t Six Hundred Beef Cattle.—Col.
A. J. Pound, from ‘Milledgeville, was
in Hawkinsville this week just from
a visit to rhe cattle ranges of Wilcox,
Irwin and Worth counties. He pur
chased last week six hundred head
of beef steers from the stock raisers
of the counties named. He will pass
through Hawkinsville next week with
the first drove, which he will take to
Macon. He says the cattle are in
fine condition. The winter was very
cold, but was dry, and the cattle have
fattened rapidly since the voung
grass came out.
Death of Mr. J. D. Fannin.
Fannin died on the
n l g r? t 1 of 17t h inst at the residence
of Col. John P. Fort in Dougherty
county. He was sixty-nine years o*f
age, and the only brother of the late
Mrs. Dr. Tomlinson Fort. His re
mains were brought here and buried
in the Fort lot in our city cemetery.
l he Y were accompanied by Col. John
t • * ?rt of Dougherty county, Col.
L?™ 1118011 Fort and Miss Kate Fort,
°t Chattanooga, Mrs. Julius L. Brown
of Atlanta, Mr. Marsh Johnson, wife
and daughter of Macon. A number
of our citizens met the remains at the
t ^ le Georgia rail-road on
Wednesday morning, the following
gentlemen acting as pallbearers:
Messrs. G. T. Whilden, George Hang,
G. D Case, H. V. Sanford, E. P. Lane,
and Dr. II. M. Clarke. Proceeding to
the grave the burial service was read
by Rev. T. H. Gibson of the Methodist
church.
Mr. Fannin passed the greater por
tion of his life in this city, moving to
Macon after the war. His parents
having died in his infancy he became
a member of the family of his sister,
Mrs. Dr. Fort. It was here he passed
the happy days of youth a Ad man
hood up to middle life. In his last
illness his thoughts Avent back to
those days, and lie talked a great deal
of Milledgeville and his early friends,
most of Avhom preceded him to the
grave.
Before the war he had a fine prop
erty ; was a gentleman of leisure, and
possessed the high social qualities for
which southern men of Avealth were
noted in ante bellum days. With a
bright intellect, kind and genial dis
position, he Avas an agreeable compan
ion and a true and valued friend. In
all the relations of life he Avas honor
able and high-toned in his dealings
with his fellow-men. He never mar
ried, but the memory of ‘uncle Joe’s’
unselfish life Avill long be cherished
by loving kindred,and friends through
out the state will mourn liis depart-
THE CHILDREN’S
Sunday School Union Picnic.
ure.
‘‘Childhood!—happiest, stage of life:
ree from care auU free from strife,
"'ken sticks of pepperment possest
A sceptre's power to sway the breast,
And Heaven was round us as we fed
On sweet ambrosial ginger bread.”
To one who has weathered the
storms of many winters, Avhose heart,
though battered and Avorn, is not en
tirely seared by that infallible caute-
ry, an uneasy, guilty conscience, and
Avho still admiring all the lovely and
beautiful in God’s creation, is tempt
ed to “lift his heart from nature up to
nature’s God,” there is nothing more
SAveet or enjoyable than the merry,
gleeful romps of children, when turn
ed loose and relieved from all re
straints of school and the convention
alities of society, to give themselves
up to a Avliole dav of unalloyed en
joyment.
Such was thp occasion of the picnic
given to the children, pupils of the
various Sunday Schools in Milledge
ville on yesterday.
From early morning till 10 o’clock,
the principal streets were gay and
iistir with the rustle of starched mus
lin, the flutter of ribbons, the twirling
of bright colored parasols of the little
Misses from four to sixteen, Avitii a
dashing, here and there, of the grey
uniforms, glittering buttons and chev-
rons of the young cadets, and manly
and active forms of other gallant boys
and young men, till by Avagon, buggy,
carriage, omnibus, herdic, and on
foot, a stream of living freight—pre
cious freight—Avas seen pouring out
the street toward ‘Carrington’s grove’,
which, with such waving of handker
chiefs, smiling faces, fluttering fans,
and merry, ringing mirth-provoking
laughter of happy, happy children,
made a soul-inspiring sight that would
cause old hearts most truly to appre
ciate the sentiment of that good old
song :
“Ob would I were a boy again,
When life seemed formed of sunny years,
And all the heart then knew of pain,
Was swept away with transient tears.”
After dinner, the same sports Avere
resumed, until late in the afternoon,
Avhen they returned in the same con
veyances, and as they came, in open
wagons, rattling through the streets,
packed in as thick as sardines in
Bhx—waving hats, hands, handker
chiefs, fans and fairly making the
welkin ring with long continued,
deafening shouts of merry glee, it Avas
evident that the occasion had been
one, long to be remembered, and Avas
eminently a complete success. And
each and all were indeed for one day,
at least, made happy, but none more
so than your humble servant,
“C. Sharp.”

