are about to form a co operative union.—
A cooper-ative union would be better.
“Through tickets to go round the

they are through tickets why aro they to

**TU Tho Richmond Enquirer says
“they are to have a ‘bridge of sighs’ in
Lexington;" but it neglects tossy wbat
size.
B&. The Courier-Jouriud despises the
word “Bourbon." The only way in
which it can stomach it is, with a little
sngor, flavored with miut and “long
drawn out", through a straw.
g@U The Bichmond Enquirer has a
column article on “The Desirableness of
being Hanged.” Perhaps the writer
thinks he is likely to know bow it is him
self, and wants to put a favorable phase
upon it before the 'time comes “to feel
the halter draws.”
Kh- Deferring to Mr. Stephens, the
Louisville Courier-Journal says: “We
thought it was his custom to crush his
foes to a jelly with a club as large os a tel
egraph pole.” Not at all. Large clubs
for powerful foes; but for tho Courier-
Journal a very small twig.
g®, H. W. Onion, of North Carolina,
rather got the grin on Senator Pool, of
the same State, when, while giving in
his testimony, he said: “But yon and I
had better not talk about politics, as
both of us were electors for Jefferson
Davis in the canvass of 18G2.”
S&~ The Harrisburg, Pennsylvania,
State Journcl says: “It is very evident
that Ben. Butler is preparing to make
trouble in Massachusetts, by which the
Bepublican party will suffer.” Well, if
the Bepublican party suffers through
Butler's stealing propensities, it has this
consolation—what Butler Bteals from it,
it stole before.
JKrF'The telegraph announces the death
of Miss Phebe Carey, one of the very
sweetest of American poets. About a
year ago her sister Alice died. Theso
two ladies were remarkablo for their va
ried and sprightly talents. Both wrote
vivacious and frequently sparkling prose;
but as poets they chiefly excelled. They
seem to have been twinned in genius.
The bent of their minds was not dissim
ilar. Either wrote what might have been
attributed to tho other. Phebe perhaps
ovinccd n little more playfulness; though
both inclined somewhat in that direction.
Both were very populur and esteemed no
less in the social walks of life than upon
tho highway of literature. Those who
lamented the death of Alice, one year
ago, will now as earnestly lament the
death of Phebe. Both appear to have
died too young, ns neithor lived to the
ago of fifty. Alice was born in 1822, and
Phebe a few years later.

