Even brother Woods is beginning to be careful how he publishes a snake sto ry, so we enter on the record of. this one with fear and trembling. It- was told us by a slightly colored man who had been a servant on a United States man-of-war during the Mexican war, and we expressing our doubts, he prompt ly referred us . to a friend who was an eye witness. This friend is a most'esti- mable gentleman, and his word is as good as his bond- We would not think questioning his veracity on any subr ject—not even a snake story. However, lest it should be said that we expanded our facts into the realms of exaggertion, we have have had an affidavit duly pre pared and legally sworn to in which the narratives are set forth, and which tes timony we have on file in our office. Georgia 1 Houston County j Before, me in person comes S. H. Gates, of said County, who being duly sworn, deposes and says, that a negro" shot and killed a moccasin SDake near Thurman’s mill in the Coun ty of Houston on Thursday; the 31st. of July 1879, out of which he cut forty young snakes, each of which was about eight inches long; That the old snake was over four feet long, and very Urge around the body, that the young ones were very tender and died soon after be ing removed by the Caesarian operation; that deponent in person saw the snakes with his own eyes, being at the time sane and sober and in fall possession of all his faculties; and that he makes this affidavit freely and voluntarily, not being influenced by fear, favor, or affection, reward or the hope thereof. S. H. Gates. Sworn to and subscribed before this August 2, 1879, A. S. Giles, Ordinary, H.C. It is not generally knowi/that poison ons snakes are viviparous, or bring forth their youDg alive, while other kinds lay eggs. We have read of this in works of zo-ology and we could relate facts to further verify it, but as we have not the affidavits at hand, we will not do so. We have a good witm si, however, near Perry, who is ready to swear that be saw Dearly forty young rattlesnakes take refuge in an old one’s month, crawling down her throat, and another who will certify that he saw eight young mocca sins run out of an old one’s mouth. Now the first story above related is true, and we accept the fullest responsi bility for the same; Our rule regarding snake and fish sto nes are hereafter in variable, and none will be published unless legally sworn to.

We have had rains, yes, and to spare, but beiDg a Christian com munity we never grumble at either wet or dry. There is nothing new occurring or having occurred since last you heard from us, save and except our mutual friend Jake Visscber left on Monday un der suspicous circumstances. Some, thought from his looks and actions his idea was to commit suicide or to do worse for the dash of the human fam ily. Sure enough he returned this morning bringing one of the fairest daughters of JoDes county as Mrs J. G. V. May theirs be a long and bappy journey down the stream, of time with naught to appear as a breaker. Kufus A. Outler who had been a citi zen of this place since 1868 died in Ma con last Monday of billions colic. He bad been living at Gardi since Janua ry. The influx of watermelons continues unabated, yet onr M. D.’s are not reap ing a harvest though they appear hope ful. They bide their time. The biggest thing of the season was the reunion of the Beauregard Volun teers at Maj. B. hi. Bateman’s last Fri day, but as you were to be furnished with a copy of the proceedings it is unneces sary for me to particularize. Vet I wiH say “Big Farmer” has as good a crop as any man be he J Trig or * ‘Leetle” and the way he entertains people would show that he or his good lady or both wdud do credit to any modern Hotel. It was a good place for a hungry editor and you ought to have been present with our Burr. There was a considerable freshet in Flint liver the latter part of last week doing considerable damage to crops, bat the waters have about abated. A colored friend and fellow citizen who shot one of his brother voters on Capt. T. J. Massey’s place last Sunday, was brought np to this place yesterday for trial. He will be brought before his honor A. J. Hardison this morning, who will m all probability have Justice Waguon Jr. associated with him. Capt J. M.

