Broad atreet still looks dreary, but we hope it will not be long until, build' ing is commenced, the biick.is all the delay and the prospects afe that there will be plenty of them soon. A Good Idka.—We notice the Coun cil have authorized the digging of hvo new cisterns on Broad street, one Tie- tween Jackson and Fletcher, and the other between Jefferson and Jackson.

Ice always on hqnd, and for sale in quan tities te suit purchasers. nprillO If. Great Inducements to Pur chasers.—As the season is drawing to a close, wo shall offer Dry Goods and everything else in our line at re duced prices. Ladies and gentlemen aio invited to call and convince them selves. Very Respectfully, I. LEV Y july5-3t For the last few days fire insurance ngonls have been quite busy in town. Mess. Ainsworth & Finn are again right side up, at their old staud. Tuesday was the regular parade day for the Vigil ants, and they were out on drill. Sunday ScnooL Item.—Last Sun day alittle girl,having heard much talk of the cholera and its fatality,remarked to her teacher, “did you know that the cholera wasiu town?” *No, says the teacher, is it?’ “Ycb, Mr ’s calf died with it yesterday. Give her two extra tickets. Concert.—We understand thnta project is on foot amougst the ladies, to get up a concert for the bencli: of the Band—to help get them new in struments. Hus is a good Idea, and we wish them abundant success. But when the lollies put their heads to gether, something has got to be did, and its bound to be a success. Painful Accident.—We regret to learn that Mr. Bass, the popular young salesman in the house ot Ains worth & Finn, accidentally shot him self through the flesh part of (he 1c just below the knee, ou Thursday morning. The wound, although pain ful, is not at all dangerous. We hope see our young friend out very soon. Most of out friends who were burn ed out arc gelling thoroughly under headway again, and their customers ill find them at their new stands, oikiug like beavers. Thoniasvdle icrchants are a plucky set—burn them out at one place, and they are found next day in another. Energy will tell. Dr. Andrews has in the last week or so received several calls to treat caucers, and has taken them iu hand The glorious “fourth” passed off as any other day here. Too hot guess for patriotic demonstrations. A Curiosity.—Wo saw a two horse wagon loard of corn, in the car, town the other day. Jt was quite curiosity. Frying size chickens are bccomii very plentiful in town now; notwith standing, the conference was held heic. Messrs. Taylor & Ladson have moved into their new quarters, and look very snug. Jackson street will come out ycL ^ “Jo” has made some improvements in his back yard very much needed. We are glad .we have such enterprising neighbors. Fishing is becoming more popular since tlic fire, as sonic who were burned out arc too iudustrous to l*c idle, they pass the time fishing. Mr. J. T. Phillips has something to say elsewhere, in regard to those ex cellent books he is selling. They arc first class works all of them, and are sold at astonishing low figures. See him uud get one. By request, we this week devote a good portion of our inside space, to the publication ot the Stale School Commissioner, Orr*s letter, which will be found interesting to all interested in school matters. 81000 Reward.—Wo see that the city Council have offered a reward of 81000 for the apprelicusiou and deliv ery to the town authorities, of the per son or persons, who set fire to the town ou the 30th, with proof to conv Good Meal.—Luther Thompson, notwitb standing the fact that he has losl his weasel skin, and hasn’t got any money now, will continue to make, as he usually does, good meal. When your want good meal go and seo him. jnlyl2.lt. We arc pleased to chronicle the fact that Mr. B. Goldberg is adding another story to his building on Broad street. Another story on the already handsome brick edifice, Will give i he building a very handsome, command ing, and attractive appearance. Mr. Goldberg's old customers find him in his two story brick, at the same old stand about the first of Au gust, ready to cater their wauls and wishes. Alligator.—A fishing party, last Tuesday evening came home from the Oehloekonec with a huge aligalor. They caught him in a net while si in- lassoed him with a rope and tied him to a tree, til they got ready to leave, when they drug him to Ooli- lockonec station, put him ou the train and brought him to town. He died however, before they start ed with him and they could not bring him alive as they intcudcd. 