Hill are in thorough accord. Both want to be President in 1888. A celebrated negro politician in Brooks county, being out of a job in politics, has gone to stealing corn. It wouldn’t be at all surprising if the storms and earthquakes should punish Canada severely for harbor¬ ing Wiggins. Counterfeit silver dollars are being circulated in Rome. The Toronto woman who proposes a society for the prevention of kiss ing because it is unhealthy might somewhat lessen the risk by suggest ing short courtships. If you want to test a man’s gener¬ osity just ask him to lend you his umbrella on a rainy day. A mad dog scare is prevailing in all parts of Greene county, and the worthless curs are being killed light and left. Sadly sings a hopeful poet: “A thousand songs are in my head. A thousand in my heart. Where will they he when I am dead. And we are far apart?” In the waste bas¬ ket, Doc, within the ead and gloomy portal of the ever yawning w. b. If Mr. Cleveland should positive¬ ly decline to be a candidate for re election wouldn't there be a flutter throughout our country? It wouldn't he very surprising if he should decline after all that has been said about the outlook for ’88. It is probable that nothing but a de clension could prevent his renomi natinn and re-election. Caller—Ah! is Miss Arabella De Wolf at home? Bridget (meditatively)—Sure particular orders. She she gave me very I’m says if Mr. Brown calls say not at’home; but it Mr. Smith comes take him right in, and I’ll be right down. Now, which one are you, sir? No amount of legislation can ever force the manufacturer to pry out regularly more wages than lie re eeives in profits. But the strikers cannot understand this. There is no longer much doubt that Mr. Lamar is about to follow in the president’s footsteps and get married. The name of the lady is Mrs. Holt, and she resides in Macon, Ga. She is handsome, accomplish ed, the possessor of a fortune, ami is a member of one of the best fami lies in the South. It is an old love affair renewed, they say’. Mr. La mar was one of her early suitors, hut owing to the caprice of fate and an unhappy misunderstanding they were separated. Years rolled by. When they next met Mr. Lamar was a widower and his former sweet¬ heart a widow. Mr, Lamar found that he had not lost his interest in the charming sweetheart of his younger days. The wedding will take place, it is said, some time this winter. Missionary, who is called in tody ing South Sea Islander—Friend, do you forgive your enemies? Dying man—Enemies! I have none. I iiaye eaten them. It is said ex-Collector of Customs, Tomlinson E. Johnson, of nah. will oppose Congressman Not wood in his district, The tax returns for Georgia for the present year show an increase in property valuation to the extent of nearly seven million dollars, exclu sive ol railroads. Dalton pays $2,000 per ant um for fire insurance. Columbus has U.C Obly b, gg in g factoi> in Gtoigia, The time when a doctor most re grets to have to lose a patient is when another doctor gets if. “It may be that two heads are bet ter than one,” sighed the theatrical manager, “but not dead heads.” When a man’s pockell ook be comes larger than his Bible it is time (or an investigation ofb;sao counts.

A young man who has a farm, knows how to manage it, and is will¬ ing to take hold and do the w r ork himself, has the best assurance for making a good living of anyone iu the whole country'. As long as the lands are properly cared for and cul tivated, they will always give back as much as a good living, which is more than a good many other kinds ofbusiness will do.—Covington Star. “I wish I was a girl, but I’d want to be a big one,” said little Tommy. “What do you want to be a big girl for, Tommy?” asked a gentleman who was present. “Il l was a big girl I could wear a bustle, and then when the teacher j ut me over his knee 1 wouldn't mind it hardly any.” Col. Ingersoll is credited with the wish that the laboring men could have a president of their own and a majority in Congress, that they might learn^ow little can be done by legislation “They will find,” bethinks, “that making a living in this world is an individual affair, and that each man must look out for himself.” The Southern farm laborers would be great fools to join the Knights of Labor, an organization that is made possible and sustained through the means of protection which exacts of the farmer a contri¬ bution that goes to increase their wages.-—Augusta News. The fourteenth annual book of cotton statistics compiled by La¬ tham, Alexander & Co., of New York just published, contains estimates of this years cotton crop from nearly 2,000 correspondents throughout the southern states. The summary of the estimates makes the total crop of this year (1,292,708 bales. The survivors of the Tenth Geor¬ gia Regiment will have a re-union at the Hotel Lanier, Macon, on Oct. 27. Gens. Longstreet, McLaws and Gumming are expected to be pres¬ ent. A cordial invitation is extend¬ ed to every member of the old com¬ mand to be present and assist in or¬ ganizing a survivors’ association, Gen. McLaws was the first Colonel of the Tenth Regiment. It is thought that Mr. Powderly sold out to the “Home club” faction of the Knights, This secret organi¬ zation is said to advocate socialistic ideas. The future of the order will not be bright if its leader has lallen into the hands of this faction. Fashion has many times decided to sit down on the bustle, but it still holds its own, and is bigger than ev er. At the telegraph office—“That makes eight words, madam.” “Am I not entitled to send two more words?’ “Certainly, madam.” Very well, then, have the kindness to put the words ‘in hasie’ on the envelope of the telegram. Col. Si Hawkins, who has accepted the legislative contract lor Newton county, has placed Mr. E S. Stead man in charge of his paper until Christmas. The weather is not yet cold enough to make visitors leave your office dooi open, Judge Underwood, of Rome, is urgedTor the supreme court judge ship, In some sections of New York a lively snow prevailed last Sunday, Grandmaster Powderly attended a colored church in Richmond last Sunday. The state Fair at Macon next wee j. w j|| | )e one 0 f the very best ever held in Georgia. It will pay anybody to attend, Half fare on the railroads will be the rule, Yellow fever is terribly prevalent at Biloxi, Mississippi. It is said there were over 300 eases Monday and many have died. New Orleans has quarantined against that place; true facts from the public, and many cases are buried at nigiit. “This is where he drank his li quor,” is what mourning badges on a club room door mean, at the death of a member. The fire in Saulsbury, Maryland, Sunday night, swept everything, Only two small stores are left stand¬ ing on Main street. There is no exaggeration in the report that the \°^ s agregate a million dol ‘ ars - The P eo l ),e °‘ the t0 \ n a j homeless, no place to sleep or obtain , n shelter and nothing to eat can be ob tainet p TheFulton county grand jury has found true bills against Deputy Lni of Atlanta, for the murder of John Brown, an illicit distiller, sometime last summer. liie Atlanta city counci , at a meeting Monday, rescinded a form e r resolution permitting the sale of beer to families in that city, and consequently the beer business is at a stand still. Several ladies ap neared before the body and made speeches in opposition to the per m jt. The mayor /..fined. vetoed the bill and w»s The Weekly savs there are 240 ^^ 157 criminal Znt'totZl cases on the Hen* The Sundersviile Herald calls at¬ tention to the numerous foreclosures of mortgages in the United States court. These mortgages were giv«fa lit for money borroxVhd of the New tag land mortgage, the American free¬ holder mortgage company of London, American mm tgage company of Scot¬ land, and others. When these com panics once get their grip upon the unfortunate fartncrthey'li be satisfied with nolliihg short of the “pound of flesh.” The fanner with an eye to his own future will let these compa¬ nies and their agents severely alone. In advocating cyclone cellars, the Jackson News says: “We would much rather retire to some quiet, well conducted cyclone cellar, when¬ ever there appears to be a well founded suspicion that a cyclone is in the neighborhood, than to be obliged to spend the next- day in chasing around the country Col¬ lecting our limbs.” Henry Norris, convicted of the murder of George Elliot on the 2nd of March last, was hanged Friday in Buchanan.
