HARRIS, RAINES* A C’O.
The above firm is composed of thoroughly
Southern gentlemen, from Tennessee, Geor

fully in the Confederate army, and are now
doing a large wholesale business in the
: City of New York. Their customers, of
course, ar” Southern men, and that the
South might find true Southern men to trade
: with in that city, they entered into hu-i
----ness. Their representative in this section
i is Lieut. L. F. Choice, formerly of the 57th
j Georgia Regiment, so well known to many
in this section. Wo had the pleasure of
meeting Lieutenant Choice in our sanctum
a few weeks ago, and was pleased to find
him enjoying splendid health. We hope

that through his great energy and success
in the South. See advertisement in anoth

From a communication to the Bainbridge

great revival has been going on in Cuth- ■

three Churches, Methodist, Baptist and

Park* of the Methodist, says the corres
pondent, together with Mr. Gwen. Mr
Wardlaw, Mr. May, local Methodist Minis

Baptist Minister, went to work in good
earnest, to revive the lost religion of the
community. They established a regular
preacher and pastor’s meeting, where they
met to consult and talk over the best means |
for promoting religion, and all went faith
fully to work 4 revival immediately broke
out in the Methodist Church, extended to
the Baptist Church, and we hope to hear,

this united action of the Churches is de- j

ROI TII GFORCIA A FI.ORIOA
R 111. ROAD.
Our readers will recognize in the above
head, the projected Rail Road from Albany,
’ On., via Thomasville to Monticello, Fla.
This road was chartered long before the
war, received a subscription in this section
of about $70,000, was surveyed, and. dur
! ing the war. sold out to the Atlantic & Gulf
: Rail Road Company. The Atlantic & Gulf
Rail Road Company, we understand,bound
| themselves in the terms of purchase, to
begin the work within three years from the
i time of sale. They thought at that time
’ aid could be obtained for it of the Confed
erate Government, and Maj John Screven,
President of the Company, spent much
time in Richmond endeavoring to procure
such aid, but the Confederacy was too much
engrossed in military operations, and al
-1 ready too deeply involved in financial spec
-1 ulations, and Major Screven failed in his
j mission. Since that time the destruction
’ of the wea'th of the country, and the dis
i ordered state of society, have been unfav'o
ra le to the agitation of the question of
building rail roads in this section, and the
South Georgia & Florida Rail Road enter-
I prise has lain dormant. Rut peace has
been restored, society become quiet and in
a measure harmonized, while business has
1 sprung up afresh in every department, and
! men begin to handle large sums of money
1 as in former days, while there is no longer
any slaves io purchase, or any de-ire to
invest in lands for speculation.
These things admonish us that the time
has arrived for the beginning of the great
work, which, all are agreed will be of the
greatest importance to the future growth
and pro-peritv of our beautiful little town
If we neglect the opportunity, the time is
j not far off when we shall have the niortifi
| cation to see the energy and enterprise of
I other communities sapping the very foun
’ dation of our wealth and prosperity, and
drawing off by their rail roads, all that
! now maxes our property valuable. We all
i know that the Atlantic & Gulf Rail Road
must soon be extended to Bainbridge, and
finally, to Mobile, and when this happens,
| Thomasville will be shorn of the present
benefits derived from being the terminus
!of that road. Already the Atlantic & Gulf
i Road has secured the Live flak connection
with Middle Florida, and that connection
! having been formed nearly one hundred
I miles East of Thomasville, there is no long
i er any hope of bringing the influence of
! that work to bear upon the South Georgia &
I Florida Rail Road, Deprived of these ad
vantages, Thomasville must sink into the
1 insignificant importance of a railway sta
tion, and thus disappoint the hopes of her
friends, and all those who have propfe
! sied and marked out for her a brilliant.
! career in the future. Shall it be done?
| Shall we not all unite heart and hand in
! this great work for our mutual good ? It
1 is folly to say we are not able to build this
! road. It would be as sensible to say we
| ceuld not pay our taxes, when we knew,
: that unless paid, our whole property would
I be sold at an enormous sacrifice. If we
build not this rail road, then our whole
i property is indeed sacrificed,and that with
l out remedy. We are able te begin tlie work,
and our observation has taught us- that a
: rail road once veil begun will build itself.
lias not every man some, such experience
■as this ? Look at the resources of the
! country through which this road must run.
I Examine the survey and wonder at the
cheapness of its construction. Look at the
necessity of its construction. Middle and
East Florida desire an outlet to the great
meat and bread market of the Northwest,
and Southern •'eorgiadongs for direct com
munication with the northern and middle
portions of the State. Foreign capital may
he brought in and profitably invested in
the enterprise, and we have no doubt that
JP amp port plft will loy hold .on this work
with energy nr.d resolution, it can he com
pleted in two years,-or about the time the
Atlantic & Gulf Hoad arrives at Bainhridge.
Even’ man holding properly in the County
can subscribe something toward the build
ing of this road, and when they see that
the value of their property will thereby be
increased, they will not hesitate to do it.
Albany and Monticello will join heartily in
the work, am! the intervening counties will
unt he behind. . Let us bestir ourselves in
this matter, and wake up from the lethergy
into which we have fallen over our vital
interests. The Atlantic & Gulf Rail Road
and all Middle and East Florida, are also
deeply interested and will give their aid.
Let us at once have an understanding with
the holders of the charter, and ascertain
what is necessary first to he done. If the
Atlantic & Gulf Rail Road Company, ns
owners of the charter, are willing and will
begin the work let them do so, and imme
diately call upon the localities interested
to come to their aid. The people will not
stand back,when they are shown the im
portance of the work to their own future
prosperity. We can make a good beginning
on the work, and that will insure confi
dence, and confidence will give impetus.
a
f APT. R. R. SHITH.
The many friends of this gentleman, ; n
this immediate section, will be glad to he ftp
that he is in a prosperous condition, a n j
as usual, receiving the highest co-mpliiue n t s
of those around him for the skill aud abjp
ity with which he conducts, the insiitu|j 0n
of learning in his charge. The following
from the Augusta Chronicle <j* Sentinel will
locate our old friend, the Captain, and
pays but a just tribute to his worth :
“It was our privilege to attend the clos
ing exercises at the semi-annual session of
the Union Point Academy on Thursday
last. The school was established soon after
the war by Capt. R B. Smith, of Florida,
where he had been successfully engaged in
teaching previous to the war. After four
years of arduous and honorable service in
the army, as Captain in the 7th Florida
Regiment, during which he was several
times severely wounded, he has returned to
his favorite profession. He is assisted by
Miss Lou Prudden, of Eatonton, a lady of
thorough accomplishments, especially in
music and the French language, of which
departments she has charge.”
Then follows a very lengthy account of
the examination, full of the highest com
pliments to the originality, skill and ability
of Capt. Smith, but which we have no room
to publish.
