STOCKIWLWfJlSl MEETING
r
Campbell Wallace Elected ^res-
dnnM‘ VAat. *
Y» st rtlay atlO.o'clock the meeting of
the stockholder'of the ’Georgia Western
Road took place at the City Hall. Pfleai-
Jent Petera was in tjip chair, with Mr.
Secretary Orme ou his left
The object of the meetibg, as per .ad
vertisement, was tlie election of Presi
dent and Directors for the ensuing year.
Messr* Adair, Harden and Ormond
were appointed a committee to examine
proxies and report as to their legality.—
The committee from the City Council of
Atlanta retired with the committee on
proxies, who soon reamed and reported
their authority to cast the city vote an
:>rreci The number of shares repre
sented by individuals w as 164. The num
ber by the city, 8,00Q.
A motion was made to go into the elec
tion of officers, which was carried, and
die Chair-appointed O. H. Jones, R. J.
Lowry and J. A. Hayden tellers of the
election. The vote for President was to
t»e separate from that for Directors.
While preimrafcions were being made
for the balloting several gentlemen pres-
ut made suggestiyns, Heretofore the
old Board coi.sidt <1 of President and but
six directors. Anac't of the Legislature
empowered the stookliolders to increase
the number of Directors to ten. It
was argued that-the meeting elect ten
Directors, and the committee adjourned
ro an ante-room for the pufpose of soun-
ling the stock represented as to their
choice. Judge Hammond stated that be
was authorized to withdraw Mr. Raw-
son’s name for President.
The Chair stated that the charter onh
permitted those to be Directors who
owned stock in the road for the space of
ninety d tvs previous t-o the election.
Mr. Cussiu moved to adjourn until two
o’clock. Lost.
An intermission of fifteen minutes was
given to allow the committee time to in
vestigate. At the expiration of the time
the committee was announced as ready
to begin the balloting* The following
was the remit:
For President —Campbell Wallace.
Fhr UtoxtorA—Jblui P. Kia*. John
Collier. E. Y f . Clarke, A. W. Mitchell,
A. M. Speights, J. H. James, F. P. Rice,
C. P. Cussiu, Thomas Alexander, C. W.
Wells.
Thfetfe was a scattering vote of ten
shares for directors given, but the gentle
man who cast it, at the solicitation ol
the convention, withdrew it, and cast it
for the above ticket, thus making it a
unanimous thing.
The polls wcfi»_then declared closed,
and the above imlmd gentlemen duly
elected for the ensuing year.
As Mr. Peters Ws’’.announcing this
fact, Col. Glenn corrected him l>y saying
that the nPwly electe^ President and
Board were only iu offtee till the 24th ot
July, ensuing, and oiling the rules and
by-laws to sustoin^iis point. The by
laws say that ihg/annual meeting shall
take plaefe 24th of July, each year,
at wdncjl-^oue a President and Board of
Directors shall be elected for the ensuing
year. Col Glenn contended that this
meeting, in the point of law, was only
for the purpose of electing officers to
serve until the next regular annual meet
ing,which is on the-44th iust. The
oliaif i loinoided with Obi Glenn, when
Mr. Caeshi, who hud been elected one of
the DireQtdrSj opeurd upon Mr. Peters
one bf the most sudden and bitter casti
gations we ever heard in a quiet rotating.
His suspicions were mountain high, and
he gave vent to his pent up passions iu
language plain and severe. He accused
Mr, PfetM *f m*kinfc • Bio*! egregious
mistake in calling tlm Meeting. He in
timated in plain language that that gen-
tIonian knew whal lie was doing when he
advertised the meeting for the 5th of,
July. Tlmfc a trwk was to be hatched
out of this day’s proceeding, which he,
as a representative of the city, would not
stand. If Mr. Egiggi had made this er
ror unwittingly, h.^aifcd upon bun to
Correct it iustaater. lit he made it wil
fully, lie still calleddponmin to correct
His insinuations ns to motives of the
Chair were anything but complimentary.
Mr. Peter-*, iu great surprise and aston
ishment at this ipidden outburst from
^Ir. CaiBig,j*fo{eytpd made a statement
-to the effect that lie had xxmmdted legal
gentlemen ou this point, and was guided
in his actions as President, by their Opin
ions. He was no less astonished by Mr.
Casein’* remarks titan the entire audience
holders, while voting, supposed the elec
tron to be for the ensuing year, and seve
ral so stated. Mr. Peters uq doubt thought
n6 ; for, as we 4tMVd above, be expressed
surprise, and was in the act of congratu
lating the„ pew offi^ere upon their elec
tion, and *e ecjnpiny upon its selec
tions, when Colonel Glenn m&de tl e
point he did as to their term of office,
quoting by-laws of the Company to
sustain him.
Judge EzzariL wus called upon, and
sustained Colofiel ftlenn^s views. Neith
er ware dny*aHiffievl with the officers elect ;
A or SMiyfee eft* apfea t to be. The
case was in a ora&dle because of Mr.
Grtsin’a sibling that M Peters had
.,om»- ulterior design* u • • ;» their (th«:
Col. Adair was of tlie opinion thfit the
oitoxn phMop wew tor th« sowing year.
He wanted tlis thing settled^ and oallad
upon the legal Uleut present to assist
’hem nut of the l:ffieutty. They were
. J an f he wanted
Mh fivhrt nothing in u«» hot
the building of the railroad—had no axe
he desired such steps taken as would
settle tty fitytyhaf been so un
expectedly sprung.
}«lgr EwsadatU’l CoL Glenn gave their
ujbhe* ok tWV'f* "“P*! W
sense. Unless the by-law* were changed
ao as to give the Stockholders the privi
lege of sleeting annual officers at any
other time than that already prescribed,
the election would lie noil and void; nod
the by laws eouhl only be changed by the
Directors—not by the Stookholdeie.
Consequently, as no election was held at
the last regular day for that purpose, tbs
present election was for offloen to fill the
imexpindytnr, the President having the
power to eeU snob election.
It is (rue, ss Mr. Casein said, that nei
ther Mr. Peters nor the old Board had
ever resigned, and of ooune there was
no vacancy to fill, and that the oompany
then had two sets of offiers.
A disposition wss manifested by all
parties to settle the matter. No one was
objecting to the offloen elect, but the
idea that the thing had not been done
aooording to law was the stumbling block.
Occasionally a little man in s high place
would attempt to stir up the flame, but
failed miserably.
A motion to adjonrn was carried,
amidat some oonfusion.
The question now is, who are the offi
cers and for what length of time do they
serve? The old Board do not claim nor
want the position. They have given way
to the new, and the new olaim that they
are in office for twelve months and nine
teen days, while it is the opinion of some
legal minds that they will aerwe only
nineteen days, unless re-eleoted on the
24th, the regular annual election day for
officeib.
A very good way however to settle the
question is, for the Stockholders not to
hold any meeting on the 24tli and let the
new Board hold over onto July 1872,
This they oan do if they chose, as was
done last year. 1
The Organization Complete—
The Rond to be Built.
The official call by Campliell Wal
lace, the President, for a meeting of
the new Board of Directors of the
Georgia Western Railroad, to be held
at the banking house of John H.
James this morning, will be found
elsewhere in Thu Sum.
We learn that Maj. Wallace leaves
for Alabama this evening. We are
also rejoiced to learn—just what we
expected—that Maj. Wallace will at
once go to work to build the road,
lie will iu a short time return, bring
ing his family with him anl reside in
Atlanta, and the great work will be
commenced very soon.
.Maj. Wallace says he will pnt forth
all his energy and press the work with
all the ability he has orcan command
till the road is built.
Maj. Wallace's reputation as a rail
road man is equalled by very few in
America. His name is a tower of
strength, and he will receive the cor
dial support of our people.
The contest for the Presidency was
a sharp one, but it is specially pleas
ant to note the patriotic action of the
aspirants and their friends, when the
hour for action came. Mr. Rawson,
becoming satisfied that the best in
terests of the oitv would lx; subserved
by Maj. Wallace's election, magnani
mously and with the spirit of a true
man, declined, and urged his friends
to vote for Maj. Wallace.
Since it is all over, all parties are
satisfied. All classes delighted. Those
who are disappointed—whose favorite
was not chosen—are rejoiced that the
great trust is confided to so able a
man, in whose integrity of purpose
and unfaltering determination to
build the road, everybody has the
fullest confidence.
In the prospect of building the
road, we rejoice and congratulate the
people of Atlanta and the country at
large.

