THE CONYERS WEEKLY
CONYERS, GA,, APRIL 13 , 1883 ,
NOTICE.
From this date ad Ordinary’s ad^
vertisements will be inserted iu the
Cox ye us Weekly a public gazette
published in Rockdale County, Ga.,
and this is to give notice that this pa¬
per is now my legal advertising medi
urn. O. SEAMANS,
April, 1SS3, Ordinary.
MAC DANIELL
WALTON’S SON OUR NOBLE
GOVERNOR.
lid-con <1 (fedted and the au¬
thor of th« Hallockletters
seat back 1o the Senate
After three days hard work the
convention has at last nominated the
Hon. Henry D. McDaniel], of Wal¬
ton county, for Governor, As no
nomination could be made by the en¬
tire body a conference committee
was appointed composed of G Bacon,
6 Boynton, 4 McDaniell and 2 Cook
men, which reported last night in fa«
vor ot MeDanull —the report being
received by the house and the gens
tlemau unanimously nominated,
Col. C. A. Niies is a most excel¬
lent correspondent.
The Constitution as a constructor j
oi tables is simply immense 1 !
Republicanism still holds a big
hand iu Georgia. Watch the ras¬
cals.
Just as the Constitution said—no
just as the Macon Telegraph said—
Bacon went iu ahead.
Fresident Arthur is in Floiida on
a gamboling tour, with Jay Gould
backing him, Cliet is a good uu.
It the gubernatorial conventions of
Georgia would .-avel around it would
knock the show business in the head.
The day has about dawned when
the Constitution, Joe Brown and
Colquitt cannot dictate the people of
Georgia.
We say three cheers for the Mas
con Telegraph ! Long may she live
to fight corruption and battle for lion
cst Democracy.
— ■ ■■ ........- - ■ a n On» «
The Macon Telegraph is now the
boss table erector ot this grand old
commonwealth, Tho Constitution
will please take a rear seat.
The people of Georgia should turn
their attention to the raising more
asses for the farm and not so many
for gubernatorial conventions.
Coi. Livingston, of Newton, made
some very fine talks iu the late con
vention. Tin CoL is a man ot con
siderable more power than looks.

If you want a copy of the Georgia
Major, the best humorous paper in
America, you ean got it and this pa¬
per 12 months for $200—the price
of the Major alone.
The great ring w ith headquarters
at Atlanta, Ga., can now see then
power broken. When such men as
Henry D. McDaniel gi ts in office
they can’t run the Executive depart¬
ment.
Geoigia Democracy is pretty lim¬
ber when she tries lo be. She never
fails to recognize a republican cat
when she hears its mew. Gen. Pee
Em Bee Young may be a very smart
man—we cant say positively.
We bad the profound pleasure of
meeting a large number of the “Geor
gia Press’ in Atlanta this week—
Gantt among the rest. Larry is par
exceh nce the most complete new?,
paper man in Georgia lie is carry¬
ing Lis Banner high.
It has been charged that one of the
«!^r’nSIJf!
He kept the convention locked
the sole purpose of keeping the ho- j
tels crowded wi.h delegates. We|
liaidly believe the charge H ue.
EmT.rns Weekly :-To-day being too
wet to plow several of my neighbors I
gathered in to see my fidi pond. Afer!
an unsuccessful effort to ratch some with j
a book and fine, we concluded to d.aw
off the pond. With shovels and spades 1 „!
we ^ Lad it down, and, , tom, , sur -1
prise, we found fish from four inches to
two feet in length and weighing from
four ounces to five pounds, and in quau -1
titles too numerous to mention. We \
killed enough for a fry one of which was i
a of female, iu Laving two compact four and a like half the ounces ggs j j
eggs roes •
of a shad. Suppose there were about j
fifty thousand taken from her. All who j
ate of the fish pronounced them extra j
good with a swiefrnss not common to
other fish. There has been much said !
about the Carp, and I will add that any
jierson who thinks they cannot be made
a cheap and profitable fpod are badly !
mistaken. Stine have had but little at
tention. W L Peek 1

