Hon. A. 0. Bacon, ot Macon, will be
an aspirant for the Democratic nomi
nation for Governor. He is a man of
ability and experience and a good deal
worse selection might be made —The
Clarion.
The crops in Pierce, especially about
Blackshear, are exceptionably fine.
The city of Greensboro was blessed
«ith a good rain on Sunday afternoon,
accompanied with some wind.
Good rains have made the farmers of
Richmond county happy at the pros
pect of an abundant yield of all kinds
of crops.
A heavy rain and thunder storm vis
ited Albany about noon on Friday.
The rain seemed to be general. It was
generally needed, more or less.
pawson crop prospects are simply
inlendid. The outlook for cotton was
never better, and our corn crop will be
. large one. All other crops are doing
we U_/;<m'g<m Journal.
There is certainly no want of rain in
this section if every community has
had as much os Blakely. There has
been a shower every afternoon, with a
few exceptions, for the past ten or
twelve days.
So far the crops of corn, cotton and
fruit of all kinds about Alpharetta are
without a precedent for promising;
with one or two more rains an abund
ant crop is assnred in this county, and
no Western corn will find a market
here next year.
Mr. M. P. Callaway, of Calhoun
county, says -he has the best
best crop he lias ever made on
hii plantation. He thinks he has
nJfie four thousand bushels of oats on
less than two hundred acres. His corn
and cotton are fine.
Says the Sumpter Republican. Mr.
J. J. Nicholson says he had tiie
heaviest rain Tuesday afternoon that
ever fell. He bad two wagon loads of
osts hauled up to thresh out, and after
the rain had to wade out with hooks
and fish np his crop.
Such crops! The like has scarcely
ever been seen in Talbot before. The
farmers are out of the grass, the sea
sons have been abundant, and every
agriculturist wears a smiling face. New
cribs to hold the corn, and the cotton
houses puat be built larger to hold the
cotton.
The unanimous' verdict is that the
crop prospect is most flattering. If the
seasons continue favorable a few weeks
longer the corn crop will be made.
Cotton is doing its very heat and will
neveniromise more satisfactory results.

STRAY ITEMS.
Gathered In and Araund Albany by our
Regular Correenondent.
Aluanv, July 2.1.—The prohibition
question is being discussed here to
some extent, and it is probable that
Dougherty will make an effort to join
the long list of prohibition counties,
should the local option bill pass the
Senate. It is believed that the colored
vote would be almost solid for prohibi
tion, and I think it safe to say that a
large majority of the white vote would
go the same way.
Scarlet fever is not considered dan
gerous here.

