The adjourned term of Terrell Su
perior Court, which was to have con
vened at the Court House on Monday
last, has been postponed by Judge
Harrell until Thursday, the 3rd of Au
gust, or 6uch time as may suit the
convenience of those having business
in that Court.
Plantebs Warehouse. —See Advor- 1
tisement of Dodd & Simmons, Ware- 1
house & Commission Merchants. The i
reputation enjoyed by both members 1
of this Firm, as men of energy, integ- 1
rity and unsuppassed businoss quali
fications, is sufficient guarantee for
those who desire to send their cotton
to Dawson, and all that is necessary
is for the public to k now that such a
copartnership has been formed.
To Distillers. —We have received
a notice from the Assistant Assessor
U. S. Internal Revenue, 2nd District
of Georgia, in regard to distilling liq
uors. The law requires a special tax
of SSO, and brandies have also to be
guaged by a U. S. G linger. Those
interested can get any desired infor
mation by addressing S. T. Moore,
Americus, Ga.
AVe have examined the drawing of
the proposed county Jail, and if erect
ed according to this plan, it will not
be a bad looking house by any means
Mr. H. Atkinson, Architect and Su
rerintendontof the Dawson Car Works,
drew up the plan, and although we
bad great confidence in liis ability in
this lino before, we aro now convinced
that he is master of that art.
Unlucky Fishing Excursion. —Mr.
J- 13. Avant, of our town, together
xitk a number of citizens from the
country, went last week to Pino Is
land, Calhoun co., on a fishing and
bunting excursion. Mr. A. lost a
very valuable horse, and he was tak
en very ill, but was fortunate in shar
ing the attention of Dr. Shelby-, who
» ever ready to render aid under such
circumstances.
Surely there are some of the clev
erest people in Dawson that ever
blessed any neighborhood. As proof
°f this fact, we mention Uncle Jolin
“y Asbury, who from ago and infirmi
ty) sometimes finds it difficult to get
ebout, and in his feebleness plodded
bss way to the hungry writer’s resi
dence, and presented him with a bas
ket of the finest peaches we havo soen
this soason. We are also indebted to
Mr. B. H. Hood ior an invitation,
"■hich we accepted, to his residence to
e ®t peaches.
Railroad Meeting.— A railroad
Meeting was held at Morgan on Sat
urday lagt, and was addressed by Col.
kelson Tift, President of the Albany,
Mobile & New Orleans Railroad. If
n °t misinformed, the object of the
meeting was to ascertain whether or
they could get the extension of the
Road by that town. —
R*e effort, if an effort at all, failed,
and we suppose the citizens
®f Calhoun have concluded to wait for
developments before subscrib
-1EI? too liberally to any- railroad enter
prise.
Scddeiv Death.— Mr. J. W. Foin
, ex k)r, of Baker county, accompanied
oy his wife, came to Dawson woek be
ore last. The wife took the cars at
ms point for the purpose of visiting
f r relatives, and Mr. P., after selling
1 load cf cotton which he brought to
roarkc-t, returned to his home with the
understanding that he should meet his
' 6 the depot on the 27th (to-day),
-n arriving at his home, he retired in
~!‘ 6 a Pparent usual health, and was
•°imd dead in Lis bed next morniDg.
Sunday School Celebration at Nl' v
Hope. We had the ploasuro of meet
ing with the people of New Hope in
their annual festival on last Friday.
About one year ago, we enjoyed the
hospitalities of the same neighborhood,
and glad were we when we learned
that there was to be anothor reunion
of friends and neighbors, and that we
were honored with an invitation. We
found tho little ones, the future hope
of the country, and the Sunday School
cause were to receive the honors of
tho occasion, and that tho committee
arra ngements had secured, as ora
tor of tho day-, Professor Armstrong,
one of the most ardent and able ad-
vocates of the cause. The school, un
der the direction of the Superinten
dent, J. S. Wimberly, and his teaeli
j ers > together with a largo nud atten
,tivo audience, assembled in the Church
| at 10i o’clock, and the exorcises oow
| rneneed by singing some appropriate
pieces of music, under the lead of Air.
E. Bridges, after which tho speaker
was introduced, and for moro than an
hour held the entire assembly- spell
bound, and never before lias the Sun
day School cause been more eloquent
ly, faithfully, and we trust successful
ly represented. A procossion was
then formed, and tho little ones
marched to a table loaded down witli
the substautials and delicacies of the
soason. After they had taken posi
tion, the invitation was extended to
all, and a committee of ladies and gen-
I tlernen waited on the tablo ala Geor
gia style.
