This subject lm* been discussed
with u^miuiit earnest nous bv the
press and public for the List few days.
This is gratifying to us, and to no
cause are we more w illing to lend a
helping band and willing influence,
than I lie advancement of our ow n
U nivursity. Tho w riter of this has re
ceived many favors and some distinc
tions from this time-honored institu
tion, and with a deep feeling of grat
itude are commingled emotions, pride
and reverence, and a desire for her
prosperity. We are also intimate
with every member of the Universi
ty, Faculty and students; and for the
last three and it half years have had
'lie very best opportunity for observ
ing her situation in every respect, and
for acquainting ourselves with her
internal organization and future pros
pects nnd'-r her present system. It
is upon these consideration - and this
information that we offer a few re
marks for the consideration of Iter
Alumni. Aud that every one mat
projierly appreciate this app.-a! in be
half of the University of Georgia, we
will propound a few questions and
discuss them in turn,
1st. Does the University deserve your
gratitude and commendation and tin
public patronage?
2d. KlinH site havt llti* eoinmenda
tion and support?
3d. a tow shall she receive them ?
To all those who have been famil
iar witlt the recent efforts and success
uf tho University, the first question
is superfluous. Alumni of many
years standing, and who have attained
marked distinction in the world,all at
tribute their early success to the influ
ence of their aimer mater; it was she
who introduced them to the world
with her fondest blessing, after years
of discipline to prepare them for the
contest. They have been successful,
and we feel assured there is no luck of
gratitude.
The younger graduates, besides feel
ing the deepest interest in the Uni
versity, in consideration of her nur
turing care and instruction, are well
satisfied that no institution in the
land is more d serving of patronage
and sn|>|xirl at present, whatever may
have been her auspices in former
wars. Her faculty is facile pr bleeps
among American institutions. In
point of reputation, her professors
are among tile very first rank in
America, ami in point of tulcnt, abil
ity and accomplishments, we know
them to be unsurpassed. They are
the elect of throe or four of the
Southern States, and have lung sus
tained themselves as the very first au
thority in science, art and literature.
These statements, which no one is
prepared to deny, are sufficient to
justify us as ah association of alumni
to recommend it to the patronage of
the public fur and w ide.
She needs this support and must
have it. There have been serious in
roads made upon her prosperity with
in the last few years, because of the
want of a liberal endowment and the
iiidividuil efforts of persons to ad
vance the interests of dcnominutiomi!
colleges, bite ha.- been compelled to
exact unusual tuition fl u in the ab
sence of proper and otherwise neces
sary annuities, In the corrupt con
dition of the lA-gi.dat tire for several
| years past, the Mate Treasury has
been impoverished and tin.’ Universi
ty's interest sadly neglected. We
have no positive assiirauus that this
nogUrt will liot contitine. Then all
support must originate with the
Alumui, and however wealthy and
huvvgypr illustrious vpu may be, your
wealth and your iiithe nee ran he of
little avail kkrtivietan <J- The lust re

It is probable that in a few days a
call will be made looking to the per
manent organization of the .State
University Alumni of Atlanta. Un
til then let them confer with each
other and discuss the most advisable
policy for promoting the University’s
iutercst and thus reflecting lustre on
their own names.

The proceedings, iu the curly part
of the day, at the Park, were some
what interrupted by the rain, which
set iu as early as nine o’clock. How
ever, a lull train had gone out before
that time, and as there was plenty of
shelter no very great inconvenience
was experienced by the company.—
1'he time was agreeably spent in vari
ous ways. We did not get out until
three in the afternoon, just before the
' HACKS OPENED.
On this train some three hundred
people went. The first attraction
noticed after taking in the beautiful
prospect from the top of the hill,
and inhaling tbs pure, fresh country
breeze which was so refreshing and so
pure there, was a knot of men and
boys, white and black, just in front of
tbv grand stand and the truck. After
getting near enough to discover what
was going on, we noticed a brace of
little negroes stripped for a
WREST LINO MATCH.
Tne excitement ran high a the lit
tle fellows hugged and cinched,
| “ look the hack lock,” “ underholt,”
reeled and at lust came to the gnu nd.
Several dollars were lost and won by
the hackers of each boy, and the win
ning parties immediately turned over
the pot to the successful champion.—
The sport was keenly relished by all
present. Then one or two foot races
wound up their part of the fun.
The next on hand was.
A FOOT RACE
between two square built, athletic
white men. whose names and pedi
grees we failed to obtain. At tho
drop of the lint they went. It could
scarcely be called a race, for from the
first step it was evident the shortest
man would win. The other gave in
in less than half the distance. An
other foot race terminated similarly
to the first.
Then the
HORSES WERE BROUGHT OCT.
The first wus a running match be
tween two colts. After some trouble
and a good deul of false starting they
got off. The colts ran well, hut need
a great deal of training yet. The
bay mare beat the sorrel horse easily.
Perhaps the best racing was be
tween an old gray horse and a bob
tailed bay mare. It was pretty close.
The best three in five. Considerable
money changed hands on this race.—
lietting rati high, and some excite
ment manifested as the first one and
then the other passed each other. But
decidedly the richest entertainment
of the day was the City Marshal’s
race with as old black cow. The
Marshal has a very good looking
sorrel horse, with some bottom, but it
was put to the test, lie gave a gra
tuitous show between tho heats of
the regular race by entering his horse,
sulky and self, “letting him loose.”
It,mini and round he went till it
made our head swim watching him.
No one ventured to enter against the
foaming sorrel und he had it all to
himself. As he was making his last
mill, a game old black cow who had
been quietly browsing on the edge of
the track, hoisted her tail just us the
Marshal was approaching and took
some ten steps the start. As soon as
the crowd saw this, they set up a yell,
which only intensified the interest of
the cow und spurred the sorrel to his
level best On they went, the cow
holding her own remarkably well. It
was intensely exciting. The Marshal
urged the noble steed, who, with
bowed nick and dilated nostrils,
seemed intent upon rtiuning over the
presumptuous Imist who had dared
to enter the rao • against his
build. But it uus no use. in vain
did Marshal ply the whip. Two to
one on the cow found uo takers. Ten
to ono was a drag, until the first
quarter was reached, when the cow
gracefully turned iu, liaviug won the
heat by the applause of all present.
The crowd in attendance was soci
able, jolly and wcdl-behaved. Nodts-

