Ck ^t|ras dtorman. 1 (. CARLTON, Editor. TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 1» 1*7#. The want of space forces us to postpon* an account of our recent trip to the coun ties of Hart, Elbert and Oglethorpe, until our next issue. Tub Patrons of the Georgian who have failed to pay their subscriptions for this year, will please remember that we cannot furnish you a readable paper through the dull summer months without some money; so open your pocket-books, loosen your purse-strings, and make us a remittance at onee. If you hare no greenbacks, send us some of those old rusty silver dollars you have been hoarding for years. To-day, thev are worth no store than the greenbacks. The Conkling men are growing more and more confident and now offer to stake their last greenback that he will distance the field at Cindnnatli. The Belknap impeachment still engages the attention of the United States Senate and the vote, by which that body has declar ed its right of jurisdiction in the case, will no doubt, be given in favor of impeaching the ex-Secretary. The Athens Chalybeate (Ferro-Uthic) Spring. We present elsewhere a communication from Prof. H.C. White of theState Universi ty giving a qualitative analysis of the Spring recently discovered near the Northeastern Railroad. This analysis not only shows the water of this Spring a true chalybeate which in its constituent elements contains some of the most valuable mineral salts common to such waters, but exhibits the presence of Lithia one of the most valuable and beneficial con stituents which can be found in any of the mineral or medicinal waters. Lithia is re garded by the medical profession as one of the most valuable additions to the Materia Mcdica as a ready solvent of the Uric acid formations in the human system. It not only serves the prevention of the formation in the system of the insoluble salts of Uric acid and their deposition in the bladder, kidneys, or joints, but favours the solution of such salts when already formed. It also serves the prevention and solution of the chalky deposits in the joints and ligamentous tissues of gouty patients, consisting chiefly of Urate of Soda It is an invaluable diure tic, eliminating from the system Uric acid, the basis of many of the formations, which pro duce a large proportion of human suff ering. To sum up, this water, besides being a fine tonic by reason of its ferruginous constituents, is a most valuable remedy in rheumatism, gout, dropsy, and to those per sons who are either threatened with or suffer ing from gravel and the usual calculous formations. Having thus presented a par tial view of the great remedial benefits which our people may expect fiom this recently discovered spring, let us now consider its other advantages to our city. There is no greater necessity existing in Athens, than a public park, or some public place where our people may find retreat during those leisure hours which are so essontial to all classes of society. Then the discovery of this spring, ata point so convenient to our city und one which nature has already rendered attrac tive, would seem to determine the location The Georgia Commonwealth is now one'! of our “City Park.” How conducive to of the daily delights of our sanctum. Col.' the general health of our community would Styles makes a strong, able and vigorous 1 such a retreat prove, to say nothing of the paj>er, and which as a palladium of true benefits to be derived from the use of this Democratic principles, the rights and j invaluahle mineral spring.

Tho gloom which pervaded our entire community last i Saturday morning at tho telegraphic annonnoement of the death of the lady whose name heads this notice, was a sad, solemn and unmistakable attestation of the love and esteem in which die was held in this, her native home.. Mrs. Adams, the consort of Bcv. Wm. H. Adams, pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church, at Charleston, 8. C., and daughter of Col. and Mrs. Stevens Thomas, of this place, had been in feeble health for some months past. Her husband thinking a trip North would benefit ber, took her, a few months since to visit his parents iu New York. At first, she seemed much improved as to her gener al health; indeed, her parents were in daily receipt of letters so informing them, haring received on last Friday a telegram bearing the cheering intelligence of her better iron ditiou. Bnt alas! ere they had ceased to rejoice over this late news of ber promised restoration to health, the announcement of her death on last Satui day morning came •• like a thunderbolt from a dear sky" to turn the sunshine of joy which now o'er spread this happy family circle into sadness mid mourning over the loss of a favorite daugh ter and sister. To here attempt a eulogy to this highly esteemed and much-beloved lady, would be in vain, since our pen must fail of justice to the memory* of one so worthy of praise. Modest, but self-reliant; gentle, but ear nest; tender and true, her whole life was such a panegyric to her memory as needs not the aid ot the eulogist, or the efforts of those who fain would write her praise. Tho news of the death of Mrs. Adams, while it will bring sadness to many a heart, yet, none will receive it with deeper regret than the many cx-Confederate soldiers who remember her as the soldier’s true friend. With a patriotism so charac teristic of our Sonthem women, and which, in her, was never excelled and but rarely equaled, she was oue of the first ladies of our town to form the “Soldiers’Aid So ciety,” and was the first, the original Sec retary. She was also one of tho first to orgauixe the “ Ladies’ Memorial Asso ciation” after the war, and was. until her removal to her home in Charleston, an active and devoted member of that organization. Nowhere were the results of her devotion to the 44 lost cause,” so plainly to be seen, as upon the tented field; nowhere were the effects of her patriotic influence so plainly to be wit nessed, os upon the battle field. Many are those who reading this notice of her death, will call to mind, the enspiriting influence which her patriotic communications, ad dress'd as Secretary of the 44 Ladies Aid Society” to the different companies that left this section, carried to their hearts when weary and