We have on hand the finest lot of material ever put into buggy or carriage work in this

get our vehicles “knocked down,” from the North, as many other manufacturing firms do, but j

FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS.
Senoia.
Mr. Editor:—As stated in our last,
Mr. O. H. Rogers, proprietor of the Al
liance warehouse, that was burned,
was brought here under arrest upon
the charge of forgery. It is alleged
tiiat he signed the Htimeof Air. William
Edge, of Meriwether county, to a note,
and traded the same to one of our mer
chants. There is liule doubt as to his
guilt; but while in the guard-house
here some party or parties broke open
the door at night and Mr. Rogers took
French leave. His present whereabouts
are not known. The crime of forgery
is a very serious one, but the crime of
liberating ;» prisoner awaiting trial, or
after sentence, is just as great, and de
serves as severe punishment. It is a
great pity that these swindlers of jus
tice cannot be caught and given a term
are cordially invited to attend. This
invitation, Mr. Editor, is also extended
to you and your typos.

Mr. Editor:—l erred in stating that
J. T. Henderson, Esq., officiated at the
marriage of Mr. David Iirimerand Miss
Alice Moore. The ceremony was per
formed by Elder Willis Jordan, who in-

weddings in the vicinity in the near fu-
trains are passing. They have no one
to look after them, and often make it
convenient to get in the way, besides
being exposed to great danger. Will
parents take it as an insult if we say it
looks very much like they adopt these
means to advertise a want of proper
respect for their children V Eli suffered

We have been for some years whoop
ing up Senoia as a dry town, but we
can’t whoop now worth a cent. That
there is liquor, and lots of it, drank
her*, is too true. Men come here so
ber, and go or are carried away drunk.
Where and how-do they get it? Is
there a “blind tiger” in the communi
ty? Drunkenness and blasphemy are
of daily.occurrence. That such tilings
are tolerated right under the nose of
our municipality is passing strange.
The thing is a nuisance, and we do not
believe the good citizens of our town
will long submit to it—and they ought
not. A change is b.idiy needed, and
the sooner the better.
Well, we have a very limited supply
of legislative thunder at this time, but
agree with Air. Harrell, of Webster, on
the State road question. It would
have been better for Georgia had tin-
Legislature done twenty years ago
what Air. Harrell advocates now. Five
hundred thousand dollars interest paid
annually on the bonded debt of the
State' ought to get the Legislature
down to business. The tax-payers un
interested. Dr. Felton has his sights
very high. Forty-live thousand dollars
rental per month! A syndicate ol
dough-heads might consider it; business
men, never. Competition by rival lines
now in operation, and others contem
plated, will, in the very nature of
things, largely divert and control the i
large volume of business heretofore j
monopolized by that lino. Exist ing j
and prospective fa*.ts ought to settle !
the question.
Patience and perseverance are com
mendable traits of character. Of tiie
former, man possesses but little: wo
man partakes largely of both. \Ye can- j f j 0 y

We have formed a corn-bread trust in
our community, and agreed not to buy
any more flour until prices decline, nor
to eat any more buscuits except at

every man will be expected to do his |' w Dicli
duty.
Farmers used to live better in the fall ; read
of the year than in the spring, but now
they live hard in the fall and well in
the spring. The explanation is simple
enough to those who have to buy sup
plies on time. In the spring they buy
on the prospect of their crops; in the
fall it takes ;-. 11 their crops to pay for
rations bought in the spring, ami us

Woman’s Seclusion in India.
I had not been long in Lidia wh6n a
native lady who owned largo estates
sent to beg my husband to pay her a
visit, as she was anxious that he
should take charge of her property,
which was much embarrassed, and
wished to discuss tiie matter with him.
We dismounted from our elephants in
the court yard of her house, and were
conducted by a magnificent major
domo and a crowd of smaller satel
lites to tt carpeted veranda, where
chairs were placed ready for us. The
\ qiir mouth <q. nvarf i tlion approached, holding in
the palms of ids joined hands some
gold coins, which we touched instead
of loyally taking, as was the generous
custom in less prudish days. But no
Laly w:ts to be seen, and I was amazed
and even startled to hear my husband,
still looking straight before him, be
gin speaking as if he saw some one.
It gave me quite a shock, but as he
showed no other sign of sudden in
sanity. I looked around for some ex
planation, and then discovered that
our chairs were placed near a kind of
screen called a chik, made of thin
strips of bamboo, which completely
prevents any one from outside seeing
iit, although a person within the room
can see out, and behind this shelter
ing mantle of in visibility** sat the lady
and her women. The conversation
was long, and almost wholly unintel
ligible to me, but 1 gathered that my
husband, having reason to be dis
pleased with the lady’s conduct, de
clined to accept her hospitality in any
way, which, judging from certain elo
quent sounds that issued from behind
the screen, drew from her tears and
lamentation.—Corn]till Alagazinc.
The Whistle of the Elk.
The whistle of the elk is a sound
many have tried to describe,
[ yet I doubt if any one who may have
read all the descriptions of it ever
written would recognize it on a first
hearing. It is a most rtrange, weird,
j "<'uii;:r sound,'bailling all efforts of
the mo t skillful word painter. It is
only inter: .1 l y Ih • male, and there is
tl. ■ seme vari.-ly its the sound made bv
different Dags :.s in different human
voices. Usually the cry begins and
cuds with a sort of grunt, somewhat
like the bellow of a domestic
cow cut short, but the inter
lude is a long drawn, melodious,
llute like sound that rises and
fails with a rhythmical cadence, float
ing oil the still evening air, by wiiich
it is often wafted with singular dis
tinctness to great distances. By other
individuals, or even by the same indi
vidual at various times, either the first
or last of these abrupt sounds is
