Ieb30-d2w An Auction Bazaar.—Next Thursday night, we u derstand, the ladies of the Sixth Baptist Sunday School are to have an “Auction Bazaar” in the build ing on Whitehall street, two doors below the carpet store of Messrs. Chamberlin, Boynton A Co. We are gratified to learn that our merchants are making them liberal donations in various articles cf merchandise, and that the generous ladies of the Sec ond Baptist Church have not only promised them numbers of handsome cakes, ice croam, etc., bat rendering every aaaistance possible for them to do in carrying out their commendable enterprise. The energy with which these “workers for the Mas ter” are prosecuting their plana, and the success tnat has characterized their every other undertaking to build up the most flourishing mission school in the city, we think undoubedly gives promise of disap pointment to none who go to their Bazaar expectiug to have a good time. The Mule. SarTovv K.cnpc or a Railroad Prraldcnt — A Despicable Animal. Tbo negro ond mule ore inseparable companion!!, and like) the Hiaermtban bow, •• l .elei, each witbool tbo other. Tbla bas always been the expressed opio ion of Colonel George W. Adair, wbo is now President of the Georgia Western JUilroed. This gentleman's well known relish of a practical joke is proverbial, ant he la never seemingly more happy than when relating some amusing incident in bis own inimitable style. On yesterday afternoon he paid a visit to where the convicts were at work on a section ol bis road, near the city; and while there, and seeing the long line of mule# and carts which were moving along, to and fro, without any one along to gntde them, he could not re frain from spinning a characteristic yarn about tb antics of a certaio mule. Several of the overseers and employees were standing around when he related how a man had taken refuge from the sun's perpen- dicnlsr rays under the shade of a spreading beech, and lay recumbent, enjoying the Stful breezes and the sombre frothiness of the country newspaper Along the dusty road which passed by this retreat came jog King a negro, mounted on a mule, both apparently fast asleep. Aa the somnolent pair approached the spot some wicked spirit of the place gave the paper a fort, which waa no sooner seen and heard than the mule M mules only know how, instantly “swapped ends." and leaving the negro sprawling in the dirt, took his de parture under full sail. The negro, half ralatag him self, and wiping the dnat from eyes and month, watched the retreating mule for aome time in sib-nce, hut at length, unconscious of au auditor, gavo ex pression to thiaphilosophical soliloquy— “Dat’a what makes me 'spiae a mule I" The Colocal had just finished and the crowd were enjoying the recital, and none more than the Colonel himself, when one of those sturdy animals, wiih a heavily loaded cart, came poking along the beaten path, all alone. The #r«t thing noticed by the crowd waa a forward movement of Colonel Adair, and a ■harp cry of pain. In an instant it was seen that the ponderous wheel of the cart had atrack the President » quartering blow from behind, which came near Mocking him down, which produced the cry Of pain He waa standing on the track unmindful of the ap- proach of the mule, who was equally aa unmindful ol the President; hence the collision. The animal never halted, bat pulled away as though nothing had hap pened. Had the blow prostrated him and the cart passed over his person, it would have resulted in the mow serious consequences. As it wss. he came to town complaining of having a good deal of tlu Preat- dsnttal “atlffneea" knocked out of him. and a aenaa- tloo on the opposite aids from where the wheel struck aa If hla “spleen" arrangements had been Interfered with. As the whole affair was a commingling of the grave with the ridiculous. It Is a debatable question whether to laugh or mourn. If, by ibis morning, the Prealdent should ha at his poet, »u right ; otherwise, he recital of this Incident will be property atoned for. Hoard of Trustees take into conalderation such prupo sais and determine In its discretion, upon the location of the Institute, at such place aa it deems proper. Resolved, 4. That firmly believing in the worthiness of our object, we do hereby pledge ail of our iuflu- individually and collectively to it* attainment, and we will allow no local preferences to offer any impediment to the early and successful reiaUbli.li- iuent of the Georgia Military Institute. Resolved, 5. That the Secret*!y of thia Convention Le required to send a copy of the*o resolutions to His Excellency, the Governor, with the request that he submit the same especially to the next General Assembly with such recommendation aa he may deem necessary to accomplish the end proposed. Resolved, 6. That this Convention do earnestly re commend it* members to enrol their name* aa mem, bers of the Association of Ex-Cadets and Officer* of the Georgia Military Institute, to which Association this Convention hereby transfers the guardianship of the interests of the Institute. Seits on the floor were tendered to Hon. E. W. Beck mf Griffin, Prof. Hoge of Alabama, the