Dinner over, the children, led by
that jovial, big-heartod Clark, entered
into tho plays that interested both
large and small, and an hour was
spent very- pleasantly. Again tho au
dience assembled in the Church, and
listened to speeches, instructive and
interesting, delivered by Judge L. M.
j Lennard and W. C. Dodd. We left
I the grounds thankful that we had
| again enjoyed tho hospitalities of this
| enterprising neighborhood, uud glad
|to know that corn, cotton and tho B.
& A. R. R. had not taken entire pos
session of their hearts and heads.
Temperance Sermon.- —lt was our
pleasure, on Sabbath evening last, to
listen to a most excellent sermon on
tho subject of Temperance, at the Bap
tist Church, by Rev. W. G Parks, at
the roquest of the I. 0. G. T. This
Order, together with the Cold Water
Templars, composed of the small chil
dren of our town, met at their Hall at
3 o’clock in the afternoon, and after
the necessary arrangements, headed
by tho proper officers, the procession
marched to the Baptist chuich, whore
a large crowd had already gathered
to hear the sermon. The services
were opened by singing and prayer,
and then followed the sermon, the j
text for which is found in Proverbs, j
23rd Chap., 29-32 verses, and reads!
as follows:
29. Who hath yvoe ? who hath sor
row ? who hath contentions ? who hath
babbling ? who hath wounds without
cause V who hath redness of eyes ?
30. They that tarry long at the
wine ? they that go to seek mixed
wine.
31. Look not thou upon tho wine
when it is red, when it givetli his col
our in the cup, when it moveth itself
aright.
32. At the last it biteth like a ser
pent, and stingeth like an adder.
After giving an expose of tho text
proper, the speaker surveyed the en
tire field of crime, portrayed it as ful
ly as his limited time would admit,
aud traced the cause of a vast amount,
of crime to intemperance; showed:
that the evils of this vico wore not coo- j
fined to barrooms alone, but that oft
times the seeds of immorality are sown
by tho gay aud apparently innocent.
The expressed hope and belief of the ;
speaker that the cause of temperance j
was tho great moral lever, which iu \
connection with tho Church, should
revolutionize the world, was truly in
spiring, aud should encourage every
one to give aid and strength to the
Temperance cause.
Another Fair.— We have received
a catalogue of goneral and special pre
miums to be awarded to successful
competitors at tho Second Grand An
nual Fair of tho Cotton States’ Me- j
chanics and Agricultural 1 air Asso-.
ciation, of Augusta, Ga., which com-
mences Tuesday, Oct. 31st, and con
tinues five days. We notice in tho
arrangement and classification of pre
miums, provisions have beon made
for the encouragement of every branch
of industry, aud with the officers of
the Association, the energy, capita),
&c., that can be brought to bear, there
is nothing to prevent the Fair from
being a grand success*. Those desir
ing to compete for premiums, under
any of the various headings, can get
any desired information by addressing

A Tew Words to the I.udiev
Many ladies, particularly mothers nursing,
complain of a tired, listless feeling, or com
plete exhaustion, on arising iu tbe morning.
On the wife aud mother devolves the respous
sibility of regulating the duties of tlie houses
bold Her cares are numerous, and the men
tal a- well as the physical powers are fre
quently called into requisition. She often
finds her slightest occupation a weary task
and existence a burden, while at the same
time she has no regular disease. Ilostetters
Stomach Bitters, if resorted to at tbis period,
will prove an unfailing remedy for this an
noying lassitude. Toe effects of tbis potent
agent are soon seen in tbe tosy cheek and
elastic step of the bead of the family, as with
restored health and renewed spirits she takes
her accustomed place in the family circle.
If this friend in need be regularly used, those
depressing symptoms will never be complaius
ed of, and not ouly would lassitude not be
experienced, but many diseases following its
advent be avoided. Asa medical agent it
has no equal, while its pleasing flavor and
healthful effects have made it a geueral fa
vorite. It is free from all properties calcu
lated to impair the system, *nd its opera
tions are at once mild, soothing, and efficient

MOORE COTTON Ml
Established in 1852—Formerly at Double Wells.
