WHEATLEY & ANSLEY, AMERICUS IRON WORKS ISA BIO FIRM AND DO AN AMOUNT OF WORK Which Would Surprise Aoyone Who l>oes Not Know the Extent of Their Plant and Capacity For Operation—A Peporter' Visit to the Works. Yesterday a Timks-Rkcohdkii reporter took In the Americus Iron Works, and although the time was unpropitlous for anything like an adequate critorlan by which to go for an Insight into the Im mense business done by this factory, yet to the uninitiated the hum of machinery and tae busy army of mechanics would look like an over-crowding of work. They are doing muoh, but have capacity for more. There are few people in Americus, comparatively speaking, who realize the importance and magnitude of this Indus try. There are no parts of building Iron that they cannot cast, and steam engines can bo entirely reproduced, ns is evidenced by the number which they now have on hand for repairs and re modelling. The foundry connected with the es tablishment 1b one of full completeness in all its details, and with the assistance of an unexcelled pattern-maker, castings from blind fastenings to 100 liorse-pow er fly wheels can bo made. Their blast furnace Is one of groat capacity, and when at its full beat tho interior us viewed through the isingglass peep hole on one side is painfully suggestive of what impenitent sinners may expect after a career of earthly iniquity. Mr. Jas. Lanier, whether from natural geniality or rushing business, wears a perpetual and inviting smile and seems to take as a personal favor tho privilege of showing visitors over tho extensive works over which lie has tho super vision. Letter List. The following unclaimed letters will be sent to tho dead letter office if not called for in ten days.

The boautiful ohurch is suroly going to be completed. The contractors began work yesterday and knowing onos say no more delays. This house of worship will be an ornament to the city, and a thing of joy to the good people who have so long been without a church, if Dr, Campbell, the faithful and much loved pastor, has been untiring In his efforts to keep Ids people together dur ing the long period that they have had to worship In halls, borrowed churches, and in a tent with only the canopy of Heaven for a shelter. Well has he suc ceeded and without dtBsent an elegant Baptist church has been erected and will ho consecrated with its people In love and harmony with each other. Thus the labors of a wise ounsellor of God have been crowned with success. The building committee will call this week on all subscribers who have given tbelr notes which are now about due and earnestly beg all to he prepared to pay promptly. Mr. Randall Pope, tho retired drug gist of Madison, Fla., says (Dec. 3, 1880) he regards P. P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium) as the best alter ative on the market, and that he has seen moro beneficial results from the uso of it than any other blood medicine. oct0dl2w2 Sumter at the Exposition. Times-Recorder: 1 am glad to see that you appreciate my efforts to adver tise my county at tho exposition. It re quires no little energy on my part to do it, and any assistance from whatever sourco is greatly needed and much welcomed. No one denies me anything, but tho time to gather a few samples of their crops, which just now, arc greatly need ed. In that respect they are excusable, and I ouly wish I could bo a dozen men to bring together tho resources of tho county and really demonstrate that our county is inferior to none, w. I am having pretty good luck anyway, and those desiring to help in any respect will please bear in mind that I will load In Smithvillo on the 12th and 13th inst., and in Americus on Wednesdry tho 14th. J. F. Ross. Suppressing' the Press. The arrest of two editors for printing nn extract from another paper question ing the validity of the anti-lottery law is certainly carrying things pretty high in this land of free speech and liberal government. The Post has no objection to the stamping out of tho lottery companies, but the line should bo drawn, it thinks, at that point where irresponsible under lings of the government attempt to stamp out the press. On this line the Atlanta Constitution says that “this policy will not work. If lotteries cannot be destroyed without also destroying tho freedom of the press, the people will be in favor of letting the lotteries alone. Wo cannot affort to yield our right to speak and publish fair criticisms of public measures. If we yield tho right in one instance wo may oxpect to be forcod to keep silence whenever it suits the government to de mand it. Fortunately it is no easy mat ter to bulldoze the newspapers of America. The menace of fino and im prisonment will intimidate very few. Xo mattor what federal officials may hold, the newspaper men of the country will not change tlielr conviction that an honest criticism or discussion of tho provisions contained in the anti-lottery law cannot with any show of justice be held to be a violation of that law. If they are mistaken in this belief, then tho law will have to be repealed or modified. In tills republic the govern ment cannot array itself against the tho press and baro the support of the people.” Dranevllle Drop*. Draneville, Ga., Gctober 5.—Your correspondent has made her debut again; not with a great bundle of news, but simply to tell you what is transpir ing in our little town. Mr. W. P.

If you have a wife and a half dozen daughters, you can keep them all well by very simple means. Let them use Dr. Pierces’ Favorite Prescription. It is good for women of all ages. You will not need to spend all your wages for it. Those ancient sages, the M. D.s of a quarter of a century since, did nothing but dose and bleed their patients. We do better to-day: We use Dr. Pierce’s remedies. For womankind Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is simply indis pensable. The young girl needs its strengthening help at that critical period when she is blossoming into woman hood. The matron and mother find in it invigoration and relief from the nu merous ills which beset their existence. And ladies well advanced in years uni versally acknowledge the reviving and restorative effects of this favorite and standard remedy.
