EDITORIAL NOTES.
Negrocti are atill leaving the
tnrni and going to cities to live.
Municipal polities in Harlem
promise to wax warm for the next
two weeks.
The detestable tire cracker has
put in an appearance in the lianila
of young America.
The Ath ir.ta Capital says three
of the handsomest men in the Sen
ate are confirmed bachelors.
At this season of the year we
hare never known as small amount
of grain sown in this county.
The matrimonial market of
Taliaferro county seems to be on a
boom. The Democrat reports nx
marriages in its hist issue.
Wonder if the Georgia Legisla
ture will take up the dog question
this session? As it is of interest to
the people, we guess they will let
it severely alone.
The Hillman mineral springs
near Sharon, Ga , is creating quite
a reputation for its medicinal
properties. People from all parts
of the Slate are visiting it, to try
its virtues.
You may flank the l> >y collec

tree, but when the fair sex pul in

speak.
It is thought that the free pass
system is doomed, as it is gener
ally Conceded that the House and
Senate conference comm tlee will
•concur on the inter-Stale com
uierce bill. This will no doubt
wind up legislative business with
in the prescribed 40 days.
The prospect at present is that
• great numbei of acres of laud ii>
this county will remain uncultivat
ed another year, and the principal
reason is that farmers are unable
to control lalair to any advantage.
This is certainly a question of con
siderable magnitude just at this
time.
Hon. Toombs Dußose,' the
worthy representative from Wilkes
county, refuses free pa-scs from
the railroads. We say hurrah for
Mr. Dußose ! he is built of the
right kind of metal. Such action
on his part goes to show that he
is in the Legislature to r< present
the people and not the railroads.

JL Casey brought up reflections of
Columbia in her palmy days. ()h,
for a return of the pro-perky th at
overshadowed this grand old coun

The members of the Farmers
Club ot this county are putting
forth efforts to erect a neat and
substantial building for the use of
the Club, on the road leading from
Harlem to Appling. This is a
commendable undertaking and
every farmer in the county should
become a member of the Club and
push the good work forward.
Up to this time we can see vety
little that the Legislature has done
of any practical Ix’uetit to the peo
ple ot this Stale. We are of the
opiukm tbat at the close of the
present session the momliers that
constitute the honorable body
should draw up a resolution to the
effect that then* shall not lie an
other meeting of the Legislature
or ten yean.

ALMOST I; Ml EARA HI. E
Sparta 1.-huiaelite : The session
of the Legislature has been
indefinitely pro'onged beyond the
constitutional limit of forty days.
Taken in connection with the
-now, this is almost unbearable.
W ITH A FREE PASS
Waynesboro True Citizen: A
party guilty ot felony, mid evad

with the free pass ot a member of
the Legislature.
REFI SEO TO TRIP.
Washington Gazette: Onedav
last week the Warrenton band
was brought here by some ot our
young men for a hop, but the
light fantastic toe refused to trip.
Our young ladies declined to en
gage iu the dance. Without going
into the merits of the matter, we
greatly admire this adherence to a
principle they believe to be right.
SECOND GROWTH.
Gainesville Eagle : Mr. David
11. Jarrett, who resides near Sugar
Hill, in this county, brought to
our oilice, Tuesday list, a couple
of well-grown and fully ripe horse
apples of the second gr >wth. The
blooms appeared in July and
several apples remained on the
tree until fulty matured The
specimen before us is of good size,
beautiful in apperance and very
mellow.
IN TENSIVE FARMING.

six miles east ol town, in Troup
county, cultivated himself, this
year, seven acres of land, with the
following results ; From one and
one-halt acres planted in potatoes,
sixty bushels; forty-seven gallons
isyrup from one and one-half acres
n cutie ; from two acres in corn,
sixty-five l>u.-h< Is ; one four acres
in cotton. 2,125 pounds lint,
making four hea\y bales. Mr.
Palmer is sixty-seven y ears ot age,

TELLING HIS EXPERIENCE.
An old W ilkes county dmkev
tells his experience with fanning
this year. He says: In <le begin
ning of da year I went to Mr.
and axed him to run mo; ho told
me ho would if 1 would give him
a lien on my hor-e mid crop, I
told him all right, so he let me
have my vances, and it tuck alt 1
made to pay de rent andjuanna
and 1 owes Mr. one hundred
and titty dollars, and I don’ know
who will git old Morgan first—
the buzzards or de merchant, as
a buzzard set on the stable the
other day and peeped through de
crack at him and I wouldn't be
surprised if he didn’t turn jack on
de men limit. But I'se done de
bes I can.” A ten dollar horse or
mule is the best property a negro,
can have, as on that be can get
from seventy-five to one-hundred
dollars worth of supplies.—Wash

KILLED ON His FIRST TR P.
I
Macon News: Last Friday,
morning young man, apparently I
about twenty years old, walked j
into the office of the master ol j
transportation of the E. T., & G.;
Railroad, this city, and asked for a !
situation, giving his name as J. P. |
I’eadrich.
There being a vacancy, he was,
given one, and left in about an j
hour as a train hand on a freight
between Macon and Jesup.
When the train arrived at Demp-;
sey, Peadrich went between two j
cars to corple them, and was
caught between them and was
mashed to death.
His remains were brought back
to Macon Saturday afternoon.—
Efforts were made to find out
something concerning the young
man by the officers of the road,
but they were unsuccessful.
It was learned that he boarded
at 274 Fourth street, where he ■
had been stopping only a day or
two.
The remains were turned over
to Wood & Bond, undertakers,

and placed in a cdffin. They were
not interred, however, until
yesterday afternoor, theofficeis of
the road hoping to learn some
thing regarding the young man’s
; relatives or home.
l iiless the article meets the eye
of some one acquainted with the
young man, or his family, perhaps
they will never know that his re
mains lie in an unmarked grave in
our cemetery.
Now, perhaps, a mother, a
father, a si-ter, a brother, or a
wife, are eagerly awaiting tidings
from the absent ones, and as the
divs roll by and the years come
anil go, these beloved ones will
mourn for one whom they know
not is dead.
