Haralson counties were to have selected dele- i
gates, but action was postponed in both counties.
| year they received 6160, shipped 18.231 and had
stocks of 57,807.
The above totals show thnt the old interior
stocks hiv e decreased miring the week 17,62*
bales and are to-night 8J,lf>l bides more than ut
ihe same period lust year. The receipts at the
smite* town* have Ik-* n 7240 bales more than tlie
! same week ins; venr, and since September I the
1 receipts at all the towns are 690.026 hales more
than for the same time in 1884-5.
The exports for the week ending this evening
roach a total of 46,674 bale**, of which 35,374 were
to Great Britain 2885 to France and wifi to
the rest of the continent.
The Chronicle comments on its table of re
ceipts from plantations as follows .
The above statement show- 1. That the total
receipts from plantations since September 1, 1885,
are 5.306.181 baler*; in 1884-85 were 4,741,953 bales ;
ill 1883 81 were 4,760.680 oales.
2.—That, although the receipts at the outports
the past week were 22.700 bales, the actual move
ment from plantations was only 1086 bales, the
balance being taken from the ‘•tucks at the in
terior towns. Last year the receipts from the
plantations for the same week were 186 bales
and for 1884 they were 1780 bales.
In the table below we give the receipts from
plantations in another form, and add to them
the. net overland movement to May Land also
the takings by southern spinners to the same
date, so as to give substantially the amount of
cotton now in sight.

A RIVAL OF THE TELEPHONE.
RcmurknIde Discovery Made by Prof. Bell and
His Cousin.
Washington Special.
Prof. Alexander Graham Bell and his cousin.
Dr. Chichester Hell, have recently made a very
ru markable discovery, which they think is quite
as important us the transmission of the tones of
the human voice through the telephone. They
Have discovered that a falling jet ol' water or a
flame qf gas burning in a room reproduces every
word spoken and every sound uttered within a
given distance. When two people join in con
versation in a room in the evening, the gas
which burns above their heads repeats every
word they say, and sounds uttered iu the vicinity
of flowing water nroduces vibrations.
To a reporter ot a local paper Prof. Bell showed
a glass disk, upon which appeared a spiral streak
composed of tiny little shade lines, placed to
gether or father apart to make up the variation
of intensity. The surface was one of depression
and elevation. This, Prof. Bell said, represented
sound waves. When the plate was revolved
upon a pivot and the depression and elevations
conveyed to the ear by a microphone, there was
a repetition of the conversation there recorded
as distinct as when it was delivered. The undu
late Burtuoe representing sound waves was pro
duced by photography. Prof. Bell says that if
any one will go to a water-pipe and turn on the
faucet so that the water will fall in a stream to
the ground, that water can be made to report a
conversation taking place in its presence, and a
steam register every sound within hearing of it.
Prof. Bell considers this discovery unite as im
portant as that of the telephone, and his cousin.
Chichester Bell, has gone to Europe for the pur
pose of bringing it before scientific men iu Eng
land and on the continent. Patents have already
been obtained in all the principal countries of
both continents. The great object of the inven
tors was to record by photography or otherwise
the vibrations in the jet of water which corre
spond to sound waves; the result of words spoken
in the vicinity; to keep the voice on lecora, igit*
tied up as it were, for any length ot time; and
then, when called upon, to let the record speak.
This, Mr. Bell says, has been accomplished. The
water, or liquid of whatever kind
it may be, is colored with bi
chromate of potash. If it were perfectly
clear it would not answer, because the light used
in photographing would pass through without
resistance and no record would be made on the
tablet. The water is colored for photographing,
and the jet is made to fall obliquely on a gla ss
plate. The water spreads itself out on the glass
plate and suns oft*. It is the water so spread out
that is to be photographed as it passes. Words
spoken cause the jet of water to vibrate, the vi
brations in the jet cause corresponding vibrations
in the film of water as it breaks and spreads
on the glass plate and runs oft*. A ray or light
is passed through that film and through the
glass plate to a sensitive tablet behind. Tne sen
sitive tablet receives the impression of every
vibration while the speaking continues, the iet
keeps running, the film keeps passing over tne
plate, the recording tablet keens movintr aud the
light passing through the film to the tablet
makes a redord of the speech fer more accurate
than any verbatim report. 'These scientists do
not consider their invention perfect, but they are
at work improving it.
Death of Dr. IV. 0. Dubinin.
Montuomkr y, May 30.—Dr. W. O. Baldwin,
after several days' severe sickness, died of heart
disease at 8 o’c.ock this morning, surrounded by
his children, Drs. Weatherly, Michel. Gustor and
other friends. He was born August 9th. 1818, in
Montgomery county, four miles from here, while
Alabama was yet a territory. He read medicine
at sixteen, entered Transylvania University,
Lexington K v V.. received the degree of M. D. at
eighteen and has been practicing in Montgomery
since 1837, with immense success.
He was the author of many valu
able papers on medical science, some of
which became famous and were translated in
several languages. Dr. Baldwin wa«* honored
with the nipsidqncy.of the* American med cul as
sociation in 1868, assembled at Washington city.
During the many yearn he practiced medicine his
reputation as the foremost physician in Alabama,
like his practice, grew constantly, while ao one,
socially or intellectually, stood higher or achieved
greater success.
In 1870 he organized the Frbt National Bank of
Montgomery and became its p.esident, whi<ih
position he continually held and contributed
greatly to its established splendid reputation.
His wife died in 1878 and since then his heuilh
has gradually failed.

