Atlanta, August 24.—The S. A. E. Fra ternity, a well known secret society at southern colleges, is in convention assem bled to-day in Atlanta. The Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity* was organized in 1850 at the University of Alabama, situated at Tuscaloosa, by Noble Leslie DeVotie, of Columbus, Ga., and prior to the war the order spread very rapidly. During the war many of the members were killed, while those who survived scattered to all quarters of the union. In 1866 chapter Beta, at the University of Georgia, was organized by members of the old chapter at the Georgia Military Institute, and in a few years the fraternity regained its former prestige and excellence. S. A. E. now numbers twenty-seven ac tive chapters in universities throughout the south, and plans are on foot for the es tablishment of others. This fraternity lias upon its rolls the names of John G. Car lisle, L. Q. C. Lamar, Congressman W. L. Wilson ot West Virginia, ex-Congressman N. N. Clements of Alabama, Chancellor P. H. Mell, Dr. A. A. Lipscomb and many others whose uames are well known throughout Georgia and the south. There are sixty members living iu Atlanta. Messrs. Henry R. Goetchius and John D, Little are present from Columbus. The convention elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, John D. Pope, beta alumnus; first vice- president, S. J. Foster, jr.,Tennessee, zeta; second vice-president, 8. H. Dent,jr., Iota, alumnus; secretaries, N. L. Hutchins, jr., Georgia, beta; B. G. Brice, South Carolina, mu; R. D. Ross, North Carolina, theta. The convention will be in session three days, and will be tendered a banquet by the local members. A Senatorial Convention. Atlanta, August 24.—The democratic executive committee for the 35th senato rial district adopted the following resolu tion; Resolved, That a convention of the 35th senatorial district be called to meet iu the basement of the courthouse in the city of Atlanta on Saturday, the 11th of Septem ber, at 12 m., to nominate a candidate for senator of the 35th district, said convention to consist of double the representation which the counties have in the lower house of representatives of the state legislature. Atlanta, August 24.—Commissioner of agriculture, Judge John T. Henderson, went down to Augusta this morning. Comptroller Wm. A.Wright has recoved flue pieces, from hilf an Inch to one quar- ter ofan inch and less. Arrange the ma- chine so that the corn after it is cut will tall into the silo, as 1 have done this, and it will save much handling." “Do you think tile corn would keep without cutting it up ?” ** T ? sir, I do not. Mr. M. L. Patterson tried it last year and it was all badly dam aged. But if it would keep ever so well l would not put it away without cutting it up. 1 keep one hand busy all the while clearing up my lot and feeding my cattle and stock, and it is all I can do to get mv ensilage fed out after it is already cut up. It must be cut up before it is fed, and the best possible time to do it is when it is put away in the bulk. I use the same engine that I gin with for running my cutter.” “Do you think that fodder alone would do to put iu a silo?” “I do not, for two reasons: In the first place it is so light and bulky that it is diffi cult to exclude the air by pressure; and in the next place it has none of the preserv ing qualifies about it that the corn-stalk lias. There is just enough sugar in the corn-stalk to preserve it and make it pala table to stock and cattle. The corn-stalk will compress itself of its own weight suit! cientlv to exclude the air; and when left in bulk for several days alter being cut up, it wilj form an air-tight covering.” On saying; this Mr. Peacock took us into a room which he had not disturbed for several days, and which was nearly full of the fragrant smeling, and when disturbed, smoking hot ensilage, and began to re move the top covering. “See, that is bad. isn’t it? Now, how is that? Taste it.” And it was really pleasnnt to the taste. “Do you think the ensillage is damaged any by coming through such a beat?” “On the contrary, it is simply cooked aud thus rendered more digestible to ani- aninmls of all kinds. I never knew a horse, a mule or a cow to refuse to eat it with a vim.” What is the main advantage of ensillage over other kind of feed? “Why it affords green feed for your cows all winter, and green feed insures yellow butter. I defy any man to make yellow butter without green feed.” OT This is a small part of the conversation that took place between your correspond ent and Mr. Johnson and Mr. Peacock. It will pay any man who expects to build a silo to go and see Mr. Peacock and bis silo,for he has made it a success, and it will pay any man who has to buy his butter, and wants a