Fire.—About four o’clock yesterday

siderable tumbling out of tranks was
going on, and other excitement usually

ment exercises of the Atlanta Medical
College. Bis son, Itufus, is attending
lectures, and baa tbe reputation with the
faculty, of being one of the most promis
ing youths in the College. “Bose” never
t-ems to remember tbgt he has grand
children, but retaius all tbe vivaoity and
v gor of his youthful days, which is, be
yond doubt, tbe true philosophy of lon
gevity. We hope bis days ore not yet
half numbered.
Accident oo tUa State Road.
We learu that a aerioua accident oc
curred to • young man by the name oi
Joeiah Delk—s train hand on the West
ern and Atlantic R-tilroArt— last Monday.
The accident occurred near Graysville.
It seems that Mr. Dt-lk attempted to
jump on b >ard the care, mistaking a
freight box for the cab car. He fell,
was run over, seriously crashing his foot
and breaking his leg. The unfortunate
young man was bronght to his friends at
Marietta in the d>wn passenger train
sleeping cor, where it is hoped that the
kind attention of friends and good
nursing will soon “bring him round.”
No blame is attached to any one, save
himself.
Accident on the atnlc Kallruad.
About 12 o’clock Monday night as the
up night passenger train was careerirg
rapidly over the track, bearing its
precious freight oi living souls, an acci
dent occurred, wuicb, strange to say,
injured oo one on board. The scene
was near Rogers Station, above Carters-
villa. A freight train in advance of the
passenger ran off the track. Immedi
ately they sent out a runner to warn the
swiftly approaching passenger car, but
too late to avert the impending result
The passenger engine ran in o the rear
car of the freight train, but fortunately
caused no damage save a slight injury to
the enpine. At last accounts the road
was clear and trains running as usual.

O, it was piercing oold yesterday ! The
pavements were one sheet of iosr and the
wind blew a perfect gale. The Reoordt r
was on hand, notwithstanding the sever
ity of the weather.
The first case called was that of Hen
rietta Winn. Xhe very mention of her
name caused an involuntary shiver to
run throngh the audienoe, and the Oourt
looked frigidly at Jonsen, for calling il
out However, old man Sommers hap
pened to oome in about that time to at
tend on a case of one of his countrymen
who eouldn’t speak English, and as soon
as the croad saw him a subdued ejacula
tion burst oat, “now is the wiuter of
oar disoontent made glorious by this
Sommer's sou of Germany.” The
frosen looks and iey smile of the Oourt
then gav«v.way before the genial fioe of
Sommers. From the testimony it ap
peared that Henrietta had agreed to do
a day's washing for a lady, lor which she
had been paid. But Henrietta swore
the lady owed her twenty-five cents on
tbe old score, and taking the law in her
own bands she went on the wings of the
Winn on a collecting tour. Of course
the lady refus< d to acceed to her de
mands, whereupon the Winn blew harder
than ever and swore she would have her
money or disarrange somebody’s internal
orgstism. Tbe Coart let her off with
one dollar and costs, and proposed a
little pieoe of advice to all parties; but
four women were too much for one man,
and the Court couldn't get in a word
edgjwise. This so completely disgusted
him that he dismissed the whole crowu.
The Winn still blew snob a gale in his
presence that he was forced to send her
below and lock her up for contempt.
Henry Wade was called, but his attor
ney proved it a mistaken case, and Jon
sen was ordered to Wade into the next
man.
This was John Woife, whose
case was continued over from the
dAj before. Hi was accused of driving
on tbe sidewalk. Wolfe could not speak
English, and Lis cose was conducted by
proxy—a countryman of his—-who suc
ceeded in getting John out of tho law
with only five dollars and costj flue.
William Rogers was ja drayman who
had been carrying on tbut business some
time without license. He was driving
for another party, and the Court thought
the other party ought to pay a fine of
five dollars and costs, which he felt or m-
pelled to levy against William.
Another case against the same party
for not having his number on his dray
was dismissed.
George Butler, for running his dray
without haviDg a number on it. It hap
pened that the number of his dray for
last year corresponded with his number
on the City Clerk’s book foi the present
year, which little lottery luck g't Lim
off free.
Caleb Long—Lucy's brother—was up
for running a dray without number.
Ho had loug since conclu led it was all
right, and instead of putting his num
ber ou the vehicle he earned it in his
pocket. He paid costs.
N. Brown was down witli the same ep
idemic. He had bis number on an old
dray and had neglected to attach it to
his new one. Ho called oi jonsen to
testify to his general good character
whioh eased him down with costa.
Fred Ferguson was running hit dray
without license or number. The Court
saw at a glauce that Fred uus the biggest
rascal of the whole 'ot. Ho asked him
where his number was, and the darkey
said it was attached to the coupling pole.
The Court then drew a comic picture of
himself, in case ho wanted to get the
number, of getting on bis all-fours and
orawling under the wagon, looking for
it. The.very idea so euraged him that
he fined Fred ten dollars and costs.
Peter Thomas was draying for auother
party, whos- duty it was to look after li
cense and number, and the Cjurt, po
litely sent bis compliments to that gen
tleman, and fiued him five dollars and
COSiS.
By this time the fire in tho stove had
gone out. Aldeipian Mtcatdio, who «ai
ou hand, put on his hat to keep his head
warm. The Court said: “Jonseo, trhat
ia it that makes the weather so cold ?”
Jonsen,os usual, thought that Me efficient
and proximate hypothesis of the recent
abnormally frigid condition of tho ter
restrial atmosphere was unquestionably
attributable to numerous corresponding
co-ordiuate climatic coovuUions of innu
merable isotherm .1 liu.s ludiatiug from
the adar atmosphere at right angles wi.h
the plane of the Arctic circle uud con
verging at fixed points upou the cartn s
surface. Thu Court thought that must
be the cose, aud getting up to leave,

