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 Special round trip tickets at one fare have been put on to ^his plape to-day by the railroad, the occasion being John Robinson’s circus, OF Fall 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 ? -AND Winter CLOTHING! and our line ol No. 7. was so far behind yesterday that it did not stop over for dinner. Mr. J. M. Vinson, of Tarpon Springs, Fla., was at the Stuart last night. Charley Davis couldn't stay away from the circus. He put in an appear ance last night. Mr. B. L. Hearn and family; of Cai ro, passed through here yesterday, en route to Jacksonville, Fla., where they will remain several months. Mr. Hearn has not changed his residence, but still clings to the wiregrass of south Georgia. The windows, stoops and verandas will be crowded on Broad street to-day, when the band begins to play and the procession proceeds. You see, there is no harm in watching the procession, and the church people can take this This will be a lively day with the merchants. Our friends from the country will see tho handsomest stocks of goods they have ever seen in Thomasville. And they’re cheap. Fast mail from Savannah was over two hours late yesterday, on account of the engine breaking down at Val dosta, and the delay in getting another engine. There is an active demand for houses to rent, board, Sec., by parties who purpose coming to Thomasville this winter. Some fine fish, such as trout, bream perch, &c„ caught out of Han cok’s pond, were selling at the market yesterday. Miss Maud Tonge, a popular young lady of Bainbridge, passed through yesterday en route for a visit to Balti more. Mr. J. R. Graves, of Bainbridge, passed through on the delayed train yesterday, en routo home from a trip to New York. In the shooting match yesterday afternoon Master Jimmie Hopkins made the best score by breaking 19 out of 24 clay pigeons. Mr. J. W. Hooker, and wife, re turned yesterday irom Hillsboro, N. C. Mr. Hooker has been connected with Lee & Cochran’s stables for sev eral seasons. Capt. Smith Lemon, a prominent citizen ot Acworth, Ga„ died at his residence yesterday. He was an inti mate friend and near relative of our fellow citizen, Judge Alexander. Mr. P. 6. Van Courtland, and nephew of Now York, arrived on yes terdays fast mail, and were met at the depot by a team and driven out to Charley Davis’ where Mr.- Van Courtland has been spending his win ters for several seasons past. The rural couple, holding each others hand, will be In town to day. You see he is afVaid of losing her; and sho is afraid of losing him. These cases aro very affecting. A pint of peanuts, a big stick of red striped candy, and a glass of soda water will be the bill ot fare. And yet this couple will be very happy. Ah well, such is life. MUST 60!
