Sunday's Doings.
A big tXouisio i for the colored people
was the oruer of the day for lasi Sunday,
i About one hundred went down in the
I woiniup, and a goodly number in the at
j teruoon. The excitement was a funeral
occasion at Little Hock Church, near
j Bostick.
Previous to thq departure of the morn
ing train, a colored woman, who, we
suppose, bad never seen the cars before,
was standing near the engine, when
suddenly,Engineer Cox blew the wbn tie,
whieli rented a large size panic in the ac
tions of that colored woman. She w; a
scared, yes irighteued, aud sprang otf
through the field at a break-neck speed, j
tore over the fence like a mad cyclone, |
directing her flight ceutr. lly through the
town, She looked Kicked only ouce,
aud seemed to get worse off than ever,
‘ passing Dr O'Neal's corner at the rate cf
thirty miles an hour, more or les9. Thi
laFt seeu of her she was shaking town
| dust Irotn the soles of her shoes at a lively
i rate.
j The down tram in the morning was,
J doubtless, the uvouger of a g odly num
i her of deceased sheep—a stray tramp < f
a dog was converted in sausage meat, and
dumped out on the road aid; to howl its
last complaints iti an oder not overmuch
like mashed roses.

| probable number who will go, to Super
inUndant W 11 Martin, Taibotton, who
: will complete all the necessary arrunge

; tween the 15th and 23th of May, be :

TIIE REGISTER AND STANDABD, TALBOTTON. TALBOT COUNTY, GEORGIA, MAY 10 1881
Agricultural Meeting.
The County Agricultural Society, Dr
W R Neal, President, iu the chair, met at
th Court House on last Tuesday, with a
good attendance. After the reading ot
the minutes wf the previous meeting the
subject for discussion, * 4 The Forage
Crops,** was announced. Col T R Lutns*
den, appointed to prepare a special po
pe ron the subject, submitted bis obser
vations, which while discursive, were
comprehensive and practical, containing
many valuable suggestions and idens
about this nil inipoi taut subject. The
essay was well received and * the thanks
of the society were given Col Luuisden
for his [exhaustive treatise. It will be
printed at an early day.
Dr Neal, recognizing for the time Col
Lumsden as chairman, address the meet
ing on the sugject of torage, expressing
h Qiaelt as in favor ot cheaper forage than
c >rn, or its toddo*, said that the e -rn he
raised cost him not less than from $1 25
to $1 00 p< r bushel.
Mr Z f Step! e ison expie<sd himself
a* decidedly in favor of the old fashion
corn, said thatjii could be raised in the
gr atest abundance, if far tiers would be
stow more time and a t ntion in the pre
paration and cultivation of their corn
lands. Mr D G Owen lollowed m the
same line, advoct fc ng not only a plenti
ful supply of com, but of all the grams
that affor 1 both 100 1 and forage.
Mr D J Carreker was much pleased
with his experiments with rye as a subs
stitutc for <ry forage—can be fed in quan
tity after stock h ive become accustomed
t<> it—was not pleased with German Mil
lot, it requiring too rich grojmd to bring !
paying crops.
Judge Dennis favored more attention !
to tho grasses and grains generally, was
of opinion that plenty oi food for cattle
aud horses could be saved it care was
given and the forage cut, properly saved
an.l housed.
Col VV H Elliston expressed himself ns
decidedly in favor oi the perennial rye i
urass, Reed for which lie procured from
the Stare Agricultural Department sever
al Years ago. He insists that corn can
be made in sufficient quantity to satisfy
ill home demand, if the necessary pre
paration is bestowed on lands devoted to
its cultivation said it was cheaper to
raire corn at two dollars a bushel than to
buy it at one- half that prioe More care,
should be given tho corn crop.
Mr Culpepper was a corn man and be-
| liev'd in having a plenty of it. Hir
views were altogether sound on the corn
| queston.
j Other speakers followed, all agreeing
I it was the better policy to raise corn and
foras at home, thus diversifying the
crops und improving the lands, than to
depend tor the prune necessaries on for
eign markets.
Be Careful with the Children.
On last Thtrsdjy evening a polo cur
m the cut in Mrs. Carter's field, ucar the
depot, broke loose from its mooring and
went Hulling down grade at n tearful rate
with about ten or a dozen little boy*
aboard A1 jumped off, however, be
fore the cur got under headway, except
little Johnnie Martin, who took Ins first
free ride at a clipping speed The runa
way was headed off beyond the creek.

CASH WINS THE DAT.
WHEN IT 18 MET BY
LOW PRICES FOR GOODS !
In business usage, especially In this
day when the people want their goods at
low prices, nothing is truer than that the
ready money Is man's truest friend and
bis best adviser. With the cash in hand,
•n<* is more economical than when an ac
count on time is run. Then, it follows,
that it is not only a matter of pr sent
economy to buy tlumouly for which vmi
have the money, but that a peop e tr fl
ing on this system will gradually grow
more prosperous by reason of. it may be
small, yet const *ut savings. One might
ssk. where the saving part come in ?
Under th© old “s ime-price-for-cash as-on
tirae method, it would ne t come iu at
all; but, as that old fogy way of doing
things has now become obsolete, cash is
carrying the day bv milking it to tue pos
itive interest, of ev rybody to buy goods
at low price". This can be done, and is
being done every day, at
Thornton’s Palace Dry Goods Stores,
where on price rules, whether for little
or for much, and where evwry article in
ihe large stocks of merchandise sold by
this house is marked down to a very
small advance on cost.
This svstsm has been adopted because
it not oniy increases the purchasing pow
er ot the people's money by buying at
lower prices, acting economically on the
customer's interest, but because it pro
tects the a flier aud enabb s him to meet
his payments promptly, and to buy iu
large quantities for the cash, thus secur
ing the discoun's, which, iu every in
stance. Thornton gives to h tabu sterner in
the decreased price of the article sold.

Messrs. Lamar, Rankin fc Lamar—Gen

the efficacy of that truly efficient prepara
tion, so highly and justly recommended
by niauy, and manufactured by yoursel
ves -Brewer's Luug Restorer. It has in
deed proven to be a sovereign remedy il
my family. For many mouth* my win
has suffered from aenk lungs, mid ex
perienced great difficulty iu breathing—
so much so that she could not skop a
all at night; she also lost her uppetitr, and
iu tact her condition was truly alarming
The Lung Restorer having been rccom
mended •} several friends, I resolved t<
get it and test its virtue, which I did, atto
with tho most haypy effect. She has tak
en but two bottles and the result is won
dertul. She now experiences no difficulty
in breathing, htr appetite is good, mid
she is rapidiy regaining her strength, and
lam convinced its coutint-d use will effeo-s
a permanent enre.
I Mould, therefore, cheerfully recom
mend it to all \' h * have weak lungs, as i
cannot mil lo be ot great benefit to ul.
who nmy give it a trial.

vvouid amount to a hemorrhage, aud 1 U
came very much frightened at my coudi
non. I bought several bottles ot tin
Brewer’s Luug Restorer, and have been
entirely cured by its use, aud loci satisfied
that it is permanent, as I've lmd no symp
