BT JOHN 47. OOWSON.
CnAPTSH 11.
No sooner had the boat reached
the wharf, and daylight was fully
come, than Johnny stepped oIT the
boat, and walked up into the city,
and wandered about from street to
street not knowing what iu the world
to do.
Poor little Johnny! Without any
friend in the world, bereftof his only
protector, alone in a strange city, he
was indeed desolate.
At last he came to a harness ma
ker's shop, and seeing the man in
there at work, he walked in and ask
ed him,
“Plc-isn, sir, can you tell me where j
I can find my uncle John ?”
“What’s his other name ?”
“I don’t know, sir.”
“Well i Get out! I don’t know
him, and I’ve got no time to meddle
with children.”
Disappointed, he went his way
with tears in iiis eyes.
Next, ho came to a place where
there was a largo round chimney,
with smoke coming out at the top, l
and seeing a door open, he walked ;
in. There was a great deal of noise i
inside, and he saw a man working at
a furnace. After a while tho noise
ceased, and Johnny walked up to the
man and asked him the same ques
‘ on that lie had asked the harness
maker.
“Has your uncle any other name ?”
asked the man.
“I don’t know, sir.”
“I can’t tell you anything about
your uncle John, then,” said the
man, and he resumed his work.
Johnny then passed by a crowd of
Bchi 01-boys. Some of them laughed
at him; one of them threw his hat in
the mud; while others threw pebbles
t him, some of which struck him.
Dinner time passed, and he was
T hurt, ry, but no one spoke a kind
word to him; all were indifferent or
harsh.
■Cut the little fellow still persevered
although he found no encouragement
whatever. He told his story over
and over, but it seemed to bring - no
sympathy.
It was nS-ar sundown, when John
ny was standing near the corner of a
street, that—sudd enl y—every thing
seemed to dance before his eyes, and
fade irom his sight.
There were a pair of horses that
had become frightened at some noise
in the street, and running past they
had trampled the poor boy under
their feet, a wheel of the vehicle, to
which die horses were a' tached, pass
ed over his arm, and 110 lay upon
the sidewalk, apparently dead.
A large crowd gathered in the
street, and a tall full-faced gentleman
ordered some men to carry him to
his residence.
So that when Johnny was restored
to consciousness, which was about
ten o’clock at night, he found himself
in a comfortable bed.

The South Georgia Agricultur
al and Mechanical Association
held its Annual Fair at Thoinas
ville last week ; our exchanges
say it was, in every particular a
magnificent success, eclipsing all
its former efforts as well as the
State Fair. The Savannah News
remarks:
“A unique feature of the Thomas
ville Fair, and one of the most in
teresting, is the display made by
the different Granges of Thomas
and adjoining counties. The ri
valry between these organizations
lias been friendly but sharp, and
the result is one of the largest and
best agricultural displays ever
made in the State. Two of these
we are told~and perhaps
others —each occupy an entire
building, so numerous and so va
ried are the products the have
entered. The introduction of this
feature was an exceedingly happy
tliought upon the part of the oili
cers of the association, and it is
one, xve predict, which will be
pretty generally imitated in the
future.’”
A mammoth steer from Oregon is
already en route for the Centennial.
It stands nineteen hands, or six font
four inches, measures twenty feet
from tip to tip, and weighs 5,000
pounds.
