Seals’ enterprise,—for success it is beyond peradventure ; and just such a suc cess, too, as should fill every Southern heart with pride. When this enterprise was inaugurated, knowing ones shook their heads in prognostication of failure. But, lo! its success has surpassed the brightest anticipations of its most sanguine friends, and to-day, although vet in its swaddling clothes, the “Sunny South” rivals the oldest Illustrated Literary papers of the land in beauty of typographical execution, and sur passes them in the merits of its contents. As our people love their own sunny South, let them banish Northern literature from their hearthstones and contribute of their means to the building up of a literature of their own.

HELD )N Augusta, on Wedne day, July 7, 1875. A full attendance is required. G. B. POWELL, June 17, ’75w3 Brest. Board Directors. It becomes our painful duty to chronicle the death of John Armstrong, Esq., which occurred at his residence, near Bairds town’on last Saturday, after a protracted llness of Paralysis. Mr Armstrong was an intelligent, liightoned gentleman, and in his death the county sustains a serious loss. Wo are informed that. Mr. E A. High tower, brother of our fellow-citizen, A. A Hightower, departed this life at his resi dence near Powelton, on last Sabbath night. A EScnsonable lSequest. We take pleasure in calling the attention of his Honor Judge Thornton and the City Council, to a communication in this issue, signed “The Ladies.” As will appearfrom a perusal of the communication, the writer suggests that the Court-House square be converted into a Park, and provided with seats for the accommodation of those of our people who uesire to while away an hour, forgetful of the cares and perplexities inci dent to life. Certainly there can he no well-founded objections to carrying out the suggestion, and as the expenses would be trifling, we feel that the request is reasonable, and hope the wishes of the Ladies will be con sulted. mm • X3ixed mill luttiiiveil. The regular Atlanta correspondent of the Augusta Constitutionalist, who is usu ally correct and always newsy, drops into a bad error, or rather a whole handful of errors when, in speaking of the Loyd Street Methodist Church, he says : “ Rev. Joshua Knowles, once a partner of the late Simeon Rose in the publication of the old Macon Journal and Messenger, is the regu lar pastor of the church.” Dr. Knowles is not a Methodist., but an Episcopalian. He lives in Greenesboro’, and not in Atlanta. M-. Rose’s front name whs Simri, and not Simeon. Dr. Knowles is not the regular pastor of any Atlanta church, but Is the editor of the Greenesboro’ Herald, and preaches occasionally at Greenesboro' and, we believe, at Athens. The Atlanta Constitution, frofT? which we take the above clipping, falls into as many errors ns the correspondent of the Augusta Constiiutionalist whom he seeks to correct. Rev. Joshua Knowles, Rector of the Church of the Redeemer at this place and also of the Episcopal Church at Madison, is a catholic spirited Episcopalian Clergy man—too liberal in his religious sentiments to suit the high church ideas of the hier archy of that denomination in Georgia, but he is no M.D. D.I), or LL.D. He is not the editor of or in any way connected with the Greenesboro’ Herald, but is editor and proprietor of the Georgia Home Journal issued from this place. OLD COLXTI liIAK. The Commissioners appointed by the Counties of Greene and Oglethorpe to run and define the disputed line between said Counties have discharged the responsible duties devolving upon them. The Commis sion consisted of the following gentleman : On the part of Greene —Jefferson F. Wright, Esq., County Surveyor, and Wm. R. Wilson, Esq.; for Oglethorpe—Thomas B. Moss and John Hurt, Esqrs. The line as defined runs as follows: Beginning at Clay’s Bridge on Little River thence in a direct line S. 73° 15' W 4J miles to the garden of W. R. Wilson, at Bairdstown ; thence N. (57° 45' W. 10] miles to the mouth of Falling Creek. Leaving Clay’s Bridge, the line crosses Hurricane Creek twice; passing John Armstrong’s it throws his resilience and gin house into Greene and runs through Bairdstown between the Church and Academy (giving the former to Greene and the latter to Oglethorpe) to Mr. Wilson's garden. Here the line makes a deflection to the North and as before stated runs N. 67° 45 / W. to the confluence of Falling Creek with the Oconee River. At Mr. Hurt's the line [runs between the dwelling and gin-house, thence by Walter A. Partee’s, Mr. Zuber’s—formerly Daniel Hall's, and Elijah Whee’ess’. The dwell ings of Messrs. Hurt, Zuber and Wheeless being in Oglethorpe, and the gin house of Mr. Hurt and the dwelling of W. A. Par tee, Esq., in Greene. This is no new line, but the old line newly defined. We trust the line is now sufficiently definite to re lieve our fellow citizens of that section from the annoyance and inconveniences to which they have been subjected for some years. Thanks. We return thanks to the efficient'Head of the State Bureau of Agriculture, fora copy of his very comprehensive Report of the condition of crops, etc., for May. From this Report we glean the following inter esting information: Corn.