THE DEMOCRAT. FRIDAY. _ AUGUST 10, 1877. LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Dr. Durham’s Liver Pills have no superior as a family pill. If subject to billious spells, take Dr Durham's BLOOD PURIFIER.

Tlie History of Taliaferro Count?, we are happy to say will be resumed, very probably next week, and continued reg ularly to the end. A Good One.

Then they might sell the reversion. Like beautiful jewels in brazen settings are handsome features upon a face marred by signs of blood poisoning. The great Mixture. purifier of the blood is Dr. Bull’s Blood Personal Card. In our advertising columns, to-day, will be found a “personal card” of Mr. tl. A. Hamlet, of Thomson. Of course, tee have no interest in the matter ex¬ cept the remuneration for an advertise¬ ment. The Crops. From many quarters come the com¬ plaint of sorry crops ; and Dom what we have seen we deem these complaints well founded. Some instances are reported of good crops, but they are by no means general. We do not think, let tho seasons be what they may, the average yield will be more than a half a crop. A Modern Munchausen. A slight pressure on our columns and a lack of time, force us to defer giving the exploits of our modern Munchausen by flood and field this week, and do the subject justicc. YY'e are collecting mate¬ rials and will try to give the history in our next. Religious. The annual meeting of the Baptist Church begins at this place to-day. The meeting will continue till Sunday night, and perhaps longer. Rev. A. I. Hartly is now here, and Rev. YY\ N. Clmudoin is expected to-morrow. These minis¬ ters will assist the regular pastor, Itev. L. R. L. Jennings, in the conduct of the meetings. Fine Plum, Air. W. A. Wright has laid upon our table one of the largest and finest plums we ever saw. It was of the purple •damsen variety, weighed 2 ozs., and measured 5 j inches in circumference.— The fruit was taken from a young tree (the first year’s bearing) in tbe garden of Dr. J. W. Barnett, of Raytown in this county. Thieves vs. Peaches. Peaches are plenty, but thieves are more so. Air. Wm. R. Gunn informs ns that a raid was made on his orchard a few nights since, and several bags full of fruit carried off on horses. If these peach raiders could be made to spend a few months repairing the public works, we think they would learn to let other people’s property alone. Explained. The editor of the Greensboro Herald says friut : which “Many delicious friends thanks for the kind our have sent us this last week.” We’d tike to know justfor fun, what the fellow means by "kind fruit.”— Fort Valley Mirror. Pshaw, Christopher, don’t you know that brother Lewis is two lazy to arrange things right if they don’t fail out so at first. That’s, how it happened. The Weather. The long wished for rain has come at last; but we fear too iate to be of much benefit to the com and cotton crops. Yet it was most acceptable, as it will do other crops good and be well for the health of our people: The following is the rainfall, commencing with Sunday last, as measured at Liberty Hall: Wednesday Sunday .31 of an inch. 1.4.5 of an inch. Onr Fruit Basket. This week we have had much fine fruit and several fine melons. Mr. YY’. E, HallbweD, of Bearing, sent us, by the hands of Mr. W. J. Norton, a water melon weighing some 25 or 30 pounds, It was very, very fine, and we return many thanks. YY'e appreciate these favors of our friefids Very highly, and hope their generosity will meet its re ward in a good fruit crop next year. —-— • - The Child Can't Sleep, an Army of worms Indian is eating Vennifuge it up.

We are under obligations to a friend for an invitation to attend the Sabbath School celebration at Berzelia on yes¬ terday, the 9th inst,, and regret that we could not attend. We hope, however, our friends down there had a good time generally, and that they will let us know how weU they eD W ed themselves. ~— Invitatiou. de colored people cordially invite ad their white friends, and the public generally to attend their Concert, to be ST lnst - Exercises to commence at g o'clock. L. S. INGRAHAM, It. • Supt. Shoe House. If our merchants or citizens need a good article of shoes, by the pair Or by wholesale, they cannot do better than to Peter Keenan, of Augusta. Years of acquaintance with Mr. Keenan has never developed anything except truth and trust in his transactions. What he says may be implicitly relied upon. See his advertisement. Brought to Jail. Messrs. James M. Adkins and R. P. Atchi son brought Randal Lazenby to jail on Monday. R*nd. came from near and is alledged to have appropriated a pair of shoes to his own use which were claimed by a colored sister.

