Mr. John S. Montgomery has sold
the vacant lot, corner Smith avenue
and Dawson street, near the the Piney
Woods hotel, to Mr. Geoige W,
Jicrrell. This is one of the most
eligible building lots in the city. Sir.
Ferrell will, at an early day, erect a
handsome residence on his lot,
One of the pleasant features of the
entertainment at Mr. Basse's, Thurs
day night, was the arrangement and
beauty of the two electric arc lights

One qf them was placed over Mr.
Basse’s handsome grape vineyard and
the effect was charming.

serves his sentence.
A well informed gentleman, and a
close observer, said the other day :
"There should be a street opened
from East End, running in rear of
Mr. Redden Smith’s property, to con
nect with Bennett street, where it
touches Smith avenue, just this side of
Mr. T. E. Blackshear's. The citizens
living in that portion of East F.nd
ought to be given this improvement.”
Mr. E. M. Mallettc has sold to Dr.

the beautiful lot on coiners of Hansell
and Grady streets and Colton avenue.
This lot fronts 200 feet on Paradise
Park, and runs back 200 feet. It has
a lull unobstructed view down Hansell
street and Colton avenue, and is un
questionably the handsomest residence
lot now vacant in the city.

a distance of ten feet. Dr. Davis, of
Albany, gave him medical attention,
upon the arrival of the train at that
place,
Brunswick now has two lines of
steamers to New York. What if
Thomnsvillo was in independent
railroad connection with Jacksonville,
Fernandina, Brunswick and Savan
nah, each of these connected, as they
are, with New York ? Tho proposi
tion is enough to make a Thomasville
business man’s mouth water. And
yet they arc all within reach, if' we
would but stretch our hand and pluck
the fruit. Those connections are so
near—and yet so far.
An interesting celestial phenomenon
is announced to occur on the night of

the moon. The time of the immer
sion, as seen from this locality, will
commence about a quarter before 10
p. m., and last half an hour.—Ex.
I.ook cut lor the beautiful sight. It
will attract the attention of the young
people, at least. See that the front
gate is on its liingcs.The hinges will be
taxed on the night ot the 3rd.
Almost every newspaper printed in
the state is making some rejcrcnce to
the evidences of piosperity of the col
ored people in Georgia. In every
section they are erecting their own
homes. The Middle Georgia Argus
says that a great many colored citizens
there arc putting up conrforable homes;
the same is true in Richmond, Mein,
tosh, Chatham and many other coun
ties in tlie stats. The papers printing
these facts all allude to them as hope
ful signs of the times,—Atlanta Jour-
nal.
We challenge any section of the
state to show a more thrifty colored
population than Thomasville. The
heavy increase in their taxable prop-
erty is a striking c.'idence ol their pro
gress.
Burglars Fired at.
Burglars attempted to enter the res
idence of Mr. B. W, Green, a tinner,
residing on Smith avenue, Thursday
night. They were discovered and sev
eral shots fired at them by the occu
pant. The shots frightened them off.
Mr, Green thinks there were two of
the rascals. That afternoon two Ital
ians, evidently tramps, were observed
hanging around in the vicinity, and it
is not unlikely that they weic the par
ties involved in the attempted burglary.
