The Sabbath School Celebration.
’Twos a lovely day with clouded sky,
Many schools with banners high
To music marched, on Salem’s hill, [drill.
’the right, not the ill, was the object o£ their
Under nn harbor of pine, each one had their
say
With song and music they Consumed the <Uy.
The audience was large, attention bad,
The majority were ugly, tow were sad.
Under the trees, above the dead, dinner was
, ( spread,
, 0 the meals, the sweets, the staple bread,
All were had without price, and without money,
From our laud that flows with milk and
honey.
Very good were the exercises of all the schools,
Calculated to teach all, except the fools.
Love to God and self, was their highest aim,
• Guard against temptation and action they
proclaim.
Work while ’tia day, and don’t forget to pray,
That night will come, when you will have
naught to say.
Bay to the actor on tlio stage of life,
Guard yourself, yourchildreo and your wife.
Between command and action, know you are
right,
For bad actions and its consequences, awful is
the s'ght,
Beautiful was the banner of Cottage Rose,
Its school, though small, with teacher, com¬
posed
The loveliest of all. The children I call,
Forbid them not, they are never too small.
That school and banner represent human strife
In all the fazes ot Cottage Life.
Its seed time with rosy spring,
The summer, its reapers in harvest sing.
Its gatheriDgAutumu and wintry sigh,
Its life, its death, its weeping eyes,
bu you black clou 1, ilsl golden letters shifts,
“All of thine are mine, and mine are thine,”
Obey me through all your nights and all your
days,
Then beho'.d me, I am with you always.

“Try Ayer’s Pills”
For Rheumatism, Neuralgia, and Gout.
Stephen Lansing, of Yonkers, N. Y.,
saya: “ Recommended as a cure for
chronic Costiveness, Ayer’s Pills have
relieved me from that trouble and also
from Gout. If every victim ot this dis¬
ease would heed only three words of
mine, I could banish Gout from the land.
These words would be —‘Try Ayer’s
Pills.’’»
“By the use of Ayer’s Fills alone, I
cured myself permanently of rheuma¬
tism whjch had troubled me several
months. These Pills are at once harmless
and effectual, and, I believe, would
prove a specific in ail cases of incipient
Rheumatism*
No medicine could have served me in
better stead.” —C. C. Rock, Corner,
Avoyelles Parish, La.
C. F. Hopkins, Nevada City, writes :
11 1 have used Ayer’s Pills lor sixteen
years, and I think they are the host Pills
m the world. AVe keep a box of them
in the house all the time. They have
cured me of sick headache and neuralgia.
Since taking Ayer’s Pills, I have been
dree from these complaints.”
“ I have derived great benefit from
Ayer’s Pills. with Five rheumatism years ago I was
taken so ill that I was
unable to do any work. I took three
boxes of Ayer’s Pills and was entirely
Cured. Since that time I am never
■without a box of thesepill3.” — Peter

Husbands.
One of the great topics of conversation at
a woman’s sewing circle was about hus¬
bands— what they should do if so and so
should befall them. A very interesting
fright and attractive member of the society
was asked what she would do if her husband
should die and leave her all his wealth.
Without a moment hesitation her reply was
1 should try and get another of the same
kihd That is what they say about Skiff
the Jeweler’s diamond spectacles if lost or
broken will try and get another pair the
same kind.
Mrs. Elder Dead.
It is with pain that we chronicle the
death of Mrs. W J. E’der, who died at her
borne about six miles from this place on Tues¬
day evening last. She had been lingering
between life and death for several days and
her death was not wholly unexpected. She
leaves a sorrowing husband, several chil¬
dren and a host of friends >o mourn her sad
departure. Mr. Elder and family have the
heart felt sympathy of the entire community.
Only last week death claimed his oldest
daughter and now the grim monster again
visits the bereaved household and claims his
faithful wife and loving mother.
THE CELEBRATION.
It was tlio good fortune ofyc ed. to attend
the Sunday school celebration in Salem on
Thursday last. In ^atiiinsville company with Dr. R. L.
Armistead we left at 7 o'clock
and after a pleasant drive of two hours
through the finest section of country the sun
ever shone upon wo airived at the historic
old town of Salem, where (ho celebration
was to be held. We found a large crowd
gathered and the exercises school ofthe day open¬
ed with Salem Sunday on ihe stand.
Space forbids us going into details and giv¬
ing the full programme of the day, but we
will say that we never heard finer singing
or bolter speeches and essays on any like oc¬
casion. There wore several Sunday schools
from Morgan, Walton, Oglethorpe and
Green counties and each one in line with
banners flying presented a gallant army of
brave young hearts enlisted on the side of
right, against the wrong. Each school con¬
tributed a speech, each essay and song to the oc¬
casion and their participant did credit to
tlieinaelves and school.
About ono o’clock dinner was announoed
and life immense crowd repaired to a large
table that h id been erected b,y the Celebra¬
tion committee ami a sump-nous dinner was
spread. Y'c e l enjoyed this part of the pro¬
gramme to his fullest oxtont. After dinner
the crowd returned to the largo harber and
tho exercises were resumed. A dark roll¬
ing cloud in the went threatened to disperse
the crowd at nvo o'clock, but following the
Salem, winding giving Appahtchee just, river enough it pasted nronod
us vain to lay the
duet and make the evening pleasant. The
exeroises in tho afternoon were similar to
llioso iu the morning and were highly en¬
joyed by the crowd. The success of this
grand occasion is due to tho ablu manage¬
ment of Messrs. Palmer, O’Dillon, Hosier
and MoRou, assisted by the u.Airing oflurts
of tho people of Salem and vicinity. About
•1 o’oiook the crowd began to disperse and
wend their way homeward. \V« hope that
great good will result from this day's work.
To the different Sunday schools assembled
ill Salem #n that day w« will say -God be
with you till we meet again.”

THE SUPERIOR COURT AND
THE COUNTY COURT.
FACTS AND FIGT'RFS OBTAINED FROM TUS
RECORDS.
The civil and criminal dockets ef the
Superior Court of Oconee county, ’the shows,
that from the year 1SS0 up to July
term IS'-;*, a period of nine nsi one halt
years, there has been entered ca sa: 1 duck¬
ets, one hundred and fifty-three .’rimtn.d
cases, and one hundred and nin-:;-Uc:
civil cases, making in si! three hundred ar t
fifty-one cases, several of which are v ;
undisposed of Theexpers s of ibis court
during this period of time has been twelve
hundred and fifty dodars annually, or
s „ mc f eleven thousand eight hundred and
seventy-five dollars, as appears from
records of the Treasurer, ’and this expense
does not include jail fees.) All ot these
expenses has been paid by direct taxation.
The Couaiy Court for the same period of
time, nine and one-half years, has on its
dockets disposed of four hundred and thirtv
four'criminal cases an J four hundred 3
a inety five civil cases. AU of ;he
and two hundred and thirty four of the
civil eases, makitig six hundred and
eight cases, would have gene to the Super! r
Court and tried there if it had not teen for
the County (’curt. During this period of
time the County Court has collected v.d
paid into the c'oumy treasury fines and for
feitures the sutu of six thousand nine ■■un
dred and twenty-four dollars and forty
cen!i , vrhlch has mote lhac paid the ex.
per.'-os of the court,
Now what do we find, this that the
Couaiy Court has without any extense
the county relieved the Superior Court of
hundred and sixty eight cases.
Suppose there had been no County Court,
