The Cherokee*.
The Mojave* had a red-letter even
ing last Friday. According to a pre
arranged programme Cherokee tribe,
No. 1., of Atlanta, was chosen by the
Mojaves to induct a half dozen j»ale fa
ce* into the mysteries of Redmanism.
The Cherokee* have long borne a
reputation second to no tiifie in the
State for their proficiency in the iuiti
atory service* ; and that they did their
work well will be attested by the new
ly made Red Men who were scalped
by them on last Friday night.
State Organizer Hafer was of the
number of visitors who came down,
but knowiug the prowess of the Cher
okees, he refrained taking any part m
the service*, declaring that though lie
was a Mo-lock whose number* were su
perior to the Cherokee*, yet, the
Cherokee* had no superiors in this
country when- it came to demonstrating
the initiatory service and secret work
ing* of the order.
After three or four hours of inex
pressible fun and enjoyment, in the
wigwam, gome glowing tribute* of elo
quent sentiment was exchanged by the
Mojaves and the Cherokee*.
Mr. J. Q. Nolan, in behalf of the
Mojaves,delivered au eloquent and im
passioned speech, in which he bestow
ed s ome just enconiums of the
tiibe. His effort was teceived with
thunderous applause, and the orator
was congratulated on all side on his
happy efiort.
Mr. J. T. Wiley was called ou by
his tribe (the Cherokee*) to respond to
the welcome address. In the smooth
and easy style of a public debater, Mr.
Wiley entertained his hearers. The
many kindly expressions for the Mo
javes, with which his speech abounded,
was loudly applauded by them. His
glowing eloquence impressed his
hearers that the Cherokee* had made
no mistake in selecting a speaker for
the occasion.
Mr. A. A. Meyer, the Cheiokee’s
pappoosc, was next culled for by the
Mojaves. Though small in stature,
Mr. Meyer captivated the house by
many beautiful and easy flowing sen
teuc is, and impressed them that he was
master of titanic powe:s. Though
scarcely out of his teens, Mr. Meyer
is a brave of high standing among his
tribe. As a lawyer he is fast uscend.
ing the ladder of fame, and his spark
ling eloquence and native good sense
will, we predict, oue of these days put
him on the top round, where he may
“skill a political cat” and become as
famous as Hon. L F. Livingston, who
is the gieatest man since the days of
Joshua.
Mr. S. C. Owens, though a newly
elected Sachem, is perhaps one of the
best presiding officers in Georgia As 1
terror-inspirer, wo refer the public to
oue of our newly made braves, who will
assert, with fear of successful contra
diction, that he can utter the most un
eaithly yells and handle the tomahawk
in a maimer to make a wooden Indian
take to his heels.
State Organizer Hafer made a plea*-
Hnt ten minutes talk, and demonstrated
by facts and tigures that the order was
growing rapidly. We can but congrat
ulate the Red Men of Georgia on hav
ing so wide awake au organizer. lie
is the right man in the right place.
The banquet given the Red Men, of
Atlanta, was ample ; and we feel proud
to know that it was so highly apprecia
ted by them. For an hour or more
they fed from several long tables d'hote,
and indulged in many pleasures.
With thauks to the Cherokees for
their kiudnes*, the Red Men of Mc-
Donough hope to have them in their
w igwam agaiu.
Deafness Can’t Be Cured
ny local applications, as they can not
reach the diseased portion ot the ear.
There is only one wav to core deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused hy an in
flamed condition of the mucuous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely dosed deafness
is the result, aud unless the inflamma
tion can be taken out and this tube res
tored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever ; nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh, which
is nothing but au inflamed condition of
the mucuous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness (cans ad by Ca
tarrh) that we cannot cure by taking
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circu

Col. Whidbt, after finding that he
was mistaken about the charges made
against Col. Livingston as to betraying
his confidence, has made an honorable
acklHiWledgetnent Iff Col. Livingston.
