There are but two active, working Granges o» the Patrons ot Husbandry in this county at present. The rest are what are tetmed “dormant.” Coining down through the dearth of news to £od the hard pan facts ot an item is more than equalled by the ease with which it is disapproved. -i The trade in holidav goods in this place this year has been equal to the average, although not quite ao much money bas changed hands on account of it. __ The size oi the river iu the way of a volume ot water is such as to preclude the possibility of soon securing communication with the outside world.__ The winter promi-es to be nnnanaUy mild and open, and not many of the extreme rigors which we experienced a year ago are likely to reach us this seaaou.

OUK CHURCHES, The Churches of the town tre being well attended at present. The revival meetings in the C. P Church have been a source'o! great good to the religious element ot this commuuiiv. At the close of the Q isrlerh meet* iug of the M. E Church a protracted meeting will begin, which promises to be a season of much good to the cnurch. The funeral services of George E. Bailey will be conduced b\ Kev. P. H Evans, at 'he Court House next Seb hath at 10:30 a. in. All are invited to at lend. The at'cond quarterly meeting of the M. E.

Don't forget the Ten Cent Store The horrible death ot George K. Bailey, on Thursday of last week at Wlteatlaud, t.vIdle engaged in loading slock, was seemingly tragic enough tit its character to chill the blood ot the most hardened His head was completely severed from his body by the moving cars.ud his teatures destroyed beyond the power ot recoguitiou. But there yet remains to be told a more pathetic incident in connection with Itis death. On Friday night when his body was brought home tor burial his wile gave birth to a babe who can never appieciate the sorrow under s bich it cause into the world, or the double agony which made its poor mother pray for death. Mr. Bailer was one of our moat active business men attd bis loss will long be full in this community, where he was for many years a leading feature lie was of more real value ’o the farmiug element of Ibis county than ad»zt*n other men, for the reason that he alwnys Iurnished them a good and prt.fi-able home market for all their surplus stock, and vrhile not a man of wealth himself, he was in the fullest seuse ot the word, a public benefactor. Ilis poor wile and tour orphan children have the warm sympathy ot the entire community in their greet sorrow, but the consolations which they receive at this time cannot heal broken and bleeding beans Time al» e must bring to them that It-eiing that in this a« in all earthly affairs “He doelh all Ihiltgs well *

gEWSP VPER NOTES. The Crawfordtvillo Mur eeeme to grew more attractive each week. The Bloomfield Democrat has very able editorial matter lately. Almost as good ae we could d o ourselves. All oar exchanges lire loaded down to the guards with holiday advertise meats, and business la brisk with the boy* generally. The Brasil Democrat ia now one of onr beat exchange*. The paper i* not only a credit to tho town tot it re fleet* letter upon the profession ea well. The Columbus Hsrald doe* not ellow cuta or oireu* poater type hi it* advertising^ columns, and a* e reeelt It i* one ot the handsomest paper* in the 8tete. The Davie** Count v Democrat pabllshed e very interesting hietory of the newspaper* oil ttiat County in i>i last ia*ue The mutter waa exceedingly good and the handling excellent. The Washington doily 4*acetic is c welcome visitor to this office and each day gives mere promise ol brooming one of the flxed fmnltattooe of tbet dty. The city editor, Cha*. G. Sefrit, is one «f the coming journalist* ot this part ot the State. A Uappv New Year to all, Tkh c*»it Stoic.

BA1LK0AU RACKET. The u-presentaiive btwiaew men of the i»w n met in the office of Miller ft Richardson on Wednesday morning to take some Me id toward raieiog a earn of money in notes to enable It. G. Hervey to complete the railroad to ibis place. The attendance area fair but there seemed to be a want of alee rity on tbe part of those present in the way ol signing the notes, and tho uteeiing finally adjourned of Hs own accord without having accomplished but tittle in the wav ot raising the amount required. There seems to be a laudable ambition on the part of some of our business men to do all they can »o secure to Petersburg rail-, road communication, hut on the other hand a respectable majority seem to hang back and do nothing. This don dit ion ol affairs will hare to be changed it we ewr expect to secure the benefits a railroad would give ua. Committees are funny things, and the amount of amusement they can put into an old dry programme is simply marvelous to those who imagine that Inn comes from au altogether different source.