DROWN Sit IN A WKI.L..
Ou 'tatadty night a ball was given by
the oolorod people, in honor of the visit
of their Chattanooga friends. The buil
ding was an oM frame house on White
hall Bisect, near the aaluboose. In the
rear of this building is au obi shed, with
ground floor, which was formerly used by
fee government ss a blacksmith shop. In
tha father aide of the shed from the ball
room wm ea old well, about six feet
square at the top, containing twelve feet
of water. There wm no ourbiog around
the well at all—not even a plank in the
way. The water ia within a few feet of
the top. About 12 o'olock Tuesday
night, a negro named George Manning
and a girt named Harriet Juhnaon, were
passing along under this shed, when
both stepped into the well. As they
want down, George gave several yells,
whioh attracted the notioe of those in
the ball-room, who ran to the well, and
by great exertions, got him out, not
however, until he was nearly dead. In
about three hoars, he became oonsoious,
and able to speak, when he told thorn
that Harriet Johnson was in the well.
The startled orowd hastened back, sud
under the direction of Polioeman Garri
son, commenced grappling for her body.
By taking a long pole and fueling for her
the man twisted a hold upon her dress,
and raised her to the surface of the wa
ter, when a rope was tied around her
body and brought her to the top. Of
course she was dead, having lieeu iu the
water over three hours. This occurrence
broke up the ball, and the lamentatious
of the poor heart-brok 'n mother were
painful to hear. Wlio the property he
longs to, and who is re-p nubble is a
mooted question, bom. negroes were
“fishing" all day yesterday upon the sup
position that other bodies might tie in
there.
Staadard School Bunk* for the Rduflurn
People.
The question as to what school hooks
should be placed in the huu<ls of our
children, is an important one. They
should not only have geuuine merit a*
such, but should < on' iiu no contaminat
ing ideas—should not teach our children
anything erroneous in point of facts.
For instance: We do not waut auy
school books whioh will teach our chil
dren that the Pilgrim Fathers were any
better thuu the (V'alicrM; or that the
Mayflower colony w<«s composed of better
people, who behaved belter, or are now,
more entitled to our reverence ami wor
shipful adoration, than those of Ogle
thorpe or Lord Baltimore.
Neither do we want any school liisto
ries or other books for our children,
which teach that the Southern people
were or are traitors, rebels, or violators of
the Constitution, or which will, in any
way, oonvey the idea that tho people of
the North are, in any respect, better than
the people of the South,
In this connection, we invite attention
to the advertisement of John I*. Morton
A Co., of Louiuville, which appears in
The Sun, this morning. We are assured
that their publications are not only free
from this objection, but that they do not
err in the other direction ; and are in
every respect, free from e verything sec
tional or sectarian ; and that iu point of
real merit, they are equal to auy school
books in America.
We call attention also, to the fact, that
this is the only Southern House engaged
in publishing school book*. It is a strong,
well established and reliable firm—well
worthy of the patronage of our people.
We also call attention to the fact that
Mr. Israel Putnam, formerly of Griffin,
whom well known to almost everybody
in Georgia, is the very Efficient and relia
ble agent of this house.

