ATHENS STANDS BY THE UNIVER
SITY OF GEORGIA. ^
At a large and enthusiastic meeting of
citizen* held at the Court House last
night, eloquent addresses were delivered
by Chancellor Lipscomb .and President
Broun, in response to caffo, and the fol
lowing report was unanimously adopted:
The Committee appointed at the Citi
zen’s Meeting, held on Saturday the 4th
inst., respectfully present the following
^^Ultor a full and free discussion, we are
3 f the unanimous opinion that an appro
priation ought to be made by the Town
of Athens to the State University. We
recommend a donation of twenty-five
thousand dollars in bonds of the Town,
bearing a semi-annual interest of four
per cent., and having twenty years to
run, but redeemable any time after five
years from their date, at the option of
the authorities of the Town. To pay the
interest on these bonds, ami to accutnu
late a small sinking fund, annually, tor
their final redemption, will require a tax
of one eighth ot one percent, per annum.
If to this small percentage there he
added, three eighths ot one per cent, for
municipal purposes, and one half of one
percent to meet our Rail Road obliga
tions, the entire rate of Taxation will be
but one per cent, per annum—a small to
tal when compared with that of many
of the Towns and Cities ot our State.
In not a few of these, the rate of munici
pal taxation is from two to three per
cent. We therefore recommend a total
tnuncipal tax of one per cent, per annum,
for the above stated purposes, and in the
ratio above specified.
lB view ot the fixed policy of our
State that the different races be educated
in separate Institutions, in view also of
tho fact that the University has ever
j been, and still is, devoted to the educa
tion of the white race only, we unani
mously recommend that the aforesaid tax
ot one-eighth of one per cent for the ben
efit of the University be levied upon the
whites exslusively.
We offer, in conclusion the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved that the authorities of the
Town be requested to apply to the
Legislature, at its next meeting for the
passage of an empowering act to carry
into effect the recommendations pre
sented in this report.

Vprhees on Gleeley.—Voor-

reviewing Greeley’s record, before,
during, and since the war, he said in
conclusion:
Others might do as they please, but,
as for himself (Voorhees) and his
household, they would have none of
this worship. There was something
higher and sweeter than success. One
whom he held in the highest reverence

Athens Fire Co. No 1. (Hope), and the
Hook and Ladder Company held their
Annual Parade on Wednesday afternoon.
** nope " Engine, and Reel, and the Hook
and Ladder track were beautifully dec

appearance.
Pioneer Hook and Ladder No. 1, had
its Track and 5 ladders from 8 to 42
feet long, with 12 hooks, 6 axes, 2 pick
axes, 1 crow bar, I chain hook. 24'buckvts,
and 2 Babcock Fire Extinguishers. The
decorations were draped in mourning for
Charles M. Lumpkin.
After organizing at Firemen’s Hall, the
1 procession moved through the principal
streets, to Broad, in front of the Newton
House. From this point they made
SPLENDID TIME RUNS.
• The first ran, by the HookandLadder
'•was 200 yards, running up one ladder
and taking it down, and was made in 48
seconds. A slight accident prevented
the” Hope’’ from completing* the first
ran.
On the second ran, the Hook add Lad
der in front, “ Hope” followed, carried
their hose up the ladders, and played
1 two streams, each through 100 feet hose
at once, having on a fail stream, in 2
minutes and 5 seconds.
The whole display confirmed our citiz-
. ens in their just appreciation of our gal
lant fire department, and afforded con
vincing evidence—if any were needed—
that they deserve the facilities now al
most unhivcrsnlly adopted in towns of
the size of Athens. Of course we mean a

