Miss Fannie Johnson went to
Summerville Tuesday to assist her

The office of bailiff in Wilson
is going begging. As it cannot talk
it ig having a hard time of it.
The land line question between
Mr. Lecil Day anil the Rev. D.
Thurman was settled amicably.
They took the right course.
Some-two weeks ago a permanent
happy partnership was formed at
at Chattanooga between Marion
Edge and Miss Minnie Lazenby.
Messrs. T. W. Bowers, of Cassan
dra, and M. D. Lansford, of Catoosa,
gave us some trouble: the pleasant
trouble of entering up two lists of
new subscribers.
John Towers, of the Rome
Courier, will prove a tower of j
strength. His “headlafs items”
may not have a head, bat they
always have a point.
“Stonewall’s Way” that we pub
lished lajst week, has the ring and
the true ring of battle about it. It
may not have been written by a
member of the church, but he was
u fightes.
Last week weaeked Mrs. Withers,
whom we admire as a hostess, why
it was that we.had no babies in the
estray column. The answer came
quickly, “They have mothers to
look after them.”
We congratulate Summerville on
securing Miss M. C. Johnston to
take charge of her school. She is
throughly qualified, and then in
side or outside of the school, we
have never met a more perfect lady.
Set out your peach trees now; I
can supply you from a capital lot of
my own raising, with any variety
you want. For sale very low.
John .Jonks,
4t LaFayette Ga. ,
Two cyadia rubber blankets got
into the wrong buggy last year. As ■
the} - are blind they can’t find their
way home. Their hoard has cost
them nothing, as they have paid
for their keeping by services ren
dered. Who owns them?
We have the promise, from n j
man eminent in the county, of an !
article on the “blue tailed fly.” This -
has no allusion to the old fashioned j
fellow of that name, but it does to I
that new gentleman that got after
the wheat last year.
Squire J. T. Bryan paid us a pop
call last week. He is a good speci
men of the clear headed, sensible,
solid North Georgian. When a
member of the Board of Roads and
Revenues, he served his county
faithfully and acceptably.
Sorrell & Anderson, of Summer
ville, will repair watches, clocks,
sewing machines, guns, pistols, and
all jewelry at reasonable prices.
They will be in LaFayette during
court week for the purpose of re
pairing and selling.
Col. T. C. Gordon, of Catoosa,
and Rev. T. W. Park, spent Monday
night in town, at the Goree djouse,
Mr. Park is young looking, consid
ering the number of marriages he
has been concerned in, and the Col.
doesn’t look as if Chicamauga was
a sickly stream. He left hia name
with us.
Canes are now made which hold
a pint of whiskey. All a man has
has to do is to raise caue and im
bibe. — Detroit Free Press.
The Abel man who wrote that
naturally knows a good deal about
raising Cain. Bui in this part of

residence of the brides mother, two
miles west of LnFayetee, w m. L.
Wade and Mi-? Mary Borges; T.