There is no need that these Alliance
chiefs should bo at a in ; smnlert.Uiidiiig
There is no One who knows Col. Liv
ingston. who believes that he would
betray the confidence of a friend. And
Lite withdrawal of the charge made by
Col. Whidby only strengthens the con
fidence of Col. Livingston’s friends In
his integrity. t
Weak Women.
The more sensitive nature of the fe
male sex renders women much more
susceptible than men to those uumer
ous ills which spring from lack of bar
mony in the system. The nervous sys
tem gives way, sick headache is fre
quent, tho appetite is lost, and other
ailments peculiar to the sex cause great
suffering. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is pe
culiarly adapted for such cases and has
received the most gratifying praise for
the relief it has afforded thousands of
women whose very existence before
taking it was only misery. It strength
en* the nerve*, cures sick headache
and indigestion, purities and vitalizes
blood, and gives regular and healthy
action to every organ in the hotly.
Ik, under the new apportionment of
Congressional representation, Georgia
should gain a Congressman, and there
is no doubt she will, there is not a
more fit person in the State than Col.
Kmrnet Womack to represent the State
at laige. Col. Womack has already
gained a reputation as a lawyer and
an organized Democrat; and should he
lie chosen to Congress he will have a
reputation second to noone for brillian
cy mid wit. not even that king of fun
ny men, lion. Proctor Knott. Send
him, Georgians, and you will have a
man at the federal capital of whom you
will be proud.
To live or not to live is the question
which aunualy confronts the residents
of our low grounds and swampy dis
tiicts. Take Cheatham’s Tasteless
Chill Toi.ic.
Kimi.kii, the New York wife killer,
had the great scientific distinction of
being the first to go to glory by the
new electric toute. He was executed
by electricy in the Auburn State
prisun on the 6th instant.
FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS
(Wo arc in nowise responsible for ike
views expressed liy our Correspondents.
We cannot make any allowance forirreg
ularityof mails or failing to post letters af
ter they are written. To obviate this diffi
culty, we would suggest, that correspon
dents at a distance write Saturday and
mail their communications as soon thei
after as possible. If a letter comes iu on
time and we fail to publish, on account of
want of space, it will be published the fol
lowing week. Let every correspondent give
us the news in as condensed form as possi
ble, otherwise it will be necessary to elimi
nate superfluities. Ail communications are
riving after Wednesday will be too late for
publication.
Mont fit, Jean.
Rain plentiful.
Mr. L. D. Tarpley is quite sick.
We hope our friends will vote for
clever l’ob Warren. He is an old con
fvdeiate soldier, a poor and worthy
gentleman, who is competent to filll
tho office. Mr. Warren has never held
au office and if the people should give
him the office this time he would not
ask their help anymore. Let us help
the good old man this time.
We had the pleasure of meeting the
Cherokee tribe. They are tho best lu
juns in the State. We want to meet
them again. Come again, gouts.

for this reason I withdraw from the

Cheatham’s Tasteless Chill Tonic is
now on the market. Try it and be
convinced that is the only real pleasant
and effective medicine known that will
in every case cure the chills and fever.
It contains no quinine or poisons and is
sold under the familiar motto, “nocure
no pay.”
To the Public.
The time given by tho Executive
Committee of Hcmy’county being very
short, and uot having been able to
make a thorough canvass, 1 must ask
the good people whom 1 have been un
able to meet that ii is no fault of miue
that 1 have failed to see them aud ask
their support. Nothing would have
been more gratifying than to have met
you all. Hoping you will enquire into
the merits of my case and give it that
consideration you may think due me,
I am respectfully,
Aug. 14. Either Pair.
Many so called “Bitters” are not
medicines, but simply liquors so dis
guised as to evade the law in prohibi
tion sections. This is not the case
with the celebrated l’rickly Ash Rit
ters. It is purely a medicine, acting
on the liver and blood, and by reason
ot its cathartic effects cannot be used
as a beverage. It should be in every
household.

