The small allowance for clerks here, the exactions of the position, the difficulty of securing enough compe tent help during the winter months, has made the office anything but de sirable. The fact is, that with the small allowance set apart for this office, it takes the great bulk of the income to pay lor running the office. Captain Sapp has been expecting—as all dem ocratic office-holders have—to hear his head drop in the basket any fine morn ing. For the reasons above, and the additional one that he preferred re signing rather than hold on, when his decapitation might be ordered by the republican powers that be, at any mo ment, his resignation has been volun tarily tendered. With the limited allowance which has been given him, lie lias adminis tered the office to die very best of bis ability, and with an earnest effort to serve the public faithfully. Capt. Sapp will go out of the office with clean hands, turning the office over to his successor—whoever,he may be—with correctly balanced books. May prosperity follow Henry M. Sapp wherever he goes. No man deserves more kindly treatment at the hands of fortune. Settled at Last. The county commissioners met yesterday' and purchased a three acre lot on Stevens street for a jail site. And they made a mightly good trade for the county. Private parties would have paid the same, perhaps more, for the lot. The price paid was $1,000. A representative of the Pauly Jail Co., will bo here on Monday, (he is now in Marianna, Fla.,) when work will promptly begin on the new jail. Every one is glad that the location is fixed, and. that work will commence at once. BRITISH MEDICAL ASSOCIATION. Death of Rosa Turnbull. We exceedingly regret the dcatli of Miss Rosa Turnbull, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thcadorc Turnbull, at their home in Miccosukie, on yester day, September 10th, of that terrible disease consumption. Her remains will be interred in the Monticcllo cemetery at 12 o’clock, m., to day Thc deceased had just budded into womanhood, being about 20 years of age, and was an accomplished and beautiful young lady,, the idol ot her parents and friends; but death has relieved them of the charge, and she passed to that bourne from whence no traveler returns—to that New Jerusalem, whose beautiful streets are paved with gold, and where the myriad host of angels are chanting praises before the throne of the eter nal ever more. We deeply sympa thige with the afflicted parents in their carthly loss, but they must remember that it is their Rosa’s eternal gain, for she is now an angel in heaven, habit ed in garments of spotless white, free trom sickness and stillering, and chanting hymns jf gladness before the jewet bedecked throne.—Monticoll.) Constitution. The many friends of the young lady in Thomasville will lie pained to learn of her death. A Thomasville correspondent writes: It may not be generally known that the hops of commerce glow luxuriantly in Thomas county. The claim is sometimes made that anything will grow here, and it seems to be about true. We have a fine sprig of hops now upon our desk. It is full of flower buds nearly ready for picking. It was taken from a vine in the yard of Mac Davis, a prominent colored citizen of Thomasville. Mac’s wife makes fine bread from yeast prepared from these hops. We have now before us an yeast cake made by her, and it is as fine as any in the grocery stores. The vine has grown until it covers the fence, a small house near by, a lot of shrubbery, and lias climbed to the top ot a neighboring tree. It presents a very graceful and pretty appearance, and is quite ornamental. Mac used to live near Miilcdgeville, and this hop vine was brought from that section. He remembers many of the prominent families ot Miilcdgeville ol ante-bellum days, and says they all used home raised hops.—Constitution. What It Says About Keeping Cities Healthy. Times-Enterprise: The commu nication from the chairman of the finance committee ol the council, ex hibits a splendid condition of our town treasury, and bow our prosperous state and the judicious manage ment ol municipal finances by the present council and refering to your editorial comments on tiic same in regard to the park purchase, as to our ample ability to make the purchase, I must say that all of those wiio have opposed that purchase on the ground of lack of means lor the purchase, it is a complete answer, and f am sure all honest objectors on that score can now have none. There are other honest objectors to the purchase who think Thomasville should have more sewerage before the park is purchased. To them I will quote from the proceedings of the British Medical Association, held at Leeds, England, last month as follows: Resolution, were introduced, among others, the following upon the disposal of town refuse, presented by the Sec tion in Public Medicine. 1. That this meeting hereby express es its disapproval of any system of middens, sewers, cesspits, dust-bins, etc., which involves the storage of filth or house refuse in the immediate neighborhood of dwellings. 2. That it further considers tiiat in towns, villages and other populous places the sanitary authority should itself undertake the removal of such refuse from each household at frequent, regular, and, in populous places, daily- intervals, at public expense, without waiting for notice to be given by the householder. 3. That it expresses its preference for small movable, water-tight recep tacles lor the collection of house refuse or other excreta, in order to fill the essential conditions of preventing pol lution of soil as well as air. Our city has been using this method now for a year, though not using the ‘water-tight receptacles,’ consequently if our present system is lolly carried out, we have the endorsement of the British Medical Association as to efficacy. Our sick list and death rate lor this summer lias botii been less than las summer. This, it seems to us, will satisfy the opponents of the park purchase, the ground of greater need fur sewer age. Respectfully yours, T. M. McIntosh, M.I). The .South Georgia College expecG to have one hundred and fifty pupils on its rolls, next week. This will lie a line starter for September.
