Columbia Sentinel. T V TUTJaRD. ) fl( .. rOh , J. M. ATKINSON, f “ICmbmTOa !> 16. 18 6 I PRICE, U 00, TN ADVANCE. 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 tor for a Sunday school Christmas tree, but when the fair sex pul in a plea on the same line yon had as well plank down without argu tnent, for they will beat you two to one We know whereof we 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. A ride down the Petersburg road a few days ago, in passing the reaidedee once owned by Dr. 11. 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 ty, when it stood second to none iu the Empire State of the South. 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. Our worthy contemporary the {Sparta Lhmiielitc is given to mak ing shatp hits and the following is the latest from Bro. Sidney: “L'-sj headwork and more hand work would s<t Home ot the stag gering men of the country firmly on their feet.

Atlanta Capital : It hsa d tint one of the Senators boarding at the, M irkhani house arouses t> <• boarders at 4 o’clock every morn ing calling hogs to keep in practice while away from home. NOT A PINT OF GRIT. Lincolnton News. The man who can quietly and serenely sit or lay Hat ol his back ami have a dozen boys wallop ng him in the snowy slush has bushels ot patience and forbearance but not a pint of grit. 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 ing the sherifl was recently arrest ed in Southern Georgia traveling 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. Rev. Jesse A. Palmer, living 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, and says he had '■ery little assis tance in making this crop. 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 ington Gazette. A NARROW ESCAPE. Lincolnton News ; Last Friday morumg, Morgan, the little son of Mr. J 11. Nash w:i« tiding a young hoi-e belonging tn Mr. N. to water. Sam his older b|oth« was accompanying him. Tbebovs 1 concluded to have a little fun and try’ the mettle of their steeds. Sum was thrown from his horse, an I, to frighten Morgan, feigned I that he was dangerously hurt. Dismounting his horse he hastened to the side of his brother when the horses began kicking. One of, the horses kicked Morgan once or twice making an ugly and danse ! . 15 I runs wound just below the knee. | Dr Ferguson was called in immediately and though painfully cut and bru sed he is doing well I and will soon be up. 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, I* 1 "yss-gyiy ; Trie! in the Cmcihk Myo sq? . .MranvMrw. —i ; —-- TT.im.iif.-~iti - ♦ Gi '>n*y yettrn n" » I di*‘- *.i re I a ’rt!e aorc on tny c’.n i'k. and the dtM° ns pro- . . < ircer i have trie l a number »>f physicians', out whh >ul r: '« i\ ; " any p r:na- I .Vnoi ;be mi:. /••r >nv ur two spccialis’H.

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.
