Counts-Manly. Cards are out for the marriage of Mr. Thomas Jeter Counts,formerly of Union, now of Atlanta, to Miss ltuth Aline Manly, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. 1*. Manly, of Atlanta, Ga.

Miss Manly is one of Atlanta's charming, attractive and acoonr.plislnd young ladies. We trust their life will be full of connubial bliss.

We have reference to the practice of "initiating" the new scholais, by bumping them ai.d subjecting them to other ind.gnities. This will certainly result in set ions trouble if it is not sloped. Tliere came near being troub'e from this busimss last week. We hope that there will l>e no more of this kiud of thing in our schools. . ^25,000 Subscription, ^ $12,500 Check.
