Taylor and Ladsou have a corps of carpenters and painters, over hauling their building on Jackson, st, opposite the Timks office. This hand some brick store wiil be eutirely re modeled, and our young friends above named propose putting in it a first class stock of goods this fall. Dan'l McGuire is doing the painting. During the past two weeks wc have had a continuous succession of show ers, making it quite problematical as to whether the grass or cotton would get the mastery. The planters arc mak ing a gallant fight in Thomas, and wc hope will get and keep the ascendency The hands ail over the county appre ciate the delicate status of affairs, and are working like beavers late and ear ly to rescue the crop and wc have no doubt but that they will. Tuat ma Potato.—In our offiice was grown by Major Stegall, and is of the pink eye variety. It has evidently matured, as the parent eye has given birth to seven well developed potatoes, two of which are much above the usu al size, and aie joined together after the fashion of the Siamese twins. If all of the Major's potatoes turn out this way ho will not have room for them on the grounds where they are * grown. _ Any one wishing to purchase a fine new piano, can make it to their iuier- (At to consult me before purchasing. /. IL Qurnius, Wo had tho pleasure of a call this week from his Hon. Judge Harris who has been holding Court here this week.- If be is os pleasing and affable on tho bench as off, he must certainly be very popular with tho Bar. Wc are requested by the Post Mas ter to give notice that the law requires all postage to be paid on newspapers, periodicals, &c., to be paid-quarterly in advance. On weekly newspapers the postage is five cents per quarter. After the last day of this month no mail matter will be delivered upon which the postage has not been paid. Post Office regulations arc strict and we advise all to walk round and settle if they expect to get their mails promptly. Interesting Lecture at the Baitist CnuRcn.—Col. McGlashan, the Superintendent of the Baptist Sunday School, has inaugurated a new feature in our Sunday Schools. Every fourth Sunday, instead of the lessons being recited the Superintend ent, his assistant, or some one apoint- ed, lectures on the lesson. To-mor row will be the second lecture, by the Ass’t Superintendent, Mr. Kendrick, and wc hope that the occasion will prove sufficiently interesting to insure a large audience. The gentleman is a fluent speaker and has a flue subject and all who attend will no doubt be edified. Wc direct the attention of litigants and others, by the request of Sheriff' Luke, to the law governing advertise ments. We publi.-h it so that all uiay be posted, as follows; lie it enacted by tbe General Assem bly uf the State of Gx-ryia, That, from and after the passage of this act. no Sheriff, or deputy Micriffin this State, shall be required to advertise the prop erly of any defendenl in ft. fa. foi sale until the cost of such advertisement shall have been fir-t paid by the plain- fa. his agent, or attorney:— il, That when any such par ty plaintiff, or his agent, or attorney for him, shall make and file an all! la- writing that, owing lo his pov erty, he is unable to pay cost, then il shall be the duty of said Sheriff, or his deputy', to proceed as now required by law. Commencements and examinations arc the order of the day. Many a lass and laddie, have been looking to these balmy June days, ior a release fora while at least, from the daily routine of scholastic life. The eyes of the lit tle folks have fairly danced at the approach of vacation. We hearti ly wish our little friends a happy tunc; and wc trust, that they will do noth ing during the vacation, which their teachers or parents would disapprove. Remember this children, and you will resume your studies, the happier and better for having so acted. Try it, and sec if we aro not right. A Medical Wonder.—We were shown last week, by Dr. John An drews, a cancer which he had taken from the face ol Mrs. Quartern an, mother-in-law of our presiding elder. Rev. J. M. Austin. lie had worked on it just eight days before ho was able to got it cntiiely loose. (It was not done with a knife.) It lias been her, or at least first made its ap pearance, twenty-live years since, and appeared and disappeared several times until it became permanent.— She 1ms had it treated by some of the best physicians in the whole country, but has never found anything to check its rapid growth until now. The doc tor has the veritable cancer itself, iu alcohol at his office, and invites all who still bclicvo that cancers cannot he cured,to call and sec it. It has just been ten days since he look it off, and the soro is alrea Iv rapidly healing* This is a modern wonder in the in<- li- cnl world, that many physicians have claimed to do, but never did it. This, however, is not the doctors first one, he has entirely cured several, years since, and know*, they were penna- ncnlly cured for they never returned. This is certainly good news to many who, like this lady, had given up all hope, and resigned to fate, to die Tin- slow hut certain <t--:ith, which cancers are sure to