JUSTICE COURTS.
Those far-famed tribunals, and dernier
re torit of ye local, had an exceedingly
quiet lime on yesterday. Justice Mon
day had no news of importance to com
municate, and woa just wishing for some
body to come in and enliven him with a
yaru, like unto that which a certain
sapient Judge reoently related to him in
tne presence of this repot ter. It was too
cold, however to be civil, aud we bid tbe
Justice a summary good-bye.
Justice Butte had nothing to do but
parch goobers. We crocked a few with
him, aud believe that his knowledge of
cookiug goobers is only equaled by hia
familiarity of tbe law. Edo peryctua.
Justice Hammond is the only man who
hod any fun yesterday. Tbe Juatice ia
an exceedingly dignified old gentlemen,
but iu Spite of thst assumed frown, we
kuew he enjoyed the labored efforts ol
tbe skili'al and intelligent counsel en
gaged iu tuat bastardy ease heard before
him. This waa a pane prefi rred by Mias
Heurioita Gilpin apaiust Mr. George
Lackey, , bulging him with being the

heard by Missrs. 'J homes Fiuley and
£ E Iley word lot the prosecution, and
Col. Albert Thrasher tor the defense, the
Ju Ige decided to biud over the defend
ant in a bond of two bundled and fifty
dollars on hi* ro usal to give bond to

n largo Lumber of ladies and gentlemen,
together vith the Faculty and students
of tho Allant* Modiixl College, assem
bled in the Representatives’ Chamber at
the Capitol to confer tho degrees on the
graduating c'*sa. The Rev. E. W. War
ren opened the exercises with an eloquont
and fitting pmyer, after which the band
played a lively tone. 1 he class oonsisted
ot fourteen graduates, on whom the de
grees were first conferred, and tan
ad eundam graduates, or thou who hod
received diplomu from other colleges.
For the best thesis on the praetioe of
medicine, e priae of a ease of poet mor
tem surgical instruments wu awarded
by Prof. A. W. Qriggi to Dr. Cbarlea W.
Hill, of this oity.
Fcr tho best thesis on improvements
in snrgery in tbe lut twenty years, a
priae ol an opthaimoscope wu awarded
by Prof. W. F. Westmoreland to Dr.
J. A. Beasley, of West Point
For the best thesis on remedies, e
priae of a medicine cue wu ewsrded by
Prof. J. G. Westmoreland to Dr. L. O.
McBride, of Wubington oonnty, Gs.
The degrees were conferred by CoL
Mitchell, of Athens, one of the Boerd of
Trustees, in an essy an elegant style.
The valedictory address on behalf of
the class, wu delivered by Dr. John
Hogan, of HogsnsviUe, Geirgia. It
wu remarked by an eminent phy
sician who wu present, thst this
address wu one of the best he ever heard.
It wu delivered in an easy, grooeful and
pleaaant style, aud wu remarkable for
ono of bis yean—he being abont 24.
The valcdlotory on behalf of the
Faculty wu delivered by I rof. V. H.
Taliaferro.' The Professor, in an easy,
unrestrained manner, gave some sound
advice to tbe class, Although shor*, it
would be diffionlt to orowtl more good
souse in so few remarks u those he mode.
These proceedings were divenified by
musio from tke bond, and occupied little
more than one boar's time.
.The Faculty, class and invited guests
then adjourned to the Kimball House
ball-room, where, with aieleot orowd,
they passed the remainder of the even'
ing fn the danoe.
At 11 o.’olook supper wu snnonnoad.
This department of the evening’s enter
tainment came nnder tbe epeolsl manage
ment of Ool. Nicholls, assisted by hie
“bower," ProfessorBellisario. Though
the notioe wu short, and the attendance
rauoh larger then wu eotloipeted,
yet to one unfamiliar with the
magical toaoh of Belliiaria, would
have oonoluded that he had been
days aud weeks preparing end ar
ranging the tempting dishes so lavishly
spread. It wu a fitting finale to the
leut of reason which bad just preceded
it, end ita satire management la a science
ofitailf.
Altogether the exercises, ball and up
per will long bo remembered by the
young M. D’e., for whose benefit end
pleasure it Was arranged. It will be one
of those landmarks of tbe halcyon days
of youth.
