It Is said that the peaeh crop of this season Is the finest thnt has been seen In several years. Dougherty county will have one of the prettiest Court Houses In tty? State when It is finished. Dougherty must not be behind the times. We need an Improvement on the old Court House, and ought by all means to linve it. The watermelon senson Is at Its height. From fifteen to twenty cars of them, raisedTn Dougherty and ad joining counties, go north everyday. Ten or twelve more cars loaded with Iron piping for the waterworks have been received, and will be unloaded and distributed over the city in nshort while. Every year more and more atten tion is being given, in Dougherty and the surrounding counties, to tlie cul ture of grapes, and more and more clearly is the fact being demonstrated that nowhere does this fruit thrive or mature more perfectly than here. C. The advertisement of Messrs. C. II. Camfield & Co. appears in this issue of the Herald,and we take pleasure in calling tlie attention of our renders to it. Maj. C. II. Camfield Is/well and favorably known throughout South west Georgia, and lias many friends who will entrust their business to him. lie is 110 novice in the cotton business, and those who mnrkct their cotton through him will get the benefit of nil thnt tlie market affords. The Herald is glad to welcome Maj. Camfield hack to Albany, and wishes hint the sucoebs thnt lie merits in the warehouse nnd commission business. ■muTueislnyV Kvcsfku hkiiai.d. Tlie Board of County Commissioners decided, to-day on tlie plans for the improvements on tlie county Court House, the result being thnt those of Mr. G. I,. Norman, of Atlanta, were accepted. Plans were presented by Meiers. Bruce & Morgan, of Atlanta, McDon ald & Bros., of Louisville, Ky„ G. L. Norman, of Atlanta, nnd W. K. Gunn, of Albany. All the plans presented were in fact admirable, nnd met tlie requirements for the improvements of the building; hut In their choice the Commissioners lmd to he guided by cost of construction ns well ns beauty nnd convenience. The plans of Mr. W, R. Gunn were examined closely by the Commission ers, nnd were very much admired by them as well as by many of the friends of Mr. Gunn, who also inspected them. They were somewhat more elaborate than those which were accepted, lint the cost of the Improvement which they represented being about $110,000, It was a little more than the county could stand at the present time. The fact thnt the county was unable t({ no- cept these plans occasioned some I ttle disappointment nulling the friend of Mr. Gunn. N<r disparagement, however, If in tended to those of Mr. Noonan, wjilch were excellent In every respect. Iitfaot, they met (lie requirements of the Ooni- infssioners I11 every respentjand .will give us a building of which tlie pity may bo proud. Tile cost of these im provements according to tile plans selected will not exceed $20,000, and they will be such ns the exigencies of the case will require. It seems that Bisnmrek is on the verge of being forced to swallow 11 dose of his own physic. In former days, when lie was practically at the head of the German Empire, lie taught the doctrine thnt the King could do no wrong. Now flint somebody else Is King, and the iron-handed old chan cellor seems not inclined to submit peacefully to the dictates of tlie young Emperor,. there is some serious talk about liis being prosecuted for trea son, if lie does not keep quiet. “How is the mighty fallen.” The following from u letter by David B. IIIII to Tammany on the oc casion of their Fourth of July celebra tion, shows clearly his true and open loyalty to the candidates chosen by tlie party. It will be seen that he realizes thnt unity isessentlnl to party success: “Our course at the present time is plain. The Democracy of New York, in the approaching struggle, should present a solid front to the common enemy. Loyalty to thd - car dinal Democratic principles and the regularly nominated candidates is the supreme duty of the hour.” Grover Cleveland is undoubtedly thq typical representative American of ■.to-day. The following from speech by Chauncey M. Depew shows in what esteem he is held by Rcpubli. cans ns well ns Democrats; “If I am to nnme the typical American, the mnn who loves and believes in his country beyond everything else—the mnn who, determining once in wlint direction Ills duty lends, cannot be swerved from the path—the mnn who is doggedly persistent in what he believes to bo right—the man who thinks not of seif, but of his country nnd its needs, would name Grover Cleveland. What he has accomplished is the very high est tribute to the possibilities of Amer ican citizenship.” ftcroNcnc. ISO Proof, Ten Cent*. Best Water-white Oil, 150 per cent, at 10c. per gallon. L. S.