21c was a huge fellow, measured 0 1-2 f* et. Willie Hopkins had him in charge aud as going to save his skin. A New Trick.—IVo were show by Lutncr Thompson the other day new but simple trick. Which though say simple is a good thing, :.nd a great labor savor. It was a new plan to weather board a house; simply a groove on one side of each plank, whereby, it is made to fit, and in putting up the trouble of fitting and ;uagcing, nails &c. is done away with, ,ud after you start all you have to do is to go ahead and nail as fast as \ ou can get the plank up. It is au ing« ni- ous trick, and will save much lime and labor to the carpeuter. Wc may not have described it correctly, but < all and sec it, and you can tc about it. Mil R. E. Cobb.—Wc stated last week that Mr. Robt. E. Cobb, was in town looking after our building pros pects, and wc arc glad to state that whether he made any engagement or not. lie has leased some land li .m Col. McIntyre, and will be back ! -re iu a few days with hands and go to work right away making brick. Kit .ty ing what wc do of Mr. C’obb, wc bail this as a good thing for Thomasvide, and hope he may he cncoura. ed, and patronized; and are muc lie .ill give entire satisfaction whenever tr od. It is probable that he will pennant nt- ly locate here, and if he docs, lie will make a good citizen. Meeting of the Tboma* County Agricultural Society on Tues day last. A, motion was made that a called -meeting of the Thomas County Agri cultural society, be held on Thursday the last day of July, for the purpose of receiving reports from the various sub-committees in the different dis tricts in the county. These commit tees have been notified to make a full report as to what they can do in their respective districts, towards filling out the entry list of Thomas county in the approaching State Fair. The action of the Society will be bailed ou these reports, and upon them will be determined whether or not Thomas county shall, enter the list vvitb other counties, for the truly magnificent prizes offered by the State Society. It is earnestly request ed, that each committee, through its chairman, will report fully and promptly on the last Thursday,.so that difiuitc * action may be taken at that time. We will take this occasion to urj upon the planters of this county, the 'vital importai.ee of placing Thomas in a position where she ■cannot only successfully compete with any other county iu the Mate, but whereby the display of her various products, she shall attract to her broad fertile sec tions of land, any from other sections fora home. It Thomas county, will but make the i ffort, there is no sort of doubt, but that she will make an liibiiiou that will be highly credita ble.' This is an opportunity that we may not have again soon. Let us not from mere aj a thy and supincue.s^ forfeit the golden opportunity. not a’ll'ord just to drift along the tide and c irri nt of eveuts—they are loo slow—ive will be passed. Let onward and upward be our pourse; and then if wc have but done our du*y, may inscribe Excelsior on our peaceful banner of agriculture, and see it float proudly over all, marking old Thomas as the banner county in Georgia. 'cc.—It is dry an’t rest, the Weather chops now and hoi til you thermomelor, *_ct» up to* 03, in the shade, very often in the afternoon. It fine on the crops though, and the farmers are making good use of tlio to help kill the grass. We believe from t we have seen, the corn crop will be fine, and with the splendid oat crop made, we hope but little will have to be bought. Cotton looks very but ohr experience is that very little can be judged <>t what, a crop may turn out. no mailer how well it looks Watenncllons are about all we have to liven oar streets just nowr. This trade Is brisk, especially amongst the darkeys. Some of tlie white folks are afraid of Cholera and don’t eat th« m They run from five cents to twenty st«- New Citizens.—We have inadver tantly failed to notice the tact, that Mess. Goode Sc, McStvain have loca ted here, permanently. They have been here sonic weeks prospecting, and, as all who come here to look, were so pleased that they have deci ded to cast their lot with us. Well, here's our hand, young men, aud our earnest wishes for the realization of your most sanguine hepes. They arc both well recommended, as honest ami high-minded gentlemen. Wc have known Mr. Goode from reputa tion for sonic time, aud we have al ways heard him spoken of most favor ably. They come to practice law, and will occupy one of the room- up stairs next to the Times office. So they will be up with the times. Again we welcome them as a valuable acqui sition, socially and professionally, to our community. Ocr Faiu^Fkemivm List.