The *21 O’Clork System.
The 24 o’clock system is still attracting respect
ful attention and will it is thought eventually
come into practical use. At tlie recent {general
time convention Mr. H. Stanley Goodwin, gen
eral superintendent of the Lehigh Valley road,
introduced the subject and it was referred to a
committee consisting of Messrs. Charles Ncllson,
general superintendent Cincinnati; G. M. Beachf
general manager Cleveland, Columbus, Cincin
nati and ludinapolis; and H. S. Haines, general
manager Savannah, Florida ana West
ern. This committee was instructed
to report at the next meeting, to be
held in New York October 13. Meantime the
twenty-four hour plan will be in operation on
the Canadian Pacific and perhaps some other
railways, and its practical advantages, especially
on long lines, will be capable of demonstration.
The committee will doubtless give the subject
thorough and candid consideration and their re
port will be awaited with much interest.

OF
&c CO.
A Separate Verdict
FROM
Each Juror,
1— I find that it is a short
time before Gray will merit
I lie same trade lie enjoys in
Savannah and Augusta in es
tablishing the Cotumbus
branch.
2— I find Gray lias decided
advantage in being so long
acquainted with tire Georgia
trade.
3— I find Gray must con
sume a great quantity of Dry
Goods for all his stores; hence
the reason for his-low prices.
4— I find from boyhood
Gray’s name has always been
a household word for bargains
in Dry Goods.
5— f find all Goods so neat
ly kept and arranged that a
person can select any article
with ease and comfort.
6— I find one price their
strict rule, and politeness their
standard.
7— I find it is a pleasure for
Gray's clerks to show goods.
8— I find an agreeable sur
prise at the large assortment
of Dress Goods and the mod
est prices asked.
9— —I find Gray has the
widest and finest Table Linens
in Columbus.
10— I find Gray is head
quarters for Mourning Goods
and Black Silks: also that he
can show an elegant assorl-
ment of Parasols, and that his
White Goods department has,
choice bargains.
11— I find that Gray man
ages business as if by magic,
wilit grace -and ease, that is
far beyond the reach of imita
tion.
12— I find that Gray, by his
long experience, vim and
pluck, and low prices, has
altered the people's course
when wanting bargains, and
they all go to C. P. Gray A.'
Co.'s Trade Palace, opposite
Rankin House.
Opinion of the Judge,
verdict I find
of causing the
Upon thi
Gray guilty
whole city of Columbus being
thrown into a state of excite
ment by his large, new Spring
Stock and bankrupt prices,
producing a thunderbolt
among so-called competitors,
and smiles to purchasers.
Being recommended to the
mercy of the court by the
jury, I will reconsider and re
serve sentence until next
week. In the meantime the
Trade Palace will offer special
inducements in all depart
ments. All are invited to see
their last arrival of New
Goods.
