The biggest thing in Albany, or in
Southwest Georgia, as for that matter,
is our artesian well with its pure, cura
tive mineral water. During the year
that it has been in existence it has
cured more people of dyspepsia and
kidney complaints than can be traced
or truly credited to any of the cele
brated springs of the country, and i
is destined yet to make Albany a great
health resort.
Mrs. M. E. Sperry, of Marshall-
viile, is in the city, stopping at the
Barnes House. She will remain sev
eral weeks to drink our artesian wa
ter for the benefit of her health, and is
also availing herself of the opportuni
ty to receive instruction from Mrs. R.
J. Bacon in the art of painting. Mrs.
Sperry was a pupil of Mrs. Bacon
when a young lady, and therefore
knows how to appreciate her skill as
an artist.

thing had got wrong with the air
brakes of the train, and fho engineer
was anabic to control them from the
engine. Mr. Bnnting discovered where
the trouble was, and ran under tbe
train, which had come to a slandstill,
to remore it. As soon as he accom

What Shall Bo Lone With the
Fountain?
It havii.g been decided by the City
Council to remove the fountain from
its present site over the artesian well,
the next question that arises is. what
shall 1*9 done with it? It cost ihe city
too much money, and is too hand-nine
a thing to be thrown away. It has
been sugge-tt-d by »-mm*, and we learn
that the suggestion will be urged be
fore tile City Council at i r next
meeting, to have the fountain placed
at the intersection of Broad and Wash
ington • trecta, a! tho terminus of the
main pipe that c.-mes down Broad
9'rcr! from the well. Capt. K. L.
Wight is the originator «.f this idea,
and his plan is ! • r i c the fountain
about two feet above the surface of the
ground, and run n waste pipe from
the hssin into the scw«r that goe« to
th*r.vi*r. Thus the wat*-r would be
kept rt-n*unil\ tnoring through the
main pipe that supplies the hydrants
on Broad street, and the'flow of the
well would not be hindered in the
least. Tin* basin of the ountam
would be h public and convenient
watering, place for horses, and the
fountain would thus heeome useful as
well as ornamental. We can see no
objection to Capt. Wight's proposi
tion, and really think it contemplates
the besl disposition that can be made
of the fountain

day is not far distant when the water
melon, aided by the early Iri-h po
tato, the green pea, the wax bean, the
luscious strawberry, and even the
colicky cucumber, will completely

land within five miles of every rail

become dedicated to truck farming,

Sam Solomon and Thomas Laner,
two colored boys about fourteen years
ol agf, have got themselves into seri
ous trouble. For several days past
some of the leading !msim-=s houses of
tl e city, ;hc Central Railroad Bank
among th-> number, had been unable to
account forthcuniisuallrsraall amount
of mail found in their boxes a' the
Postoffice, until last Wednesday even
ing, w lien it iva- discovered that the
boxes were being robbed by some
body outside. Officer Barllcy Ben
nett took the case in band, and Yoon
had Sam Solomon and Thomas Laney
spotted as the robbers. Our Postoffice
has the Yale Lock or “Security” boxes
and drawers, which open from tbe
outside with keys. The doors are
metal skeletons lined inside with glass,
and when t jc glass is removed there
are apertures in them large enough to
admit a small finger. Sam and Thomas
found that they could reach the spring
bolts with which the doors are fasten
ed on the inside, and thus open tie
boxes out of which the glasses had
been broken almost as readily as those
could, who held the keys to them.
They kept up their little
gamo -of robbery for two or three days,
and it will probably never be known
bow many letters they got their hand-
on. They ttere bo'h arrested and lodg
ed in j i il nieht before last, and one of

here in a day’or two to take them in
charge.

Crop Outlook In Mltcbell
In an interview with Mr. D. L.
Hayo, one of the live and progressive
young farmers of Mitrhell, who was
in town on Sunday last, a representa
tive of the Kcwsaxd Advertiser
learned that the condition of affairs in
his sreiion if the county, which ia the
river portion, and embraces its .best
farming land*-, was far from satisfac
tory. The same causes that have op
erated to retard farm work this year
in Dougherty, viz: heavy flo -ds, suc
ceeded hy a proirach d and unseasona
bly warm dro'nth. have thrown the
planters in Mitchell even further be
hind than in Dougherty. Very little
corn has been planted as ret, and
owing to the lateness of the season,
the larger farmers will be compelled
to resort to a systi m known as sham
ming their land, viz: planting before
they have fully prepared the ground,
and rely upou making up for the de
fvetire preparation m the subsequent
cultivation. The ares in oals has been
curtailed on many places from that
sown last year, but the general aver
age ares he thought would be main
tained. The c-.-tton area would not be
much reduced, although nearly all of
his neighbor* would take considerable
in truck nr div-rsified farming this

