THE JOURNAL. J. D. HOYL, F.OITOR. DAWSOiI, (>i:OKIA: - —> > —II THURSDAY MtRNING, March, 14,78 I I I ll A VISIT TO ALBANY Her Coming Fair. As we strcngly suspected that our young friend, Jesse Weston, of the Alln.ny Fetes, ns editors often do, whs “stretching the hlaoket” a little in Ins glowing description, of the pieparat on being made 1 y the Southwest Georgia Industrial Assocutin lor their coin ing fairs in that city, we went over last week to see about it. Soon Blt r our arr'vul, we were driven out to the grounds by the Jesse aforesaid be hind a dashing team. Much to cur gratification we found that all thut we had read and heard about tiio big preparation going on w .s true. \\ e found a large uumbei of hands busily engaged in laying the tounda. tion loi the mainTuilding, which is to he c mpleted in time for the first fair in May nest The building will cost over #2,600, and require 80.000 feet of lumber in its construction. Oilier l.iborers were setting out tree*, flowers and shrubbery, grading walks, dri ves etc. About 1,000 trees hav H been set out, and ihedriv a and walks are fringed with flowers. The grounds are each sed with a substantial fence and (tables for stock arealready built. The drive aluug the liver bank is a very pretty one. There is a stretch of river t Mt least a mile long iu full view from the grounds, affording and txcij 1 nt track for boat racing. Our young friends, Weston and Wilder, both a lean nud lank as ever Cassius was, hare organized a boating club which they have presumptuously named the “Fat Men’s Ciuh,” and will euter for the p:ize offered for the fastest boat. The fact of twj such spindle-shanks c intending in the athletic sport of boating will, no doubt, attract atten tion, and, wh<u thay pull the oars, may to see. The managers of the Southwest Georgia Industrial Associatien are evidently m earnest, and intend to “make a spoon or spoil a horn.” They are Jspeuding a great deal of money, and we hope that their most sanguine expectation may be mure than realized. One thing is certain, they are going to have one ot the beat fair grouuds iu the st ile, and if the people of this section don't sustain them, they (’he people) will miss one of the best opportunities they have ever bad to advance their own inter eats. Much desire is manifested at Albany t.* have Terrell couoty take an active interest in the fain. Those posted is tbe matter say that Terrell has more hue stock than Dougherty, and they are very anxious to have some of out fine hoiees, mu’es, h< gs and cattle on exhibition at their fairs. We met many friends during onr s’ay in Albany who treated us well aud often. Not the least of whom was Mr. Merrick Barnes, of the Barnes House, at whose hospitable board we fared sumptuously every day, and were gratified to see that his constant attention to the comfort of his guest is rewarded with a liberal patronage Mclntosh, of the Advertiser, regaled us for awhile with some very inter* st ing gossip in his comfortable sanctum Evans, of the Hews, had just returned from the court of Rex. at New Or leans, and was looking rather battered and dilapidated after the long trip.— The elder Weston was down the B. & A. R R. e< itirg his sawmill. PKI Boyd, of Leary, was on bis way home from a pleasure trip up the St. Johns, with a pocket full of polished sea beans,—said he enjoyed thj trip very much, but that Florida was a better place to spend money thau to make it. Rev. W, M. Russell, an old veteran oi the Georgia press, was pre paring to start a paper in Orlando, Floiida. The merchants w°re busily engaged sifting cut the few customers that had a little cash from large num ber who wished to buy on a credit. — Anij thus ende*h eur tup to Albany. Ihc Morin. The wind storm of last Sunday seems to have prevailed pretty gener ally throughout the state. In Atlanta a small Episcopal church was blown down and a few poisons who wers tt it at the time slightly injured. The roofs were blown from other buildings in the ei y. Some damage is also reported at other places. Gold s now worth only one cent in the dJlar more than greenbacks. Major Genera!

Are there any old Soldiers among ie> T Co'gross has just passed a hilt granting a pension of eight dollar* permonth toa l surviving soldiers who served in the army or navy fo. 14 day* in the war of 1812, aud the surviving widows of the same. Also restoring to the pension lolls the names of al| those who may have heeu dropped from the buds in constquer.ee of par ticipation iu the rebellion. Those who ser.ed in any of the Indian wars are also entitled to pensions under the bid. The bill allows nc back pay but on'y a pension fioro the time of its passage to the death of the benefit - / aiy. There may be some oMjindian fighters among us who are euiiiled to the ben efit of the bill. We have a copy on baud and will give iulermation to th se wishing it. Call iu, old vets, aud let’s see if you are eutitled tc a peu sion. Suppose we have an editor Govern or next time? What say you broth rer ? There’s Major Jones Thompson. H. H J.

