Reraur Mc^jityre and Mitch Jones, who have been taking in the coast cities, have returned. They report a pleasant trip. There is no let up in the growth of Tlio nasville. In summer and winter, alike, she -grows and spreads? The seasons do not affect her. Every farmer in Thomas county,|no matter what his financial condition may be, can afford to pay $1 per year for a home paper. there will lie a long rest—a rest until ■—the next commencement season. Every dollar judiciously expended —and it should not he otherwise ex pended—to keep tho town in first-class sanitary condition, is money well spent. You will miss a good thing if you fail to attcud a single night, during the commencement excrcrscs at the South Georgia College next week. There is ample room in tho large chapel. And tho best of order will be preserved. Few counties in Georgia have as many prosperous towns in it, as Thomas, Look at Boston, Cairn, Ochlockonec and Metcalfe. Thomas county is proud of them. They are orderly, peaceable, moral, prosperous places. May prosperity crown them for all time to come. At South Georgia College. The commencement exercises ol this institution open this morning with a sermon by Rev. I)r. T. E. Smith, of Cedar Keys, Fla., in the college chap el. To-morrow evening, at 8 o’clock, Hon. P. W. Meldrim will deliver the baccaulaurate address. From the well safe to say that the large crowd that will attend will be amply repaid. The chapel will be handsomely decorated with flowers and evergreens; the young ladies and gentlemen will take part in the pleasure task of making the chapel of their alma mater a bowerof beauty. Tuesday evening the annual prize declamation and debate will come off. Wednesday evening the annual con cert by the young ladies of the college will afford a treat to the audience. After the concert the medals award ed to the participants in prize decla mation and debate will be delivered by Mr. Alex. R. Jones. Thursday evening the amusing cantata “Trial by Jury,” will be rendered by a strong cast. It is understood that Chancellor Boggs of the State University will be present during the commencement ex ercises. H$ will deliver an address on edu cation in Albany, Wednesday evening, and it would be a good plan to have the learned gentleman address our people on ihc same subject. A Fruit Section. It is generally supposed in middle and upper Georgia that the wiregrass section is not a fruit-growing couutry. If some of those who think so, would come to Thomasvillc and sec the wag on loads of apples, peaches ami pears which come into market, they would change their opinion. All that is necessary is proper attention and judgement in planting the right vari eties, to raise fruit here to very fair perfection. While" we 'do not claim Jo raise as line peacheu -or apples, of some varieties, ns can Iks raised in one or two favored sections of the the state, yet we can compare favora bly with any section of the south tak ing it. as a whole. In the matter of pears we can boat the world. Off for New York. Dr. T. M. McIntosh left for New York city yesterday, at 12:40. He will attend a meeting of the American Medical Association at Newport, R. I.. next week, as a delegate from the Georgia Medical Association. Dr. McIntosh will spend several weeks in the metropolis after the adjournment of the American Association, The Weekly Thomasville Times- Enteri’rse goes into almost every household iu the county—and into hundreds of families in adjoining counties. This is a pointer for mer chants. If you want the country trado say so through the columns of the Weekly Times-Enterprise. “Ask and ye shall receive.” We expect a large and enthusiatlc delegation of Thomusville's citizens at the Veterans Reunion in Bain- bridge on tho glorious Fourth. Judge H. W. Hopkins was interviewed in our office yesterday morning by an old Bainbridgc vet. and he says that Thomasvillc will be there by her usual majority. The Constitution never makes any thing smaller than it is. Coroner Johnson was surprised to find in its col umns the other day, that 8125.00, had been turned over to him as a portion of the effects of a suicide; and now it comes very near killing Zeke Hamil ton to learn that n burglar stole $2,- ")00, from him the other night. He regretted bad enough to lose the small amount which he did, but to lose two thousand five hundred dollars, knocks him all in a heap. Interesting Relies. Mrs. A. D. Rike, of this place, is in possession ofau interesting relic. It is an old German bibio, dated 1720. It lias been in the possession of Mrs. Rikc’s ancestors for a hundred ami fifty years, and she prizes it very highly. There are also some letters written in the German language that have been preserved between the leaves of the bock, tiiat were written over a hundred years ago. Mrs, Rike is anxious to have the letters translated. True as Preaching. li the farmers will hold together they can at least break up the bagging trust by throwing all of the stock in to the hands of the men who bought it. The cotton bagging seems to an swer every purpose, and by using it there is at once a demand for about 17)0,000 hales of inferior stuff that cannot well he utilized in anything else. The trouble with men who fight combinations, is that they weaken as soon as the other side makes conces sion. The bagging trust may he willing to come to terms with the farmers, hut there is no assurance that they will not secretly organize next year. Besides why should cotton growers buy other haling and stuff than an article made from the pro duct of their own fields. It is to their mutual benefit to find a means of consuming their inferior grades of cotton.—Montgomery Advertiser. Widows and Widowers. From the New York Sun. There are over 800,000 more widows than widowers in England. In France for every 100 widowers there are 194 widows. These facts lead the Westminister Review to treat the growing disposi tion of men to marry late in life as a very serious evil of modern society. Such men usually marry younger women, who, in the natural order of things, may he expected to survive them. Even where widowers enter again into matrimony, they do not often take for wives women of a cor responding or ail approximately cor responding age, hut young maidens, who are likely to be left widows. Tho greater longevity of women lues induced some philosophers to advise that, on the contrary, the wife should be older than the husband, and there have t heeu some notable marriages where that was the case. The Baron- ess Buidectc-Coutts and Madame do StacC for instance, were much older thnn .thc men they married. . But the law of nature commonly stauds in opposition to such unions, lliough it cannot he denied that the woman with whom a lad first falls iu love is very apt to he much his senior. lie would marry her if she would have him for a husband, hut sho looks on hint as a more boy, and usually refuses to take his lovo seriously. The natu ral tendency of women to marry older men seems to be as strong ns it is for men to marry younger women, else the amorous lads would receive an amount of encouragement which might put the average superiority in ages on the side of the brides. Nature, therefore, arranges all that in a way from which it cannot he diverted by any review article. Wc agree, however, that it is best for the man and for the race that lie should marry early if lie is to marry at nil. Any great disparity of age between husband and wife is a misfortune. It is better for them to grow old together, so that in tho usual course of nature the man and the woman will reacli tho end without any great difference in time between them. JERSEY MILK.
