Tho Entertainment- The 1 'nti i t:ciinn. nt given by tho*Good Tem plar* ln»t Tlnii day night at the court house in thin place, wan in every way a grand success. Tli oe wjio had been privileged to witness tho previous rehrni> ahi, went to tin Kiilerlai/iicnt with very many misgivings bn to the result. it wan fea ll l that ill enmeijuoiico of aome dlrtitp poinluiitiitH that had been mot with, amt a want of proper publicity, there won) I not he a good turnout. Thin idea prevailed mm mg the inein liers of the troupe, amt so dispirited them, that up to tin last reUourxal, on Thursday afternoon, partial friends could not Imt promuiueo it a failure. Hut when tho time arrived, anil the i rowd to ran to roll into town from all quarters of the compass, it became evident that there would he no failure for want of an aiidi i nee. When the time arrived for tho perform ance to commence, tho court house was lilled to ilh utmost capacity, The prosi-uco of ho large an andicneo acted like magic upon the troupe. Each and every ouo secined suddenly Inspired with lie determination that tin- fail ure should snot belaid at It is door or hers. Under thin intluemu they performed feats taut would have been impossible to them two hours before. Tin address of welcome, by Col. Carswell, was short, well-timed and appropriate. He presents a manly appearance, and Ids peculiar, deferential manner, unwittingly wins the heart of the listncr. The tableau presented hy Miss (Inside Mc- Cullough, ill ‘‘ltock of Ages,” was tin'snldim cst spei'lacle we have evurseen. Arrayed In garments of tloecy whiteness, her raven hair falling loosely and gracefully,contrasting mag ically with the misty whiteness, otti lovely white arm dinging to an elaborate cross, as, ineehty km cimi; at its fool, with eyes trust ingly raised to Heaven she gently wm illed ‘‘Nothing in my hands t bring Him ply to thy cross 1 cling” it was slnmat impossible to realise that it was not some heavenly dream. Il w.i ■ north going a hundred miles to sco. So unrs|4nred was tin audience, ttiat when the snug was llnlshcd and the curtain fell, md a e-hcor weut up it won Id have been sacrilege! Tin re is Imt one voice ill tile matter. Everyliody says it was the sweetest tiling they ever saw, anil the lmpc is unanimously • ntortained and expressed, that she limy he induced to repeat it oil tho lint tilting occasion. Master .!. J. Ihizonnirr's rendition of John H. Gough's “Tribute to Water" wan excellent, and well received. The young eloetitioiiist acquitted himself nobly and retired amidst tho cheers of an appreciative audience. Master Fontaine Carswell, in his speech on Temperance, by Ids csty and graceful delivery , made quite a favorable impress:.-ti upon the ftildienoo, and gave bright promise of a coining orator. In the temperance drama ‘‘till the Brink" Willie Melts.-, ns Havel Thaxtrr, was purlieu Hrlv felicitous in his rendition of the rations j phases of the drunkard's earner, from the lirst ; drink with his “friends" «s ns an aspirant for ! oltl -e, down through the agonic.- of delirium * tremens to dual reformation; while Alex, l’eti i - son, excelled himself as lien halo r. and rounds of laughter greeted Ids drunken exultation when “tho president of tho former's club got tho floor.” Tlic bitterness and woo of tho drunkard's wife and mother were touchingly and patio ti eallv illustrated by Miss Kula IVterson, as Ellen Thaxtor; ami her poiuant grief and mortifloa tion at the iusantty and disgrace of lier son's wife, were worthy of the stage. Perhaps no actor in the whole troupe is en titled to aonmoh credit for tin part performed, as Miss Agnes Adams, in the chat net.-r of ltox alena Tliaxter, the old maid who wanted to gi I married to "some gentleman ot the male sex," and “proceed to t uild up a happy home. ’ Her role was so utterly unlike her true seif—so en tirely did every sentiment have tol - assumed, that had she shown that it was assumed, an 1 aprociative audienoe might have pardoned it Ye* she went through it with the skill of a pro fetunonal. Nothing could have better illustra ted the sourness and Jealousy of the anxious [ old maid who has bo.