Pike Superior Court.
Monday morning last, His Honor

PR the needs in any case. Playing
with minors was referred to and the law
clearly explained. v
His Honor was by no means tender
on the subject of sell
ln liquors to minors and in
toxiemed persons. While he did not feel
called on to discuss prohibition or vice
or versa, everj| father was
interested in the subject, lie
to the bill now in Parliament ana its
prohibition results in case of its pas

results of prohibition he said
that five years since Rockdale

law. In closing up the penal business
of the county at the last term of that

edin.an interesting manner. He said
there was a bill before Congress which
proposes an appropriation from which
Georgia will get something over eight
hundred thousand dollars. To get this
in case the bill becomes a law, an addi
tional percent will be necessary to tlie
present school fund, which is about
lour hundred thousand dollars. He
suggested that the jury might recom
mend some action on tlie part of our
i Senators and Representatives in Con
gress and also by our Senators and Rep
resentatives in the GelWfal Assembly.
In answer to the objection offered
that a great part of this fund would go
to the education of the colored children
of the state lie said that the appropria
tion to be made was based on the illit
teracy of the colored people without
which Georgia would not get so much
of the appropriation.
The court then called the docket and
set down the following:

County Officers.
Many persons become candidates for
office without any correct idea as to the
duties, responsibilities, or profit of the
office they desire to fill. There is no
office in our county that really pays its
incumbent enough to scramble for it
so far as money is concerned. There
should be a change made, in my opin
ion, in certain county officers which I
shall name only on one ground, viz; in
competency, or neglect of duty. These
officers are, Clerk Superior Coujt, Sher
iff, Ordinary and Receiver of Tax Re
turns. As. the first named its duties
cannot lie Icari£opn a day, nor is every
man fitted to acquire a thorough knowl
edge of its duties in one single term of
two years, and when a man has acquw
ed such knowledge, discharges
ties well and is willing to continue to
serve in that capacity longer, it is the
folly, in a business point of
to experiment by turning him out and
putting another in his place. Pike
county has an efficient clerk who dis
charges his duties faithfully; no one
or tryly say to the contra
ry ; he has a considerable amount, (I
have no doubt as all clerks who have
been long in office have) in the
shape of uncollected court costs, which
would be lost to him if removed from
office , as his , however much
to aid in collec
tion „ could not do efficiently as
himself for lack of information as to
cases disposed of, and the amount of
cost due in such cases, as well as for
want of time to require the informa
tion and give the mattq| attention. His
whole time, for his first term at least,
would be occupied in learning bis du
ties. and in the discharge of such as he
wounfbe compelled to perform. m
would therefore be absolutely unjust to
Mr. Beckham, to say nothing of the in
jury to the Court business of the coun
ty, to displace him. A knowledge of the
Records, and oMie particular place
where any paper may be found, is nec
essary Mi the incumbent of that office
(and sometimes much depends on find
ing at once the paper enquired for) and
this knowledge lie has, which it would
take his successor long to a|auire. Bet
well enough alone, and you get a
good officer, keep him if heis willing to
be kept. The same majebe said of the
Ordinary’s office; if well filled as its du
ties promptly and faithfully discharg
ed, retain the incumbent as long as he
is willing to serve.
As to Sheriff, there is not one man in
a thousand that possesses all the quali
fications, that must combine in the make
up of a good one. The nine hundred and
ninety nine Kumot acquire them, for na
ture must make the man and endow
him with certain peculiar qualities fit
ting him for The position, without
which never he efficient. You
now have the one thousandth man, and
if he will let you, keep him.
The Receiver of Tax Returns by hold
ing the office two years, acquires a
knowledge of persons in the county lia
ble to pay, and of property subject to
j taxation, which enables him to much
more efficiently perform the duties in
cident to that office. The revenue of
both State and County are dependent
upon the faithfulness, knowledge and
competency of the assessor. Any one
can collect taxes which have been prop
erly assessed, but it is not every one that
can properly assess them and make cmt
books creditable to both County and
officer, for delivery to Comptroller Gen
eral and the Collector of Taxes. You
have a good, efficient, Conscientious as
sessor now, who thoroughly understands
his business, and who has been compli
mented by the Comptroller General for
| the manner and promptness with which
he has discharged the duties of his sta
tion. It is best to let well enough alone
and keep him.
I have written this without the knowl
edge of either of the present incumbents
and without any intention of disparag
ing the claims, or of detracting from the
merits, fitness or qualifications of any
one who is now acandidate or may here
after become one, for either of these
offices in opposition to them.
As to claims, no one can justly claim
a right to fill any office. Some sinecure
offices under some government, with
big pay hnd nothing to do, may be be
stowed as a matter of charity upon the
i disabled, poor or deserving. But we
have no such offices in Geotgia, partic
ularly in the Counties, and the election
of persons to fill such as we have should
be mainly upon business principles, just
as a merchant would employ a clerk or
the manufacturer an operative. What
merchant would discharge a competent
and faithf id clerk to fill his place with
one who knew nothing about merchan
dise, at the same salary? or what man
ufacturer would discharge a skilled op
erative, to supply his place with a raw
hand at the same wages? I. D. 8.

