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. OETTtSa TO TUB POINT. (First attempt.) “Miss Belle, I’ve bought the nicest little cottage— The snuggest nook.

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 Gazette. * <l ; Remember the Herald is only cts., from how till Christmas !

Blackvillk, Aug. Iptli, 1877. 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.
