He reports the bulk ot the melon crop as having gone for ward. Would it not he a good idea for the Library directors to subscribe for sev eral of the leading magazines?

It would be a positive reflection ou the town if, after all the blow and bluster which 1ms been made about the road to Cordcle, the project wn* allowed to fail. It is again in order to remind the city authorities that it is the proper thing to put Thomasvillc in thorough ly good sanitary condition. The fox chase in Paradise Park and vicinity, Saturday afternoon, was quite exciting. There will probably be another one the latter part of the week. Special to Tiuks-Ektebi'bisi.] Atlanta, Ga., July 8., 10 p. m.— The great fight between John L. Sul livan, who,holds the championship belt of the world, and Jake Ivilrain, the Baltimore pugilist, came off this .morning at Ricltburg, Miss., 105 miles frdln New Orleans. The men stood up to each other through 75 rounds, both showing great pluck and endur ancc. At the end of the 75th round Kilrain failed to come to time and Sullivan was declared the winner, Neither of the combatants was seri ously injured, though Kilrain showed up very weak at the end of the mill. To Kilrain belongs the honor of the first fall and he drew the first blood from the great champion. Sullivan got in tho first square knock down The fight lasted two hours and eigh teen minutes. Constitution. The History of the Johnstown Flood. This is a fast age. Scarcely a month has passed since the great Johnstown flood thrilled the world with the tales ot terror, and already an exhaustive history of the great disaster, giving the horror, has been published in book form. Mr. Johnnie Vaughan has secured the agency for the book for Thomas ville, and will be glad to have his friends and the public drop in at Moore & Williams and leave orders for "it. The volume contains about 400 pages and ts fully illustrated. It reads like a talc of romance, and wherever the story of the great flood has been told it will find readers. Railroad Racket. Application has been made to the legislature lor a charter for the Augus ta and West Florida railroad. This new road proposes to go directly from Augusta to Cordcle. The road that Thomasvillc will build to Cordcle will form an important link in this new road. The strongest attraction that Thom asville can offer to roads pointing in her direction, is the building of the new outlet to Cordelc. With this out let Thomasville will be the railroad center of south Georgia. Have you taken stock in the company that will build it? Weighed and Found Wanting. Rev. J. H. Berbener preached an excellent sermon last Sabbath, from the text that frightened the midnight orgies of Belshazzar: “ThtfiP art weighed and found wanting.” He drew many excellent lessons that are calculated to stimulate men and wom en to escape the fate that came to the King of Babylon.

M.j arc requested lo attend called meeting, Thursday even ing at 8 o’clock. By order II. P. M. A. Fleetwood, Secretary. They Arc Not Ripe. The Timks-Enterpeise has taken occasion on several occasions to warn the growers of LcCoutc pears against shipping the fruit before it was grown. This warning has been entirely un heeded, for the pears are going for ward with a rush. At first only the wind shakes were shipped, but the prices realized for them were so good that now the growers are pulling the fruit from tho trees and shipping. It is not ripe, it is not even two- thirds grown. Granting that it will mellow after keeping it for weeks, it will be insipid and flavorless, and the result will he that the pear will gain a had reputation as an eating fruit. There can be only one result that can follow such a reputation, loss in the future. Ever since the ancients got in a great hurry to secure the golden eggs that were being laid by the fabled goose, and killed the poor bird to secure the fruit in advance of the natural course of such events, men have been guilty of the same folly— and tin’ pear growers of south Georgia arc following their foolish example with great haste. The LcOonte has nothing to fear front competition with the best fruits of the world, if it is only allowed to mature before it is pulled, But coming into competition, active and sharp as it does, with the products of the well nigh matchless soil and cli mate of California, and the best fruit sections of the North and East, it is nothing but fair that it should be al lowed at least au equal chance. A Times-Entekprisi: reporter ha; made a personal inspection of some of the very finest groves in the county, and lie is prepared to say that to ship the fruit now is putting a premium on low*priccs when the fruit is in fine order, and inviting a stigma on the reputation of the pear that will out last the meagre profits that come from the first few shipments of green fruit. Lodged in Jail. A. M. Uossnthal, the New York sharper who fleeced tho melon grow ers along the line of the 8*. F. & \V. Ry. out of something like JO cars of melons hv means of bogus drafts, has been safely lodged in jail in Quitman. After iie lmd played his little game hero as long as lie could, he went to the Central road and began it once again. He was arrested in Eufattla at the instance of a grower at Lees burg, Ga., but paid his way out and was making for New York. At At lanta he was again arrested to answer the charges prcferiod by Quitman parties. Sunday night the Shcrifl of Brooks county passed through our city with the sharper and lie is now safely behind (lie bars. Ho has made several appeals to his confederate, one 15. C. Fuller, of New York, to come to his aid, hut up to this time Mr. Fuller .seems content to pocket the profits and leave Rosenthal to pocket the punishment. f^o far as we have learned only one Thomas county man, Mr. T. C. Htan- alaml, of Boston, was caught. Mr. Staualand has 8100 more of experi ence than he had when the season opened. A Burglar Fined. John Anderson, the little negro boy that went into Alien Wyyhc’s home and robbed him of a sum of money while the family were away several nights ago, plead guilty to larceny from the house yesterday before Judge Mitchell. Me was fined 8500 or in default thereof to work on the public works for twelve months. lie will go on the gang. An Opera House for Boston.

Mr. 11. is an eloquent speaker, and ought to have a fine audience. Dr. J. G. Hopkins’ family, who have been spending some time at Marietta, have gone to Tate Springs, Tcnn,, to spend the remaining part of tho season/ The Gorman Last Night. 8 The German given by the young men last night, at German Hall, in honor of Miss India Hunter, was a very pleasant aflair. The murky clouds that had ob scured the sky during the afternoon, were partially dissipated after night fall, and the pale-faced moon raado most paiscwortliy efforts to pierce the thin haze of clouds, as the face of a beautiful woman sometimes strives to make itself seen through an envious veil. When the reporter looked in on the scene, his eyes were met by a vision of fairy-like forms gently moving to the strains of inspiring music. The following couples participated: Mr. and Mrs. Love Wilder. R. G. Dickinson with Miss India Hunter. Mr. S. A. Smith with MissSallie Stark. Mr. A. A. Riley with Miss Annio Scott. Air. W. F. Edmondson with Miss Annie Paine. Mr. W. L. Willingham with Miss George Mitchell. Mr. W. L. Buttolph with Miss Ilonorinc Mitchell. Mr. H. G'. Pickett with Miss Jen nie West, of Chicago.