produce. Everybody, es pecially the iuer< dulous, should cali and sec it, for seeing is believing. Examination at Fletcher In stitute. Yesterday morning wc attunded the examination over at Fletcher Insti tute, and we regu t that il came off the day bcfoic our publication day: lor we were highly pleased with v. hat we saw ;.nd heard, and would like to report it, unrestrained by time or space. Wc think all who were there, aud the attendance was very good, of both ladies and gentleman, will agree with us in saying that the exercises were exceedingly interesting and entertaini ng ; and conducted bv the able principal, in a man ner which plainly evinced a thor ough knowledge ol his business, and u superior tact for imparling it to his scholars for they, in every part and and study, were rigidly examined bv President Baker and others who knew the hardest questions, but the boys could not be stalled, evincing a train ing and discipline creditable to their worthy principal as well as for them selves. As we have said, the attendance was very good aud ol tho best citizens.t we feared the Court might keep some away, but we were gird to see it oth erwise, and hone the favorable opin ion almost universally expressed by those present, may encourage Prof. Moody in his untiring efforts iu behalf of this institution. Tho examination was not through when wc left at 1*2 o’clock, aii-1 we were sorry lo leave, for we expect the exercises in the afternoon were more interesting, if posisblc than in the forenoon, which was spent in examin ing classes. We suppose the speak ing «&c., took place iu the aftern >oiii which wc regre: not being able to hear, for judging irom what we saw of the boys in the forenoon, we niissc 1 quite a treat. On the whole, by what wc saw and heard we were very fa vorably impressed, as to the qualifica tions of Prof. Moody as a first da*g teacher, able and worthy to teach in schools of larger proportions. May he continue to succeed and be rightly appreciated by lb patrons, THE PARTY. Brilliant and Recherche finale to Commencement week.—Tiie DEBUT OK-THE SENIOR CLASS—SUR ROUNDED AND AD3IIRED BY HOSTS OF FRIENDS—GeORO»A AND FLOR IDA Belles—An elegant repast —And all goes merry as ▲ mar riage BELL. On Thursday eveuing although it threatened rain, Carriages and buggies were in rapid motion in different parts of the city, and those who weie favor- ith cards of invitation were mak ing their way toward the college build- ing/m Dawson street, notwithstanding the threatening aspect of the weather. We should like to be able to transfer something more enduring than pa per, the happy scenes tlr.t marked the evening ; tut we stagger at the bare thought, of attempting to paint i the slightest blush, of the bril liant and dazzling throng that were gathered there. The central figures of course, were the young ladies who gave the party, and in whose cars were still ringing the plaudits, that greeted their appearance on Tuesday evening. We opir.e however that tlitir were greeted with i-ouuds duriug the evening, that sounded equally as sweet. The Juniors fairly divided the honors of the occasion and were conspicuous for the ir beauty and mod esty. c were pleased to see a large num ber of Floridians, w ho arc patrons of the College mingling witji our people liis occasion, and we tru*t these gentlemen will return with pleasant impi i Of U rpli Conspicuous among this bevy of beauties, was a number of fair ones from the land ol flowers : whose bright ling smiles challeng u and soften- ed the most obdurate. Our friend Mr. —was perfectly carried away, and xpcct soon, to hear of him having business iu Florida. The refreshments were everything that could have bccu desired by the most fastidious. In short the occasion was a perfect suc cess, not a jar, nor a discord. With us the recollect iou of our first atten dant e upon a Commencement party at‘‘Young Female College” will ever bring up a flood of pleasing recollec tions. The Concert on Wednesday Night.—Long before the time an nounced for the coimncncemenrof the exercises, 81-2 o’clock, the large hall well filled by an audience, who showed by their quiet listening de meanor, that they were on the >/tu vice, for the first notes of melody, that was to open the Concert. From the large number of perform ers, wc find it impossible to particular ize, even were wc a competent musical critic’ aud had the space. The pro gramme as it appears below was car ried out. Mrs. Col. Young, who has charge of tho musical department of the College, superintending. Wc were struck with tho lvtnarkable pro ficiency’ exhibited by many of the smaller girls, many of whom were hardly high enough, lo see over the key board. We do not think the hall was erect ed with much regard to the law of acoustics; os it is a difficult thing to hear in the middle, or hack part ol it. This however, may he remedied, when it is plastered and ceiled. The concert closed with ‘‘Glowing Mars” hy Misses Mitchell and Taylor; when tho hoys proceeded to see their brightparticular stars home; and no doubt under the softening influence of iln: music, aud the twinkling stars over head, said some soft things in rout*.

