Macon, Go., July 17th, 1871. )
The WEXERT Press.—Tbe thanks of
the State Agricultural Society are tender-
dered to the various weekly nowspapers
which have from time to time given pub
licity to important notions from this of-
Uoe—and, indeed, have never failed to
comply with the Secretary's request in
this respect. The servioe of tho office
has by these favors been incalculably aid
ed iu its efficicuoy. It is mainly by these
means that this office is enabled to hold
direct and frequent communication with
tho individual members of oounty socie
ties.
The Secretary, relying upon the past
liberality of these papers, with confidence,
requests that they publish in full the fol
ingcard:
Acknowledgments.—Acknowledgments
are due to members of Congress from
Georgia for valuable contributions of
books, documents and reports to tho Li
brary Society.
The thanks of tho Society arc tendered
Mr. Edward N. Dickerson, ltecording
Secretary, and Mr. Samnel D. Tillman,
Corresponding Secretory of tho American
Institute, New York, for copies of the
Transactions from 18G6 to 1870; and also
to OoL W. J. Lawton, at whose solicita
tion they were presented to the Society;
also to Gov. Geary, of Pennsylvania, for
valuable documents and reports connect
ed with Agricultural education in Penn
sylvania.
The thanks of the Society are also ten
dered to Mr. E. E. Brown, of Brown’s
Hotel, for a photograph of Governor
Troup, and for the autographs of Greeue,
Hancock, Washington, Madison and oth
er revolutionary worthies. To Honorable

W. T. Sherman has expressed his opinion
that Gen. Grant will not only bo renomi

singular that an incendiary, like Sher

language.
Bgk. One reason assigned by Grant for
pardoning Bowen was, “that ho did the
cause of tho Union good servico during
the war.” Tho chnrgo upon which
Bowen was arrested was, that lie has
been too much of a union man since tho

rather too heavy for the courts to get
around.

Caught a Murder.
Jim Toombs, a negro who was to have
been hung last Friday for tho murder of
a colored man, and who escaped from
Perry, Houston county joif, a few weeks
since, was arrested yesterday by Joe
Clark; the colored barber, and police
man Roberts. It seems the man worked
for Joe last year. Jco heard ho was in
Alabama, and went over there in an ex
press wagon. The negro very willingly
consented to take a ride to this side of
the river, when he was nabbed by po
liceman Roberts and lodged in the
guard house. We hear a reward of el,066
was offered by Bollock for hia apprehen
sion, but some say this was afterwards re
duced to $600.—Columbus Sun, 23.

Kennesaw House,
Marietta Go., July 25, 1871.
Editor Sun: Quite a large, at
tentive, and interesting audience as
sembled last evening to witness tho
exhibition Of tho Sophomore class.
We can furnish no more persuasive
verdict of the success of the young am
ateurs in reading than tho profound
attention of tho audience, and the
hearty applatiBo that greeted every
effort by the young ladies. Indeed
the behavior of the spectators was the
most polite of all the audiences we
have Been in some time, a conviction
which fonnd utterance in the person
of Mr. Rogers in his thanks to those
who had kindly attended the exor
cises.
There are eleven students in tho
Sophomore class, but on aocount of
timidity six of these were excused
from what they considered a sovere
ordeal. The following is a
PROGRAMME.
Miss Mary Thomas, Sumter county—
“Natural Justice.”
Miss Emma O. Baker, Ctobb oounty—
‘Coloseum. ”
Miss S. A. O’Neal, Oherokee oounty—
Paul on Mare HilL”
Miss O. B. Wallace, Cobb oounty—
Natural and Morel Worlds.”
Miss Lillie Wyly, Atlanta—“My Na
tive Southern Land.”
In criticising the reading of those
extracts we must remember that they
wero maiden efforts in two senses of
the word, a consideration calculated
to excuse any Bhort-comings, if, in
the opinion of tho audience there
were such, which wo are inclined to
doubt.
Miss Thomas has a very clear, mu
sical voice, which Natural Justice
demands should not be neglected.
Miss Bakor we thought rendered
tho Coloseum in a manner that en
titled her to the second rank among
the candidates for tho medal.
Miss O’Neal has naturally a fine
oice, and showed that she nad the
power if not the will to read.
But the most creditable reading of
tho evening was by Miss Wallace.
Her flill, clear, distinct articulation
penetrated to every port of tho room,
and elicited the closest attention.
We think wo saw the committee
wink; so do not be surprised if Miss
W., of Cobb county, receives the sil
ver medal
Tho last rending by Miss Wyly, of
Atlanta, was the only poem read dur
ing the evening. The patriotic senti
ments couched in “My Native South
ern Land," found expression ns much
in her face os her words, which wero
too indistinct to bo heard by the en
tire audience.
As a consolation to tho young con
testants for the medal, we will Btnte
on authority of one of the committee
that the prize lies lictwcen the first
five on the programme. Doubtless
one of them will bo the successful
competitor. In justice to the others,
wo will he lwld enough to say that
the Committee was composed of three
gentlemen whose tastes and partiali
ties vary as widely as their personal
appcuranco—which, of course, is im
peachable. One being a general, an
other a widower, and another a senti
mental young man, it will be a source
of great surprise if they ever rejiort
a unanimous verdict on the perform
ance.
Now the General of course was in
fluenced by the military air of one;
the widower was as much attracted by
tho marks of wealth in another, and
tho young man is prejudiced in favor
of tho pretty Miss who ? How
ever, the sentimental youth desires
its to state in justification of himself,
that if he did vote for the prettiest, ho
was biassed by nothing else thau the
admirable way in which she read
his heart! (Excuse him).
In seriousness though, we must
say, the Committee aro all rcliablo,
and you may depend upon it, will
pleaso the public.
Tho exercises in reading were in
terspersed with instrumental music
by Professor Schoollcr, on the piano,
and young Mr. Rogers, on the violin,
and vocul music by tho Misses Un
derwood of Rome. We were special
ly pleased with the performance of all.

examination op the sophomore
AND JUNIOB CLASSES.
The examinations were resumed
again this morning with exorcises
in spelling aud defining by tho Sopho
more class. They exhibit the closest
familiarity with the primary aud de
rivative meanings of all English words,
acquired from the most thorough
study of Latin,'Greek and Saxon pre
fixes.
A song by the school, with piano
accompaument, bespoke good train
ing in this department. The Junior
class have been thoroughly grounded
in the principles of inorgamo chem
istry. They manifest wonderful in
timacy with the composition, ele
ments and ingredients of all sub
stances, froiTi tho four ancient ele
ments to the most insignificant min
eral compound.
Tho Sophomore class in Rhetoric
and Latin sustained themselves equal
ly well, answering readily all ques
tions propounded in any department
of these specific studies.
The Junior who ure, more advanc
ed in Rhetoric, displayed a knowledge
of versification truly wonderful lor
girls of so tender an ago—such only
as could have been obtained through
the instruction of a very efficient
teacher, Mr. W. A. Rogers.
As a murk of their proficiency iu
musio, wo will state that a child of
apparently seven or eight years seem
ed perfectly at homo with the keys of
tho piano.
The classes arc yet to bo examined
in Algebra and Latin.
The Juniors read original compo
sitions this evening.
