homestead, which generations ago was founded
by the Beurcys and stands a titling representa
tion of that lordly southern life peculiar only to
our land and clime.
The marriage was witnessed only by the rel
atives ‘of the bride and groom. No young couple

brighter promises of happiness and success.

With clasped hands over the sacred altar, these
hearts were blended into one and now may their !
lives bow peacefully onward, cloudless and <
stormless, until they mingle with that ciystal j
ocean, whose waves leave the bright shores of I
the great hereafter.— Barnesville Mail.

The Kindlon of a Pastor—Considerable Nickn
Dangers from Night Hunters, Etc.
Fortoon, Ga., October 18.—At a meeting held
at Ml Ziou church Saturday mornirg for the
choice of a pastor for the ensuing year, Rev. C.
A. Martin, the present pastor, was unanimously
re-elected to fill the place. He accepted the call.
In addition to the regular service of Saturday and
Sunday a night .service was held on Saturday
night, all LuJPng conducted bv the pastor.
Mr. J. It. Thompson, wh lias been on the sick
list for several days, is somewhat improved.
Mrs. James Gant returned from your city yes
terday, where she had been spending several I
days for medical treatment. Ordinarily our com-
munity would not support a physician, though j
we have had a good deal of sickness recently. |
Mr. T. W. Fortson, who has had a severe spell-
of sickness, has almost entirely recovered.
Much danger is incurred by our farmers from
night hunters carrying torches during this dry
season, and many of our neighbors, therefore,
have prohibited all hunting on theii premises.
Mr. J. R. Thompson had a lot of corded wood to
get burned the other night by the hunters. There
is no redress, for the trespassers were not known.
It is a good time now to dig seed cane and
bank it away and pour water on it to prevent it
from drying up.
Got ton is nearly all picked and it has tu ned
out short, as the other crops have done. Wo
must curtail expenses, husband our resources,
and strike out again for unojther year of labor
and self-denial.

Genxva, Ga., October 18.—The presbytery of

with much pleasure by all our people.
We had the pleasure of entertaining quite a

equipped, which will be in a day or two, the
survey will be commenced The building of
this road seems to be a certainty. The gentle
men at the head of it are men who never go at
anything of the kind blindly, and if they receive
the proper kind of treatment fr om the people
along the proposed route the road will certainly
be built.
Death In Florence.
Mrs. Jones, an aged resident of Florence, died
the latter part of last week at the residence of
her son, Judge Harrison. She was a noble
Christian woman and had many frieud who
deeply regret her death.
The Lumpkin Independent has the following
in reference to her death : “ Mrs. Jones was one
of the purest and best women that we ever knew.
Her every day life was that of a consistent Chris*
tian, and she leaves to her son and daughter the
priceless inheritance of a good name. Mild and
gentle iu her nature, she was ever ready to min
ister to the wants of the sick and afflicted, and
her loss will be greatly felt in Florence. She
leaves two children—Mr. Henry Jones And Mrs.
J. T. Harrison, and a sister, Mrs. Lizzie Williford 4
besides a large circle of friends to mourn her
loss.”

The Tenth Georgia Regiment.
The surviving members of the old Tenth
Georgia regiment will have a reunion at the
Hotel Lanier, in Macon, on the 27th instant.
Generals Lougsticct, ‘McLaws and Cumming
arc expected to be present. As there was one
company from Columbus and one from Chatta
hoochee county in the Tenth Georgia it is desi
rable that they shou'd be well represented at
the reunion, and we have been requested to
call the attent ion of the surviving members to
the date fixed for the occasion. The state fair
will be in progress at that time, and those who
attend will undoubtedly enjoy it.
Of all shows at present on the road, none can
boutl a greater celebrity than this excellent com
bination In the first place the manager, whose
enterprise has become a household word through
out the continent, lias hever in a single instance
committed any breach of faith with the public.
This fact couplod with the intrinsic merit of the
entertainment, is quite sufficient to explain why
it is that Doris’ circus never fails, either in town
or country,*t • draw vast audiences, and what is
better, to please and satisfy them. The circus
company this year is considerably strengthened
and augmented by the services of all
first-class artists on the continent—and their
.performances are • itrikiug and novel—
calculated to throw young people into
ecatacies, and to produce wond* r
and admiration in the minds of those of maturer
years. Already the excitement of this great show
that is to be iu Columbus, on Saturday, October !
23d, is making itself manifest among our citizens. |
Everybody is making preparations to go and (
take all their children. Too much can not be i
sc id to urge people to attend this show if they j
desire to see the largest and finest menagerie,
circus and theatre combined. You will positively j
see the great and only bareback rider, Mr. James j
Robinson, troup of twelve brawny Turks, Turkish ;
knife throwers, troupe of French bicyclists, i
Siberian roller skaters, the best male and female j
bareback riders, more gymnasts, move I

funny clowns, dens of rare and wild animals j
perfum ing elephants, performing black and j
white camels, troupe of trick stallions, grand j
street pageant, open dens of performing wild t
animals, exposed free on the public streets. This
will be the most gorgeous street demonstration !
ever given. The splendid and classic entertain- j
rnent is wholly exempt from the inelegancies and
coarseness too frequently permitted in most tent
exhibitions. In this great show there is nothing
ever presented that a gentleman would hesitate
to carry his family to witness, or to which the
most exacting could take exception.

St. Paul Church.
On Sunday morning last at 11 a. m. Rev. Wal
ker Lewis preached in 8t. Paul church the sec
ond of his scries of sermons on “Immortality and
the Soul.” It was a very able and interesting
discourse and was greatly enjoyed by the large
congregation present.
At the evening services the pulpit was occu
pied by Rev. Arthur Harris. Mr. Harris is quite
a young man, and is still a student at college,
but his sermon was an unusually fine effort for
one of his years. It was well conceived and de
livered, and held the close attention of the con-
grega’ion to the last. The young preacher bids
fair to be a very useful man to the church iu tho
years to come. \
There were services at St. Paul last night aud
there will be services again to-night. The meet
ing will probably be protracted through the
week, as consieerable interest Is being mani
fested.