CARO OF THANKS. Fobt Valley, Ga. , July 30 th. 1S79. To Ike Perry Library Association:— At the last regular meeting of the Fort Valley Library Association the President appointed the following com mittee to express the thanks of this body to your Association for the hand some donation to our Librrry of ah ele gant chandelier. It affords the Com mittee great pleasure to transmit this actiou to your body and we can assure you that your kindness and generosity will not be forgotten and we can only hope that at some future day it will be in our power to return the favor Very Respectfully, W. B. Matthews, T. O. Skellie, W. E. Blown, Editor Home Journal:— When onr minds wander back to the days of the Confederacy—the partings of soldiers with their families—tbe suf fering and dying upon the field of bat tle—the return of the soldier to his des olate home—the chairs at home made vacant by the war, and the condition of our yet proud tut down trodden South, we imagine that there is noth ing but something unpleasant connect ed with the war—we may have many a sad thought and believe all unpleasant. But this is a mistake. There are yet scenes of war record that are pleasant, Such was the case at Col. B. M. Bate man’s, of ycur county, on yesterday, the first day of August, As you were not present, doubtless you would like to hear of the third re union of Company “C.” of the Sixth Georgia Regiment. Ycur correspond ent was not a member, but was present, and will endeavor to give yon a short description of the day’s proceedings. It is unnecessary to speak in regard to the history of the company, as its war history has been written in a beau tiful and concise style and furnished in pamphlet form by- one of tbe company, Mr. Wendell D. Croom, of Honston county, a copy of.which will be sent you. By eight o’clock on the day mention ed, the members of the old company began to appear, and until late in the forenoon the servants were busy caring for the horses"and vehicles. Col. Bate man, who is an old member, met each at the gate, greeted them in his pleas ant way, grasped their hands and shook them a cordial welcome. I am not cer tain as to the number of the company present. I do not know how many are still living. They spoke of their suffer ing together while in tbe war; the posts guarded from Pennsylvania to Florida, and where many of their company were lost. But talking was not all. An in exhaustible supply of lager beer and lemonade was at tub disposal of the guests, and draught after draught of the foaming liquid and ice-cold lemon ade were tilted off. Your correspond ent could not join them in speaking of what happened on th 2 fields of Sharps- burg, Malvern Hill, Harper’s Ferry, and others, but around the board of these delicious drinks he was found ready to participate and sanction every move made iu that direction. He had seen more of that work than the en gagements on the grounds above men tioned. Everything passed on jovially and about rrid-day dinner was announc ed, and all repaird to the eating depart ment. It is useless to try to describe the good things that Mrs. Bateman had prepared, but suffice it to say that the table seemed, if possible, to groan under the weight of the most choice viands. 1 think there were ninety-five persons partaking of these delicacies and think ing it was well to be there. Your cor-' respondent was again a prominent mem ber of that kind of “duty,” which clos ed his career at the reunion. After all were done eating, and several bad en- jojed the fumes of a good Havana, the members came together for the trans action of business, and elected Lr. O. H. Richardson chairman, and W. D. Croom secretary. Tbe chairman called the house to order aud announced ready for business. The secretary called the roll, and all present answered to then- names, and as the absent ones were call ed som«* member would state the cause of their absence. Many were absent.— Some were seeking their fortunes in the far West; some in other climes; some lay upon the bed of affliction. Those that were present felt sad that the ab sent ones could not be there that day. But the cause of the absence ot most of the missigg ones tells still a sadder tale. The answer was too often “he is dead.” Many’s bones are bleaching in the Old Dominion State. The business went on. Mr. W. D. Crooms was elected perma nent secretary of the company. Col. W. C. Winslow, Judge G. W. Maddox, and Mr. J. A. Everett were elected honorary members, subject- to all the pleasures and penalties as bona fide members. The selection of the "place for the next reunion was done by bal loting, and Mr. Amos Murray, dt Fort Valley, was the lucky man. The regu lar day of meeting annually is the first day of August, but as that-day would be on Sunday in 1880, the 31st day of July in that year was selected. This ended all the business of importance. Some one called on CoL-. Winslow for a speech, which he. gave in the style so character istic of him. He being a new member did not say