-u brought hy a succes sion of disappointments, to tin pent of "any body, Lord," than her oontemptuoua spit, fulness, at the mention of the name of Miss Juliana Pinkston, a (sissitde rival. Miss E. May Sutten appeared as Mary Kfllng tou. The putt was originally ass gued to M.ss Mary Smith, but i-w.iig to the eentinued sick ness of her mother, she was cotuiH'Ued to give it uj'. almost at the last moment, much to the : regrst of all conearned. Mi a Sutton was then prevailed upon to take the part, though with only three days for preparation. This young lady has been iu tho country but a few weeks, but has made many friend Jhere during that short period. Herranditi -n of her role evinced 1 dramatic talent of no ordinary order, as xvell as a thoroughly cultivated voice. The wild, wcirxl music i f Ihe’mndac, was theiilmg and enchanting. Hut the climax of her triumph was reached at tl.at point where the heart leo kcn metlu r tries to calm md comfort her. her self scarcely less disturbed; the daughter pauses, liateaa, without a glance tow ard her. 1 until she is through, t - respectful even in hot inaani’y to disfirt. her. Then without eonde econdiug a word of reply, she purs forth the sad sweet attains of tin maniac so.igl We Hay be wrong, hot we opine die lias been on tjie stage he fore Mr- it. T.

Fain only lacks now a guaranty from Ilartow anel Cobb, to secure the- prize*. liucon lias all tho '.-orners of the gub ernatorial crazy-quilt in northwest Geor gia. Gen. Gordon will have to call iu a large amount of “personal magnetism” to s cure tho counties north of the Etow ah. The old furce—l might say worse of a “trade” between Brown, Colquitt A Co., is being used up there, as well ns some damaging remarks attributed to marshal Nelms, The result of the cam paigning so far is, Bacon 12, Jones 6, Gordon Tho democratic Executive Committee lmve called the convention, to meet in Atlanta July 28th. Each county will be entitled to twice the vote it has iu tho lower house of tho legisla ture. Last Sunday was the occasion of a very distressing tragedy iu our siihiirliuu town of West End. Marshal Jo ties shot and killed Col. Frank F. Gray, a promi nent and well-to-do lawyer. The dilli. unity occurred about the enforcement of ; the cow ordinance bv the marshal. Atlanta will certainly he a dry town after Juno 80th, the whiskey ring to tlm coutiary notwithstanding. G.- .ian. Zaidoe Ga May loth 188(5. Ed. Moni iok: 1 see iu your paper of ‘2!>th April, a communication from the pou of Brother A. ,S. Hamilton. 11 starts out hy stating that lie is no man i to talk or to arguti any subject-, though ; ho seems to think he is called on to . x prnsa his opinion iu regard to a auhjevt of vast importance, and asks with an air of triumph, what he terms a solid question Jou the Bible. Now, iu the first place, wo deny there being such quotations iu the Bible, and challenge : him to give chapter and verso. Aud what if the masses of the people say they I do not heln-ve in sanctification, we know that the Bible teaches-it. and we believe it because God declared it. J i the world were to deny the teachings of our Heav enly Master, as inlfny of telnn do, we would lielieva it, because it is given liv inspiration of God, aud is the truth. But we will not comment unless tho brother will give chapter and verso of Hitch scripture, or like a good man, con fess that he is mistaken. Uu> Land Makk. From McArthur. Ed.

This Association is for cverv name and order in the Sunday School work. It is not sectarian. May j the Blessed Spirit help each name and persuasion to fall into line, oild form a great phalanx, iu the uam-- of the Lord, to help against the mighty. God speed j tho day wlxm all Christian workers iu the j right arm of onr Lord’s Bridal will shake otrtlie shackles of a name and meet to gether in our Father's name, to help each other to save, the youth from siu and the evil results hereafter. Let pupils, teachers, superintendents and officials, while wo aio arranging for our appearance f>r the day appointed, not forget, l repeat, to have our hearts upon the great c.u-othat wo ln-vo es poused.