Editors Union A Recorder:
The Bethel S. S. celebration on the
3rd Saturday in May Avas a decided
success. A large croAvd began to
gather at 9, and before 11 the church
Avas filled. The opening song, “Glory
to GocVm the Highest", by the choir,
was Avell rendered. Prayer by the
school, followed by a song. _ Master i
Tatum Harper recited “A chip of the
old block,” and was Avarmly cheered.
Miss Mattie MyrickgaA T e us “Daisy’s
Offering,” in a clear sweet voice. Miss
Jennie BroAvn read “Under His wing”
well and touchingly. Ben D. Myrick,
“Psalm of Life.” He spoke well, and
Ave saAV a future orator, if he will
press on. (I understand he is a cous
in of the late Senator Hill.) Miss
Mamie Harper read “An Answer”, a
sweet little gem from the Woman’s
Mis. Ad\’ocate. Little Marion Gibson,
“A Avish” Avas well spoken for so small
a boy. He avus cheered rousingly.
Walter Green came next in a prohibi
tion speech, and did exceedingly well.
Miss Julia Minor, SAveet as the fra
grant AA'ild rose, modestly, beautifully,
spoke, “Only a blade of Avheat.” She
Avas so avinning as she brought her
offering that I thought of Ruth of old
as she stood gleaning Avlieat. Several
beautiful songs Avere sung, and the
crowd Avas invited, to a banquet
spread on tables in the rear of the
church. Everybody seemed to enjoy
the occasion, and ice lemonade flowed
freely.
In the afternoon Ave had some tine
music and singing. A gathering cloud
hurried the croAvd home, and many
took refuge from the fierce Avinds in
out houses, negro cabins, &c., none,
hoAvever Avere hurt.
On Sunday, after an able sermon by
Rev. T. H. Gibson, the W. F. M. Soci
ety held its monthly meeting. Miss
Julia Minor read Miss Haygood’si let
ter to the Society, while the little
missionary buckets were opened and
contents counted, amounting in all
to $14.28. Miss Jennie Brown will re
ceive the prize for the largest amount
obtained.
Mrs. E. Z. Brown is still very ill.
A fine rain at this place, and farm

Mr. Harrison says he did not get

The new bishops avIio were ordain
ed at Richmond Thursday have long
been regarded as bright and shining
lights in Southern Methodism.
The Rev. Dr. William Wallace Dun
can is a native of Virginia, and is now
forty-seven years old. He is president
of Wofford college, at Spartanburg,
S. C., and -is considered' one of the
ablest ministers in the church.
The Rev. Dr. Eugene Russell Hen
drix was born in Missouri in 1847. He
accompanied the late Bishop Marvin
in his tour around the world. For
several years he has been president of
Central college, Missouri.
The Rev. Dr. Charles B. Galloway
is a native of Mississippi, and for the
past four years lias been editor of the
New Orleans Christian Advocate. He
is a young man of about thirty-seven.
The Rev. Dr. Joseph S. Key is a
Georgian. He graduated at Emory
college in 1848, and has been engaged
in pastorial Avork since that time, be
ing noAv stationed at the First Metho
dist church in Columbus. He is a
man of distinguished learning and pi
ety, and his elevation to the college of
bishops is highly gratifying to the
methodists of Georgia.

Piles are frequently preceded by a
sense of weight in the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing
the patient to suppose he has some
affection of the kidneys or neighbor
ing organs. At times, symptoms of
indigestion are present, flatulency,
uneasiness of the stomach, etc. A
moisture like perspiration, producing
a very disagreeable itching, after get
ting warm, is a common attendant.
