Job Work Neatly and Promptly Executed. Congress performed one fourth of the legislation of the session during the last four days. Little Billey Mahoneis not dead yet. He is getting up a little boom of his own. A cyclone passed through the town of Monroe laA Monday, do¬ ing a considerable damage to prop¬ erty. The President has appointed Hon. Henry R. Harris, of Geocgia, to he third assistant postmaster general. The Ga. cities to be included in Armour's big cotton seed mill cir¬ cuit, will bo Atlanta, Augusta, Ma¬ con and Savannah. The death of three horses brought out Uom St. Louis for the Macon fire department, was caused by be¬ ing intransit 48 hours longer than was expected. Hon. W. T. Newman, United States Judge, is proving himself a holy terror to illicit distillers, quite a number have forfeited their bonds. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, for forty years prior to his death pas¬ tor of Plymouth church Brooklyn, and one of the ablest ministers of America, died last Tuesday of apo¬ plexy. A man in Omaha died last Mon¬ day and left orders that his body body should he cremated and his ashes placed over the bar where he was accustomed to drink. Hon. J, C. 0. Black, of Augusta has been selected by the Indies Me¬ morial association, of Columbus to deliver the Memorial address on Memorial day. Sam Jones says he can prophesy in March of the lazy farmers suc¬ “The grass will get the crop the buzzards get the nmle, an I the devil get him.” A farmer in Douglass county got behind with the merchants with whom ho was trading, and to keep from being dunned to death he erected a red flag with “Small-pox hero” inscribed upon it. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher,, by whose recent death America has her most famous preacher, it remembered, was a •prominent effectual figure in the election Mr. Cleveland to the presidency. A package addressed to the Prince of Wales, thought to bean infernal machine, has found its way to the Dead Letter office at Washington. It was held for postage. Since it has been opened the placard “Hands off” is not required. General Stonewall Jackson was once asked by a friend to give him a good motto or rule of life. His roplv u ae “[ have found a rule laid down by the Wise man, a safe one to be guided by . ‘In all thy wavs acknowledge Him and lie shall di¬ rect thy path.” Rev. T. G. Armstrong, pastor of St. Phillips parish in Atlanta, who was tried and convicted of conduct imbe-’Oming a minister has re¬ nounced the ministry. He is now in the insurance business. His in¬ clination is, however, to public speaking and that will probably be his final course. Saturdav night at Branehvillo, Ga.. engineer Heap and his fireman, Jeuet, colored, had a difficulty in which Jeuet drew a pistol on Heap, who went off and armed himself with a shot gun. Returning in a few minutes he unleaded the gun into Jeuet's body killing him in stantly. A coroner’s jury was sworn in, and returned a verdict of justifiable homicide. NVHY I AM A TOOK MAN. “Wool Hat,” in Planter’s Advo¬ cate, tells the following plain story why he is poor: “I am poor be¬ cause I buy more than I sell. In the first place. I buy a part of my meat from the Northwest; my fish comes from Portland, for the taking of which the Mainlander receives a bounty from the government. My onion sets and all my garden seeds come from Michigan. I sold the wool from eighteen sheep at 371 cents a pound to an agent of the manufacturing company at Read j Pa.; f our months thereafter bou S ht a hat from ,, the ga ™ e C ° m " pany, paying at the rate of six dol¬ lars a pound for the wool. The hide of a buck I sold at 5 cents a pound. It went to Elmira, N. Y., was tanned, sent back, and I bought it at 35 cents a pound, and it ed more than it did when I sold it. My ax handles come from necticut, my matches from Dela¬ ware, my pen, ink and paper from New York. Am I the only in Georgia?” A NEW CllA ZE. “Society ladies in the northern cities are going in for the new hat called Winnie Davis. It may be the name, or it may be the peculiar curve in the long front brim, which, shading the brow, makes it becom¬ ing to all faces. The hat was de¬ signed by a southern man, Mr. W. S. Withara, who has gone into bus incs at 635 Broadway N. Y. Oh, the vanity of women of fashion !”— Ex. If tire “Winnie Davis” hat is the “most becoming style” out this spring for ladies and misses, it is not the “vanity,” but the good mon sense of the lady buyers, that gives the shape such wide-spread popularity. We are at least glad to see that the name the hat bears has not proven a barrier in the way of its sale up north- Miss Winnie Davis, after whom the hat is named, is the daughter of Jefferson Davis. GOOD methods. Some farmers are successful, others are not. Some live well, have the comforts and luxuries life around them ; others live hard, work hard, have few of the com¬ forts and none of the luxuries. Some have a better start, perhaps, than others ; better farm and equipped; but it will be found the men who succeed, who live well and make money are men of od, men who.believe in and have a system of management, men who think on what they are doing, and do nothing at haphazard. speculator, dealer in futures stock jobbers may take chances, but there is no chance work the farmer. Nature laws which are imperative, as to what may be produced in claims and on certain lands, the law of supply and demand ulate the prices, and consequently the profit on what is produced. The thoughtful and successful farmer, while recognizing nature’s laws, will also give heed to the law of supply and demand that he may not waste his time in cultivating what already is a drag upon the market, and will consequently cause loss to him- If experience proves that there is more money an acre of grass than there is in acre of cotton, the wise farmer give some attention to grass less to cotton; if one acre will yield twice, three or times as much as an acre the wise farmer will give attention to potatoes and less tobacco; if one good cow is more than two poor ones: farmer can save money and feel by raising his own supplies and feed his stock the wise farmer will raise instead of buying, when it sometimes be hard to get the money to buy with, from what got to seli. The man of meth od thinks of all this, lives well. makes and saves money ; the man without method does not, works hard, lives hard and is always run to the throat-latch to make ends meet—and they dont always do it. —Union & Recorder.
