1 lie year 18<S1 is passed, anil a new one is again upon us.
It behooves everybody who till’s the soil to be on the lookout and
make his preparations for a new crop, and also consult his own
interest, and use such Fertilizers as will prove most beneficial to
land and plant, From the many testimonials below will be seen
that the Franklin Ammoniated Dissolved Bone has been used by
a great many of our best planters and citizens of this county for
several years with great satisfaction. I claim to sell this year,
1885, a still better article than ever. The Guano is made up en
tirely of animal matter and such ' other ingredients as are most
available to the plant and a good food for same, this assurance
having been made me by the company’s general agent, for whom
I am selling. I therefore invite everybody to get my prices before
purchasing elsewnere. Special terms and prices to parties who
ibuy car load lots. The different brands of Guano Which I handle
rare Rialto. Guano, Grange’s Mixture, Franklin’s Ammoniated

Mr. S. Schwarzweiss, Agent, for Franklin's Ammoniated Dissolved Done
and Franklin's Acid, Waynesboro, Ga.
Dear Sir: Tliele seems to have been a report started in this part of
the county that the FRANKLIN GUANO is not up to the standard, and
not as represented by you. As you have sold a great deal of the Guano,
and I having bought largely of it myself, in order to satisfy myself and
friends as to the quality of the Guano, I had a member of the State
Chemistry, General Thomas, of Atlanta, to come down and take a sam
ple of the Franklin Guano to analize. I received an answer a few days
ago, in which lie states that the Guano is all right, in every respect up to
the standard, and contains the full amount of ingredients as hrandeci on
the sacks. This will probably afford you a great deal of satisfaction, as
it will those who are using the Franklin Guano. Very respectfully,
(Signed.) R. T. JONES,

'Mr. S. Schwarzweiss, Agent, Waynesboro, Ga.
Dear Sir: Since writing to you last April about the FRANKLIN
GUANO, I will now state that I distributed the Franklin along side the
Good Luck and Turner Guano, all equal valuation, the latter having
been used by me in old ante-bellum days, and was then known to he as
good a guano as there was coming South. It cost me this year fifty dol
lars per ton, spot cash, at factory in Baltimore, and I have the assurance
from the maker that the Guano is now as good as ever, and up to the
old standard. Also the Good Luck is considered an A one Guano. My
crops have all received equal attention and work, and I never could dis
cover any difference on my crops where the different guanos were dis
tributed.' This proved to me that the Franklin is as good as any. I
surely shall use the Franklin again next year. Very respectfully,
(Signed.) ItOB’T. T. JONES.

Mr.S. Schwarzweiss, Agent, Waynesboro, Ga.
Dear Sir: In reply to yours of late date inquiring about the Franklin
Ammoniated Dissolved Bone, will say since the last six years, during
which time I have used the Guano, it has more than pleased me, and
surpassed any I have ever used, and has proven itself all that is claimed
for it. I shall increase the amount used by ine this year, thirty-five tons,
to fifty tons next year. Yours very truly,
(Signed.) W. J. HATCHER.

Mr. S. Schwarzweiss, Agent for Franklin's Ammoniated Dissolved Bone,

Dear Sir: In answer to your inquiry about the FRANKLIN GUAN(^
used by me during this year, will state that it is the only kind of Fe
lizer used by me tins season, and I am more than pleased with the result.
Will buy from you again next year. Yours very respectfully,

and Franklin’s Acid, Waynesboro, Ga.
Dear Sir: Your favor of the 1st inst. inquiring about the FRANKLIN
GUANO, bought from you the past season, came duly to hand. In reply
will state that I have used this year the l’atapsco, State Standard and
Franklin’s Ammoniated Dissolved Bone. The latter proved to be equal
ly an good as the other Fertilizers that I have used and expect to buy
from you again next year. Vory respectfully,
(Signod.) T. B. ROGERS.

An Important Discovery.
The most important discovery is
that which brings the most good to
the greatest number. Dr. King’s
New Discovery for consumption,
coughs and colds, will preserve the
health and save life, and is a perfect
boon to the afflicted. Not only does
it positively cure consumption, hut
coughs, colds, bronchitis, asthma,
hoarseness, and all affections of the
throat, lungs, and chest, yield to its
wonderful curative powers. If you
doubt this, get a free trial bottle at
Lewis It. Ford & Co.’s drug store.