—We have commenced w ork on tlic premium list and will during this month finish it, aud now wc would say to our business men this is a tine opportunity to *»ive your business a good circulation, for little money, besides patronizing home institutions. We have gone to the cxjHmse to prepare to do such work, and are going to do this here, aud uot send it away as heretofore to be done. We propose to get it up in as good style a9 it ever was gotteu out in, two thousand copies will be issued, and thoroughly distributed; and we want every buMUess in Thomasvfile represented. Besides the advantage to the advertiser, he is contributing to the fair, for wc charge them nothing for the job and depend on our a«i ver- liscments to pay for it. So show your bberality now, as well as your enter prise. The price is 820, dollars for a page 810, for a half, and $3, for a qdar ter. A clever oi fer.—We learnfby culent) that during our late fire, as soon as our neighbor fireman of Bain- bridge learned of the extent ofthc fire, they telegraphed that if any assistance was needed, they would, by the return train (extra), send fifty men and the engine to give any assistance they could. This was n noble offer for our Bainbriilgc neighbors, and although they ciflild not assist us, we assure them that their thoughtfulness and kindness is appreciated by the citizens of Thomasvillc. and will ever be grate fully remembered. Om cxcuso lor mentioning this at this late hour is. that wo never heard of it before. Whoever received the dispatch kept it :i secret—afraid it would get out. Wc took \ **hort drive the other evening to see sonic of the growing crops around town : pissing one of tho places of K. T. McLean, Esq., one of ir most successful young planters, c noticed th.it he had bis grass cor- ;red, and reduced to a very small inter at that The crops of Messrs. Johnson, Spmr, and A mold. looks well, whilst the smaller crops of the thrifty freci men, who hav< settled along the Colic road, show considerable care in tiling- and looks well. Mi T. C. Mitchell, is making some sub>tautial improvements just beyond the Fair Gioti’ids, which will add ma terially, to the attracti-ms of that al- rca ly, very hi autiful part ot our town. Wc drove <»ut by the McKinnon place, now ow ned and cultivated by our esteemedonferroc, Mr. John Char* tain. This crop *ho\vcl cnrefill culti vation. and looked well, demonstrating tha; Mr. C. understand* runniug a farm, as well ns conducting a newspa per. With t ic gathering shades of evening, we returned impressed with That Choir.—We mean- the one organized afthe M. E. Chnrch some time since. Where Is it? They did well enough for a while, and do when they can be gotten together now, but keeping them together and getting them to interest themselves is the tug of war. We say it now without fear of succeasftal contradiction, that with out the accompaniment of instrument al music, it carft be done. The ladies however be it said to their credit have lost no effort to try aud keep it alive; “music (instrumental) hath charms” that we think would, in this case, surpass the efforts of even the ladies in keeping up a church choir. To be plain wc say adopt the use of the organ in our* church music.. Or ganize a choir, (which can then be done,) put it in charge or under Ilia supervision and direction of the, Pas tor, and wc will guarantee as soul- stirring aud pretty church music here as any place in Georgia. Also, that in six weeks the most prejudiced against it will succumb to the “pressure” of its swci l melodies, and admit that We sliould have hail it long ago. Look at the addition it makes in Sab bath school music, we dare say it would add quite as much to the church; and we had as well use it in church as sabbath school for if wiong to u.