editors of the [city papers and visiting members ol the pres*. The usual resolutions of thank* to newspapers, rail road* and hotels were adapted. On motion of J. L. Brown, the President wo* al lowed till 4 o’clock to nominate the Provisional Board of Trustees. On motion of Captain Jno. Milledge. the Conven tion took a recess until 11:45 at which time it re-os sembles to heir Gov. Smith’s address. THE ASSOCIATION of ex-Cadets and officers w*9 then called to order by Captain Jno. Milledge, President. After some unimportant remarks relative to who were and who were n t members of the association, on motion, the President appointed a committee con sisting of J. P. Harris, W. E. H. Searcy, L. C. Ran dall, J. F. Crutchfield and J. E. Benton, to report names for officers of the association for the ensuing year. The association then took a recess to await the report of the committee. The committee returned on the reassembling of the Association, and reported the following names as can didates for offices for the ensuing year: President—Captain John Milledge, of AL’anta. Vice-Presidents—Milo 8. Freeman, Macon; J. W Robertson, Marietta; L. J. Hi]], Newnsn. Secretaries—J. B. Bridges, Atlanta; Charles PraU, Griffin. Treasurer—C. W. Henderson, Atlanta. On motion the report was received and unanimous ly adopted. Captain Milledge tendered the Association hik thanks for the honor conferred by his re-election; pledged himself to do all in his power for the promotion of the objects of the Association. His remarks were eloquent, to the point aud well re ceived. General Joseph E. Johnston, the only one of the im mortal trio left to us, would be a member of the Board of Trustees. Georgia was only behind Virginia in failing to have re-erected this Institute. General Johuson was will ing to do for Georgia at the Georgia Military Institute, what the immortal Lee had done for Virginia at Wash ington University, after the war. T. M. Elyra offered the following resolution: Resolved, That a committee be appointed for tbo purpose of obtaining a complete roster of aJl officers and ex-Cadets of the Georgia ^Military Institute, from its inception to its suspension, and that said reader be kept by the secretary of the Association. Resolved further, That every officer and ex-Cadet in every county tba\ bas been repres nted at the G. M. I., in every State, send names of jx Cadets to ihe secretary, to be placed on tbeir roster. Also that their residence, business aud if dead whether kills.1, and if so, where, or whether they died naturally. On motion of Colonel E. F. Lawson, Julius L. Brown, F. M. Elyea, John A. Fitten, E. P. Harvell and C. W. Henderson were appointed aa a resident committee to prepare a draft of Constitution and By-Laws for the Association aud report at the next meeting of the Association. The following is the committee appointed under Mr. Elyea’s resolutions: T M Elyes, E P Speer, H A Dnnwoody, W E H Eearcy, L H Compton. General L W Capers was afterwards added to the committee aa its chairman. The report of the retiring Treasurer was read and on motion adopted. On motion, the initiation fee was fixed at five dol lars. On motion, to allow the officers aud ex-cadets who are connected with the editorial fraternity were admit ted witheut payment of initiation. This motion was lo*t. Mr. Dunwoody then moved that all membsra of the press wbo belong to this association be relieved from the payment of initiation fees. Col. Robertson opposed the resolution. Thought no Cadet wanted to be placed on the list of benefi ciaries. Air. McWhorter offered an amendment exempting farmers, railroad men, doctors, etc., from Initiation fee*. Mr. Dnnwoody withdrew his resolution. A motion to reconsider the resolution Axing initia tion fee at five dollars waa lost. The following resolution was introduced by A. smith, Esq.: That a committee of five members of this Association bo appointed to prepare an addrsas to ibe Ex-Cadets and officers, and urge upon thorn the propriety and necessity of having their names enroll ed as members of this Association, and reqoestall papers in the State favorable to the cause to publish the same so that it will reach those now absent. The following is the committee: A. Smith, Mr. Randle, Jno. T. Cooper. Shorter and Prica. On motion the Association adjourned till 4 p. m. The Convention met at 13. u to hear the address of Governor Smith, President Harrison in the chair. On motion, a committee of three—General F. W. Caper*, Colonel Roberson and Gen. P. M. B. Young— was appointed to escort the Governor into the halt. On motion, persons in the galleries were invited to seats on the floor during the address. Taie committee appointed for that purpose escorted Governor J. M. flmitb into the hall. He was intioduced to the Convention by Colonel J. W. Robertson, as Ihe man whom the people of Geor gia recognize as the only successor of Cbaa. J. Jen kins—Gov. James B. Smith. The Governor delivered a characteristic short and sensible speech, lie said he had had but little time to prepare a speech, and consequently would detain the business of the Convention bat a tow minutes. He was heartily In