good article, to'get some of Mr. Peacock’s butter. Mr. Irby Hudson, of Florida, passed by here yesterday on his way to his summer resort in Harris county. The negroes closed their association at Mt. Olive church Sunday night. Wide awake Captain Bob Blanford caught up with several of them who were trying to steal a vide to the city en route from the association Sunday evening. Like old Dr. Tucker, of the Christian Index, I insist that the word negro be spelled with a capi tal N, for they are a distinct and peculiar race. Turnips are fine now, aud we are still planting the seed while eating the salad. Let everv body plant turnips. I know an energetic young farmer yvko told me that he planted his turnips over thirteen times last year. ESCAPED WITH HIS LIFE. A Muring Swimmer In a Cork Vast Hu* a Terrible Experience In Niagara Itaphls. Niagara Falls, Out., August 22.—Wm. J. Kendall, of Boston, to-day swam suc cessfully in a cork vest tlie whirlpool rapids of Niagara river. The trial was to settle a wager of $10,000 made by Boston parties, he to receive $1000 of the stakes. There were few spectators of the affair, it having been kept quiet. Kendall relates the followingexperiencee when he reached the spot where Captain Webb is supposed to have lost his life: The water seemed to go from under him, and a huge wave struck him on the head and shoulders, knockiug him uncon scious for a few moments, lie found his swimming abilities of no use whatever and never expected to come out alive. When entering the whirlpool he was so benumb ed and partly unconscious that he could not use a linib and did not know what lie yvas doing. The current took him right into the main eddy and sucked him down like a flash, keeping him under fully fif teen seconds. Upon reaching the under current lie was shot out of the pool fully - & — fifty feet from its center. When fie reached from his attack of neuralgia, and is again the surface oi the water he had partly re- gained consciousness, and knowing there was no time to spare before he would be dashed down the lower rapids he swam to prisoners are idly leaning, smoking their paper cigarettes, consists oi two or inreo aione-lhigged chambers above and the same number below stairs. The upper chambers are devoted to women, the lower to men, caught m liagraute delicto, who uwuit there tin. mandate ol' the authorities, which shall either free or send them to the nearest prison or carcel proper, there to be herded with a host of inaletaetors until their trials shall be concluded. The prisoners in these lock-ups fare badly indeed. In the summer scorched * with heat, eaten by vermin in the winter, sleep ing witnout either bed or rug on the coni stone, with but one meal a day oi coarse rancho or pottage, they pass tneir time leaning against Hie bars, scorting at passers-boy in the street. They curse and swear, gamble awuy their clothes, and in the intervals between these pastimes can on irod, on lie a veil ana the Virgin to de liver t-uem. They are kept there, it may ue a few days ana it may be for six or seven years. The conversation in made up of blasphemy and obscenity; the dirt is appalling, the allotted fooa wretched. Many are brought to these dens merely as suspected accomplices oi some crime, and they are kept there, and thus hardly treated until they have confessed nil they know. With the women, hard treatment, the exposure, the absence of decency, often brings about the desired erfect, and they eoniess and betray all. With the men a Hogging, eoupieil with this bad i:u*o aim ail ihe rest oi it, often extracts a confes sion. MANUFACTURE OF DUMMY 1ND.ANS.

SEEING A SILO. i Visit to 0. L. Peacock's .Silo in Russell County, Ala—It Is a Success and a (»ood Thing for Farm* Campbell Says They Were Too Cowardly to Fight— The Field Marshal on the Matter.

It is a matter of j i n talking of the McLean-Halstead matter, Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. Fortson, Ga., August 24.—One day last week your correspondent in company with Mr. F. J. Johnson went down to Mr. the shore. While landing he was so over come that he again became unconscious, and his assistants were fully half an hour occupied in reviving him with the aid of stimulants and by rubbing. When asked if he would ever make an other trip he said most emphatically : “No, there is not enough money in the world to induce me to re peat this afternoon’s experience. A child would have the same chance to go through the rajiids and come out all right as an expert swimmer.” It took him three minutes to go from the railroad bridge to the whirlpool. Kendall is twen ty-four years of age, six feet two inches in height, weighs 1!I5 pounds and is well pro portioned. He was born in New York, but has spent most of his life in Boston.

