and under lour years, Joe Crawford; premium, ribbon. The number of colts shown by each exhibitor were: Robert Craw' ford, nine; David Majors, five; J. S McGarrab, eleven; W. L. Clements, eleven; Joe Crawford, five. Mr. J. S. Shclice, of Taylor county, had on exhibition a fine three-year-old dapple grey stallion, which attract ed much attention. Judge Black says it waB the fin est display of colts lie has ever seen in tho state, and he has attended all the slate fairs and stock shows. In every respect the exhibition was a success, and the farmers of that community who got it up are to bo congratulated for thair enterprise. It must be a good country that can show so many fine colts, when so little attention has been paid to stock raising. the unvarying tbosa best sdi boards.

A Case of Poisoning. Last Monday Thoma3 Griffin, a colored man living near this city, told his wife to make him up tome corn bread to take with him to his work, he being employed on tho railroad at Andcrsonville. Hie wife, in order to make tho broad, got somo milk of a neighbor and tho bread was made. Ou Tuesday, while Griffin and a companion were eating the bread for lunch, they were taken violently ill, with all the symptoms of arsenical poison ing. They were removed to a house and the bread was laid upon a shelf. Some crumbs of the bread dropped upon the floor and woro picked up and eaten by a oouple of little chil- drea, who were soon also ill. When Griffin in n measure recovered, be became alarmed fur his family khawingtbat some of the bread was left at home. Arriving borne, he found all of his family sick except his wife, who never eats that kind of bread. One of the children has since died and the others are yet sick. The fourth quarterly meeting of this body woe held at New Hope church, In the sixteenth district, ou lost Saturday. A large con gregation was present, and all en joyed the meeting very much. The reports from the several district* weie encouraging, showing that despite serious urawbacks, the in terest in the work is not dead, but seems to be growing, and the pros pect is favorable. An excellent essay was read by Mr. J. J. Granberry, setting forth the good effects of early impres sions and learning, of which the Association by vote requested a copy for publication. A splendid dinner was prepared by the hospi table people of the community, and was very much enjoyed, especially by the visitors from town, who do not often sit down to as great and good a feast of fat things as was there provided. The afternoon session was chiefly given to discussion of experiences, difficultirs, helps, opportunities and prospects of the work, and was very interesting and encour aging. Short and pointed talks were made by Vice-President Wheatley, Rev. F. M. Lawrence Messrs. Black, Weakly, Glaze Hewett, Wilson, Johnson, and others. Singing was a special fea ture of the day, and led by Prof. Cheek, chorister of the Association, and assisted by Messrs. Walker, Dozier and others. It was a most enjoyable service, in which the congregation heartily entered. The Association selected Pleas ant Grove church, io the twenty eighth district, as the place of meeting in February next, and after a vote of thanks to the good people of the neighborhood for the generous entertainment given them adjourned with the benediction The meeting was a most profita ble one to all concerned, and there is no doubt that the Association though laboring under the difficul ties of the first year of organiza tion, is arousing an interest in its work aud is extending its field of labor aud usefulness. MeCorkle, McMiclieal and Mrs. Smith. Ellaville wae selected os the place for the next convention, un less some other community desires it. Meeting adjonrned until. Fri day before tho fourth Sunday in February next. The exercises were intermingled with tongs. The day passed prof itably and pleasantly, all being con vinced that county Sunday school associations are grand and noble organizations. J. A. Parks, President. C. R. McCrory, Secretary.