— There are 7 per cent, more acres plantod in corn this year than last, or 152,- 916 acres more than last year. There is also an increase of 6 per cent, in the amount of fertilizers used on corn ; 68 per cent, of these compost. In preparation and time of planting, there is a decrease of 3 per cent. A large margin from the mid dle and lower counties report the best dis tance for corn, 4x5, 3x6—the upper coun ties, 3x4, 3x5 and 4x4- Oats. — There is an increase of 12 per cent, in the number of acres sown in oats, or 55,215 acres more than last year 49 per cent, of these were sown in the fall,and 21 per cent* fertilized. The condition of the crop May loth, throughout the State, was 1 per cent, above an average. A largo majority who reported “best variety,’’give the preference to the “rust proof”—many prefer the '‘winter grazing.” while a num ber prefer what they call tlir “yellow.’' [ which may mean either of the above. A ; large majority sow one bushel of seed per acre —some only one-half bushel, and oth ers as much as three bushels. Wheat. —The acreage in wheat is 14 per cent., or 50,249 acres more than last year : 5 per cent, more fertilizers used on it, and the cendition of the crop. May 15th, 1 per cent, above an average. The varieties prin cipally recommended as successful are the “Tappahanuock,” ‘ Early Red,” or “Red May,” in the middle and lower counties, and the “Tappahanuock and the spring varieties in the northern counties. A large majority sow one bushel per acre, while many sow only one-half or three-fourths that quantity. A few sow* more than one bushel. • Clover. —The acreage in clover is 7 per cent, greater than last year, while its con dition May 15th was 1 per cent, below an average. Correspondents from the middle counties report it best to sow alone, either in fall or spring. In the upper counties it is sown either alone, or with small grain, in spring principally; but some say Sep tember. Ao increase of only 1 per cent, in grasses is reported. Correspondents al most unanimously recommend the sowing of grass seeds alone, either in fall or spring. Cotton— —There is 5 per cent, or 80,150 acres less cotton planted this year than last. Preparation of the soil is reported only two-thirds of 1 percent, inferior to last year, while 4} per ceut. more fertilizers are used, 62 per cent, of which is compost. The condition of the crop May 15th gen erally two weeks late, and 3 per cent below an everage. [COMMUNICATED.] Mr. Editor, —We scarcely know how to express our appreciation of the sweet strains of music discoursed by our own Band al ternate evening from the Court-House square. Sweet “music hath charms to sooth” the troubled spirit, and is calcula ted to drive dull care from many a sorrow ing heart, We trust the gentlemen com posing the Band will continue to regale the community with charming music. Why cannot the Court-House square be converted into a Park, and provided with seats for the accommodation of the Ladies? It would be a delightful resort after the turmoils of the day. Will not our City Fathers consider the matter? We hope 60. the ladies. [communicated.] TATTLIVCJ. Mr. Editor—A few d&ya ago, a friend requested me to write a short article for your valuable paper upon the pernicious habit of “ tattling.” 1 am at a loss to know what suggested the subject to his mind. Certainly not the prevalence of the vice—for vice it is—in our community. But be that as it may, I have, upon reflection, con ceded to gratify him, and in so doing perchance scatter some seed upon soil that may bring forth good fruit. Tat tling, like its twin-sister “ Falsehood, is a vice of such hideous mien, that to bo dreaded needs but to seen,” yet how many votaries worship at her shrine? Solomon said: “Where there is no wood the fire goeth out and where there is no tattler strife ceaseth.” A lady of our acquaintance who was about to change her residence,inquired of a gentleman who was well acquaint ed with the place,whither she expected to move, if there was much sociability among the people of her prospective home He replied that the people were friendly, but there was not visit ing enough among them to get up even an occasional fust. The inference from such a remark can only he that where there is much visiting the tendency is to disturbances and ill-feeling between neighbors. Now while gabing is often the life of gadders, it does not follow necessarily that unkind feelings are en gendered by sociability among neigh bors ; hut, we are sorry to say that not unfrequeutly thoughtless and light con versation indulged on such occasions results in evil. Of'course, Mr. Editor, we have no tattlers in our peaceable community. True, we have an occa sional importation of this “ rara avis,” but our pure atmosphere will not sus tain the life of such a vile cormorant. We account for this remarkable state of our society upon the ground that our people have not the time to spare from the administration of their own private affairs to devote to an inspec tion of the domestic affairs of their neighbors. However that may be, of the absence of this pernicious practice in our community, we feel assured, and what a blessed immunity it is. How privileged to be permitted to sit under one’s own vine and fig tree without hav ing one’s “ ears burn,” or being appre hensive of “ Slander; Whoso edge is sharper than the Sword; whose Tongue Outvenoms all the worms of Nile ; whoso breath Rides on the posting winds, and doth belie All corners of the world.” When this feature of ear society — freedom from tattlers—becomes gener ally known we should net wonder if it became necessary to extend our corpor ate limits to give accommodation to the great influx to our city.