In this city, on the 11th inst., Mr.
Charlie E. Blount, in the 36th year
of his age, after a violent illness, of
two weeks of pneumonia. He had
been in had health Aor several
months prior ro his (loath, and the
system was too\weoA to hear the
Dm Mason llrlilnil the liars Again.
United States Deputy Marshal
Murphy arrived in this city by the
early train Saturday morning, r ad
it was soon known that lie held a
warrant for the arrest of ex-Deputy
Marshal B. F. Mason. Mason had
been a United States deputy
marshal, hut had been dismissed for
crookedness in office. He went to
Augusta and extorted money from
Mrs. Beeehner, a poor shop-keeper,
for and in consideration of his not
informing against her for having in
her possession ten or twelve empty
cigar hoses with the stamps in tact.
He also played the same game on
a party named Anderson In the
same city, giving receipts for seven
dollars in each case, all the time
pretending to he a United States
deputy marshal.
Mason was arrested last Novem
ber, on a capias, hut escaped from
Deputy Marshal J. G. Harris while
the latter was with him in a pleas
ure resort where they had gone for
Mason to procure hail. Nothing was
heard of him for some time, until
information was received by Mar
shal Wade that he was in Millen,
gambling. Ho immediately had an
alias capias issued, and placed it in
Ihe hands of Deputy Marshal Mur
phy, who was at Scarboro, Scriven
county. This officer immediately
went to Millen, where he found
Mason by the corpse of his mother.
This being a peculiar case, he tele
graphed to Marshal Wade for in
structions. Ho was instructed to
wait until the burial was over, and
then make the arrest. But Mason
did not wait for the conclusion of
the obsequies of his mother, but
skipped lie town at once.
No clue was had of him for seve
ral days, and the arresting officer
came to tills city on the lookout for
him. Mason was not here when
the officer arrived, and left in
structions with our Town Marshal
Hubbard Blount to arrest Mason if
he made his appearance in town.—
Marshal Murphy had been gone
only a few hours when Mason made
his appearance in town, having foot
ed through the country from Millen.
Our police officer did not feel entire
ly safe in making the arrest, and
telegraphed to Marshal Wade, at
Savannah, that Mason was here, and
asked for instructions. The reply
was quickly wired back to arrest
and hold him until the deputy mar
shal could arrive. All this consum
ed time, and it was late in the even
ing before Mason was “coppered,”
when policeman Blount in compa
ny with Sheriff Haeseler made
the arrest. Mason, showed some
signs of “kicking” when approach
ed by the officers, but seeing there
was no chance for him succumbed
to the inevitable, and yielded to the
strong arm of the law.
He was placed in jail, and on Sun
day evening Marshal Murphy ar
rived and made a formal arrest.
The marshal left with his prisoner
on the 11 o’clock train Monday
morning for Savannah, where they
arrived on schedule time. Mason
is now safe behind the bars, where he
will remain until released by due
process of law.

A few evenings ago, we wove
how-rf a box of beautiful japonicas,
sent by Mvs. J. T. Reeves, of Law-
tonviile, to a friend in this city.
They were arranged in the box in
an artistic boquot, and the blending
of the pure, creamy white and the
flashing scarlet was indeed beauti
ful, and altogether marked the
donor of so pretty a present as a
lady of taste and refinement. These
flowers were grown in the open air
and coming as they did, when old
Winter had bud and bloom locked
in his icy embrace, was enough to
cause one to envy tho possessor of
so rare a flower garden as the ono
must bo from which those were
taken.
The Contested Flections.
Characteristic.
A hoy of this city, just largo
onougli to bo trusted out of sight,
borrowed a gun from a gentleman
in town a ftnv days ago, to go bird
hunting. When tho evening came
tho boy, like an honest young man,
went to return the gun. The father
was away from home, and .his son'
a lad of about 14-years, came out to
recolvo the gun. Ascertaining that
tho gun was empty, ho insisted that
the borrower load it. Tho young
man poured out a common charge of
powder, hut his friend objected most
strenuously to tho small amount
of powder, and insisted that he put
in “lots,” for said lie, “I want the
old man to get a big slinking up
when ho shoots off that load.” If
tho “old man” is not careful, he will
think that there lfas been dynami
ters in town when lie pulls that trig-
R'or.

All the testimony in the contested

matter lias been referred to the

possible to say who will win, both
sides are confident of a favorable
decision. The contests have brought
to light several curious develop
ments. In the first .place some of
the crtqdidates had mot paid their
taxes: \inil, therorore, under the
reported 'ruling /f the governor,
could not lnyve hmd t he offices had
they been eloctou. Several promi
nent gentlomew of the county were
found without/ylieir tax receipts;
it was neglect/anX not intention on
their part tp defnuid the govern

third class of some three or four
who had money in the taV collector’s
hands, and had told biif\ to credit
them with the amount of ^heir tax
es, hut had failed to secure their
receipts. Their votes were fysoard-
ed, which was wrong, and not the
spirit, if it can be warped into the
letter of the law. But tho most as
tounding development brought
out, was the fact that there wero
1,200 or more unqualified illegal
votes polled in the county. This
calls loudly for reform,and us a reg

