may 17-11. *
Cuors.—Wc are glad to hear that
the farmers give very encouraging
reports of the crops. The last week
has been splendid weather on cotlou
aud com.
Oats.—\\ e arc glad to see that our
farmers arc making the raising of oats
a success in this county. The croj
this year is very good, and a tolerable
good supply has been planted. It is
being cut now and hauled in.
Good for Tiiomasville. — W c
learu that there is not a Bar-room in
our town, uot one. We venture there
is not a town in Georgia of thirty-five
hundred inhabitants, or half that num
ber, (hat has no bar-room. That
speak* well for ThomasviUc temper
ance.
For Sale.—A life Schollorship in
Moores Southern Business University
of quanta. Also one in Eastmans
Commercial College of Atlanta, those
wanting to attend a Commeieicl
School would do well to consult us be
fore going. Apply at this oflice. t£
Joe Norris is tbe boss of a pony
that can toot 230 minutes in a mile,
and is going to exhibit him at the
State fair. Good pony that.
Crop Reports.—From what we
can gather from all of our exchanges
in different parts of the State, on an
average the crops arc only tolerable
good, the wheat crop in North Geor
gia is not good, the oat crop is better.
Rut much can’t be told about the
crop just now. We hope they may
turn out all right, for a failure in this
years cop would set many flat.
IIot.—Wonder if any of our readers
have observed that wc have been huv-
ing right hot weather.' It has been
hot enough tor the last few dajs to
make an ox run away to get to a
shade.
If it gets much hotter, Carroll wiU
have to put his Thermometer in an
ice-box to keep it from melting.
The Vigilanfs Parade &c., was a
success, they made a line appearance
they went throgli the usual inspection
and then repaired to their picnic
grouds where a jolly time was had and
at night a still jollier one. Wc arc
glad to see them encouraged by the
citizens, they arc a valuable organi
zation to the city. Dr. Hopkins pre
sented them with a handsome flag
with appropriate remarks.
Dull Times.—Times are dull in
these parts just now, aud it is the gc n-
eral complaint even in the hussy At
lanta. While everything seems fulLof
business, the same comylaint prevails.
Well this is a dull season wc don’t c x-
pect much business now, the wcatl.cr
is hcaulful and the farmers arc bmsy
keeping even with Mr. Grass, and
hav'nt time to come to town even if
they had the money to trade with.
That Park, although it has been
‘•tabled,” ns many other things have
been, and as many have been unfabl
ed, is all the go amongst the young fol Ics^
they know how nice it would be to re
sort there these long hot cvenigs and
forget all else but pleasure. Wc m ist
have the Park, if we do have to unia-
blc things. Yes ThomasviUc must
take up many things that, too long
have been tabled if she would be wl.at
it seems uuture inteded she should
he and what she aspires to be.
Gardens.—Our people arc cnj< y-
g a feast in vegetables now. 'J he
irdcns are fine, the seasons have
been very propritious. and wc cxp-rct
:an show some ns fine gardens as
any town in Georgia.
And by the way, while on the sub
ject, we will here take occasion to re
turn our most grateful acknowledg
ments to our neighbors, Mrs. i)r.
Brandon, Mrs. McGehec and Mrs, J>r.
Andrews, for their kind remembran es
in the way of very line vegetables.
Col. Flea lias pul iu an appearance
in our burg. (Juilo a number fr .in
Florida will Summer it up here. Tl.ey
arc very popular too, with cvcry-b« ly
ns they arc very sociable, and mix
freely and friendly with nil clasps,
and don’t slight any. They rccciw a
great deal of attention, and no doubt
arc enjoying themselves, (—that one
in out boot” seems to be at least,
about this writing, and thcres a judge
in, and wc can't pull oil'our boot, so
wc have lo enjoy it and be sociabh.
Kkkf Kulk.—Yes keep cool, : nd
all who dou’t keep cool when they < an
buy ice at two ccuts a pound ouglr to
be hot and very hot too. As will be
seen l>y advertisement, Mess. »Sut .on
& Rfo., of Albany, propose lo fun i»l»
iec at the depot here, to all who W aul
it, at the low price of two «ccnts pci
pound, that is quite different from ten
cents, what it has been soiling at lu re.
We are sorry to see Albany so much
alnad in enterprise as this.
Send your orders to Sutton & Bro.,
Albany, Ga.
‘•(’laghorn & Cunningham,” o'itus
•Morning News,” was in town Tues
day looking as fresh as a green l ay.
We arc always glad to see as good
looking Savannah Gcnt(ry) os In* in
town. Success to you Mr. Claghoi u &
Cunniughain—Morning News— nay
you make your new busiucss as popu
lar as you did your old.
By the way brother Gentry we ac
cept your reproof for not crediting tbe
excursion programmes. You will ex
cuse our modesty, we'll get hnrdt ncil
to it alter a while, then we'll put
“Times ITint,'' ou everything.
While iu Atiauta last week wc were
pleased tc meet at Moores popular
Commercial School a uumber of Thom-
asville boys. Taylor Brandon and
McLendou, all of whom were highly
pleased and enjoying good health.
They nrc some of our most estima
ble young men, whose genial faces
will be missed, lor the few mouths
may be gouc. but we hope their tay
may prove beneficial. They are in
good hands and under competent tu
torship. l'rof. Moore has built up t»
line School and and a wide spread
reputation, by his kind and alter live
course to his pupils and the thort ugh
manner iu which he turns them out.
So go it boys, it is said “the pen i>
mightier than the sword,” very true,
anil surely more lucrative, so h am
Well to use it.
The Park Stock is adxancing and
while talking of parks, it reminds u>
that there is a saying that “there is a
tone for all things” but we know an
exception, tlieic is no (inn for our ci»y
and while agitating other impr >ve-
intuls, we would suggest that we ilon'i
dnow a nicer and at the same ime
more useful improvement, iu our grow
ing city than a town clock would be.
wc have the very place for it,—looks
like it was intended for one, we mean
ou top of the Court House. This is cen-
terly located and caube seen almo t all
over the town. A prettier j lace
could not be found, and a more attrac
tive improvement could not be made
lor so small an outlay. Lets have one,
we want to see Thomasville look like
a city as she is bound to be.

