Mr. Woodis who was hurt at the
Fair Grounds last Tuesday, from
the kick of a horse, is able to come
up town, but has to walk with
crutches.
We were pleased to see in our
town, on Friday last, brother
Waterman, of the Athens Banner.
Mr, Waterman is not only .one but of
the best of newspapermen, a
clever gentleman.
The fourth quarterly meeting for
the Watkinsville circuit will be
held at Rays church, on Thursday,
the 21st inst. Let the official mem¬
bers see to it, that there may be a
good attendance, especially the
stewards with good collections.
Col. Bob Miller says the fastest
t’me made on the the track after the
Fair, was made by a young man
who owns a gray hors°. Boh de¬
clares that he made a half mile in
2:10—that is, two seconds, and ten
minutes. This is fast traveling,
“ ’Rah, for Bob!”
Mr. H. G, Hardigree, one of Oco¬
nee that county’s model farmers, informs
qs he has made good crops of
corn, pumpkins, potatoes, &c., out
side of small grain. He says he
will make six bales of cotton to the
hand, or twelve bales to the mule.
This is what we would call a good
crop, who can beat it ?
Ti It h . with . . extreme regret that
we are compelled to announce the
failure of the Daily Advance to
make its appearance. Little Ned,

Fair Notes.
The Fair opened last Tuesday.
The departments were not as full
as the we expected, owing, no doubt,
to unusual amount of sickness.
The grounds were well attended

man,” with flags of every nation,
fluttering to the breezes attracted
quite a crowd, and “Let ’er roll” car¬
ried away many of the nickels.
The racing was splendid, so say
those who were in attendance reg
urlarly.
Cousin Annie Maria Barnes was
on hand, and as usual canvassing
for the “Acanthus.” We learn that
she succeeded in capturing a good
l'st of subscribers. “ ’Rah, for cous¬
in Annie.”
Uncle Nath Cook saw a hog of
Mr. Marshall s which he says would
weigh a ton—more or less.
George Davis’ Cornet band was
on hand and George Davis and
Ned Sapp made things lively.
Messrs. Speer and Bell had a po¬
litical tilt at the Fair Grounds on
last FridaRather a bad place for
politics, we think.
The Fair was a grand success.
Visitors from nearly section of
the State were in attendance.
