Ham mett, of this city, was united in mar riage to Mrs I. O. Dominick, of tho for mer place. The marriage was a com plete surprise to the friends of the contracting parties, and tho groom re ceived a shower of congratulations from his Newnan friends when the event was made known. The members of the committoe ap pointed to solicit subscriptions for the Alliance Cotton Seed Oil Mill and Gua no Factory, and others interested in the success of tho enterprise, are requested to meet Major U.

Should ho pass this way he is cordially invited to drop in. Mrs. Virgil Waters, of Atlnntn, who has been visiting her pnrents here for several days past, wns called to Rome on AVednesday last by a tel egram announcing that her hus band had been seriously injured in a collision on the Easft Tennessee, Virgin ia nnd Goorgia rond. Mr. AVators is an engineer on that road, and wns pulling a freight ongine when tho collision oc curred. He had a leg brokon, and re ceived other injuries that will probably disnble him for several weeks to come. The Georgia Telegraph School, loca ted nt Senoin, is a progressive institu tion. It onrolled students from elevqn States during the past year, and now hns graduates holding good and paying situations on twenty-five different rail roads. Tho managers are wido-awake nnd leave nothing undone to keep tho school abreast with tho times. They claim to have tho best Telegraph School in tho South. Tho reputation of the school nnd success of its graduates go very far toward substantiating that claim. __ Mr. Arthur Argo, who lias been em ployed in the Nownan post-office for the past five or six years, hns met the reward which faithful attention to bus iness and correct deportment is sure to bring. He leaves iu a day or two to ac cept a place in the railway mail service, with headquarters in Atlanta. Ho will be greatly missed by the patrons of the office, and Postmaster Milner fools that it will bo like parting with one of his own family. His many friends are much gratified at his well-earned pro motion and wish him much success in his new field of labor. The R. I). Cole Manufacturing Com pany recoived and set up at their shops last week a machine that will fairly revolutionize the boiler-making busi ness. It is a mammoth boiler-punch, by means of which the company will be enabled to turn out just six times as much work in this department as it lias formerly done. AVhen all the new work ing machinery ordered by the company arrives the regular weekly output will consist of one engine and boiler, one corn-mill, and one cotton press. This will be about double the present capac ity, and will give employment to a number of extra hands. During the week ending May 12th thirty-three hundred and ninety-five pieces of mailable matter were deposit ed in the Newnan postoffice for trans mission, the exact weight of which was two hundred and eleven pounds and four ounces. Taking the above as an average, and assuming that an equal quantity of mail matter is received for distribution, the total number of pieces handled each week by the Newnan of fice is six thousand seven hundred and ninety, or a total of three hundred and fifty-three thousand and eighty for twelve months, weighing within a frac tion of twenty-two tons. On Tuesday evening next there will be an ice cream and strawberry festi val on Major and Mrs. George Jones’ beautiful lawn, and elaborate ar rangements are being made for the enjoyment of those who may attend. The entertainment is given under the auspices of the Ladies’ Memorial Asso ciation, the purposo being to raise funds with which to purchase marble slabs for tho soldiers’ graves, nnd is the first of a series of outdoor entertainments that will be held in different portions of tho city during tho sumiuor in further ance of this worthy object. Visitors will lie received and entertained from 6 to 10 u. at., and it is hoped that as many ns can will attend. Prof. P. D. Pollock, in his lottor to The Herald and Advertiser this week, (which, by tho way, is one of the newsiest and host that ho hns yet writ ten,) intimates his intention of leaving Paris in a few days for Algiers, whence, after a brief stop, he will proceed to Madrid, Spain. A letter received yes terday apprises us of his snfo arrival at Algiers, nnd his many friends will be glnd to know that, he is in excellent health nnd spirits. Ilia letters to Tiie Herald and Advertiser have boon very much enjoyed by our renders, and wo are pleased to annmmco that they will be continued during his stay abroad. He will remain in Europe until the lat ter part of next yenr. The Telephone Exchange. Nownan will soon have a tolopono exchange, and a lino to Atlnnta. Par ties in Atlanta can then convorso with subscribers in Nownan with as much ease as if they woro hero. This will also give Newnan connection with a number of othor towns, and will bo of great benefit to our factories and business men. All those who- want telephonos should order them at onco, so all can start in together. About ten instruments hnvo been ordorod thus far, but no doubt Nownan will require twenty-live or thirty, as some of those most interested have not yet given their ordors. Marietta, Ga., smaller than Newnan, has an exchnngo of thir ty-five subscribers nnd a lino to Atlnntn. Tho merchants iirMariotta aro loud in tholr praiso of tho businoss convenience which it affords. The polos and wire aro now on tho way for the work hero, and in a few weeks tho Exchnngo will bo in success ful operation. Ono moro stop forward for our city. Coweta Was There. Judge Bon Leigh and Uncle Jimmie Carmical represented Coweta county in the State Temperance Couvontion which convoned in Atlanta Inst woek. Uncle Jimmie distinguished himself by becoming involved in a controversy with Mrs. Dr. Felton, and we aro sur prised to see from tho Atlanta papers that she finally won him over to tier side. The fact that Uncle Jimmie lias boen "layin’ low and sayin’ nothin’” since ho returned from Atlnnta would seem to indicate that there wns some basis for tho newspaper report, though wo cannot holp believing thero is somo mistake about it. If true, it is the first instnneo on record where Uncle Jimmio has boen driven from a position which ho boliovod to bo right. Tho At lanta Journal says Mrs. Folton • tnlkod so fast nnd so scathingly that she made tho old gentleman “dizzy,” whllo tho Constitution states that she literally “wiped up the floor” with him. It is now in ordor for Uncle Jimmio to ex plain, and wo lmvo no doubt ho will bo able to clear up tho matter to tho satis faction of his friends nnd all concerned. oughtito lmvo a canning factory, and with the encouraging start thus made there is no reason why tho enterprise should not succeed. The amount ofi cnpital required enn bo gotten up in an hour, nnd we trust tho gentlomon who lmvo nlrondy manifested an interest in tho matter will close up tho sub scription nnd got ready for work. Prompt action is all the moro important from tho fact that it will be necessary tomnke arrangements in advance for supplios of fruits nnd vegetables for canning purposes, and unless nttondod i to at onco the planting sonson for vege tables will soon bo over. For instnneo, a canning establishment costing $8,030' would probably use ton thousand bush els of tomatoos during the season,, be sides other vegetables, such ns beans, corn, etc. Thoso must bo planted not later than Juno to bo avnilablo for tho presont season’s operations, nnd parties- desiring to engago in tho industry should hnvo duo notice of tho quantity and variety of vegetables that the fac tory can use for canning purposes.

