Coldstone & Co’s., “Planters Store” nud examine their new stock before making their purchases. mar 22-3ro Young Female College Com mencement. As will he seen elsewhere, the un- dcrgiaduates of this flourishing female College, will be examined ill their various studies on the 19th and 20th inst. The Junior and Sophomore classes, are both large and well ad vanced in their studies; so that an in teresting examination may he expec ted, and one that will doubtless prove satisfactory, to teachers pupils, aud parents. The evening of the 24th, will be ea gerly looked to by the Seniors, at which time they will rcceaive their Di plomas. These girls for five years, have tread the intricate paths of knowledge together, an unbroken class; and now they are on the thres hold of womanhood, and of their re ward, for these long years of study. May the future which stretches out so invitingly, be hut a faint reflex of the hapiness in store for them. We spake hastily ot the examination of this class last week. In “Moral Phil osophy,” Astronomy,” Geology, and Trigonometry, they proved themselves worthy of the careful teachings of Mr. Pakcr through a loug scries of years; and it must have been peculiarly grab ifying lo that gentleman, to have wit nessed, the maturity, aud depth of thought, which they evinced through out the trying ordeal. Without detrac* ting Horn the highly creditable exam ination, iu the other branches, we inclined to thiuk that in Moral Philos ophy, they shone brightest evincing by their prompt ready answers, a per fect knowledge of; and thorough ap preciation of the great truths, left ou record liy the master minds, and spiri 1 of our own, and past ages. This part of the examination was conducted by Col. Rockwell; whose ripe scholar ship, and happy faculty of imparling knowledge, was self apparent, as the class grasped the most intricate, and* metaphysical, ideas without a mo ments hesitation. On the evening of the 25th a concert, by the Music-Scholars will be given. This Departmeut of the Collcged is under the immediate supervision of Mrs. Col. Young; and all who know any thing of that cotnplishcd lady’s musical talent, be prepared for a rare treat. The interest in the College is widenin; and deepening, and we expect to sec a large attendance. As a fitting finale to commencement week, the Sen will give a party; on the evening of the 20th; their fust; and it promises to he the occasion of the week. We notice several of the boys about town, bowiug across the street to the school girls, for the past tew days; in fact we arc all very polite lo these Mis ses. Of course we are not fish in, for and invitation, not we. A Gay Fishing Pabtt.—One evening not long since, two preacher* one editor and a genlelmcm might have been *eeu gracing the banka of the quiet Ochlockonee, beneath whose murky waters the finney host moved on in their tantalizing merriness a* though two followers of the ancient professiohls at the business, one disci ple of Faust, and one of the cleverest men in the county were not their vis itors. But the “cootcrs” they were more sociable and ‘'enterprising” than the fish, they amused us no little; we gtacefully landed out two and the pre siding Elder one, a rich scene too to see a two hundred pound presiding Elder bent over a poor little cooter preaching his funeral and helping to swell the already too full river with huge drops of perspiration. On the whole it was a gay fishing crowd, one of whom we are glad we were which. The verdict was that the fish were not mterprising the cooteis were too so ciable, and that the musquitos were still more so. The startling cry of Caterpillars comes walled on every breeze. We hope our planters will uot cry wolf un til the fold is actually invaded. Another Soda Fount. A. llomeister would call the atten tion of the public to his ice-cold Soda Svrups.

Wright offered the following res" olutions which was unanimously adopt* ATTENTION. FARMERS. The Thomas County Agricultural Society, rightly appreciating the im- poi lance of this county being repre sented; as the, leading County in this end of the State Should be, at the State Fair; have taken the right course to effect this desirable object. , As will be seen elsewhere, they have appointed a central committee with fill! powers to act; composed of our very best, and most wide awake citi zens. Let the Planters, Housewives, arti- zans, and every body respond to the stirring appeal made to them, and Thomas will cover herself, with addi tional lustre. An effort though it be but a small one, on the part of all, will without any doubt, give us the second, if not the first premium. Will the Planters come up to the work like good, true, aud wise men. Will they reflect a moment, and calcu late what it would be worth to our county, to have it announced at the great State Fair, in Macon, before tbe assembled Thousands; that TnOM- A8, is the banner county in the State. It would give us a notoriety, that we little dream of. Wc shall have more lo say on this subject, when time and space will allow. PreaiwList FIELD CROPS, OFFERED BY THE S.G.A.&M.

Hcres a charcc for persons to com promise their religious differences, by embracing them all, at once. Tiie Masonic Hall a Certain ty*.—Wc arc glad to announce that the building committee on the part of the Lodge, signed a contract to build n Lodge room on the corner of Broad and Fletcher St., with certain citizens on day before yesterday. The building is to be of the best quality of brick, 28 by 85 feet, two sto ries high (with a basement) with all the modem improvements, and is to be completed by the 1st day of Janua ry next. We congratulate the mem bers of St. Thomas Lodge on the pros pect of getting iuto a building of their own. A young man returning home a few evenings since in our quiet town, in the absence of pale Lunas’ rays, thought that be could trust to his ol factory organ, to guide his footsteps : alas for human calculations ; a neigh bor having lelt his gate open, instead ot scenting danger, he put that very useful member directly, and in violent contact with the gate, which proved to be harder than his nose, the latter was well flattened, whilst the unfeel ing wood swung back to its place. The language used on tbe occasion, was not indecorous, but it is represented as being very vigorous, embodying some of the strongest expressions in our vocabulary. He says thaljhe don’t know why it ii that people cannot swing their gates on the inside. His sweetheart had bet ter furnish him with a lantern the next dark night Whenever he hears a gate bang now, he claps his hand in- stinetlively to his nose. Fletcher Institute.

This as far as we are concerned, we pledge our readers not to do, whosoever the offenders may he. An instance of Sabbath breaking, lost Sunday evening, was witnessed on one of our principal thoroughfares, (aud that too by a gentleman standing well iu tlftc community and in his church) which wc hope, will never be seen again iu the streets of Thomas- ille. v.
