Mr. Worth Chambers and Miss
Vittie Hill, on returning from the
Hollingsworth entertainment Friday
night, came very near meeting with
a fatal accident. Shortly after leaving
Hollingsworth, the night being dark,
the buggy ran over a stump and
threw both parties to the ground, but
the horse not becoming frightened
nor seeming wicked disposed they
werc soen in the buggy again and on
their wav home with apparently no
danger ahead. However, just as they
reached Air. Nat. Ayers the horse
became frightened, ran away, throw
ing them'lioth opt hurting them very
badly. Air. Chambers picked np
Miss \ itf.ie, and with the assistance
of the little strength she had left,
managed to carry her in to Air. Ayers’
home where she w s kindly cared for,
while Air. Chambers secured another
buggy and carried her home about
day light Saturday morning. Miss
Vittie has been confined to her feed,
wo are told,- since reaching her home.
The closing exercises of the IIo!
f'ngsvvorth High School was a grand
success. Tlie speech of Rev. Ferct
McConnell, of Gainesville, was a grand
effort, and the ideas lie advanced on
‘concentration and dis-emination”
were well received, and are calculated
to do great good. All the scholars
acquitted themselves well, which
speaks in high terms of Professor
Slit;!ton as a teacher.
The people of that section are to be
congratulated for their energy in
building such a magnificent school
building. It is u monument that no
section of the country need be
ashamed of.
The attendance at the first session
of the school was far beyond the ex
pectations of the board of trustees
aud the teacher, and no doubt quite
a number of new scholars will enter
their names on the roli for the next
term.

Rev. Mr. Holcomb preached one of

campmeeting times. Over two hun
dred were in attendance at Sunday
school in the afternoon. At the close
of the school Professors Haulbrook,
of Maysville, and McDonald, of Bush
ville, rendered some excellent music.
Miss Ivate Haulbrook and Mr. Zepb
Campbell acted as organists, and right
good ones they are. Thanks, kind
Triends. Come again.
There are more benches needed at
the academy to accommodate the
crowds who come to Sunday school,
and they will be needed in the day
school after awhile. Ye trustees
should see to this.
The sentiment of our leading men
is against the world's fair appropria-;

W e would like to know what Mr.

out our cotton. It looks as if he was
preparing ta educate himself in one
branch of fanning—that of raising
cotton. But he is hupnv now. He
is wearing a smile all wool and a yard
wide. lie was presented with a fine
boy some days ago.
Mr. R. A. Means is the happiest

on without saying very much. It is a
boy.

Editoe Gazette:
\\ ill you he kind enough to publish
a line or tvyo from one of your coun
ty’s citizens ? 0 ft
As I have received a great muiqv.
letters from :..y old' friends intone
county 1 thought T would
them all through your
journal, as they wish information
relative to this country.
My present homo is at the ’hbo'vb
named place where I expect cvey to
remain. It is near the center of the
state, 32ntf- degree north latitude
and is bounded on the cast by the
Brazos river, which has wide and
fertile valleys. Basque rivef runs
nearly through the center of the
county.
This is as fine watered country as I
ever saw. This county is about
equally divided with prairie and tim
ber and is perfectly healthy, except
an occasional case of the grip. The
lands are very productive, and much
easier managed than Georgia lands,
as there are no rocks or stumps in
the way.
The state set apart several millions
of acres of land the proceeds of which
goes into the school fund, so that ail
children receive a free education.
People from your slate no doubt
think, from the names of the officers
of this state that we are out laws, but
such is not the case. We have the
very best of laws and society, and
we have a Hogg for governor that
promptly executes the duties of his
oflict. We have a Pig for judge who
sees th.lt the law is promptly execu
ted. We have a Lamb for senator
who, by his courteous and manly
actions, has the confidence of the
people jof the state.. We have’a
Bull for representative, a Buffalo for
shirift and a Slioat for constable.
'J his is the country for a poor man.
Land is cheap, provisions plentiful
and cheap.
I sec that my old friend and family
physician, [),-. y. ]) Lockhart, has
had a peasant trip to Augusta. A fay j
bis lift).ever lie prosperous and happy.
Respectfully,

clubs an I literary schools, all of which
are goqd in their place, yet with all
these advantages, and sometimes our
egotistic boasting, there is great
room for improvement, for sometimes
we find, in our best churches the
young people have never yet learned
how to Conduct themselves; still they
claim to be refined.