A THRIVING TOWN,
Albany’s Bapld Improvement and
Bright Proapeeta
From the Micro Telegni-b and Mcmenser.
Albany, February 28.—From per
sonal experience, I am prepared to
say that Chan Jones is a brick.
Chan is our local correspondent here,
snd malicious people have dubbed
him the Henry Grady of Southwest
Georgia. As soon as I had Inscribed
my honored autograph upon the fat
pages of Cruse Barnes’ tavern regis
ter, and astonished my throat with
a quaff from the fountain of eternal
youth, aiiaa the artesian well, 1 pro
ceeded to Chan’s drug store. As I
entered the abode of assaloetida and
chill medicine, he was engaged lu
compounding a prescription. He
glanced at my card, laid the half
filled prescription aside, and the first
thing I knew I was bowling over the
wido streets of Albany behind his
fastest nag, Bnckskin.
He showed me tbe town. When
Isay that I mean it. I saw the town
to melons alone. Irish potatoes grow
here as if the soil was made for them.
Tho land is such that theyoung roots
scamper underneath as in play, and
tho tubers grow and expand us much
as they please. There is no peut-up
Utica about them, no hard clay sub
soil or lumps of hard dirt to retard
their progress, and they readily yield
from thirty! to seventy barrels to
the acre. New potatoes sell in
Chicago duriug the month of
March for seven and eight dollars
per barrel; in April for (6 and (7;
in Hay for|4 50 and $6; in- June fot
$4, and it is not uutil August that
home growers supply the market.
Chicago pays $1 50 per quart for
strawberries in February and as
late as Angust pays 15 cents. Think
of tomatoes at $2 per dozen, and yet
this country can produce thousands
of them as early as February. Bight
here in town in the pet patches,
here there is no ambition to get
Dr. Evans’ Lectars.
As stated in yesterday morning’a
paper, a fair lecture audience greeted
the Rev. Dr. Evans in the Methodist
church on Monday night. There was
considerable curiosity felt to know
what he proposed to do with the
negro. He introduced himself as the
appointee of the General Conference
of tbe H. E. Church South, for col
lecting money for the foundation and
support of a school for colored teach
ers and preachers. Ho traced the hit-
tory of the relations of his church
with the negro, and acconntcd for the
apparent neglect of his interest tor tho
years since the war. The great need
of the negro was moral, intelligent
and reliable preachers and teachers.
This they did uot have, and it waa the
earlyIruckj are green peas'and other du, I of the church and country to
vegetables equally as far advanced.
The Central and Brnnswick and
Albany railroads, recognizing the
Almosx a Serious Accident.
Mr. J. G. Sputswood, Albany’s clever
and t fficient Assj-tant Postmaster,
happened t - an arcident lari Saturday
night which came very near depriving
this community and the general gov
ernment of the services of evaluable
official. Soon after the close of office
hours, shortly after dark, and while
the rain wav at its be:.t, he started for
home, on the out.kiri* of tbe city. In
stead of going the direct route, be
made a long detour hy way of the
colored Methodist church on the
rue de Whitesville, to get some cab
bage plants from Peter Manigo, to set
out on the morrow. Ju*t beyond the
church, on State street, i* a deep
ditch nr drain leading to the river,
twelve or fifteen feet deep, a portion
of which has been sewered aud cover
ed over, Lut a long section of which is
still open and exposed. It so hap
pened that the guttering had become
choked, nnd the ditch uearly tup full
of water. Hie night was dark, and
Mr Spotswood, not over well acquaint
ed with that pari of town, after round
ing tbe corner at the chnrch, man
aged to walk plump into the ditch and
some twelve feet of rain water. HU
first idem when he rose to the surface
was, that he had walked into the river,
and he began to tread water and yell
lustily for help. Unfortunately the
rain was falling in torrents, and no
house in the immediate vicinity, and
he continued to tread water and yell
and make ineffectual grasps at the
steep sidea of the ditch for a consider
able time without attracting attention.
HU cries at length, daring a short ces
sation of the storm, reached the ears
of several colored occupants of tbe
nearest house, who hastened out to his
assistance, and after a short delay in
getting a light, ropes, etc., which
seemed an age to the exhausted Spots
wood, succeeded in windlassing him
out of his perilous position, the wet
test and worst scared assisUnt post
master in the employ of the govern
ment.
When we first heard the particulars
of the above accident, which happened
to our worthy townsman, Mr. Spots-
wood, on tho evening of the very day
in which two of the News akd Ad
vertiser staff had been elected on the
Street Committee and assigned to
duty m that part of town, wo thought
we could recall something sinUter
and even malicious in the looks of
that committeeman who brought us
the notification. Suppose a faithful
and conscientons sense of duty, which
we promised never to shirk or evade
under any circumstances, had carried
us down tbe Avenue Whitesville that
night on a tour of observation! No
two of Albany’s citizens probably are
less acquainted with the many varions
man-traps and pitfalls that, we have
been since informed, abound in that-
dangerous locality. We’ll keep an
eye on that committeeman in the fu
ture.

