The pablic are hereby notified that a public meeting of the Jeffersonian society will be held this (Thursday) evening at 8 o’clock, for the puroose of deviaing waya and means to keep the Library going. All who feel any in- tereat in the organization are nrged to at tend, aa the question of its dissolution or con tinuance will be decided at that time. Geo. F. Wootex, For the Committee. The Finn Water Melon. Mr. Rhcney, the great melon man of Deca tur county, brought to our sanctum last Tues day, 30th of May, a splendid ripe water melon of the famous “rattlesnake" variety. It weighed 20 pounds and the fiavor was fine. We tender our thanks to Mr. It. for his courtesy, and assure him of oar appreciation of the same. May 30th is quite early for npe melons in this latitude—especially of the fine sort rais ed by onr friend. Meath of.Mr. V. 91. Bornm. This gentleman died in this city ear'y last Saturday morning. He had been in ill health for some time, but the final disease was pneu monia. The funeral and bnrial took place on Sun day morning, Bev. Dr. McKee, of the Presby terian church officiating. Mr. Borum was a quiet, unassuming man, and had been a citizen of onr town since 1871. He was clever and accommodating to a fault. We tender our sympathy to his widow and family. Free Vaccine Matter. To whom it May Concern :—The city has purchased vaccine mat’er and placed it in the hands of Dr. E. J. Morgan, who will vac cinate any of our citizens for the nominal sum of 25 cents esch. The matter is abso lutely free, the only co t to the beneficiary being the operation. I trust sll of our peo ple will avail themselves of this opportunity before the small pox if within cur limits. Bex. E. Bussell. Mayor. A Tonng lawyer. We call special attention to the law card of W. M. Harrell, Esq., to be found in to-dsv’g Dejcocbat. Mr. Harrell was admitted to the bar at the last term of our Superior Court, snd his examination was most creditable in every respect. He studied the law under Col. Daniel McGill, and took advantage of the teaching of that distinguished lawyer to fit himself for the bar. We wish our young friend much success in the arduous and learned profession he has chosen. 9laj. L. C. Itrynii. Tlie above gentleman, a staff correspondent of the Savannah Morning News, visited our town last Monday for the purpose of giving Mis readers of that widely circulated snd in fluential journal a letter about Bainbridge and Decatur county. Maj. Bryan’s stay was limited but he im proved every moment in getting the desired information from people who live in both town amt county. Maj. Bryan is one of the finest writers in Georgia, and it wastrnly a compliment to onr city that Col. Estill should send him here to write a letter in our interest. The H«ghrs' Monument. Lieut. Haskins, of the U. S. Army, to whom the matter is entrusted by the government, has been in correspondence with Judge Mas- ton O’Neal, of this city, in reference to the erection of a suitable monument at or near the site of old Fort Hughes, to the memory of Sergeant Hughes, a U. S. soldier, who lost his life near Bainbridge in a desperate fight with the Indians. The monument is to be a handsome shaft ot granite, surrounded by a chain fence with iron posts. It will be an ornament to our city, and for one we heartily thank Judge O'Neal for the interest he has taken in the matter. Meath of Mrs. Jaae Trnlnck. At Whighant, on Sunday morning, the noble lady whose name heads this article breathed her last, of congestion. In March last she fell out of the door of her bouse and broke one of her shoulders, but sbo bad re covered from that accident sufficiently to at tend hei domestic matiers when she received the attack that caused her death. Mrs. Xruluck, was the widow of the late Sutton Truluck, and with him settled in De catur county long before tne Indians left it for the hunting grounds or the west. She was a sister of Wm. Powell, Esq., and the mother of G. B. Truluck, Z. Truluck and A. J. Truluck—the two former living at Whig- ham and the latter some miles east of Bain bridge. Her daughters are Mrs. E. Peacock, Mrs. Joe. Maxwell, Mrs. Jno. T. Harrell, and Miss Sallib Truluck. The subject of this notice was one of the sweetest and best women we ever knew. To know her was indeed to love her. Truly her Ute was like a poem. Beginning in the loDg ago—(side by side with her yonug and in trepid husband she braved the perils of fron tier life)—remiudjng ns of the mountain tor rent in its young strength, it gradually be came ptaeeful as the years rolled on, like the river as is flows to the sea—and when the messenger came, again, like the quiet river as it commingles with the ocean, that noble spirit trusted itself upon the oceaa of God’s eternity. Her age, i r we remember