Virgil Russell gave us a short
call last week. We are glad to see
him out once more, after his long
spell of sickness, lie has an old
man’s pair of legs on as yet, hut
give him a little time, and we be
lieve he will swap Hum off if he is
no horse trader. Miss Kate is im
proving.
Mr. Coker’s letter last night was
cheerful but heavy, clear hut
mixed up,containing coin, currency,
stamps, new subscribers, and a
communication. We tender him
our thanks. Whatever he does is
put up in business shape—and then
he is a worker. The Messenger at
Trion is in good hands.
Several papers in the State are
prophesying that Ben Hill will not
be returned to the United States
Senate. While we are no gluttons
on Ben Hill, we are willing to het
one of the finest donkeys in Hart
county against anybody’s mule that
he will be returned. — Hartwell Sun.
Come, old fellow, don’t make that
het. You might lose, and then
who would run the Sun.
The Messenger has lost a sub
scriber. On Wednesday of last
week the wife of Tom Allen, a
colored man in the Town District,
went to one of our citizens for
whom Tom had worked, and got a
dollar to buy some meat. When
Torn came home at night, and found
what she had done, he was very
angry, and getting his gun, threat
ened to shoot her. A couple of
colored men, who came in and
stayed all night, kept the difficulty
down. After they left in the morn
ing, the wife took the gun off from
the house, and after firing it off,
hid }U This started matters afresh.
Tom in his rage threw the chairs
out ot the house, fend began cutting
them up with an axe. His wife
told him not to act so simple, and
tried to take a chair away from
him. What happened next, she
does not know, but when she came
to, tier head and face were badly
cut and bleeding. She had been
knocked down. Tom has left, but
forgot to leave his address.
We are looking for clever men.
And as ttie.se words look you full
in the face, let them say to thal we
want you to be one of those clever
! men —if there is any balance on the
! Messenger’s books against you.
When you come to court, coine pre
pared to settle off any claim we
may have against you. A subscrip
tion account is one of those small
things that men frequently neglect
because it is small. At the same
| time it is a debt of honor. If a
! man doesn’t want to pay it, no one
j is going to try to make him. When
you appeal to a man’s honor, you
make the strongest of all earthly
1 appeals.
We are still owing a balance on
i the office —help us to wipe that out
If you can’t pay anything, never
theless come to see us, look us in
the face, and tell us that when
your pocKet booK becomes better
j lined you wiil he round and divide,
i There are no people that pay up
| better and more willingly than the
people of this section, and. we have
| faith in them.

improving slowly. Mis. Lucinda
Lawrence is in better health than
she has been for two years past.
One good store in our little city