Why?
Because the artesian water beats all
the waters for a certain line of ail
ments. Now mind yon, I don’t take
Cban Jones' statement for this, nor
the enthusiastic Albanians: I take
the evidence from strangers who
came here only a short time ago with
a burning hatred for life. For years
they have Buffered, and intensity or
that suffering allows no words to
describe. Capt. Turpin, a wealthy
planter and saw mill man of Mitchell
connty, told me that two-weeks ago
he was suffering from a disease ol
the bladder that had caused him
agony for a number of years. To
day he is a well man. Another gen
tleman. a Mr. Elliot,come here a few
weeks ago with inflamation of the
bl dder. To day he is a well man.
They drank of the water, aud to’it
alone is due tieir cure. I was shown
a number of letters from different
people who came here, drank the
water and returned home cur d, aud
who have waited in vain for a return
of the trouble.
Satisfied beyond the shadow of a
doubt that the water was all that was
claimed for it, i. e. a cure for dys
pepsia, catarrh or inflamation of the
bladder and kidred diseases, wo vis
ited the well that was doing so much
toward sweetening and lengthening
life. Bight in the centre of the main
street, flowing from a pretty foun
tain comes the water, emptying into
a casf-iron basin. On one of the cor-
nersot the street—tbe fountain is in
the centre of an intersection of two
streets—the water flows from a pipe
or a hydrant, and as we passed there
were men, women and children with
backets, pitchers and pails, filling
them to be carried home.
'Although Albany has three wells,
only one, that of which I have just
written, possesses curative powers,
thongh the others are highly impreg
nated with iron. The well is over
six hundred feet deep and cost tbe
city over $3,000. The piping passed
through a vein or strata of sulphur,
and this with other properties form
tbe great cures. They # tell me that
on a damp morning, when the atmos
phere is heavy, the fumes ot sulphur
are strong, and a stranger in the
vicinity of the well would infer that
some ancient eggs had been braised
ia the neighborhood.
Tito water is attracting people
here from every section. To-night
as I write tho register of the Barnes
House shows as many arrivals as
Brown’s Hotel, and on looking over
me back pages I find that this is not
an exceptional day. Indeed, the in
flux of straugers has been so great
that a company of the Dougherty
county monietfmen—Messrs. Hobbs,
Davis and Greenfield—have pur
chased the Towns House, a new two-
story hotel, aud property adjacent,
and will build a four-story brick
hotel, capable of entertaining a hun
dred families. These men own a
brick yard also, and the brick for the
new hotel are being burnt. They
will have a house constructed on the
most modern principles, with every

feature of comfort,
they will have an artesian well and
miniature fountain, something after
tho order of the fountain in the Kim-
■jall House, Atlanta, but more elab
orate. They will have the hotel
ready by the first of January, 1884,
and (sooner.
It will be seen that Southwest Geor
gia is about to take the laurels away
from Florida as an asylum for inva
lids and tbe home for the emigrant
If the Northern or the Western man
will take his eyes from the blinding
giare of Florida’s orange colored
headlight and think for a moment he
will not hesitate to change his ticket
from the laud of flowers to Ameri-
cus or Albany or some other point
in this section. The emigrant to
Florida sets ont his orange grove and
then shakes with the chills, drinks
brackish water, aggravates his mala
dy if he is so nnfertnnate, and wishes
for the four years to roll around.
The emigrant to Albany finds sand:
hills and chocolate land, watermelons

sprout for the other, and dividends

I visited the track farm of one
Northern settler to-day. He runs a
five acre lot, and he makes over two
thousand dollars a year on it. True,
he has an acre or two in frail, but
while you are waiting two or three
or four years for your Band pears to
produce, yon are making your track
pay handsomely.

