Albany's prospects are. attracting
attention from every quarter; distant
cities watch with interest the animated
aspect of business and enterprise.
Capitalists are writing to oar promi
nent citizens with proposals for public
improvements. One proposition con
templates waterworks and electric
lights. Will onr people not accord to
capital seeking investment liberal
terms and fall encouragement? A
wealthy gentleman who, for twenty-
five years has been in search of summer
sunbeams In the semi-tropical Sooth,
and whose wanderings hail led him
into every winter resort In California
and the South, expressed himself last
April as having found the perfection
of a winter climate In Albany. He
expressed himself so much delighted
with the climate, and so pleased with
Albany and her people that he would,
under certain conditions, be widlng
to erect a $130,000 hotel here for the
accommodation of winter visitors. Al
bany’s future Is assured.
Hunt to Erect a New Building.
The church buildings of Albany are
le*s a credit to her enterprise than
|>erliaps any other public feature of this
growing city. They were all built
years ago in tile iufancy ot the com
munity, which has outgrown them all.
The Methodist congregation are
moving in the direction of inaugurat
ing plans for a new house of worship.
The prominent members of the church
have under advisement the project, and
we confidently look for rapid progress
toward the commendable enterprise.
Other congregations should bestir
themselves in this direction and ma
ture plans for building houses of wor
ship commensurate with their necessi
ties and tire city’s size and import
ance. There is never a revival meet
ing, that awakens general interest in
the public, but that the building in
which it is held overflows.
Judge Mull Looking Well mud Im

Appreciating the deep concern with
which the recent illness of Judge Sam
Hall was regarded by bis many friends
in this city, and knowing the interest
they have manifested In Ids conva
lescence, we publish below a cheering
report front the Atlanta Journal:
“Advices from Mt. Airy state that
Judge Samuel Hall, of the Supreme
Court, Is looking quite well and im
proving steadily, and that Ids conva
lescence has had no interruption, a re
cent published report to the contrary
notwithstanding. His late illness was
not paralysis, as stated in the news
papers at the outset, but it seems was
nervous prostration, attributed to
over work <luring the hot wave, at the
conclusion of protracted and continu
ous lalKirs on the bench, extending
over a period of about eight months
preceding. Judge Hail, although an
indefatigable student and worker, be
ing found at his office nearly every
morning during term time at 5 or G
o’clock, and often working until late
at night, has born up hitherto without
interruption under the trying demands
of his position. His naturally strong
constitution and previous good health
and regularity of habits have enabled
him to recuperate rapidly; and it is
expected that he will be prepared to
resume work at the coming session of
court with renewed health and vigor.

Messrs. Woodward A Stillman, of New

first bale of cotton had arrived, and

Swimming is a very graceful and
useful accomplishment, and every fa
ther should devote sufficient time to
teach his boy the art. Albany
boys usually are fine swimmers, hav
ing the opportunity of bathing in one
of the finest streams In Georgia. It Is
nothing unusual for an Albany chap
to.swim a distance, without rest, that
would have carried him across the
Mississippi. They are as near am
phibious as boys ever get to be, and
their skill in buffettiug the waves lias
won admiration In whatever waters It
has been their joy to wonton with the
breakers. Byron never loved the
ocean or braved its dangers with more
joy than some of these inland water
animals, though he won greater fame
in Ids great feat of swimming the Hel
lespont.

Am Honest
The News and Advertises unwit
tingly penetrated a hoax, last
week, for which ft desires to make
amends thb morning. Some one at
Baconton sent us through the mail a
“batch” of well-written personal and
news items. At the bottom of the last
page was thb note:
Mr. Editor. It is aot often I oee anything
from onr little town la yoar moot vataalde
poper. lloidng rou will giro this spoeo la
yoar col anas, Yoaro truly, j g.H.
At first we started to throw the com
municated in the waste basket, as we
ought to have done, because we didn’t
know who “J. E. H.” was, and the
full name of the writer was not given.
But the items appeared to be genuine;
pleasant mention, including a mar
riage,was made of several well-known,
good people about Baconton, and we
concluded, upon second thought, that
the failure of the writer to send
hb full name or make himself or her
self known to the editor was due to an
oversight so common with many who
semi screeds to the newspapers. No
liartu was said of anybody, and the
items appeared to be genuine. With
out suspecting that a hoax was being
perpetrated, the communication was
published.

now we have Mr. Bacon’s first cater
pillar. It b now on exhibition in a
little quinine bottle iu the News and
Advertiser office, with three days’s
rations of cotton leaves around it. The
appearance of tlie first caterpillar
aboat the middle <4 July shook! not
be viewed with alarm, especially when
it b remembered that it came from
Merry Bacon’s farm and that be is the
early bird that invariably catches the
rm. Our advices from him are
that there are no Indications, as yet,
of the appearance of the caterpillars in
anything like pestilential form or
numbers.. He probably had to rise
early aud search diligently to fiud tills
one, but, being jealous of hb reputa
tion as the first caterpillar man, and
stimulated by the appearance of Pri
mus’s first bale, he was determined to
have It.
Mstmtlsf Accident.
Mrs. C. H. Barnes, of Worth coun

on Tuesday, which resulted in the
breaking of her arm and the death of
her two months old babe. She was
riding in a jersey wagon seated in a
chair, with the babe in her arms, when
tlie wheels of the wagon snddenly
suuk lu a deep rut, turning the chair
over and precipitating her to the
ground. In trying to shield the babe
•lie had her arm crushed by the fall
which threw her entire weight ou the
little thing with fatal effect.
Mrs. Barnes has friends iu thb place
to whom the sad news will carry sor

