THE CHEERY T.AITR ANNUAL FES
TIVAL.
The morning wns bright ami beßUtiful;
not even a fragment of a cloud rested upon
the horiiou. Old ocean* breathings came
•weeping through the forest, playing na
ture's sweetest melodies on the stringed
foliage of the majestic pines, und coquet
ing with the lenfy oaks where natures own
sweet, native songsters chant their natal
melodies. It is in the wild woods, sub
limely beautiful, natures grand cathedral.
Where the suu steals through every iutes
ticy of the vast green roof of oak and pine.
The air savory' with resinous oders, inspir
ing animal nature with the most delight
ful sensations, an all subduing stillness
prevails, broken only by the song of birds
by day and the whipowill's song by night.
Except on these aunual festival occasions
the birds and beasts bold an undivided
swav, an undisputed dominion to tliis sol
emn retreat from year to year. But a
■Coffee, a McNair, a Groover, a Hawkins,
indeed, all the citizens of the community,
announce a day in the Spring time, when
birds sing sweetest, and the flowers are
fresh and frugraut, the forest green
est and most umbragious when the solem
nity of the quiet solitudes shall be dis
turbed by the higher order of intelligences
and utilized to promote social and intel
lectual enjoyment, and every heart is
fraught with munificence and liberality, and
every tongue proclaims the anticipated joys
of the coming, coming day.
Then every prepartion is made, the
platform is erected for terpsichorean exer
cises, the table is built, the swiugs are Mis
pended, tc grounds cleansed.and the ave
nues opened afresh into those sacred soli
tudes. And while it is yet early, the morn
iug breezes not gone to rest, animated in
telligence throng the native wilds and
claims precedence for the day, and the
natal choiristers in mute astonishment ac
knowledge the s premacy, and cease to
sing their songs. Friday, the 15th inst.,
was the day appointed for this festival oc
casion, and it was our misfortune, on ac
count of our lute start and a slow team, not
to reach that delightful destina a, until
the sun had nsseuded to the nicredinu; but
our presence was not needed, the asst ra
•binge was large, composed of nri high or
wler of intelligence randy excelled, and of
twauties scarcely rivaled. And while we
did uot 'then feel, nor do we now
feel, that our presence were essential
to the enjoyment of any, we ac
knowledge with gratitude, the cordial re
ception we met. There was nothing for
us to do to amplify the festivities. Noth
ing that wo could do would enhance the
ariy.for the young anti joyous
hearts were thrilled with rhapsodies and
the occasion had attaint*] the zenith of its
glory ere we arrived. And into the noon
tide of pleasure we were ushered. Ami if
there was auy indifference manifested to
ward us, our sensitive nature did not ob
serve it, and if any special favors were
shown us, we were not vaiu enough to re
cognize it as a tribute to merit, but an
act of disinterested benevolence.
Immediately upon our arrival we were
informed by some lady friends, that the
little girl* of the neighborhood school had
prepared a delicate offering which they
■proposed to tender to the three editors
theu present, ourself included. We were
summoned to the stand surrounded by the
large and intelligent assemblage to witness
the delivery and reception of these pre
eious offerings. Suddenly came rustling
like the breezes of autumn,through the fa
ded wood, a group of fairy-like girls, or
miniature angels, three of whom held each
in their little white hands a beautifully
moulded and exquisitely ornamented cake
to be presented as aforesaid. The first
waa presented to Mr. Ellenwood, of the
Madison Recorder, by MissDocia Henderson
and Miss Ella McDonald, he, in a dignified
manner, accepted it and in a stile some
what poetical and beautiful, expressed his
gratitude and appreciation with other
handsome and appropriate remarks to the
audience generally.
The next was presented to Mr. Mcln
tosh, of the Quitman Reportrr, by Miss
Mary Coffee and Miss Eddie Henderson.
He likewise accepted his with dignified
and appropriate remarks highly creditable
to himself.
Next came our lot to receive the compli
ment tendered us from the little white
hands of two little angel girls. Miss Liz
r.ie McNair and Miss Lizzie Reid Coffee,
and in the great confusion of our ideas,
surrounded with strange, but beautiful and
inteligent faces, we endeavored to give utter
ance to the gratitude we felt in our heart of
hearts to these ltttle fair ones. In our em
barrassment we did not know what we
were saying, and it may be a blessing to
ns now that we cannot call to memory
what we did say, but we do know that
we felt grateful and tried to express it, and
if we failed to make ourself understood,
we wish to impress it upon that entire
dear people and particularly those little
girts, that they, the day, and the occasion,
will be treasured-up in-the jeweled casket
of memory, and when the mind reverts,
and the past is restropectcd.it will be to us
as a green isle gone by, a cherished remi
nence. Soon after this, dinner was an
nounced, and we propose to dispose of
j that iu a few words. It lias uover been
excelled in this or any other „country on
such an occasion. If there was anything
wanting to make tho feast Complete, we
were not suffiiciently epietiriltn to discover
the deficit. Dinner was served mid all ap
petites satiated, the largo concourse dis
persed and formed little social groups, and
the enjoyment was undisturbed until the
the sun had gone far down the skies.
Now it is due to the Quitman Cornet
Band, which was in attendance, to state
that at intervals through the day they
discoursed many of their sweetest pieties
which was no slight contribution to the
pleasure of the duy, and it too, realized a
rich share of the compliments. Mrs.
Wyclie, Mrs. Move and Miss Roseter hud
provided a most elegant offering, to be
presented to the members, consisting of
two mosaike cakes elegantly dressed, with
a large cluster, or, combination of beati
' ful flowers, artistically arranged in the
form of an ott omun, all of which were pre
; sented at once by Mr. Denham, of Monti
cello, as the representative of the ladies,
ito Capt. J. G. McCall, of Quitman, who
accepted them on the part of the Baud.
We were too far from Mr. Denham to hear
his remarks, but did hear distinctly Capt.
McCall’s. They were well timed and very
appropriate. |
The festival was a grand success, the
day so lovely, the native forest so wild,
so grand, so majestic. The assemblage so
large, so diversified, so intelligent, the
ladies so beautiful, the hospitality so
boundless, the feast so immitiieenfT the
arrangements so elegant, (lie enjoyment so
mutual and reciprocal.
Now another dance and the festivities of
this memorable day must close, and this
wild domain revert hack to its native
e’a munts. It is time we were gone, the
shadows are growing long, but there is
someone dancing, to whom in sadness,
we must say farewell. Now we have said
farewell, bye bye, and still the dance con
tinues, und still we linger, and still the
shadows leugthen. But there’s another
precious friend to whom we must say fare
well, waiting, all alone, for the dance to j
close, waiting for a friend, perhaps the i
one with whom we have just parted. Ye*
the dance has ended,the music has ceased,
and my two friends are meeting, and again
we w ill say farewell to both, and so we
did, and they have gone, and wedon'tcare
how long the shadows grow or how soon
these j. 1 ides i r - wrapped in the sulile ami
mournful curtains of night.
We have no inclination to go home, now
Mr. Coffee has invited us to his hospitable
home not far distant, and we have accept
ed, and now we are at his house, in the
1 midst of a large number of his friends,
and with them have partaken of an elegant
j evening repast. The dance resumed for
a little while and ended. Many have gone
I homeward, others have retired, and we to
bed, to rest, to sleep, perhaps to dream,
| und thus ends the festival of the lOtli.
X C ard.
We, the undersigned Committee, ap
pointed by tin- Stonewall Fire Company
at its regulnr May meeting, adopt this