the purpose of loading cars with
melons and truck. They go ont of
Albany by two routes—by Macon
over the Central and by Eufanta
over the Louisville and Nashville.
The transportation is quickJtnJ there
is no danger of decay.
The people—the natives—have
gone right into this new business,
having seen the experiment well and
successfully tried in Brooks and
Lowndes counties, bat they invite
settlers. Tbe county is ample in size,
plenty of elbow room, and now that
cotton is to be stricken off the list of
products, every encouragement will
be given those who want to make
every ircb of the soil rejoice in fruit
and vegetation.'
There is one farmer about
here who will stick to cotton. Y’ousil
know of him, Mr. Pritnns Jones, the
great first bale man. Ho looks over
his fence at the dappled hills ot
greeu and is glad that old Dough
erty is tickling thej’tastcs of the
Western .people, but"he,,freezes to
the bursting boll and gets ihe first
bale to market all the same. Ue
has a burning ambition to beat
Texas, and if nothing prevents he
will get the first bple ahead ot her.
Last year his engine broke down
while ginning and the Lone Star
come in about aneck in advance.
Albany, as you may imagine, wears
a smile. And she has just cause to
smooth out the wrinkles and replace
them with dimples. With a pro
gressive town council, a young
Mayor, plenty of water flowing
under her wide and level streets, a
good fire department, a prospect of
the river obstructions being remov
ed, a new hotel, plenty of railroad
facilities, and on top of this the new,
industrious tickling of all the land—
indeed she ought to be happy.
Chan Jones is a city as well as an
individual father, and he says lie is
determined that Albany shall be a
city. The couucil does some fine
work in the way of improvement,
aud some of their wavs could be usee
by larger cities with profit Year
after year there is an appropriation
for shade trees and cisterns. At the
intersection of nearly every street I
found a cistern; and this is a wise
provision. So, many blackjack and
■rateroak trees are set out and boxed,
and these give the streets a fine ap
pearance andjadtl'.’to the comfort In
summer.
RANDOM NOTES.
Albany should feci proud of its
daily newspaper, the News and Ad
vertiser. The town is the small
est in the world that has a daily, but
Editor McIntosh bus clearly demon
strated to the people that they can’i
do without a morning paper and
they in turn give him a good patron
age. Through the medium of (lie
Niws and Advertiser the world
lias been made acquainted, with the
aid of Chan Jones in onr paper,
with the wonderful curative powers
of the artesian water and the diversi
fied productiveness of Dougherty’s
soil. Mr. McIntosh has gone further.
Raised in this section, he knows
whereof he speaks, and he lias done
giant work for all the catinlry
around ncre. He is in constant re
ceipt of letters from people at the
North and West, and even as far as
Boston, and these he either answers
by letter or sends copies or his paper
giving all desired information. A
man and paper so thoroughly in love
with and working so hard for bis
county deserves a most liberal pat
ronage.
Albany needs a hotel, simply be
cause her present hosteiries are in
sufficient to entertain the people who
come here. The Baines House, Ihe
mention of whicit brings np memo
ries of one of the most jovial, genial
and old-fashioned of landlords, but
whose licnrty grasp of welcome lives
only in memory, Is uow under, the
management of (Cruse Barues, upon
whose broad shoulders his father’s
mantle has worthily fallen. I also
miss another face—that of Miss
Ella. Thousands of travelers remem
ber her _as the handsome*glady who
presided with such grace in the din
ing room, the was Ihe sunbeam of
the house, but a Savannah gentle
man won her heart, and she now
lives in the Forest City.
The familiar signs of Singleton,
Hunt & Co. and Lamar, Rankin &
Lamar arc seen here, and there is a
rumor to the effect that J. IV. Rice
& Co. will soon open a branch house
here—Was gratified to learn that
these Macon ventures were complete
successes and were doing a good
trade. Mr. Key, who manages Si-t-
g-leton. Hunt & Co.’s business, is-
really in love with Albany, and talks
artesian water and track fanning
with as mnch enthusiasm as a na
tive.
The oldest ht-use in Albany is still
standing. It was in the long, long
ago, a hotel, and was known as the
Tift House; and that was when Ihe
Flint river was navigable. The Al
bany people will not tear it down.
sandy, and then rich, dark soil again,;
and so on.
Tho demaud for early vegetables
from the North and West has aroused
tbe people down here, and they ate
crazed on the subject of track farm
ing. Everybody with a patch of
land has soaked it in potato slips, cu
cumber snd tomato seed. One man
has planted one hundred acres in
watermelons, and has invested $1,200
in the enterprise, his fertilizers coat
ing him $600 alone.
He will make money. The average
yield of an acre batiug the calcula
tion on what was done last year, is
1,000 to 1,500 melons. An average
car load is 1,000 melons, and freight
on tbe same to Chicago is about $100.
The price last season in Chicago
from seventy-five cents to fifty cents,
and never went below twenty cents.
Just figure np 100,000 melons at an
average of thirty-five cents and see
what tbe producer makes.
How does that go with cotton ?
Then look at the trouble of culti
vation. Yon lay off your land in ten
foot squares and all tbe cultivation
is done with the plow—no chopping;
no picking of a handful at a time, no
ginning, no packing, and no liability
of heing destroyed by fire. The
melon, you know,'is hardy and loves
the sail. Il draws moisture from the
earth when all else is parching up.
- As to the qual'ty of the melon
grown in this >-ection, it is far supe
rior to the Richmond county.. The
first seed of the Rattlesnake was
taken to the sandy soil of Brooks and
Lowndes and Dougherty, anu so im-
jroved upon that in a year or so