Artesian House. Last night he was
Boom for Turner.
The suggestion of the Advertiser a
few weeks ago that Coweta might have
a candidate for Governor in the person
of Major W. A. Turner, seems to have
been received with great favor. We
have heard many expressions from onr
leading and influential men, and from
the people generally, and they have
without exception said that lie was
their first choice of all the men whose
names have been mentioned in that
connection. We do not donbt that he
can receive the support of all this sec
tion of the State. We also learn from
isrties, who are posted, that many of
lis admirers in the Legislature, from
other sections, are urging him to allow
his name to be used as a candidate for
the nomination. He has not as yet
given his consent, on the ground that
only a rich man can aflord to bo Gov
ernor.—Coweta Advertuer.
Warnl-s the Public.
Editor Ward, the old bell-wether of
this paper, staited en route for Rome,
tia., at 11 o’clock a. m. last Tuesday.
When hp left here he had on a stand
ing collar and was wearing a semi-
beaver hat. All three of his pants
pockets were well stuffed with ginger
cake and the hind legs of rumpless
rooster chickens. The people of Rome,
especially the ladies, will find him an
extremely clever and social gentleman.
He is a married man, however. He
wilt be of great service to the Sunday-
school cause if he can be well supplied
with ginger cakes and chicken pie
both of which articles we predict wit
he scarce in Rome after hiaideparturo
from that beautiful city. The Romans
will be able to recognize him by the
following ear-mark: Crop and under
bit in one ear, under slope in the other,
tail oiosely cropped, branded “N. R.,’ 1
for no-removal.—Ilaxley Banner.
Captain W. H. Morgan has jnst re
turned from Dooly, and he says the
crops in that county are just as tine ss
can be. He was at a public meetingin
Vienna this week, and he heard reports
from all parts of the county, and the
farmers boast not only of good crops of
cotton, bnt com, potatoes, peas and
sugar cane.
Says the Dublin Post: "The present
ontlookfor a good corn crop through
out this county is very flattering in
deed. While in some parts, on account
of too much wet weather the first week
or two in June, and, In many places, a
continued drouth since, the prospect
for ui average crop is somewhat gloomy
the yield of the whole county, we may
safely say .will prove above an average.
Many farmers, in favored portions of
the county, will realize from fifteen to
twenty-five and thirty bushels per acre.
It la generally believed that the cotton
yield will not be so great ae
the outlook Indicated a month or two
since. Borne of the farmers are of the
opinion that there will not be a half
crop made. But this is a mistaken
idea. No cultivated farm has ever
failed to produce one half of an average
crop. Besides, in many places the
crop la above an average. We think
from tho information we have received
that fully two-thirds of a cotton crop
will be realized by the planters of tbit
county. The crops of sugar cane, po
tatoes, peas, etc., are tolerably fair,
witli a chance to improve with the sea
sons of this and next month.—Dublin
Boit.
The Mao#n nmi Dub In Railroad,
Alixntows, July 21.—Mr. Arthur
Poa states that he will not continue the
location of the road beyond Jefferson
ville until later in the summer, on ac
count of the severe beat. He will go
to New York City and spend several
weeks. The last survey of the road
ran between Dr. Ira Dupree’s dwelling
and kitchen, which is only a few feet
apart. The Doctor will doubtless move
his dwelling.

Rogera’ house last Sunday. Thia is

Augusta's Naw Road.
President Mitchell informed the
Evening News to-day that his now nar
row gauge, the Augusta, Gibson and
8andersvilie railroad, would retch
Gibson the latter part ot Augnst. This
is gi>od news Indeed, and especially to
the impatient people ol Glascock and
Washington counties, who never hear
the engine whistle and who are pant
ing to catch a first glimpse of the spank
ing new train as it dashes through
their farms into the little city
ol Gibson. Work is pro
gressing very rapidly now and regular
schedules are ran every day for nearly
30 miles out of Augusta. Gibson is SO
miles from Augusta, and thus a little
over 20 miles of perfectly level country
remain to bo covered with the narrow
rails. We congratulate President
Mitchell on the energy with which he is
keeping up his good work, and we feel
that we can almost shake bands and
rnn down any day to see the good peo
ple along the Ogeecbee river.

ingion, and Mr. Elgin Loclirane of
Atlanta; Mr. Walter Young of Atlanta,
and Miss Carrie Gartrell of Atlanta
Mr. Martin Amorous of Atlanta, ant
Miss Lucy Gartrell of Atlanta. The
church was beautifully decorated and
the chancel presented the appearance
of a veritable conservatory, grac
ed as it was with so many
and such a variety of rare
exotics and exquisite native flowers in
a growing condition. At the rear of
the chancel, suspended from an arch
of evergreen, was a beautifully wrought
floral monogram, representing the
names of tho contracting parties, the
O being mado of red geraniums and
the P Ming composed of white gerani
ums and roses. In front of tho chancel
waa another arch of evergreen, from
which hung a beautiful floral parasol
that formed a lovely canopy for the
bride and groom during the ceremony.
At the end of the two tuslcs thore were
wickets made of vines and beautiful
flowers that gave entrance to the space
in front ot the chancel. When the
hour appointed for tho marriage
arrived, Professor Barilli, of Atlanta,
began to play the wedding march, and
the bridal party entered the church,
being preceded by two little girls,
daughters of Mr. Hugh Gordon, of At
lanta, and Mr. John E. Rosser, of this
place, who opened the wickets above
mentioned and gave to the bridal com
pany entrance to tlio space in front of
the chancel, whero they took their re
spective positions, and Dr. Hopkins ad
vancing into the aliar-place, read in an
earnest and impressive manner the sol
emn marriago service by means of
which the chief actors in the
ecene were soon msde man

to advertise in the usual way. I sup-
pore they thought that so
