So far as we can learn, the crops in
Thomas county are doing well A
splendid corn crop is assured, whilst
the prospect for cotton is very flatter-'

weeks more Thomas county will come
to the front with an, a. 1. cotton crop.
In conversation with persons, from
•different portions of the county this
week, wc are pleased to learn, that a
very general iuterest is being manifes

being well represented, in the ap
proaching State Fair.

expense.

the fair appearance of Broad street,
shall give place to one magnificent
block of two story buildings.
(COMMUNICATED.)
Thomasville July 18,1873.
Editors Times: I sec in the last
issue of the Southern Enterprise, a
communication under the signature of
u Sunday School Teachers,” in regard
to your article last week about the
church music, choir, &c. Now 1 sim
ply want to say that I am one of the
teachers in the Methodist Sabbath
School, and my opinion aliout ihe
matter spoken of. is decidedly con
flicting with the ideas advanced by
then), therefore, as the unlimited and
indefinite way in which they signed
themselves, would leave the iinprt is-
ion with those not knowing any bet
ter, that all of the school teachers ap
proved of the ideas expressed in that
article. I would say that wc object t<
the seeming presumption, but wc ex
pect simply thoughtlessness, in them
signing “Sunday School Teachers’' to
any such ideas, for 1 think if a vote of
the teachers, on the proposition ad
vanced but few could be found who
would vote for it; therefore, I think if
they had made their signature more
deflnito, as to the number of Teachers,
they would have done more justice to
the other teachers and school, and
their modem ideas. I don’t propose
to try to answer them, because I think
it unnecessary, and at the same time-
poor fellows—while they did the best
that could have been done, with the
meager force of arguments to be gath
ered in sustaining their stand, 1 have
not yet found any point sufficient to
attack. Their main idea about, the
taking of the orgau from the Sabbath
School, was advanced by you in your
article, and I rather arguo with you,
in the sense in which you propose to
dispense with it in the Sabbath School,
that Is if it is a sin in church, it is in
Sabbath School, but not because it
does not add to the interest of the
School, that idea won’t do. I have
seen it tried, without the organ and
with it, and with all respect to their
opinion, I must differ with them, but
as we have even said more than we
intended we will close, hoping that
your idea of the much needed im
provement in our church music may
yet be realized, and that the idea of
your opponents of dis-orr/an-izing the
Sabbath School may ncvci he, I re
main,
One of the Teachers from the
other side.
I don’t care to write an article on it
but I fully agree with you in the above!

as a* first apprehended by his friends.