The numerous railroad which are being chronicled every day throughout Georgia and other South ern States, will not, perhaps, be so surprising M’lien it is learned that the litigation and damage suits in which the railroads in Georgia are involved annually, consume more than one- third of tlie gross earnings on tlie mileage within the State. The other two-tliirds, being fully consumed in paying operating expenses, there little left for improvements, not to speak of dividends to the stockholders. In a great measure the burden of all this falls upon the people, for, besides the enormous volume of litigation which is conducted in courts main tained by the tax-payer, thousands of employes and railroad hands remain idle from one year’s end to the other. Notwithstanding these factB, the fight on the railroads is still kept up with Renewed bitterness. The people will find out in tbe end the seriousnes of tbeir mistake in making continual war upon corporations by which tbe coun try has been built up, and without which it could not exist. burden of taxation which it M-niild lay upon them. It was surprising how many of them signed the potiHnn, and "amongthem were many,of our most prominent men.' They objected ns much to the county going in debt ns to anything else. Their principal nrgu- ment against it was the legal point in volved. It is said that no county can lawfully make appropriations for such a purpose except by consent of a two- thirds majority of the legal voters. Were the question one of repairs sim ply, it would have to go through no such process, but those who object, claim that it is equal to the construc tion of a new building. The county commissioners are ready of course, to submit to tile will of the people of the county, but they have thoroughly considered the matter, and it is their decision that there sliouldbe some decided improvements in the present structure. A well known citizen remarked yes terday that the present building was amply sufficient for the needs of the county, and that he was unwilling that the county go iu debt, or the people be taxed for tlie purpose, for tlie construc tion of the waterworks would lay suf ficient burden upon the tax payers. He overlooked the fact that the ren tal from tlie waterworks will more than maintain it. However all this may be, it was sta ted on the streets yesterday, that the petition originated in the dissatisfac tion of the friends of Mr. Gunn, whose plans were for some reason rejected by the Commissioners. It seems that it M-as understood that this rejection of Mr. Gunn’s plans would result in such a petition, and such seems to have been the case. Dougherty is in urgent need of a new Court House, or one at least which shall be a decided imprpvement on the old one; and as the plans propose noth ing else but improvements, the legal point can scarce be considered as at all affecting the action of the Commis sioners. It is hoped that they will stand firm in their decision. them. Come on nnd at the same. much appreciated by t: nnd enJAy yourself, hand to tlie Gunn time, lejql a helping lrds. K.

There is a great deni of diversity of opinion among the people of Albany regard to the long clamored for union passenger depot, which is now nearing completion. After several years spent in repeated though vain endeavors to persuade’tlie railroads entering tlie city to ereot a depot suitable to the needs of the pub lic, the Railroad Commission of the State was finally induced to Jgive the matter personal attention, which re sulted in the respective roads being notified that they must cither build separate depotB which must come up to a certain standard, or all unite and build a union depot, the pinns of whioh were to be approved by tl)c com mission.

Gunn, the architect, called at the Herald office this morning and lodged the complaint that an injustice was done him in tbe article that ap peared in yesterday’s paper with ref erence to the estimated cost of the roads, and work was soon commenced on the building, which would, the peo ple fondly hoped, end their clamor!tigs for better depot facilities. But now that the building is near ing completion a good deal of dissatis faction is being manifested by some of tlie people of Albany, who seem to think that it is not coming up to the standard that the size of tlie city and number of its railroads warrant. Not that the work isn't being done in a perfectly satisfactory manner, but the plan of the building is what causes the dissatisfaction. A great many people, in fact most of them, think that a car-shed should have been built, as no other struoture could meet the growing demands of Albany. Others think that the build ing that is being erected is exactly tbs thing, only it is entirely too small and inadequate for tbe public needs. And some take an optimistic view of tbe case, and say “Let well enough alone.” This is a sensible way to view the matter for, although we feel somewhat disappointed at wbattbe railroads have given us, we ought to feel thankful that they didn’t succeed in dodging us again and keep us using tbe old Shebang of former days.
