Watching for riches consuinelli
the flesh, and the care thereof flriv
cth away sleep. The rich hath great
labor in gathering riches together;
and when he resteth he Is filled with
his defeats. He that loveth gold
shall not be justified, and he that
fdloweth corruption shall t have
enough thereof. Gold hath been the
ruin of many, and their destruction
is present; it is a stumbling block to
them that sa life i unto it, and every
fool shill be therewith. Riches are
not comely for a niggard; and what
should an envious man do with gold/

Dress Comment.
The following novel calling (or
women, as it is detailed by the Eta,
porln. (Kan.) Gazette: should be anal
ized by tho women ot every sectiou
before they attempt to usurp the
political places ot men. Here i, the
plan codensed:
There is a woman in this town
who has invented anew calling for
women; she is a professional compan
ion for women whose husbands are
away. She will go to a house and be
company for alone woman at #5 a
week, or she will go out for the night
at 75 cents an evening. She knows
all the gossip anil will tell gossip for
50 cents a night extra. In families
when there is a yonng woman with a
bean, who is liable to talk in a low
tone un.il 10 o'clock and then hush
untill she is awaken by the front
door slamming about midnight, the
woman charges a dollar a night
straight, making no reduction for
long time contracts. In families where
there is a boy who lies on his back
anb screamos at bed time, the woman
charges double rates. She is particu
lar and very independent,.and as the
clges grow in the town her bsiness
is branching out, and she is said to he
pitting money in the bank every Sat
urday night.

The Americas Times-Recorder
says: Caj tain Cliff Clay is entitled to
the bluo ribbon for having gathered
two valubie crop from the same land
this year. He nad a field of twenty
acres sowed in < a s, from which he
harvested BUO bushels, or 40 buhels
per acre. After catting the • a‘.s he
had tho field turned under for a hay
crop, and front the twenty acres will
cut at least forty tons of the finest
hay. Thsc croqs ware raised at com
paratively little cost, the hay costing
only the cutting. Estimating the oats
at only 50 cents per bushel and the
hay $lB per tan, tho gross revenue
from the twenty acres will be $1,120
How's that for farming iu Georgia?
. A detective was in town Satnvday
look hi g for a man who was arrested
hero a few days ago, hut who escaped
from his captor before reaching Gain
csvillc, where he was wanted- This is
a -‘bad nigger.” and his manner of cs
capa from an officer is a novel one.
He takes said officer's pistol a-.vay
from him, holds him up, gives him a
sound eussin,’ then goes his way in
the true style of a desperado.—Car

Two thousand dollars have been
guaranteed to two lawyers to defend
Sirs. Nobles and Gus Famble? the
bloody murders. What is the use to
try those demons again, when there
not a shadow of a doubt of thoir
guilt, both having plead guilty and
teld o the crime. Surely some Geor
gians, headed by the Macon News,
have gone daft over these brutes.—