R i Ch r d AY J e h ° are m - glad to say upon the authority of Dr. Asbury, that the Institution is in a flourishing condition. It is an old and favorite school with our people, and could hardly do otherwise than well under the able faculty now presiding «, or If our people wish their daughters well educated, let them send them to Monroe Female College Omitted. In our notice of our trip to we unintentionally omitted to say that from Thomson to the city we were under the care of Mr. Hicks, conductor on the through freight, and found him botli polite and attentive. On our return, our destiny was for the time being in the hands of Mr. T. J. Woods, con¬ ductor on the passenger. Mr. Yvoo.ls is an affable courteous gentlemen, and leaves nothing undone to make ids passengers comfortable—to ladies lie is especially atteptive. If all the con ductors were of his sort how much trouble and anxiety would be saved to strangers. YY'e always like to travel with him Our Frnit Display. Several have sent us word that they, would have a specimen of their fruit on display at The Democrat office on next Wednesday, the 15th inst. YY’e hope that every one will come in, as the whole affair is intended to show what old Taliaferro can do when the lion is roused in her. A committee of three gentlemen will examine all specimens offered, and determine who is entitled to the belt. We suggest that the fruit, melons, etc., be brought in on Tuesday evening, so they may be properly ar¬ ranged and labelled. We wish to make the display as interesting as possible, and therefore, once more beg that everybody from everywhere come in. Nice Barbecue. By invitation, we attended a social barbecue, on last Saturday, at the Lan dram Union School house, (the Justice’s Court ground of the 006th District,) given by the people of that vicinity just to have a good time, and an interchange of friendly feelings and neighborly greet ings. When we arrived on the ground we found many, both ladies and gentle men, there, who seemed to be doing their best to enjoy themselves, and to all appearance were succeeding most ad mirably. At the proper hour dinner was announced, and adjourning to the table we found it Ailed with a variety of nicely barbecued meats, trimmings and condiments to make it fully and com¬ pletely a most excellent dinner. Nothing was wanting—there was an abundance. We enjoyed the dinner, (we were not alone in this respect.) and left the table ready to testify that the good peple up there are adepts in the culinary art__ We do not remember to have ever spent a more pleasant day ; not a harsh word was spoken nor a single discourteous act committed, and when the day was done the neighbors dispersed to their homes pleased with the day’s enjoyment, Pleased with their guests, pleased with their neighbors, and pleased with them sel7es - T ° Mr. J. D. (Carter) Evans, who *' as kind as to come for us, and whose guest we were while We remained in the neighborhood, and to his family we return many thanks for kind courte sies extended.

John Johnson, col., late of Wilkes county, and who was escorted across Little river by a committee from said county, probably for some great virtue, found employment on the plantation of Air. Ben. Reid,and piously went to work. But work is not all that said John John¬ son found; for Mr. YVillie Reid had a fine watermelon “patch” and John the Johnson, also found that, and not hav¬ ing the fear of the strong arm of the Law just then before bis mental vision, plucked a very fine seed melon on Satur¬ day night last, and on Sunday morning proceeded to investigate the inside filling of the melon. Willie Reid missed his melon, and began a search which ended in the discovery of (not the feathers) but the rines of his pet melon where they could only have been placed by John the Johnson. John was interviewed, and being offered a situation on the chain-gang, which, by-the-way, we are told he understands, effected a com promise by paying .«2 for the melon ’ an <1 working it out at 40cts. per day.— John will no doubt come to the cori elusion that watermelons are costly luxuries at that rate before lie gets done Paying for it, A Natural Curiosity.
