Wonder how many farmers that were not going to buy any guano, are using as much as ever. From the number of wagons the amount is not much less than last season.

Wonder if our boys would not like to have an arm of the Library As¬ sociation of Amerieus, established at Ella ville. What could be more commendable than to have a nice reading room for our young men to spend their leisure hours in reading good literature. The express com¬ pany’s agrees to carry literature free of charge. What say you boys?

Success attend you. DOTS FROM OGLETHOKFE. FROM ROBERT. Mr. C. It. Keen, lost a fine mule a few days ago. Col. Smith and wife visited An- dersonville, Sunday.

From passengers on the up train Monday afternoon we learned that an attempt was made to wreck a train on the other side of Eufaula, Sunday. The engineer saw two bars of iron on the track, and stopped his train just as he touched them. His fireman jumped out and saw two negros sitting in the brush. He sueededed in capturing them, and they are new in confinement,—Daily Recorder, IM'IIIS I'l-UlU 1*11(1111 III. Putn a \t , (. a ., March, 17,188(5. Dr. J. It.

Steven’s horse, that it is sup¬ posed died with hydrophobia a few days ago receives about as much respect and sociahilty, as they usu¬ ally give their conjurer. The boys had a debate at the school house last Friday evening subject, “Hoslve that Railroads are jnj u ry to t lie country,” All acquit- ted themselves well. Verdict for affirmative. A lady who lives near here, lias a very large dog, that has the best re¬ spect for tlie neighbors and respect¬ able people in general, but will not allow a peddler of any kind to stop on the premises. The lady says it is the result of education. We were* in your town a few days ago and was surprised to see the number of people, aud amount bus- iness being transacted. Ellaville has as clover set of merchants as any place in the state, and deserve the success they seem to be enjoy- ing. A few days ago just as the cur¬ tains of night were being drawn over the departing day, while Mr. John W. .Snipes, was busying himself among his houses and cattle, anil no doubt mounting over the coin¬ ing result of the 6th as whether his cattle at an early day were distined at an early to be deprived of the pleasure of nibbling the grass from the sand, beds in the public road, and to be coin polled to broonc upon the jericy grass of an enclosed pasture he was aroused .from his deligtful reverie, by a sharp,“ha,0!” “I would be glad to get lodging for the night,” said the individual at the gate. Mr. S. said “I will consult my wife,” thinking no doubt Unit he confront¬ ed an Ohio man looking up a place tolocate. Arrangements were made for him to spend the night. All went well till he was taking his leavo in the morning, and settling his fare with thanks when Mr. 8., remarked ‘you can’t settle that way.’ ‘But I have not a cent of money’ I have a good scoop and am going to prepare compost to-day, so 1 will have you to try your hand said Mr. 8. It needless to say the bill was fully settled and that Snipes is con¬ vinced the man was not looking up real estate. P. Grand anil Traverse Jurors.

To verify the above all you have to do is call and examine their stock, or write for catalogue and prices. One reason they sell cheaper than some houses, is this, they don’t throw in any thing with an Instrument. A handsome stool and scarf goes with each Piano and a Stool and Instruction Book with each Organ, and noth¬ ing else. You pay for what you buy, but nothing more. They give you a home guarantee for five years, and will deliver an Instrument in your house if it is not convenient for you to send after it. They have a very handsome delivery wagon built especially for this purpose. Write for prices and terms to James Fuicker A Bro., Amerieus, Ga.
