He would be immensely wel come, and we trust will conclude to do so. The little folks enjoyed a pleasant sociable at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. II. M. Arnold on Friday evening last. Ladies, what nicer present can you give your husband, father or brother than a pair of those handsome slippers nt Sneads’? There are thirty-two hundred polls in Coweta county, and of this number twenty-five hundred have paid tax the present year. Prof: E. T.

Mr. Robinson is a tip-top officer .—Carrollton Free Press Rev. C. C.Carey preached to large con gregations at the Methodist church last Sunday, both in the forenoon and at night, and made a fine impression upon those who heard him. He has not only the qualifications of a fir.-t-class preach er, but the admirable qualities that go to make a popular and useful pas tor as well. On Friday last Rev. J. B. S. Davis was the pleased recipient of a pair of elegant gold spectacles, presented by some of his gentlemen friends, who adopted this method of testifying their personal friendship as well as their’ Christmas regards. It is a handsome present, and one that Bro. Davis can well appreciate. A Puzzled Community.—For a long time this question has been a puzzle to our most intelligent men: Why it D that Glenn Burpee can sell a good one- horse harness for §2.50 when the leath er costs other manufacturers $2.50? A nice buggy harness for $7.50; double lines, $1.25 per pair; bridles, each, 25c.; hamestrings, each, 74c. An ugly row occurred between the whites and blacks at Lutherville on Christmas Day, in which pistol shots and missiles of one character and an other were freely exchanged. One ne gro received a shot in the arm, and there were numerous minor casualties, though we have been unable to obtain accurate details of the scrimmage. Misses Georgia Sims and Mattie Reid Robinson, who have been in school at LaGrasge, are enjoying their holiday vacation with the “old folks at home.” Miss Glenn Gamp of Moreland, and Miss Belle Sharpe of Carrollton, spent a few days in the city this week, guests ■of the Misses Camp on Greenville ■street.

Mr. T. E. Atkinson and family moved up from Senoia last week and are now permanently located in our city. "They are occupying the Neely cottage, on Greenville street. Mr. P. R. Bingham, Jr., who has been filling the position of storekeeper and gauger at one of the Griffin distilleries for several months past, will be trans ferred to Xewnan on the 1st of January. He has been assigned to duty at C. E. Smith’s distillery. Coweta Lodge, F. A. M., celebrated St. John’s Day with a magnificent sup per at the lodge-room last night. All the members and their wives were pres ent and the occasion was a most enjoy able one in ail respects. A full report of the affair will be given in our next issue. House for Pent!—The Russell house and lot, situated near College Temple and public schools, is offered for rent. House contains eight rooms—six down stairs and two up stairs. Lot contains one acre. Well of as good water as can be found in Xewnan. Apply to H. M. Arnold. Mr. R. D. Cole, Sr., president of the Xewnan Cotton Mills, is in receipt of a letter from a Baltimore capitalist ask ing for an option on ten shares of fac tory stock. There have been numerous demands for stock within the past month, and from the most unexpected sources. At a recent meeting of the directors of the Coweta Fertilizer Company an annual dividend of S per cent, on the capital stock of the company was de clared, payable on the 1st of January. The operations of the company for the past twelve months have been highly satisfactory. On Tuesday night last Mr. M. G. Keith raffled off the handsome iron gray horse which has been so much ad mired at his stables for several weeks past, and the lucky chance fell to Mr. J. T. Carpenter. The horse is valued at $200, for which his present owner is out just $12. A hop and sociable was given by the young gentlemen of Xewnan at Arcade Hall last Wednesday evening compli mentary to our holiday visitors. It was a very pleasant occasion, but as it will be repeated on Monday evening next, we will defer a more extended descrip tion until our next issue. Our merchant? have had a lively hol iday trade and are correspondingly hap py. Mr. J. T. Swint says his trade on Monday last was the heaviest that he has had since he engaged in the mer cantile business, and if we might judge from the crowds that thronged their stores others were equally fortunate. On Monday afternoon last Miss Sa- fronia Webb, of the Second district, was united in marriage to Mr. J. T. Ha gan, of Birmingham, Ala. The parties met here by appointment and the mar riage took place in the parlors of the Commercial Hotel, Rev. E. B. Barrett performing the ceremony. They took the first train for