Dear Friends:
I wish to call your attention to our
“Little Gleaners”—our juvenile mis
sionary society. As most of you know
they have undertaken to aid in the ed
ucation of a Mexican girl Ac., to do
this must raise §40.00 annually. The
ladies, who have worked with the chil
dren, have empressed them this fact;
that they must not beg the money which
they put into their treasury—but, that
they must muke it either by some light
labor, or by sacrifice—that'is by denying
themselves of a portion of the small
change that is given to them from time
to time, saving some of it for their so
ciety inftead of spending all of it for
candv and other nick-nacks. Now. the
little darlings will always do this, if
mama will only remind them now and
then—for they will forget sometimes,
(as the Mamas do) to give the Lord his
share. Encourage tttem to perform
small services for yoiu aifl pay them a
nickel ora*lime, telfiig them as you do
so not to forget their Missionary #jox.
Thus you are eeaching them two imef til
Ugsous, which cannot be taught too
eiffly; to be helpful to you and to give
of their the Lord, the Giv
er of all things^
They are novlengaged in making a
Missionary quilr, and earnestly ask the
help of any one i>V|te community. The
white squareswlllnave names written
upon them, Any persons desiring to
have his or her name put upon the
quilt, will be so honored by contribu
ting a nickel or more if preferred.
When the quilt is finished we propose
to sellit to the highest bidder—and we
are readi now for bids, Who would
not like have a quilt pieced oy the
little girls of his own town, and beav
ing%pon its face tfUir names and the
names of all who eneoun%e them in
their noble work. Come friends,
us yiur names, and the nickels and
dimes—wc desire to finish the quilt,
and sell it by the first of Decemlink,
that the money may be sent off with
our next quarter returns. Let us have
your bids, in the meantime, for the
huilt—don’t all seak at once as the Sec
retary isslovMpn writing down names.

Some of our readers have Imitated
to send us articles because theigwere in
doubts about our giving them insertion-
We wish to say, as w r c said
that the Gazette is ahv ays open to the
discussion of any matters that pertain
to the public good. We have been forc
ed to decline, some articles because of
their personal reflections. We have
never believed that such articles should
be published and hence have declined
to give some contributions of this char
acter insertion. In two instances we
have declined such articles and when
the excitemeut and passion of the au
thors subsided they came and thanked
us for so doing. The Gazette is open
at all times for news or for the discuss
ion of matters that pertain to public in
terest.
We invite the attention of the read
ers of the Gazette to the advertisement
of Driver Bros., in* this issue. These
gentlemen sold owtheir old stock at
reduced prices, ana have invested in a
new r and extensive stock of general
merchandise They have opened up
this new' stock in the stand formerly oc
cupied by Messrs. Gwynn & Redding.
Call on these gentlemen when you go
to Zebulon to purchase goods.
A permanent restoration of exhaust
ed and worn-out functions follow the
use of Brown's Iron Bitters.
Mr. J. W. Ford advertises in this Is
sue that he will sell to the highest bid
der on the first Tuesday in November,
if not sold privately before, his house
and four acre lot, in Zebulon. He pla
ces this property oil the market, be
cause he proposes to move out to his
tannery, and does not wish to rent
the property. Here is a bargain if any
one wishes to invest in real estate in
Zebulon. 9

I heard your Hop Bitters recomendetl
by so many, I concluded to give them a
trial. I did, and now am around, and
constantiy improving, and am nearly as
strong as ever.

Col. John F. Redding addressed the
citizens of Barnesville on Monday
night last at Granite Hall on tljp politi
cal issues of the day. Quite a number
of ladies were out to hear him. He pre
sented the w r ays of the convention that
nominated him and showedjhat there
was no just cause for a licit. His speech
was applauded extensively and w T as
well received. As the canvass is at an
end we will not give a synopsis.
Sufferers, Bead This:—lf You Are
afflicted witluNeuralgia or TTeadaeh:

household Department.
We are sorry that the apparent con
I fusion in the choice of signatures litis
occurred in our Household and we
would suggest that our Beatrice No. 2
adopt some other name as we are sure
it was merely a matter of accident that
she chose the same that belonged to
another.
A correspondent asked several issues

