If we may judge from our own orcarhd, the

Capt. W. W. Carter and family, formerly

A great many people report the melon
crop a failure, but the number of extra fine

the assertion.

The fellow who borrowed our umbrella
and forgot to return it, needn’t bother about

Dr. James Palmer, near Oconee, has the

If the same number of steady blows in

some of the grassy cotton fields it would ma

Very heavy rains—in some instances quite

Hon. A. C. Pate and J. H. Pate, Esq., of

O
Mr. Jamesjj Stephens has our thanks for
the finest cantelope of the season. All hands
in the office feasted upon it, and it was none

however,) for the seed.

The rain storm on Saturday afternoon last,
prevented Elders Binion and Adams from
reaching this city to fill their appointments

Methodist church.

George Reinhart’s boot and shoe shop is
soon to be ornamented with two handsome

ink to let people know where to find him.

Prof. Duggan popped in upon us yester
day. Says he is having a glorious vacation,
and only dropped in to see how the new school
house was getting on. We told him it wasn’t
quite finished yet, but the Trustees would
hold a meeting Saturday morning and talk
about it.

The foot of a black bear was brought into
our office on Thursday, the 17th, by a friend.
The bear was killed in Calhoun county, on
last Monday week, by Messrs. Pope and Wil

this county. The animal was very large,
weighed one hundred and sixty-five pounds,
'and was very poor at that
* O
Farmers begin to straighten up, and look
quite comfortable. The crop is about laid
by, a little work to do in the cotton yet per
haps, but kind old nature must do the most
that remains to be done. The prospect for
a good yield is by no means flattering, but
it is to be hoped the laborer will be repaid
for his toil. So mote it be.
O
The Patrons of Husbandry are to have a
grand time on to-morrow—Saturday. A
number of visiting Granges are expected and
of course “the big pot will be put in the
little one.” We hope to be there (at the
TTp.11) to see, but this horrid tread-mill of
ours keeps us from many of these pleasant
gatherings. The man who runs a newspa
per Successfully hasn’t time for much else.
o
“I wish we could have a little rain,’ was
the general remark of almost every farmer
with whom we conversed on Saturday morn
ing last. And about three o’clock it came,
while the crowd was assembled at the Fair
Grounds, and such another.spoiling of pret
ty hats, i Sunday coats, etc. Sunday after
noon we had it again, and then on Monday
afiernoon it was repeated. Guess they don’t
want any more rain just now.

O
A “Weld Cat” in the City.—Don’t be
frightened, reader, the varmint is securely
chained find locked up in his “cage. He
came in following a dray from the Depot one
afternoon last week. He was received by
our gallant Eire Brigade and forced into a
house, where he still remains. The mon
ster weighs considerably over several hun
dred pounds, and no doubt would do great
“execution” should an" opportunity be af
forded. The Firemen had him on the cot
ton platform for several hours on Friday
last, took off his chains and gave him a
chance to show what he could do in an emer
gency. He “devoured” everything placed
within reach of his capacious jaws, and made
lots of fun for the by standers. But the
Firemen, in supplying him with “material”
upon which to show his wonderful powers,
found it more work than fun. They have
him pretty well “tamed” now, and the next
time they bring him out will find less diffi
culty in managing him.
A Memorable Day.
Friday last witnessed quite an epoch in
the history of Sandersville, to-wit: the intro
duction of the first Fire Engine ever used in
the city. This Engine is known as the
“Mild Cat,” and formerly belonged to Ger
mania Fire Company of Savannah. It was
purchased of the city authorities of Savan
nah by our own city Council, and arrived
on Tuesday afternoon. She Central Bail
Road, with characteristic liberality, trans
ported the Engine to No. 13; free of charge;
a servico highly appreciated by our people,
and for which in their behalf we return
thanks to Col. Rogers, Superintendent of the
Road, whom we have ever found ready to do
a kind act when in his power.
But to return. On Thursday night a dele'
gation from the Fire Department of Savan
nah arrived to teach our untrained boys how
to manage the “Wild Cat.” Friday morning
the Fire Company, municipal authorities
with their guests from Savannah, and citi
zens assembled in the Court-room, where
Mayor Pringle in a speech of welcome ten
dered the hospitality of the city to the dele
gation from Savannah. He was responded
to by Mr. Swoll, Chief of the Savannah Fire
Department, who assured His honor that he
would ever find the “Wild Cat” a sturdy
friend in time of need.
Mayor Pringle t&m formally surrendered
the Engine into the keeping of our gallant
Firemen, in whose hands we feared not to
trust it.
The trust was gracefully accepted by Fore
man Weddon, when all hands adjourned to
the Engine-house to see what the “Varmint’,
could be made to do. As our “water-works”
are yet in the future, a temporary supply
had been provided, and right gallantly did
the boys, assisted by their brethren of Sa
vannah, handle the “Wild Cat” for the first
time.
In the afternoon the Company were again
out for drill and parade and the Foreman
expressed entire satisfaction with the work
ing of his Engine. A little more hose is
perhaps all he needs.
On Friday night our excellent Brass Band
gave the Savannah Firemen a grand serenade
at the Gilmore House. Mine host threw
open his doors and in his happiest mood
thanked the Band, in behalf of his Savannah
guests, and bade them enter. Jesse A. Rob
son, Esq., responded elegantly, to the speech
of Mr. Gilmore, on the part of the Band,
All hands repaired to the spacious dining
room, and then ensued a feast such
Knights of the olden time delighted to rev
el in.
Our friends paid a brief visit to the Fair
on Saturday, where each was “assigned to
duty” on some committee, and right well did
they perform their part. They left for the
Forest City on the Ip. m., train. And we
hope to see them here again on many future
occasions.
The delegation was composed as follows:
Chief Wm. Swoll, Col. Winn, L. - B. En-
dres, Alfred Robidcr, Andrew Goebel, Val
entine Basler, James Kearney, and Maj. J. D.
Delannoy.
O
The Concert, on Friday night last, was
justly pronounced by the audience, one of
the best ever given in this city. The pro
gramme embraced some of the finest produc
tions of the day, and the peices were all
well rendered. Round after round of ap
plause attested the delight of the large audi
ence present. Our people are largely indebt
ed to Professors F. A. and Charlie Gutten-
berger, and Mrs. Steadman, of South Caro
lina, as well as to several of the ladies of this
city, and Master Spurgeon Jackson, for a
rich feast indeed. Mrs. Steadman is one of
the sweet singers of the South. She pos
sesses a voice attuned by nature to sweetest
sound and rare musical talent thoroughly
cultivated. Prof. Charlie Guttenberger is
one of the natural musicians of the day. A
thorough master of music, he exhibits a di
versity of talent not often bestowed upon
one individual. Master Spurgeon Jackson,
one of Prof. F. A. Guttenberger’s pupils,
gives promise to be one of the finest per
formers of the day. His execution of diffi
cult peices was very fine.
Everybody was delighted and felt that
they had “got their money worth” and about
five hundred per cent additional.

