Douglasville was well represent
ed al the Austell camp meeting.
George Griffith, Howard Winters
and Willie Pool, wit i their ’’best
jiiris” were among the many who
wot, and thee three young men say
it was the best camp meeting of the
season.
Where do ail of these neatly fif
ing new fall suits come from The
(mas clothing department of 8. A.
McHreath & Bro,
Ben Walkin*, who by the way is
one of the beet farmers in the county
brought the first bale of cotton of
the season to Douglasville last Sat
urday. The bale was classed as good
ordinary, and sold to S, N. Dorsett
£ Co, for nine and three fourth cents.
"We hope Ben Walkv » may make s
thousand bales and get all that it is
worth.
You will find at J. P, Wagon’s a
splendid assortment of Men’s an i
Boys’ suits in the latest styles and of
tbe best matoral manufactured espe
cially fol this concern by one of the

Tbe President, after a resting »««-

tu-ned to Washington with his health
much improved. We have an car in
that direction listening to be called
to some important mission. Hur
rah for Cleaveland, and the appoint

Tbe crop of Douglas county is

V pected three weeks ago. Tbe cotton

\ the beat of Judge* 10 or 15 per ct
Wince that time. The farmer the Mer

The opponents of prohibition in
; o wn have filed a petition for the
emoval of the cases against the sa- <
oon men to the United States j
Courts on the ground that the pro- I
libitiun law is repugnant to the
Civil-right law.
The Amercus Recorder (whose
editor, we bolieve, is an old bache or)
is in a state of trepidation on ac
count of the“mind-reading” powers
of that Macon young lady. He is
afraid that all the young ladies .in
the State u ill learn the tricky and
apprehends that the next thing
will be “to tell what a man is doing
up town after night.” £f the single
men are so greatly alarmed, what
should be the state of mind of the
married ones'?
The following is the 7th Resolu
tion of the Ohio Democratic plat
form, adopted Aug. 21, 1885:
“The Democratic party iw, as it
always has been, opposed to sump
tuary legislation and unequal taxa
tion in any farm, and it is in favor
of the largest liberty of private c n-
duct consistent with the public wel
fare and the rights of others,and of
regulating the liquor traffic and pro
viding against tha evils re.mliing
therefrom by a judicious and proper
ly graded license system.” - _ '
On Aug. 26, the Pennsylvania
democracy, in convention assembled
at Harrisburg, adopted, in ipsissimis
verbis, the foregoing resolution and
re-affirmed it as declaring the doc
trine of the party in that Mate.
The recent rains have flooded the
rice fields aoout Savannah, and plan
ters estimate their loss at least one
fourth ot the entire crop.

Ata meeting of the Baptis Sun
day School of Douglasuilie of which
the deceased was a devoted worthy
member and constant attendant, the
following preamb'e aud resolutions
ware unanimously adopted.
John JM. Edge.
Acting supertindant.
Whereas it has pleased our Heav
enly Father to remove from ovr
midst our beloved comerade Atfilda
Smith whose lif.t was full of Chris
tian work and faithful devotions to
averyinterest of onr school; and
while we recognise in her demise a
sore calamity to tbe school aud au
almost irrepable loss to her class and
a most insufferable grief to her im
mediate lamily. Yet groping in
sorrow and sadr.esa beneath the low
ering clowds. that -u sudenly Veils
the oherfttl and bright form of our
Aw.lda, we s<e through the mist of
its soluble skies me «lory of our mas
ter. and the triu i-p ,s of our friends.
And whereas we are assured from
iht unweiiug fidelity of her lite
aud the Christian resignation of her
death, that has pkused the master IO
truuspiant her to a laud of endh sa
bliss, where she may forever enjoy
tbe glorious rewards ot her faitulul
labors. Then fore be it resolved that
1 in the death of Awdda society has
1 lost one of its britest ornaments, the
1 church a most faithful member, tbe
' school an ea ruest and ever devoted
fri.nd, and cur class a most congeni
al and beloved member. Resolved
i tuat we will cherish her exam pi*.
. treasure her memory end ever ewu
i late tbe gyoduess of her life. Kes
f olved that the undivided sympathy of
t our school be and tbe same is hereby
. watered to the believed fr.mily; and
. that a copy of this preambi aud resc-
* Intions be spread on the minutes of
