Twenty thousand dollars is the
amount given by the State to the
military thi- year.
The Legislature h a aecepterl the
Hem ■ for Confederate Soldiers wi h
the understanding that it is to be
ratified by the people.
Ovor one million ihillmx will be
given by the present General As¬
sembly to the School fund of Geor¬
gia this year.
The Legislature has cut off all ap¬
propriations to the Branch colleges,
with tho exception of $3 000 to >ho
Branch at Dahlouega.
The House has passed the bill
convening the session of 18it3 on the
second Wednesday in Jub , instead
of the 4 Wednesday in Oc ober as
provided for in the amendment to

Representative Bacon is making a
vigorous war on the railroads of
Cbrorgia. Representative l.'acon still
cherishes tho hope that he will some
day be Governor of Georgia, end he
impresses us with tho idea that lie
wants to get on the “ good side'' of
the voters of the State. We are of
the opinion that our present noble
Chief Execu'or will bo followed by
that good man, James H. B ount.
Wo clip the following from' the
la-t issue of 'he Rockdale Banner.
You can cipher it out at your leis¬
ure:
It should be borne in miDd that
neither Col. Jus. C Barton nor
Judge O. Seamans tot what they
asked for at the hands of the derno
eraiic Executive Committee, of this
county. It is very uujus. to at¬
tempt to bold Col. Barton responsi¬
ble for the mistakes of Ihe Couiu it
tee, if they made any.
Life can bermado much pleasanter
by our trying to make the b -st of
everything’; and then, when wo are
able to belter ourselves, we are Jin a
condition to enjoy better. It is an
impossibility that each and every one
of us should bo able to secure a
place that we might consider as
pleasant. Added to (his is the fact
that much that we see is deceiving,
and that, if we fail to find what we
are seeking i.r making a change, we
are only breeding discontent instead
of bettering oursevt s
“ Tiro beginning of strife is
the letting out of water," says 'the
wise king; and in n« ease is this
truer than in the cu-e of family quar¬
rels. The li tie broach, no huger ai
first than a child’s finger could stop,
hut through which comes t ie contin¬
ual dropping, if not attended to in
time, will widen and stretch, till one
fine day there is a waking up to find
the angry waters Biirging around,
sweeping iu an overwhelming a 1 the
sweet peace and 1 we a»d harmony
of home. There is no greater lallucy
than to suppose that, beouuee peop e
are relatives, there is less necessity
for tbe common courtesy and consid¬
eration that everybody is wi ling to
extend to the merest stranger.
Representative Richards, of New¬
ton, wants $1,000,000, appropriated
to the common schods of Georgia.
Mr. Richards is right. We want to
see every brnnch college iu Georgia
deprived of State aid ; we cant to
see the State University made an in¬
stitution the equal of uny in ihe land,
!<t it cost what it may, and then,
perhaps, we can educa’e our boys
here at home, and moke (hem com¬
petent to bike charge of our com -
mon schools nnd save our S ate ihe
humiliation of having to send North
for teachers. Georgia needs one
college properly supported and she
needs absolute free scho Is with
competent toachevs for G months iu
the year. Nolhing less viil ever sat¬
isfy us.
The man who lives beyoml his
means to keep np appearances, or
who professes to be able to do what

AN EXPERIENCE.
Conyers, (3ft., Nov. 4, 1H99.—Mr- J.
F. Almanii, Sly Dear Brother: As yon
have requested me to I will in mv weak
way ’ell of some of the drillin';-' of
the Lord, I hope. I was Mired bv
strict missionary parents and attend'd
these meetings regularly in the year
18(10. I felt to be a great sinner at til ’
missionary meetings; if I e'er had any
change, It was there I saw a beautiful
light above the brightness of the tilled smi,
and my sorrows was gone and joy
my soul. I we' t on through tho war
and found no peace nor comfort to my
(io r i-oul until t moved to Walton
county, Georgia, near Bulah church
tln re I found told a people I loved. I vent
to them and them what ft poor siner
I w iH, but having a desire to lie with
them, they reoeived me in the church
nod I was baptised by Brother U. M
A Inland. I got along for some time all
t ight, but through, ahis. I but had thank many dark God places
to puss some
times I have been made to n ;oie“ with
j >y uuexpn srabV D* liter Johnny, as
you request mo to do, 1 will also tell of
some of the Lord’s dealings
with me in 1878. In July some time,
while plowing in my field i almost give
up llie liitle hope I lmd. I had decided
I was not fit to live or dio. I decided
I would go to the church and tell
ihem shout it and that I wanted them to
take my name oil for l was not fit to
livo with them, I could not live as I
thought I ought I ill u a ; at one eud
of plow niy field, the other I tin n end thought I would I
to and hack lien
would go to tho hou e and t 11 my wife
id-out what I s g' ing to do, but just
a- I got to ihe place where 1 wa- 1 going
to unhitch my hor e end go to the
tl ere shone a beautiful light around me,
itseeuied t-> be a ciro’e shout thirty
across; this light. my dear brother,
ubove the brightness little of the sun, this
. irole was full of people,
c-hikl' en of God; there was a multitude
of th in, they were all praising God. 1
heard a voioe from heaven saying to
‘•go and tell what you have seen,” then
I looked up and I beheld the heavens
a tl my Bles e I Savior. Then in about
or member, not one while year lying later, as lied well as I re
in about 2
o'clock in the morning, I was awake and
ban been to for s"me time, I s iw an¬
other t eaut ful sight, not with my na¬
tural eyes, for it was dark, it was a
beautiful building, not made by man, it
seemed to be just above me i-ome little
distance. This had a it

w 1 beheld a- just ihose room for one to pa s
