Watkins, of Boston, was in town yesterday, and informed us that lie had some very fine melons, of the Kolb Gem variety, for the Ti.mks- E.vtkiiprisk, ono of them weighing Vo pounds, and one or two more olosc- ly on to that weight. He says his melons have turned out splendidly m yield, but it takes all to pay tho freight, aud lie will ship no more, A Reminder. We were reminded of one of Thomasville’s most enthusiastic ad mirers, on yesterday, by the receipt of Reid’s boa Side Souvenir, sent by Mr. George Finck, who spent the winter here the past season. Mr. Finck is an importer and dealer in foreign wines and the agent of several Euro pean lines of steamers. He expressed himself so well pleased here, some time since, that he said he was com ing back and would probably bring a number of German settlers There is not a better spot on earth than Thom- asville and surrounding country for a colony of thrifty Germans, or other class of industrious settlers. Bold Burglary. On Monday night some one entered the bed room of Judge A. H. Mansell, of this city, by placing a barrel and box on top of it, under his window, by means of which they unfastened the blinds, and the window being up -they took from the room the judge’s cloth ing, which was carried out and gone through, taking the sum of $160 ftom his pocket. The judge had drawn that amount from the Bank of Thom- asville during the day, with the inten tion of paying most of it out in the evening, but being detained at home, hearing some motions, Ac., he was prevented from using the money as intended, hence had it on his person. The burglar is evidently of home production. Some lazy, thieving vag abond, who prowls the streets, doing nothing in the day time, and preys upon honest folks at night. Tracks of a man and boy were discovered on the premises, and it is evident that some man, who uses a boy to go into the rooms, is doing the thieving which has become so common here of late. The thieves were kind enough to carry Judge Mansell’s clothes and leave them on the front porch after taking ihe money. It is very evident that the thief was aware that Judge Hansel! had drawn the money from the bank, and laid his plans accordingly. Efforts are being made to come up with the criminal, and if lie is cattgl.t he will receive his just deserts. In this con nection we slate that burglary from the sleeping apartment ought to be a capital offense. Ramie. Mr. J. W. Biggs is in receipt of a letterfrom J no. M.Tiernan.ol Pittsburg, Pa , who represents the Ramie Plant Co , who weie interested in the ramie culture here, inquiring about the prob able quantity of ramie that he could ship and the cost of shipment. The plant is wanted for the purpose of working the machines manufactured lor the purpose of preparing the fibre for market. Mr. Biggs has given the required information, and Mr. T. Millsap, who has purchased the place from Mr. Fcarn, on which the ramie is now growing, will ascertain railroad rates and wire the parties. The letter from Mr. T'iernan gives the pleasing intelligence that the company has not gone to pieces as wc stated some time since, but on the contrary is growing, and think of enlarging their business by going into the culture ol ramie here, as it has been demonstrated that it does remarkably well at this point \Ve shall be glad to note any move ment in that direction. The experi ments already made have demonstrat ed that the ramie will grow here as well as it docs in France. Nearing the Other Shore. Last Sunday week a deeply ini prnssive scene was witnessed at Har mony church, just across the county line, near McDonald. Mrs, Cone, wife of the late James Cone, was _ im mcreed by a primitive Baptist minis ter. Mrs. Cone is between seventy and eighty years old. Her husband died something over a year ago, ami now his aged helpmeet, is putting her houso in order to meet him on the other shore. ’Twill he a joyful re union. Her sands of life will soon, in the nntural order of things, run out. With that faith that passeth all under standing, this venerable woman, hav ing given her heart to God, now calm ly awaits the summons to come up higliot. She is nearing the other shore. A Brilliant Scene. The grounds at Mr. T. C. Mitchell’s presented a brilliant scene last even ing. They were lighted up with Chi nese lanterns,while graceful, lithe forms flitted here and there, waiting on those who were present. Numerous small tables, each presided over by some young lady, were scattered around. Miss Dena Mitchell, as “Rebecca,” presided at the well, while Miss Mattie Miller had charge of the fancy article stand. And there were other fair ones there—many others—whose smiles were magnets and whose faces shone with rare beauty and loveliness, as they were kissed—by the moonlight. The scene, the picture, the forms, the —well, the reporter dare not trust himself further. Elegant refreshments were ^rved and sold, and a very handsom*sum realized, so we understand. The entire affair was a pronounced success. La Tour Eiffel. Mr. Louis Steyerman shows us