Our ability to reach the black berry son, when all editors arc supposed to be able to get a living, is thus paitial ly bridged over. Mrs. Carroll always . makes a fine exhibition at the Spring and Fall Fairs. The 24th of May will show some choice specimens from her garden and flower yard. A rousing Picnic is set down for the 2nd of May at the Miccosukic basin. Everybody will be there. If you wan t to have a pleasant time; meet the most hospitable people yon ever* met, and have a good time generally, Wc have been there and know how it is ourselves, i/on. J. L.

Adam'a mill. It la good neighborhood, and we trust they will buiAl up a flourishing School there. A Gala Day lor the Sunday School Children. IPc nre sure that oar little friends, the rompaci, brave littleanny of Sun- day School children who have been looking forwtnl for a long twelve month to the “May Day” of 77, will read the above heading with a thrill of delight. Little eyes will sparkle and hearts beat faster as they in fancy gather themselves in favorite groups in Love’s grove, abandoning them selves tor the nonce, to childish sice and pleasures. Representatives of the various schools assembled in the rooms ol the Library Association on Monday night at Ibc conclusion of the reading and adopted the following programme for Friday the 4 th day of May, upon which day they fixed for the. Union Sunday School Pic Nic; The various Schools will meet at the Presbyterian church on Friday morning, where af ter prayer and siogiug a grand proces sion will be formed, the schools ming ling as they may, and the line of march taken up for Love's Grove, where the day will be spent iu inno cent pleasures. A general table will be prepared by the united commit tees, to which the hungry lill!e army will have access at the p.opcr time.— The following Committees were »p- appointed on tables; Presbyterian. Mrs. Jos Jergcr, Mrs. Col. Mclnlyn and Mrs. Judge Alexander: Metho dist; MraDr. Ilrandon.Mrs. Cooke and Mrs. Jos Thomas: Episcopal; Mrs. Dr. Reid, Mrs. C. P. Ilanscll and Mrs. Seward: Baptist; Mrs. Col. McGItsb an, Mrs. Redden Smith and Mrs. S. J. Cassels Of course the gcrlltroen connected with the various schools will see that ample tables arc provid and all other necessary arrange nients made. Ten Nights |u A liar Uoom. This thrilling dramn was well icu- dcred at the City Hall last Friday night by the same troupe which wc had occasion to notice last week in connection wills our visit to Spring Hill. Although the weather was very inclement, the turn out was a good And a good one il should liav been;for beside the intrinsic worth ofil the object for which it was given, wa most laudable one—that of pay in; oil'the indebtedness of Sprit g //ill Church, and which wo are pleased to learn was accomplished. The young ladies and gentlemen who have giveu their time and tnlcul to this work, are deserving ol all pinise. Though ama teurs they rcude* cd the piece well,some of them displaying marked histrionic talent. Wc congratulate them,not only their efibrts and success iu ruliev- ig the church, but ou the good im- pressiou made upon llic large and in telligent audience at the City Ilall on iday night. The Komis. It is gratifying to learn that the County Commissioners arc going to see (hat the roads all over the county put in a first class order. This is another move in the dircrliou drawing additional trade to Thomas villc. We have cudeavored to show in the past, that the trade of a place hinged, to a very great extent at least on Us approaches, its roads, bridges. &c. Our far seeing Commissioners appreciate (his fact, and they are go ing to do their part toward pultiug every sectiou of the suvrouuding coun try in easy and safe communication with Thomnsvillc. Keep the boll in motion. Mr. James M. Smith, brother our esteemed townsman, Mr. S. Al exander tfmltb, is spending a short timo here among his friends and relatives. Mr. Smith among the first who blazed the way to dyflizatioa in this region. His recollections of the early settle ment of Tbomasrille are vivid and highly Interesting. VTt hope to lay some ol them before the readers the Times. Monday Kight at the Library Rooms demonstrated the wisdom of the plan adepted by the library committee to have reading some other interesting exerciser at the monthly meetings. The rooms of the Association presented a very bril liant appearance. A perfect bevy of Indies thronged them, adding their happy smiles and bright faces to the scene. It was a most bewitching tableau. Standing at one end of the hall, the flutter of turning leaves, the soft hum of words and the low, silvery laugh came floating along borne upon the aroma of flowers which filled the rooms. The readers selected for the evening were Miss Mattie Seward, 3/iss Bessie Merrill,Mr.E.H.Smilh and Mr. S.G. McLendon. The first named, Miss Seward, was unavoidably absent, much to the regret of the Committee nd the members of the Association. Mr. S. G. McLendon led off with that master piece of Prentice's. “The close of the year." Miss Bessie followed with an extract from Saxe, (Orpheus and Eurydice.) Mr. E. B. Smith clos ing with an extract from Zfenry the Eighth, (interview between Cardinal H oolsey and Cromwell.) The reading was good, eliciting hearty applause from the appreciative audience. Miss MerriU’s -rendition ol her piece was particularly fine, as was in fact all the pieces read. This opens a ucw era, and a new source of enjoyment and improvement, and one which wc doubt not will popu larize the monthly meetings and tbs institution itsclt. The Committee will proceed at once to make selections of those who are to read at the next meeting. Those who failed to attend the last meeting miss ed a rare treat They should not miss the next 7he merchants of Thomasvillc have superb stocks of goods this spring and they arc selling at bottom prices.