Thero is nothing thnt so much elevates and strengthens the moral and social status of a people, as the amount of infor mation they have upon general subjects. The taste, refinement and dignity which characterize them, are in proportion to the amount of information (Pffused among them. But to have this information, the means to give it must be provided, and be provided in such a way that the largest amount of it can be had with the smallest means, and at the least cost. The Press, we think, eminently and fully supples the means. It finds its way into every nook and corner of the country, scat tering the best thoughts of the best minds of the age among the peoplo. Politics, re ligion, art, science, agriculture, ami litera ture are fully and freely discussed, and a man or woman is a very careless reader who does not get very well informed upjon these subjects. There is a freshness about it too, that impresses itself upon the mind at once, and the information thus obtained is ready at all times for use. The style is easy and pleasing, many times amounting to master pieces of rhetorical composition. The information thus given is very cheap, and easily obtained. It is absolutely with in the reach of everybody, if they will have it. It is our desire, as well as pleasure to have cur children well informed. It gives them an ease and grace in their intercourse with the world, which cannot be dispe-sed with, bupply them with gooi[newspapers, and you have done much towards accom plishing what you desire. You cannot put too many good, reliable newspapers in the hands of your family. They are the daily food for mind, as much as bread is food for the body. Show us a community of constant newspaper readers, and we will show you a community well informed upon general subjects, and people who command the respect ami confidence of each other.— The citizens will he refined, courteous and dignified. Give them information and they become better citizens everjway. They will be better Christians, better husbands, better wives, better fathers and mothers, belter children and better neighbors, bet ter in every department of life. Then we say, take newspapers, good ones, and put them in the hands of your family; and you will reap a rich reward in the good you have done them. And by all means, take your county pa pers, and thereby strengthen and elevate your own immediate section. You will certainly do much towards that end it you do it. They refer to things at your own door. They speak of your friends and what interests them and you too. They come as weekly salutations among friends.

M.,\ June 10, 1875. / The Committee appointed to draft a tribute of respect to the memory of our de ceased Brother, John T. Dawson, respect fully submit the following : While peaceably at work an alarm was made at the outer door of our Lodge by the ruthless invader—Death —and Brother J. T. Dawson was summoned to the Grand Lodge above. Brother Dawson was born on the 10th December. 1841, and d-parted this life on the 9th day of June, 1875. We deeply de plore bis loss, but humbly bow in submis sion to the will of Him “ who doeth all things well.” We meditate with pleasure upon those beautiful traps of character which stamped Brother Dawson as one of nature’s noblemen ; and with brotherly affection cast the mantle of Masonic charity over these foibles which allied him to erring humanity. Whereas, It has pleased our Heavenly Father to remove our Brother from the scenes of Time to the realities of the great unknown Eternity; therefore, be it Resolved, That in the death of Brother Dawson we have lost a noble Brother, his family an affectionate and indulgent head and the community a good citizen. Resolved, That a page of the minute book of this Lodge be inscribed to his memory, the furniture of the Lodge be draped in mourning and the members of the Lodge wear the usual badge for 30 days. Resolved, That the Secretary be instruct ed to furnish a copy of these resolutions to the family of our deceased Brother with the heartfelt condolence of this Lodge, and that the Greenesboro’ Herald be requested to publish this tribute of respect.
