THE NEWNAN
CARRIAGE AND BUGGY WORKS.
We are now prepared to do all kinds of Carriage,
Buggy and Wagon work, and in a style that cannot be
excelled in the State, or anywhere else. Our work
men are skillful and efficient; our material the best
that money will buy; our equipment thorough and
complete in every department. In fact, we have spar
ed neither pains nor expense in preparing for the bus
iness, and our facilities for doing work in this line are
first-class in every respect.
We have on hand the finest lot of material ever put into buggy or carriage work in this
section of the State, and workmen that know exactly how to put it together. We do noi
get our vehicles “knocked down," from the North, as many other manufacturing firms do, but
make them out and out. This is our strongest recommendation. We manufacture—
CARRIAGES, PHAETONS,
LANDEAUS, HEARSES.
ROAD-CARTS, BUGGIES,
SULKEYS, WAGONS ETC.
We are also prepared to do all kinds of carriage, buggy and wagon repair work, in the
best style and at the lowest prices. Plantation work and horse-shoeing a specialty.
Give us your work; we guarantee satisfaction.

Mr. Editor:—The latest social event
in our little city was the elegant enter

Friday evening in honor of Misses
Sturges and Rpyal, two charming
young ladies of Sivannah, Ga. At 9
o’clock the spacious parlors were filled
with bright, eager faces, and the estim
able host and hostess were diligent in
looking after the pleasure of their
guests. Never were our young ladies
; more charming, nor our young gentle
men happier. The Senoia Silver Cor
net Band were out in full force, and
delighted all with their enchanting
music. At 10 o’clock the guests were
ushered into the dining-room, where a
sumptuous repast was spread. The

among our people.
Mr. W. A. Mallory, after a protract
ed visit to friends and relatives in

thers.
Mrs. Dan Perdue, of Milner, Ga., has
been on a visit to relatives here.
MnaKate Cooper, of LaGrange, has
accepted the position of music teacher

most charming addition to the society
of our pleasant little city. We are to
be congratulated upon securing her ser

The tables and batteries of the tele
graph school are being opened and
placed in position by Manager Couch
The school will soon be under full

member his generous hospitality.

Working the road is the order of the
day, and should be. The roads are very
rough all over the county and should
be put in better fix. The main street
running through this town is terribly
rough, and has not been worked this
year. We hope everybody will make
use of the present season and work all
the roads.
The depot for Puckett's will be erect
ed some time this fall, but not so early
as we had hoped. Zubetus.

Fodder-pulling is in order, though it

Big meetings are in full blast, and
Christians are confessing their neglect
and making new vows and promises to
stick closer to the path of duty, and to

The colored folks are having morning
glories and evening shouts.
The annual meeting at Macedonia
closed with six accessions by baptism.
Liberty Christian is in session, with

