Farm Facts.


Col. Primus Jones. of DOugherty county,
counts on a bale of new cotton by July 20.
The cotton outlook for Cobb county is
much better than many had hoped for.
From all over the county comes the glad
tidings that good crop is growing.
Up to the present the crop reports gen.
orally from Forsyth county are reason
ably favorable. A few localities have
been without rain for ten days, and these
are needing a good shower. From some
points excellent corn prospects are re-
ported, while the cotton is said to be
growing finely and fruiting. Favorable
seasons for two weeks longer Will insure
a fair yield of corn.

Runaway.

On Tuesday evening last II team in
charge of Mr.. ThOS SwaiIcr of near this
town, was badly wrecked 1t appears
that Mr.. Swaiicr in company with II
young lady was driving up Main street,
when he accidently ran into IL pile of
lumber in front of the large town hall
that is in course of erection on corner of
Main and Academy streets, causing the
animal to become frightened and to
run away. Mr.. $, was thrown out, and
the young lady was dragged for consid-
cradle distance, yet fortunately neither
sustained serious injury. The frightened
steed was stopped when near Nathan
Zigler's stove store, but not until the
vehicle was badly demolished, it having
been upturned and hurled along the
street behind the heels of the Infatuated
beast. The streets, it seems, rs usual,
were rather dark, and but short dis
lance below where the obstruction was
placed there was an exceeding bright,
light, thus causing this gentleman who
was driving, perhaps, at II brisk pace to
pass the bright light into sudden dark
ness, to not notice the lumber pile,
which caused the above results. How
ever, though the results are any thing
but to be desired, yet it is fortunate that
the occupants escaped 50 luckily from
this perilous position in which they
were placed, without sustaining more
bodily bruises further than few
scratches.

he was in fair way of making an expert
rider on the two wheeled vehicle. But
the greatest amusement he finds, is to get
young boys to try their skill, and it is
real laughablc to see them tumbling
around the ground. Sometimes the boy
is on top of the machine, but oft times
the machine is ON top of the boy. They
seem to enjoy it, and old bicycle makes

Temperance.
WHAT DRUNKENNESS MEANS.

What does drunkenness involve?
1t means that to thousands life be-
comes one long disease. Solomon
told us the truth three thousand wears
ago: ''Who hath woe? who hath
sorrow? who hath contentious? who
hath babbiing? who hath wounds
without cause? who hath redness of
eyes? They that larry long at the
wine; they that go to seek mixed
wine. At last it biteth like serpent
and stingeth like an adder De-
lirium tremens--that inconceivably
CHASTITY and agonizing illness-is but
one of Gods executioners upon ex-
cess. The fact that nation is adj
dicted to drink means that the health
of myriads will be ruined; it means
that myriads of children with diseas-
ed bodies and fatuous minds and
depraved impulses will be, in the aw-
ful language of an old preacher,
snot born into the world, but dam
med into the world - as idiots, or
cripples, or as all but predestined
drunkards; the curse of nations
the curse of their neighbors, and the
curse of themselves; curse to the
very ideal of humanity, which they
drag and degrade; poisoning its very
life blood, and barring it's progress to
the great goal of better deeds. Nor
is it only the bodies of men that suf-
fer; it is their souls. Powerless for
his deliverance, the conscience of the
drunkard is not powerless for his tor
ture. Robert Burns, Charles Lamb
and Harley Coleridge had uttered the
CIV of men who had thus been swept
over the cataract. The Spartans,
when they wished to turn their chill
dren from intemperance, used to show
them physical degradation in the
shape of drunken harlots. The spir-
itual catastrophe of Il man who has
given himself ever to the bondage of
drink, is that when he RECEIVERS from
the degradation of the animal, it is
to feel the anguish of the lost soul.
This is the reason why, year by year.
drink not only crowds the workhouse
with paupers, and the gaols with
felons, asylums with lunatics, and
the hospitals with the deceased: but
it also swells, more than any othel
cause, week by week, and year by
year, the lost, and those who, through
the awful gate of suicide, rush witt
, rude impulse into the presence o
their God.-1rchbishop Fdrrar.

RELIGION AT HOME.

1t is laughable to see one hunting

while overlooking such opportunities
which they carry with them wherever

prayer, Il hearty amen came from
