The Perils of Journalism.—We understand
that a young man in onr city, whose name wc
bad the temerity to associate with a little.epi
sode in the Mayor's Corirt last week, is on the
war-path, and with a deadly Barlow, thirsts for
our blood. Now, in all of our reports, wc shall
state fact* just as they occur, and if iu a tree
country, freedom of speech is not accorded to a
free man, and above all, if the liberty of the
Press is to be restricted, we think it is time
that personal measures arc taken to secure the
same. Hereafter, tbeu, we shall arm ourselves
with a Mountain Howitzer, and will be ready
on all occasions for the tbul invader.

Having for some time considered that
the progressive interest of our city could
in no way be better subserved, than
through a medium l>y which to continu
ally advertise the world of our advant
ages, educationally, commercially, agri
culturally, and in many other respects,
and with already an assurance on the
part of a large portion of our citizens to
contribute their aid and encouragement,
to our enterprise;, we have determined
to issue, commencing Thursday, Sept.

The Athens Daily Georgian.
We will issue three numbers of The
Athens Georgian, the Daily, the

engaged to receive the regular Asso

John T. Reynold’s Combination, the Stewart ! to our readers, through OUr Daily, the
Sisters, and the Holman Opera Troupe, besides
many others, are expected.
If these Companies come to Augusta, we sin
cerely hope that some of them will favor Athens
also. Here, we have a fine and commodious
Opera House andan appreciative community,
and we see no reason why our stage should not
be honored with some of the “Star" actors.
After the reception we gave tlie Holman's Inst

According to our announcement in theGEOR-
oiAN last week, the Augusta Convocation of the
Protestant Episcopal Church convened in
Emanuel Church, in this city, last Tuesday
night. The sermon was preached by Rev. W.
P. Kramer, of Augusta, from tlie Text—
“ Min was made from the dnst ot the earth, and into
his nostrils was breathed the breath of life.”
This discourse was an exceedingly logical
one, and evinced deep thought and great ener
gy of expression. Mr. Kramer delivered it in
bis usual effective manner, and made a profound
impression upon his audience. As a preacher,
wc know none of the Diocese who is
superior to him; socially, he is most en
gaging and interesting in manners, ~^0n Wed
nesday, the Rev. Mr. Knowles, of Madison,
preached. Thursday morning, Mr. Kramer,
again, and Thursday,night, the Rev. Mr. Claris
of Augusta, concluded the exercises. The Con
vocation wai MTictly a religious exercise, there;
being nothing,secular introduced snd no busi
ness whatever transacted. Convocations of the
Established Church of England hnve long been
in vogue, the proceedings being purely sarcedo
subscribers a paper, not only larger
and containing more of reading matter,
but replete at all times with the latest
news from all parts of the world.
In the conduct of our paper, wo
shall at all times, as we have in the
past, be independent in all things,
commending that which is right, and
condemning that which is wrong. In
politics, wc shall adhere tenaciously and
unreservedly to those principles which
are protective of the rights of the States,
and of the whole people, such as are
guaranteed under u common Constitu
tion, nnd which ore ever antagonistic
to corruption, sectional supremacy and
constitutional disregard.
Each of onr issues will contain
liberal amount of reading matter, upon
all subjects, embracing politics, educa
tion, science; literature, religion, ngri
culture and the various mechanical and
industrial pursuits. Iu ; our Daily we
shall devote much attention to the local