right, was sixty-eight years—years of love, devotion and happiness. That God spared her to almost reach her three score and ten, was an inesti mable blessing to those who lived within the influence of her pure and angelic life. But her course is run and she is at rest, and while wo mourn her loss, we must remember that the “shade of tho trees” beyond is doubly refresh ing to her “after life’s fitful fevei.” To all the grief-stricken ones we tender onr profound sympathy. Candles! Caadies! We would respectfully announce to the citizens of Bainbridge that we have onr Candy Factory in foil blast, aud are prepared to fnruisb Pore Candies in any quantity, from 1 to 500 lbs, aa cheap aa it can be bought any where. Pattebson A Stact. May 18th, 1883.— Bainbridge, Ga. The Jeffersealnos. The above Society has been in existence about three years. A few public-spirited young men lelt that onr town ought to have a public library, and the organization of the Jeffersonian* was the first step in that direc tion. At one time the Society had a member ship oj^venty-five, and it was thought that with continued interest in the matter we might in time have a creditable library; and some even went so far as to hope the Society might have a building of its own. At any rate the interest in the welfare of the organi zation arose to sneh a pitch that donations, running all the way np from a tin dipper with a broken handle to a $4 set of wooden chairs; from a uickle with a bole in the middle, to a $10 greenback; were showered upon it to sn extent, which cansed the enthusiasm of the Society to mount to snch a pitch, that a small room—not “a hall"—was hired, and fitted up with this fiotsam and jetsam of a generous public I At this tide in the Jeffersonian’s affairs, the youDg men who originated it felt their hearts throb with joy and their manly bosoms heave with nntold emotion. As the list of “donations” was read oat in meeting it was seen that onr people were in earnest in this matter. As the learned secretary read over the items he looked to onr astonished gaze as big as General Q. Philander Doesticks at the battle of Waterloo. As each “donation" was read out it was greeted with tumultuous ap plause. Mr. So and to, had contributed a bucket with the bale off; CoL Somebody had given a band lamp without a chimney ; Dr. Youknow-who bad fished up a campstool with three legs and bottomless; Judge DoD’t-yon- know had given a dollar in fractional curren cy ; Mr. Scuball pranced up a set of real wood chairs, plum puddiug edition ; Mr. This roll ed in an inkstand, aud Mr. That contributed a bootjack. But the house absolutely split its joints when Mr. Niceman, M. C., contrib uted a real, genuine $10 greenback william. Ah! that was a gi cat and glorious meeting, aud those young originators of the Jefferson ian Library association felt that they had “builded greater than they knew." But tlie books that were generously con tributed to adorn the newly made pine shelves of our pet institution; shall we attempt to describe them aud thus add another feather to the cap of the literary culture of onr town ? We ba.dly think we ought. Onr friends might accuse us of bragging; our enemies would charge us with conceit. If they think so we are willing to cross our arms, look up to the ceiling, and declare thorn mistaken. Bat to the books. A glance at tbe shelves discoV' ers their contents. Prominent among the array of bastard literature there to be seen is many numbers of those interesting volumes for the young known as tbe Congressional Record. When the Society numbered 75 it was a hard matter to get to read one of these romantic books for the reason that they were go much sought for. Then we have books of sermons w-ithont limit—sermons Methodist, setmons Baptist, sermons Presbyterian, ser mons Hardshell—each and all most entertain ing and instructive reading. And then we have other books with backs, others with a piece of a back, others with no backs at all. Ah it is jumbo-jamboree of looks that were contributed on that boom ot the Jeffersonians —“and don’t yon forge t it." This history is panning out too long; we must break it off before we get to tbe middle. And ‘as all things in tlieir course must change and seasons pass away,” gentle reader the Jeffersonians are about to “pass.” The concern has dwindled down to six members, four of whom helped to “set it afloat” like Robinaon Corkscrew did a famous boat upon one auspicious occasion. Now the question arises are the people of Bainbridge going to let the Library die? Or, are they with their former generosity, magnanimity, deep, una dulterated interest, aud never-say-die patriot ism. going to attend the meeting billed for to-night; and say; “Mr. President: Some things cease to go, but the