Horrible Death*— We are pained to
chronicle the death of little Charlie, infant
son of Mr. and Mrs J. I). Caraway, of this
citj% On Wednesday last this sweet little
boy was playing in a room in which there
was a table with a pan of hot starch on it.
Mrs Caraway happened to be absent a mo
ment, when the little child untliouglitedly
pulled the pan of hot starch off the tabic
scalding its head and breast very severely,
Causing conjestion of the brain in a few
hour*. We tender the bereaved parent*
our sympathy.
This week we in company with some of
our cleverest merchants, took a stroll over
the farm of our jovial friend, Mr. Henry
Smith, and after seeing his cotton and corn
we do most unhesitatingly pionounce it as
good as the land will make. Friend Henry
is put dewn by all who know him as one of
the tuniest. cleverest and most whole-souled
fe’.lowis in Upson, and we don’t think they
have got it down wrong. He seems to fat
ten on hard work—guess it is because be
has an easy conscience. He is one of the
few who lives at home—that is, he raises on
his farm nearly every, tiling his family con
sumes. His farm is self sustaining. Never
owes but little and pays that—consequently
gets plenty of sleep and enjoys good health.
Yes he's fat—weights about two fifty and
they say it is quite an ordinary occurrence
for him to curl his legs up over his head
and walk around the room on his thumbs.
We are not responsible however for the last
sentence—as its only rumor. He says that
he lias not had any sickness in his family
since he has been living at his present home
and attributes his good health to a certain
spring nearby which we think is
water. It will soon be analhzed and if H
proves to be mineral Thomaston can then
boast of a “bonanza" as itisonly fof
a mile distant.
After looking at some of the finest bottom
com we have seen this year, and eating
freely of some large melons we walked to
the residence of our “stock man” Mr. E,
B. Thompson, where we found him and his
most estimable lady and precious little babes.
We walked into the orchard (come out hap
py of course) and then into the lot where
we found horses, cows, swine, sheep, &c.,
of all sizes and kinds.
We make special mention of If is hogs as
they are of an improved stock and very
large. As it was growing late we did not
have time to see friend Edwards fine crops.
En route home we passed the residence of
our bachelor (sad to say it,) friend CoL W.
X. Bealls where we noticed a large orchard
of fine fruit and vinyard containing quite a
variety of the best grapes. He has a neat
new house, nicely painted and to us it is a
little strange that some pet bird (for instance
a duck) don’t fly into said lonely domicil
and take up abode therein. Hope the Col.
will correspond with Hon. Tom Hardeman
upon the subject—we think he will advise
him to leap the conjugal twig and that toon.
Our quill is ready to write up all such “bit*
uaries.”
W* invite ths attention ot our reader* to
the advertisement of the Univerity of Geor
gia in this issue. As to the ability of the
faculty, the thoroughness of the course:and
the advantaps to be derived by a course in
the University, suffice to say that no school
in the State equals it in these respects. It is
the Btate University, and every family
should have an interest in, and patronize it.
Read the advertisement and send your boys
to the University.
v Bbandied Peaches.— To every pound
of peeled peaches add one pound of sugar
and one gill ot white brandy; make a syrup
of the sugar, add only enough water to
solve it, let it come to a boil, then put the
fruit in and let it boil five minutes; remove
the fruit carefully; then let the syrup boil 15
or 20 minutes longer, until it thickens; add
the brandy and take the kettle at once from
the fire; poUr the hot syrup over the fruit,
and seal at once. If; after the fruit has been
removed, a reddish liquor oozes from them,
drain this oft before adding the clear syrup.
Put up in glass jars that have been rolled in
hot water. Tha peaches should not be over
ripe. White cling stones are perhaps the
best.

Barbecue at Arnold Churbh.—Ac
companied bv Prof. Mathews we started at
an early hour for Arnold Church, on Sat
urday to attend the barbecue and hear
an address from one of Georgias noblest
sons—Hon. Thomas Hardeman, Jr. The
dayrwad very warm and we had quite a
plesent ridq The crops along the road
have bee* well cultivated and will make a
tolerable fair yield. The drouths of July
and August have injured them some. But
we think not seriously. It did not take our
Georgia steed long to whirl us to the scene
of action where we found “Moss Tom” and
quite a number of the good citizens ot Ar
nold and vicinity sitting beneath the large
trees engaged in a lively conversation.
Near by we noticed a smoke—that was
enough—the sign was right I We had heard
that tbit’barbecue had been postponed and
during our riae we had l experienced many
“doubts and fears” as to where there would
be a barbecue or not. But that smoke and
the smiling face of Georgia’s next Governor
removed ail apprehenioa from our mind.
We felt that we were at a barbecue aDd
would soon hear Something good. We were
not mistaken either tor soon Col. Hardeman
mounted the stand and after a short intro
duction by Dr, J. E. Cook, he began in liis
style. He held his audience
almost spell bound for more than an hour.
His sage advice and appropriate jokes did
fit together so nice. None but “big Tom
Hardenian” can make such a speech. It
would) be useless for us to attempt to give
even a synopsis of his address. It was
mostly on agriculture and our future pros
perity!. He was invited to deliver the ad
dress by the young gentlemen of “The
Arnold Literary Club” and of course he did
not forget to give them much fatherly ad
vice. | tie begged them not to go West but
to marry industrious and domestic Georgia
maidens aud be happy in the land of their
nativity. He said that a sweet little woman
was the best piece of household furniture
that he knew of—experience and observa
tion ot thirty years. We think he is about
three-thirds right. We don’t know what
effect it had on those noble young men but
privately we wish to remark that we think
Prof. M., entertains a sneaking notion ot
“scaring” some kind fathers lovely daugh
ter. Don’t think Col. H., would advise a
strongly wrong—we don’t.
