Personal* Our genial old friend of many years, > Major Watkins, of Columbus, repre senting the old, excellent and reliable i house of Bedell A Cos., gave us a call on Thursday. Mnj. Watkins has been travel ing for the house for nine or ton years. We have met him in various sections of the country, and have been cognizant, of many Of his business transactions, and we have never known a merchant to complain. Never has the charge been ma le that the bouse didn’t send the goods corresponding With the agenti samples. The fair dealing ; Of Major Watkins, and tire house he reji resnts, is getting to he well known here, and he always sells when he comes. The Bert that heats the beet that. beat, the Thomas- Ville beet or any other beet, was given to us | last Saturday. We had no rule with which to measure it, nor scales on which to weigh it., but we do say, that it was the redest beet, and the beat-nest beet for length and thickness, we ever saw. We are determined to sustain onr reputation for veracity, therefore, We will not ven ture to guess at either size or weight; but we will state that with the assistance of two ladies and one gentleman, we got it into O'.: y buggy. v> e Wete. .very anxious to publish the name- of the producer ei this huge esculent, hut Mis. Reding de clared if we told that she raised it, that she would never give us another beet no matter how large her beets grew, but would make her husband give us a beating and for fear of missing the beet, nud get ’ ting the beating, wo won’t tell. You needn’t ask us, we won t do it. : o :• Tito Church Euchred tile Show. It was announced by handbills,through out our town on Wednesday last, that therewould be an exhibition given, free of charge, at Kayton’s Hall that evening, embracing songs, plays, slight of hand, Ventriloquism, spiritualism, etc., etc., and that on tbe following night a simnlar ex hibition would be given for which a charge of fifty cents for each person would be made, anil that out of the proceeds a lib eral donation would be made to any chari table purpose, or public enterprise that the audience might suggest. So on the liight of the free show, the Baptists were there, and the Methodist were there, the Presbyterians were there, and the Demo crats were there, and the Devils (Radicals) were there; hut on the night when admis sion was fifty cents the church members with four honorable and liberal exceptions were absent, and so it was with the devils, they were all absent for they hale' liberal ity. There was a few present, hut not enough to justify the actors in performing. To the performance of Mr. Addison no exceptions eonld he taken, it was very amusing, but perfectly Chastand innocent. And oh I how the dear church people did <*njoy it, but when it cojneto display their liberality, and let the showman feel happy in his turn, churclr members was scarce, and devils not One. While we do not know what we may do in the future there is ttro thing that we have fully determined never to do, one is never, to steal the butter off of a blind negroes bread, the other is never to steal a show man’s fun, for that is bis bread. A Cute Trick. Griffin, the Post Master at this place, being a simple minded, unsuspecting, con fiding sort of being, has been induced by bis shrewd associate and daily companion to work for and Obtain the nomination as the Radical candidate for the Senate. If elected it leaves the office of Post Master vacant and there is no other white Radical that approximates simon purity, but his present companion, E. C. Wade, he will necessarily step in. Griffin will be Sena tor with all the honors with about two hundred and forty dollars a year, and Wade will boss the postal department on aniDcomeof from Si,ooo to 5i,200 per annum. Sam, assisted by Wade, in the sale of postage stamps in Savannah and elsewhere, has made the post office here no insignificant thing. But whether it is right for Sam to buy all of his provisions in Savannah with postage stamps and in crease his salery here for stamps sold there is a Radical act, the correctness of which the Radical Administration must deter mine, Look at thi* and then look at that, wo mean by that, the advertisement of Mr. ,1. A. Irvine A Son, which appears iu another column of this issue. It is very often the case with men who advertise in newspapers to demand when they hand in tlieir advertisements j what is called an editorial puff. We state candidly now that it has been our purpose and intention ull the time and iu every in stance, in refering Jjto the business of our patrons to do them and their business jus tice and no more, so as not to deceive and | mislead our subscribers, who are likewise our patrons, and if we have inflated any one’s sales, or given to them or their busi ness a character unmerited, it was on error of judgement and not of intention.. In calling your attention to the advertise- i moiit of Irvine A- Son, remember that it i does not appear in onr columns either ns a [ license or a bribe to an exngernted repre- I sentation of the firm or their business. : But it is our duty, editorially, tocallatten ; tion to the advertisement of any one who I patronizes us so liberally, anil strictly | guided by truth and honor advocate liis | claims to public patronage. Mr. Irvine s claim to public patronage doesn’t consist in the fact that he was bred and born in your county and lias been your friend for many years, but liis claims to public pat ; ronngo is of a business character, and de pends upon principle and his manner of doing business. If he proposes to sell you j goods ten per cent higher upon the cash jor credit system than other men offer to sell for cash or on credit, upon