EDITORIAL NOTES.
Mr. Bismuth ’Miller will repießcnt
the Augusta Gnzette at. Washington
during the present session of Con
gress.
A difficulty occurred on Sand ty
evening last, in Richmond county, be
tween Jessee Hicks and Columbus
Bird in which the latter killed the
former.
Herr Most, the Now York Anarch
ist, lias been tried and found guilty
Hu will perhaps spend awhile in the
penitentiary where he will not be able
to give advice so freely as to making
bombs.
The prohibitionists of Atlanta have
wisely concluded not to contest the
recent election in that city. In nil
probability it would not change the
result and would engender further
strife.
The columns of the Sentinel nro
open to our farmer friends, and we
propose to offer a regular depart
ment in which the tillers of the soil
are invited to present their views
upon matters in the interest of agri
eulture.
The Indian humbug doctor is
again traveling around among the ne
groes in this county. A few plain
words would no doubt induce him to
go to work or seek other quarters.—
There is too much work needed in
this county to give any room to
idlers.
• •• ■- -
Mrs. w. C Sibley, President of
the W. C T. giv's the Augustu
Gazette a plain and forcible lettei
criticising an editorial in that paper
upon the result of the prohibition
contest in Atlanta, and, by the wav,
the Gazette in its reply is not as
squarely to the mark as it is on othei
subjects. You arc simply on the
wrong track, kind neighbor. Come
out, own up, repent and do so no
more.
There is a preaaher in Upson coun
ty who has married one bundle I and
elevon couples and bus received in
marriage fees live dollars. \ hun
dred and ten pud him nothing and
one paid him $5. Tho government
or soma one else ought to
give thut man something for his pa
triotic service.—Thomaston Times
There nro a few Justice of the
Peace and preachers in this county
who could exchange experiences with
thut preacher.
HABLEM INSTITUTE.
raUF. J. W. ELLINGTON WILL UHSION
Hearing it rumored a few days
since that Prof. J. W. Ellington
would tender his resignation as
principal of the Institute, a Sextixh
scribe approached him upon the sub
ject and learned that the report was
true. He remarked that ho had
made up bis mind to do so for rea
sons that it is not necessary here to
mention,' and that the citizens of
Norwood had been urging him for
sometime to take a school at that
place It is with profound regret
that we have to part with so good a
teacher. He has during his stay
here endeared himself to this com
munity as a Christian gentleman
with noble traits of character both of
heart and mind, and in connection
with it all, has accomplished more
than any of his predeces-Ois, in that,
it is owing in a largo degree to his
untiring efforts and influence that
Harlem now has an academy second
to none in this part of the State.—
Wherever he goes he will cany the
warmest feelings and good will of the
Wf’tHtt.

to receive our goods and get the sime
and go home thinking that we have
done better as a union than we could
l as an indivi mal. Our organization
consists of a President, Vice-Presi
dent, Sacretnry and Treasurer, who
are elected annmiily. '1 ne prices v. e
pay are made to us as a club and our
rules require us to keep them ns we
can get better terms when we keep
them in confidence, and while we are
a club, ns to organization, the club i.s
responsible for no one, that is, if a
member wants to borrow money lie
must do it on his own res; onsibility,
the dub endorses for no one. Thus I
have given you a glance at the Cobb
hum (.'lul>, it you wish to know more
about ns, corn : ami join us We in
vite every honest son of toil to come
go with us, we will do you good. Be
fore leaving the subject we say to
you, dear reader, think, talk, organize
and begin nt once and then we may
|expect to do something. If you
! could have seen and heard the lions
of Thomson talk when we first or
ganized and then afterwards seen
them trying to sell to us you would
have been a little tickled.
Now, reader, the old year is fast
drawing to a dose, begin at once to
form chibs and may you in future
knock the greedy merchant out of the
“tic” pi ices.
As 1 promised my friend Pete some
lime ago to advertise for a wife for
him, and knowing the earnestness of
j the man, I will send you the words to
his unceasing song—
Oh for a wife to wbarn my fate,
To cheer my path in life.
