We extend our Leartfelt sympathies to the be reaved family. l sl e e Mrs. Senator Brown to this day knits her hushard’s socks, aud; knits also the old-tfashioned purse in which he carries money, re ealling the boast that every Ame. ricin ought to “‘see his gold and silver gleaming through the meshes of hissilken purse.” Mrs, Dr. Mil ler kuits the socks ber hushand wears, and takes great vrilein her handiwork. Each of these ad mirab'e ladies knit a great deal o comnon gcnge into their work, “The year 1882, continued- Judae [Henderson, “was one of the wost fruitful years thet Georgia has ever known. It gave us the larg est cotton crop in the history of the state, the number of bales be ing about 940,000. From that year to the present the cotton crop has oot fallen below 800,000 bales, We had the largest corn crop then about 33,000,000 bushels having becn gathered. The wheat ¢op tooted up 5,000,000, ‘Lhe year 1882 was a good year for nearly everv crop that was putin the ground.” Tue' lightning at Mr, Corl‘;?u's‘ residence in Vineville last [riday | played some pranks; In ove room ! it followed a row ot pails in the floor leaving a scorched track, In another ronm it was attracted by a mirror which it smashed into frags mepts. In apother room it burned | a hole and went throuzgh the heads boird of a bedstead and then through the side-board. s e Y P ey & At a recent meeting of the Nas tional Board of Marine Under writers in New York city. It was decided that other covering than the present hivh priced bag ging would do for cotton. There will not be any discrimination against cotton covered with any light weight closely woven material ‘ot reasonable strength. However if the material is very light, then must be one or two extra bonds and the sample holes be cov ered. The farmers in the cotton growing belt, can and ought to write and “*bust” the trust. i PEN POINTS: Cotton is worth 9 cents. Mr. John Simpson, of Anniston, Ala., was in the city last week. Hon Lewis A roheim, of Albany, wasin the city, on last Monday.

The recent winds have greatly damaged the cotton crop. For a days we will have a great dedl of storm cotton on the market, It is to be hoped that our cotton buvers will make arrangements to buy storm cotton and pay the high est markeu prices for it.

We keep a full live of Tobacco and Cigars, and when you once try our goods you will not use any other. Hillman & Steveus. Mr. T, R. Thointen kad two of his best mules to die last week. One them, “Jumbo,” was well known in our county and town as being pers haps the best dray mule in Souths west Georgia, Mr. Thornten has our sympathy in the loss of both the mules, but espesially is it sad to chronivle the death of our old friend Jumnibo.

Fulton, is never uneertain in what he says, and he proposes iu te-doy's paper to offer first classin ducements to the trade. His cook ing stoves are veritable gems, Ga and see him and take advantage of the bargains he offers. We heard a furmer say recently that the storm in 1882 blew all cf his cotton that were open into the fence corners so that he had no trouble in gathering it up. There were several in the crowd and four of thém offered to treat, thinking that it would be getting off very light under the circumstances, The wind on last Saturday nizht | reminded us omewhat o: the Sep- ! tetmber gale on Saturday night| September 9th, 1882, only it was| not as severe as in 82, Then! chimneys, trees and houses were blown down and the tin on roof of brick stores wece greatly damaged.

Terms easy, Enquire at | this office, THE IRON KING. My dear, pray what shali we do?" Once asked my loving wife; We have no cook, you know, now, To stem the kitchen’s strife; This stooping and cooking Over fires large and hot, It perplexing and vexing, Oh! who has felt it not? “The labors of the kitchen, ~ Since our negroes went away, Were both wilsome and wksome, And still are =o to-day: Can’t you lighten and brighten This load of heavy care, That distresses, oppresses, And drives me to despair?” Said I, «T'll go to FurTox's And there a stove I'il buy, No matter what the price is, Ah Irox Kina I'll try; Then roasting and toasting, Will not wear away your life, But a pleasure and a treasure Be to you my angel wife)” So down to town T hurried, Almest as quick as thought, And there from Joux A. I'urTox, An Iron Kixa I bought; And now broiling and boilice Are the sweetest works in life, No more caring, despairing, Distresses now my wife. Farewell, ye dirty negroes, I'm independent now, For wife can do the cooking, With a smile upon her brow; No whining, no repining, No angry threatenings ring, But my meals now, reveal now, How cheap is Irox Kixa. So now if you'd appease A weary, suffering wife, Her kitchen trials set at ease, Secure a stove for life; [t'll warm you and charm you, Drive discontent away, Both your wife then, and life then, Prove sweet as flowers of May.