-e it in church, certainly the sab bath school is equally as sacred a placo and the minds of the young easily in fluenced, to favor its use when they grow up. So why not use it in church, onteud that if it is a sin in church, in sabbath school. We are tired of such poor church music as we have at lac melhodist church, especially when ilit? in our power to do bettcr ; and only kept down by perhaps some clev- cl 1 members whom we think could be cosily converted, if they would but try it a while. Uncle Sam Anthony who every body knows to be one of the best men m the conference, for a long time said he would not preach in a church with an Organ in it; but now iu liis own church they have one, aud still as good a man as ever, (au«i happier wc think,) preaches as well, and enjoys just as much rcligiou. It is all bosh about it ruining the chuicli; it will make it. Show us two churches in one place, both of tho name denomination, with equal ability pulpit, one with an organ, and line church music, and the other with out, aud the usual dragging music, aud we venture tho congregation of the first will double the latter. We think any means to draw a congregation right; for others than the members of the church, should be preached to; “tlie wicked and not the righteous,”*says Christ. Wo would like to sec steps taken at ono to use the orgau, either by vote of the church or otherwise. But any- wav, let us have a little music. The Washington Chronicle, of the lOtii alt, says * ** “Thf weeping willows at Arlington have grown from slips cot from Pope’s celebrated wiUow*t£tTwrckenham, and brought to this country at the begin ning of the revolutionary war by a British officer. He gave them to John Park Curtis, the father of George Washington Park Curtis, who after wards transplanted them to Arlington. He was very proud of them, and used to send slips of them'to noted literary persons.

Does Advertising Pay.—This que? tiou. wc thought, was long ago an swered favorably b}* the most success ful h ud experienced business men of the world, but lately wc have known it doubted; yes, disapproved of, and by who? A newspaper; an institution whose business il is, and l»y which it, live.-. Sliauge is it not? One of our live-1 aud most enterprising, and as much interested, citizens proposed to advertise Thomasvillc, as a winter re sort for the thousands who, every ter flee from the northern waiter, and theieby by bring into our midst thou sands of dollars, which we do uot now get. Ought uot such a move to be inet with a hearty approval by every body? It should, but is opposed, pud by who? It is needless for us to say. But that's neither here nor there.— There is no doubt but what it would be u move in the right direction lor Thomasvillc. We have advnntagi here, not excelled, for a wiuter resort, and all we have to do, is to let it be kno wn, ami get the people to try it We are glad to sec it is already start ed. Some have wintered here, and pronounce our climate superior to the St. Johns, for pulminary diseases and more pleasant even. With the se fact-* before us, is it wise to set our. selves down and fold our hands, when these invaluable advantages are with in our reach? .We think if Thoraas- villo would spend 8500, iu advertising our advantages this fall, either by pamphlet or otherwise, in the North and West, would pay as well as any investment site could make. Adver tise in several leading Northern and western papers, would be a good idea, if the pamphlet don’t set so well, any way will do good. Why do these Northern spgngs advertise their ad- van tages, to the people of this section?

The practice of placing a block agaiu6t one siJe of tue throat aud cn- denvering to break the obstruction with a mallet, as is sometime* prac ticed, is simply brutal. One of the sim- plcnt aud at the same tima most effi- cious remedies is to give a half pint of lar-I oil or melted lard, by drawing out the animal's tongue, raising the nc-ad anti administering from a thick bottle. Th e lubricates the gullet, sickens the stomach, relaxes the muscles of the throat, and in coughing, the lodged suLstance will generally pass either up down. if the choking has existed so long that inflamation of the throat has en sue-1. resort must be had to the pro- bang, any flexible tod, either whale- bone, vulcanized rubber, &c, with a sponge or soft substance affixed to the end. Introduce the soft end into the throat, holding the animal's head up, aud the obstruction being reached. pr« ss it firmly down at any risk; for it is now a case of life or death. To relieve the inflamation. apply a slippery-elm poultice, keeping it in clo-e con tack with the throat by secu ring the folds in which it is placed by me an* of cords to the horns; keep, ing the animal op light food, assisted with linseed tea, until the inflamation is subdued. • Ac.
