Library Association.—The Directors of the Young Men’s Library Association met on Friday night. Twenty new members were added to the Association.

Mad dox, of this city, has been elected Principal of Fletch er Institute, of Thomaaville, by the Board of Trustees. Of Mr. Scott we can say that he is eminently fit for the position in every way, and the Board could not have elected a better man and nicer gentleman for the hon orable position. Mr. Scott is a gentleman of culture, and we predict a bright future tor Fletcher Institute under his management. cipal dispensary Two barbers, from a Marietta street shaving saloon, named Valentine and Boyce, were about to try the edges of their razors on each other’s throats on ac count of some misunderstanding arising in tbe course of business. Valentine choked a little of Boyce’s rich blood from his jugular, when that individual went for a rock, and was about to smash the Valentine. The police hovered near, and calmly towed them to deep water. Ten, each. John Patterson took on his load and “ fetched up” against the side of a newly painted hous9 on Nelson street. Shoving himself clear by a vigorous effort, be took a glimpse at hts shoulder, another at the house, a third at his hand, and exclaimed, “Well, that's a care less trick in whoever painted that house to leave it standing out all night for people to run against,” went off with an alarming symptom of hydrophobia. The Court was sure John was tight, and patted him on the shoulder to the tune of $10. J. W. Mansion, supposed to betheorgioal “mansion in the skies.” filled his upper story with twist-eye. and the whole magnificent fabric crumbled to tbe earth and was piled away by the police, the expenses on which amounted to ten dollars and something. The Court then gave a lucid homily on the evils of ntemperance, and closed the services by singing, in L. P. metre, the following dirge to “fools,” (Joosen singing alto, Dr. Barry the bass, and Parker, Holland, Wooding, Jones and Dan Shehane the tenor.) It was “lined ” out: Of all the poor fools who inhabit the earth— Fools by misfortune, or fools from their birth ; Rich fools and poor fools, and great fools and small— The man who gets drunk is the greatest of all. The spendthrift who revels in siotous living. In spending, or losing, iu lending, or giving. Is foolish enough; but he has not yet sunk To ihe level of him who is constantly drunk. The miser, eternally starving and > laving. For what he is earning, or stealing, or saving. May be reckoned a fool; but HE is not quite So foolish as he who will get on a “tigut.” The man who will wager, and dicker and lie On the toss of a cent, or the cast of a die, You would think as foolish as foolish could be, But the drunkard Is even more foolish than ne. Investments in “wildcat” are mostly a curse. But investments in whisky are something still worse: For stocks do not always their favors refuse, But whisky investments are certain to lose. And so I’m convinced of the truth of my text. That of all tbe poor fouls, for this world and the next, The rich or the poor, the great or the small, ' The man who gets drunk is the greatest of all. Dr Logau was called to the Chair, aud J M. Patton requested to act as Secretary. On motion, Tbe charter granted to the Association by the Supe rior Court of Fulton county was accepted.

How long he has been in that particular locality, and how he managed to keep himself so secluded, study for the historian.

Its quality, wo know, is superior, aud being nicely perfumed we are not surprised that conaumers prefer it, and that i* has a large sale. *ugl-evwed3m “The Mission of the Redeemer.”—We have r ceived a notice that the la lies who are conducting the achool of the “Mission of the Redeemer,” purpose giving a supper on Tuesday evening next, at the R.

Mr. Tilton has had large expe. rience in sampling of grain of ail kinds, and particu larly of wheat, and knowing the difficulties that mil lers generally experience in obtaining the services of experienced and reliable persons to furnish them with their supplies, has induced him to this course. He relies upon the assistance of those interested to sus tain and further the object, and will bny wheat and all kinds of grain for miners, and it will be to their interest to intrust their orders to his care. His terms are cseb, and he win not bny upon any other. Send yonr orders in advance of your wants. He does no t propose to buy wheat to speculate upon, neither will he keep a stock on hand. Address, W. C. Tilton, Dal. ton, Ga. The meeting of the Pomological Society yesterday morning was well attended, and was perhaps the most interesting that has been held since the organization. The exhibition of fruit was fine, and the discussion upon it highly interesting. The following gentlemen were proposed for membership and were duly and unanimously elected: Col. George N. Lester, Col. Mark Johnson, A. W. Hammond, E. E. Itawsou, Dr. W. F. Westmoreland, Thos. W. Candler, E. Van Goitsnoven and W. A. Haynes. Mr. W. P. Patilio offered a resolution which was adopted, to the effect that no initiation fee be charged boys between the ages of twelve aud eighteen years, in order to encourage them to join and take an inter est in the subject of fruit growing. The following names were then suggested, and the appli cants elected members: Masters John C. Lass, Orzne Campbell, J. P. Marshal. John 8. Holliday, W. O. Jones, Jesse Morton and Charles .Tannings. The committee appointed at the last meeting to investi gate and report the best selections or variety of fruit for propagation in this section and climate and asked further time snd on motion were .granted un til the first meeting in October next to submit theit apprehensions in regard to the approach of the cater pillar.

An agreement has been entered into by those gentlemen for a regular time schedule by which freights from New York and all other Eastern cities will, without accident, be received at Atlanta iu seven days from and after tbe date of shipment, the arrange ment to continue throughout the coming business sea son. This is s grest improvement on old aod other existing schedules, and will no doubt secure a large patronage to the companies interested. The freight cars, we learn, are to run through lrom Norfolk to Atlanta without breaking bnlk, which, with increased •peed, secures the desired saving of time. In order to avail themselves of the advantages of this line, mei> chsnts shipping from New York are advised to ctll on C. E.

A very agreeable and .entertaining incident of the meeting was the recital by Master Edgar Wallace, a ! youth aged about thirteen or fourtien and a son Of President Wallaco, a list of the pears grown by his father in this city. The son very gracefully placed to his sire’s credit eighty-three varieties. A resolution wss adopted authorizing and instructing the President to appoint five delegates from the So ciety and five alternates to the American Pomelogical Society which meets in Boston early in September next. It is expected that the railroads will pees dele gates for one fare., The names will be announced in a few days as soon as they are appointed. Col. T. C. Howard made some highly appropriate re marks in reference to the benefits to be derived from attendance on the meetings of the Society hers. exhibition of fruit. The following members contributed to the table, which was literally crowded with the different varie ties of fruit: President J. R. Wallace, a large variety of peers and several varieties of grapes. Mr. Wallace is peculiarly at home in describing bis fruit, especially pears. He does not stop at a description of the quality, appearance and flavor, but can give the effect j of it on tbe system.

His recitations were simple yet touching, comprising such selections as “Bingen on the Rhine;” “Yankee in Love;” “Shauias O'Brien,” Ac.; yet their rendering showed the power of the Professor and his mastery of the art. The students of the Coliege listened with rapt attention, and showed their appreciation by their applause. These exercises or those of a similar char acter are not unfrequeut at tbe Eastman College, and possess much merit, as they serve to give relaxation to students whose minds have been intent during the ! week on business, and the example might be profita- | bly followed by “busness meu” in the “business i world.” W« understand Professcr Scott will soon I give another entertainment at the College for the bene- | tit of the students aud their friends.