(Communicated.)
Messrs Editor:—It is a matter antago
nistic to my feelings to tax the many
readers of your excellent paper in reply
to such articles as ‘ Earnest Worker’s”
friend has written. We have no desire
to lie in controversy with anybody, arid
to write of their faults, for we all have
them more or less, and I am tru'y sorry
that ‘ Earnest Worker ’ lias a friend, and
he, perhaps, lives out, of the District,
who belongs to that class of persons
spoken of in Holy Writ who have tlieir
part in the lake that burns with fire and
brim stone. May the Cord have mercy
on his sou)! He undoubtedly must be
the manufacturer of fhe article published
in the Weekly a few weeks ago which
asserted, as a wa ter of fact, that only six
names could he found in the jury box in
Loraine District- Now- if any person
dea’res to know the truth the Clerk of
the court will inform the better. We
have a list of 28 names and three or four
were overlooked by the Clerk. If ‘-Earn¬
est Worker’s” friend expects to get to
Heaven lie must repent in sack-cloth and
ashes, well, we suppose he wants to be a
grand juryman, The Commissioners are
sensible men and they don’t want mens
names i» the box who spins such long
yarns, and brays like that ugly animal
w’tii long ears. T»ke heed, “Earnest
Worker’s” friend less you Eli out of the
jury box next time where there is weep¬
ing and gnashing of teeth. You flatter
yourself very much and you have found
out perhaps under the same windy pro¬
cess that six jurymen was all the names
in the jury box in this District and that
“Old Vox” promired the negroes liis in
fluence to have tlieir names placed in
in the jury br-x. Well, perhaps ‘'Earn¬
est Worker’s” friend has liad a filthy
dream and dreamt ‘ Old Vox" wanted
to have a 'squires name arid used foul
means to get it, Lori pity such dream¬
ers. Rome of the very best people of
this district are willing to contribute
money largely to aid such fil'hy dream¬
ers to remove from tiie district. They
have destr >yed concentration at our
church by organizing little factions of
schools in each corner of the district,
that will not pay a teacher to teach our
children—destroy ing two good places at
cross roads, formerly occupied and paid
the teachers well, If these dreamers
were out of the way concentration would
once take place an.d a school house
would be erected at Union Church and
paying school that wou Id authorize a
teacher to take hold of, and our
would be educated and the
stand as a monument to the pro
citizens of Loraine, and those
passed by Union church could Bay,
is a people united heart and hand
promote the wolfare and education of
children, and Union church would
the name she bears.
Old Vox.
THE BLIND CHILDREN
We copy from .the Constitution, 6th 1
an article stating that Dr. Calhoun
soon operate upon (lie eyes of fifteen j |
children now at the Blind Asylum
Ga. Dr. Calhoun does this all
charity, yet we believe State .should
him for his labor, if successful. 1st,
it relieves the suffering. 2nd,
cause they will be no longer upon the
for support.
Dr. Calhoun was, at the suggestion of
Gov. Stephens, who was always looking
out to do some good, appointed oculist
for the Blind Asylum. When Gov.
Stephens learned that sight, could be re¬
stored to a number of the inmates, lie
told l>r. Calhoun to do the work and lie
would see that he was paid.
I11 (lie midst of the lab >r and cares of
the office, and the criticisms of the press
and public, why did not some oi the pre¬
vious Governors think of this great deed
of kindness to the unfortunate? Simply
because they did not possess the heart of
Stephens, and because they were looking
after tlieir own reputations rather than
the good of the people, and especially
the unfortunate. Mr. Stephens was rec¬
ognized while living as a great and good
man, hut liis death reveals the truth, ev¬
ery few days, when*something is pub¬
lished of his inner life, of a greater man,
possessing the best heart.

Association will hold their annual con¬
vention oh the 4th of may. Ro». J. F.

News reaches this place of a probably
. . .
fa’ftl accident Winch occupied near Lo

man by tlie name of Bently was careless

ball striking young Robert Smith square

condition at last accounts, and not ex
pected to live but a few hours.
