cided whether or not the Company will

Work at lbs rark.
The Boad Commissioners of the coon,
ty have oonaented to allow tbe cjiam
gang to do one week’s work at the Park
to aaaist in getting the ground* ready
for the Fair. Tbe time will be taken
from the city’s allotment of six months,
to bo deducted from the time they
would otherwise have worked on the
streets. It ta probable tho gang will be
placod in tho Park next week. Their
attention will be devoted mostly to the
raoo-traok, as it i* very important that
it should be spoedily pat in the best of
order, and a good deal of work upon it
remains still unfinished.
The Jonsa County Bale uf Cotton.
The Jones oounty bale of ootton, which
waa raffled on Monday last, and won by
Mr. A. Baddingfield and Mr. J. H. Camp
bell, netted ninety dollars for the Hood
fund. Mr. J. H. Campbell, who was
the fortunate winner also of one half ot
the bale of sheeting donated to the same
fund, when the raffle was made np for
tho halo of cotton, generously took ten
chanoe* for the Hood children, so that
If either of these won the bale, it would
still go for tho benefit of the fund. One
of these chances won ono-half of the
bale, and it Is to be diposed ot and the
prooeods go oe originally intended by the
donors.
ravins Poll Tax.
Since the resolution of the Board ot
Education in regard to the payment of
poll tax for 1878 by the patrons of the
pnblio schools, by which the children of
those only will bo allowed to attend who
have paid the tax, a very large number
have come forward and settled their in
debtedness with the county for that year.
No one scem9 to question seriously tbe
right of the Board to impose this restric
tion elnoe tbe poll tax goes direotly to
the support of the schools. They are
unwilling also to let so small an amount
debar their children from the benefits of
oar excellent school system. The regu
lation ia an excellent one, and we hope it
Will be euforoed. By this means only
oan some of the reluotants be induced to
make this contribution to support the
existing order of things.
The City Bridge.
Wo have taken occasion several times
reoentlyof calling attention of the au
thorities to the condition of tne flooring
aid approaches ot the oity bridge across
the Ocmnlgee river. These have been
entirely disregarded.and the bridge al
lowed to remain in a highly dangerous
oondition for pedestrians. On Wednes
day last a lady of East Macon came near
having a serious accident befall her by
inadvertently steppin A into a hole in the
sidewalk on the down-stream side of the
bridge. She narrowly escaped a broken
limb. A few days previous, an old gen
tleman of East Macon came near being
serionaly injured in a similar manner.
Tbe condition of the bridge has been, we
understand, officially reported and shoold
be repaired at once. If it is not, a suit
tor damages will be a consequence, very
naturally to be looked for. The road
way .of the structure is all ri A ht-

gratitude.
The titty Bonds.
Mayor Hoff while In New York looked
thoroughly into the subjeot of the print
ing of tho oity bond*. The question whetfl.
er they should be lithographed or engra
ved waa investigated and considered.
The engraving is much more expensive
than lithographing. Tne advantages of
the engraving however, is the bonds aie
much less easily counterfeited. Tho
offer made by the American Bank Note
Company,the beat company in Now York,
was $2,000 for engraving the bonds.
The number of bonds to be issued
fourteen hundred, and this job is pio-
nonnoed the most complicated, and Uf»
gsst ever offeied In New York by a State
or corporation. The bond pi
were surprised at the conditions, and
say that they never yet exeouted a bond
on which the aot creating it was reqou
ed to be printed; bad never executed a
lot of bonds with so many coupons,
nor so many denominations in a lot of
their number now issued in each denoiu.
ination requiring an important change
in the plate. All of the first oUbs estab
lishments wbieh do such work were visit
ed, and none can oomplete the work be
fore the 10th of November. After that
date these bends will have to be sign
ed by the Mayor once, and by the
Treasurer of the oity one hundred and
twenty-one times on each bond. This
will make 169,521 signatures. The bonds
are to be turned over to the commis
sioners on the 1st of Jannary, and it will
require some very active work to have
them ready. In consequence of the
charge for their execation being so mnoh
greater than was at first estimated
Mayor Huff preferred to award the con
tract to no one until the propositions re
ceived had been submitted to the Board
of Aldermen.