principle, | he would not be entitled to your patronage j riee-yersa. If in doing strictly a cash Ims | incss ho offers you as good goods ns cheap | as any other man doing a cash business, liis | claim to your patronage is equal to the oth- I er. If he sells a little or a great deal less,the j principles that govern nil men in their i business transactions would satisfy your | mind at once that he had the highest claim to your patronage. Upon these princi ples Irvine & Son advertises, and upon these principles we present them to the public. They keep a large and elegant : assortment of dry goods, hats, caps, boots, ! shoes and ready made clothing, and a gon- I oral assortment of family groceries, con sisting of all the weighty as well as fancy articles, and of flour they propose to make ! a specialty, they have now and will con ; staidly keep on hand n large supply of a | most excellent article, which they purchase ! direct from the mill, avoiding all com i missions which will enable them to sell I cheaper than when the article is obtained j either from whole sale or through com ] mission merchants. They propose to sell i exclusively for cash or produce and in do ling so they will sell at very short, profits. We would advise our friends to buy as lit | tie as possible and buy exclusively for cash, and buy attliffeash stores where their goods are marked to sell .for cash. Reader, when you come to town just step into the house of Irvine A Son and exam ine their goods and price them, anil if they I don’t correspond with their advertisement ; in this paper, don’t buy; wo huveeonfi ! deuce iu the cash system and believe that ! this firm can and will satisfy you. Special Attention is called to the advertisement of tho Quit- ; man Factory in this issue. This grand , public enterprise in our little county, un der the supervision of Dr. Henry Briggs, should boa source of pride to every citi zen of Southern Georgia, ns it is and will prove to he a source of profit and benefit to the whole country. All of Southern Georgia should feci specially interested, and readily and cheerfully give to this es tablishment their encouragement and pat ronage. Don’t hositate because it isn’t lo cated in your county, it is in your section. There is constantly on hand such articles as they manufacture and merchants in | (leorgia and Florida can ho supplied at all j times, and we think.that it will be, to their : interest as well as to the interest of our j section, to spend their money at home and I build up home interests. I- iiif Day. Yesterday was fast day with the colored people in Quitman of the Methodist per | suasion, and the minister enjoined upon j the members n strict observance of this I ancient custom, telling them while it was ! a duty and fast they must on this occasion, ! he told them that lie could not observe it j as sister had gone to gr''at trouble ! to prepare a dinner and had invited him to dine, and brother Gadsden did cat and was filled. A New Kllk. We are credibly informed that a military company has been organized X Gatildeus Church in this county under the direction of the firm of Wade & Griffin. The said firm assuring the negroes that join, that af ter a certain time they will receive sixteen dollars per month. But, that in order to become members they must pay to the said firm of Wade if: Griffin, each 25 cents and 25 cents monthly so long as the remain members. Quere: Are they recruiting for the United States army ? Certainly not for the State. To the ho vi r* of Music. In our local Columns will be seen the ad ; vertisement of Mr. H. L. Schriner, of ! Savannah, who is offering remarkable in ducements in the sale of sheet music. Parties wishing music can order directly from him. He is a fare dealer and will fill orders promptly. Lailfcu A Bate*.

An old citizen of Crofton, Kentucky, who was troubled by owls tfrat invaded his hennery, got rid of £them the other day. One night he ground a scythe-blade very keen, and split a pole twenty feet long, inserted the blade and hoisted the pole. Owls never lit on this but once. One gallon of owl toes were picked up next morning, and the farmer has not lost a hen since. ‘‘l tell you,” said a Wisconsin man to neighbor next day after burying his wife, “when I came to get into bed, and lay thar, and not hearing Lucinda jawing around foi* an hour and a half, it just made me feel as if I'M tubved into a strange country,” orII PUT IS I)ISAM.

He says: “It is awfully annoying to have some other fellow’s clothes left iu one’s room by the washerwoman. Saturday wo put on another fellow’s shirt, anil couldn't wear it. Although it was rutiled around the bottom, tho sleeves were too short to put cuffs on, and there was no place for a collar.” GRANT HAS KILLED “CIVIL RIGHTS." The Tribune's Washington correspon dent, under ditto of Friday, telegraphs that ‘‘it is thought a clear insight lias been obtained into the reasons for the apathy which pervades tho Republican party in tho House regarding tho Civil Rights Rill. The President, it seems, is against the hill, mid from report makes no conceal ment of his opposition even to the race to ho benefitted by I Ito law. Ho was recently approached by a Republican Congressman (a colored mail), who desired to obtain tho President’s ideas and opinions ns to its adoption. Much to the astonishment of tho member and of all the members,and of all tho colored men who have heard of it, the President expressed himself as deci dedly opposed to tho bill. Tho colored nieii say the President has broken every promise made to them during the cam paign two years ago, and that the defeat of the Civil Rights Bill is due to his in finence. (Jen.
