We learn that earnest efforts are

the most nattering of these requests
come Trom the employees of the Asy-

has proven himself competent and
faithful and we feel assured that the
trustees will not aocept his resigna

do not know Col. Humber’s plans,

government is founded on the ten
commandments. The best govern
ments are those which furnish the
surest prstection to life and property,
and the strength of a government is
in the virtue and intelligence of its
people. Under Ood’s direct control
the king on his throne dared not in
terfere with the sacred rights of pro-
perty. Nihilism was a black spot on

edy for this growing evil is to en
courage and help men that they may
have families and homes. The love of
home was akin to the love of God
and is Christianity’s sweetest support.
The Augusta Presbytery

day, and the Introductory Sermon

Brown of Washington, the retiring

The Presbytery consists of one
preacher and one ruling elder from
each church. About twenty-five com
missioners are expected to be in at
tendance in this city. Arrangements
have been made by the local commit
tee for their entertainment There
will be preaching every night at 7:30
o’clock. The Sacrament of the Lord’s
supper will be administered on Sun
day morning. Addresses will be made
before the Sunday School at 4 o’clock
P. M. The Union Missionary meet
ing will be held at the Presbyterian
church on Sunday night.

meeting of the Presbytery.
The public are cordially invited to

Our City to Be Illustrated.
Mr. B. M. Blackburn of Madison,
Ga., who is at present associated with
the Atlanta Constitution in writing
up and illustrating the progressive
towns of Georgia, was in our city last
week, and made all necessary arrange
ments for writing up and illustrat
ing our lively little city. We may
expect a graphic description of the
“Old Capitol” from the pen of Mr.
Blackburn, who has demonstrated,
in other cities, his ability to make a
likeness true to nature. We have
not been so much engaged as some
other cities have in erecting palatial
residences and costly public buildings,
but we have directed our energies
and our means to the erection of In
dustries which are far more bene
ficial to the community, and give
a broader and more impressive influ
ence to strangers than palatial res:-
dences aud iuapjnific6nt public edifi
ces.
Since the above was written the
Constitution of the 80th has reached
us It is an accurate portraiture of
Milledgeville and its leading mercan
tile and professional men. As far as it
goes it is correct. It has not that rosy
hue that is put on some of descrip
tions of Georgia towns, But we pre
fer the truth to color.
The Navigation of the Oconee.
Mr. Adolph Joseph readied home
Sunday morning from New York. On
his way lie stopped in Washington,
and conferred with our representa
tive in Congress, Hon. James H.
Blount, in regard to the opening of
the Oconee river to navigation. .He
says Mr. Blount lias not been negli
gent in this matter, but on the con
trary lie lias exercised good j .dg-
ment aid discretion and that ho is
faithful to the interests of his constit
uents. He lias been and is at work
for us; and Mr. Joseph thinks un ap
propriation sufficient to open the
river will be secured.
New Machine Works.
Messrs. Geo. R. Lombard & Co.,
of Augusta have rented the budding
formerly occupied by the Milledge-
ville Iron aud Machinery Works,
and will open machine shops in this
city. These shops will be under the
managemdnt of Mr. Pooser. We wel
come to onr oity this much needed
industry.
The Right Spirit-Cherish It Fellow-
Citizens-
For one time we may say without
the least chance of mistake, that the
people of Baldwin county and the cit
izens of Milledgeville were never so
closely united, and so universally of
one opinion as to the importance of
planting deep, and strong our city and
county interests and then cultivating
them with care, as now.
For a long time the county bridge
over the Oconee wasa perpetual irrita
tion, until flood after flood made it a
chronic sore.
That old ailment is healed, perhaps as
long as this century lasts, if not long
er. Our county people, over a valued
portion of it, are now bound with iron
bands that will serve to keep up daily
intercourse and cement stronger the
bonds of interest and kind feelings be
tween County and City. The charac
ter of a city is often determined by its
business rneu. And where, in any
small city of eight thousand inhabi
tants, can be found stronger, more en
ergetic, more live business men than
are to be found in this old city of
the “red hills of Georgia?”
We are not writing up the city, its
advantages, commercial, educational,
or otherwise; we are at presentengag
ed in calling attention to the flood-
tide of prosperity that has reached us,
and the united sentiment that moves
our population to a larger growth and
a wider sphere of usefulness. It is be
fore us. Our business men aud capi
talists have caught hold with a firm
hold, and they are not going to let go.
Rest assured of that. The rapid
growth of this oity in wealth and pop
ulation, has been the means of bring
ing to the front many young men who
have hitherto been content to serve
in old established firms. This is all
chauged now. The young men have
stepped out of the shadow of success
ful houses, in which th*y have served
long and well, and are now able and
ready to pilot their owu barks on the
oeean of trade; and with strict atten
tion to business, affable and courteous
mauuers, promptnes iu its pursuit,
with salesmen whose experience and
knowledge will euable them to antici
pate tl^3 wants of customers, they will
grow, prosper, aud expand.
But when we started out we only
meant to call attention to the unity
of sentiment that pervades our whole
people at this time, and to congratu
late one aud all of our readers on a
consummation so long desired.