THE FAIR.

Represented.
SIX PAPERS REPRESENTED.
Country Editors in Clover.
WINDS UP WITH A BIG RAIN.
With our limited space and time we
ire loth to go into a report of this
'rand affair, for inspired by the grand
success and the praise to be heard
from most every lip, we arc apt to
trespass on our limit, and under re
straint not do justice. The morning
opened beautiful aud clear with scarce -
ly a cloud to dot the sky. Thomas
ville rose early and all were anxious
and jubilant over an expected gala
day. Early the committees, ladies
and all, were on the ground, the latter
with their dear busy bauds and clicer-
full hearts, lent zeal aud invaluable
aid lo the persevering committeemen,
and by an early hour all things were
adiuess. At half past nine, the
traius from three diffeient directions
directions with a shrill whistle an
nounce their approach, and a large
crowd of citizens assembled to meet
them at the depot, where the trains
had by this time arrived, each well fill
ed; our Baud struck up a lively air,
met the splendid Quitman Band, and
escorted them to the grounds, where
all proceeded, and the exhibition
opened. The ground was soon swarm
ing with anxious people, and the halls
presented an appearance that brought
back a thought of the first State Fair
in Macon. The articles for exhibi
tion were well arranged ou the sides
of the Ilnll, ami quite apropos,the cen
tre counter was covered with the rich
est exhibition that we ever saw in the
Floral line, handsome wreathes, tow
ering boqucls, crosses of flowers, &c.,
&c. Truly, this was the centre of at
traction, aud evinced that our dear la
dies were not idle in their cfi'ortsto help
make this as it was, a crowning effort,
an unparalleled success, long to be
metnbered with credit to the iudustry
and enterprise of Thomas aud sur
rounding counties that were lepreseu-
ted in the entries.
How they succeeded it is useless to
try to say. The most sanguine ex
pectations of all were exceeded and
some wero even surpVisei!. A finer
display of vegetables were we think
seldom exhibited in any country. "We
wish wc had time Here to particular
ize hut can't. About one o'clock, hab
it began to remind all that there was
another interesting exhibition—the
contents of the large baskets sitting
around—that it was time to look after
and everybody began to invite every
body else lo dine. Wc even, forget-
ing that wc didn’t have any basket,
invited a country editor to dine with
us, we fozgot two ihat they never re
fuse. So we bad lo take him under
our wing and. help do justice to our iu-
vitc. Soon the side halls were one
dinner talde, and nobody were stran
gers and all cat and were happy.
After a sumptuous feast all were
ready to renew observations and
promenading and gavety was the
order, until it was nnuoumed that the
premiums would Le.awardi d up stairs
in the hall,and nil curious lo learn the
result, soon filled the hall. Secre
tary Ilansell proceeded to make the
awards and the chairman of the busi
ness committee Capt. Triplet, with his
hands full of gold told tin m to walk
aud claim their premiums which were
paid on the spot.
The result was as follows:

manner of doing up Fairs. But as we

Daring Attempt at Robbery.—
As Mr. Burch was returning toJiis
home in Fletcherville a few evenings
since, be became aware by the steal
thy movements, of a dark figure that
his footsteps were being dogged ss be
was crossing tbe Csmpns. Appre
hending an attack, he prepared him
self by opening a small pocket-knife
the cnly weapon he had. ✓
The attack soon came. A strong
muscular negro, sprang ujion Mr. B.
who is quite an old man, aud succeed-
in choking him down. In the mean
time Mr. Burch began a vigorous
use of his knife ; which unfortunately
was too short to do the execution that
it should have done. The rascal find
ing that he had struck a gentleman
who proposed to defiod himself, took
to his heels and disappeared.
We understand that this daring
highwayman is spotted. Let him he
made an example of. We cannot af
ford to have the fair fame of our city,
suffer from the acts of such ruffians.
Remember Jurors, witnesses and
everybody else interested, that the
Superior Court of Thomas County,
convenes on next Monday. As many
will he in town from the country, we
cordially iuvite all to call at the
Times Office ou Jackson St.
Personal.—Mr. E. A. Sullivan
made us a call manday he is traveling
in the intcres of the Independent a
new paper recently started in Savan
nah. Mr. Stubbs of that popular firm
in Savannah of Groover, Stubbs & Co.
spent a day or two in the city this
week.
