WEEKLY S TIMES. J. A. FOCCHE, Editor. Entered at thepostoffice at McDonough Oa., as second-class mail matter. McDonough. Ga., Dec. 9, 1892. DUTCH TOWN. As we have seen nothing in The Weekly from Dutch Town in quite awhile, and thinking probably you would like to know what the people in “these parts” are doing ; we thought, perhaps, it would be meet and proper— as no one else will do it —to take up our rusty pen and proceed at once, without further ceremony. Everything is quiet in New Ger many just now, so far as I know ; but, of course it includes a very vast amount of territory. Consequently somethiugs happen within her borders “very occa- sionally.” In fact it is not uncom mon now-a-days to hear of somethings happening all over these U. S. A. I suppose ye heard that Grover Cleveland was elected president, and that Harrison was very much uuelect-. ed. I have, and if I mistake not I read a short paragraph in the Atlanta Constitution, the .Journal, or some other paper, announcing the election of Grover Cleveland. Well, his Corpu lency will soon occupy the seat of the man who did litterally knock the socks off of Grover four years ago. They are even now, and after the 4th of March next the other fellow will March down and out, for, at least, four years. Then, of course, the other fel low may knock the socks off of Grover again. We can’t tell; mighty changes take place, always, sometimes. Hut let this be as it may, no matter who is president, we hope the sun will con tinue to rise in the east, and set in the west; that the regular seasons may come and go, and that the earth may continue to revolve in its origiual orbit around the sun, auuually, as in days of yore. Well, the elections are not all over yet. Two primaries were held last week—Democratic and People’s party. Many, y-e-a very many candidates on both sides were looking with fond an ticipations for the nominations of the various county offices. Well, I reckon they are all worthy aspirants, and would fill the offices with equitable jus tice to all, and credit to themselves ; but they can’t all hold office at once. Some will have to wait, and some may never get there at all; but there are hundreds aud thousands of good peo ple all over this country, who are well qualified to fill the various offices, who never held office, never offered for office and never will, who would love to serve the dear people. So, if your pole is not lung enough to knock the persimmon, just do like the rest of us —do the best you can. And now a word to all the candidates, whether you be Jews or gentiles, successful or un successful, p l-e-a-s e look down upon us, and smile upon us with that same sweet smile ye bad before the election, and let us shake your paw, and don’t forget to ask us if the old ’oman and the babies are well just as ye did when ye was a candidate lest we lose coufi deuce in ye. See? The farmers in this community have gleaned the cotton patches, sold their cotton, and, many of us, alas 1 have spent the money. Short cotton crops together with short prices produces long faces, and long grocer's bills some times. A larger acreage, however, was planted in corn this year than usuab and a larger yield was had than for many years previous. This will have a tendency toward shortening the gro cer’s bill if not the long faces. There has also been a larger acreage sown iu wheat than usual. So, taking every thing into consideration, the prospect for another year is not so unfavorable as it might have been. Let’s be thank ful. The stentorian voice of the modern Nimrod together with the musical ca dence of the parti-colored hound, and an occassional toot of old Brindle's born, produces when blended together a doleful sound and is sufficient evr dence that the time is near at hand when old Reynard must yield to the inevitable or make tracks thick and fast to a less sanguinary section. Go it Brer Fox. Sic him Tige ! Dec. 5 th. Don Jr an. At Rest. Little Joe, the infant of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Saudifer died on the eight of November, after suffering a long time with rheumatism. She was a sweet little girl, only eighten months and twelve days old. As He who doeth all things well called her from us, let us live to meet the sweet little jewel up in heaven there to part no more ; and remember that Jesus says, “Suffer little children to come unto me, for such is the kingdom of heaven. Asleep iu the arms of Jesus, Resting for evermore, Where there’s no more suffering; On Heaven’s peaceful shore. LIST OK APPOINTMENTS Of the North Georgia >l. E. Confer ence for the Incoming Year.