Birmingham, Ala. Miss Minnie Ellis, the charming and efficient music teacher at College Tem ple, is spending the holidays at her home in Greenville* Ga. A large class of twenty attests her popularity, and their rapid progress proves her ability as a teacher. She will return January Sth, and Xewnan will be delighted to claim her for another scholastic year. On the 1st of January the Xewnan Buggy Company will occupy the large two-story frame building on the south west corner of the public square, for merly tenanted by Mrs. L. Robison as a hotel. In the course of a few months the present structure, which is poorly adapted for use as a carriage repository, will be replaced with a handsome new building. Mr. John Dunbar has leased the shops in the rear of the Burpee build ing and will occupy them on the 1st of January. The woodworking depart ment will be under'the supervision of Mr. Dunbar and Mr. A. B. Ashcraft, while the blacksmith shop will be in charge of Messrs. A. E. Edmundson and Mark Dunbar. They are skilled workmen, and too well known to the public to need commendation from us. The dwelling of Mrs. Susan Hunter, of Turin district, caught fire last Sun day night about 8 o’clock and was en tirely destroyed, together with most of her household and kitchen furniture. Mr. AVm. Ragland, her son-in-law, oc cupied the residence with her, having moved in only a few days previous to the fire, and he was equally unfortu nate in the \ossof his household effects. The fire caught in the stove-room, and is supposed to have originated from a defective flue. Xo insurance. The directors of the Xewnan Cotton Mills will hold their regular monthly meeting on Friday next, (4th prox.) at which time the president will submit his report giving a detailed statement of the operations of the company since its organization. The building is now ready for the machinery, which has been ordered and will be shipped about the 1st of February. The engine is now being placed in position, Messrs. Lane & Bodley, of Cincinnati, (of whom the engine was purchased) having sent out one of their best machinists to do the work. While in Xewnan a few days ago we dropped into the dental office of AV. T. Cole & Son, and must say that they have one of the best equipped offices in Georgia. These gentleman are both skillful dentists and have the latest im proved machinery for making plates and plugging teeth. Dr. AA r . T. Cole, being somewhat of a mechanical genius, manufactures a number of his instru ments. He showed us a small steam en gine he had made. It will run a sewing machine or a small printing press. He also exhibited to us a lathe of his own make, and for superior workmanship it can’t be beat.—Senoia Sentinel. The committee of ladies who have in charge the proposed entertainment for the benefit of the Baptist church at Puckett Station have decided to hold their festival next Monday afternoon instead of at night, as announced last, week. In addition to the silk quilt drawing, which of itself will be an at tractive feature of the occasion, the la dies will prepare an elegant dinner, con- lent dinner may be obtained. The la dies have worked untiringly for the suc cess of this entertainment, and consid ering the worthy object in view, are en titled to a generous patronage. AA 7 e hope they will not be disappointed. Mr. AA r . P. Broom’s store on Bay street was burglarized last Monday night and a quantity of goods stolen. Entrance was effected by knocking out a panel of the rear door, the aperture thus made affording easy ingress and egress to the enterprising scamp who perpetrated the robbery. On the night of the 16th inst. Mr. Broom’s store was entered in pretty much the same man ner, though the amount stolen was hardly so large or so valuable. On the night of the 21st a further attempt was made to burglarize the establishment, but upon this occasion Night Patrol man Martin appeared on the scene and frustrated the thief’s plans, firing two or three shots at the rascal as he re treated. On Monday night last, how ever, he was more successful, and not only secured his booty but contrived to get off with it unobserved. There is no clue. Messrs. D. H. Floyd, O. D. Barron and Claude Register, of Gadsden, Ala., paid their Xewnan friends a pleasant visit this week. All are Xewnan boys, and it is worth mentioning that they found no difficulty in securing lucra tive positions in Gadsden without other recommendation than the statement that they had acquired their technical education by a term of apprenticeship with the R. D. Cole Manufacturing Company. Mr. Floyd is foreman of the machinery department of the Elli ott Car Company, one of the largest manufacturing concerns in North Ala bama, and we are pleased to know has given entire satisfaction in the position. Messrs. Barron and Register