Jeffersonians shall go os FOREVER!" See Mr. Wooten's notice at the head of the local, fellow-citizens, and govern yourselves accordingly. “ We’U be there!" A School Fie Nile and Fish-Fry. Mr. W. L. Lambert’s school, recently open ed at Piue Hill, assembled with the patrons and others, on the banks of tne Ocklocknee river on last Saturday to enjoy the festivities of a pic-nic and fisb.fry. At an early hour in the morning qnite a number of the chief tains and gallant yojng men of the vicinity gathered up their fishing tackles, shouldered their po’es, and went eagerly in pursuit of the finny tribe. Notwithstanding, tbe day was not to say very lovely, and favorable for fishing, yet before the sun in tbe south bad reached its meridian height, to beautify and adorn tbe day, a superabundance of nice fish was caught. At a suit-able hour a goodly num ber of the noble matrons and fair young mai dens of this region round about, assembled in a pleasant grove near the rippling stream where they prepared an excellent and dainty repast. The array of edillcs was both ample and tempting, while the attendance was not as large as we have seen on similar occasions; still the enjoyment of the assembly was com plete. The crops in some parts on the Ociockonee are looking 1 very promising. The oat crop which is now being harvested is very gOod. The Sabbatu-school in onr community which is now under the auspices of our worthy citizen, Mr. P. H. Herring, as superintendent, is in a prosperous condition. Rev. Mr Fent- ri ss of the Methodist church preaches for ns the first Sabbath in each month, and Rev. Tr. Manning of the Baptist clinrch the 3rd Sabbath. So now Mr. Editor if yon think these lines worthy of a short space in the valuable col- of your paper, we will feel very grateful to you for their publication. Truly, W.L.L. ATTENTION RAILROAD CONTRACT ORS AND COUNTRY MERCHANTS. We would call special attention of railroad contractors, also country merchants to the fact that A. E.

The nights are atUl very cool. Tempera ture during the day in the seventys. When yon hear the whipoorwill sing during the day it portends cool weather. Vennor is correct. The May of 1882 will be recorded the coolest May for thia latitude for fifty years. Tom Williams as “Jack Barton,” created a sensation. Dickinson snd Pemcork also did extremely well. Two ripe watermelons made their appear- slice on our streets Saturday. They were of the f. and a. variety. O. G. G. has a letter on the first pageoi this issue. He tells our readers what he aaw in Atlanta. Mr. V. M. Borum, lately deceased, was an old member of the Stonewall Fire Company, also be has served often on the eity police. Alderman Nussbaum was testing some blooded stock on Broad street Saturday even ing. There seems to be a crop race between Un cle Daniel McGUl and Charley Martin. They are onr champion planters. . Look out for the new comet in the north west, said soon to be visible on his perihelion tramp. Dr. Parker while fishing Wednesday last above the bridge, caught a three-foot shovel- nosed shark. The fruit crop will be a total failure in this county this season. The peach trees are al most totally barren. We have had te crowd ont editorial matter this week, but our local and general reading colnmns will make up for the deficiency. Parties desiring an ice cool lemonade, a sparkling glass of soda water, a coot beer, or any other exhilerating beverage bad best call on A. K. Leon. We .expect to see the entire city, men, women, big, little, old and young ont to see the Jeffersonians to-night, and help to per petuate the Library. “Atlanta had best be ojper good beharior. A correspondent of tbe Bainbridge newspaper islookingon."—Post-Appeal. Yes, and “look ing on” with both eyes wide open. Capt. Ben. E. Russell shipped 43 Spring- field Rifled Muskets, late property of the Bainbridge Independents, to Atlanta last Sat urday. The dull season appears to be npon ns. Euchre seems all the rage, bnt we expect soon to hear the knock of tbe croquett mallets upon the court house square. Dr. Watson's balsam is the best family medicine in the world. For sores, barns, rheumatism, anil a host oi other ailments it is simply incomparable. “Grand Juror’s” letter created much dis cussion among the people last week. Many have guessed the writer’s name, but all have fallen far short of tbe mark. Col. F. G. Arnett, who lives just outside of the city, has, so everybody says, the finest patch of corn in Decatur county. The stalks average from five to seven ears. Dune. McLanchlin's squashes, beans and potatoes cannot be beat for size aud excel lence. He manures witb barn phosphato and elbow grease. Col. F. G. Arnett bas near his house a patch of corn in silk of the Echols variety, that will yield one hundred and fifty