I found Senator Colquitt here. He
sold his farm lo Walter Gordon,
and came down for the purpose of
settling up the business. He thinks
well of tile garden truck enterprise,
and thinks it will give Southwest
Georgia a prominence in the com
mercial world it could never enjoy
by producing cotton uione.
The McAfee House at Smithville,
under Dcidrick’s management, is an
important punctuation point for pas
sengers along the Southwestern rail
road to stop at -tnd panse twenty
minutes for dinner. He furnishes
an excellent quality of wine free.
Major Shellnian and the civil en
gineer of the Central tailroad came
down yesterday and stopped at
Smithville, where more side tracks
aretobeiaid. This is made neces
sary by tbe melon boom.
Mr. H. H. Collier, wbo has recent
ly been appointed to a position in
the Central railroad office at Macon,
is in Albany, spending a few days
with his friends-before settling down
to work.
The many friends of Conductor
Tom Welch will he glad to learn
that he is ttiii popular among those
who travel between Smithville and
Albany. Everybody likes him.
The people of Albany are so whole-
souled and the artesian water such a
big thing, that I could spend a month
of real genuine happiness here.

not education that made him idle and

freedom meant “living without work,”
andhenccthey shirked it; and had to re -
sort to crime for a support. Thh was
accounted for by showing that the re
straint of slavery being taken away,
and no proper parental sense of re
sponsibility having been formed in the
negro character, the rising generation
grew up wild and lawless. Then the
school teachers and preachers, espec

that it was not wrong to steal tram the
whites. To correct these evils, tho

Xeies und Advertiser:
As it was after dark when the train

however, which has happened since
my arrival, may be of painful interest
to some of your readers about Albany.

of Macon, of the welt known firm of
English & Huguenin, and known to
many of your citizens—he married

No medicine has ever been known
in the South so eflectual in the cure of
all those diseases arising from an im
pure condition of tbe blood as Rosa-
dalis, the Great Southern Remedy for
tlie cure of Scrofula, White Swellings,
Rheumatism, Pimples, Blotches, Ernp
lions, Venereal Sores and Diseases,
Consumption, Goitre, Boils. Cancers,
and all kindred diseases. Rosadalis
purifies tbe system, brings color to the
cheeks and restores the sufferer to a
normal condition of health and vigor.
It is asserted that the ordinary cos
metics used by ladies are productive
of great mischief. We believe this is
so, and that a better means of securing
a beautiful complexion is to use some
good blood medicine like Rokadalts,
the Great Southern Remedy, which
clauses the blood and gives permanent
beauty to the skin.

That’s a common expres

Whatever the cause, don’t
