SCHOOL OF TECHNOLOGY.
Throughout the commencement the
workshop of this school was open for the
inspection of all interested in tnis depart
ment. This school was opened in connec
tion with the college in October, 1864. By
gifts from friends interested in industral
education, north and south, its facilities
for practice and instruction have rapidly
increased until at present it represents in
buildings and appliances an investment of
$10,000. So for this department lias met
with the most gratifying success. The
workshop is conducted as a regu
lar manufacturing establishment. Work
is done under the idea that it goes
into the market with other productions of
skilled labor, and must stand or fall by its
excellence and merit. Contracts are taken
for all classes of wood and iron work. Tlie

i ( lose Vote in Harris fount}-.
Our reports from both Harris and Meri
wether counties are rather meagre, but
show that Grimes has carried Harris,
while Meriwether is given to Harris.
Telegrams from Harris county say that
Crenshaw, the revenue officer for this dis
trict, and some of bis deputies canvassed
the county actively for Harris and used
every means to secure his election in the
primary. It was understood by Grimes'
friends that Harris was not a candidate
and they paid but little attention to the
e'ection, hence Harris’ friends were out in
force and came near carrying the county.
As the situation now stands Grimes will
carry the county by a small majority.

Hamilton, Ga., June 26.— In the pri- j
mary election held in this county to-day ;
Gordon and Grimes have no doubt carried
the day. The following precincts have ,
been heard from:
Gordon. Bacon. Grimes. Harris.

Cataula— 35 12 s ts

It is believed that the other precincts, of
which there are nine, will increase the
lead of both Gordon and Grimes. Gordon
carries the county beyond all doubt, but it
will be close between Grimes and Harris. |
FROM t'HIPI.EV.
Chipley, June 26. -The indications are
that Gordon ami Grimes have carried this
county. Ten districts heard from give
Grimes a majority of 51 votes, and the
ether districts will increase this majority.
Davidson's district gave Grimes a majority
but we did not learn the vote. Tlie other
three districts will give him a majority.
