RAILROADS.

This is certainly an era of Rail-
roads, railroad building and railroad
projecting. Our country is being
cut up into net work Of railroads,
and if all the railroads are built that
are being chartered and proposed,
every town and village in the land
will have railroad. They are good
things to have, and no town should
be without one. The Augusta and
Chattanooga Railroad to be built
via Gainesville and Ellijay has been
let to the contractors and is ninety
miles shorter than any other route
between Chattanooga and Augusta.
Rome is going to build the most
important link yet, from there to
Decatur. Atlanta is discussing the
feasibility and importance of road
from there to the Mississippi river.
Thus it seems Marietta is getting
roads on all sides of her, and it be-
hOoves us to be up and doing some
thing in this direction too. A road
to Austell should be built from this
place, the charter has been granted,
and by its construction we might ex-
tend it further on and reach terri
tory that would add somewhat to our
prosperity.

NEWSPAPERS AND PROSPERITY.

The Richmond Wing, in an article
on Newspapers as an Index of
City's Progress, uses this language
When we glance over the columns
of a newspaper from a city we have
never seen, and see its advertising
columns filled with fresh and attrac-
tive advertisements of furnaces, foun-
dries, machine shops, manufacturing
establishments, Wholesale and retail
stores, hotels, etc, we Immediately
say to ourselves, if we do not speak
it aloud: That must be very live
ly town, and business must be in
very hourishing condition there.
Moreover, its inhabitants must be an
enterprising, progressive, go-ahead
people. That is no doubt a good
place to live" And il we happen to
De thinking about changing our loca-
ton, our minds are at once directed
to that city as desirable place to
locate. Indications OF thrift and
prosperity make a favorable impress
sion upon every one, and in settling
down to business every thrifty, enter
prising man is attracted to a commu-
nifty where those characteristics pre-
dominate.

GEORGIA GLEANINGs.

In Livingston district, Floyd coun-
ty, Tom Green, a colored man, was
caught in the belt Of cotton gin
and crushed to death.
Joseph W. Rapp, Chief Delivery
Clerk in the Atlanta post Office, has
been arrested for opening letters and
taking out the contents. He was
caught with decoy letter.
Last Tuesday, James Carlton, of
Athens, father of Hon. H. II. Carl
ton, 81 years of age, and also on that
day cast his ballot for his youngest
son for Congress.
The Governor has ordered the
bonds Of the Marietta and North
Georgia railroad cancelled as soon as
Judge Fain's restraining order is re-
moved.
The Supreme Court of Georgia
has dedided, in the case of johnson
vs.. Bradstreet, that commercial agen-
cies are responsible for false reports,
in actions for libel, though there may
have been no malicious intent.
A Walton county farmer, W. P.
Parker, sold some cotton in Athens
last week, and the buyer paid him
s335-every one of them silver dol
lars as new as hot cake. He had a
time in getting his pile of wealth
home.
A. o. Harper, one of Elberton's
most energetic and enterprieing
young farmers, has made this year,
on lot OF thirty eight acres, thirty
bales of cotton. The field was pre-
pared and cultivated with one mule.
On one half the lot he fertilized with
compost manufactured at home, and
on the other half he used cotton seed
compound manufactured at Elberton,
200 pounds to the acre. He failed
to get good stand, and had it been
an average cotton year, he is satisfied
he would have made thirty-fve or
forty bales on the same land.
The personal property of Mrs.
Elizabeth Teasley, deceased, was sold
at Alpharetta Thursday by her ad-
ministrator. Among the things sold
was an old triangular French piano,
which DIR. Randall, Mrs. Teasley' q
father, bought 90 years ago for her.
He was then citizen of Marietta.
Miss Randall carried the piano to
Cumming 46 years ago. She then
married Enoch Latt, and when Mil

her husband moved to Alpharetta