favor of the re-establishment of the Georgia Military Institute. It had dons much for the H’ate in the past—he believed it would do more in the future. We hope to be ext rapt from future wars, but have no right to believe vo will always be so. We need some men among ns who have military educations, A military education fits a man for almost any avocation In civil life. Those who have received good military education#, make good lawyers, doctors, merchants, farmers, etc. He favored It mainly on the ground of the promotion of the great interests of education. The ignorant do not properly appreciate the importance of education. Those who have drank most deeply feel most deeply the need of more knowledge. Almost oae-half of the adult population of this Btate cannot rend and write. To do sway with this state of things, ws can't pay twenty dollars for the education of every boy every year. It would bankrupt the Blots in six moths. It must be done by fostering the higher Institutions of learning—moke them free aa air, if poaaibl*. Put • dozen educated men and women in a community, aLd they banish ignorance as the sun banishes derk- neas. The State ought to do this work—give $35,000. If that is not enough, give ell that is have been frittering away our means by working at the wrong end. The old poor school system was a poor thing indeed. The common school system cannot be up to a proper standard without a propvr fos tering of these higher in*titut.ou* of learning. He does not object to private citizens contributiug to this object. Some aay we are too poor. Thank God, knowledge is within the reach of the poor as well as the rich. Out of our poverty he wss willing to give aa mnch as may be necessary, and it would be like bread cast upon the waters. Some don’t like to edu cate soldiers. When a man knows he may have to fight, it 1* the part of wisdom to prepare for it. Be ready if the emergency comes. All knowledge does good. If education does nothing else, it expauds in dividual mlfids, and extends individual usefulness. The greatest Peace Congress in the world was held just before onr late war. A good sign of war is to bear everybody cry peace. Wants to whip when ho Agbts. Ho danger of a collision between this aud similar Institutions. Don't matter what Institution educates the people so the people are educated. The College of Agricultural and MecLauic Arts was established to teach specially those branches of learn ing which relate to the agricultural and mechanic sits, including mustering. Military tactics in the meaning of that act of Con gress did not mean a military education. We don’t want Congress or anybody else to confer this charity upon us. We want the State to establi h the Georgia Military Institute where our sons may be taught all that is necessary to the defense of tbeir homes. Must not hide behind what Congress has dooe for ns and say there is no need for us to act. Let Congress give as all they please, and then after we have done all we can much will remain undone. If you hurt the University it will only be an evidence that it ought to be hurt. Hot afraid of the Institute’s hurting the University. Hopes to live to see that the Georgia Military Institute has done as much good as the University. Wish we hod an institution of learning in every county in the State, and that they were as free a* air. Then we would have an educated people. An additional tax of two or three mills on each tax payer annually would soon build and endow half a dozen institutions of learning in the State. We weie too p«or to get along without institutions of learning. In conclusion, be hoped that the Institute wonld be in the future as in tbo past, an honor to the peo ple of the Stats. Gen. P. M. B. Y’oung in response to loud cslls, said he did not come here to make a speech; had a pro found contempt for politicians; waa twelve hundred miles from here when he learned that this Convention would meet. The greatest indignation ever put upon him waa b, a younger Cadet the other day, who said he did not graduate at the Georgia Military Institue. Sixteen graduated in hi* class—a'l were dead but four—he had never received any commission which he was so proud of as the diploma be received at the Georgia Military Institute. This Institute must and should be iebuilt. All through the General was very eloquent. AU our scores are not settled yet. Prussia never forgot the Injuries inflicted upon her by the first Napoleon. 