Sunday School Pic Nic.—We are sure that all the little folks in our town will be interested, to know some thing of what the older people propose doing for them, the first of May. We are happy to bo able to gratify our young friends, by telling them that the following ladies and gentlemen have taken the Sunday School Pic Hfc in band, and we doubt not, will arrange a programme that will be satisfactory to all: On the part of the Baptist Church, Col. McGlashan and Miss Charlie Gaulden; the Pres byterians are represented by Mr. John E. Baker and Miss Bessie Merrill; whilst the Methodists are represented by Judge Hardaway and Mrs. Dr. Brandon. We understand that the schools will meet at the Presbyterian Church, from thence they will march in procession to the Methodist Church, where an appropriate address will be delivered. The united schools will then proceed to the large grove, near Mr. H. B. Ainsworth’s, whero a colla tion will be spread, ana partaken of by all both big and little. We wish our juvenile friends a happy day of it, and we feel sure, fudging from the committee, that nothing will be left undone. Ordinary.. Low Middling,...

Frost.—Oar early risers was greet ed on last Wednesday morning, by a glittering and sharp frost; although, we believe but little damage was done by this late and unwelcome visitor. We presume that this was the cold snap that usually occurs about Easter, which is to-morrow. To the Ladies!—II.

The importance of the transaction on the 9th inst., by which the owner ship of the property, on the corner o. Broad and Jackson streets, so long occupied by CoL Remington, was transferred to Thomas C. Mitchell, Esq., can hardly be over-estimated.— It will mark a new era in our hitherto steady going place. The old family residence of Col. Remington will, ns soon as possession is. given, be re moved, and on its location will be reared a splendid brick edifice, that will not only be creditable to our place, but will be a monument to the public- spirited gentleman who proposes to erect it. We did not think while pen ning the article which appeared in our columns last week, that the solution of this hitherto difficult problem of a hotel, was so near at hand. We con gratulate our citizens upon the pros pect of the comparatively early coin pletion of a hotel, equal to and com raensurate with the growing impor tance of Thomasville. A friend has very kindly tarnished us wilh some information as to the history of this piece of properly, that may prove interesting and which de monstrate-* the advance in real estate here. Lot No. 3, in square B, was sold in 1829, by order of the Justices of the Inferior Court, for tho sum of tea dollars, aud bought subsequently by Col. Remington for fifty dollars.— Lot No. 4, same square, originally said for forty-one dollars, and aficrwnrds urchaaed by Col. R.,for one hundred ollars: and now, this same property sells for fifteen thousand dollars. may demonstrate to his entire satis faction. Isaiah Dele. This gentlemen’s advertisement sets forth that he is prepared to pot op all kinds of wooden building*, on the most reasonable terms, together with a good supply of lumber always on hand. Hts Grist Mill runs on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, when meal and grits are turned out of the best qnality; and lastly, if yon wish to be buried, Isaiah will put yon in a hand some metalic or other case. If you want accommodations in any of these departments call on him at his old stand on Broad SL Equitable Life Assurance So ciety.

He is constantly making blunders, the last one of which is told in the Baltimore Sun’s Wash* ington special of Tuesday! It says: Gen. Jno. B. Gordon was sworn in to-day as 8enator from Georgia.— Some amnsement was created by Vice-President Wilson at first inad vertently patting to him the iron-clad oath instead of the modified oath pre scribed for ex-Confederates. When Mr. Wilson read “you solemnly swear that yon have never voluntarily borne arms against the United States,” a very perceptible smile was visible on the face of many, both on the floor and in the galleries. A Dang erous Well.—Wo would call the attention of the owners, or some of the constituted authorities, to the very dangerous condition of the Well botween our office and tho Book Storo. The curbing is all down pn ono side, and there is nothing whatever to pre vent any one from stepping into this gaping Well, which i» of groat depth. Let It be looked after.

Our New Signs.—We were aware of the fact that, the signs lately put up in front of the “Times” office, has 'attracted ths attention of all who have passed along Jackson street and have been admired for the beautiful style ot the lettering and their artistic finish, bat we were not aware of the fact that they had attracted the attention of seme gentleman “under a cloud,” yet It seems they have. We are hippy to say to our unknown friend, that one of our most expert sign painters, Mr. Wolcott, has bad in hand for ns several days, one of the largest and hand somest signs ever put up in Thomas ville, and if he will bear with us a few dAys,w* Wffl show him a piece of “Job Work” done fit home, that he who runs may read.

This gentleman has done much to ward building up an exclusive Buggy, Carriage and Wagon business in our town. Wherever a specialty is made of any business, it carries with it an advantage not to be realized in any mixed business. Mr. Smith has, by long experience, and by making an annual trip to all the leading Eastern Manufactories, acquired a knowledge of the business; which, coupled with his well known integrity and populari ty, gives him a hold on the public con fidence and patronage that must be gratifying to himself and friends, lit is now closing out at reduced prices, to make room for a Spring Stock.— Now is the time for a bargain. See his advertisement Col. P. McGlashan. This is a name that is familiar to all our readers. The Col, fried Ma con a few years, but he has returned to hid first love and among a people, who, not only admire him for his sterling soldierly qualities, but for his equally well' known character for up rightness and integrity. He keeps a lags stock on hand, and Is prepared to tarnish anything in the line of Sad dles, Bridles, Harness or anything else in his extonsive stock, at as rea sonable rates as they can be bought at in South-west Georgia. Read his ad vertisement, and sec what he keeps. Samuel J. Cassels. It is almost superfluous for us to say anything in reference to this long es tablished Drug house. The many who hare, for years, been patronizing this establishment, attest how well all are treated by the gentlemanly proprietor. In compounding and filling preset ip- tions. you may always rest assured that the right articles will be put up, and strictly in accordance with the prescription. Set bis advertisement of paints, oils, dye stuffs, garden seeds, <£c., and give him a call John Stark. We take special pleasure in direct ing the attention of our leaders to the advertisement of Mr. John Stark, which appears on our third page. lie is engaged in the very laudable work of producing. A few years ago, the growth of the grope was confined to a few families, and only a few vines were cultivated by these; bat by the energy and foresight of such public spirited citizens as Mr. Stark, a new era is dawning on South-west Georgia, and the successful culture of the grape is no longer a problem. That it may elevated plateau of beautiful pine and hickory lands, may be seen the haud- some and posperous city ot Thomas ville. The population is about 3.000 inhabitants, unsurpassed for intelli gence, refinement and hospitality,. Her merchants stand among the very best in the South, and we liazzaid the opinion if another town in the State of its size enjoys an equal reputation for the same integrity, commercial stand ing and capital for which this lovely little city is justly celebrated. A gen tleman told us, there were three men in Thomasville whose aggregate wealth would loot ub £1,000,000. The planting interest of this county we found to rest on a substantial basis ; a largo number of the farmers raising their own corn, meat, syrr - ‘ which enables them to un ton crop clear. Thomasville has many beautiful brick stores, a magnificent court house, a number of churches and handsome private residences. Mr, Tom. Mitch ell is erecting a very pretty and com modious structure o! this kind at the present time. There are many build ings gbing up in all parts of the city, and opposite the banking honse of our popular friends, Wright A Stegall, Col.
