Rain and Wind Storm.
T„af<t Friday afternoon the eever
ost rain un<l Windstorm we ever
witnessed passed over Barnesville.
Scarcely a dwelling in town wae
close enough to keep out the rain—
the wind whirling il in every direc
tion. Considerable fence was
blown down, now and then a cab
in on some ones lot. Quite a num
ber of Very large window glass were
blown to shreds in Barnesvillc.
Such a fall of rain is said by old
citizens never to have been seen.
In short it bordered closely on to
a, cyclone.

Ct'M odes, Jan. 16, 1885.
Editor Gazette: — Rev. T. 11.
Gibson preached his first sermon
at the Methodist church on last
Sunday from the 22nd chapter and
r>4th verse of Bt. Luke: “And
Peter followed afar off'.” He han
dled his subject well. His appeals
to his congregation was Ohrist
like, persuasive. He thought it
better for men to follow Christ,
though it be like Peter, afar off'.
Ho.appears to be a very pleasant
and good man —hope he will be
the means of doing much good
work here this year. May he and
the people with whom he is to la
lior with be close followers of our
Saviour hence forth.
Mrs. Hamilton will leave for
Florida next Monday to look after
her orange grove. She has a nice
home and u fine young orange
grove at Bartow, Hernando coun
ty. She will he accompanied by
her daughter Mrs. C. G. Hilsman,
and Miss Achsah Holloway, Cullo
den’s artistic dross-maker and mil
liner. They will remain in the
Land of Flowers the remainder of
the winter. Miss Holloway will
perhaps visit New York on her re
turn to select her spring stock of
Millinery goods. She is a lady of
fine taste and rare business qual
ities ip that line of business.—Miss
Lillie Kellner, one of Forsyth’s
belles, is spending a few days with
her sister Mrs. Dr. Ohamblesg.—
Miss Carrie Wortham and Miss
Lena Feflgin, two charming young
ladies from Crawford and Houston
counties, are visiting the families of
J. O. Holmes and Mrs. J. 11. Banks.
—The Misses Bawls have also been
visiting friends here. They always
find many admirers wherever they
go, they are so fascinating and
sweet. —Miss Bottle Mcßride, of
jhomasvillc, is visiting her uncle,
Th\ Jordan—Mr. Jas. Lockett and
family havemoved lo ins plantation
in Crawford county. Wo will miss
him much, tie was' Captain of our
iparble game, and Ist Lieutenant
bf the loafers club. Hope he will
not resign.—Dr. B. F. Chambless,
from the eastern part of the cotintv,
has moved in the house recently
occupied by Mr. Lockett. We wel
come himanl his bcnevolertt fam
ily. The Doctor is said to be a
fine physician and a thorough go
ing energetic man. He has fitted
up an office in the rooms connected
with the post office, and will offer
his services to the people of Cullo
den and surrounding neighborhood.
—We have failed so far in getting
a teacher to take charge of our
school for this year. Wo are ex
pecting Prof. A. T. Gray, of Monti
cello, in a few days, prospecting,
and we hope to obtain liis services.
There is plenty of material here for
a fine school, and we should
lose no time in getting a good
teacher. There are eighteen chil
dren within a stone’s throw of the
writer’s residence —fifteen of that
number are boys, and most of
them ought to be in school now.
Can your city beat that in one
cluster?
Don’t fail to send us the Gazkttk
regularly, the people here have
learned to look forward for its ap
pearance, it has so much good
reading matter, and its new dress is
so neat, and we admire its pluck in
rising up out of sack cloth and ashes,
with so much vim and energy with
which to maintain her former stand
in the warfare of journalism. Suc
cess to you and the Gazette.

Very Remarkable Recovery.
Mr. Geo. Y. Willing, of Manches
ter, Mich., writes : “My wife has
been almost helpless for five years,
so helpless that she could not turn
over in bed alone. She used two
bottles of Electric Bitters, and is so
much improved, that she is able
now to do her own work.”
Electric Bitters will‘do all that is
claimed for them. Hundreds of
testimonials attest their great cura
tive powers. Only fifty cents a hot
tie at J. W. Hightowers.

thing else to run a daily paper.”

Taking Care ofthe Body.
The Christian Index, the leading
organ of the Baptist Church in the
South, published in Atlanta, Ga.,
in its issue of Dec. 4 1884, has the
following editorial: Too many peo
ple seem to think that a religious
newspaper should he confined to
discussion of moral and religious
subjects only, forgetting that reli
gion has to do both with the practi
cal side of life as it has with the
moral side. Our readers will bear
testimony that in all questions dis
cussed in the Index, the practical
has been duly set forth. In this par
agraph, therefore, we only seek to
present an article worthy of com
mendation. After subjecting it to
the above test we have tried Swift’s
Specific and found it good—good
as a blood purifier, good as a health
tonic. In tins opinion we are sus
tained by some of the best men in
the church. Rev. Jesse H. Campbell,
the Nestor ofthe Baptist denomi
nation in Georgia, says: It is my
deliberate judgment that Swift,s
Spaeific is the grandest blood
purifier over discovered. Its effects
arc wonderful, and I cosuler them
almost miraculous. There is no
medicine comparable to it.” Dr. H.
C. Hornady, one ofthe best known
ministers in our church, says:
“Swift’s Spacific is one of the best
blood purifiers in existence. ’
These brethren speak advisodly.
But few preparations can bring for
ward such endorsements, The Index
desires only to endorse these state
ments. We have witnessed the bene
ficial effects oft his nJ'eMi'cita? not only
in our own households,but in sever
al other cases wficVe seemingly all
other remedies had failed. It is
purely a vegetable compound, scien
tifically prepared, and perfectly
harmless in its composition. It. re
news the blood and builds up bro
ken down systems-gives tone and
vigor to the constitution, as well as
restores the bloom of health to the
suffering. Therefore, we do uotdeem
it .inconsistent with the duties of a
’■religious journal to say this much
in its behalf.

Cause Of Failure.
Want of confidence accounts for
half of the business failures of to day
J. W. Hightower, the Druggist, is
not liable to fail for the want of con
fidence in Dr. Bosanko’sCough and

with Coughs, Colds, Asthma, con
sumption and all affections of the
Throat and Lungs.

How He Got Position.
, “I applied for a position in a
banking house in \\ all street six
months ago, and although I proved
my competency, they would not
take me. I had been ‘down on my
luck and looked old and shabby.
An idea struck me, I got up anew
growth of httir with Parker’s Hair
Balsftm, raised a decent suit of
clothes, applied again, and they
took me in a minute.” So writes a
clerk with $2,000 salnrv. The moral
is plain. Parker’s Hair Balsam gives
a person anew face.

The English laboring people are
exceedingly exercised. Ten thous
and of them held a mass meeting
at London Saturday and adopted a
resolution declaring that depression
in trade, cheap labor, poverty and
the difficulty of finding work are
intolerable evils which those who
suffer them ought not tamely to en
dure. Those evils result from a
denial of equal rights of man in
the elements which the Creator has
provided. The meeting pledged it
self to demand restitution to the
whole people of their birthright in
the land.
Saturdays dispaches reported
heavy gales, snow storms and in
tense cold over the west and north
west. and great damage by rain and
wind.