from the same country—Africa. Allen
is one of th^ waiters' at the Kimball
House, where he has grown so fat and
“sassy” that it was difficult for a brother
waiter to pass him without a row. He
amused himself on the Fourth of July
by trying the thickness of a Kimball
House tumbler on Sam Kennedy's fore
head. Ham came in with head plastered
up in strips, and looked like he had been
trepaned for the blind staggers. The
Court thought Jones had done Sam tan
dollars worth of devilment
HENBY HILLTEB
was a Dutchman, and was up for public
indecency. He proved a Fourth of July
complaint and was let off. (A little far

him, but was not proved. He got off.

MISS FRANCES CLAYTON
is n game little yaller Georgia nigger and
is not ashamed of it. Frances went to
the bull ou Tut sdRy night given in honor
of the visiting negroes, but was met at
the door by a very ungullant big buck
Tennessee negro, who informed Fanny
that that ball was not intended for
Georgia but Tennessoe ladies, and there
fore she could not come in. Thia infor
mation got Fanine's rich Southern blood
to circulating like a village soandal, and
she promptly told the door keeper that
Georgia niggers were as good as Tennes
see niggers. The door-keeper told her if
she didn’t leave he would kiok her into
the middle of next week, when Fannie
stepped out of the door and remarked
“you h. d better try it, you g-^ d—n
black ape.” For thia and nothing more
poor Fannie was locked up, and the
black Tennessee apo permitted to enjoy
the feast. Fannie thought it was mighty
hard. The Judge thought so too, and
let her off with a nominal fine of $6 aud
costs.

MOBNINQ BXKIU-’UES.
Tha examination of the pupils of tt e
Rev. B. A. Bonnbcim was held yesterjuy
morning at Cmoordia nail. Tlio exer
cises were highly satisfactory to all pres
ent. It was exceedingly interesting to
witnem the proficiency of boys and girls
from eight to fourtecu years of ago in
three languages, viz: the English, Ger
man and Hebrew. An the pupils are for
the most part children of Israelites who
are also Germans, they may be said to
cultivate three languages from infancy.
Iu every respect the examination was
highly oreditable to the pupils aud to
their preoeptor, the Rev. Mr. Bounhuim,
who, though quite a young man, has s
flno reputation for scholarship in this
community. He has wou tho affection
of the congregation of Israelites to which
be ministers, aud the respect of all who
know him.
EVENING EXERCISES.
The evening exhibition by the studeuts
of Mr. Bonnheim's school, consisting of
reoitation in English and German, dia
logues and charades, was oue of the most
pleasing performances we ever witnessed.
If there was an iudividnal iu ths audi
ence that entertaiued a prejudice against

she came (Miss Emma M.) followed by
her retinue, and in a queenly manner

(Master James Menkn), with his milita

for the edification of tho court. (Schil
