BUCHANAN, DRY GOODS, GOODS, Senoia. -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 been to Atlanta this week. Mrs. C. A. Green is on a visit to At lanta this week. Mrs. L. P. Barnes and Mrs. Sallie Towns are visiting Dr. J.* C. Barnes at Concord, Ga. Mrs. C. F. Sasser is on a visit to her sister, Mrs. Mallory, at Guyton, Ga. Mr. Jeter Addy has returned from New York. He had a very pleasant trip and is in fine trim to wait on his many customers. The new store-house of Hutcheson & Roberts is now ready to receive the tin J. T. lleese. I)r. Jacob Starr was made music, and no one who has talent in that line should fail to receive instruc- The side-track is complete and Mr. Ellis and several other workmen from Montgomery, are here and work has be gun on the depot. The “corner-stone” was laid by C. M. Combs to-day. They expect to get through by the 1st of No vember. Dr. Camp’s warehouse and Camp A Cureton’s factory building will be com pleted this week. The warehouse will hold three hundred bales of cotton, and will be quite a convenience to the place. What has become of the “Building Committee,” and when will they get seats for the church. TVe have an ele gant church, one that would be credit able to almost any town—but of what service is it without seats? tion while the chance is offered them. Mr. Sam Watson now fills the posi tion at the ginnecy recently made va cant by Mr. J. B. Carmical’s retirement. Mr. B. M. Couch’s infant son has been very sick this week. Mr. TV. R. Evans had a serious attack this week, which came very near being fatal, but we are glad to hear of his re covery. Miss Ophelia Hall, who has been vis iting Mr. E. C. Cureton and other rela tives in this community, has returned to her home in South Carolina. Wonder what “branches of other business” brother “H. A. T.” found at Rocky Mount, while ou his trip last week? He evidently must have come across some “branches,” as he says nothing of himself until lie reached home. ‘ Zubetus. Oct. 3d. Panther Creek. Mr. Editor:—The pale horse. Death, has again visited our community and plucked another lovely tlower. Little Bessie Daniel, youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Daniel, of this district, passed silently away on last Tuesday night to the spirit land—aged 15 months. Lovely lm>>e. how brief thy slay! Short autl hasty was thy day; Ending soon th' journey here, l’aiu and grief no more to bear. TT-.rri it is from thee to part.

Sweetly sleep and safely rest; Soon shall the morning restore The buried babe we now deplore Mrs. John Hyde, Sn, is quite feeble, from exhaustion. I attended the Richards reunion at County Line. There was quite a large 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 prayer by Elder Daniel, of Douglas county. Programme was read by Prof. roofing. It will be ready for occupancy in a short while. It is now bordering on 11 o’clock r. m., and we feel very much like retiring. Good night. Vincent. Oct. 3d. chairman and introduced the speakers of the day.

The next ful and eleganUentertamment was serv ed on both occasions. Ne wedding par ty or reception could have been more pleasant or more enjoyed by the guests. The parlors were tastefully decorated with choice ambrare tlowers, a beautiful testimonial of tlie high esteem in which the contracting parties were held by their relatives and friends. 1 would at tempt a description of the beauty of the bride and of the young ladies pres ent, and the elegance of their dress, but my descriptive powers are not equal to the undertaking.

The groom is a successful and ener getic young farmer, and his friends are numbered by the score, and the lady of his choice displayed good judgment in trusting herself and her happiness in his tiands. -The bride is beautiful, ac complished and amiable. She is the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. Elias Summers, respected and honorable peo ple of the Ilurri.-ane district, and is loved by old and young for her many estimable traits of character. She is. generous warm-hearted and full of the loving patience which is essential to make a good wife, and the fortunate groom is to he congratulated on his suc cess in winning a bride who will add joy to his life and cling to him with unalter able fidelity. “Across the threshold led, Ami every tear kis *ed off as soon as shed: HU house she enters, there to be a light Shining within when all without is night; A guardian angel o’er ids life presiding. Doubling ills pleasures, his cares dividing.” I hope a long, prosperous and happy life is before them. TVe will arid that Mr. and Mrs. E. Summers have been married 48 years, and have raised eleven children—six sons and five daughters. All their chil dren are living, and all married except one son.