SEASON OPENED FOR Ice! Ice! Ice! A Newnan Boy Wins, of Course. At tho Htnto University, on Saturday morning last, the annual prize debate of tho Fhl Kappi Society took place, and it will be it matter of interest as well us gratification to his numerous friends hero to know that the prizo was awarded to Mr. A.

The event is thus described by the Athens Led- (jer of the 10th inst: The annual modal debate of tho Phi Kappi Society enmo off this morn ing, that of tho Dcmoalhonian having tukon place last week. In those de bates all the orators of the college con test, and it is truly a contest of young intellectual giants. The man who is able to compose such a speech, contain ing the purity and beauty of composi tion, the forcible logic, the political and social scionce, and then deliver in a manner that will thrill an audience, is certainly to be congratulated. It is looked upon by many as tho greatest honor the University can confer. Mes srs. J. It. Cooper and A. C. Willcoxon were the medalists this year, and it is a little unusual for both these med als to be taken by lawyers. This goes to convince all that this year’s law class is the best that lias ovor been hero. Their class-stand ranks very high, eight of thorn having made a hundred on tho second book of Blackstone, which is said to be ono of the hardest things to learn in the whole world of letters. Every man will, without doubt, get a diploma, and in about a month thirty- four well equipped young barristers will be distributed throughout the State of Georgia.