— Competition is said to be the life, of trade. If this be true, and we believe it has never been successfully gain saved, theu this ought to be a lively place for trade. And this is one ad vantage, aud a very strong one which Tbomasville has over many other places. She has a large number of very heavy dealers who buy largely Mid sell for short profits. A fanner can come to Thomasvillc to-day, and buy goods, supplies, <tv., as cheap as they can be purchased in any town in Georgia. Our merchants arc alive to the importance of building up and in' creasing the trade of the town. To do this they know that everything must be put down to bottom prices.— And this they have done. All they ask is a trial. Tlie Fair. - ' O T Are (be merchants of TbommsvUle showing (bat Interest in the agproach- ing Fair which (beg iMflffWe do not make the inquiry to jeilccl on that wideawake and Influential class of citizens, bat for tbe purpose of arous ing them to a still deeper interest in these exhibitions. That they have in the past sdded much, very modi, to the prosperity of both town and coun ty, none can or will deny. And that the merchants have derived a corres ponding benefit than this increased prosperity is a proposition presume none will what 4s the natural sequence' mercantile community want population in town and jcoinifXy in- creaecd; do they want to see a *new and brighter era dawn; do they want to see the agricultural interest of the county put ujion a higher scale and plane; do they want to see the citizens of Thomas county become self-sup porting, thereby enabling them to indulge iu tbe luxuries of life, and upon which they make iheir best profit**? Do they want to sue all this? Then let them nut their shouldeis to the wheel, let them show that they in common willi all classes arc deeply and vitally interested in the matter. The merchants of Atlanta, Macon and other cities nppiecriafe the Value and tmi>orlnncc of those gatherings of tha people, by offering liberal special premiums aud by giving iu a variety of ways a cordial co-opcration to these organizations designed to illustrate the capacities of the country, invite immigration, and to build op (he waste places ol tbe South. JFe are sure that the public spirited merch ants of Thomasvillc need but to be re minded of the great influence which they, as a class, exert or. these organi zations, for them to decide that they will give the South Georgia A. & M. Association their hearty aud cordial support. A Repented Suggestion to the Grangers—Will They Act 1 Wo think il would be a most enjoy able feature nt the May Fair, if every Grange in this and adjoining counties would take action looking to a social reunion of that honorable order the 2!lbofMay. Wc have invited the representatives ot llic press ol Georgia to be here—and they are coming. We have asked them to assemble iu Thomasvillc on live occasion of the annual May Fair, that they might sec what this sectiou of Georgia is capa ble of producing. They have heard much ofthe wonderful capacities of South Georgia, of her progessive and public spirited citizens, and of her Fairs. Shall they bo disappointed ? It rests with the citizens of this and suirounding counties to answer.— High as their expectations arc, they ueed not be disappointed if the Gran gers and everybody else will but do their duty. Let every Grange meet at the earliest practicable day and re solve that they will attend tlic May Fair, so far as practicable, and that they will biing the first fruits of their land, and show to the assembled thou sands that their order is engaged, earnestly engaged, in bringing the country back to an era o! plenty; and that they feci aud appracintc the im portance of sustaining an institution designed to display their pioducts, nd to build up the country. II any body of citizens should feel a greater interest in these Fairs than another, surely it is Grangers. Then Gaugers to the front. We took occasion to embody these suggestions a few weeks since in the Times, but have not seen that any ac tion has been taken. We renew them with the hope that this class of our citizens may see the importance of combined action, and act promptly the matter. :!SB&SS5$?5 A* Tlie Cut grouWg city, appeared last week in (he Horning Newt, signed “Northern Visitor.” .We are pleased to Lnow that hie impressions were so pleasant and Iraet that be and nun; others me; come to see as next winter. A hearty and cordial welcome will await tbenxnt tbe Mitch ell House, and at the handa of all oar citizens. The correspondent says: Perhaps Georgians do not know for in that place and its vicinity are found countless attractions to in valids or tourists in their pursuit of enjoyment and pleasant homes.