8ixty-four years from that time a great general who was then but a Cadet, victorious Prussian’* into France and humiliated the proud eagles ot France. If the State refuses—and he had no idea she would—he would be one of fifty gentlemen who would subscribe three times the amount the State has bora asked for, for the immediate i e-establishment of the Georgia Mil itary Institute. The foUowing resolution was intro need by Col. J. W. Robertson, and adopted: Resolved, That this Convention sensibly appreciates its indebtedness to Uls Excellency, Gov. J. M. Smith, for the encouragement given by his forcible and elo quent remark* to this body, and that we hereby tender Gov. Smith our sincere thanks for the interest mani fested by him in the ebjccts of this Convention. The thanks of the Convention were tendered to Gen. P. M. B. Yeung, for his timely remarks; also to the President aud Secretaries of the Convention for the able discharge of their daties. * On motion, the Convention adjourned sine die. AFTERNOON SESSION. Puisuaut to adjournment the Association cf ex-Ca- dets and officers of the G. M. 1. met at 4 p. m. Capi. John Milledge, President, in the chair. Col. J. W. Robertson moved that Gen. George P. Harrison be added to tha Provisional Board of Trus tees. This motion prevailed, and Geu. Harrison re ported the following Provisional Board of Trustees of the Georgia Military Institute: From ex-Cadet Associa tion—CoL J. W. Robertson of Cobb, Gen. P. M. B. Y’oung of Bartow, Gen. Bobt. H. Anderson of Chath am, Col. John Milledge of Fulton, Col. E. F. Lawson of Burke, Col. Milo Freeman of Bibb C *1. John W. Robinson of Washington, Capt. L. J. IIill of Coweta. C*pb W. E. H. Searcy of Spalding, Gan. Geo. P. Harrison or Auburn, Alabama. From the Bute at large—Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, Hon. Joseph E, Brown, Hon. David Irwin, Hon. Joseph B. Cuniniing, Hon. W. A. Huff. On motion of Julius L. Brown, the nomination* wore confirmed by tbe Association. On motion of Colonel James W. Robertson, it was resolved that when tbi* Convention adjourn it adjourn to meet on the firat Wednesday in September, 1874, in Marietta, Ga. On motion of Julius L. Brown, the minutes of the morning’s session were read. A goodly number of the Association signified their intention of going to Marietta to-morrow. On motion, the question of fixing the initiation fee waa reconsidered, and the matter referred to the C. m- mittee on Constitution and By-Laws. On modon General Wm. Phillip* of Marietta was in vited to address the Association which lie did briefly and pleasantly. He gave a very interesting statement of fact* connected with the history of tbe Institute during the early years after the war. The turf from the grounds was taken to decorate the graves of tbe Federal dead. The tree3 were used and destroyed. It a a* proposed to appropriate the property and apply it to other uses. In order to save it a dozes leading citizens of Marietta organized and applied to the Senate and House of Representatives for the grounds for educational purposes. They secured it with the private understanding that when the Georgia Military Institute ceuld be rebuilt the property was to be redonated. Tbe Trustees of that Academy filed a deed to that property with Governor Smith, within a week alter his Inauguration, conveying the property to the State for ihe Institute. (Applause.) He made an eloquent appeal for the rebuilding of the Institute on the some old hill in Marietta. Marietta feels a mother’s love for the Institute and its Cadets. They are her children. A brighter page has yet to be written in Confederate history than that of Job Ruff. Comp lived and died a soldier and filled a soldier’s grave, according to General Lee’s statement; so of At kinson, Tucker, Patton and Johnson. The conclusion of this speech was greeted with loud applause. On moti< n, tbe Association adjourned to meet in Marietta on the first Wednesday in September, 1874. The Courts. THIS CASKS OF MALOVK AMD HOYT STILL UNDE CIDED—THREK PASTIES CONVICTED OF VIOLATING THE EX VENUE LAWS. DASHES HERE AMP THERE. The fines at the Recorder’s Court oh Monday amounted to in the neighborhood of three hundred dollars. The traveler*’ motto—“Quick- transit gloria wuadi.” That is "«c.” A Decatur street workman sold his little place for $900, and buried the money in the garden to keep it over night, and hunted ten days before finding it. During the Concord Baptist Association, at Owon- ton, Kentucky, last week, in the “State” meeting of “sweet” Owen, the Rev. G. C. 8. preached an impres- sivesermon, which deeply touched an old gentleman in the audience, doubtless a good political specimen of what Owen once was. On being told that the preacher had been once a “Yankee” general, be seemed won der-struck. At the close of the sermon he approached the preacher, and taking him by the hand, said “They tell me you were a ‘Yankee’ general in the Federal army?” “Yes,” waa the reply, “and I tried to do my duty.’’ “A Yankee! and converted?” "Yet.” “And a preacher ot the gonpel?” “Yes.” “Well, well,” said bo, “miracles will never cease.”