rack; do any of the sisters know howJH
make this trimming? if so we tiflß
they will be kind, enough to write
the directions and send to us. w
I)eau lloi'skhoed:
The parhetie appeal of our unliapp*
sisterßeatrice, aroused all the wilel*
and womanly sympathy of my nature.
Experience, alone properly prepares us
to sympathize with others. My matri
monial life has been so dissimilar I fear
I will prove a Job’s comforter. My hus
band is naturally quiet and undemon
strative, but each year grows 4|ire lov
ing and affectionate. He says lie would
have been a cold, gtefti, calculating,
matter of fact husband if he Ad not
selected a wife of mv temperament. I
intend no compliment to myself; and
always attribute our domestic bliss to
his bright sunny, cheery K manner so
like a ray of sunshine, athwart a cold
November sky. 1 remember as though
it were but yesterday, nor scarce so
long ago, the last afternoon before my
marriage.
In the quiet eventide, my mother in
vited me to walk with her, in her gen
tle persuasive way, said she wanted to
advise me, on some little things, appar
ently trivial in the new relation of
wife.
Among other things Al
ways meet your husband \Aa smile
and a warm lieart-felt embrare. Nev
er allow the house to be in wild confu
sion when he enters. Make home bright
with a cheerful fire in winter, lamps
and llowers in Summer. a
“A home, that paradise below
Where hallowed joys perennial how
* By calm sequestered bowers.”
Bestow an extra touch on your toilet
a wave or two, a liower in your hair and
at your throat, let him know that you
are watching and waiting for him.
After 16 years of trial, these simple
instructions stilrhold good. “ Our hap
py wedlock has been a long falling in
love” ‘lengthened sweetness long drawn
out.”
“Our honey moon has never set lg£
bind dull mountains, or dipped silently
in the stormy sea of life.” 4Ve yield
each other true heart service as the
years glide by although the bridal
wreath has faded, and the wedding
l ing sadly wearing, our lives blend har
moniously, like two harps in the most
perfect accord with no discordant notes.
“Even thought meets thought, ere iromihe
lips It parts ,
And each warm wish springs mutual from’ ihe
heart.”
“Wedded love, girdled by the bless
ings of friends, hallowed by the sane-
God, rosy with present joys, ra
diant with future hopes is something
akin to Heaven.” 1 commend these
to you, if you have not
tried them. Jt is generally conceded
that wives play the most prominent pint
in making the happiness ot' homes.
Each has duties, and whatever is love
liest, best, and most graceful in wo
man, is likewise good and graceful in
man. If you are a young wife and de
sire it, I will, in a subsequent letter,
make some additional suggestions, al
though in this matter of conjugal love
as in all others it is easy to theorize,
putting into happy and successful prac
tice is quite another thing'
Hoping for brighter skies, and abet
ter understanding of each other when
you write again—allow me to subscribe
myself a sincere Sympathized
Dear Household.
I saw in the last issue of the Gazette
a piece in the Household column signed
ed Beatrice N0.2. 1 wrote several pi ects
for our household under that signature
and I must protest against the tppro
priation by any one else, of my no m de
plume. My dear sister why did you not
sign yeurself ‘'Crushed.” it would have
been so appropriate. You certainly
have my sincere sympctliy, for I am
sure it would make me quite miserable,
if my husband were to pass a single day
without speakidg to me, of his own ac
cord
As you ask for advice, I will venture
to suggest three plans which may possi
bly have the desired egect. First, ap
peal to his heart. Tell him how badly
his reticence makes you feel, and then
try to de as charming yourself, as possi
ble. Always greet him with a smile of
welcome and a kiss, and when he has
“moping spells,” talk to him pleasantly
and try to talk of something that will in
terest him. You may possibly be Jable
to charm away his blues, and I imagine
such conduct on your part would make
him at least try to overcome them, if
only for yqpu* sake. Secondly—appeal to
his yocket. Try to be as eeonomicol as
possible. His “moping spells” may be
eaused by the fact, that the demands on
liis purse are such that it embarrasses
him financially to meet them, and still
he does not Mke to deny you anything
yon wish to nave.
If neither of these plans haue the de
sired effect, continue your efforts and
try in addition the third ,pkn. 1 have
often heard that “ths surest way to a
in airs heart was through his stomach
Even a much admired poet has said that
a man
“May live without hoots—, what la knowledge
but grieving?
H may live without hope,—what Is hope but de
ceiving?
ne may live without lAe,*-what Is passion
pining?
But where Is the man that can live without din-
• mg?”
So lie certain to fix for each meal
some dish that you know he likes, and
lie sure that it is well prepared, for there
is ljpthing more likely to put a man in
a good humor, than well prepared food.
Mr. B. tells me to add, that if all of
these plans fail, he would ail vise you to
•‘put a spiper in liiS dumpling?’ and
- you choose your second husUmd
be certain to select one who never has
“mopiug spells."
