book alone is worth five times the price
of the paper, and has already saved
many a purchase fifty times its cost,
Next year The Home Journal
make a specialty of choice miscellany,
local news, scientific and general infor
mation, domestic economy, farm matters
and true politics.
The Home Journal is now about to
enter its ninth volume, and lies been
under its present management six years
and two months. We must thank our
patrons for past favors, and assure them
that if they will pay in advance in the
future we will be enabled to greatly im

Nxw Yeaus Calls.—Lust night the
young men of Perry made their New
Years Calls in style. They had a card
coach and four mules,' drive rs guard and
footman. Each mule had a bell on.
and the coach was kept quite busy car
rying the numerous couples of c l crs
from cno house lo another.
Oun Bools and Shoes must be closed
out at cost, and no mistake.

Volume IX.—With this number be-
gius volume nine of The Home Jour
ral, and ive believe that 1879 finds us
with more friends * and fewer enemies
than ever before. Wo propose th:s
this year to tax the fidelity of our pe
trous by asking them to pay in ad
vance, and if they will do so, we feel
.thafwe are in u condition to greatly
improve their county paper. 'Uhe
amount of each Mibscripiiou is small,
hiit the aggregate is worth lniviug.—
Who will fail, lift? .
Evert farmer and business man
should have a copy of our Legal Form
Book this full and winter. A few uior-
left at 50 cents each—worth five dollai.-

MSsT This week we have marked ovet
a hundred names off our mail book.—
Tlu'sc are of persons who are in arrears.
We want next week to make up our
subscription list for 1879. Do yon
waut The Home Journal-, aud is your
time out? If so, renew at . once. We
don’t waut any one to get our paper
who don’t waut it. We have been so
lenient, in the past that many seem to
forget that our terms are “cash in ad
vance.” We have lost nearly two thou
sand dollars in bad accounts in the lust
six years by not being more business
like.

The Penn Yan Mystkcp.—This is the

of the day. We are pleased to place it

dent it yri'l at once gain a very extend

We find a pleasant call Thursday from
Miss Ella Greene, of Cochran, general
.■gent of the Southern Home Magazine,
published by E. T. Byington & Co., of
that pi >cu. Miss G. is au intelligent,
noble young lady, and is untiring iu
the bard work of canvassing for sub
scribers and making an inepeudeufc l*v-
ing. We must say that there are in
.he world more heroines than heroes,
and .Toa-i of Are is not more worthy of
immortal finue than many mothers and
daughters of onr own day and cojmtry.
While the grandeur aud excitement of
battle might nerve a girl to scale the
nails of a fortress, it requires a far
greater heroism to battle daily with the
. aiiut foe adversity, where one has no
Inn'rels to win, and no cheers of com-
patriot hosts wlide mouuting the tem
ple of fame. We wish Miss Greene
and her cause abundant success, though
Sou them literary ventures have not
generally met with very liberal sup
port.

succumbed to the destroying element,
Iu the row stood thickly cro wded to
gether, the stores of M. J. Hatcher,
C. S. Johnson, H. W. Taylor, Tuck
Toomer, Mr. Davis and Slappey & Ha
fer. The fire originated in the store of
tbe latter gentlemen, aud, very proba
bly, was accidental. It was not discov
ered until the flames had overspread the
whole inside of the building, and bad
burst out here aud there on the outsid.e,
and while it is snpposed that it canght
fire from the inside, yet it is possible
that it was set on tire from without.—
All. however, believe it was the result of
accident.
The store m which it started is at the
west-.end of the row aud Providence fa
vored us with r gentle east wind, which
rendered the progressed the fire slow.—
This was greatly to our advantage; for,
while we cculd not hope to save one of
those six stores, yet it gave us time to
save a great deal of valuable property.
A very large crowd, both of whites and
blacks, were on the ground very quick
ly; and with a will went to work to savt
the goods, and succeeded iu getting cv_
erytlnng portable out of the stores ex
cept that of Slappey & Hafer. Their
•took was entirely consumed.
Too much praise cannot be bestowed
ou the colored people for the active
they displayed and tho valuable aid
they rendered ou this distressing occa
sion. They did all they could have
done if it had been their own propert-.
but,-unfortunately, tf ter the fire had
spent its fury, . some of them became
riotous fiorn the too freely imbibing of
whitky, and behaved very badly.
Siappey aud Hafer had insurance to tho
amount of §310!) aud estimate their
lose on slore ab nit §17J0 stock about
§4800 H. W. Taylor, C. S. Johnson
-»ud M. J. Hatcher were lusuied ou
stock*, respectfully $890.1000 §18,00.
They saved from the fire, as already
•stated, ail their goods, but these were
necessarily more or less dahiuged, and
their loss by stealage cannot be estima
ted.
Mr. Davis had uo insurance, but his
loss is light. I have said that all tin-
goods except Slappay and Hafei we: e
tdkeu out of the stores; but I hud for
gotten that Tucker Toomer, a colored
man who bad a small stock of tobacco,
candy, peanuts etc, lias his good', aud
$30 in money burned. I do not know
liis loss.
Mr. W. H. Felton owned four of tin-
buildings, ifad ou these had $1,250 in
surance only. Loss about §3000.
Air. Johuson had $500 ou his store,
and E. B. Baldwin who owned the oth
er had S509 iusuriynce.
Dr. E. H. Rawls aud J. A .ElwarJs
had their office consumed, but saved all
their boocs and other properly.
Several of mi- merchants will be out
of business for a time, but it is thought,
a handsome block of brick buildings
wdl speedily rise up on the ruins of
the oldwooden ones, and all of them be
again supplied with rooms better adapt
ed to their bussiucss mid viis-ly inoie
secure 'from the ravages of fire—so
mote it be.

AIcuder in Crawford.—Mr. A. H.
Murchtnson, of near Hickory Grove,
Crawford County, was found dead in
the road the other day, stabbed in sev
enteen places. Green Thurman, a iveiL
to do negro, was found in his house
not far off shot in the shoulder. Au
inquest beiug held, Green Thurman
and his sons Isams and Young Green
aud Joel alias Louis "Hall were charged
with the crime aud committed tben-
for. The theory is that a difficulty
sprang up" between Mr. Mrchinson au.d

his sons stabbed Mr. M. to death.

Seed Cremation?—A large crowd
gathered about nightfall last night, in
front of the store of Messrs, Hunt
Rankin & Lamar, where an immense
bonfire of old garden seed illuminated
the gloom and darknes of the dripping
evening. Many of these would doubt
less have germinated, bat the proprie
tors were resolved that their seed de
partment should be above suspicion,
and hence their wholesale cremation

Too often housekeepers lose an entire
season by depending upen spurious
seeds for their early vegetables. And
nothing is certainly more provoking.
The boys enjoyed the bonfire, and it
was astonishing how brightly aud
fiercely the seeds burned.
