Well I'll tell you the great in ternational fair of Atlauta has closed, the criminal branch of Henry C>unty Superior court has adjoined, and the question naturally arises what will happen next. The next big thing I’m looking for is an all-day presidential election, which will happen on the 6:h of November. So come out all you democrats and well filled basket*—no, pockets of tickets I mean aud pu‘ them in for Bryan. We will want a big vote polled for Mr. Bryan so we can have a whole lot of votes to spare, aud all we don’t need in Georgia we cau send to Ohio and some other doubtful states. The next big thing I am expecting to occur after the election is a whole lot of government appointees getting out and a whole lot getting in. * It will be ‘rats to your holes” aud don’t you forget it. lam looking for that very thing to happeo. Now ufter all these things are over then what ? We cau’t afford to lie still till Christmas, before ■we have something funny.

I aim to go myself lor I have a lew acquaintances down Jhere and they will be glad to see me I loow. I didn’t get to go to the At lanta show, nor to Macon, nor to Grif- Sn. So I’ll say to you Jackson folks that if 1 cm b rrow some clothes that will do to wear in company you may look fer m», for I love to go to Jacksou auyway, aud on euch an oceasiou as the carnival will b- it will ba doubly sojoy able, for Jackson never does things by halves I dou’t drink liquor, oor I don’t cuss, nor I don’t preach, but I do love to have a iittie tun occa siojally, and I duu’c think of anything that would beat going down aud min gling with our Butts county neighbors on the oth and 6 h of December next. Now, ifjauy of you follows waot to go and bavu’t got the money you can j t«t call on me, and I’ll give you a ticket—to—stay at home, for it doesn’t matter which side of tbe river a man is on if he basn t got any mouev. l’rylu yours, Ignoramus.