Bxcnrslenbr the Central Bead.
The Central railroad will take on the
svei-iug of the 8tb instant an excursion
to Savannah to attend the Jasper Centen
nial. An attractive advertisement ap
pears elsewhere setting forth the pleas
ures and attractions of the exoursion.
Tbe rotes of fare have bee a reduced to
four dollars for the round trip, and this
low rate will no doubt attrset a large
crowd. In Savannah, on the occasion of
tbe Centennial, in addition to the mili
tary pageant and the oration by Senator
Gordon, there will at night be a grand
illumination and pjroteohmc display.
Rifle contents and regalias will also afford
addii.onal attraotiona to the lovers of
those sports. The tickets on the Cen
tral will be good from the 6th to the I2th
instant iaclosive, which willailow ample
time to folly enjoy not only the Centen
nial. but to see the beauties of Savannah.
Tbs oity is particularly attractive at tbis
season of the year. While the majority
of those who take this routs will go down
with the psrty on tbe evening of the 8th,
exenrsionisU have the privilege of taking
advantage of the low rates any time with
in jbe dates named.
Col. Wailioy Meets With
Borlouw Aocldont.
Wo regret to learn that Col. W.fiL. Wad
ley, President of the Central Bailroad,
met with a serious accident yesterday,
while ooming to the oity from his place
at Bolingbroke, by private conveyance.
Some work had been done on tne shoes
of his horse whioh was not satisfactory.
At Biley’s Springs, tnree miles from
the oity on the Vineville road, he stepped
from the baggy to examine the work,
when tho horse kicked, striking both of
his legs and breaking both bones in one
and badly gashing .the other. Both
bones of the leg below the knee are bro
ken. The other limb was last evening so
much swollen that it was Impossible to
tell whether It was also broken or not.
He was carried to Captain Bxouls. Hr.
Mettaner was summoned, and admins-
ered necessary relief and set the broken
limb. Mr. Wadley was in great pain last
evening. We hope he may speedily re
cover.
Horses for tbe Pair.
Tho racing stock to be present at tbe
State Fair is beginning to arrive. A
number of horses are now in training in
tbe city, and by the time the exposition
opens there will be more fine stock to go
on the track at the Pork than has evur
been known before. At the old Confed
erate Laboratory, on the Forsych Boad,
Mr. Dennis Long and James Qiokey
have in training four horses, among
whioh are Bay Stranger and Clifton. Tne
horses are being thoroughly trained, and
are making satisfactory progress. The
traok at the Laboratory, however, is very
much ont of order, and is only used for
exeroise. The speeding is done either at
the Park or on the stretches of good
road in and around Vineville. Some of
these horsee give good promise of making
good time when placed on the elipBe of
the Park. They are all trotters.
At the Park Mr. John Marr has in
training two running horses and a trot
ter, whioh seem to be doing well. The
traok is used for their exercise and speed
ing. It is not yet in first-class order,
but is being thoroughly repaired under
the personal directions of Mr. Marr, who,
however, makes no charge for his ser.

HOUSTON COUNTY FAIB.
A Fise Display and a SneccaslBl
Fair.
Yeetsrday and on the day previous the
Houston County Fair took place in Perry.
This ia the third annual fair of the Hous
ton County Fair Association,and each ex
hibition has somewhat cxeelled the otfc-
until the one that has just closed was
at once creditable to the oounty and all
interested. The fair ia held in a very
suitable grove in the midst of the town.
All Perry turns ont to these fairs and they
are among of the grand events of the year.
Yesterday, besides the youth and beauty,
and the solid worth of Perry.the grounds
were thronged with a goodly attendance
from Hawkinsrille, Fort Valley, Mar-
shallville, Haynesville and the surround
jpg country.
The interest taken in tha fair is net
confined to Houston county, and exhibits
were to bo seen from Pulaski, Macon
and Dooly eonntiee. The grand stand
was throughout the day crowded with
young people, all of whom seemed to en
joy tho occasion to the utmost. The ex
hibitions were arranged in separate de
partments. Skirting the enclosure of
the grounds were ooopa for poultry, and
within them were some fine exhibits of
fancy fowls, geese and ducks. This de
partment wss really well represented, and
did tho general exhibition oonsiderabls
credit.