— Since the Mitchell House bat been opened visitors have flocked hither ward from tbe North daring the win ter, and, as spring appears, are taking “*e on their route home from Brown’s Patent Picture Hook is tbe latest, and most useful raven- tion we have seen. They are capable of securely holding up a lOOlbs, at the same time being highly ornamental, and very easy to place ina wall. They can be driven in a plastered without even cracking tbe plaster. In fact they are just the thing. Call on Mr. B. F. Fudge who has them for sale at 10 cents a piece. It would be a most excellent joke on tho planters of this section if a gener al European war was to break* out (and it is not improbable) patting al kind of breadstuff's, provisions, Ac., away np yonder, and send cotton down below zero. Wc say that It would be a good joke, if such was tbe case, and they flod themselves the first of next year negotiating with the West tor corn atl.o0, bacon 2o cents, and every thing else in proportion whilst cling- ing with desperation to their cotton for which they were being offered 0 or 7 cents. It would be very, laugha ble. Just try it though and see which side ot your mouth you’d laugh on. If we arc not very much mistaken, it would be a mighty sickly laugh sup plemented with a lowered underjaw. Bat try it gcullcmen. Nothing like a little fun—even if it is at your own expense. Thomasvillc Florida. At this fine hotel, we revel in all tbe good things of life, and sleep most comfortably after a walk in the pine greves or a drive out to the beau tiful plantations in tbe vicinity. The habits «nd peculiar natures of the coloyd gHostlc on these plantations «re a perpetual sbnrce of amusement and interest to Northern visitors.— Their buoyant joys, sans tone* temper ament might well teach us a lesson in bearing tbe ills ol life, and their poetic fancy is often shown in tbe pretty names the) bear, which arc sometimes slightly incongruous as to appearance and character. One little darkey, for iostancc, black 4# the ace of spaded, rejoices in tbe brf4t appellation of “Pearl Corinncand “Minerva” was the name of our foolish old cook. — “Ilannibal" was the greatest coward in the neighborhood, while “Rose,” by any other name would smell as sweet.” Dullness or enaui might be feared at a place which is ostensibly a health re^o&Ife! there la too moeh vitality and intelligence in- Tbomasville for this to occur. I will describe the en joyments of one day, when we all ad journed to the piazza of the hotel to witness a wheelbarrow race, to us a most novel performance, laughing with and at the little darkies, as they wildly aud blindly rushed at every poiul except ihc desired one. Then we visited the “Fair,” where the pret ty Georgia girls, in their little Swiss caps and aprons, were full as attrac tive as the many articles of taste and beauty .ou their tables, and the display of flowers was superb. Florida should no more be called the “Land of Flowers" than should her sister State Georgia. Indeed, dur ing a whole Florida season 1 never snw such magnificent blooms, such splendid varieties of roses, lilies, and fragrant blossom, as are here culled from Ihc gardens of Tbomasville.— Then, when the intellectual taste asks for indulgence, there is here a fine public library tilled with choice books auid all tho papers of the day. Program me—261 b. • The Ladies Memorial Association will observe decoration day,April 20th, as follows: Meeting at the Old Cemeleiy at 10 A. M.,to decorate the graves. The ladies meeting in the vicinity are re quested to bnug their floral offerings for that purpose.

We are pleased to learn that Mr. John Static and Mr. Henry Sanford have procured a lot of silk worms nod will try the experiment of successful silk culture in Thomas. It can hard ly be termed an experiment either, for silk culure in days gone by has been successfully carried on by a number of families m Thomas county. Among them wc may mention Judge James T. Hayes, Mrs. Mitchell and others. We gladly chronicle this new feature iu the varied industries which nre opening up io this county. Variety, and a greater number of pay ing industries arc what the peo ple ucod. The}* have too long bccu confined to cotton and a very few oilier products from which reve nue could be derived. As is often the case, these productions fail, or arc so low, that they are not profitable.— Hence the wisdom, nay the necessity, of greater diversity, so that all the eggs shall not be in one basket May success attend the gentlemen who have thus inaugurated and added a ucw source of reveune to this county. May many others be induced to follow their example. Some how a good many of ihe boys ;ct it into their heads that the fish bite better about the time that the Grand Jury is in session.

It is a very deep and ab struse subject, but our correspond ent handles it right welL It u too early however to predict or fore shadow the issues which wilt mark the struggle in 1880.