are em ployed in the foundry department, where they have ample scope for the display of their mechanical skill and ingenuity, and. are already in the line of promotion. Bill Edwards, one of Grantville’s toughest and most cantankerous color ed citizens, was tried before Judge AVells last AVednesday oq the charge of assault with intent to murder. He was bound over for his appearance at the March term of Coweta Superior Court, but immediately upon his dis charge was rearrested on three other warrants—one for carrying concealed weapons, one for assault, and one for pointing a pistol at another. He waiv ed examination in the three last cases, however, and demanded indictment by the grand jury; whereupon he was bound over in the sum of $275, which he succeeded in giving and was releas ed. At the peliminary hearing before Judge AVells the prisoner was repre sented by AAJllcoxon & AVright of Xew nan, and R. I. O’Kelly of Grantville. P. S. AVhatley, County Solicitor, ap peared for the State. Prof. Charles Astin, of Xewnan, was in the city yesterday looking after some music which Messrs. Philips & Crew will publish for him. Prof. Astin grad uated at the Academy for the Blind at Macon, Ga., and has since that time composed a number of pieces, and his productions reflect credit on himself and on the institution in which he re ceived his education. One of the piec es of music which he is publishing, “Century March,” was inspired by the reading of one of Mr. Grady’s speeches. His “Mizpah Waltzes,” published three or four years ago had a good run, as did also his variations of “In the Gloam ing,” published by Oliver Ditson & Co. Prof. Astin says that he has composed in all over thirty pieces of music and that his best productions have never been published. He desires to publish them himself rather than to give them to a publisher, as by taking the risk of publishing them himself the profits to him are much greater.—Atlanta Con stitution, 20tli inst. One of the most enjoyable of the numerous social events that have oc curred to enliven the holidays was a reception tendered by Miss Annie de- Graffenried last evening complimentary to her cousin, Miss Yiola Flynt, of Al bany. Only a select number of friends were invited, though enough were present to fill the pleasant parlors com fortably, among whom were the follow ing couples: Mr. A. M. Norris with Miss Brenda Gibson, Mr. Mike Powell with Miss Laura Daniel, Mr. J. S. Anderson with Miss Morn Hall, Mr. E. M. Cole with Miss Sallie McGhee, Mr. J. P. Leverett with Miss Connie Hartsfield, Mr. J. H. Hall with Miss Mattie Reid Robinson, Mr. C. E. Vance with Miss Polly Huen, Mr. W. C. Wright with Miss Mary Clarke, Mr. Y. C. Thompson with Miss Annie Belle Clarke, Mr. AY. R. Clarke with Miss Helen Long, Mr. Tom Banks with MissNell Bush, Mi. E. H. Xorris with Miss Emma Stanford, Messrs. G. R. Black and AV. A. Davis. Elegant refreshments were served, and the entire occasion was one of unstint ed pleasure and enjoyment. influence and services will not he los to the community. He was cashier o this bank for several years prior to his engagement in the mercantile business and is thoroughly familiar with the d#- ties of the position. Mr. J. S. Hollinshead, who has per formed the duties of cashier so satisfac torily for several months past, will con tinue his connection with the bank as assistant cashier. He is a most capable and excellent official, and the public will be glad t6 know that his service? have been retained. . Messrs. I. X. Orr and Jack Powell will continue the mercantile business under the firm name of I. X. Orr & Co., and are making preparations for a heavy trade in the dry goods and gro cery line during the coming year. These gentlemen have been associated in business so long, and are so well and popularly known to the people of Cow eta and surrounding counties, that nothing we might say could add to their reputation as enterprising and trustworthy business men. They give notice elsewhere that the books of the old firm must be closed up, and urge all parties indebted to them to come for ward and make immediate settlement. The retirement of Mr. Kirby renders this all the more important, and it is absolutely necessary that these matters be adjusted without delay. See notice. The Doctors Celebrate. Amid the social flurry and pyrotech nic confusion which has prevailed since the opening of the holidays it has been no easy task to keep up with the dis tracting course of events that have fol lowed each other in such swift succes sion; but ye editor, who contrives nev er to get left when lie can help it, ac cidentally stumbled on a mysterious and solemn looking conclave in Burch’s restaurant last AVednesday night that laid over anything that he had yet en countered. It was a supper, gotten up by the