O
Apology to Minus.
Editors Herald: Under a misapprehension
of facts, I inserted a Card in your issue of
last week, calling to a personal accountability
your correspondent Minus. After mature
deliberation, and being convinced of the fact
that the eccentric farmer of “Howardian as
pects’ in no manner whatever carried any o
the handsome features for which your hum
ble servant is distinguished, I feel constrain
ed to withdraw the card, and will let Minus
and Brace O’ Pistols fight it out “on that line
if it takes all summer.
I was at first impressed with the idea that
my physiognomy was assailed by Minus for
the base purpose of reflecting upon my char
acter and social standing, and would |have
treated the author of the aspersion as merits
the foul calumniator; but I am now convinc
ed to my entire satisfaction that the allusion
of Minus was, intentionally, complimentary
to the “eccentric farmer of Howardian as
pects,” who doubtless aspires, at least, to rival
me in hirsuteness, if not in the more refined
development and symmetry of features. Su li
aspirations are honorable, commendable and
laudable.
I trust this is sufficient apology for Minus
and for fear there will be further allusion to
“pistols and coffee,” I now retire from the
public, hoping to avoid any complication
whatever, informing “whom it may concern”
that my mother took special pains raising
me—not for a target. Hence at the sugges
tion of “Brace O’ Pistols,” I will “stand from
under” the “Drippings” of Minus, and at the
same time beware of the enfilading fire of the
“Brace O’Pistols. ” Wm. H. Howard.

Pic \ic at Horton's Mills.
Catoe’s Store, Ga., July 18, 1873.
Editors Herald: We had one of the most in
teresting Pic Nics at Horton’s Mills it has
been my good fortune to attend for some
time past, to-day. The crowd assembled
nbout 10 o’clock, a. m. The forenoon was
spent entrapping the finey tribe. About 12
dinner was announced, and I assure you,
Messrs. Editors, I can hardly do that dinner
justice. The table fairly groaned beneath its
load of good things prepared by the fair sex.
Mr. H. H. Horton displayed his generosity
to an unlimited extent in the way of melons
and eider. No people than these hereabout
know better, I will venture to say, how to
fix up a good dinner for an occasion like this.
• After dinner, a pleasant ride in a boat and
then .off to the house to “tip the light fan
tastic toe.” And then, Oh! sweet strains of
music burst upon my ear, performed by Mr.
Z, Brantley, “fori am sure Zach knows how
to draw the Bow.”
Space will not allow me to do the subject
justice. Thus passed at Horton’s Mills a day
which will be indellibly stamped upon the
memory of all who were present.
