Wo aro all wont to complain when tilings ilo not go to unit ns. This is es pecially bo wllli reference to our mini arrangements. When our mails fail to come in on time, we nro prono to lay tl,o blamo upon the mail carrier. Home times this right, and sometimes it is unt,. The muil routo from Lumber City to this plnou is the main dependence of the citizens of nearly our whole county, for their mail matter, it is therefore •very important that it should always be on time, both as to leaving Lumber City, and an to its arrival horn. The schedule has been recently changed, so us to en able the people along the line to get the benuflt of the daily mail on tbo railroad. Rut it is impossible for us to get the benefit of this arrangement unless there is something more done. It is too far to make the trip by Boll's Ferry, in the time specified in the sched ule. It might be done once, or twice, or occasionally; but for an every day business it is too nuioh. Cheney’s Ferry j is several miles nearer—near enough, iu fact—uud we hear that the ferry is in ' daily operation, uud will ho from now on. The road beyond the river is in good condition. But wo lcnrn that on this side, between the river and Tapper,, where it intersects the Bell's Ferry road, it is well nigh impassible, from logs ami other obstructions. Let us not require impossibilities of our mail carrier. Lot (lie commissioners of roods at once take the matter in baud and have the road put in good condition 1 so that tlio mail carrier can do his duty, | or let us not blame liiu, for the failure, j Lot us have the Cheney's Ferry road pul , iu such condition tlint it eau be readily traveled in ordiunry times, and thou he will probably not complain at having to iwosh at Bull's wLou Cheney’s is impassi ble from high water. Wekuow that the commissioners of roads have ouly to be made aware of the situation and they will at once apply the i proper remedy. Let the Cheney's Fer ry road bo put iu proper condition, and ■ we will then have a mail line that will do us some good. II o will then get tin', city dailies tho day they are printed, and the people of old Montgomery will bo able to. keep up with tho procession ( in this moving world. CORRESPONDENCE.

With a sigh uud a sad heart because 1 have nothing newsy to write, f must bid you adieu. Maybe something will come up by next week. Hcuap. From Lothair. If I could write like some of your creek coirespondents, or if I uud plenty of money, no poor kin, aud nothing to do, but loaf around nnd get up the news, when there was any, and when there was none manufacture some, like some of my neighbors, I would not mind try ing to write occasionally, hut that I can not do, because 1 am very poor, and it is only through untiring energy, and undivided attention to business, that 1 uni able to escape tin- vagrant list. But there is nn abundance to write about these times, if a follow only knew how to do it. A few of Hie citizens of Lothair re paired to Miller’s Ferry, on the Oconee River, lust Saturday and had quite an enjoyable time catching and eating h h. It is said that the little party was a grand success, but then it could not lie other wise, with such genial and a (Tabic ludii - as Mrs. <i. N.

But I hope nothing will not happen. 7 )„t is another yctli quake! No, good Lord! For I tell you, that yetli quake, as our Hpuninrd calls it, shook thiugs around promiscuously, and caused the little cud of our community to secede from their original vine and fig tree. 1 I mean some of our Missionary Baptist friends who like pepperbox, s, are more 1 holy than righteous, have set up busi j ness on their own hook, and propose to j run their own institutions regardless of 1 money cr brains. But as we have three i religions denominations, and two classes ; of people, wo Blink their action will 1 permanently establish the line of demarc ation, ami purify and preserve good, and better society among us. As to what methods they will adopt iu their now enterprise remains to be I soon, but one thing wo kuow, that a few of them have been dipping at their j noses to spite their faces, until they I I have became badly di; figured, so wo j I wish them along and peaceful secession, and hope the big crack in tho.ve’//-. which thev have made, will redound to their * honor and glory! As I said, I urn poor, but I do not mind sonio opposition, because I think; j it an essential element to stimulate one i j to sell-reliance. And I know from ex-; | periouoo that it makes our friends more j cohesive, all of which U uds to a suc cessful career. Kilos rise against, and not with the winds, anil Addison says opposition is not law or physic, or Di-; vinity which eau be over stocked with the hands, but is that which establishes, vigilance and self confidence, so if all Immbug mongers and fault finders, who Improvise sham fights against others, j would attend to their ow n business, they might save themselves from the horrors of self martyrdom, so ease up my friends aud as Bill Arp says, go slow, and we will endeavor by the aid of a fire tly lamp, to cross the lake of the dismal swamp, and paddle orr own canoe!

At the age of 18, about four years ago, she ! 1 moved, with bci father’s family to Vain-1 ciacoonty Fb». Twoye.arsngo her health : | began to fail, and in order to recuperate I she came here to spend a few months with her friend Miss Amanda Morrison. 1 ! About foot weeks ago she took typhoid ! fever, and died on Thursday morning j ! the 9th inst. Bbo wus a youDg lady of noble Chris i tian character, having been converted to j God when quite young. She walked, : in the light of Christ every day. It is; a real lnxtiry to meet with a young lady i that refrains from all light silly talk, and ; delights in Christian conversation. Miss 1 Botts did this; and dying she basic-fiber relatives and friends a legacy more pre cions than gold. Her religious privileges iu Florida wore very limited, an l she | would walk miles every opportunity, to ’ I attend the worship of her Master. ! ! No Btranger who lias ever come to this 1 j community for so short a time, ever had ; a stronger hold upon the affections, or 1 enjoyed in a grritor legrce tile confi ! deuce of the people, than she. To us it 1 j is a strange Providence that removes from earth one so young, bo pure, so no- Ido and so useful. During her last ill ness she was < great sufferer; but though racked with pain and scorched with fi ver, she uevoi forgot to bo polite and thankful for any kindness dune for her by loving ban da. H’uo was one of tboso persons who, when you gained her confidence you hud a warm place iu her affections, aud were held in the highest, esteem by her, and she could r.ot do enough for you. Not quite a year ago lier sister Alice ‘ crossed over the rivor, and when dying 1 look May by the band nod told her not to bo we..-ping for her, that she was go ing to Ilcnvou. Oh, who can describe tho meeting of those sisters on the other shore, on last Thursday morning!

