A new era of prosperity seem* to have struck Oglethorpo of late. There is more building going on here now than at any time since the war. Improvements loom up on all sides, and a spirit of en terprise pervade* th© air all around.— Macon County Citizen. Among other things he said: “Ire gard not the fulminating fury of the whiskey-bloated and red-mouthed dem< agogues who stand up in legislative halls or elsewhere to denounce me. ItAIN-MAKINO EXPERIMENT*. General Dyrenforth has- returned to Washington after his first rain-making expedition, and he seems to he in a very seT-satisfied state of mind He finds that the newspapers have suddenly made him famous, and he evidently believe* that there la a mure enduring f midst ion for bi. fame than baa generally been represented. . “After Ibe ex|>erience In Texas," he uyi, “I think tile venture unquestionably promise, success." All tbo natural conditions were opposed to the work, apd much time was lost in making preparations, in the face of un expected obstacles for this novel lino of experiments. It is stated that only half of thespproprlation of #7,000 lias been expended, which indicates that artificial rain-making need not be a very expen sive operation.” The modus operand! of General Dyren- forth's experiments are not generaily understood. lie carried with him sixty (>allooD«,cach about ten feet in diameter when expanded, a hundred kites about ten feet tali, a carload of wooden mor tars for tiring bombs, many thousands of pounds of explosives and electrical appliances foi tiring them. The balloons and kites were held in position by double wires, which also served to fire the gases contained in (he balloons and the explosives attached to the tails of the kites. The balloons were tilled with oxygen ' and hydrogen, which were caused to eomblue by an electric spark, producing a tcrriiic explosion. When ever the general was ready for au as sault on lire cloudless skies numerous balloons and kites were sent up and bombs tired within a short space of time so as to simulate a natural thunder storm. • Most of the experiments were made at times when the baroraoter and the cow boys’ predictions indicated fair weather. General Dyrenforth has not yet reported the actual results of all the experiments, but ho claims to have produced the first rain in three yean that was sufficient to make grass grow, and also to bar. caused the tint dew ever observed in that re gion. Enlarging on the results of his work ho says: “1 am satisfied that it Is only a qnes tlon of Ume when we shall transform these arid plain* Into wet regions. The operation should be carried out by the government, and some statutory meas ures adopted to prevent everybody bringing on rain to please binuelf. I teg ular stations should be established, and In accordance with providential Intent rain be caused to fall on the just end the unjust alike.”—Tlmea-Unlon. Govehmiii Xoiituex has vetoed an other bill, this time a local one alTect ing Laurens county. The governor has on his war paint, and the silly bill-ies of Madison will nut have public .eli.iola I the legislature should look out for ju*t yet. but she will have as good pri vale schools as can be found anywhere.

The Presbyterian bell is now used for nearly everything in Athens. It is used for preaching, prayer meetings, funer- sis. Sunday-schools and tire alarms. Now, we would ask, if it was tolling for a funeral and a lire alarm waa turned on which would take the preference and how wuhld the people know about it. It is not often that one sees a seven legged cow, such ss is now In Athens, but more rarely still are we treated to the sight of an abaolutely white calf. There is a gentleman living in Athens who owns a calf, born on September 17, and having not a single colored hair upon it. Microscopic examination proved It to be absolutely white.

When the gov. ernor surveys the Alliance rot coming before him misse,tiled laws, he seizes Ills big double-action veto pen, and in the language of Webster Flannagan says: “What are we here for?” and tho head falls into the executive waste basket. Let the good work go on. ALLENS’ 11 408Jackson st TO THE LADIES! Have you bought your dresses for this season?

Boston la headquarters for old maids, there being something like thirty thou sand more women than men In Massa chusetts; and so the Boston papers are looking with some degree of solicitude to the Georgia legislature to promote matrimony, to the end that the example of the Empire Stote of the South may become so far contagious as to ren der matrimony contagious all over the land, and especially In Massachusetts. What Is understood as a joke by our home people looks like serious business to the Bostonians, as witness the fol lowing: It looks aa if tho bill which haa Intro* duced in the Uoorgia legislature, Impos ing a tax of tweuty-livo dollars per an num upon every bachelor over thirty yeari old, and raising the tax twenty- live dollars for every additional live year* of age, was likely to become a law It has been favorably reported eipon by the committee on hygiene and aanitation —why It was leferred to that committee is not fully explained—and there is a strong sentiment in the legislature in favor of its passage. Of course the bachelors denounce it as clan legislation, hut tills is au objection which does uut hold against a mass of other legislation. Georgia bachelors will do well to begin looking up helpmeets. “It is not good for mau to he irlonc.” The interrupted marriage that was attempted on Thursday by a young man of Savannah, and a young laay of this city, has been the talk of the town for two days. It caused every minister to be asked if be was the one who was en gaged for this service. All of them deny It, but one minister was frank enough to acknowledge that be officiated at such a marriage, for whlob he received a fee of thirty cents.—Albany News and Adver tiser.

A negro thief has worked the city and came out a long ways ahead, lie Drat went to James Uarbln with an order and got a huge ham and a dollar's worth of lard. Not satisfied with this he went to John Hardeman's, pried up.the window, stole a watch, four dresses and a black coat. He next went to Webb & Craw ford's and got three dollars' worth o( goods and ordered a barrel of flour sent to Dr. Eph Brumby. The goods were charged to Dr. Brumby and when the flour was aent to bis house on Pulaski street, it was discovered that no one bad ordered It and that the thief had been working the city. The police are on bis track and will catoh him If he stays In the city.—Athena Dedger. Mr. Charles Etheridge, who baa been working at W. F. Dorsey A Co.’s furni ture store, is the missing man. He was token sick last Saturday, and went to bit room or boarding bouse, and since that time nothing has been heard of him. He Is a very quiet man and has nothing to say or do with any one on the streets. He U not addicted to the use of whiskey, and It la feared that he baa been foully dealt with. Hit brother from Augusta Is in the city and Is using every effort to get some Information of his whereabouts, but up to this time has heard nothing. Mr. Etheridge has only been at work a short while with Dorsey & Co., and they can't think that he has left the city.—Jacksonville Timcs-l'nion. We will open Mon day and Tuesday next 20doz.

That the Mormon contingent is solid on the stars andAtripes, In spite of the Edmunds anti-polygamy law, and the general disposition of the monogamous Gentile to crowd him out of the hallowed shadows of tho Mormon Joas-bouse on the borders of S^t Lake, la indicated by this patriotic futminatlon from the Salt Lake Tribune: *lf, of old, to be called a Roman citixen was greater than to be called a king, what ought it to be in these modern days to be a citizen of the United States?

Tiik royalists of Franco are so angry with the po|>e for having come to term* with the Freneli republic, that the Count of Paris, tho Orleanist claim ant of the throne, haa withdrawn the subsidy that lias been annually paid by him to tho head of tho Catholic ehuicli. His Holiness i» one of the shrewdest diplomats in Europe; and he recognizes the fact that the republic of France baa conic to stay, and that lie is wasting time fooling with a few royalist* and pretenders to a visionary Freneli throne.