• lilood Poison
Is very liable to follow contact of the
hands or face with what i* known as
poison ivy, especially in hot weather
or if the body is perpiring freely. The
trouble may subside for a lime, only to
appear in aggravated form when oppor
tunity offers. The great purifying
powers of Hood’s Sarsaparilla thor
oughly eradicates every trace of poisou
from the blood, as the cures it has ac
complished conclusively show. It also
cures scrofula, salt rheum and all other
affections arising from impure or poi
soned blood.

Adjunct to the Old, Reliable
Firm.
The many friends and visitors of
the New York Store in Jackson will
be pleased to note that the grand old
hous has changed into a stronger,
one know'll now as the Smith, Ethridge
Company. I hey have associated with
them, that wide-awake business man,
Mr. R. L. Dough try, of Rrunswick,
Ga., but formerly of Flovilla.
'l'bis new team has converted the
old New York Stores into three grand
buildings, each of which is 50 feet broad
by 100 feet deep. They will be filled
with the choicest goods that can be
bought in the eastern markets. The
new firm intends to push the war ou
high prices to the wall. They will
continue to give their customers more
goods for the money than any hou ge
in Middle Georgia.
When you go to Jackson do not fail
to call on the Smith, Ethridge Co., if
you do you will lose money. Money
saved is money made, and the Smith
Ethridge Co. will save you lots of it if
you favor them with your trade. You
need not go to Atlanta any more, they
will koep everything you need.
Messrs. F. S. Ethridge and Mr.
R. L. Daughtry will leave for New
\ ork to-moriuw, where thev will buy
one of the largest stocks ever brought
to the City of Jackson. Being astute
business men they will purchase bar
gains which will be given their custom
ers at a minimum cost.
MU. A. A. MKYEIt MAKES MVBIC;
Responds to a Call of tl»e Mojave*.
Chief and Brothers of Mojave Tribe.
It gives me unspeakable pleasure to
voice the sentiments of my tribe, in res
ponse to the cordial, hearty welcome,
which has been extended to us. While
we have come to you, in war paint and
feathers, our unssiou is a peaceful and
happy one. VV e come to emulate our
forefathers, to exemplify the primitive
red man, to follow what" is good, noble
and virtuous, in thW North American
Indian That there exists in his char
acter many traits which are worthy to
be possessed hy all men, cannot be
doubted. Of his many habits, it oc
curs to me, that there is none more
worthy to be followed by organizations
of the present day, than the Indian cus
tom of one tribe, or representatives of
a tribe, visiting another. Where is the
American, be he red man or pale face,
who has not heard of the immortal vi»
it of the Chieftain Hiawatha to the far
and distant land of the Dacot-ahs’, from
whence he brought the lovely Laughiug
water? And while our object is not
such as was Hiawatha’s onr purpose is
as good, as high, as elevatiug.
We have accepted the hospitality of
your wigwam, iu order that Cherokees
of the North may impart what knowl
edge they possess, to their younger
•Southern brothers. Our chiefs have
left their native rocks, • on-ciou*
of a well earned reputation for sagaeitv
jind courage. By patience aud indus
try, that same degree of u isd m and
l-raVcry can be | osscssed by Vou, broth
er* of Mojave, imitate all that is good
and noble : cast aside with scorn, and
disdain «li that is degrading ami low.
Then indeed,will you be worthy of the
name ol a red man.
And, I woold here remark, tint al
though hut a few moons since, was 1
taken into the fold of the Cherokee,
and adopted as a child of the forest, the
impression has been formed ujion my
mind, and grown stronger and stronger,
until it ha* in fact, become firmly fas
tened upon me, that the Indian should
not live in himself, or in his tube, fie
should go among hi* brothers, should
notice their habits, should learn and
profit thereby.
