MY VISIT.

My mind was made up and hastily gath
.ring together few things and taking my
yalise in hand | soon found myself at the
railway station and aboard the cars bound
for visit TO my newly married friends from
whom had just received news that they
had Just secured a cottage and had fixed up
quite home nest, and by the last mail
they had so kindly remembered their old
bachelor friend as to write letter asking me
to make them a visit. | smiled to myself
many times as l would recall the past, and
how very unsophistieated they must be and
how awkward they must appear as host ana
hostess, but soon the brakeman calls out
Marietta" and as ! had sent no letter TO
herald my coming, | set out alone Tor
street and in less time than | have been
talking TO you | was being received by
both Fred and his little treasure OF wife,
who were Just preparing to sit down to tea
in the dearest, cosiest little dining room
twas ever my fortune to enter. A chair was
soon placed for their visitor and friend, and
surely no one will take otfense when say
| was never so elegantly entertained in my
lie-and again, no one must laugh when
acknowledge | was mentally resolving TO
hunt out a companion to sit opposite me at
the table and to prepare and arrange such
delicaces and tempting It'd bits, AS there
enjoyed, for Myra assures me she superln,
tends and directs every thing herself, and
surely everything was beyond compare,
and to he an invited guest in that house
was indeed an inestimable treat. 1t is in the
omestic affairs of every day lite, that re-
gain the best insight into true character.
j confided in my friends and asked them to
help me "set up an establishment like I'M
to theirs, which seemed to Inc little less than
an enchanted bower, even now as visions oil
the tempting rolls, biscuits, buckwheat
cakes and walfles which would almost melt
when put in my mouth, the delicate cakes,
delightful meats, and withall the happy
faces of Fred and his wife would remind
one of little harem where We could al
ways find comfort and rest, they both assur.
ed me of their hearty cooperation and l
shall long remember the smile that played
over Myras face when she assured me that
all would be well if | would always buy my
groceries from McClatchy's store, for they
have learned he keeps only the best OF Ba-

a Successful Farmer. !

lone of the most successful farmers in
Cobb county, is Mr.. II. G. Dunton. Five
or six years ago, he bought an old worn out
farm on time near Lost Mountain. Every
body laughed at the idea of him buying
such land He, also, had to buy his pro-
visions on time. He went to work and
in two or three years he paid the last dollar
of his indebtness He has brought his land
up to high state of productiveness and he
is prospecting. Last year lie made 800
bushels OF sweet potatoes, about $50 bush
els to the acre-he ''banked" them, and las
and is realizing from $100, $3.50 to $l.40
per bushel You can make your calcula-
ton and see what this pays him per acre
His other products raised on his farm in
increased his revenue. He has worked
perseverngly, which shows that there
is as much in the man as in the land. We
are always glad to make note of such evi-
dences of thrift.

srABBING ARRAY.
The Bloody Knife Plays Part.

On last Saturday night slabbing ARRAY
occurred about four miles from Marietta,
near Mr. John York's 1t seems that Mr..
J. w. Bankston and Mr.. George Shear
ouse had been paying their attentions to a
young lady living in the neighborhood
A derogatory remark in reference TO the
young lady was attributed to Mr.. Shear
ouse, which he emphatically branded ms u
falsehood Bankston, il seems, had vouch
ed for the truthiulness of the remark, and
on Thursday night, BaRkston went to Dr.
Heidi and called for Shearouse. He was
informed that he had retired, and that he
would have to SCI '''''' some other time
Gu Saturday nigLy they met at Mr.. John
Yorks house. Bankston called Shearouse
out on the public road and asked him if
he had said he told lie. Shearouse re-
piled IF you say that made such re-
mark you told Il lie. - Bankston then
caught hold of Shearouse and commenced
cutting him with Il pocket knife. Shear
ouse then grappled with his assailant and
threw him down and held him, and called
for help Some young men at the house
came to his assistance and separated them.
1t was found upon examination, that Shear
house had RECEIVED a cash across his throat,
one on his head one on his shoulder and
several stabs in the abdomen, all flesh
wounds and none of them considered dan
gerous