Editors Sun: We have neither time
nor space to tell yon of the minor details
of Commencement; how the diurnal and
nocturnal caravans bear ou lightning's
wiDgs (?), cargos of love and beauty
that rival in splendor Cleopatra’s shining
rctiuue; how they return freighted only
with tho dust of earth, and ghosts of
lovers stalking about in the bewildered
moonlight; how the dust, rivaling the des
ert simoon, risds in cloud-like grandeur,
and settling on the benighted multitudes,
crown them with a halo chrysalis of mud;
how the people come and come; how tho
young and gay, and melancholy and
love-sick and sentimental, continuo to
come; and how even the moon and stars
are waning and paliug in the vain effort
to furnish enough of their precious light
to mtisfy the yearning, sickening hearts
of thousands of victims of the tender
passion; how friendship and hospitality
and love, ah! exalted love, (which means
silly sentimentalism,) thrives and flour
ishes despito the dcsolato surroundings;
how the hotels aro alive and swarming
with guests to the tone of teii in a room;
how the ladies, in their. discomfiture,
yearn and pray for a look ing-glass and
standing room;
Dow they slug, and play, and walk,
And pray, and watch, and talk;
how many of thorn say, in the words
of tho immortal Conor, commenting on
their conquests, “ Feni, 1 uf«. Ftcf;” end
how the wholo audience “do wish the
orators would not speak so loud and in
terrupt them in their conversation.” All
these we have no room for, and leave
them for the fancy of tbo reader to pio-
turc.
THE ALUMNI
met this morning at 9 o'clock, in the
University lecture room, to discuss the
most expedient way of assisting in the
onward progress of the University. The
morning was consumed in debating the
privileges of Alumni—who were Alumni,
who were to bo invited to tho Alumni
banquet, and in electing honorary mem-
berm. They adjourned at 11 o'clock, and
repaired to the Chapel in the order of
their rl——, from 1800 to 1870, to hear
the address, or more properly, tho un
called for tirade of
HON, n. n. BILL,
which has greatly marred the harmony of
the Commencement proceedings.
In this address we regret to say that he
dragged in which should more
properly have been discussed elsewhere.
He “went back” upon the people of
Georgia and the South, and upon his
own past teachings and professed prinoi
pics. It bore tho appearance of being
intended by him and others who agree
with him politically, to purposely prosti
tute the high and sacred position of Alum-
ni Orator of the State University, to the
propagation of their partisan political
views. It was wholly unsuited to the oo-
ossion, in bad taste, indecorous and out
of order, and will not reflect any credit
upon him or tlioso who agree with him
politically.
We forbear to give a synopsis of the ad
dress. We supposo it will be published at
length, when yon can put it entire in
your columns, if you think proper, with
such common Is us it may deserve.
After the address, a proposition mado
by Gov. Brown, that a committee of sev
eral he appointed to memorialize and in
person address the next Legislature to
make uu endowment of $500,000 upon
tho University.
TUB ORATION
by Mr. E. G. Simmons, of Macon, on
occasion of the Anal celebration of the
Demosthcnian Society, this evening at
9 o’clock, was pronounced by many to
be among the best delivered in many
years. It abounded in boantifnl, gener
ous, noblo sentiments, which found the
most happy and eloquent delivery in this
rising young orator.
His theme, “National Recollections,”
chimed iu with the sentiments of every
heart, which, though envenomed with
the direful Lotus flower, had onoe felt
the divine love and enthusiastic reverence
for his fatherlan^
Mr. Simmons^ddress to his fellow-
members of tho Demostenian Society
was a model of propriety. The touching
pathoe of his voice and manner and the
thrilling tenor of his eloquence rivited
the profound attention of an audience
who seem to think tho highest preroga
tive of human genius is to talk xchilt the
speaker speaks.
Immediately after, Mr. J. A. Barclay
arose, and in a few appropriate words de
livered to Mr. Gray, of Adaimville, a gold
boring man into his parlor, to bis ta
ble, into his l>ed-chamber, into his
church pews, and send lus children
to be educated at the same school.
Tho menial race of this country,
which iu all countries have been de
nied these privileges, were negro
slaves, who were a distinct W '
medal, as the best debater of the Sopho
more class; to Mr. 0. E. Harman, of At
lanta, a gold medal os tho best debater of
the Junior class, and to Mr. John L.
Hardeman, of Macon, a gold medal as
the best debater in tho Demosthenion
Society.
TUB ALUMNI BANQUET
commenced at 8 o'clock in tbo evening
and continued until ono o’clock at night.
The sumptuous feast of viands and deli
cacies and tile thousand luxuries of the
table were magnificent; but tho intellec
tual feast afforded by tho wit and wisdom
of tiro hundred of the most distinguished
men of Georgia and the South was grand
in comparison. The sparkling of efler-
vesceut madcira and glittering cham
pagne was drowned by the lightning
flash of wit from such men os Gov. Brown,
B. H. Hill, Gov. Jenkius, Mark A. Coop
er, Dr. Tucker, Dr. Bledsoe, N. J. Ham
mond, R. P. Trippo, Judge Vasou and
scores of others, whose toasts to tho Fac
ulty and Trustees, the University, the
Alumni, the students, the honored de
ceased Alumui, the Colleges in the land,
and their country, were delivered with
such seriousness, such humor, such ec
centricity, such feeling, such enthusiasm
and such overpowering eloquence, os the
cose might be, that the applause mado
tho vast building tremble under its de
monstration. We hope to give a further
account of this.

