California seems to have had a' big run, and the south will receive the bulk of the win ter travel for a time at least. Well, we have as good a climate as can be found anywhere and ample accommo dations for all. A Private Car. »A private car is being built in the railroad shops here for Mr. William Campbell.

Walter Snodgrnss and J. M. Dreycr, return ed at noon yesterday, and his Honor, A. H. Hansell, Col. A. T. McIntyre, R. G. Mitchell, Esq., nnd Mr. J. L. Hall, returned late yesterday after noon. The committee on subscriptions for the barbecue are still canvassing and meeting with success. They are good men for the work and are cheerfully giving their time to the cause. Let every one respond as liberally as pos sible when waited upon by them, and thus lighten their labors and insure the success of the undertaking. There is no doubt about the people being here on the 15th, and we cannot af ford to have auy scarcity of supplies. Lend a helping hand and let us make the 15th truly a big day.„ Mrs. John Lawrence and children,* of Quincy, Fla., were at the Wbiddon yesterday en route to Cuthbert, on a vist. THOMASVILLE, GA Tribute. At the last meeting of the General Benevolent Society, the following pa per, proposed by Miss Etta Reid, Miss Julia Stark and Mr. L. H. Jerger, was unanimously adopted: In reflecting over the loss from our number ot Mrs. Retta C. Hansell, by her entry, at the bidding of the Mas ter, into that higher life—the reward of them that, like her, are faithful to the end—we feel that our right arm has been lost. Ever ready, not alone in planning or advising, but doing, and that with an honest earnestness, whatever was . to be done, she was indeed our strength. Possessed naturally of a nobility of soul rarely seen, the grace ot God abounding in her heart, she extended her loving sympathy to all within her reach, and sought to alieviate suf fering, remove its cause, and elevate the sufferers, whether from poverty or vice, and direct them in the way of life everlasting. To do good seemed the motto of her life. Public-spirited and modest, wheth er in doing honor to the memory of the heroic Confederate dead, in work ing for the cause of temperance, in promoting tlio growth nnd welfare of her church, in relieving tho distress of poverty and want, she was the real leader and main-stay of the work, though geneially declining the honors of leadership, and in n private capaci ty doing the principal work ,of tho undertaking, That one who was so bright a light, so estimable an example in the com munity, so helpful to so many of her fellow beings, should ho called away in the midst of her usefulness, is to us who enjoyed the privilege of her companionship, one of “His ways that arc past finding out.” But, while burdened with grief at our loss, wc must turn to the great Father of all, with gratitude that He gave her to us while she was of earth, aud contem plate with pleasure the “joy unspeak able and full of glory” that is now hers. Put your stock in trim for the 15th November. The premiums are not large, but they should not be the in centive. Bring what you have, that others may profit by your success. An annual exhibit of our productions and resources would result m great good to the county. It would infuse a spirit of home pride, and stimulate emulation to a degr« that would soon place our County and section in the foreground; make our people better contented and more prosperous, and attract a healthy class of immigration. In the multitude ot other things demanding your time and attention, do not forget the 2$th ot November. Make your arrangements to be there aud contribute whatever you can to make the day a pleasant ’ one and the occasion a grand success. A good many will go from here next week to the exposition. Misses Mary and Maggie Swirdell, of Bainbndge, -were at the Stuart yesterday. Railroad Subscriptions. Messrs. Smith and Hawkins made a partial canvass of the town yester day, and raised about ten thousand dollars in stock for tho proposed road fiom Augusta to this point, making the subscriptions now aggregate about 830,000. It is to be hoped that they will raise tho additional 820,000 to day. Let our people come up prompt ly and subscribe, nnd not keep aloof because they don’t want to take large subscriptions. TI10 subscriptions so far have been small amounts, and this will ho best for the town, for it makes more people interested in the enterprise. There are, undoubtedly, two or three men in our community who could, without feeling it, take the entire amount naked for, but it is not right that they should bo asked to do so. This is a duty that every citi zen and tfx payer of tho town owes to his home and family. It is a good investment, and is calculated to en- hauco the value of our property, nnd place our town on a footing with other points where there is railroad competition. But we have so often spokeD of the importance of another railroad that it would be hard to suggest an original idea on the sub ject. Let our people at once subscribe and put the ball in motion for another outlet. Arrested. Sheriff Hurst arrested 011 yesterday and lodged in jail, Dave Ashby who is charged with assault with inteut to murder the man Guy Monroe, who was shot on Mr. Robt. Vnrna- does place Monday night. Trap Shooting. Eight members took part in the trap shootine yesterday afternoon. Three matches were shot. In the first,Messrs White, Stark, Young and Culpepper tied lor first money. In the shoot off Culpepper won. I.ee took second money. In the last match Culpepper again won first and Young and Lee tied and divided second. Mr. E.H. Daniel, of Bainbridge, was in the city, yesterday. Pierce Hatley is now with II. Wolff & Bro. The fox chase has been postponed from this morning to Monday, ou account of being unable to get the dogs ready for the chase to-day.
