THE t®RN OF THE TIDB.
The harbor lights are dim with smoke
Which hangs about the under sky,
And wraps the simple fishei'folk .
In lurid mist as they go
Along the shore the vagi
Keen twilight Mswaroe wan; sea'/ /
Far out; steer thither, watgh with me
The tender stars come out on high.”
The sky is deepening overhead;
The sail flaps loose; the wind has died:
The water laps the boat like lead; Mg
Faint ripples jplash against the side S
And shimmer with unearthly lightf *
The harbor lights are out of sight; fn
We drift into a starless night
Together on the ebbing tide.

Two Weefcs—A Quarantine, Declared
By Request of General Gordon Thero Wll
Bo Neither Ball Nor Banquet.
The plans for the inauguration of Gen
eral John B. Gordon as governor of
Georgiahave been somewhat changed.
On account of the death of his brother;
who was more than a brother to him,
General Gordon has requested that there
be no ball and no banquet. In conse
quence, the ceremonies attending the in
auguration will be confined to the mili
tary display and the assembling of the
confederate veterans.; ;
General Fitzhugh Lee, governor of
Virginia, will be- present, and will take
part in the ceremonies. Accompanying
Win wi\l come the Stuart Horse Guard of
Richmond. This command Will be the
special guests of the Governor’s Horse
Guard.
In 1883 the Governor’s Horse Guard
went to Richmond to act as the special
escort of General Lee at a grand reunion
of troops dusgagjthe Virginia- state fair.
On amving/itjNichmond it was found
that the name of 'every member of the
Governor’s IIorse^Guard had been placed
at the three social clubs of Richmond, a
compliment-extended only to the Gov-,
ernqr’s Horse Guard by the members of
the Stuart Horse Guard. . '
, When the command arrives in Atlanta
it will be quartered and mounted by the
Governor’s Horse Guard.
Within the next few the commit
tee in charge of the inauguration will
have their plans fully matured, and will
then announce them to the jpublic. j

Courier; J. D. Jervy, collector of the

pers. Mr. C. T. Mason, the inventor of
the harvester, was present, but did not
operate the machine.
The test occurred at 11 o’clock in a
three acre field about one mile from
town. The party of visitors spent half
an hour in examining 'the curious me
chanical devises in, the Mason work shop,
and the inventor explained the .structure
of the harvester, then it was brought out
and two mules was hitched to it. The
essential principle of the machine is the
operation into the cotton plants of a
number of*stems or fingers which are so
constructed as to discriminate between a
flbrus and a non-fibrus. These stems
are small hollow cylinders about an inch
in diameter and about eight inches long.
In the surface are punched a multitude
of keen teeth, which are set in elliptical
shaped openings. The points of the
teeth being in the openings, a e protect
ed by , the sides of the openings and
being introduced into the cotton, plants
pass harmlessly over the leaves and open
bolls, and sicze promptly on the open
cotton, transfer it to boxes on the sides
of the machine, whence it is converted
by carrier belts to bags, which are sus-
'pended at the back of the machine.
The stems rotate aroundjthe cylinders at.
the same rate of speed! as the plants
move backward through tjie machine,
