Oar community has been terribly afflict

Peace aud quietness reigned through the

of their way, and everybody left with a
pleasant smile.

Messrs. Clark. Brooks A Co., have pnr-
chased the remaining vacant lot on that

of erecting a drug store on it. Onr dele
gates to the Senatorial convention of this,
tbs twenty-seventh district, have returned,
eld report tho Domination of Hon. Pope
Barrow, of Athens, Georgia, aa uur candi
date for State Senator.
The convention abrogated the rotation
system and adopted the majority m!«.
Upon the abrogation of the rotation sys-
tern tbs delegate* from Kockdal* coanty
withdraw from tha contention, as they
were opposed to iu abrogation aud claim