RICHMOND COUNTY ITEMS.
Special Correspondence Citizen.
Augusta, Ga., Feb. 12,1885.
Dr. Jabe Baxley, near Mechanic’s
Hill, who lias been quite sick with
pneumonia, is slowly improving.
The Catholic fair lias entered
upon its second week, and is doing
successful work in the direction
aimed at.
The weather has been anything
hut favorable for farmers. Very
little progress so far has been made
towards a crop for 18S5.
The death of Mr. Thos. Law
Jones, which has been noticed in
The Citizen, causes much regret
among a host of friends. v
The little French doctoress has
attracted considerable attention in
the streets. The ease with which
she extracts teeth is wonderful.
The many friends of Gen. Lawton
are pleased at the prominence given
him in connection with a cabinet
appointment. We hope his bright
est anticipations may he realized.
The small pox scarce at Thomson
turns out to he more serious than at
first supposed it would be. This
spreading of the loathsome disease
should cause universal vaccination.
Mrs. II. A. Falligant, of Savan
nah, whe has been residing in
Brothersville, is selling her farm,
products, stocks, etc., preparatory to
returning to Savannah. I am in
formed that her varied interests in
Savannah have made this move
obligatory, Her many friends re
gret her departure.
The A. G. & S. R. R. had its first
meeting a few days ago. The
stockholders agreed to bond the
road for $850,000. Bonds to draw 7
per cent, interest. I am fearful
this will prove an injury to the
stockholders. In the event of litiga
tion for any cause, the bondholders
always manage to get the large
loafs.
His Excellency, Gov. McDaniel,
has been in the city on an inspec
tion tour, looking after the convicts.
I am informed he was well pleased
with the management of the camp
near the city. The governor was
the guest of Hon. Pat. Walsh, and
was tendered a public dinner at
Henson’s, at whose table a sump
tuous menu was spread.
The little town of Gracewood,
(named in honor of the wife of Gen.
Evans), out on the narrow' guage
road, has a bright future. I am in
formed there have been already en
gaged thiity building lols, and Col.

Stepping into Mr. S. A. Gray’s
counting-room on business a few
evenings since, we observed Mr.
Sim Garlick busily at work tati a
great ledger. A glance at the work
attracted our attention, and we re
quested the privilege of examining
the work. We turned page after
page, and found everywhere tho
same neatness and system; not a
blot, nor an error was to be found in
all that great book—not even an
erasure, and to-day Mr. Gray, under
the manipulation of Mr. Garlick
has as neat a set of hooks as are to
be found in the state. The chirog-
raphv is pretty and as plain as print,
perfectly correct, without a blemish,
with every; account balanced to a
cent, and a novice can understand
every charge and settlement. Mr.
Garlick should have charge of the
books of one of the great commer
cial houses of some of our large
cities.
—A serious accident occurred at
Buekliend creek, on the main line
of the Central railroad yesterday
morning, which lias delayed all the
trains since. The engine, tender
and some of the cars passed over
the trestle safely, when it gave way
and precipitated eight empty boxes
into the creek. The high water in
the creek renders the work of re
pairing slow and difficult. No one
was hurt.
Mrs. Geo. F. Chidsey, who has
been spending some time with her
brother, Judge T. M. Berrien, In

benefit from Electric Bitters, I fool
it my duty to let suffering Immun

my doctors told me I would have to

and now my leg is sound and well.”

Warren Leland,
whom everybody know* aa the ■uooeaafu)
manager of tho
Largest Hotel Enterprises
of America, *ays that while a passenger from
Now York on board a ship going around Cape
Horn, In tho early days of emigration to Cal
ifornia, he learned that ono of the officers of
the vessel had oared himself, daring the voy
age, of an obstinate disease by the tsaaf ..
Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
Since then Mr. Leland has recommended
Aran's Sarsaparilla in many similar
cases, and he has never yet heard of Its fail
ure to effect a radical care.
Somo yean ago one of Mr. Lit LAUD'S farm
laborers braised his leg. Owing to the bad
state of his blood, an ugly acrof ulous swelling
or lump appeared on tho injured limb. Hor*
riblo Itching of tho skin, with burning and
darting palus through tho lump, made Ufa
almost Intolerable. The leg became enor
mously enlarged, and running ulcera formed,
discharging great quantities of oitremely
offensive matter. No treatment was of any
avail until the man, by Mr. Lb land's dlreo-
tlon, was supplied with Aybr’s Barbara-
him.a, which allayed the pain and irritation,
hcnlod tho sores, removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to use.
Mr, Leland has personally used
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
for Rheumatism, with entire sueoeee ; and,
after careful observation, declares .that, lu
Ills belief, thoro Is no medlolne In the world
equal to it for tho cure of Liver Disorders,
Gout, tlie effects of high living, Salt
Rheum, Soros, Eruptions, and all the
various forms of blood diseases.
Wo havo Mr. Lblanii’s permission to invite
all who may desire further evidence In regard
to the extraordinary curative powers of
Aykii'b Saiibavabilla to see him person
ally either at hie mammoth Ooean Hotel,
lzmg Ilranoh. or at tho popular Loland Hotel,
llroailway, 27th and 28th 8treeta, New York.
Mr. I.kland'8 extensive knowledge of the
good douo by this unequalled eindicator of
blood puisoae enables him to give Inquire! j
much valuablo Information.
