Robinson’s Circus.
The Morning News, speaking of
this circus, says:
Robinson’s circus gave two of the
most successful performances yester
day that it has given since its advent
.into the Southern States. Both the
afternoon and evening entertainments
were patronized to the full capacity of
the immense canvasses. At least
10,000 people saw the show.
John Robinson, Jr., proprietor of
the circus and son of the great show
man of the same name, who, for three
generations, contributed to the enjoy-
ment of the people, joined his circus
in this city, having been detained at
home by a bereavement, the death of
his wife. He will continue with the
show during its four weeks’ stay in
Georgia.
The circus train, consisting of forty-
six cars,'left this morning at 10 o’clock
for Jesup, where the circus will ex
hibit to-day. From thero it will
visit all the principal cities and towns
in Southern and Southwest Geor;
It is a show worth seeing, and under
the management of Mr. Robinson and
his worthy assistant, Mr. Lowlow, who
is a native Georgian, is well worthy,
not only the patronage of the people,
but of their courtesy and kind atten
tion.
John Lowlow is Georgia’s favorite
clown. He just can’t help from being
funny. Mr. Lowlow is the king of
jesters. It adds a span to one’s life to
see him in the sawdust ring.
Go out to-day and to-night and seo
the great show.
A Correction.
With that proverbial perverseness
of printers, (that’s a,very good allite
ration) lor putting tho wrong word in found in Abe*
the wrong place, tho compositor sub
stituted the word “obscene,” for “ob
scure,” in tho article headed “A New
Rebellion," yesterday morning. The
fact that the intelligent reader would
readily see that the work “obscure”
was intended, makes the mistake
none the less unpleasant.
In the Morning.
We understand that Mr. Joseph P.
Smith, who received his commission
some days ago, as postmaster, will
take charge of the office in the morn
ing. Mr. Smith has ordered a new
outfit, comprising several hundred
Yale lock boxes, and other furniture,
and says he intends to put everything
the best possible trim for this
winter’s work. And its going to be
heavy. The trouble is, that the sum
mer force is not equal to the demands
of the public, during the tourist sea
son. We have every reason to believe
that the new postmaster will leave
nothing undone to give tho public a
good postal service. He is pledged
to that; and he is not the man to
break a pledge.
Dr. Bower has aEcherae. He pio-
poses to take one hundred Thomas
ville babies to the state fair to com
pete for that 6200 premium for tho
finest baby. Mothers will have their
babies at the depot to-morrow morn
ing, each carefully labelled, to the
end that no confusion os to identity
may arise.
The Doctor is just the man to head
the movement.
Several parties, not blessed with
children of their own, are skirmishing
around to get some little fellows to
carry to see the animals to-day, The
children will have numerous chape
rones,
Mr. C. D. Davis and wife, of Texas,
were at the Whiddon yesterday. Mr.
Davis left for Tallahassee ia the af
ternoon, but his wife will remain here
several days.
Chairman Mitchell, of tho water
committee of city council, purchased
61 hydrants for the water supply of
the city, on yesterday, at very reason
able figures. These are important to
the usefulness of our fire department

The Livery Business.
No business in Thomasville has
grown more rapidly, pays better, or is
on a more solid foundations than the
livery business. A few years ago one
livery stable, with a carriage and
three or four buggies, sufficed to
meet the demands of the public. Now
we have four or five extensive stables,
heavily stocked with the finest saddle
horses, single and double teams, to be
outh. And the busi
ness still grows—and it will continue
to grow. Tho thousands of northern
and western people, who come to
Thomasville to spend the winter, take
to riding and driving like a duck docs
to water. The splendid drives
through pine forests; the advantage
of living out of doors, and the well
known good results which flow from
riding and driving tbiough the pines,
tempt these people out every fair day.
And there are but few days during
the winter, when visitors may not
ride and drive. Even with all our
well equipped stables, it is doubtful
if they will prove equal to the demand
this winter. Every indication points
to an unusually large crowd this sea
son.
The committee on subscriptions to
the stock breeders’ fair will call on
subscribers to-morrow. Be preparsd
to ante up.
And this reminds us that more
money will have to be raised. Not
less than $500 will be required. Let
everybody chip in something.
A Good Suggestion-
It has bceu suggested that the
Thomasville Guards extend an invi
tation to the Military companies, at
Valdosta and Albany, to attend the
confederate reunion here, on tho 15th
of November. Governor Gordon,
She peerless soldier and statesman will
be here, and it would be a propi
tious time to organize a battalion in
South Georgia. Thero aro three
crack military companies in this sec
tion, and they could form a splendid
battalion. What say our military to
tho proposition ?