Thomaston, Barnesville and Culloden
were well represented and the entire audi
ence were delighted with his able speech.
After the address an ample and well pie
pared dinner was spread upon a lengthy ta
ble up in the grove. The dinner was cer*
taiuly a fine lay out—barbecued meats of
several kinds in superabundance and bread
stuffs, sweet meats and fruit till you couldn’t
rest. Oodles of itl Enough for twice the
number of people We certainly compli
ment that community for their whole-souled
liberality upon that occasion.
The afternoon was pleasantly spent in
social conversation until four o’clock, when
the entire assemblage journeyed homeward.
The day was certainly a most pleasant one.
Carrige Manufactory. -Tuesday morn
ing our reporter, m search ot local items,
dropped into the carriage manufactory of
Messrs. Smith & Summers, whose reputa
tion is by no means confined to the State of
Georgia. From the superior work and suc
cess ot this establishment in meeting the de
mands of Middle Georgia for carriages and
buggies, it will not be amiss to present some
features of their business to the public. As
to their first establishment and history up to
this time we will not interest the public.—
We only wish to show them as they now
serve lovers of good aDd nice buggies and
carriages. They have a blacksmith shop of
five forges, with only three engaged on
carriage work and one on plantation work.
This department is presided over as foreman
by Mr. Wappello Summers, who has four
teen years practical experience, and whose
efficiency and thorough capacity is well
known to our old Fairhaven Press. When
in the past, any of her parts have yielded,
Mr. Summers with all the capacity of Vul
can himself, has satisfactorily restored the
broken part. This department is further
directed by the personal superintendance of
Mr* J. G. Smith, who is one of the best
practical blacksmiths in the State. He
knows how to do this part of the work and
has it done in the best manner. The~thfee
forges hare the capacity to turn out six jobs
a week.
?-From this department we passed into the
Woodshop, where we found Mr. M. M. Mc-
Kindley and Mr, J. 8. Ware, the presiding
spirits.lt is here that the best stj les of
northern and eastern make of bodies are
copied. In addition quite a number of new
styles are originated until Smith & Summers
boast a greater variety of style* to sait the
tastes ot purchasers than any esWbUstiment
in the South.
We next entered the Trimming depart
ment, where Mr G. L. Summers, the jun
ior member of the firm is the plrabnal sup
erintendent, and executes with his own
hands much of the excellent work that leaves
the shop. For this work he purchases the
best stock and finishes it tip to suit taste ot
the purchaser.
It is a treat then to get into the "pe inti ng
department, where the genius, of one of the
finest painters in the South presides. Six*
teen years pushing the brush hat made Mr.
G. C, Cornell master ot~his profession.—
None better serves his employer than the
painter and varnisher of vehicles. He gives
the appearance. He satisfies the wants of
the heart by captivating the eye. Nothing
captivates mankind easier, quicker and
more perfectly than good looks. How to
make good appearances las* through the
abrasions of time is no littfo skill of the
painter. It is in all tbesutfcit Mr Cornell
succeeds, “Flaking oCßkbrs and “crack
ing” of coata he prevents It takes experi
ence aad study to cloud transparent colors,
and to over comt the great number of yarn,
ish troubles the finisher needs. Mr. Cornells
mastery of these troubles is demonstrated by
the tact of his having taken the prize for-the
best essay in The Hub on Carriage Paint
ing. If there is one branch of carriage
work of which Messrs. Smith & Summers
can boast over any other manufacturer in
the State it is the painting of their vehicles,
ot which tact they have written acknowl
edgements from other manufacturers.
Their business is increasing* Sales last
week w’er eight, and a very pdor week tor
selling. They employ from eighteen to
twenty hands, and strange to say, while we
were going through the different depart-<
ment more than one hand remarked to us,
“They pay the best wages of afry establish
ment in the State.” This fact is a guaran
tee that they get the best skill and talent of
any manufactory in the State. The main
building in which their work is done is 110
xBO, two stories. They have in addition a
large building tor the storage of wagons of
their own and northern make, their lumber
and their stock of coflins. They have two
hearses, one as fine as can be found in any
city in the State, in which they deliver cof
fins without charge. They have about $3„-
000 invested in the undertakers department.
For a buggy, carriage or. wagon, no one
need go out of the State to be well accom
modated. Their work we know, from ex
perience to be superior to Northern work

Mr. Editor: —Will you pkase allow me
a short space in your columns, to correct an
erroneous report, that is in circulation, inju
rious to my character— that 1 have
been guilty of cow stealing.
The circumstances connected with the
case are these: On the 12th inst., I bought
a few head of cattle from I. 6. Smith of
Merri wether county, and sent three or tour
little lioys to drive them to my*home. At
Owens’ Ford, on Flint river, they encoun
tered—while bringing my cows home—a
large number of other ctitle; UJld, withoj.it
knowing it, left one ot my cows**(a red one)
and .brought away another, red one)
belonging to Mr. Richard Long. When
the cows arrived at my home, I turned
them into my pasture, not dreaming that an
exchange had been made. The cow re
mained in my possession till the 21st inst.,
when an officer rode lip to my residence,
and arrested me, tor theft I accompanied
him to Judge Traylor’s Court, where an in
vestigation was held,, and the Above tacts
brought to light, after being informed, by
Mr. Win. I. Young, that my cow was then
at his house. Whereupon, the case was
dismissed, and all parties satisfied.
1 must say, though, in conclusion, that I
think my neighbor, Mr. Long.!; treated me
very uncharitably, to say the least of it, to
have me arrested, before finding out the
cause of his cow’s being ia my pasture.
Hoping that the above explanation will
satisfy all, and remove the odious stigriia;
and thanking you, Mr. Editor, lor so much
of your space, I am,
Respectfully,
Zachariah Lawrence.
