The preceding telegram received
j by a certain Junior shows the ini
pression produced all over the State
by the ridiculous reports appearing
under astonishing headlines in the
Journal, Constitution, Athens I Lin
j uer, Augusta, Macon and Savannah
! papers.
The Journal says, “The devil
turned loose in Georgia,” hardly ex-
prescca thv excitement i> Athens at
present.
The Macon Telegraph comes out
with the asl niish iig statement that
“The hoys at the University are
wilder this year than they have
been since the war," and so on, ad
iiau seu ill.
F.xpostulation seems useless. The
j friend*)'?) of tile University con
nected with the press have con-
j trusted a habit of looking at every

a Link telescope. We may at any
i time expect an extra Journal an.

a cylinder of chalk at Kent," the
article accompanied by pictures
or the combatants and a kinclo-
l scope representation of Haskell
throwing the missiles, while the re
maiiiing space is devoted to descrip
tions of the terrible anxiety of the
citizens of Athens.
The Mower Langley affair of ”.*3
appeared iu every prominent paper
in the country! The ruocui diffi
culty in Gilleland’s was copifd not
only iu every Georgia paper, hut in
the New York papers us well, and
the dispute over the .Shropshire
medal has become familiarly known
in Texas a* the Bciinct-Wcddington
affair.
