Thomasville glories in a twenty- acre strawberry patch, owned by Messrs. Blackshear & McKay. Will it break up the Bourbons to appoint Pleasants to fill E. C. Wade’s place ? Not much—it will make them solid. •» •’"’**** Florida has made her first shipment of encumbers. They were shipped by Dr. Bruce, of Micnnopy, via Mal lory’s line. Collector Clark, of Atlanta, bus been ignored by tho Arthur party.— That’s all right. Let them heep up the iike of that all over tho South.— It's good medicine. A poor wretch in Griffin went off the other day and pawned his family Bible for n drink of whisky. No more -striking illustration could he given of the naturo of the iron bondage in which the whisky habit holds its vic tims. Tho Fernandina Express has waged war upon tho numerous four-footed animals that have obstructed the streets of that city. Having shut up all snclf nuisances, it has now opened fight on tho two-legged ones—the loafers. STJLL, ANOTHER LINE ACROSS TH* CONTINENT.

Quit the rauohe, gentlemen, and come over with the Bourbons.— They reward faithful officers. A man and woman by tho nmo of Martin moved to Texas last year.— They got thoroughly disgusted, and, having spent all their money, struck out for Georgia on foot, counling cross-ties the entire distance to At lanta, except from Dalton to Mariet ta. The woman thinks Texas “the hatefullest country in the world; they don’t have nothing there but greasers and tarantulas.” Thoy were seven weeks in making the return trip. Washington, D. C., February 28.— President Arthur, in conversation with a delegation of Southern Repub licans yesterday, said, in substance, as follows: “Two main objects will char acterize my course ns President of the United States. I will do all in my power to build up and strengthen the Republican party in the North and all in my power to break up and disinte grate tho Democratic party in the South. Central Railroad stock, under tho Alexander party management, I dropped to 128}, and no demand at these figures, whereupon the Telegraph and Messenger advises that these gen tlemen resign and let a conservative board be qleoted. Not so, but rather get rid of every vestige of old-fogy- ism, headed by Mr. Wadley, and let anew era dawn upon the country through which the Central runs. Let a line of policy be adopted which will foster the industries along the road, and build up at least one »i h>i*e along its line.; ~ ' The AVuw and Advertiser oives the particulars uf the killing of a colored man uarned Wright, near Albany, Ga., bv a white man named William- tried to mount bu njule, out cor not.

The line is to be known as the Texas, Topolobambo & Pocifio Railway and Telegraph Co., and will connect with the Texas system of railroads. Our exchange goes on to say that “in addition to tho plan of the road as at present projected in Mexico, tbore is a purpose to combino with and perfect the Erlangor system of railroads in Georgia and to form a transcontinental line making an al most direct route from Brunswicc, Ga., on the Atlantic coast, to Topolo- bambo, on tho Pacific coast.

The distanco from St. Louis to San Fran cisco, by the way of Omaha and the Union Pacific, is 2,338 miles. By the Southern Pacific, via El Paso, the distanco from St. Louis to San Fian- cisco is some 400 miles less th n the distanco last named.’’ BY BOX ARP.

There is not a human be ing in the country so ignorant as to believe that Mr. Roscoe Conkling would have been awarded the highest judicial office in the gift of tho Presi dent if a cold-blooded assassin had not first mnrdered the President whom the people elected. For that horrible murder no man living is thought by tho people of the United States more responsible than Mr. Conkling himself. Mr. Conkling has no standing at the bar to entitle him even to bo thought oi in connection with the supreme bench. Mr. Conk- ling is unfit for the supreme bench oi any other bench, because be is not a man of judicial temper. Everybody— friend and foe alike—knows him as an intense, red-hot partisan, who never secs or can nevor see more thau one side of a question. This nomination is grossly unfit, because it is a fla grant abuse of the appointing power to use the snpremo bench to pension a broken-down politician, who has made himself to the last degree odi ous to the people.

Do the boys know that when a horse crops grass he oats back to him, but a cow eats outward from her, because she has no front teeth in her upper jaw and has to gum it?' Do they know that some kinds of snakes lay eggs and some don’t, but give birth to their yonng ? Do they know that a cane gets its full growth in a year, whether it is large or small, and the limb of a treo never gets any higher from the ground, no matter how high the tree grows?

I was down in the piney woods not long ago and saw thousands of little salamander hills alongside the road and asked tt good many people abont them, but nobody I asked had ever seen one or know anything about them, except one man, and bo said they were like a large rat with a short tail and had a poach or pocket on each side to carry roots and bngs and nuts in.