June 18th, 1873 Messrs Editors : The Boston Bible Society held a meeting in \he Prcsby- teiian Church on Friday laatand ap pointed a public meeting of the friends of the liblc cause to be held on the 5th Sunday of August, in this place. The Council ol the Friends of Tem perance and the citizens of Boston were lectured to hy Major Gallaher of Quitman on the night of June Oth, *ub- jcbt,**Work and wait. After the ad dress he was presented with a Gold- headed cant The Masonic Fraternity have a t’.our- ishitig Lodge in this place. The Boston Debating Society dis cussed the “Cotton versus Provision,** question on last Wednesday night, aud according to the argument ad vanced, was decided in favor ot raising our provisions, Owing to the heavy find frequent rains, grass is King with some of our planters, and some of them have abandoned part of their cotton crop. Heavy rains, caterpillars and grass, make planters think of hard times, es pecially those who have bought fertili zers on time. I am sorry to say that some are complaining of spoiled oats* Expecting your Senior to do up the pic-me,-I will only say that all I have heard say anything about it, think it the best one Boston or vicinity ever witnessed. B. (Communicated) . Editors oe the Times : Last week I suggested to you that it would be a good idea, for some one compe tent to prepare a pamphlet, giving in as interesting form as possible, a histo ry of Thomas county and Thomasville, settiug forth the fertility of our soil, the variety of our products, the genial character of our climate, our market, educational, and religious facilities ; aud other matters important and in teresting to strangers and immigrants to know—and that this Pamphlet should be distributed at the State Fair, at our Fair the succeeding week, and throughout the North, South, East and West. You thought ihe sugges tion a very practical one. and upon my request, agreed to make mentioo of your next issue, my idea being to test public opinion with a view, if the idea should be generally approved to endeavor to get it up. I still iliiuk a pamphlet of this character, would be very valuable in disseminating useful iutormation, and attracting public attention which we mus«t do to gain in crease of population, and capitol. I hoped that the Enterprise, to which I am a warm friend, and which is usually so prompt in promoting every good, work, would take up aud approve the idea thus enabling us to secure it and ret to sec its article on this sub. ject in this week’s issue. The idea uated with myself, not with the Times ; and 1 trust the Enterprise will retract its strictures, feeling as sured that the Editor would not kuow- ingly perpetrate a wrong. Justice.

Wc would call the attention readers particularly lo this ad dress ; it will amply repay the perusal. Thomas has o-nteied the lists for that $1000 premium, is she going to lay supinely back and not only allow this golden opportunity to slip through her fingers, but worse still, she v attempted something, making signal failure, thereby lowering her w high stamlaid. Let ihe planters and property holders of Thomas pon- I'ell these truths. Thi- county has are opportunity, of w inning unfa ding laurels, aud crowning herself with victory, that will be as substantial in its effects, as gratifying to our citi zens at large. Cannot some of our planters show as good a live acre piece of cotton, as any in the State ? certainly that $500 premium is a sufficient inc entive. Why cannot Thomas send os good a bale of cotton, as any other county, and get that $100.* Who wants it? For the largest yield of upland cotton, on one acre, $200 is offered. Will none of our planters try for this splendid premium? The whole premium list, glitters, and sparkles, with rich and «ostly premi- u ms ; many of which may be carried off by Thomas if the \ roper effort is made. We feel every a- surancc, that if the District commiitec- go to work, and do their duty, that this County will make such an exhibition, at the approaching Fair, as shall reflect high credit upon her planters, and be a just cause cf pride to this section of the State.