A visit to the Fair Grounds by one
of the editors of tlie News and Ad

great trenches tor barbecuing had been
cut in the place where the picnics are
usually held. Why that spot should
have been especially selected and mar
red In that way b, perhaps, past find-
out, but it seems Inconceivable that
men should have spoiled a pretty play
ground when lully fifty other acres
equally suitable for the purposes lay
all aronnd them. It b a piece of vau-
dalbm resulting from thoughtlessness,
yet nevertheless of great lujury to the
most beautifal grounds within a radius
of many miles from Albany.
The City Council should send the
street force out and have the damage
repaired at once, and take measures to
prevent a repetition of the damage.

THE KAUFMAN LUMBER OO. OF POULAN,

in tlie front rauk as liaviug contrib

and future promise of tlds section.
This company has Invested $75,000 in
apbnt,penectinits adaptability to the
purjKises designed, which attests the
confidence it lias In the future of tlie
rapidly growing business In lumber
aud timber between the South and
other sections of the country. Thb
plant and enterprise are the fruit ot
tlie foresight aud ability of Mr. Geo.
F. Montgomery, formerly of Indiana,
whose ken discovered the advantages of
Georgia forests as a field for the re
rues of Northern and Western
builders.
Tlie rapid denudation of the West
and North of their forests daily in
creased the necessity for oilier sources
of building material, and, four years
ago, Mr. Montgomery made a tour of
inspection through the South. After
a critical and judicious Investigation
into the advantages of every section,
he determined to locate Ids factories at
Poulan, on the line of the Brunswick
and Western railroad.
A News and Advertiser scribe,
who recently paid a pleasant visit to
the splendid mills and enjoyed the
benefit of Mr. Montgomery's courte
ous explanations of tlie many attrac
tive feature* of tlie valuable plant and
tlie interesting operations of the won-,
derful machines, asked him why be
bad located hb enterprise at Poulan;
to which he replied:
“The liberal policy of the manage
ment of the Brunswick and Western
railroad in extending every encour
agement, together with the facilities
for obtaining an inexhaustible supply
of the most superior pine lumber
found on the face of; the globe.’
Has the Georgia long-leaf yellow

porter.
Yes, sir; it has advantages over
the pines of any forests in America.
The famous giant trees oC California,
the soft and easily worked white pines
of Canada and Michigan have their
uses, but the Georgia yellow pine has
every advantage poss reset* by them
and many others. It b growing rap

A Wise Determination.
The News and Advertiser has
time and again called the attention of
our fanners to tlie fact that a large
sum of money anuually went to the
West from this section for mules. It
urged tlie well known -fact that these
animals could be raised here with all
ease and at less expense than they are
raised in Tennessee and Kentucky.
We can have a perennial pasture to
graze them, and other advantages
which Kentucky cannot claim.
Another advantage would be that,
being acclimated, there would be
lew liability to loss from diseases
incident to change of climate. It has
also been practically demonstrated that
the Georgia raised mule b hardier and
hence more serviceable, just as tlie
Georgia horse is tougher and more
durable than tlie Kentucky bred.
A fanner of Randolph county has
for years devoted attention to the
raising of mules, and has met with sig
nal success, having nine now in use
raised on lib own farm. They are
rated first-class, and are of floe size
and spirits.

The reports from growing cropeall
over tlie South concur In stating con
ditions that make a bright and cheer
ing prospect for the country. The
wind b out of the inflated booms of the
mineral districts, but they, too, shaie
in the great expectations of tarveit
time, lor upon the agricultural pros
perity of the land depends the success
of every Industry. All Industries are
the children of agriculture, and mother
earth nurses at her breast the uutner-
ous progeny.
Thb cheering Aspect encourages the
hope of a prosperous season to all bus
iness, and under the prospect new ani
mation b every where manifest. Cities
and towns that have lagged in the race
of competition seem to have taken a
new lease on life, and activity and
bouyaitcy of hope characterize* their
citizens.
There b no doubt but tliat tLe agri
cultural districts of tlie South have
groaned under debts, with wliieli an
unfortunate combination of ciicnm-
stances have couspired to bnrdeu the
farmer, but the recuperative ability of
this section b wonderful and iuiu.eas
urabie.
If tlie growing crop mature- as at
present it promises, and the prices
which the present couditioii justify ns
in expecting are realized, it will not
only relieve tlie planting iutere-t of its
embarrassments, but leave a surplus
for improvements and investment*.
There lias never been a cotton crop
made more cheaply. Labor b one of
tlie greatest Items of expense to a grow
ing crop, and uuder the favorable
conditions for easy cultivation, but
little extra labor has been necessitated.
Planters began tlie year with more
plantation supplies iu tlieir crib* and
meat-houses than for many previous
sons, and dire necessity has en
forced the exercise of rigid economy.
There was never, perhaps, a more
general disposition among farmers to
wards a judicious deversification of
crops, and as a consequence side crops
ore abundant and good. Cane, potatoes,
peas and other valuable farm products
have a greater acreage devoted to their
careful cultivation than ever in the
post-bellum history of thb section.
Be of good cheer, tlie best boom of
all is slowly maturing, and thb section
will once more be tlie cynosure of ail
