The old veterans day has come and gone. afar off, Tho writer was a visitor from and a comrade with the boys of the lost cause. .Ve must say it was a day long to he remembered and cherished by (not only the soldiers) but hy many of the sympathizing friends. The occasion was of a mixed nature—of sadness and of joy Sad—because of its rennnensences of the boys who rell by our sides on the tield 8 of carnage. Joy- because it afforded an opportunity of handshaking by those who had undergone the hardships of a soldiers life together. Yes, those who had walked side by side when the battle raged fiercest. When themissils of death were hurled at our ranks from the ruies Pnes. Yes, it w'as sad indeed when the noble band struck the tune "Just Before the Battle Mother” here we were reminded of the faint voices that we could scarcely hear amid thecannon and musket roar (tell rny wife, led my mother) "I died like a heroin battle and for the rights and liberty of the loved ones at home.” We must say that we were so over joyed on the occasion that we wanted to mount a stump, or a goods box, and pour out our soul's confession of grati tude and appreciation of the most noble plays and selections of the well trained Ellaville Eclipse Band winch far sur passed our most sanguine Surely the boys acquitted themselves manfully and taeir skill in their profes sion together with their moral and in tellectual refinement, but bespeaks the most noble characteristics of the good people in and around Ellaville, whose generosity so burdened the tables with refreshments so luxurious,and suited to the occasion. Surely the sympathizing friends of Ellaville will live long in the hearts ot the old veterans, nor will tiiey forget tbs favor of the editor of the Schley County News in the publication of program –c. Ellaville certainly has a treat in the way of an editor and a brass band. Tiie'last sad thought on the occasion was of those who left Ellaville 33 years ago with us and were never permitted to return again. Our last blessed thought of joy. was our reunion with them in glory where there will be no snore wars. J R Stewart, Searight, Ala. The Great Corn Crop. Two thousand million bushels of corn is the conservative estimate of the Arner ican crop this year. The Agricultun 1 Department adds 500,000,000 to this. It is bey orul comprehension through figures if not beyond computation. In addition to the money value of tl e grain, there is the value of the stalks as fodder. The sum of these values rue above the vast amount of $1,000,000,010 This is the product of the '1,000,000 aerts planted to corn in the United States. In this unprecedented corn crop lies the promise of unprecedented prosperity for the nation, the realization of the opes aroused by the revival of busines which has already come under Democrat ic rule. Nature herself, under a kind Providence, supplements the efforts of the people to lift themselves out of the vale of depression. Agriculture is at the foundation of na tional prosperity; the soil is the real basis of industry. And with such a yield of the grei t staple of food, con tentment will come to the tanner: a new impetus will he given to manufacturing i iduatry, and trade will flourish.—Fx A Terrible Railroad Accident. An exclusion tv a in on the Southern railroad consisting of nine cars was wrecked at Pope's Ferry twelve miles from Macon Friday. The engine left the track followed by four of the cars, the three front ones rolling down an em’oankuien about eight feet.

Leaves have their time to fall, flowers to wither at the North wind's »"•« hast all seasons for thine own oh death, In thinking of the sad death of our mother that occured on the 6th of July we reelMe the nd truth of these line*. Only a few weeks ago she spent several days with me. Its sad to think 1 have neither father nor mother to go to see, they left a number of children to mourn their loss. Our most devoted mother's anxiety was for her children to live right, and I often think of the words I've heard my father repeat on his dying bed. It is a great consolation to me to know right from wiong. I often shed ^ ears to think they are not heie to gi\e advice. I trust that w r e may all live so as to meet them again in a better world. God knows best for us all. Many thanks to the friends for their kindness. They will be long remembered. Amanda Mulder. Since 1378 there have been 9 epidemics i of dysentery in different parts of the country in which Chamberlain's colic, cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was used with perfect success. Dysentery when epidemic is almost as severe and danger ous as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the best efforts of the most skilled physi dans have faded to check its ravages, this remedy however has cured the most malignant cases, both of children and adults, and under the most trying con ditions, which proves it to be the best medicine in the world for bowel com plaints.
