Our people still retain pleasant roe- ollcctiohs of the meeting of the State Horticultural Society in this city last year. The meeting was composed of citizens from all parts of the state and was a fine representative body of Georgians. Our people, as they al ways do, strove to entertain them in a creditable manner and to make their stay with us as pleasant as possible, One of the delegates, who is now look ing to Thomasville as a future home, in a private letter to one of our citi zens, says: "My experience on last summer’s visit to your town satisfies me as to a welcome. I never met a people with whom I was Letter pleased, and I lie lieve this was the sentiment of every .member of the horticultural society.” That was the first and only visit of the gentleman to Thomasville, and impressions then formed were such as to create the desire to locate here. Wc trust he will consummate his plans and locate with us. Thomas villc has a place and a welcome for all such clever gentlemen as we know him to be. Attention Stock Breeders.

With this object in view a full attendance ot all the members is requested at a meeting hereby called at the Presi dent’s office, at 10 a. m. on Saturday the 7 th inst. Every citizen of the county, in anywise interested in stock raising, is a member under the By- Laws of the Association, and a full attendance at the meeting and hearty co operation in the effort to make the coming exhibit better in all respects than any of its predecessors. Turn out, gentlemen, and let us havp a full meeting. Bv order of the President. J. T. Chastain, Seely. In the County Court. Jack Woodson was tried before Judge Mitchell Monday for fighting. Jack and another negro, named .Jef ferson Griffin, engaged in a quarrel Saturday night,in which Jeff was cut, though not severely by Woodson. Woodson plead guilty to assault and battery, and the charge of stabbing was withdrawn. lie Was fined 826, with the option of working six months on the “gang.” Died, James Aikcns, colored, died Mon day, and was buried yesterday after noon. The Odd Fellows’ Lodge and the colored Fire Company, to both of which he belonged turned out at his funeral. Special to Bainbridge. C'apt, Fleming and General I’asscii gcr agent, W. M. Davidson, arrived yesterday morning on the morning train from Savannah, and took a special here to Bainbridge. They returned in the afternoon. Wooden Crossing. The wooden crossings from Starks corner to J. (). J. Lewis, and Leu is to Sheffields, and from the latter corner to Jergcrs were torn up yester day, on account of being badly de cayed, and new sound timbers are being put down/ instead. The cross ings at the interscctipn of Jackson and Madison, need attention badly. They are in constant use. All indications point to one of the most brilliant and successful seasons Thomasville has ever known. More applications for houses to rent, and for bbard , both in hotels and in pri vate boarding houses, are being re ceived than ever before, Jos. Beverly. Attention is called to the advertise ment of Jos. Beverly, who succeeds Fife & Beverly, in the extensive mer chandise and milling business, at Meigs. No hotter man than Joe. Beverly can lie found, and those who deal with him will find him fair and square. The fall term of the South Georgia College opens to-day. Some of the former scholars from a distance have already returned, to bo hero ou open ing day, while othors will return this week. The school boys and girls have had a long holiday and will re turn to their studies witli renewed energy and ambition. At the suggestion and request of President Lovejoy, of the South Gn. College, we slate that, for the present, at least, only one uniform suit will he required by the cadets -of the college The bide are about all in and it is safe to say that the full suit, caps and all, will cost somewhere between ten and fifteen dollars. “Through the kindness of a friend we were furnished with a copy of the Times-Enterprise, in which we noticed that Mr. Hardy Paulk marketed the first hale of cotton in Cairo. In jus tice to Mr. Samp. Williams, who may well he caBcd ‘Primus the second,’ wc desire to say that he (Mr. 'Wil liams) claims that honor.”—Cairo Record- »♦« mm Mr. W. F. Thompson, who has been assistant car inspector here for 'omc time,has gone to River Junction, and accepted a position as inspector for the L. A N. Ry. and tho F. R. & X. Co. Mr. Orr, ot Montgomery, has been sent to this place in his stead. Mr. Orr held the same position with the Central, at Montgomery. The action of council (see proceed ings) will satisfy those who object to park bonds, on the probable large expenditure on the grounds. These improvements will not be made until other, and more pressing work, is ac complished. If Thomasville would keep, of in crease her winter business, she must preserve Paradise Park. This propo sition cannot be successfully rcluted. Rev. N. B. Ouslcy and family left for Thomasville Monday, where they will make their future home. Mr. Ousley is an able divine and Cairo will sustain no small loss in the remo val ot his family from our midst.— Cairo Record. Wc gladly welcome this family to our city. They arc domiciled on lower Broad street, at the Wolff resi dence, first door above Mr. Davies residence. Tho Purchase of the Park Endorsed—Tho People Speak. More than three hundred tax payers, many of them the largest in the city, met at the court house last night to discuss the purchase of Paradise Park. Mr. W. R. McIntyre was made chaiiman of the meeting, and Mr. E. M. Mallettc secretary. At the request ot the chair, Mayor Hopkins explained the object of the mating. Mr. E. M. Mallettc offered the fol lowing resolution': Resolved, That it is the sense of this meeting that bonds should be is isuSW for the purchase of Paradise Park. Mayor Hopkins proceeded to ad dress the meeting, giving clear and convincing reasons why the park should be purchased. His arguments were simply unanswerable. His re marks were listened to throughout with the closest attention. Dr. T. M. McIntosh responded to repeated calls, to simply endorse the purchase. . Mr S L. Hayes submitted a few remarks, closing with a suggestion that the colored tax payers, many of whom werc.prcscnt, be heard. This brought Messrs. Hamilton, Carter, Royal, Hen derson and Smith into the discussion. We put it mildly, when saying that Jack Carter brought down the house. It was a good park speech, without doubt. The feeling was all one way, no one appeared to oppose the movement. There were about three hundred in the meeting. The chairman, at the close of the discussion (in which opponents of the park were invited to participate) put the resolution offered by Mr. Mallettc. It passed unanimously, lacking one vote, and that was not a very loud one The meeting demonstrated one thing, clearly: the citizens ofThom- nsvillc,white and colored, are in favor of tho purchase of Paradiso Park. The monthly meeting of tho “Gen eral Benevolent Society” will he hold to-day, Sept. 4, at the Library, at 5 o- clock, )>. in. The members arc re quested to attend. Miw.L. L.
