M o new a most peculiar cabbage
recentiv that came out of Mrs. Oar*
lie Guy ten’s garden. It was of the
large York variety and from tiic
outside looked like a perfect cabbage,
but when divested of its outside
leaves, there are twelve distinct cab
bage heads, each standing to itself,
hard nud white, about the size of a
turkey egg—those small heads grow
ing in a pyrumidical shapo. This
was certainly u freak of nature.
Oil tho Sundcrsvillc road is a negro
church known us “New Bethel” to
which the elite (?) of Buckeye be
long. Last Sunday t hero was u large
concourse ot people gathered ut this
church, dinner spread on the
grounds and two "funerals preach
ed.”
Mrs. U. A. Hodges, of IKrjghts
villo, spent several days of last week
with her old friends of this npigli
borhood. She vyas accompanied by
Miss Add Kell am.
Mrs. William Walker is copdnod
to hor bod, suffering from thocffocts
of a sovero full received on hist
Thursday. She thought a oliuir had
been placed for her ut tho dinner la
bio and sat on the floor instead of
tho ohuir, which wus a terrible jar
to her feeble old frame. She was
lifted, to the bed and is snfforing very
much from the soreness and pains ip
her back- She is very old and weak
and t er friends foaiful she may novel*
rocovor from the shock. Ho liopo,
however, that she may rally from
this ns she Inis from so many pros*

Somo time sinco a Mr. Leggett
contracted with au Augusta factory
for a million barrel staves to he oh*

estate. He proourod board near by
and apparently set to work. After
remaining two or threo weeks ho

ing to Hawkinsvillo to hire hands.
No more has been henrd or soon of

wanting to soo him to got Hie board
money duo him. A Mr. Pueket who
was engaged with Mr. Loggot in the
business, has now omitruclod with
tho same Arm to get the staves and
Messrs. (Jonhrun and Pulford will

We uro glad that the agony is over
in this oounty and that Bacon dclo
gates were oleoted by such a largo
majority. The ineu of both sides
wore certainly very onthusiustic for
the creeks wore iu a swimming stuto
and tho rivur had to be crossed iu
buttouux. JFo have heard of ninny
amusing incidents in connection with
this subject. One enthusiast got up
at one o’clock to start to Dublin but
was Bqueichod in tho attempt. He
evidently wanted to got a good stand.
Tho continuous hard rains arc
proving very disastrous to tho crops
and tlio farmers uro very blue over
this prospect. Tho wind has al
so douo much misohiif—-blowing
down tho corn and fences. Tho day

The Swift Specific Company have the
most endubitable evidence as to the cure
of Cancer by thei: famous medicine, S S S.
Among others, John S. Morrow, an old
and highly esteemed citizen of Florence,
Ala., makes the following statement us to
the merits of this remedy.
I have been suffering with a Cancer in
my right car, for. about three years. I
tried vario
varions remedies and was treated
with Iodide of Potash,- which' produced
rheumatism. My, feet and legs were great
ly swollen, so' that I could * hot walk.
About one year ago I was induced to try
Swift’s Specific, which soqn removed the
trouble in my limbs, and my rheumatism
is now entirely gone and my Cancer is
steadily improving. being better