Mr. B. K. Thrower, followed the pre

Mr. A, C. Briscoe’s rendering of
“Eulogy on Lee,” so far as intuna-

country from impending ruin. Uis
eulogy ou down-trodden Ireland
brought tears to the eyes of many a
native of the “Emerald Isle,” and his
invective against the unparalleled
usurpations of our own country,
caused many cheeks to mantle with
indignation at the atrocious indigni
ties of the fanatic hyenas of our peo
ple's liberties.

TEN DOLLARS AND COST.
Reply of I'oliccniau Henry
Wooiliim.
Editors of the Sum: Iu your is
sue of to-day I notice nu article head
ed “An Outrage,” and signed “Ten
and Costs,” in reference to one <i. 1-'.
Thompson, who was arrested ou the
17th day of June, charged with the
offense uf being drunk and using pro
fane language; und I consider that a
personal allusion wus made to ntyself,
from the fact that the w riter used the
following language:
“In the meantime he again was ta
ken by a policeman, and confined,
and on the following morning told
the keeper that if lie would call
on a prominent merchant, on Mari
etta .Street, he would find that his
check was correct, und tlut he was
fully able topnvall theeitUsdemands
against him.
’quest
his gallant mid extra
tticicut gent would not allow this,
and forced this poor, inoffensive man
off with a gang of fellows t<» work,
4c.”
In justification of myself, I t
you to publish this statement;
The said Thompson w as arrested,
under the above stated charge, and
confined in the calaboose. He hail in
his possession a check on some one in
New York for fitly dollars; and a
soon as he was sober enough to tak
care of himself, the Marshal, Maj.
Toni Williams, released him, retain
ing his cheek as security for his ap
pearance before the Mayor, on the
following Monday; hut before the
time of his trial he was re-arrested
and brought hack to the calaboose
“beastly drunk;" and in consequence
of there being one charge already en
tered against him. I did nut make any
case for the second offense; hut kept
him until the next morning, when lie
was carried before the Mayor, plead
guilty, and was titled “ten dollars and
cost” He then said, “if any oni
would call on Mr. H. S. Kendrick, on
Mariettu Street, that he would settle
the fine, as he was a cousin of his.”
Mr. Ilolciinibi’, the oftiucr who ar
rested him, called on Mr. Kendrick
and stated the case to hint, aud Mr
Kendrick replied “that Thompson
was a distant relative of his. and that
his father was a very excellent gen
tleman; (pit.that lie (<«. F. Thomp
son) had thrown himself away by
drinking.” Mr. Kendrick examined
the check, and said “that it may or
may not he good, Iml that lie would
not endorse it” Mr. Holcombe then
insisted on his coming down to see
Thompson, bnt lie refused, and asked
Mr. Holcombe to bring Thompson
up to the store; Imt before Mr. Hol
combe got back to the calaboose, 1
had sent Thompson to the streets to
work, us I did not know him to lie
any better than any of the rest of the
prisoners who were at work ; and lie-
sides, it is my duty to send those who
can't pay their flues to work.
In a very short time after I sent
him out Mr. Kendrick called at the
calaboose aud handed me a note from
the Mayor, stating that the fine of
Mr. Thompson would be remitted up
on his |>uyiiig the cost., and promising
to go immediately home. Mr. Ken
drick requested me to send him up to
the store, and as soon as Mr. Hol
combe returned from dinner 1 asked
him to ride down and get Thompson
and take him up to Mr. Kendrick’s
and he would pay the cost, lie did
so and the man wus released. If Mr.
Kendrick had culled at the calaboose
before the man had been sent out to
work, or had I known that he would
have settled the fine, 1 ocrtainly would
not huvoseut him out, hut 1 did not
know this until afterwards. If the
writer of tho article in your paper
was informed that I refit sod to allow
him (Thompson) to cull on M\ Ken
drick his information was false; but
if on the other hand bespeaks what
he knows himself, or pretends to
know, I will say that he stated a pos
itive fulsehiNsl. What Mr.Thompson
said alwiut calling on M r. K - idrick
was not said to me ; and the first 1
knew of Mr. Kendrick knowing any
thing about the man was when he
called at the calaboose. Mr. JIol-
sombe informed me of w hat ptsod
between him and Mr. Kendrick.A