—Exchange. Our youDg fellow townsman Howell Glenn, made a very beautiful speech at the Cherokee High School, situated near Trickum, eleven miles from Marietta, on last Friday week. Apropos of tbe preseufc discussion of “Cfesarism” is the following dtfinitiou of the original Julius: “Julius Ca’sailsm—an ancient Roman of celebrity. He adver tised to tbe effect that he bad rather be first at Rome than second in a email visage. II* waa a man of great muscular strength. Upon one occasion he threw au entire army across the Rubicon* A General named Pompey met him in what wss called the “tented field,’ but Pompey couldn’t hold a Romau can dle to Julius. Wa are assured upon the authority of Patrick Henry that ‘Ciesar had his Brutus.' The unbiased reader of history, however, will conclude that, on tbe contrary, Brutus rather had Csesar. Thus Brutus never struck me as an unpleasant man to meet, but he did Caesar. After addressing a few oral remarks to Brutus in the Latin language, Ca aar ex pired. His subsequent career ia without interest. Ca*sar was bald, which Grant ia not. and wore a laurel fly brash to conceal the billiard ball which he called head.” The teasou for drummers has opened. We counted eighteen Northern aud Western drummers at the breakfast table yesterday morning, and that was the first day of the season. Nice out of ten of them were liquor agent*. C-C'Cantbat p-p-p-parrot talk?” asked a stutter ing countryman of our friend Dan, yesterday, as be stood and listened some time at his pet perched in front of his cigar stand. “Yen be don’t talk so goo ter as you, by tain, I sebop his head off.” Do make yourselves at home, ladies,” said a lady one day to her visitors. “I am at home myself, and I wish you were.” A drunken fellow wandered into a Sunday-school and look a seat with tbe primer tcholara, when the teacher thus accosted him: Why, James, do you know what condition you in ?” “Yes, m’m—in the gall of bit'uesa and bond* of ’nqnity. Ask me some hard qnesh’us.” A barber, while cutting the hair of a rural customer, ran his scissors againat aome baid substance, which proved to be a whetstone. TLe old farmer said he "had missed that whetstone ever since haying-time last July, and looked all over a ten acre field for it, bnt now remembered tricking it up over his ear.” The burglar. Levy Shuford, who waa shot last Fri day night while attempting to rob the residence of Judge Trippe, has been carried to tbe county jail, where he lies in great pain from the wound. The Cadets were out yesterday in full uniform, and with tbeir banner. In addition to the drum, they marched to the shrill notes of the fife, fingered by Federal “flutist.” The city waa unusually lively yesterday, owiug to tho presence of a large number of visitors attracted hither by the meeting of the ex-Cadets. Some ecamp says when yon see a widow resume tight corsets, it is to show her admirers that she is so laced. There ia a purple half to the grape, a mellow half to the peach, a sunny half to the globe, a glass of " ’ar and ’arf ” at Carroll’s, and a better half to tbe man who is so fortunate as to have a good wife. Levi Souaniers, of this city, No. 17 Whitehall street, has boen appointed agent of tbe Red Star line of steamships, running between Philadelphia and Liver pool, or any part of Germany or Ireland. The public schools of the city opened on Monday. A countryman hauling a load of shucks with a yoke of oxen yesterday on Whitehall was so taken up with the sights he beheld on ev. ry aide, that he did not see a buggy aud horse standing in front of Towns end’s store and drove right into tbe buggy—one wheel ol which was smashed. Sharp thunder and lightning yesterday evening re sulted in no rain in the city, hut about one aud a hall miles from the car shed a Singer Machine Agent encountered a very heavy storm of wind and rain. Hia umbrella was ruined and himself and wagon del uged. There arc a great many women who can be seen working awaj like the deuce for the heathen children while their own always have a place open In their pan taloons ready for a spank. A Roaring Branch (Pa) woman has peeled over two hundred cords of bark this summer, beside* twice peeling tbe bark off her husband’s nose. S«p*wi This Court met at tea o'clock yesterday morning. Present—Chief Justice Warner, Judgea Trippe end MoOay. Considerable anxiety was evidenced on the part of the people in reference to the decisions in the Malone and Hoyt cases, and the court room waa filled with curious spectators who had conae in to hear them announced. Contrary, however, to their expectations the decision in both cases wm deferred until next Tuesday. Several felony caaea were before tbe Judges at the same time, end they desired far ther time to consider these.

Btcwsrt made am« rema ke ou water works. He commenced by stating that water works are absolutely necessary to Atlanta, m well a* for present protection as future prosperity; that never in a single Instance had water works been abandoned where once established. He gave the cost of the system in Rome which supplies the city, and which Is capable of sup- plying 10,000 inhabitants; and also the approximate cost cf their introduction here, m proposed, remark ing that, in his opinion, the estimate of the Commis, sioners is too low. Taking the Chattahoochee liver as the source, he places the probable cost at five or six hundred thousand dollars, including the distribution through the city. He said that eight mile* of eixteen inch pipe three fourths of an inch thick will coat $234,000. In reference to the system st Rome, which ia supplied from a large well, he stated that it wm self-sustaining, aud it pays the interest the bonds. He is anxious for an experiment to be made on the well tystem here, as it can be dono with a small cost. All* \Y lawless It- Market Chamber or Oommkbuk, Atlanta. Ga.. September 2. 1873.