Let’s have an editor Governor. Old Capital, Well, that is e"ough to elect any man governor. We propose that the name of Eugenial Speer, of the Old Capital , be added to the list, and that we draw straws at the next meeting of the press association to decide which one of us shall sacrifice himself for the good of thestatb. Brother Euge uial, in our opinion, would stand a good chance for the place on his own merits, if lie did not persist in hiding so much of his ma(ive, pleasant and intelligent forehead from the public gaze under an odious beaver a world two large for him. Como out of that hat, gentle Eugenial! If the State does not know you aie in there, she strongly suspects it. The Romance of Rockville. —Mr' J. C. Harris of the Atlanta Constitution is soon t > commence a story in the weekly edition of that paper under the above title. Mr. Htrris is the genrleman who, as compiler of the •‘Georgia news” column of the Sa vannah Fetes, and later as one of ibe editors of the Constitution, has achie ved distinction as a writer of humor ous peices. Iu hit line he hat uo superior in the state, and wedonbt not that the‘‘Romance of Rocfcviiie” will be worth reading, which it a darned sight more than we are willing to say of most newspaper stories. Several papers are making nomina tion for tha office of Governor to sue. ceed the present incumbent. Among these nominated are Gen. Toombs Col. Hardeman, Senator Lester, Mr. Malntyre, Ex-senator Norwood, and others. Somebody must be very anx ious ‘ote <he first toname a governor. We have no such ambition. A sad story comes from Texas. A Miss Moore was preparing for marri age and invited a friend, Mies Wil liams, to assist her. In rumaging through a drawer an old pistol was carelessly handled by Miss Williams, resulting in the shooting and instant death of Miss Moore. Bhe was bu ried on the day that was to have been her wedding day, and Miss Wil liams has become insane. Kevins vr Appeabances.—A De troit widow owns aud occupies a co'- tage under the shadow of a church steeple, which is supposed to be in anger of felling when a high wind blows. At midnight, a tew nights ago, when the wild winds t>!e-v fiercely, she got up and dressed, called tbe children up and dressed them, and folded her arms with the remark • “Now, then if that steeple falls and kills u, people will know that we were a respectable family, anyhow. George, you brush up your hair a little more; and, Sarah, you take your leet off the stove-hearth and pin your collar more to the left.” ■ ■ -■ ' Cuthbert Appeal-. A family with two ox teams aod seveal head of ock passed through our town ac Wednes day last, on their way to Worth coun ty from Texas. When they emigrated to the West they did not sell out their land in Georgia, fearing that they might wish to return, and now they have gone back to tbe old homestead, resolved to remain chere.

Hugh Finnegan, of No 402, E. 23d street, died in Bellevue Hospital ou the 4th of December f pneumonia, and a post mortem examination was made. His wife learned of bis death, and while wandering about tbe dead house looking for his body, entered tbe operating room, and fainted on seeing her husband’s corps, that was still bloody. She was taken home by friends and has constantly been haunt ed by tbe spectacle that her husband’s body presented. Yesterday she be came a raving maniac and was locked up in a padded cell in Bellevue Hospit al.— N. Y. World, 2d.

'Seal of Forth Carolina,' at the same pries?” Hytlis are but frymboHof Truth. As the scholar sops in the vain hut beautiful mythologies of the ancients the embodied expiessions of the hun gry hun,no sonl, blindly grouping f-1 tar the Infinite, so the pbysic.an sees in that popular myth of the six teenth cen:ury the fountain of per petual health and youth—sn express ion of the longings ofsuffering humtni- j ty for a remedy that should forever ■ prevent the iurutsion of disease - The wilds ol Europe were ransacked for this wonderful fountain, asd Pone de Leon sought for it in the cypress swamps and tangled everglades of our sunny Fioiida. Men have searched for it everywhere and anywhere but where it really is-in the human body itself. The blood is the real fountain of perpetual health and youth' When this source is oorr upted, the painful and 60now-pioducing effects are visi ble in many shapes. The multifari ous fotms ia winch u manifests it self would l’orm subjects upon which I might write volumes. But as all the varied forms of disease which de peud upon bad blood are cured, or best treated. I y such medicines as take up from this fluid and excrete from the system the noxious ele ments, it is not of practical importance that I should describe each. For instance, medical authors describe abcut fifty varieties of skin disease, but as they all require for their cure veiy similar tieatment, it is of ho prac ical utility to know just what name to apply to a certain foim of skin disease, so you know how best lo cure it. Then again, I might go on and desciibe various kiuds of scrofulous sores, fever sores, white swellings, enlarged glands, andulceis ol varying appea, ance; might describe fiow virulent poison may show its If iu vati jus forms of eruptions, ulcers, sore throat, bony tumors, etc., but as ad these various-appearing manifesta tions of bad blood are cured by a uniform means, j deem such a course unnecessary. Thoroughly cleanse the blood, whiuh is the great fountain ol life, and good digestion, a fair skin, buoyant spirit, vital s'rangtb, and soundness of constitution, will all re turn to us. For this purpose Dr. Pieice’s Golden Medical Discovery and Purgative Pelletsare pre-eminent ly the articles needed. They are war ranted to cure tetter, saltrheum, scald head, St. Anthony’s fire rose rash orerysiplas,ring-worms, pimples, blotches, spots, eruptions, pustules, boils, carbuncles, sore eyes, rough skin, scurf, scrofulous sores and swel lings, fever soies, white swellings, tumors, old sores or swellings, affec tions ot the skin, throat and boner, and ulcers ot the liver, stomach, kid neys. and lungs. Nellie has a four year-old sister Ma y, who complained to her mama that her ’button ahneswere hurting.’ ‘Why, Mattie, you’ve put them on the wrong feet.

It will be apparent to any one, who will ex> amine a Solid Gold Watch, that aside from the necessary thickness for engraving and polishing, the large proportion of the precioas metal used, ia needed onljato stiffen and bold the engraved portions in place, and supply the necessary solidity and strength. Tbe surplus gold ia actually needless, so far as UTiLrfT and beauty are concerned. In JAMES BOSS’ Patent Stiffened Oold Watch Cases, tbie waste of precious mete I is over come, iDd tbe same solidity and strength produced at horns one-third to one-half of the usual east of solid oases. This process is of the most simple nature, as follows : A plate oi composition metal, specially adapted to the purpose, has two plates of solid gold soldered one on each side. The three ate tbeo passed between polished steel rollers, and the result is a strip of heavily plated oompo-i i on, fiom which the cases, backs, centres, bezels, Ac., are cut and shaped by suitable die* and formers. The gold in these cases is sufficiently thick to admit of all kinds of chasing, engraving and enamelling; and engraved cases have been carried un til worn perfectly smooth by lime and use without removing the gold. These cases are for *ale by ail jeweler*, and a r e guaranteed bv .Special Certificate to wear for 20 years.
