That Gainesville needs it, no one will deny. Thu trash, rubbish and filth needs to be gotten far out side the city limits, and the city will never be and heal thy as it should be until a system of sewers is put in. Cleanliness is next to Godliness, and Gainesville should be the cleanest; purest and healthiest city in C^brgia. The stench aris ing from decaying vegetation and impurities, is extremely unpleas ant and unhealthy, and the city should by all means adopt some method of getting rid of this dan gerous evil.* We believe a majority of .the citizens of Gainesville would-'he- glad to contribute liberally to a thing from which they would re ceive somuch benefit.

SHOULD BE A WARNING. The recent suicide of George Parrott jr., of Atlanta, should prove a warning to all youngmen, and old ones, too, to let specula tions alone. It is indeed a very dangerous practice, and thousands have been rained by foolishly en deavoring to make money by this method of gambling. It is an eyil' that should be shunned. Men go wild over the markets when once they get into it, and frequently when losses are piled up dn unfortunate specula tors they criminate themselves in order to obtain money that they may make one last effort to get back what they have put in. Failing m this, often it is, they seek to cover np their crime and hide, their shame an humiliation in the grave by ending their own lives.
