The Methodist and Baptist Sunday schools have united in an agreement to hold n largo pic-uic near town, the place not determined upon yet, on to-morrow week. We know the little folks will think of nothing else lor a few days before the time. By all ineans let the young folks enjoy themselves. Stonewall Fire Company. In obedience to the order of the Mayor, A. B. Newsome, Esq., this feompany brought out their engine and hose for trial and inspection, on Tuesday evening, which upon trial proved to bo in effective condition hnd good working order. More in terest should be manifested on the part of the citizens towards this gal lant little company. Thanks. We were made the recipient on last Week of a package of smoking to bacco by Mr. N. Gazan, which we pronounce par excellent. Nathan is bated for keeping good tilings. If buy of our readers wish to take a real isolace sort of a smoke, then we advise thorn to call on Gazan ami procure a jinckago of his best. The Temperance Pie 'lie Is looked forward to with much pleasure by the members of the Quif hian Council and their friends, which will take place on to-morrow at Blue Springs, about seven miles east of town. We hope ample accommoda tions may be provided for on the oc teatiiou, so that all tlie membership may attend. Horrible. From all over the country we hear bf the most awfui devastation of the button crop, from cut worms and grasshoppers. We have heard if several planters who had plowed and lioed over their cotton the second : time, that are now plowing up the j little portion that is standing, and ■ planting entirely anew. We have heard others say that they are new planting their third crop of cotton for this year. Seed is becoming very scarce, and the probability is there is not enough to supply the wants of the country, besides it is a month too late, and if a drought should set in, which isnot at all improbable, t! e 1 there will be but little if any cotton tnade in this section of country. Wonderful Success. It is reported that Buschke’s Ger man Syrup has, since its introduction in the United States, reached the im mense sale of 40,000 dozen per year. Over 6,000 Druggists have ordered this medicine direct from the Factory, at Woodbury, N. J., and not one has Reported a single failure, but every letter' speaks of its astonishing suo teess in curing severo Coughs, Colds settled on the Breast, Consumption, or any disease of the Throat and Lungs. We advise any person that has any predisposition to weak Lungs, to go to their Druggists, Jeers & Mabbett or H. H. Kaytox, and get this medicine, or inquire about it. Regular size, 75 cents; sam ple bottle, 10 cents. Two (loses will relieve any case. Don’t neglect your bough. The Mitcli'ell House. This house is tho pride of Thomas- Villo, and had to be of all this portion of noble old Georgia. It is a gem—the best built, the best ai ranged, and the best kept hotel to bo found In tho South outside of tho large Cities, and is the peer of the most of thorn that are in the cities. Wo un der-stand that there will bo another liotcl of immense proportions erected in Thomasville between this and fall, to accommodate tho vast multitude of people that are expected to spend tho next winter at that placo. FiVst-class hotels at Quitman and Valdosta would bo filled all tho win ter, and it certainly behooves our people to do all they possibly can to 6ucouragc tho immediate building of the hotel that is now in contemplation for this placo. The benefit would be immense to tho merchants, tho coun try people, and the boarding- houses j 6f the place'. If we can’t do more, iet us speak words of encouragement, arid cheer the gentleman o'n, and bid j him God-speed in his noble and gon- ; Crons undertaking. Believing that his j investment will prove vastly remit-; herative, wo say, don’t delay, Mr. G.