D.--.dh to them that be God's dear children is no more than tho opening of tho door to immortal happiness—the re : turning of tho soul to its owu original au-1 glorious home, n > ncre to go out forever, and God, in Ilia ail-wiso Provi i denco has deemed it best to remove from ; our midst, ou tbo m u-ning of Hi pt. 9th, I I 1880, our bright, sweet May. '! Her homo was in Valucia Co., Fla., aud tiio family consists of father, mother, two brothers aud one sister, and a de ceased sister of eighteen years old who preceded her to that land so fair arid bright only last October. It must have boon one of Iho yrn a'lest scenes of Heaven .-.s Alice and May embraced each other : ou that blissful shore, knowing that they would everm e live in prefect love, ■ wla-ie death m-ver outers, sorrow aud pain aro never felt aud partings arc never I known. . May, being iu delicate health came to I this state hoping to recover, and in the ] j home of tho writer we spout together; i a few weeks of real true happiness, i'.m time will ever bo reflected upon witn j fond recollection of j. vous hours that , tho world will never ka>.v. But ah how sail iu the midst of her bright; at hopes , she was seized tq ■ u by typhoid favor, . and suffered intensely for four weeks, • till the angel of mercy came with a mes sage from God to conic up higher where 1 : uo disease prevails. It was a bright young life eo quickly spent, aud like a precious flower wnioli . withers ere it fully unfolds it. petals or exhales its sweetest perfume, she faded iu the morniiv. cf life while the happy exhalation* of curly pteiy were bloudiug with the more icrveut easouee of mature years. Thero is a brighter hoam in Heaven for dear May we know than th ; s earth coul : ov. r lwc. ■w, yet this world ■ j was a beautiful one io .<-r, and sue had a desire to liVo to improve the talent viod h i given tier and to do all the go. d she could. W* t'.i :t wnto iutimnte with her life, know well the self denying' spirit, and i. w iru -o . lived Kr the comfort and happiness of ot!:vrs. A more unselfish life could have never ex-' Died, nd the on tnesa of her disposi tion w. a for htr mraiy friends, and htr joyous spirit made her lue object of love ia ul! - ->ietv. Fatii -it nnd self icrifif ing, sue entwined herself arour.d the hearts ».f Ho--* who knew bet host, in lasting love and appreciation. The stern and impartial hand of death , severed the slender thread of life, and the : mortal remain* of dear May lie placed by loving hands, in the closely sealed sep ; ulcher, but the spirit which God gave jHe hath taken as nis own, and we | feel that she who was so happy here be low now wears the shining robes of im | mortality in realms of endless bliss. Tby earthly ministry is completed, | dear one, and the reward of the faithful li3 thine. The peace which earth knows not of is with thee now, and we know ! that thon art ever blessed: Farewell; dear friend, farewell, F.arth has no joys that thou canst know, ! No potted hopes, iu their ces-seless ebb andflow Can thy quiet bosom swell; ■ All love’s ambitions and desires have fled i Wo only claim thee as our sacred dead. The young must die; farewell, Tire alluring world spreads out her prospects bright They almost drown the thought of coming night, In the gilded glory of their spell: And death relentless rides on every breeze That touches land, or murmurs o’er the seas. Thy sun has got on earth. Tin glowing landscapes bathed iu light : Po-s.-sS no beauties that attract thy sight, No voices in familiar mirth, No tones of loved onps though they sing or weep, Can wake our friend from her eternal sleep. Death lias claimed her; farewell, ; Vet it is a dreary word and hard to For the parting v,as so sad ere the dawning of the day, In the gloom of darkness grim | The final hour so dark, so sorrowful and still; Wo knew thatallwas over. She was no longer ill. We felt that angels stood iu waiting, To bear her up to realms of light omi Dove, To take her in their arms to the Saviour up above, j Where pearly gates, all ungrating, Swing open and reveal the glories that are I there | For the faithful, and such as crowns of glory wear. We laid her in tiio grave; farewell: A cold .l ark place for the young to lio, 1 But till-young, as wellusold, must die. And not one of ns are able to tell ■ ! How soon beneath the grim earth sod, We too may be, where late our wayward feet have trod. . Sleep on, sleep on till dawn, , Till the dawn ot morning floods with tight j Forevermore, the blent region where no night Car, dim the pr • penis of our morn, And where the gathering splendors of tbo now born day, Will grow still lovelier, forever and for aye.

A jury composed of eleven business men and an old fellow from across the creek retired to the jury room. The ' foreman, when selected, remarked that j ho thought the prisoner ought to be sent tu the penitentiary for five years. ‘ ’That ain’t long enough,” said the old fel.ow. "Let’s put it on him fur ten.” "Ob, no, that won’t do." “Wall, then,” stretching himself out ; ou a bench, ‘Tin withyer.” "What, you going to hang the jury?” "That’s about it.” "My dear sir, we are r.uxious to get back to our business.” • Toon send hiui up for ten." "But that would be a great injustice.” "Then squat an’ make yourselves com fortable.” • Have you any special reason why the prisoner should go up for ten years? “Tbiuk I have.” "Will you phase name it?” "Vos, tur It. vr. n’t take tuo long.
