Atlanta, Jan. 15,1887.
Couutry Weeklies.
The Atlanta Constitution has
seen fit to give its Country Cousins
this kind of a send off for 1887.
The weekly press of Georgia, af
ter having taken the holiday vecess
to which tradition entitles it, is a-
guin in the field ruudy to do its full
duty toward the people. No town
i3 complete without a newspaper,
and no man with proper souse, with
home pride, will neleot to patronize
an institution which advertises his
community to the world,. The
country press of Georgia ,1ms been
indifferently supported; and hence
has not come up to the mark which
better support would warrant.
People who complain that.the local
paper is not good enough should firs'
ascertain whether their own names
arc on the right side of the sub
scription book. The editors are
starling out on their new year’s
work full of energy and hope, und
if they fall by the wayside it will be
becuusoof unappreciative constitu
encies which have failed in main
taining their own self-respect.
Newspaper Law.
Any person who has taken a pa
per regularly from the postoffice—
whether direotod to his mi hi e or
another’s or whether he is a subscri
ber or not—is responsible for the
payment.
The court have decided that re
fusing to take newspapers or perodi
cals from the postoffice or removing
and leaving them uncalled for is
prima-facie evidence of intentional
lruud.
If any person orders his paper
discontinued, ho must pay all ar
rearages or the publisher can con
titiue to send it until payment is
made, and collect the whole amount.
An notion for fra'id can be insti
tnted against any person, whether
he is responsible in a financial way
or not, who refuses to pay his sub
scription.
Postmasters who do not notify the
publisher, when a subscriber fails to
take his paper out of the office to
which it is addressed, for four weeks
ure liable to the - publisher for the
subscription.
12 SHILOH'S CATARRH REMEDY
—a positive cura for Catarrh 1 , Diptheriu
Canker Mouth. By Hicks & Co., Dublin
For the past two or three seasons
eats sown duriug the fall months
have fared badly from the effects of
the hard freezes. It was so very dry
the early part of last fall that grain
was not sown in many pluccjS until
December, and luckily not very much
was planted during that month, for
unfavorable reports are coming hi
from divers quarters. Some have
been quite busy for the past few days
putting iu grain, but we fear that a
good many have failed to put in a
sufficient quantity of this valuable
and almost indispensable crop. It is
said that oats sown anv time during
the present month will produce
tolerably fair yield, and if this be the
case it is not yet too late to sow. It
is certainly worth the experiment.

14 SHILOH'S CURE will immediately

■•gfll
Bronchitis. By Hicks tie Co . Dublin Ga.
It luis been suggested, utij
we
think wisely, that the city authorities
would do the right thing to have the
census of the town taken. It would
cost but a small sum of money for H
would only take one mini two or
three days to accomplish it. There
would certainly he butffew tax pay
ers to object to the small amount ex
pended in ascertaining the popula
tion of our town. All that we have
heard speak of it favor a census of
the town being taken, and the an
thorities could, with little trouble,
ascertain the wishes of the pcopl-< on
the subject. Lot some member of
the body take steps m the matter,
uud do so at the next meeting.

RESOLUTIONS
Of P. & A. IV1. Lodge on the Death
ot’ Hardy Alligood.
We the commilteo appointed to draft res
olutions relative to the death of Brother
Hardy Alligood submit the following pro
amble and resolutions;
Whereas it „has pleased the Supromc
Architect of tlie universe to summons from
this terrestrial Lddgo of F. & A. M. to the
Grand Lodge abovo our beloved brother,
Hardy Alligood. Brother Alligood was
born in Scrlvon county, Georgia, in the
year 1818 and moved with his parents to
Laurens county when quite young. At an
early age he connected .himself with the
Baptist church at Rocky creek and re
muined witli that churcli until the consti
tution of Mount Carmel church. He was
one of the membets forming the constltu
lion of the latter church in which he was
soon ordained a deacon and held that po
sition until the duy of his death, wide!
occurred on the 18th day of July 1S86*. at
the advanced age of .Seventy-three years.
The hour glass made its last revolution
and mortality ceased witli our brother.
And whereas in the dentil of Brother
Alligood masonry has lost a bright light
and our fraternal home is loft dark and
desolate; and;whereas in the loss of our
beloved brother we are reminded of the
mystic tie in the most touching and tender
manner; und whereas iu severing this tie.
we all feel pained and sad; .and wlicsous
the character and conduct of. our brother
wus suqh us to commend ldtn to all and
leave behind him the highest record of a
consistent masonic life.
Therefore toe it resolved 1st. That we
submit in patience to the Divine will in
this dispensadon of Providence and hum
bly beseech our G.nind Master that we may
he prepared for u like summons by sqare
lug our conduct by tho rule oi faith and
practice given in the Divine word.
Resolved 2nd. That while we rnouru
our brother's loss, yet we are consoled by
the reflection thut lie is culled from labor
on earth to refreshment in Heaven and
thut wu shall meet him in the celestial eity
and receive with 1dm instructions from
tho Great Architect.
Resolved 3rd. That though our own
sorrow at the loss is a burden heavy and
grievous, our hearts go out in sympathy
to the bereaved relatives and tender them
the condolence of masonic sympathy And
fraternal love, and commend them to our
Master whose eye is ever upon the
needy and whose ear is ever open to their
cry
Resolved 4th. That wc dedicate a page
of our journal to the memory of our be
loved brother and that a copy of these res
olutions be inscribed tnercon
Resolved 5th. That the lodge lie draped
in mourning and that the brethren wear
the usual badge of mourning thirty duys.
Resolved fltli. That a copy of these pro
ccedings be furnished the family of our
deceased brother, and that a copy be fur
nished the Duar,in Post und Die Dublin
Gazette, with a request thut iLey publish
the same. Respectfully submitted.