Don’t forget about that election nn tho 12th of Juno. —Some of the country people now attend church in town. —Calico in this market has ad vanced from six to seven and one-sixth cents per yard. —A lingo rattlesnake was killed in tho picker-room at tho factory one day last week. —A brisk wind kept up all day Sunday, and made it pleasant both in-doors and out. —The season is now at hand when the young man with a fancy “turn out" is in his glory. -—That temperance pic-nic will be an enjoyable affair, if we may judge from present indications. —The street hands are still at work, and nearly every street in town has been worked and improved. —The best way to raise beats is to place bent pins on the boxes where they are wont to congregate. —Some of the boys arc catching tlie voting mocking-birds and caging them for future amusement. —Everybody that we have heard say anything about it, ttrt’r- delighted and well pleased with the Thomasville Fair. —There is not much travel in this * # section now. Dull times and the scarcity of money is the cause, we suppose. —The city council have had the weeds and grass out away, and bedded up a good sidewalk leading from the depot to the factory. -—The recent heavy winds have about drove all the “skoetere” away, but the troublesome little Ilea still goes bobbing around. —Some fellows seem to think that the best place to sit down and wait for a job or something to turn up is in the neighborhood of a beer saloon. —A small party went fishing Satur day night. They met with fishermen’s luck, and returned homo about eleven o’clock tired and hungry, without any fish. -—The sportsmen go out these bright nights and hang away at the hooting owls. They seem to be plen tiful hereabouts, and a few are killed most any night the hunters look for them. —The services at the factory last Sunday evening were very interesting and impressive, and wo learn that several have expressed a desire to become members of the Methodist church. • —Messrs. Creech A Newsome, two of our enterprising merchants, are enlarging their business, and are about to erect a brick store-house in Madison, Fla., where they now have a branch house. —The fashionable ones are getting tired of carrying their dresses up under their elbows. You see, times are hard; their shoes are running down at the heels, so they have to drop their skirts, —Most towns of this size have one or more tailors in their midst, hut strange to say, Quitman has not one. XV o arc of opinion that an upright, industrious workmen would procure j steady employment by locating here, i —We were favored with a continuous shower of lain throughout Monday night. The gardens were in need of a good sprinkling, and are now look ing \vi il. The grass will take anew start and grow vigorously, and will keep the tillers busy for a while. —Some one has recently discovered that the canker-worm, a groat pest of fruit trees, can bo effectually destroyed bv smearing printer’s ink on the trunk and branches. It is pleasant to note this addition to the many ways in which printer’s ink is potent for the suppression of pests. -—lt’s getting most too warm to wear those long winter coats, hut it’s better to suffer in the flesh and get a little sweaty than to allow a lot of unfeeling corner loafers to be scru tinizing and making uncalled for remarks concerning the variegated patches on the seat of your browsers. —For tho first time in a good while the Quitman jail seems deserted. The cells are empty, and not a solitary j inmate is confined therein. This is a good sign of the general peace and quiet that prevails throughout Brooks county, and we express tho wish that j it may continue to grow in harmony, peace and prosperity. —For about a week we have had a j most unusual spoil of weather, re minding one more of winter than tho fair May days of yore. On Monday last overcoats were brought into re quisition by tho most of our people. The prevailing East winds are very disagreeable and unhealthy,- and arc pi'opitious for tho pestiferous cut worms, which arc fc’fiStlftgf to their satisfaction upon the' young cotton, greatly to the detriment of the plant ers. The ci-} is stifll for more cotton seed to plant. rCommunicate cl. 1 Insvrlhoil !<> My Wile. Ay, lmt wait, good wife, a minute, t have libit K wobl to wiV; Do you know wlmt day to-day ia?

The Thomasville Fair, AVe for the first time attended tho spring Fair at Thomasville on last Thursday, and lienee cannot speak of it in comparison with other Fairs; hut one thing we can say, and that is, that we were delighted with tho grand display of vegetables. It speaks vol umes for Southwest Georgia, and shows clearly the capacities of our section of country; and while every thing was as fine as heart could de sire, we must ho permitted to say that Judge Hardaway certainly had tho finest lot of vegetables we ever beheld. The Fairs that are being held at Thomasville twice a year are attract ing to our section of the State more people than everything else put to gether, and had ought to inspire the entire people of Southwest Georgia to emulate tho noble example of Thomas county, and cause them to take a more lively interest in the | fairs. Brooks had ought to lead off by erecting before the fall fair a building on tho fair grounds at Thomasville of ; sufficient capacity to accommodate her entire people. 001. Mclntyre in ! formed us, while at tho fair, that the ! grounds would be given free to any county in Southwest Georgia that would build, and that the good people of Thomas will willingly give such encouragement atnl assistance as would be reasonable. As it is, Thomas county displays more enterprise, and is of more real benefit to this section of country than all tho other counties put together, and the others are profiting by her outlay and industry, almost, if not quite equal with herself in the way of immigrants. If Brooks, Lowndes, Decatur, Mitchell, Baker and Dough erty counties would unite and erect suitable buildings on the fair grounds at Thomasville and [nit forth their energies, they would soon see their lands advance to three or four times their present value, and their country tilled with the best class of people to he found in the United States. Query. Editor Reporter: Will you please be so kind as? to inform one of the constant readers of ybitr valuable paper whether Mr. Meyer Delevie received the title of “Colonel” in this country, or whether it has been im ported for him from Europe. Last week I was asked, by a certain resi dent of this town, “Where is Colonel Delevie ?" I said, “Ho is not hero just now, but will bo in a few min utes”—not noticing at the time the handle put to Delevie, as it came from a lady of color. But when I called him this week by the usual name of Meyer (as I always did), I was nearly thunder-struck at being informed by the gentleman mentioned that when I called him again, to give him the handle to his name, and con firmed it by saying: “My name is ‘Colonel’ Delevie.” Now, I do not doubt the worthiness of his title, as I am a stranger in this country and do not linow what ability Mr. D. has in the aftny, or wliat won derful miracle lie performed in your last war. Therefore, I ask you the favor to inform mo what service he rendered this country to claim the title of Colonel. I saw some time ago, before I was well acquainted with tho gentleman, a paper signed “Col. M. Delevie,” and not knowing but thero was a white and colored Delevie in this town, I took it for granted that it meant “colored,” and and not “colonel,” as I never heard of a Colonel Delovie before. Please let mo know through your valuable col umns whether tho title is a true and deserving one, or a fraud, and oblige, Yours vevy truly, Subscriber. Yes, wo will tell you who wo think it was that styled Mr. Delevie with “Colonel.” It was old Allen Zinnerler, the bench-legged, bandy-shanked, half-witted old negro who does gar dening for some people in town.— Ed.