a fine son.
Mrs. Susan Hyde is no better.
Mrs. R. B. Jones is in very delicate

Mr. Ingram' has a dzttlgTiterlrery sick

Our community and the many friends
of Mrs. Mattie Pentecost, wife of Mr.
Frederick Pentecost, of Wliitesburg,
will be pained to hear of her death,
which took place August 15th. She was
the youngest daughter of Rev. J. R. T.
Brown, of Winston, Douglas county,
Ga. She was raised in this community
and loved by all who knew her. She
leaves a disconsolate husband and three
little children to mourn their irrepara
ble loss. The sympathies of this entire
community go out to them in their sad
bereavement.
I attended the Agricultural Conven
tion at Newnan last week. It was com
posed of a very good-looking, intelli
gent set of men. Captain Northen is
as sharp as a two-edged brier; Pat Liv
ingston is a very able and intelligent
farmer; Judge Harrell is a man of fine,
noble countenance; Cols. Waddell and
Peek are both talented men, and Col.
Barrow is a man of no small calibre.
They all farm well on paper, but I
don’t know how they scratch the
grotind. The best farmers are those
who make the most with the least work
and expense. It takes brow sweat and
elbow grease to farm.
I never heard of an equinoctial gale
from the west before last Monday and
Tuesday. Strange things are happen
ing.
I learn that Miss Mary Cook is quite
sick.
Mr. C. H. Xewton lias an attack of
asthma.
Miss Eva Dennis, of Buchanan, is vis
iting relatives in this vicinity.
Mrs. Emily Ward and Mrs. Lula Les
ter have returned from their visit to
Buchanan.
I notice a thing which I think is very
imprudent as well as impolite, and that
is the names of young ladies penciled
about on the walls of the various coun
try church houses. And then I also
notice names penciled and carved upon
the benches. Of course, this is all done in
time of religious services. There ought
to be a law, with penalty annexed, to
prohibit such exposure and mutilation,
for there is no young lady, who thinks
anything of herself, that wishes to see
her name carved or penciled upon the
walls or benches. It is an evil that
has long existed but is now becoming
more prevalent. Another indecency is

An Interesting Relic.
Mrs. G. L. Jones, of Uogansville,
lias m her possession an invitation torn
military party given by the Newnan
Guards on the 22d of February, 1859.
The form of the invitation is as fol
lows: ,
“The pleasure of your company b
respectfully solicited to attend a mili
tary party, to be given by the Newnan
Guards, in Berry’s Hall, Tuesday, 22d
inst., 7 o’clock p. 11. An address to the
Guards wil 1 be delivered on the occasion
bv Thomas Pinson, Esq., of this place."”
The names of J. H. Hammond, J. T.
Hollis, W. T. Cole, M. Cole, and J. E. *
Luckie are signed au-the committee of
arrangements, while Captain Ilan vey.
Lieutenant Swint, Lieutenant Genovac
Sergeant Anderson, Sergeant Palmers
and Private Hammond served as the
committee of invitation.
The card is well preserved, and *■
highly prized by the lady in question
as one of the sacred links connecting
the peaceful present with the sorrow
ful past.
Expression of Thanks.
For the many kind attentions, ex
pressions of sympathy, and sympathet
ic inquiries during the illness of our
son, J. T., allow us to tender our assur
ances of genuine appreciation. No
warmer gratitude could be felt, and wt
pray God to shield you from all bean
troubles and hours of anxiety. Should
sorrow come to you and your hearts be
stricken with grief, no hands could be
more willing to aid you, no hearts more
ready to give evidence of sympathy and
love than ours. Your sympathies are
very dear, and the remembrance of
your attentions will influence our pray
ers to God, asking asa. reward for these
acts of goodness much happiness, filling
your cup to the brim with bliss, and,
when home-returned, a safe anchorage
in heaven.

Peterson’B for September.
Peterson for September is on hand.
It invariably keeps up to the mark, year
after year; for first-class writers and ar-
•tists furnish the literary matter and il
lustrations. Ncyiains or expense isever
spared in any department; there is only
one cheap thing about Peterson—that
is the price. John Bunyan’s bi-centen-
.ial is just now attracting attention, and
Peterson opens with a beautifully-il
lustrated article on the famous man,
written in charming style and giving
numerous details of his life which will
be. new to American readers. Tin
whole number is exactly what a Sep
tember magazine ought to be—breezy,
fresh, and altogether delightful. No
lady who wants the best stories, new
est items in regard to dress and society
doings, as well as ample information in
matters relative to the beautifying an*!
elevating of home-life, can afford to dt
without Peterson. Scores of thousand-
have long known the fact, and each
year adds to the list of those who find
that of chewing tobacco and spitting i this unique periodical an absolute m-
the juice upon the church* floors. This
habit is not only practiced by the con
gregation, but is common in the “amen
corner” of the church. No gentleman
would spit tobacco juice upon his own
parlor floor; if he did I guess he would
hear from his Betsy Jane.