doctors of Xewnan for their own behoof and enjoyment, and such visiting members of the profession as might find it convenient to attend. And such a supper! Roast goose, roast turkey, oysters, quail on toast and sal ads formed the basis of the menu, though these were liberally garnished by numerous side dishes of more or less temptingness, the whole comprising a feast fit for the gods. There were just thirteen seats and these were occupied by Drs. F. M. Brantly of Senoia, Cas per Smith and Thos. Mixon of Palmet to, R. L. Y. Long, J. T. Reese, C. D. Smith, A. C. North, G. AV. Peddy, T. J. Jones, T. B. Davis, J. T. Moore and J. D. AValker, while ye editor usurped the thirteenth one to make the number even. Dr. Brantly and Dr. Long occupied the posts of honor, and but for the elaborate festal agglomeration which steamed and simmered under our very noses their serious demeanor might ea sily have been mistaken' for that per plexity which so often vexes the pro fession when diagnosing a complicated case. The solemn stillness which seem ed to oppress the occasion as the report er entered was soon broken, however, and once broken the entire company assumed an air of jollity as delightful as it was surprising. As a pleasing pre liminary to the more practical enjoy ment of dispatching the rich viands that graced the festal board, Dr. Lum Smith was called on to make some re marks. Dr. Smith is the literary mem ber of the local guild, and, as he always does, proved himself equal to the emer gency by reciting the following original poem: Thrice welcome, Doctors, here to-night! \Ve seldom see just such a sight; It need nor cause the least affright— They coiuc because of appetite, For appetite will always draw - ’Tis well ordained by Nature’s law, To satisfy a hungry craw. . . Hence, we are here at this repast, And trust it may not be the last; Nor is it best too long to fast, For hunger and the wintry blast May chili the man and freeze the blood For the want of generous food— That that’s rich, and rare, and good, To maintain a strong manhood. If the times be hard and shirky, Clouds financial dark aud murky, We can afford a good fat turkey— And some oysters, fresh and fine, A la mode from Reid’s cuisine, And, if to “smiling” some incline, May wash them down with best of wine. If anything we tlie;i shall lack To keep the freight from coming back, And the train straight down the track, Each one may give his lips a smack, And take a drink of old cognac. The Doctors now have in their reach Enough for all, enough for each; Let us, then, these good tilings eat— Not as a gastronomic feat, To find which can his fellow beat— But for our comfort and good will, Each for the other to fulfill All obligations here below That doctors to each other owe. Then shall our lives be truly blest. The greatest, grandest, richest feast, The truth of which we all attest— To stand by one another here. We need not doubt, nor halt, nor fear— But onward move, each in his sphere, Commissioned here the sick to heal, And to respond to want’s appeal, And for the suffering heart to feel,’’ And with relentless death to deal. To duty prompt, each in his place— A boon and blessing to his race. A glorious lesson here we teach; So may it ever prove for each Until the end of life wo reach; And when we cross the shining river, God grant us then a feast forever.

Reese would interject something about the comparative excellence of those sections of a well-fed fowl of the gal linaceous species recognized among members of the profession aspectoralis major and latissimus dorsi, respectively. For reasons satisfactory to ourself we held stiffly aloof while this discus sion was going on, and while we may not have been able to designate by name the anatomical members of the various subjects laid out for dissection, we flatter ourself that we handled our knife with as much dexterity and wielded uur fork as vigorously as any of them. Before the cloth was removed Dr. Davis was called on for a song, but he pleaded as an excuse that lie—was— not in voice, and as Dr. Reese could not he prevailed upon to take his part on the programme the company ad journed to Dr. North’s ofiiee. An hour was spent here most pleasantly in con versation, during which Drs. Brantly, Long, Peddy, Lum Smith, Reese and North regaled the younger members of the profession with some of their early experiences, some of which were too funny for anything, and which lack of space only prevents us from reproduc ing in detail. i t was a most delightful occasion, and we return thanks to our medical friends for the large share of pleasure which fell to our part.

Business Change. By referring to a notice which ap pears elsewhere in this paper it will be observed that the partnership hereto fore existing between Messrs. I. N. Orr, Jos. T.
