Correction. —Last week we stated
that Mr. Robert Kennedy, of Albany 5
and Miss Annie Stevens, of Terrell
county, were married. It should have
been Mr. Robert Kennedy, of Albany,
and Miss Ella C. Edwards, of Ala.
We regret exceedingly that such an
error should appear in onr paper, but
the fault was not with tisi A gentle
man called and gave us the first names
published as coneet. The Albany
Advertiser has this to say of the
doodle wedding:
“The parties to the happy union Were
Mr. I, Chambers and Miss Sallie Phi
lips ; Mr. Chambers is of Dawson, Ga.
At the same time and place were also
united in wedlock, Miss Ella Edwards
and Mr. Robert Kennedy. A goodly
number of the relatives of Miss Edwards
were present from a distance. Mr.
Kennedy, with his consort will still
continue to reside in Albany, while Mr
Chambers and wife will remain at the
home of the 'bridegroom, Dawson, Ga.
It was a happy consummation of the
bright hopes of true and loving hearts,
and we tender them many congratula
tions and heartfelt wishes for happiness
and prosperity through life’s alternate
lights and shadows. In this pleasant
matrimonial incident we arc gratified
that even the poet has been outside, for
instead of two we have,
Foufroulh with but a single thought,
Four heal t# that beat as ouc.”

Editors Dawson Journal,— Gents:
I must confess that the General As
sembly hrs not as yet made much head
way. Killing time and drawing rations
is about ihe result of it Considerable
time and money has been spent in (Ty
ing to leduce the number of judicial
circuits. The bill was lost in the House
this morning by a vote of 85 for and
65 against reduction; the Chair deciding
that a majority of the members of the
entire House was nece ss.ny on the pas
sage of the bill. You will see that
three votes 11101 e were necessary.
The friends of the measure propose
a reconsideration hi the morning The
question of an e; Ily adjournment isbe
foie a special committee which is to re
port to-morrow. It is the general opin
ion that if t7.'llrequ : iiefom6oto9o days
to reach a final adjournment. The elec
tion for U. S. Senator comes off to-mor
row—one name only will be presented.
Think it probable that the election for
judges will commence Wednesday or
Thursday, and then comes the tug of
war. More anon, W. C. K.

Luv iz one ov them kind ov diseazes
.hat yu kant git, nor git rid ov, with
enny certainty, enny more than yu kan

The suicide iz the greatest pv kow
ards—-he fears life more than he duz
deth.
Mi friend, let Us thank God for one
thing, it is this : The books are to be
balanced in Heavin, not here.
I pitty the poor, mizerable man who
sez “thaie iz no hereafter,” I had
rather be a mule, paralizea in-both
hind legs, than be him.
I kno lots ov people who are trieing
to bull the moral market; they kan
siug the 10 connnandm_>nt thru their
noze and not miss a note; but if they
waut to borrow 65 dollars ov me, they
have got to find an endorser.
Notoriety iz gained hi working for
the applauz ov the world. Reputashun
>z gained bi working for the applauze
ov ourselfs
There iz plenty of people whoze vir
iews are like certain trees, they blossom
regular enuff, but bear no fruit.
This world iz so full of sin and sin
ners that we often cum akrost kouuter
fit lies.
The man who haz- finally suckceeded
in cheating himself in all things iz per
haps as happy as phools ever git to be
in this world.

An’ spose you thinks 1 knant stan my

that you’ve got the best mail and
phemail teechers in Georgy,—that
your skules air the cheepest and best
een the lau. I say skillin’ air cheep !
when hit takes from 2 to 4 dollers a
munth to pay tuishun. 1 used to pay
ole Mr. John Shanks jest 3 dollers a
quarter, an’ I’m smashed ef he wernt
the best teecher I ever seed. He
could outrun, outjmnp or ding down
every boy ’pun the playground, lie
could cuss louder, and spit ful her, and
slash more boys than yer ever seed.
So if ever I does teech i’ll fuller his
plan. But you don’t seam to think
I culd succede a teech in’thar (me and

You see i’m atter makin grub fer the

bout teechin an turn my tention to
edituiin or practisin law. I’m purty
gud ’pon a speach, fer I tride that an
cum out purty well, but that were in
a batin sosiety, an thar wernt no pay
in hit. Ef you thinks i’m yer man
to editor fer you, you can jest drap
me line and say what you'll giv. I
wont take no “20 or 25 cents a day an
fed myself.” Sarned ef i dont teech
skule fust. Now, I see you’ve clamed
kin with me by callin my last letter
“Frum yer kountry cossin.” I didn’t
know' afore that 1 war kin you, but
alter considerin bout hit, maybce we
air kin, soef you thinks sol knowyou’l
giv me a lif, an ef you dos't want no
help in the editurin bizness, you can
teil me what you thinks of the Law,
but mind, I aint gwine to run fer no
otfis of no kind,—dont keerhow many
ov my 1 teens wants to vote fer me.
I air bin a bailifer wunst, an if i ever
git fergivin for hit, i’ll never take no
more offis in mine, j’m bound ter be
Inderpendent ov all sitch. Now. ef
yon cunsidder this here repissile wuth
notisui you can anser hit, an if not,
you can jest pay the postige, an atter
readin hit you can send hit back. 1
aint gwine to “sweep streats n*r
clen out diches.” Thems one occy
pashun I aint ter fuller I’ll cilrk, or
i’ll be skule cummisshuner, or i'll

Dr. Hamilton hr.s a competent corps
of teachers, one of whom is an ex-class
mate of mine. During my scholastic
training in Haid Money I learned that
to excel Miss Dora Mooie was impossi
ble with anyone, and even to keep pace
with her one had to study assiduous y.
Miss Dora is a graduate., and has an ex
perience of several years of successful
teaching, and hence is well qualified for
her present position.
Dr. H., his assistants and pupi's