much, but toId some good jokes. Gol. B. M. Bateman was called on and refused for some time, but they wonld have him to say a little. He spoke, of tbe travels of the company, and how different he fonnd - the fare when he first west out to what it was when the war closed- He spoke of the many good things he got while North Carolina, and how many he did not get near the end in North Georgia. He did not attempt any speech, but gave a little family talk. Dr, Green was called for. He rose and directed the minds to the importance of a reun ion, and how closely united they should and did feeL These meetings being pleasant and serving to perpetrate the memory of”old company “C. ” and the gallant ones who fell at thepost of duty, should not be forgotten; that we had nothing t-o he ashamed of in onr strug gle;- the graves of those who fell most yearly be visited by us and a tribute of memory be paid to them. They did not die ih vain, and we should cherish mour heaits the principles for which they gave their lives. Dr. Green was absorbed in his subject, and at times displayed great eloquence. Col. If. M. Gunn was then cafiecifor, first uromi-tei! him i.» so strongly advo- cate these meetings. He spoke of how- well the company "stood to their posts in the hottest of fires, and of many of the missing ones who died fighting bravely, and who are yet lying, friend and foe, side by side. He caHed attention to members of other companies, of whom lie was an eye-witness in the uufaltering discharge of their whole duty, and would have been glad to have met them there, that day. Dr. Richardson was then called for. He rose and in a happy manner made a short-, but pointed and well timed speech. The meeting tLen adjonmed until the ntxt icgultr time. A1 seemed to be in the best of spirits and enjoyed the occasion to its fullest extent. Your coirespondent was too young to enter into the service dnriDg the late war aud Ihave al ways been glad jthat such was the case, but when one witnesses such a pleasant Reunion as he did at Col. B.

V. S. H EXAMINATION AT THOMSON S ACADEMY. Editor Home Journal:— In this section of onr county there seems to he a great, interest taken in the thorough education of the young, and in fact as great as any in the State, as is shown by the effort on the part of the people to .employ good instructors. Last Thursday morning the writer start ed on a journey of about six miles to at tend the annual examination at Thomp son’s Academy. This school is ably presided over by the ripe and thorough scholar, Mr. A. B. Parrott. This gen tleman having had an experience of about fifteen years, is fully jirepared to give io the young the best advantages that can he acquired outside of college halls. On reaching the grounds the writer was met by the urbane instructor and invited to take a prominent seat near the examination stand. The school room being quite small, a platform had been erected in front of the house for examination of the pupils, so that their performances might be clearly seen by the large crowd present. The pupils were thoroughly drilled in the English branches and Latin, showing a'thorough knowledge of the various parts upon which they were examined and a skill in the manner in which they were instruct ed. Tt would be a pleasure to give an account of the manner in which the members of each class acquitted them- bnt space and time will not permit.— Especially did we note the examination of Mr. Emmet Kemp in the ‘ ‘Oration of Oicero,” evincing a knowledge in the translation of that dead language which would have done credit to an older and riper scholar. It is hoped that ho wifi continue on in his attention to duty and application to study, and no doubt a bright future will await him. At one o’clock in the afternoon a sumptuous diuner, censitting of barbe- ed meat, nice bread, and delicious fruit, was prepared on the grounds near the school room, an d the hospita ble people of the neighborhood gave a cordial invitation to all present to join "in With them and to take from their festive board. The writer remembers never to have met with a "more hospita ble. urbane and clever people, nor to have seen a greater abundance of such nice eatables. -The polite manner in which they treated their guests has won for them the kind appreciation of all present. After dinner the crowd re-gathered in front of the school room to listen to the performances of the pupils in decla mation and compositions. The pro gramme was opened by the delivery, of a salutatory from Master Forrest Var ner. In a-very pleasant end natural style, he gave a cordial welcome to all present. It would be impossible to make personal mention of the manner in which each one spoke, therefore no tice can only be taken of a few. “Rien- zi’s last appeal to the Roman” was de livered in a clear and distinct voice by Mr. Samuel Thompson. Mr. Thomp son showed himself on this occasion to be somewhat of a natural orator, and would, no donbt, with a little practice, become a fine speaker.