Go to Mr. S. D. Brice before you

Feb. 1,1881. Toi.erabi.is.
Duck Creek —All is quiet along
the line.
Mr. Jonathan Wall, an honorable
old gentleman of this vicinity is
and has been for some timo pa3l in
very l’cehle health. Mr. Wall has
been a very industrious, temperate,
and quiet gentlemen who is beloved
by all who know him! As he retires
from the duties of the busy world
with decrepitude and disease, who
will follow in his well ordered steps
and make just such men?
We learned from the road com
missioneis of Wilson District, that
there are about twenty twoandjone
half miles of public road, and two
hundred handssubjeetto road duty,
j which is one hundred and ninety
eight yards for each hand From this
statement, I think we should have
better roads. Roscius.
Shin Bone.— The farmers have
all begun a new crop around here
I notice several of them are plow
ing and fixing their lands for plan
ting. Some ot them are not .done
picking cotton yet; they are picking
earlier this year than common.
On Monday last Mr. Cicero Mc-
Connells cow fell in his well out
she was not seriously injured. The
neighbors gathered in and several
efforts were made to get her out
and at last they were successful
and brought her to the top safe and
tolerably sound.
The Rev. Mr. Camp, of Armuchee
preached a good sermon at Chat
tooga church on last Sabbath.
Prof. Taylor’s string hand is yet
progressing with its big base music.
The wheat crop is lookiug badiy
around here.
To the happy couple married on
the 30th inst. we wish long and
happy lives. W.
B.rgom Town.— We were very
much surpri ed to hear that appli
cation had been made lor license to
retail spirituous liquors in our dis
trict. We have long been noted
I for sober, peaceable high-toned cit
izens. And prosperity has attend
ed us on every hand. But let the
intoxicating beverage he retailed in
our midst and I fear the conse
quences. Let us have an election
and stop it, and let every man who
loves good society, flourishing
schools, peaceable citizens and is a
friend to Christianity, come out and
defend these rights.
We had beautiful weather for
work last week, and farmers made
good use of it,
Mr. JobD Agnew is having a new
house erected.
Miss Sallie Wardlaw of Rome is
visiting relatives in Broomtown.
Mr. T. J. Simmons and family
from Chattooga, are visiting rel
atives in Walker.
Mr. Mack Edwards school open
ened Monday. Sandford.
Eagle Cliff.— There would be
several advantages of a no lence
' law, first the improvement of stock,
: less stock, but a great deal better.
What would we want with so much
stock, if all the land that is adapted
to cotton, was growing it. We could
kill out sassafras-patches, by pastur
ing them, Instead of one-fence
■ around the farm, and enough to do
. to keep that one-fence up, a small
farm would take over 10,000 ruiis
to fence it. Is the most of the county
to be thrown out on tho common,
through our barbarous fence laws?
Our cotton interest will he nipped
| in the bud, if we do not adopt
I the no-fence law or make pasture
’! for our cattle, I just heard of a
j neighborhood where the cattle are
i running at large and destroying the
, picking of the last of the cotton. In
a good many places several farms
are in one field, and in this neigh
borhood they luin their cattle in
long before all the corn or cotton
j is gathered and if anything is said,
they say, make your fences. The
no-fence law would give us time to
gather in our corn, cotton, etc, and
j protect our wheat, clover, etc., and
j no tramping the land at large by
1 everybody’s stock. Wilson.
Eager Cui'K. —Fanners are put- j
| ting in very good time at work .
j now.
The health of the neighborhood j
is very good.
Our old friend Frank Smith is i
ist II improving. Ho would like to !
! retd the Messenger. I’lease send |
| it to him S months.
Our bailiff, Mr. Bradley, late nf
Crawfish, hut now of this valley,
lis having a lively time. Bome J
J men try to bluff officers, but he
■ don’t bluff worth a cent.
Captain Joel passed through here
Saturday. We don’t like to see:
I Sheriffs so far from home. They j
| might be on business. When 1
heard some one wondering who he
was nfter, I thought of an incident
■ that occurred several years ago. 1
| was in the woods with a negro when
| we saw three men coming toward
1 us. I told him it was the Sheriff
I and his posse, and that they must
] he after one of us, and ns I had |
l never done anything, it must he )
J “you they are after.” He turned i
as white as it was possible for him
| to, and looked up and said: “I have
| done paid Mr. Bailey two dollars
for his old sow, and Mr. Whitlow
was to pny him the other two.” His ]
name was Ed.
A crazy man once picked up a j
calf and carried it around the house ]
|in his arms. He thought the next
j morning that he could carry as
j much more as the calf had grown; j
| and so he thought every morning, j
j and.kept up the practice until the j
I calf was six years old.
Jaenah.
Does our correspondent know j
anything about the rnnn who car
ried the calf into the Court House? j
Cedar Grove.—The mud is:
dried up some (what a story I )and
the farmers have commenced pre
paring for a crop, and cotton is all
the go.
The prospects for wheat looks
gloomy.
The fall sowing of oats has been
killed by the severe winter.
The cholera is still killing the
stock hogs.
There is strong probability of two
or three cotton gins being put up
at this place by fall and one steam
saw mill.
Capt. Wood has a good school
here.
The Sabbath school here is in a
flourishing condition.
Rev. Mr. Reynolds preached a
[ good sermon here las* Sunday. He
| will preach here tho first Sunday
■ in each month.
Politics is at a low ehh in our j
burg. The signsof the times for the j
past few weeks at the National Leg- j
slature and the various State Leg- j
Mature is not favorable for the
I plow boy or the plow holder, But |
| all tend towards elevating the j
bondholder. Politics are getting j
more and more like trading. Can- j
I didat.es exchange one candidate for j
another, like a merchant trading for ;
! a basket of eggs.
The next Senate and House of
Re; retentatlves will he largely com
posed of new men. It used to he
Senators were mnde out of the j
large stout oaks, but now since bar- |
ter and trade has been resorted to j
by office seekers, many offices of j
trust and honor are made out of
the low and crocked timber, such
as willow and other pliant and soft j
wood that will give to, and shrink j
to the money monopoly, and the i
talented and strong men arc left out.
By accidents and circumstances!
the rail road ring can control and j

You re Respectfully. Etna.
CHATTOOGA COUNTY.
Sunr.iGNA Ga. We have been .
j Merced the past week with beauti- j
ful sunshine, the contrast between