ALSO, A GENUINE PATTERN OF
The Griswold Gin*
THE UNDERSIG NED, having resumed the mnnufueturo of the above Giu,
pr pose *o make it what it was before liio war—“ The favorite of tho
South.” Our work stands upon its merits, and we think this a sufficient guar
antee. IVe have secured the services of seine of the best mechanical talent
in the Northern shops, in eddition tn some of tho best workmen from tlie shop
of the late Samuel Griswold Mr. Clias. Gurduer, who served eight years
apprenticeship under E Carver & Cos., at East Bridgewater, Mass., and who
was employed as Superintendent of the Double Wells shop, from the com
mencement of the manufacture of the Moore Cotton Gin, until i’s suspension,
is again at his poet, and wl'l give each Gia ins personal inspection bis re it
leaves the shop.
In calling the atlonticn of pluuters to our Cotton Gins, we desire that they
should notice the improvements wo offer, which are substantially as follows :
Jk PORTA BUR ROBB box,
For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grate, is used ; the object of
which is to improve in the quantity ginned, lessen tho quantity and improve
the quality of lint. Also, to gia damp or wet cotton ; to alter the picking or
separating the lint from tho seed—either to take moro lint off, or less lint from
the seed, as circumstances require. VVe use both the common Roll Box and
a Swinging Front. The latter is arranged to let out all the seeds and hulls
in a moment, and is very easily managed.
THE GIN BRUSH
We ineke, eannot be excelled by any hair brush used Ttio bristles arc all
diawn in by a cord, an 1 the timber is all selected from the hi st lumber, well
sbusoned • and every brutih is made peifectly tiro and rut pro< f.
CYLINDER A-NID BRUSH BOXES,
Are both oscillating and plain. Cm furnish either, as may be ordered. We
1 ue them with the best babbit metal.
Gils: SAWS.
We make nil tho saws that wo use from the best Englidi Cast Steel, and o
any size that may be desired. We employ, to superintend and manufacture
our saws, one of tho best saw-makers iu tho Soutn, aud our machinery for the
manufacture of Gin Saws canuot be excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING MILL.
We arc ibe only siicccseful manufacturers of this important and useful in
vention—the Cotton Gin, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. It
will hardly bu necessary here to allude to the immense saving and economical
use of crushed cotton seed as a manure. We received a gold medal as a pre
mium, from the Fair of the Cotton Planter’s Convention, held in Macou, Ga.,
1800, for the best Cotton Seed Crusher attached to tho Gin Stand, to cru-h
the seed as lust as it escapes from tho Roll. We refer to some of the many
certificates that v o have ou the subject.
TRIAL OF GINS.
We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it
leaves the shop-old tt now ones.
REPAIRING OF OLD GINS.
We have a complete assortment of the very bi s'. Cotton Gin Machinery in
the country, and make repairing of old Gins a specially. Planters will do
well to send in their old Gins and have them made as good as new, at a much
less cost than anew one can bo bought for. buud on your orders util eld
Gins early * .

SEWING MACHINE
IN THE_WORLD.
T have secured the Agen-y for the
*■ celebrated
FLOREIfCE SEWING MACHINE,
and am prepared, from n personal
knowledge of it, as well as by certifi
cates from tbrso who have used them,
to testify to its superior excellence.
The following are the advantage*
claimed for this Machine oVer all oth
er.:
It is the only kind of Machine that
makes four kinds of Bti’.eh, three of
which are made on no other* Machine
and aro stronger and more eDeHo than
any other.
It is tho only Machine that eftf'sew
in more than one direction, baviffg «*
reversible ioed.
It has an improved hetnmer, ma
king uoy wid h of hem, and easily
managed, owned exclusively by the
Florence Company.
It will hem any thing and make
perfu’t cornels
It he m», foils, cords, braids, tucks,
quilts, braids, gathers, &o„ without
basting.
It mukes a gather ami sews it to a
band at one operation perf.c'ly, (uu
equaled in this )
It is the only Machine having a self
adjusting shuttle tension—a great im
provement over all others, tendering l
it easy to do good work on any fabric
' It fastens the end of a seem butter
and quicker than a seamstress can.
The Florence Sewing Machine is
sithplfi m oonHiruction, and requires so'
little to change for anv kind of wotk,
that its operation can be easily under
stood.
Every part 7s fctiocg nod durable ;
its motions ure all positive, not depen
dent on the variable and uncertain ac»
tion of springs, hence it ib Hlniost iin
possiblo for a Florence Machine to get
really out of order, or not to sow if
threaded right.
The Machines aro warranted in
every particular.
I m end ever/ Florence Machine I
sell shall give entire satisfaction, sus
taiuiig its reputation an being the
most reliable Kewing Machine in use.
All I ask is for you to try the Machine.