AGRICULTURAL DBPJLBTMKNT.
Under a lofty stand, especially devoted
to tho purpose, was arranged the agricul
tural display. Here were some of the
finest field crops we have ever seen
at a county fair. Immense stalks of sugar
cane, with their banner-like foliage wav
ing from their tops, showed that the soil
and climate of Houston oounty is well
adapted to its productions. Cotton stalks,
tho length of which we did not compute,
weie suspended around the building.
Some well cured aides and hams were to
to be seen, almost as white as the best
Western meats.
Messrs. Oooper and Staley exhibited
some superior rust proof-wheat on which
they took a premium. The seed was from
Mr. Hardaway, of Tnomaeville, mention
of whose wheat baa been made in this
paper. The exhibitors Inform ua that
this kind of wheBt waa particularly adap
ted to this region of the State and was
tbe only alsolutely rust-proof variety
they had ever cultivated. Houston
county raises a large amount of wheat,
especially on.her red lands. This display
was better than last year’s.
Among the curiosities in this hall
a stuffed rattlesnake some four or five feet
in length, killed three days before the
fair, three miles from.Perry by Mr. G. B.
Market. Another crop which promises
to be a good one in tho fntore is the to
bacco yield. Leaf tobacco three feet in
length depended from the beams of the
building. One of the interesting displays
was made by Mrs. Judge Holtzclaw, con
sisting of fifty-eix varieties of vegetables, 1
All the well-known garden vegetables
were present and many others which are
rare in this section of the State.
Mr. S. H. Rumph, of the Willow Lake
Nurseries, of MaraballviUe, made a very
pretty exhibit of some of tbe largest,
ruddiest apples of the Pryor, Carter’s
Blue and Buncombe varieties, preserved
fruits, vegetables and other products of
his nursery.
In field crops Mr. C. D. Garr took the
premium for the best bale of cotton.
There were quite a cumber of contestants.
In tbe stock department there were
thirty or fort; stalls'occupied by some of
the best home raised stock to be found in
any Georgia county. Mr. W. F. McGe-
bee, of Houston county, had the largest
lot of cattle on exhibition. His Bramah
cows and ball attracted tbe attention of
all the farmers on the grounds. We un
derstand- he has been offered one hun
dred and fifty dollars for throe bead of
these cattle.
Mr. Summerfleld, of Doaly county, had
a oolt on exhibition, whioh was a little
beauty.
Captain U. M. Gunn, of Byron, made
a large and very creditable display of
horses end colts,
Mr. P. D. Gnrr took the premium for
the best saddle horse.
Mr. G. W. Jordon, Jr., of Hawkinsville,
was awarded the bine ribbon for the best
horse in harness on the grounds.
For the best doable and single mules,
Captain H. L. Deanard took the award-
Mr. T. M. Butuer wa3 awarded several
premiums on his fine stock exhibition.
The most attractive dislpay, however,
waa in the hall devoted to *the exhibition
of domestio manufacture, fancy work,
flowers and tbe fine arts. At tho upper
end of the boll the floral display was ex
cellent.
Perry ia noted for its beautiful flowers,
and there they are cultivated in their full
and perfeot beauty. Each corner of the
halt was filled witn a pyramid of foliage
plants from the garden of Mrs. H. M.
Holtzclaw. Among them were noted tbe
ooral] cactus, tbe blushing, bluffy by
bisons, tbe night blooming ceisas, and
other rare plants. The out flower dis
play however, presented a more brilliant
array of colors. Mrs. George H. White,
Mrs. C. 0. Duncan, Mrs. T. M. Eillen
and Mrs. H. M. Holtzclaw, made elegant
exhibitions, tho latter’s especially so,
and to it was awarded the bine ribbon.
Tne stook display was very good.
Some beautiful baggy and saddle horses
were exhibited in the stook ring. To
ward the end of tbe procession was led a
donkey owned by Captain U. M. Gunn
which has been embalmed in verse by a
poet of Hawkinsville,
Want of space forbids a more extended
notice of the exhibition at this time.