two beautiful views of the famous Eiffel tower, in Paris, France, which lie has just received from his mother, mailed from the top of the tower. One is the ordinary photograph view of the tow er, and the other is ti beautiful view, in colors, on ivory, of the same. This famous tower is an object of world wide curiosity and notoriety. Its base covers four acres of ground, .and it is a structure heretofore considered impracticable. Visitors ascend to its summit, and, as a matter of curiosity, when there write letters and mail them there, over one thousand feet above terra firnta. Merchants. Look over your stock and see if you arc not now, or soon will be, in need of a lot of printing, note heads, bill heads, letter heads, envelopes, ac count sales, blank notes, receipts, etc., etc. Now is the time to have it done, while it is the dull season lor both ptinter and merchant. We arc pre pared to do all .kinds of printing at reasonable rates, in first class style, and on short notice. Died. Mr. \V. J. Howard, the section master on S. F. & IV. R. R., first section above ThotnasviUc, on Chatta hoochee line, died Monday night after a short illness. A special train went up alter his body yesterday morning, and it was taken to Scrivcn county for burial by Mr. IV. B. Bland. Mr. Howard was a good man and worthy official of tho railroad. He leaves a wife and five children. The recent reduction in the rnilrtmd rates In Albany was elteeteil through the rcipirsts ot rertnin nftieial-, asking the general man ager? tn give a reduction, Tim ro.-uly run ning into Albany held u conference through their general managers, and agreed upon the rate published, A reporter saw a tele gram (rum Mr. G. A. Whitehead, of tlicCcn- Irai, yesterday, saying that the agent here would lie furnished with the rate sheet as soon mV they were published- They do not go into effect until August .“ith.—Albany News and Advertiser. You don’t hear anything about rates being reduced at Thomasville. Comment would be superfluous. The Thomasville Timks-Extkiumusk, after coping the Democrat's article of last week aiicnt the AlaWima, Georgia and Florida railroad survey, asks with pertinent energy: ••What docs Thomasville propose to do, when thus living circumvented, surrounded and sapped Gy new Fines of railroad?

This is a pointer—always send the best fruit in the best shape, and if you send to reliable parties you will realize good prices. Administrator's Sale. Mr. I'’. II. Butler, us lulministralor of II. M. Butler,deceased, sold at pub lic outcry yesterday, before the court house door, a number of lots in the town of Boston. Dr. M. R. Mallctte purchased one block of seven lots, oil whielr is one store bouse and otic boarding house, for the sum of S3,27.1. Pi. J. T. Culpepper,, for the heirs, purchased the remaining lots. The entire sales aggregated $4,705. the amount of “git up ami git - ’ usually claimed for and by our neigh boring city, we would have thought that ilioy had no lack of wakefulness nor poles « ither, fir that matter, aud that they and old Kip were very slight acquaintances when it cniiic to somnolency.

None rejoices more than the writer in the weal ami welfare of Bainbridgc. She is getting up.—and “getting there,” and we're glad of it. But ThotnasviUc will in the future, its she has in the past, pad dle her own canoe, IVe must confess, however, that she is not using the paddles with as much vigor as she should. The time is very near at hand—indeed if it is not here now, when site’ll have to hail or sink. And she’ll hail. Inspection of the Guards. Capt. E. L. Wight, of Albany, in spected lUb Thomasville Guards, at 6 o’clock yesterday afternoon, coining down on the 5:30 train for that pur pose. To the rat-a-tat, tat, tat of the drum the boys assembled on Broad St. and were formed in line, witen Lieut Wilder took them in hand and inarch ed the company around on Madison street, where the drill and subsequent inspection by Capt. Wight took place in front of the Stuart. The company had full ranks, considering that a number of them arc absent. The various evolutions were gone through with, including most of the movements and the manual. The company pre - serted a handsome appearance in their pretty new uniforms. The drill and inspection was highly satisfactory to Capt. Wight.' He was very compli mentary to the company after the exercises, saying among othef things that their movements and appearance equalled some of the old companies which recently drilled in Macon for the prizes offered there. Quite a crowd of ladies and others witnessed the drill and inspection. After the company was dismissed the officers and men marched into the Stuart,where refreshments were served. The social feature of the occasion was very much enjoyed. The Guards arc now a full fledged company, and- will soon draw their arms from the sta‘c, IVe congratulate them upon having emerged front their chrysalis state. The governor sigued the bill yester day incorporating the Thomasville and Cordcle railroad. Be careful about your picmi-i-s.
