FUSE LECTUhES TO TJIE CITIZENS OF ATHENS AND VICINITY. The'inlroductory lecture of this important and interesting course of Public Lectures by the Faculty of the Slate College of Agriculture and Mechanics Arts, was delivered on Fri day night last by the President of this insti tution, Prof. L.'H. Charbonnier. Subject: “The Atmosphere.” Ilis discourse was very kindly received and highly appreciated by a large audience of our citizens (ladies and gen tlemen) and the students of the University. AH the propeitics of “the Air” were fully illustrated by experiment and by demonstra tion. The practical uses of haromettir and hygrometer were fully explained as indicat ing the probable changes in the weather.

The Convention bill still trembles in the balance, and apropos of that-comes iu Gen. Gordon’s recent magnificent sjmh-cIi, deliv ered by request, last Monday niglit, in the Hall of Representatives, and what lie had to say about it. Let it be premised that the audience was tremendous and mane up of both sexes and of the best of the people, Lawton, of Savannah, (but whj- sa^ - that, lie is the Lawton) introduced the General iu a speech of a finger’s breadth, which was a model for all such performances. Gordon looked his gamest. If a stranger measured' Gordon by the eye, ten to one, lie would conclude, in stantly, there is too much aggressiveness too much fight in that man for him to lead at the Council-board. Well, he does look, whenever his blood is uj>, that it would be far more to liis likening to dispose of ojipo sition by knocking it sky-high than to ar gue it out of his way. But you wait, and let the seething fervors of his spirit aud the thrill of hot blood settle down, and no grave, methodical, rejiressed Quaker, could take things cooler than he does, or look closer all round the horizon for jiossibk- dangers. If your correspondent may pre tend to an intimate acquaintance w itli the intellectual habitudes.and characteristics of any of the distinguished sons of the State, he may assume to know wlmt arc Gordon’s peculiar mental traits. Among these, you may certainly number caution and lore-cast With all of our Senator’s dash, you \vill never find it propelling him over rotten ground or into an ambuscade. ITnderstand- uig ibis, the writer was not al all surjii ised to find Gen Gordon’s speech brimfull of the most prudent and sage counsel. For instance, though directly asked for his opinion and advice on the Convention ques tion, he modestly admitted that his pre occupation had prevented such close study of tbe subject as would justify the offer of an opinion upon , tiie broad merits of the subject. But saic! he, “Of one thing about it, .1 have not. a doubt, and that is, what you do, do quickly.” The speaker was profoundly impressed with th$ perils of the times. He declared, that in his judgment, there was a cloud full of wrath and, tribu lation hanging over our heads, and Detfio-. craiic success in the next Presidential elec tion could, snpply the conductors for ini harmless discharge of its terrors. The cvi ; dence which Senator Gordon addu- ed in proof of* our danger, amid such silence ns enabled one to hear his own heart beat, fastened • conviction on eVery mind. We ieittm-e to fay that every man ami woman Uftb heard the speech, rememliers to this tnduiem, the fine order maintained through- out‘the address, and the powerful array ot Mila.

W hile the General was presenting, with great force, hja reasons tor watchfulness and prudence on the pait -ofthe South, and the slia ireful use such nie|i as Morton and Blaine were making ,of our bunders, he paused, and with an if-armwtness and solemnity I hardly ever saw equalled in their imptesaiveuess, Alter a car- fill rx iuiiiuIhmi of n-e books and paper* j some room, to rent.