Creech’s Letter of Acceptance. TmiuAsvii.t.l;, Ga., May 21, 1877. Mr. J. It.

G. dragon/ — Committee: Gentlemen: I Hitvo the honor to acknowledge tho receipt of your com munication of tho 21st inst., informing me of my nomination as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention to con vene at the capital of the State the second Wednesday in July. I must say that the honor conferred upon me by the nominating convention held at McDonald was not only unexpectedly, hut gratefully received, and I promise my friends and coitutrymen, if elected, to do the best in my humble way that I can for their interest. Under the circumstances I accept tho nomi nation. AA’ith great respect I am, gentlemen, very truly your obedient servant, J. B. Creech. The Press Association. Tho Press Association mot. at Thomasville on the 23rd instant ac cording to previous appointment by tho President, Col. Estill. There was a considerable crowd present; I quite a goodly number of ladies were there. The hour for commencing the scr ] vices having arrived, South Georgia’s silvery tongued-orator, Colonel Ham mond, of Thomasville, was introduced and certainly did himself great hon or on that occasion. He reviewed the printing press from its first intro duction to the present time, and ac corded to it the power for good or evil that it wields in the land. Af ter this wonderful effort, yea, this I masterpiece of .oratory by idol. Ham mond, Dr. J. D. Hoyle of tho Daw sou Journal, was then introduced, his effort though extemporaneous was replete with wit and humor, aiid was enjoyed by all. He was frequently cheered. The next speaker called out was Haul, of the Wavrentou Clipper, who, like li is predecessor, made an excel lent talk; at the conclusion of which, the President, Col. Estill, announced - that the meeting would adjourn until 4p. m. During tile evening session the usual committees were appointed, the first of which was a committee on credentials. Immediately after its report a lot of fun ensued, and some had to assert their rights as American citizens in a most vociferous manner to make their credentials stick, in or der to maintain their positions as members of the rf'esS Association. At night there was a Grand Ball given in honor of the Press Associa tion at the Mitchell House. We did not attend, but learn it was a very enjoyable, as well as a brilliant af fair. Don’t lti-gard it as a Catch-Penny. Bk.vdfield’s Female Reoulatok. We i nave often read in the newspapers of the j grand success of medical compounds put up |at the North and elsewhere. Many of those medicines have had their day, and We lieu* no more of them. Their proprietors have made fortunes, not so much from the cura tive powers and virtues of their mixtures, ay from the notoriety given them by advertising, by which people were made to believe all the good that was said of them. A preparation is now before the public which is becoming very popular, and is known as Bradficld’s Female Regulator, put up by L. 11. Brad field, of Atlanta, G f.., at $1.50 per bottle. Such is its curative virtues that it has gained wide-spread popularity all over the country where it lias been made known, and it is being introduced everywhere. We are in formed that immense quantities of this med icine are being sold in all sections of the South and Southwest, especially in the city of New Orleans and in Texas. This much we say in justice to its pro prietor, who is a gentleman of integrity, and who would not engage in the manufac ture and sale of a humbug. —La Grange Reporter. Tuo Miles before Breakfast. In a neighboring city in Georgia, there is a married woman, who, after her third con finement, had ulceration, with all its repul sive symptoms. She tried in vain all the nostrums; her husband carried her to all (In* famous mineral springs, went with her to New York, Philadelphia, and other places, to consult eminent ohstretricians, to no purpose. After the use of the fifth bottle of Regulator, she lias been restored to her former healtli and happiness, and is now the joy of the household—is able to walk two miles before breakfast. 222 Flaming head-lines announce the' birth, in St Louis, of a brood of four to Mrs. Anthony DeVito.