Mr. Johnson and your correspondent decided to take the cool part of the day for travel, and so we were well on our way by the time we could see to travel, and passed through your city when but few of her inhabitants had aroused themselves from the slumbers of the previous uight. We soon found ourselves traveling in the public highway, through fenceless fields, and were reminded that that was a section ot country where everybody was compelled by law to take care of his own stock. . We reached Mr. Peacock’s house m good time, and found him full of enthusiasm in ird to the dairv business in general, and __ ,• people Campbell is reportedtohavespokento- know what a silo is for, or^ have the least j day as follows to Judge Caldw ell, of the police court: . . “They were both too cowardly to fight. I told McLean that he had done what none of his ancestors had over done—shown the white feather, and that He stead was tickled to death over it.” A special from New York to an evening paper represents Mr. Halstead as saying: “The correspondence, conducted on my part bv Colonel Terrell is sufficiently fa miliar.'and I have no comment to make upon it except the fact that Mr. McLean disclaims, as General Pryor puts it, ‘with indignant resentment,’ that be made any such statements about me, and solemnly avows that he Mail and Express. Home industries bear about the same re lation to the generality of trades as that of the stage and journalism to the profes sions. They are modes of gaining a liveli hood about which those engaged in the set vocations know little or nothing, so far as the inside Workings are concerned. Hucli industries are unique in themselves. For successful operation they seem to re quire persons with a special aptitude for nothing else- the odd sticks that will lit in no other hole. In many cases t he pro ducts of these industries are as familiar to the public eye as are newspapers on the streets or show bills on dead walls; but the number of persons who iollow these peculiar pursuits is so small, comparatively, and they are so completely outside the routine of every day business, that the vast army of money getters in ordinary have ns little knowl edge of them as if they were inhabitants of China or the moon. Few objects, police men and lampposts excepted, are more familiar to the: public, for instance, than the cigar store wooden Indian. This aus tere but unoffending savage can be found holding silent vigil on the sidewalk in nearly every block. Yet, probably not one person in a thousand lias any idea where he comes from. In New York there are but three places where the only red man known to civilization that doesn’t want whisky, a scalp and an appropria tion is manufactured. A Mail and Express reporter discovered this fact and some other interesting points about the cigar store aboriginal a few days ago. Two of the places where he is created are in Canal street. The only other place in this city is in Goerck street. In one of the Canal street places the re porter found a jolly-faced, middle-aged man, anned with paint pot and brush, industriously rejuvenating an aged warrior, whose face wore a deep scowl and a long crack down the middle of his nose. Around the place were other savages of various ages aud in different stages of preservation. “Yes, this is the hospital,” said the man with the jolly face, replying to the repor ter’s question. “And we have a good many patients in the course of a year. The long-suffering cigar store red man gets some pretty hard usage from small boys and other idiots. I’m at work on a lfi- year-old veteran, and lie’s never been in hospital before. When I get through with him he’ll be good for another sixteen years. That old fellow ’ll outlive me, if he has good luck.” With this philosophic observation the artist neatly plugged the crack in the old brave's nose, and put some deep carmine war paint on his cheeks. “Learn the trade?” continued the artist in reply to another question. “Yes, in deed; I’ve been at it since I was 13 years old. There are very few in the business. A good man can make $4, sometimes $5 a j easv . sa j t ;, day, chopping out wooden Indians. Sculp- ! August.... turing? No, we don’t call it that; just plain | geptembe: chopping, that’s all there is to it. We get ' pine legs from five to seven feet long, according to the size of the image to be made. You can see some of the logs through the door in the back room. Then the first thing is April to hew the log roughly to the outlines of ; May the proposed figure. A man with a long ! 'j u 5>' chisel and a mallet then takes the work in • Ju, . v hand and rapidly cuts the block down. I .

Care must ot course be L, A. net receipts 116, taken to follow the grain of the wood. 1 —' The trunk of the figure is all one piece, but the arms have to be put on with the grain. It is the same with any sharply-curved po sition.” In the cock-loft above two able-bodied men were making chips and Indians as fast as they knew how, Both brandished long, thin-bladed chisels, and were whacking away, apparently without the slightest regard for consequences. Three savages ready to graduate to the painting department were standing in one corner, and showed the chopping by the two men was not so reckless as it seemed. The nose of a young buck grew out of otic block on the bench, and the graceful ankles of and Indian maiden out of the block before the other wood sculptor while the reporter looked on.