rior race, upon whom God, in Ilis
wisdom and mercy, had indelibly
stamped the badge of inferiority.
All that Mr. Hill says in favor of
labor—educated labor—is fully ap
proved ; not only that it is best for
our race morally, physically and in
tellectually, and for the progress of
our country, but tliut our situation
makes it a necessity. But we should
not allow a glaring misrepresentation
of the past progress and development,
and their causes, to go unconnected.
It is true, iu fact, that tho property
holders of the South were not the
laboring class, for the Bimple reason
that a large part of their property
was labor, which served to relievo
them from the necessity of actual
toil The system,. Mr. Hill now
thanks God is abolished, was so prop
iierous, brought so much ease and
leisure, so much domestic peace and
comfort, so much time for intellectual
and moral culture, that wo were not
only farther removed from the hard
ships and burthens of life, but had
reached a higher degree of cultiva
tion, refinement, moral elevation, and
intellectual power, in the aggregate,
than any people on earth.
Mr. llill seems to measure the pros
perity of the Southern peoplo and
their happiness in the past by the
rule of immigration and the intro
duction of foreigners and new breeds,

this rule every part of tho
States has been more prosperous aud
happy than the people of the South.
But this is not tho true rule when
applied to a historic period, and to a
people.
Take the'ancestors of the North
and South, and aggregate their in
crease, their wealth ana their intelli
gence, and comfort, and it will bo
found that ours have more actual de
scendants, who have lived better, had
more comforts, and'enjoyed more of
the blessings life, and have in tho main
attained a higher moral and intellectu
al standard. The negro slaves of tho
South increased more than the native
Yankees, and enjoyed better food, shel
ter and raiment than the laboring clas
ses among them. Under the system de
fended by Mr. Hill until now, the
people of the South wore in great part
exempt from labor, and by the use of
labor which they owned as capital,
They will not suffer by waiting.

Hon. B. II. Hill on White Labor.
This distinguished Georgian lias
sprung a new mine in his fruitful and
creative brain, and ventilated its ar
dours with its gems over a body of
cultivated gentlemen convened for
literary purposes and social joy ut the
University of Georgia; and sought
through the alliances of that time-
honored Institution to give circula
tion as well as dignity to his depart
ures from the tenets of his past life.
I shall not discuss the extraordina
ry proceeding in so far as it violates
approved usage and shocks refined
taste,—although these enter largely
into the demerit of the thing when
we consider that so largo a number of
the rising intellects of the country
are to be affected by the models se
lected for them upon such an occasion.
I will concede to Mr, Hill the right
to offend and disgust the Alumni of
his Alma Mater, and the large collec
tion of the educated ladies and gentle
men of his native Stale; and for the
purposes of this article only enter a
protest against his right to falsify the
history of my country—a liberty.
If correctly reported in the Era of
to-day, he said:
Moreover, wo ignored the claims nf “
del classed. Wo kept the raecheutc it
tween ourwWta ana the slave, end refused to assim
ilate or associate with him. Labor wm looked down
upon aa ignoble,mercenary and debMing,aud hence
the breve *u<l intelligent mechanic* of other sections,
when asked to aharo with na hi* fortunea aud hi*
Ubor*, proudly answered, “ No, air; I am not a a!ava,
thank you.”
Whatever purposes of Mr. llill may
be answered by this statement, in bis
rapid passage from the proud position
of author of “Notes ou the Situation”
aud the vindicator of Southern hon
or, and the motives of Southern peo
ple, to tiie embrace and lellowship of
those against whoso detractions and
sianders lie so nobly defended us,
when examined us matter of fact. The
mildest term that can be applied it is,
that it is not true; ana it is pre
suming too much in favor of the ig
norance of the great orator, to say
that he did not know it was unfoun
ded. -
It must have been known to him
from the day of his youth to the end
of the late struggle, that there was
not a country on the globe where
tho white citizen, mechanic and la
borer, were so nearly assimilated to
aud associated with the owners of
property, as in tho Southern States;
and whore there were fewer
barriers to social, intellec
tual and religious intercourse.—
That nd man in the South ever be
came so rich or aristocratic that he
would not invite a mechanic or a la-
tlicy produced the exportable wealth
of the United States. Geokgiah.

