~ THE PIE-NIC,
Asn is the month of the year
whéh Doth young and old have to
get away from their | daily work
and have alittle recreation on the
banks of some ercek lov river, or
find some shady place near a spring
of good water, and wander under
the trees and watceh the little brook
let as the silvery waters rippls o
ver the pebbles as it goes on to its
home in the mighty deep ; or pluck
the beautiful lowers and hear the
merry song of the birde as they
fly from tree to tree ; the Editor of
this paper knowing that a day’s rest
would be good for his mind, con
cluded last Saturday to go to
Hooper’s mill, where it was an
nouncad that there would be a pic
nic. Karly in the morning, in com
pany with Morgan Head, Jay Hes
terly, Col. Robinsén and Gena
Loveless, we started for Bremen.
On our way the merry songs of the
birds .could be ‘heard; and also
the merry songs of our little band
could be aenrd echoing from hill to
hill. The band all Seéitied to he
merry. Wehad a good reason to
be merry ; for one of the band had
been confined to his oflice for o\'ol'l
six months. trying to get all the i
deas of Blackston ; another was just
thinking of his freedom for one
day, from the dull study of the
Code of the State of Georgia, with
the different Acts of the Legisla
ture, and also {lie ¢drds that involve
upon him as a J. P.; anether was
full-of glee] because he was free for
a day from the watch-fixing busi
ness ; another was glad that he was
free trom the licks and punches
that a man gets while plowing new
ground land ; and,another was glad
that he, for awhile, was free from
the dutics of an editor, typo and
other works of the country print
ing office, and alsp was glad be
cause he thought that he could
add, thht day;to his list of suli
seribers, thereby making the “loy
od ones at home” glad when he re
turned., The party; which consis
ted of five; was not long in going
from Buchanan to Bremen, where
we intended to Board the Georgia
Pacific train and go {0 Hooper's
‘mill, Jjust below Tallapoosa. We
arrived at Bremen some time be
fore the train, and the Editor skip
ped around and added many
‘names to his list of subscribers.
About 10 o’cloik the excursion
train from Atlanta came pufling in,
and we; with some Bremenites,
joined the already large crowd, ana
Were soon on our way to the pleas
ure spot. On the wdy the merry
plow-boy could be seen waving his
hat, and his face and eyes scemed
to wish the pleasure seebers a gay
time. At Tallapoosa we were joined
by a large crowd, and it was near
ly anything bat pleasant from there
to the pic-nic ground, which was
only three miles: Every coach was
badly crowded ; but soon we reach
ed our destination, and all scemed
eager to get oft of \l'\c train to sece
the sporting ground. :
Soon aftér our arriyal it was an
nounced that our dinner should
be spread under the sawmill shel
ter, which stood neat the river’s
Dbank., And_ while preparations
for dinner were being made; some
.Stl'()“(.‘(' up and down _the banks of
the Tallaposa, sume unchained thel
batean and weve riding up and
down the river: others: were talk
ing on politics and giving the good
traits. of jhis favorite - pandidate ;)
sthers (yeung men) tovld be seen’
sitting close to a blushing maiden,
prohahly begging ner to say “yes”,
while, others wer¢ se¢n making
preperations to satisfy afhungry:
stomach. About 12 . @elock din-;
ner was announced ready: Under’
the shady trees, tlong the river
bank, epuld ;be, seon groups from,
teng to hundredreds - Zitting uponi
the cool ground taking ib that es
sentinl? that ncarly evéry man
wants about that tithe of day. ;
After dinner it was abutennced:
tthat Capt, Jackson, of Atlanta,
Lwould addregi e vrowd, and he
was introduced with a short but
very apprapriate speech from Prof.
Jog G Kampi.of Douvglasville,
Capt Jacksen oz 2 line speakery
and he spoke to all—echool hoy
and girl, teacher and parents,
voung man and lady, and to those
interested in politics—especially.
to the votaed of the sth congression
l‘nl districe. Cu"l').t. Jackson’s speceh
was short, but gpicy, and was el
received by all. b
After the speaking, some got
hooks and lines and went to the
river, seemingly to hook the nim
ble minnow and wily pearch; but
it is quite probable that they were
trying to cateh the love of the fair
maidens who sit by their sides.
Many took rtrolls over the
woods, while many loitered around
the old sawmill, probably thinking
of the good dinner they had just
caten,
After all had rested awhile, the
young people gathered around the
old sawmill, and some took up
the logs that were placed there to
roll logs in 6n, and then the music
begutt; and the young men selec
ted their partners and they “tipped
the light fantastic toe” for over an
hout
All pusscd off quietly, with the
exception of some rowing ,between
some ofthe boys who had taken
too much *“hurah juice.” . ‘
The shrill sound of the whistle
of the 5 o’clock passenger, bound
for Atlanta; told ue all that 1t Was
tithe t 6 go; &nd #ll weie soon in
the ciars, hound for hoihe again.
It was twilight cre our little par
ty arrived at Buchanan; but we
soon found out that we were in
time for the entertainment.
The day was a gala day for all.
BOWDON, GA.
Epiror. BANNER i—Gardaning is
the all important topic among the
elder ladies while the younger
ones are phzzléd over the latest
spring fashions.
- Since the terrible cyclones many
of our citizens have built storm
pits for safety from the desiruttive
elements should such visitations

Quite a number of young gentle
men and ladies went to Tittle's
mill pond fishing last Saturday e
vening. Many expressed them
selves as having a “huge” time, but
was Oh !so tired when tbey come
home ; and worst of ail niogt of the
fish cinglit, whi® on “dAry Jand.”
After the crowd returned to town,
a very nice entertainment was giv
en at the residence of Mr. W. Al

We learn ‘that Prof. Tappaii will
give Lis.school holiday next Fri
day, and that they intend to pienic
