AMUSEMENTS.
SOME OF THE THINGS WHICH WILL
BE ENJOYED.
Wtamt A martens People Will Hare In the
War OC Sport and Pleasure—A Base Ball
Mine to Be Organised — Tennis to
Flared Also.
The boys will play bass ball to-mor-
tow afternoon. They have been play
ing some during the past week, but the
first regular meeting will take place to
morrow afternoon at 4 o'clock.
If you are interested In the national
game, don’t fall to be out.
A number have already signified their
IntenUon of being on hand, and the
meeting Is bound to be a success. Amer-
leus wants a team, and has the material
to raise one as good as can be found.
The coming months will be dull without
some amusement of this kind which all
can enjoy, and to-morrow the initiatory
steps will be taken in osganizing a nine.
The players themselues are anxious
for the fray, and, with all others, are
deeply interested in organizing a team.
So It may be stated in ndvance that if
any city has a nine which she thinks is
superior, just let Americus be challenged
and their prido will fall.
We are certainly going to see the na
tional game played here this spring and
summer, and some good games too.
Don’t fail to be out at Fnrlow lawn to
morrow afternoon.
there Is a good deal of talk of an outdoor
festival to last fgr a week, and to be
given for the benefit of one of our In-
stitutlons. This will possess *many
especial attraction, and If arrangements
are perfcotcd, will be great.
So It will be seen that Americus will
see much enjoyment during the spring
and summer,and in spite of the fact that
Americus is not generally looked upon
as a summer resort, the people will have
much more pleasure here than will bo
found at other places.
PERSONALS.
We are also going to see n great deal
of tennis played tho coming season. Wo
have a great many good players hero,
and as has been stated in Tiie Timks-
- Kecobobii, a club lias been organized.
Two courts will bo laid olf by the club,
and the games will begin sometime this
week or next.
Besides these courts there will be a
number of others. Several have signified
their intention of purchasing sets and
laying off courts, and during the coming
season the musical twang of the racket
will be mingled with the dead thump of
the bat and ball.
Tennis is one of the most health-giv
ing games to be found, and the amount
of exercise in it is enormous. It is the
best game which ladies can play, and
Americus’ daughters will soon be
largely participating.
The opera season being over, and it
being late for donees, a greater part of
the amusement of both young and old
people will be extracted from outdoor
affairs. Besides the games above men
tioned, wnlcb will contribute to the
pleasure of alL other means of enjoy
ment will be sought, welch have net yet
been definitely arranged.

SECESSION.
How Georgia Went Oat or the Union In
ltMIl—Tho Resolution of Hon. E.
A. Nlsbot.of BlbV—Who Voted
For it and Who Did Not.
Every one should use P. P. P. because
at this season nearly every one needs a
good medicine to purify, vitalize and en
rich the blood.
Thirty years ago, on January 18th,
Georgia went out of the Union and in
to war; and now, after a generation, It
will be a matter of no small Interest to
read the proceedings of that memorable
assembly, and scan the names of those
whose voices were for war and whose
for peace.
The original clipping from the old
Millodgeville Federal Union—Extra, of
January 18, 1801, preserved by the late
Mrs. Howell Cobb serves os the copy
from which the subjoined Is taken.
Few people now realize that the vote
was so close that a change of 18 votes
out of 205 would have kept Georgia in
the Union; but so It was.
Among tho affirmative votes may bo
noted tho names of Francis S. Bartow,
Colquitt, Davenport of Sumter, Fort of
Stewart, Fnrlow of Sumter, Hansell,
Hilliard, Xisbet, Ferdinand Phinizy,
Styles and Robert Toombs.
But while the numbers were with the
aiiirmativo, most of Georgia's heavy
weights were on tho negative, and it is
cveu said that if Herschel V. Johnson
liad not been made tipsy at dinner, the
powerful speech ho began in the fore
noon which was a break-down after din
ner, would have resulted in tho conver
sion of enough secessionists to have
turned the tables. Among tho negatives
were Hiram P. Hell, Fain, Ben Hill, If,
V. Johnson, i.inton Stephens, Alex
Stephens, Hiram Warner, Wofford,
Trippo and Kenan.
Resolved, Tlitil In the opinion of this
'eutlon, It Is the duty or Georgia to secede
from the present Union, and to co-operate
with such of the other Stales as have or shall
dothesame, for the purpose of forming
southern Confederation upon the basis of
the Constitution ofihe United States.
Resolved, That a committee of 17 heap
pointed by the chair to report an Ordinance
toaasert the right and fulfil the obligation of
the State of Georgia to accede from the
Union.
After considerable discussion tile
the vote was taken on the resolutions of