GEORGIA NEWS.
Through a gentleman who rosidos in
Washington county, says tho Milledge-
villo Recorder, we learn the opinion in
that section is prevalent that tho party
which took James Oxford from the Mil
ledgeville jail were not his friends, as is
generally supposed, bnt were a band of
citizens whom Oxford had threatened to
expose for somo acts that wofild in
volve them in serious difficulties. The
opinion there seems to bo that Oxford
was “lost;” and for reasons that need not
he mentioned, wo aro inclined to the samo
belief. It is also reported that Oxford's
hat was found noor the Oconeo bridge the
next day, which of itself is a suspicions
circumstance. Several of the prominent
citizens of Washington oounty seem to
bo confident that Oxford was lynched by
the party that took him from jail, not
withstanding the report that he baa since
been seen in the vicinity of Augusta.
The Bainbridgo Argus says: Onr far
mers are now engaged in pulling and sav
ing fodder, and the weather could not be
more favorable for this bnEinoss. Corn
turns out to be mnch better than was an
ticipated a few weeks ago, althongk this
remark applies entirely to upland. The
corn and other crops on all onr lands sub
ject to overflows aro generally destroyed.
Cotton is constantly improving, and the
farmers’ hopes are reviving in regard to
this crop; notwithstanding, the quantity
of cotton that, without farther injury or
draw back, will bo realized, necessarily
will fall far short of an average yield.—
Itain is greatly needed in many localities.
The Monroe Advertiser of the 1st says:
Among the entries at the Fair on Satur
day Inst, we notice several were mado by
colored men. Stnrdy-armed Ab. Watts
carried off the prize offered for the best
sweep, and honorablo mention was made
of other specimens of his blacksmithing
for which no premium bad been offered
Dan Taylor, also, it will bo seen, was
rnecial premium for a coop of
ducks exhibited. “Uncle Dan” made
several other entries that attracted atten
tion, and others entered tbo list os com
petitors for growing tobacco, corn and
melons. Tbo spirit that animated all
these contestants is commendable, and
its growtli should be encouraged.
Some of the particulars of tho fatal af
fray that occurred in tho npper portion
of Butts county, says tho Monroe Adver
tiser of the 1st, on the night of the 22d,
havo reached us. Two negroes, named
Price and Sima, on their way home from
church, had a dispute over a previous
3 morel between their wives. Price was
rank at tho time, and mado an attempt
several times to cut bis opponent, and
finally, having procured a gun, attempted
to shoot him. Sims, after making every
effort to avoid a collision, seized a small
chestnut pole, and knocked the ruffian
senseless. He died from the effects of
the blow on Monday evening. Sims, who
is reported to be an unexceptional negro,
surrendered himself to the authorities at
once, and after an examination, was dis
charged from custody—it having boon
clearly established that he acted in sclf-
dofenso.
Eleven wliito and forty black couples
matrimonialized in Savannah during tho
month of July.
The Savannah Morning Neics of the
1st says: Collector Robb returned to his
arduous duties at the Custom House on
Sunday night, clothed with full powers
to do just ns he pleases with the small fry
who flutter and sputter around the mag
nate of the granite building. Having
shown himself equal to the emergency,
the worthy servant of his honest leaders
at Washington, he is now authorized to
discharge any ono of those around him
who does not follow out the programme
marked out by him. So to begin, he
took off Mr. J. T. Wilbur's heed yester
day morning. Mr. Wilbnr was Custom
House Inspector, • very efficient and
agreeable gentleman, aa far as known to
the public. Capt. Hunt has been rein
stated as Boarding Officer. Other chang
es may be looked for, bnt aa it is a mat
ter of small importance to our citizens
who occupies places, cither as chisf cook,
bottle-washer or otherwise, none bnt the
