We regret to chronicle the death of Mr. Jbhn Reagin, which occurred on last Sunday morning. He has been an invalid from his infancy. A cotton factory will give the farmers a market for their products and work to the mechanics. They are the ones most vitally interested. Our young friend Joe Johnson, accom panied by about 30 feet of good grass rope, want out the other day to capture the bear. It is said that he was going to tie him like his grand pa used to do. The re-union of the 18th Georgia Wed' neslay was a grand day. Company ‘‘B,” Dr. Stewart ot this place captain, was the largest and will receive the old battle flag.

We advise every one to at least see these unexcelled shirts before purchasing. We sympathize with Mr. Ehney in the loss of his little child. Just one week ago he was called upon to mourn the death of his noble wife, and now death has robbed him of his only child. Truly the hand of Piovideiue reHs he wily upon him. A CORRECTION Mr- Editor—You spoke last week of the small attendance at the funeral of one of our best Christian membets of the Methodist Church. In extenuat’on of which, I feel it my duty to give the fol lowing reasons for the honor of our Church. First, the pastor was not at home. Second, by some neglect, the bell was not tolled, and but few, therefore, knew the.time of burial. Third, in consequence efthe extreme hot weather, decomposition had so far advanced that great despatch was nocec sary. Th se reasons will. I believe, ex¬ onerate us from any mean neglect of the much loved Christian sister *!n our last , u leS . 0 , ie ‘‘ Mexuodist. The above “correction” don’t correct., 80 far as the P astor ls c ° ncern * d he ls j ^leased. Iu the s-c -nd reason wh " e odist church does contain ma.v good and noble ohriftains, is guilty. It ought not ; to have been “neglected.” Tne church knew she was dead; knew when she was! to be interred and it was somebody 's ; dirt!/to toll t he bell. j • ... -«=—— - APPLICATION ASKING FOR LET TEKS Of DIoMlbSlUri.

The last pale tays of fhe summer sun are tinging with a fashionable Ime the withering leaves of the old Fnglish peach lree that forms a canopy o’er our head A gentle zephyr fans our brow, plays wkh our silver locks and softly rubs the tip of our auburn nose. What’s that! A delicious odor softly touches the sense of smell; a soo'hing influence steals o’er our brain and we realize that we are in the home of the silver skin. What’s that ! A gentle voice is creeping into our ear! It is the voice of the cuke I He !s talking to Ihe silver skin. “ What’s thy future ?” we hear him ask, and tiie sweetscented reply is waft¬ ed back upon the gentle breeze, “ I am hlin(i as to the future.

The belle went to church about a week after my mother’s demise and soenl her last remains out thiough the audience, It was an effecting scene. Several ladies fainted, and every time maiden bieathed a victim dropped. She kissed her beau good by that night and as her hot breath moved through his delicate mustache he pressed her to his breast and whispered ‘my own dear silver skin. ’ They married. My mother made the match. My father is dead. During the great w ar on dogs in Atlan ta he was sold to a butcher of that city and disappeared with the noble howlers through the sausage mill. My brother perished in Africa He was carried there by’a missionary. The missionary fell into the hands of savages. My brother was used as a flavoring for for a missionary stew'. My sister was considered a murderess, bhe weighed to pounds. She fell into the hands of a McDon¬ ough b*dle. Inguns, especially silver skins, don’t grow to large for their emporiums. The belle was a determined girl and said, “ I will eat you or bust !” She busted. What will be my record and fate I know not. I am longing to go out in the world, to be in actual use. I care not to what land I go. 1 care not how' I am served or into what I am made just so I am never get into Atlanta boarding'house hash. That would oe a humiliation ; a stain upon the family record I could not bear.’ The voice was hushed and thus spake the cuke: “I, too, have a family and a family record, but I will not give it. I propose to make a record of my own. I long to get free from this frail vine ami down to actual work. When I get out in the world L will have thousands of friends. The physician is the friend of the cuke, even as the cuke is the hope of the physician. I am the “ trucu ’’ for the doctor. I am the truck that converts the sweet infant mo a howling half-moon. Iam the tinea that pins the upper limbs of the old man to the pit of his stomach, and throws the old lady to (he floor with the gripe of death.