bushels to the acre. Mrs. Slicrrcd Swrin was convicted of In sanity before a jury Tuesday, ana will soon be sent to |the Asylum. She is 74 years of age, and can walk 20 miles a day. Sec the advertisement of A. W. Snider ft Co’s mill on this page. Sniiler is a practical mill man, full of energy, enterprise and in dustry. Hurrah for Snider and tbe Flint River Saw Mill. A farmer has invented a scare crow that not only prevents the crows from eating new ly planted corn, but also canses them to bring back what they toted off last year. Verily this invention is a great benefactor. The man who growls! Lord deliver ns from the man who growls. He is an excres cence on the body social; he is a bear; yes, even a hyena. Beware of the Growler, have not to do with him. A tramp has 200 feet to run tif reach you gate while your dog has 300 feet to make to get tne tramp. The tramp travels twelve miles an bout and the dog twenty. How nesr will the tramp be to the gate when tbe dog lias him by the CDd of tbe spinal column. The colored people of Decatnr county are fast becoming independent farmers, that is to say. farming npon lands independent of the whites. Hence tbe plantation system is fast becoming impracticable. Small farms are the best anyway. F. E. Harwell, the photograph Min, was arrested last week charged witb cruelty to an. imals. It seems that be has been in the habit of throwing vitriol on the hogs that come near his tent. Quite a number of theee ani mals have been horribly burned in tbisjnan- ner. Such brutality deserves the severest punishment. Capt Reynolds, and his engineer corps, fin ished locating the line of the S- F. ft W. from this point to Green Shade church last Satur day. The corps began to survey tbe Chatta hoochee and East Pass line from tbe former place on Monday last. Should tbe managers of the S. F. ft W. desire to move their exten sion forward from Bainbridge, everything is ready for work to begin. “Mrs. Smith suddenly turned her head to gaze after Mrs. Brown, to see how her new spring polonaise set in the back, and was un- .ble to get her head back at last accounts.” Now when she is going np stairs she thinks she is coming down, and it is very confusing indeed. Although her back hair is in front and her bangs behind, still it is not the first time that a woman bas had her ‘bead turned’ by tbe fashions. . Some people seem to think that we are tak ing undae interest in the railroad extension to Chattahoochee. Perpaps we are. It would prob-bly look better for those who own most property to take tbe lead in a matter so vitally important to onr town. We should be proud if such were the case. However, we are simply nsiug our prerogative as a citi zen, to do all we can for tbe town we live tu whether anybody else does or not, and that re gardless of what people think or say.

This play, the dosing part of the evening’s enjoyment at the fair building on Tuesday May 23rd, was hardly less interesting than the very interesting first part of the pro gramme, mapped ont so generonsly and with such excellent judgment, by tbe lady man ager, Miss Florie Shackleford. Tlie caat was: Farmer Barton, jfr. H Dickinson; Mrs. Barton, Miss Annie McGill; Jack Barton, Mr. T. J. Williams; Reuben Hale, Mr. J. E. Peacock ; Mercy Mears, Miss Flo.-ie Shackleford; Miss Hallidav, Miss Inez Johnson. Each part was well carried. There was an absence of the time honored Bain bridge drag. There was no time to tske a nap between the shifting of scenes. Every' thing moved promptly, to the admiration of the dreBB circle, the uproarons appreciation of the gallery mokes and hoodlums of the pit. The acting was splendidl .’fvcnlarly Miss Shackleford as Mercy Mears, Miss Annie McGill as Mrs. Barton and Miss Inez Johnson as Miss Halliday. We have seen less creditable acting in the traveling companies that have visited onr city in the past, than was seen 'Tuesday night. Why not give ns a repetition of that even ing’s enjoyment? Let us see yon again soon, ladies and gentlemen, before tho foot-lights. Persoauls. F. L.

Many of Tbe Dewocbat's fair readers will regret this announcement. Herman Gants has a fine bay mare, and she moves right along in harness. We notice quite a number of fine horses in the city, which speaks that mnch well for onr town. Mr. Uley J. Williams, of this eity, has ac cepted a position in the Express Company’s office at Savannah, where he now is in tho discharge ot his duties. Capt. John H. Martin, of Hawkinsville, and one of the rising lawyers in that section of the State was in our town last week. He was down this way on a visit to Mr. Chas. L. Martin, his brother. We are always glad to see Capt. John, and wish that he wonld make his visit! oftener snd of greater duration. LOCAL NOTICES. Col. B. F. NIcDoanld.
