Besides his pupils there were present many of the parents and guardians of the cliil drop and a number of interested spectators. The Professor put his pupils through the new and difficult figures with the utmost precision, grace and ease. The misses in their white gowns and variegated ribbons, and the little “tots” in their cunning skirts, the boys in white pants and black stockings presented an ever changing, charming picture. The Professor is Master of the Art, and his long experience, covering nil of fifty years, makes him familiar nnd thorough with the urt he teaches. If lie is encouraged sufficiently he will tench another month and afford a good opportunity to the young who would like to be graceful in carriage and polished in manners.

It was to witness Mho (loath of his sister, Mrs. C, L. Sim- Imcns, widow of the late Judge J. >V . niin- foonaof Hancock county. The funeral ser- ivice was performed by Rev. J. R. King at lthe residence of her son-in-law, A. S. Bass, |of Devoreaux. Mr.Geo. C. Smith and wife will reach the ■city to-day. Mr. Smith has Bpeht two wln- Itors here, and part of the erring, engaged llu the cotton business. By his urbanity land exemplary conduct he made many at tached friends In this city, who will he pleased to welcome his return the more so “iscauee he brings with him a ‘‘better half” vho will be a worthy accession to our clety circles. Among the distinguished visitors to lawkinsvllle, there ie none whom the Dispatch la gladder to welcome than Hon. r nlel B. Banford.lof Mllledgevllle. This ntleman was for years Ordinary of Jdwin oounty, and was a leader In every od enterprise. His ability and charac- .. entitle him to high honors, and we ope some day to Bee him In congress, .e Is the guest of his brother-in-law, Mr. . D.Stetson, and is accompanied by his pn, Mr. Stetson Sanford, and hie daughter |lss Lizzie.—Hawklneviile Dispatch,22nd. There is not a subject that admits of an argument but has two sides to it. We have often .heard it said that there are two sides even to a pig track, and that one is as good as the other is often proved. The man who makes anywhere from twenty-five td 200' bales of cetton wants a law that no cotton in his county shall be bought in the seed. He is afraid his cotton will be made away with by thieves on his own or neighboring plantations., and looks only to his own interest. His neighbor is a poor man, only makes from two to five bales of cotton. He has not been able to get the credit his 100 bale neighbor has through the year, and lie wants and needs some ready cash, and prefers to sell his cotton in the seed to waiting the delay of hauling to market et. cet. et cet. Who will deny him that right? Who ould say that a man who has 100 acres of land in peaches should not be al lowed to sell them only until they are dried or canned? Nobody; If a man has so much cotton that he can wait the prooess of ginning and sale in the bag, probably he could hire detectives to catch thieves that he suspected of stealing his ootton In the seed. At least this Is done in every other busi ness where large Interests are at stake. This is a subject with two good sides to it; but nothing ean justify a law that takes away a man’s personal rights. J. H. N. W. J. Vaughn visited Macon last task. Dr, . H. M. Clark was on the sick list t week. and Mrs. L. J. Lamar have re- .«d from a visit to Griffin.

Some people seem to have ready, home-made comparisons over at their tongues’ end ready to be let loose at any time or for any reply to a ques tion. The Irish, wo believe, surpass all other people in this specialty, If it may so be dignified. We mot ono of tne sons of Erin a day or two ago, and the topic up in the gathering was beef; and somebody asked tlio question, If a butcher always knew when he sold beef if it was tender and good? Pat instantly replied to the interrogatory:—“Does a fish know the watah? Does a fish iver swam? Does the mitlier shape know the blate of its lamb? We heard no one dispute him, but got behind a tree and made a note of Pat’s happy comparison. T. E. WHITE, WE GROCER, No. 5, East Hancock Street, Still to the Front!

No gentleman of taste will wear clumsy or dirty siloes or boots, ora bad bat, or soiled linen. It does not mat ter particularly that his coat, vest, and pantaloons are fashionably made,, only that they are clean, without holes in them, and of some dark or or brown material. But it is essen tia), if a man would look well, that his hat and his shoes be claim and not too ancient. As to u woman, the less you dress her the prettier she is. All extran eous ornament only detracts from the natural beauty of the creature. Take a beautiful horse, for instance; all tlit, decorations that are put on the ani mal do not add to his or her beauty, indeed they conceal it. A woman, passably pretty, in tho face, with a well rounded figure, nnd a graceful walk will look charming in a five cent ealico dress cut to fit her shape. Both men and women destroy their natural good looks by seeking adven- itions aids to improve them. In short, simplicity and neatness con stitute good taste in dress. Excessive ornamention bespeaks the boor and the dowdy. How ridiculous the following from a Paris exchange will appear to all Americans: “The dificulty existing between M. Blank and M. Pointblank. were to day wiped out on tho field of honor. At the report of the pistols both stenographers were mortally wounded. At the hour we go to press M. Blank is weeding onions in his mother’s garden, and M. Point- blank is playing pool, having just se cured the 15 ball. WHICH 19 TO BR PITIKD? Miss Innocknck:—Oh, Nell, I aui so uneasy.

P r * Friday One of the most interesting among the visitors to Rome during the past week was Col. James A. Green, now of Milledgevllle, but formerly of Floyd county, and one of the largest surveyor-generals of the 6tate of Georgia. Col. Green was stationed in Rome by the government during the time of the Creek war in 1830, at which time there was nothing but the original forest and a few small shanties on the ■pot now covered by this beautiful and populous city.

Bet wean Extremes la Safety. Cash Or Credit. We have not banked much on that frequently repeated remark—“never cress the river till yon come to it.”— This Is intended to quiet all apprehen sions of what might happen, by en’ forcing tho idea that it is useless to consider the future and to provide against what it may or may not have in store for us. We grant it is useless to anticipate trouble, but it is wisdom to look it squarely in the face and by cautious conduct provide as far possible against its coming. There is another trite saying, on the other extreme, that it would do well to heed, that is - , “it is too late to lock the stable door after the horse Is stolen.” In other words, it is folly to take measures to prevent what has already happened. Now, between these two extremes there is safety; to-day, “If ye would be wise, heed my voice”, or words to that effect. There is every indication that September ig to be a very sickly month. An abundant fruit year has always been followed by a Fail of un usual sickness.. Already the hot days and cool nights admonish us of danger. Forewarned is forearmed. Let the the city authorities do their best to keep the city clean, and let individ uals and families practice temperance and prudence in living and in their pastimes and pleasures. Especially we would warn people, the young more than others, against night dissipation and late hours. We arc neither pes- 8imis f nor prophet, hut only a lover of our kind, and one that would he thought regardful of their well-being and well-doing. People have a strange way of ex pressing themselves iu this rapid money-making, money loving, selfish age. One rapid business man won’t listen to you explain, ho says, “Cash Talks,” turns on his heel and hur ries off. Another just as ardent as tho one we just spoke of, says to you, “Oil, Cash Works,” and off he hur ries. Now which is right? Neither. A well managed "Credit” heats your “Cash” to death. Cash will kill any man that tries it, if he honestly puts it into practice, regardless of men. rich or poor! But show tho City edi tor the man who does that. Banks don’t do it, capitalists renting houses don’t do it, and the merchant can’t do it, and don’t do it.
