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.

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.
