-Mr. Editor:—This section was visited
with considerable frost last Sunday
morning, but no serious damage has
been done. We remember that there
has been one year since we have lived
here that frost occurred eight months
out oHhe twelve. This year may be
another one. TVe notice reports of
snow storms in portions of Virginia,
Pennsylvania and Michigan, which, so
early in the season, may be pointers to
what may come, when winter fairly sets
in. Irrauch an emergency two things
are very essential for comfort—plenty
of wood and warm clothing.
Thefctatement was published in the
paper bere and copied by others, that
there iad been fifteen thousand pounds
of grapes shipped from this place the
past summer, and no money had been
received. There has been shipped less
than seven thousand pounds of grapes,
and we know that a portion, if not all,
has been paid;—at least, parties have so
informed us.
Cotton has been coming into our town
very briskly for the past week. The
receipts last Saturday were reported at
175 bales. We notice a good many bales
wrapped in heavy burlaps, but observe
that, in using the hooks, it tears very
badly, increasing greatly the risk from
fire. TVe learn that the buyers have
knocked off one dollar for each bale so
packed, and that our buyers will not bid
on cotton thus put up. TVecannot help
believing it a very poor substitute for
jute bagging, and, notwithstanding the
iniquitous bagging combine, are of the
opinion that the farmers w*^ild have
saved money, even by submitting
to the advance in price for the present.
TVe learn that “Bill Arp” will deliver
a lecture here on Friday night, 12th
inst. It is to be hoped that everybody
will turn out to hear this famous writer
and lecturer. A cordial greeting to tlie
“Cherokee Philosopher” might benefit
our town in more ways than one.
We received a passing salute one day
last week from your esteemed Turin
correspondent, on his way to the city of
Columbus to visit his aged father, who
is now 87 years of age, and has been en
gaged in the active ministry for three
score years. God bless the meeting of
father and son I
The Senoia Ginnery is running on
full time. The ginning capacity is forty
bales per day. Cotton has been brought
fifteen miles to be ginned. Economy,
we suppose, was the motive.
Messrs. L. D. Belisle, Luther Mc-
Lane, J. T. Jones and J. A. Sasser have

Dr. Camp’s warehouse and Camp A

hold three hundred bales of cotton, and
will be quite a convenience to the place.

this week, which came very near being

I attended the Richards reunion at

crowd present, and Prof. J. B. Allen, of
Roscoe, made one of the finest addresses
it was ever my pleasure to listen to.
He is one of the most graceful and elo
quent orators of this age. Col. TV. G.
McDaniel, of Bowdon College and
nominee for the Legislature from Car-
roll county, made a fine political
speech. The Democratic party in Car-
roll has made a wise selection for Rep-
resentative in the person of Col. Mc
Daniel. I have neither time nor space
to give full details of 1 he reunion. The
occasion was opened with singing and