Through Ike Country
Visiting the picnic on Friday last,
at Cherry Lrke, in Madison county, Flor
ida, we traveled one route going and an
other returning, which gave us a very fair
opportunity of judging the condition of
crops in a large section of our county.
While the crops east, west and north of
Quitman have suffered seriously from hard
and continued rains, the southern portion
of the county adjoining Florida, have not
suffered at all, hence, planters have their
crops thoroughly clean, though backward,
somewhat, on account of cold nights, they
have a much better appearance than the
other sections of the county. There has
been some difficulty in getting a stand,
but by replanting, the evil is nearly remi
died. The young Messrs. Groover’s crop
on either side of the Madison road, both
corn and cotton is perfectly clean, and
growing beautfully. Their crop is large
for their force, and they have worked
with commendable zeal.

Sorely Urloved,
A young gentleman of our town beoom
! ing suddenly enamored with one of the
; fair ones, hastily, without deliberation, or
premeditation, proposed to make a deed
!of gift to her of all his real estate. Upon
the investigation of his titles it was ascer
luiiied that his only real estate \(h.i a little
log house which had been built some years
ago in one of the then unopened streets,
but which the town Council has since or
dered to be opened. The young mail
still weeps; we dou’t know whether on ac
count of the loss of the girl or the discov-!
ery of the defect in his title. Wa can
heartily sympathize with the young man, j
as our failures have been very similar to j
his and our real estate located iu like 1
places.

Mr. T. M. Allen, of Macon, Ga., has'
just received his patent to his new plow.
The simplicity of its construction, its
and durability will at ouce
satisfy tile observer that it is a most supe
rior plow. The undersigned owns one

State and County rights on favorable
terms. A complete model cun be saeu

This is a fine opportunity to make
money. A party purchasing county rights
can double his money by selling plantation i
rights. Call and see for yourselves,

The Floral Klhlbltloa
at Thomasvillo, next Thursday, we have
no doubt will be grand and largely at
tended. If it will in any wise compare 1
with last year's exhibition it will be well
worth the day and the expenses. We
hope to be there and hope to see a large
attendance from our county.
Our Sfymimtliy
is with the Indy who lost her pet at the
pic uic, and on account of which she so
bitterly wept, when she and others might
have slept. We hope the dead is alive, and
that the prodigal purp has returned, and
that the rejoicing will compensate for the
weeping.

DEAitSms: I have been afleted with
rheumatism mid neuralgia combined (us
pronounced by several physicians) for
twenty-two years. I have suffered more
than a sound man could imagine; have
tried every thing that was recommended
to me, without receiving lasting benefit,
My ease has been pronounced an incura
ble one by several doctors of experience.
Your “Magic Arnica Liniment” waR pre
scribed for ine by Doctor Chapshaw, of
l Athens, Alabama, a few weeks ago. I
used it with a faint hope and little faitli in
' its doing me any good; but I am happy
to inform you that I was very agreeable
j disappointed. I found relief from the
i first application, and slept soon nfter,
which had been an impossibility with me
I the most of the time for the last several
! months, without first taking an opiate,
j On awakening after tho first application, I
| applied tho Liniment again, and soon
; dropped off to sleep, and have not lmd a
I severe attacked since. I have used two

A Financial Bat. Some time ago. when the
river was high and the gutters full of water, an
enormous rat, gray with age and fat as nn alder
man, crawled out of the canal street gutter and
rushed into the store of Messrs. Morrison A
Woodward, bearing in his mouth something that
fluttered about like a pice of paper, lie was tired
and bedraggled, and deposited his burden behind
the first box and sat down to rest. One of tho gen
tlemen present made a dash at bis ratship, and
nway he went, leaving behind the rrticlo lie had
iu his month, and which proved to boa tlve dollar
greenback. Whether the rat intended this as a
contribution to thosffereraby the overflow, or whs
himself moving to avoid the encroaching waters,
we are unable to say. but certain it is that he has
not yet returned to claim tho property. -JVetc