M iny great suns ago, when the pale
face first set his foot u|>oii this reserva
tion, he found the sons of the forest in
almost constant communication with [
each other. In times of plenty and
prosjeiity, the Chiefs of the Northern
and Eastern tribe!’ wended tbeir foot
steps westerly and southerly, for the
purposes of pleasure. Iu times of fam
ine and adversity, they went for that
assistance, which a friendly tribe al
ways extended to another. In time*
of peace, when all men were eager to
aid each other, the tribes visited, in or
der that their young men might partic
ipate • the knowledge to be g skied
abroad. And when the war trumpet's
loud blast had proclaimed that men
were enemiesffcrione were as quick as
the red man to rush to the land of a
foe, to destroy his vil'ages, his homes
and his works. Our advent to this
wigwam is for the purpose of casting to
the winds, that b'ow over this reserva
tion, the standard of ihe order, hearing
thereon its blight, insignia, that all may
see and feel its effects. How majestic
does it tower above the roaring waters
and the mighty trees of the forest 1
Shining brightly at all timos, and upon
every occasion, it is a banner to which
all may stoop, having thereon these
words, Freedom, Friendship a..d Char
ity
Chiefs and Brothers ! Have you ev
er pondered over them ? VVliat loftier
symbol, what prouder device, what
greater and more glorious motto -can
be possessed by any organ iza*6-n ?
Freedom, that which mankind holds
even deater than life itself, and which
is the very basis of the government of
the laud in which we live. Who could
more appreciate this, than our forefath
ers ? Freedom of speech, of thought,
of action, is guaranteed to nil. Cher
ish and preserve this liberty, above all
things, for men have died, that it might
lire !
Friendship stands next, worthily
supported on either side. How dear
to human heart is this world ! It is one
which binds men to closer relationship,
causes one to know his fellow, and to
care for him. And when I sneak of
friendship, 1 do not mean an artificial
lid assumed attitude hut something
real, true and loyal. That which
causes one to call another by the en
dearing term of “friend,” to sympathise
with liiin in distr- ss, and to rejoice with
him in prosperity.
Last, biit by no means, least of these
bright triple 1 *, standi Charity, that
greatest of human virtues. Aye! the
very synonym of humanity. The
charity of which I would have you
tliiuk, is not that, which alone co -sists
in giving financial i-n Ito humanity. I
would have you m derstaml it to in.-an
that, which impels a Mian to aid his
brother with friendly advice, when nee
essarg, to gve cheering counsel to
those ill need thereof, and to render
such assistance as would Ik: desired by
oue, if placed in similar circun.st-nees.
These are the guides of our order.
And although, at timos, the tribes
met iu sanguinary conflict, when the
shrill cry of battle rose above other
sound, when the blight rays of the sun
Hashed upon the glitteiing steel, and
nought was seen save the bloody spear
and whistling arrow, hurled against a
vengeful foe by his brother ; still, there
were other occa ions, when the tom
ahawk was buried, and red men met
with |>eaceful intent, when Cherokee
and Mojave, Creek and Seminole,
stood together, as we do upon this
sleep. Such is the character of visit
which Cherokee lias made, ami for the
unbounded hospitality which has been
extended to us, allow me to again thank
you.
No oue dou lits that Dr. Sages Ca
tarih Remedy really cures Catarrh,
whether the di>ea-e be recent or of
long standing, because the makers of it
clinch their faith iu it .with a SSOO
guaranteed, which isn’t a mere news
paper guarantee, but “on call” in a
moment. That moment is when you
prove that its makers can't cure you.
The reason for their faith is this : Dr.
Sage’s remedy has proved itself the
right cure for ninety-nine out of oue
hundred cases of Catarrh in the Head,
and the World’s Di-pensary Medicial
Association can afford to take the risk
of you being the one hundredth.
The only question is—are you will
ing to make the test, if the makers are
willing to take the risk? If so, the
rest is easy. You pay your druggist 50
cents and the trial begins. If you’re
wanting the SSOO you'll get somethu g
better —a cure.
