LOCAL AFFAIRS.
—Merry Christmas!
—Christmas gift! is theory of the
average juvenile as he perambulate
the streets this morning.
—Notice the change in the adver¬
tisement of Messrs. J. T. Bulker &
Co., Tennille, Ga.
—The girl who postpones the pro¬
posal of marriage much longer will
soon have Air. chances for this year.
—Mr. T. Solomon Page is an¬
nounced as a candidate for Tax Col¬
lector of Johnson county. Ilis card
appears in this issue.
—What is smaller than a mite’s
mouth? The man who will read a
newspasK v twelve months and then
refuse to pay the poor printer.
—In Dr. Millers Female Pills are
-combines! those properties which are
sure to ailevi.ite suffering and give
you Imaitii again. Read the
.use incut to “Every Lady.”
He wish our readers and the
balance oi mankind a happy merry
Christmas. We hope nothing will
transpire during this day, that will
mar the pleasure or lessen the joy of
aiiy person.
—It is generally customary for
jo inters tp take holiday during
C iristmas wi«k. This is a time-hon¬
ored custom, and we should have ob¬
served it,but for our legal advertise¬
ments.
—All persons in debt to the Re¬
corder are respectfully invited to
come forward, during the holidays
and settle the same. Don’t feel
slighted, the invitation is general,
and is extended to all.
—Dr. J. L. Walker wants all per¬
sons in debt to him for professional
services to come forward and settle
"by the first day of January next. All
•demands not settled by that time will
be placed in the hands of an officer
for collection.
-------
—We again call the attention of
our readers to the advertisement of
Air. Z. Smith. Air. Smith isamodel
voting man, strictly honest in his
dealings and moderate in his charges.
He is too well and favorably known
to require any words of commenda¬
tion from us. If you need any
work in bis line, patronize him and
you will never regret it.
---
—We are pained to chronicle
the death of Air. J. AI. Sheppard,
which sad event occurred on the 21st
inst., at the residence of his step¬
father, Air. G. B. Harrison of Ten¬
nille, Ga. Air. Sheppard was a broth¬
er of Mr. AL AL Sheppard of this
place, and was well and favorably
known to our people. He leaves a
large circle of friends and relatives
to mount his untimely demise.
—This issue does not contain the
usual amount of interesting matter.
It is merely brought out to meet the
requirements of the law in reference
to legal advertisements. Next week
the Recorder will come to time
with a summary of the two weeks
news. Remember this is the printer’s
holiday; and no person who reflects
upon the arduous labors and close
confinement of the printer’s every
day life, can well complain at the
little recreation he thus takes.
H alter A. Taylor,of Atlanta, says:
I have been pushing the sale of
Brewer’s it Lung Restorer, and selling
isfied at every opportunity, I and an sat¬
that will establish a good
sale for it. I do not remember of a
single instance where 1 sold one bot¬

The Primitive liaptists.
The Primitive Baptists make it a
rule to expel a member from the
church who takes advnatage of any
rebel law or refuses to pay a debt.
A few months since one of this class
—a pretty rough looking case—en¬
tered an Athens, Ga., store and
wanted credit for a few goods until
he could sell his cotton. Not know¬
ing his customer, the merchant
refused, but about this time a well
known elder of the church entered
and tapping the farmer on the shoul¬
der, asked: “How are you, Brother
Frank?” “Is that gentleman a mem¬
ber of your church, Uncle D?”asked
the tradesman. “Oh, yes, and a
good one too,” was the reply. “Well
then, my friend,” continued the
dealer, “go through this house from
cellar to garret and pick out what
you want. I will sell you the whole
establishment, clerks and all, on
credit, with only your religion as
security.” It turned out that the
customer was one of the solid men
of Northeastern Georgia.— Tel, t£ -
