As much complaint as have been made about the inferiority of the peach crop this year, it now turns out to prove the best that has seen here for many years. The time is not far distant, when t,,e 8 na,m buyers W ‘N have to march to the front with the “apondoolix” or the cotton to raise that mighty Hen. We tire sorry to announce the loss of about 100 cords of wood, cut and battled to the roadside near town, by the S. F. »fe W. li’^Oo., on the 16th instant by fire. The wood the railroad was cut by J. W. Strickland for com pa»y Mr. John C. Blackburn has the best green seed cotton in the county. Now there is a board of aldermen elected and qualified we hope there will be steps taken to put the streets in good order. They have not been worked in about two years, and they arc in a bad condition. Cotton picket s can find work every day in this section of country, and at good prices.

Messrs. W. B. Mtdl us Co., Savan nah, wltose card appt ars in this issue, does a largo business in their line. They sell to men who have purchased both in the north and west, and this fact taken together with the fact that they aro high toned honorable busi ness men should secure them a large patronage in this section of the State.
