The report of tho joint committee from the two Clubs, made by L. L. Waldrop, was received and committee discharged, the same ot which was published in last week’s pa per. We had several names added to our list at our last meeting, making 53 upon the roll in all. Our worthy and efficient member, Rev. Quigg, was with us, and contributed very liberally by giving us a nice little talk. The discus sion of the question was not so lively a contest as we sometimes have, but nev erthelcss interesting. Question tor our next regular meeting: “Should there he that dignity attached to agricultural pursuits as to oilier professions ?” We hope that there will be a general turn out ol both professional and those who aie tillers of the soil. 11. P, McNair, Sec. 100 Years. Mr. P. F. Jones, of this place, is agent for “Our First Century,’’ one cf the best books ever o fie rod to an American read er. [lt contains a pontilar descriptive potraiture of the momentous and absorb ing events of gient and important mili fury jjand naval nolories, and heroic exploits, achievement of American ora lory, celebrated criminal cases, trials, tragedies, Jfce.; wonderful phenomena of earth, air, ocean and Heavens ; discover ies and inventions; remarkable reforms and delusions and excitements, jubilees, ovations, pageants, ifcc., appalling public calamities, disasters, panics, Ac. The whole comprising ten books in one grand national volume, splendidly illustrated, with several hundred plates, portraits, Ac., by It. M. De vens. Give Mr. Jones a call, for ihe book is sold only by rubsi.ription, and he is the only agent for ltoekdale, DeKalb and Gwinnett comities. 13. w The exercises of the Conyers Female College were concluded Tuesday even ing last, w ith a grant! Sociable given by the generous [principals, the Miss Me- Finleys. The occasion was one of pleasantness and mirth, to both the old and the young, indeed everything tended to make the Sociable a success, and to cause all present to have a good time. Providence favored tho occasion with a refreshing shower on the afternoon proceeding, that changed lire atmos phere from a temperature that was almost unendurable to one of perfect pleasantness. In additon to the array of beauty and amiableness which Con- yers supports, we noticed the following from abroad : Miss Maggie Gibbs, Social Circle, Miss Eva'Langford, Watkinsville, Miss Nannie Zachry, Castle Mound, Miss Mamie Wood, Rockdale, Miss Lizzie Pope, Mounticello. Misses Kstell Wheltr and Nora Magill, Atlanta, each of whom added much to the happiness of the evening. The first floor was occupied by the juveniles, who indulged iu a game called, (I believe) ‘Twist-op-che-cation.’ The more sedate were on the second floor; some promenading, others sitting and I suppose discussing, ‘Centennial’ topics. Notwithstanding the general jubilee, some of the young men came down town next morning 'rather cross, and one of them (Jetf) was heard to re mark : ‘confound them Oxford chaps’. [COMMUNICATED.) Arkansas. Arkansas contains 52,198 square miles, or 33,406,720 acres. Was admitted into the Union June 15, 183 G. The soil is as varied as the surface, the greater part ot which is very rich and very fertile. The second present available wealth of Arkansns is her timber lands Pine, oak ot all kinds, walnut and black walnut, cypress, cedar and hickory of the best quality are found in various sections of the State. The timber of Arkansas is to-day worth more than the whole as sessed value of the State; and it stands aB that much unemployed capital waiting to be utilized. Stock raising is another industry that jau be followed here with! great profit. Arkansas is in the fruit belf ot the Uni ted Stales, and is attracting\especial at tention. It it the home of tho grape and paradiso for the appleNpd pear, cherries, plums, and all the snttjll fruits grow to perfection with only slight cul tivation. \ The government of the Stale is in good honest men’s hands.

J. P. Court, of the 47(ith District was in session on Friday last, A. M. Helms, Justice piesiding. The celebrated case of J. P. Smith vs Bell & Bryans took up the whole of the day in getting out the evidence. Court then adjourned till next day, at which time argument was concluded, and judgment dismissing suit was granted by the Court. Messrs. MJOalla and Reed attorneys for Plantiff, Judge Gleaton tor Defendants. Justice Court of the same list net, M. M. Bentley J. 11.,I 1 ., was in session on Sat urday. A case that attracted a great deal of attention was tried, it being a suit brought by J. K P. Crawford against J. Ham Walla'e, for eight dol* lirs, due as wages for hire of Crawford’s son. Defendant vVnllace admitted the amount due, but plead damages because Plaint iff violated contract in taking his son away before term of service exp’red. Defendant was represented by Judge O. W. G'eaton, and Plaintiff by Col. J. W. Pruett and by 1 1 i tnsel f proprira personea Speeches were made by counsel for both. parties. Mr. (J , the Plaintiff, also held the Court and audience spellbound by bis matchless eloquence, wit and hu mor, in a speech ol neatly two hours, that was telling on the Court and by standers, which resulted in a judgment for Plaintiff. “Yea, a Daniel—a second Daniel come to judgment.” The exercices of the Conyers Female College closed on Monday night with a public exhibilion, given by* Misses Mc- Kinley, and their pupils, assisted by some of the young tnen of town. Prof. Taylor with his violin, and A. M. Helms, Esqr,. with his voice, rendered great help. Miss MaGill’s playing the piano was highly entertaining. Want of spues will forbid us giving tin extended notice of one of the best—if not the very best school exhibition ever had in Conyers. Part first was musical, and was taken up in song and instrumental pieces, on piano and violin, tart second, In charades, songs and instrumental pieces. The young ladies and girls took part in the charades and “Dress Reform Convention,” acted well their parts The young men and boys did not exhibit either the skill, trailing, nor near the dramatic art as the ladies and girls. We wouid like to make special mention of all the young ladies that took part in the “Dress Reform Convention,” hut for rrasons heretofore mentioned must fore go the pleasure. Suffice it to say, that they must know that reform in dress, as well as other things, is needed, whether it will be done or not is the question. Part 3d opened with a “Pyramid of Beauty,” a tableaux which was a beauty. Next a (song), then a tableaux of the (The Seasons), which was in season ; then a song, then independence day the signing of the declaration, then the wed ding march, after which the Flower of the family made her appearance, having been snugly inclosed in a flour barrel. Then came “Good Night, Good Night,” and thanks to a house full of well pleased beings. A beauti ful drop curtain, painted, we learn, by Misses McKinley’s brother, representing a boat load of hay and mowers return : rg from haying, as natural as a thing of life fell on all that was said, Been and done that night nnd thus ended the entertainment. | The Board of Trustees passed resolutions complimenting Miss Mittie McKinley [which 1 we publish in this issue,] that ro deserving.