Hear The Blind Soldier.—
Mr-J. H. Woldridge, a blind soldier—
who'before he lost his eyes, in the nrmy,
was. a lawyer ot promise—will address
the citizens ofAthens to-night, at Deu
pree’s Hall. The subject of his address
will be: The Atmosphere—showing its
relations to the plants and animals ot
the globe; the Constitution of the Uni
verse ; the maintenance of the equilib
rium of tho Great Organic Forces of Na
ture; the constitution of the atmosphere
in present and pre-historic periods; the
Era ot coal formations; the necessity for
the introduction of Death, and its
supreme benificence ns an institution,
and the probable final destiny of the
human race.
Mr. Woldridge comes well endorsed as
a lecturer of exceeding interest, and has
been invited to deliver his lecture here
by Chancellor Lipscomb, Dr. Hull, Y. L.
G. Harris Esp, and numerous other citi
zens. Let him have a good audience.
Mr. Poland of Vermont has pro
posed an amendment to the Consti
tution, which we think will receive
the popular approval and ought to be
sanctioned by Congress. It provides
that no Senator or Representative
Congress shall during the time for
which he was elected be chosen Pres
ident or Vice President, nor shall any
justice of any United States Court be
chosen President or Vice President
within two years after the termination
of his judicial office.
National Agricultural Con
vention.—This important body meets
in the city of St. Louis, on the 27th
day of May. Mr. O. H. Jones, of
Atlanta, is one of the Vice-Presidents
of the convention. An interesting
session may be expected. This is
the great National Representative
Congress of those powerful and impor
tant people, the farmers, and its delib**
berations will be looked to with in

Dr. P. H. Mell.—The Atlanta
.Sun says: This distinguished Divine,
so long Vice Chancellor of the State Un
iversity, and for more than twenty years
President of the Sout hern Baptist Asso
ciation, is still in feeble health. The
natnre of his complaint will not permit
any co itinuons exercise of any of his in
tellectual faculties. We learn that he
has not been able to read a line of print
in over eight months. - Acting upon the
advice of his physicians, he has determ
ined to make, at a very early day, a
European tour, as the only means of re
storing his health.
The Courier Journal says a part

We told Charlie Willingham—the
Gambrinus of the Georgia Press Excur
sion—that if he did’nt quit calling for
lager bear at every station, we would be

The Great Canal.—A committee
of Georgians have just visited President
Grant, and presented the claims of (he
Great Western Canal to Congressional
favor. The President expressed great
TP™ 1 >n i interest in the project, and suggested
that a bill be presented, for action at
the next session of Congress.
Death of an Old Citizen.—
Mr. Harper C. Bryson, for fifty-two years
a citizen of Augusta, died at his resi
dence, in this city, yesterday, at the age
of seventy-one years. Mr. Bryson was
born in county Antrim, Ireland. He
was one of our best known and most
respected citizens. The announcement

Fire in the Mountains.—Some
of the mountain regions of Penn
sylvania and New Jeysey have been
the scene of destructive fires for the
pa st fortnight. Thousands of acres of
valuable timber and woodlands., have
been burned over. The country is
harrassed by drouth. A table in the
New York Commercial Advertiser
shows that the weather has been warm

1863. * ’
Who Owns the Children.—At

destruction in Central
Park is very great. The blasted cedars
stand, thick with their yellow and
rustling leaves among the living ver
dure, and present the only sign of de
cay ever seen in the park.
In Massachusetts the strawberries
have also suffered terribly, and it is
the judgment of some of the most ex
perienced horticulturists that nearly
one-half of the strawberry vines in New
England were killed by the severe
winter.

The Covington Enterprise learns
that several severe cases of meningitis
have occurred in that vicinity lately, in
Dr. T. W. Sims’ practice. “One, a negro
girl, was taken while in the field atlsliam
Weaver’s a few days since, and carried
home insensible. The Doctor being sent
for at once, found her neck and shonlders
as stiff as a board. Having used ail the
usual remedies for 24 hours, the patient
continued to grow worse until she was
almost in & state of collapse ; then as a
last resort, the Doctor applied a red hot
iron to the head and down the spine,
till the skin was well charred, and in ten
minutes the symptoms all passed off, and
she is now well, except the effects of
bum."
The Chronicle & Sentinel says :
tho certainty of the endorsement of the
bonds of the Port Royal Railway by the
Georgia Railroad has not injured much
the stock of the latter company. We
learn that 502 shares of the stock of the
Georgia Railroad were sold a lew days
ago at $102 per share. The stock will
command a higher price when the Port
Royal Railroad is finished.