Taking the down passenger train at
7.30 o’clock on Monday night, we sped
away through the fast gathering
shades of evening. Flitting by the
weird forms and scenes, wove by
the struggling moonbeams, as they
threw their soft pale light through
forest and hammock; Conductor Pow
ell safely landed us at Valdosta at 10
P. M. Everything was still, and
darkness held undisputed sway, ex
cept the glimmer of an occasional
light in some parlor window; where
doubtless some fond couple sat “build
ing castles in the air,” unconscious of
the iron horse, as he dashed into the
quiet town with a shnek, scattering
volumes of burning cinders from his
nostrils. We leave our young friends
to their bright dreams of the future,
and seek rest with mine host Allen, of
the Stuart nouse.
Wc were pleased to note many evi
dences of improvement, in our neigh
boring town. They will soon have a
fine, commodious Court House com
pleted; just below which Mess. McKay
are putting up two large brick stores,
two stories high. Valdosta Is healthy
and surrounded by a splendid country;
and ought to be ta it is, one among
the most flourishing towns on the
Gulf Road.
By 9 o’clock, the depot and sur
rounding space was filled with a large
orderly crowd, eagerly watching lor
the approach of the train, which soon
came in sight, much to the relief of
one little fellow who was fearful that
something would happen to the train
“that very morning.” Soon every
one was comfortably seated, (some
thing unusual on an excursion train)
and baskets properly stored away.
On the arrival of the train at Blue
Spring. Brooks and Quitman greet-
od Loivudes and Valdosta, with a
burst of music, from the Quitman Cor
net Band. The Band played a num
ber of their popular, and well reudered
pieces during the day, adding largely
o the pleasu e of ihe occasion. We
»ut express the opinion « f all when we
nay that sweeter, or liner music we
lave never listened to.
I was a very pleasing and happy
•dght, to see the citizens of the two
uijoining counties, and neighboring
owns mingling together; wearing the
tadges of total ahs inence, and quaf
fing only .the pure liquid, distilled iu
nature’s vast subterranean distillery.
The Temperance order has done much,
and great good in the past; may it
never stop short of reclaiming the iu6t.
uuforlunatc, in our broad land
A splendid collation was spread,
and the most unbounded hospitality
reigned; everything was in profusion,
and the greatest gormandizer on the
ground must have been satisfied with
the bill of fare.
The array of beauty, was simply be
wildering. We have only an indistinct
and confused recollection of spark
ling eyes, waving ringlets, sunny curl*,
dimpled chius, rosy cheeks and ele
gant, graceful form-*, that charmed the
beholder into abject submission at
sight. Lowndes ami Brooks vied with
each other in the beauty of their la
dies, and the gallantry of their gen
tlemen: whilst Florida, with her warm
tropical clime, was represented by
some rare and beautiful flowers; trans
planted temporarily, from that won
drous land of beauty'.
Wc acknowledge our obligations to
Mr. Y , for an opportunity of
reaching Quitman, which we did in
cotnpauy with the gay Cornets, who
made the very forests ring with their
melody. We cannot allow this oppor
tunity to pass, without paying a trib
ute to Billy —*s ’vocal powers. They
arc good.
We reached Quitman too late to see
much of our thriving neighbor, but
pur|>osc to drop in on our clever co
te ntpor a rigs, at that place soon and
apeud a day. Quitman is a live place,
and boasts justly of many first class
huriucss men. Site is gradually ab
sorbing a large po.tiou of ihe Florida
trade, that lies contiguous to Brooks,
and will no doubt, ere long, build up
a splendid, permanent trade. May
success crown our little ambitious
neighbor.
In conclusion, the recollection of
our trip, will be carefully garnered
ihe store house of memory, whilst the
bright winning smiles and hupp} laces
ill remain photographed for long
wars to come, on the tablets of mem-
ory.

The Concert.—We spoke last
week indefinitely of the concert which
the ladies are getting up, for the ben
efit of, the Band. We are glad to state
now that it will certainly come off
next Tuesday evening, and from what
we have seen of the preparations, the
pieces selected to play, and the char
acters, we are sore that it will be a
highly entertaining affair and a gen
eral success.
Slasher and Crasher,” which is one
of ti e most popular plays with pro
fessionals, and in fact the most enter
taining and laughable piece we have
ever seen played, will be rendered,
and from the characters selected for
the parts, we feel confident in seeing
it played as well as we ever saw it
done by professional ac’ors.
Willie Hopkins, who is taking an
active part, informed us that we had
been assign..d a part very important
in the play, of Blowhard. Well,
all right, tliauk you Willie, we’ll try
and sustain our reputation at least as
Mr. Blowhard, bu* we roust do it iu
our way, not on the stage, but through
our old goose quill, and we can’t blow
loo hard for such a laudable enterprise,
and wish we had a little more time to
practice our part But we would say
to the people, the country people too,
that they should encourage this, for
hut few would consent to l»e without
a band. It is a get up our town, and
adds very materially to every public
occasion we have, in which tho couu-
try people as well as town, arc interest
ed. So we hope to see a g*-^>d number
of them in. We hope the house will be
crowded, and feel sure that all who go
will get ^'aluo received. Exit Blow
hard.
Burglar Arrested.— It will be
remembered, that a store house was
robbed and attempted to be fired,
some two weeks ago in. Camilla.
The party was “ spotted.” but until
yesterday, has been enjoying “eman
cipation.”

A Splendid Number.
The publishers of the Soutiiern
Musical Journal are now their own
printers, and in the July number, just
at hand, gives us a fine specimen of
typography, which we take pleasure
in noticiug. In its editorial, literary,
and musical deportments, the Journal
is fully the equal to any similiar publi
cation in tho U. S., and in its elegunt
new dress (with new type, Itorders,
headings, cuts throughout.) and fault
less, typography, we pronounce it also
the Handsomest.
The July number besides a large
amount of interesting reading matter
contains two fine pieces of music “Sil-
’ Shower,” an instrumental piece
and “The Beautiful River.”
The latter piece a perfect gem and
well worth the price of subscription.
Whose heart lias not thrilled as vol
umes of sweet childish voices have

has floated from out the thousands of
