It must be that the girls arc taking advantage of Leap Year. With sadness we record the death of Mr. Will Carver, whose danger- ous illness was mentioned in our Inst letter. He leaves n wife and several small children to mourn his loss. “God doeth all things for tho best’’ Cold rain and windy weather. March comes in like a lion; may it go ont like n lamb. Kaln comes very genll.v anil very sparingly, and the wells are still dry. Mr. Moses Baldwin, Jr., and Miss Crockett Sarlile were married on Sunday last, Rev. Mr. Twltty offi ciating. It is reported that anoth< er marriage is on docket, but tha contracting parties seem to be fear ful of s “leap in the dark," hence have net yet fhlly decided. 1 hay while the sun shines," we would suggest Tbe 8outh Georgia College hat been repainted, ana presents a very attractive appearance. l We hear that the funds will not be suflMeat for the whole building. Cannot tbe Mends of the College make it enough by contribution? The writer will enbscribe a "V." Who trill follow 7 Let ns hear? Many beautiful and attractive ladies are visiting Dawson. We delight to see them come, and It is complimentary to have them spend their time with ns. We hope nil will unite in making time pass pleasantly. Three parties in town in one night is no unusual occurrence. So many yonng people here that ene dwelling is not sufficient to give them promenading room. The public Friday evening ex- ercisca at the College will bo in the afternoon in place of night, much to tbo regret i f the yonng people of the town. They are said to be quite entertaining. All are cor dially invited tA lie present. Artesian water will soon gladden tbe hearts of the patient Dawson- ites. Never can it come in n more needful time. Hasten tbe day. The roses soon will bloom, and tbe sweet and bright college girls wilt gather them and the yellow jessamine and crown themselves “queens of May.” FIIOB AHUKHSOWILLL.

We are greatly in need of rain. We have not had a good rain since last June. Tue ground is getting too hard to plow or for corn to come up. Many think the early corn will have to be planted over. The ground was too dry with us to freeze deep enough to damage the com. T examined mine to-day and found it all O'. K With a little min and a few days of warm sunshine all will be up. There is bnt little guano bolng hauled compand with past years. Moat everybody going to ase it, bnt not so much, as the crops nn no uncertain of late yean. I' going to use ten thousand tons, but make it all bnt a few tons at bone, and I Bad it nneh better and cheaper than baying it. No improvement in my wheat. Am going to plant it in oottbn put under the wheat flfty bushels cotton need per non, and will add n hundred potinde of guano and try for n patch of tknoy cotton. Mr. C. A.

Mise Crockett 8aville returned from Dawson Sunday, but to the surprise ot her family had ebang ed her name from Seville to Bald* win. They loft Dawson Sunday morning about sun up, drove to the parsonage, were married, came np home, ate dinner with us and left for home in the evening. We hope your future may always bo as bright and happy as now. Tbe Vide Is now without any young indies. Come over girls, we have on band several good bus* bands yet.