worn with the toils and fatigues of protracted war. The disc -■'*date and sorely bereaved hus- bin the deeply afflicted family, who - first time are called upon to mourn the less of one of their circle, have the heart-felt sympathies of our entire communi ty. May that Providence which shapes our destinies soften this blow to the many weeping and sorrow stricken friends. The reraaius of Mrs. Adams are expected here on to-morrow for interment in Oconee Cemetery, and when deposited in that rest ing place hallowed by many a sacred asso ciation, 44 may violets spring’’ to mark the spot where rests one so young and so fair, 44 On whom death lies, like an untimely frost Upon the sweetest flow’r of all the field.” ANALYSIS OF OUR NEW CHA- LYBEATEJSPRING. Water Decidedly Mineral. tural speech in McDuffie county yesterday, — Chronicle and Sentinel. Now Gregg, is the significance which you doubtless intend by your italics, in keeping with that spirit of fairness which you claim iu behalf of your favorite candidate, Hon. H. V. Johnson ? At the conclusion of General Colquitt’s agricultural speech in Hart county, the other day, some 44 enthusiastic friends” proposed to hold a mass meeting instaiiter, and send Colquitt delegates to the State Convention. General Colquitt, however, requested the enthusiastic to wait, remem bering perhaps that it was usual to give notices of such meetings, and that tiie people arc opposed to simp judgments.— Chronicle and Sentinel. Agricultural, again italixed. Well, Gen. Colquitt is too courteous a gentleman to refuse his agricultural friends, when they request him to address them on that sub ject which most interests them. He was engaged in making such speeches through out Georgia, long before his name was pro minent for Governor, and has made fewer speeches since be hus been spoken of in that connection than he did before such mention was made. He was requested at Hartwell to make a political talk to the people present, but declined, saying, that his mission among them was to talk to them upon the all important subject ot agricul ture. As to the enthusiasm which prevailed at Hartwell, and which po, tended the select ion of Colquitt delegates, we have only to s»y, that one of the objects of calling the meeting was to select delegates, and bad Gc-n. Colquitt not beeu there it doubtless would have been done, and nodonbta unani mous expression in favor of him for Governor wonld have been given by this tho largest convention cf the people we have seen foi many a day. The General as well as some of his friends, learning that the selection ol delegates was one of the objects of tl e meeting, requested that it should not be done at that time, as it might place him in an embarrassing petition, and that bis presence might perchance prevent, at least to some degree, a free expression on the part of the Convention. Colquitt Ahead. Tho declaration of Colombia county for Gen. Colquitt for Governor will doubtless be speedily followed by . the same course on the part of Hart, Elbert, Oglethorpe, Green, Hancock, Burke, Wilkes and other counties, thus making the 8th Congression al District one of Colquitts strong holds. Hurrah for tbe old eight. Only seven more days of work and of care and its able and efficient teachers will rest front their labors, which have been long and well, both wonderfully productive of eood, and as usual signally successful. The Commencement is about two weeks earlier than usual this year, the regular scholastic term, however, having be n completed. In conversation with Rev. P. A. Heard, we learn that while the usual interesting exercises, so highly appreciated by our com munity, may be looked for, still there have been no undue efforts or grand preparations for this final celebration; recognizing as they do, the importance of continuing the regular duties and exercises uninterrupted by the excitement of rehearsals and practicings, full up to date. Of course these prepara tions have been going on, but the routine of school duties has not been diminished in regularity and thoroughness on that account. The elocutionary part of the Commencement, under the charge of Mr. Heard and Mrs. Wright, will .preserve its usual interest in point of culture and finish, while under the entire supervision of Prof. Amende, tbe musical entertainments promise to be both elegant and brilliant. The Commencement sermon will be preached uext Sunday, 18th. insL, by Dr. Tucker, Chancellor of the University, while Dr. A. A. Lipscomb, now of Vanderbilt University, will deliver the annual literary address. The high order of ministerial and of literary eloquence possessed by these two able divines will add great attraction and weight to the other in teresting exercises of the approaching Lucy Cobb Commencement. The following isj * list of the graduating class, kindly given us by one of the Ifessen ger's editorial staff; Miss Susie Milton, (Florida). Salutatorian; Misses Nellie Alexander, Athens; Amy Beusse, Athens; Cora Brown, Atlanta; Mariou Cobb, Athens; Ida Castleberry, Augusta; Ida Dorrey, Athens; Mary Eber- heart, Athens; Lila Fleming, Athens; Hattie Fowler, Atlanta; Ella Hearn, Eaton- ton; Ada Huggins, Athens; 8usie Kelley, Washington; Lollie Rutherford, Athens; Susie Taylor, Athens; Tallulah Dennis, Eatonton, Valedictorian. Certainly it wonld be a work of supereroga tion upon our part to wish the Commence ment a success. Tbe Institute has always attained that high standard in its Literary and Musical entertainments which in scholas tic rank it takes among Southern Female Seminaries, and the citizens of Athens and vicinity have ever shown by their att«nd« ni w. and appreciation that the Lucy Cobb Insti tute, founded by an honored citizen, presided over by able teachers, sustained by the fostering care of public patronage, is second in their hearts to no public or private en terprise. In Xrmoriaoi. Mrs. Elizabeth Witherspoon departed this life at Athens, Georgia, on the 8th of May, 1876, aged eighty-thiee years. Born in 1793 of Presbyterian parents, she was baptized in infancy by the Rev. John Newton at Bethsalem church in Oglethorpe county, Georgia. The family soon after moved to Jackson county, Georgia, where her father, Mr. John Espy, became an elder in the Sandy Creek church. In 1811, tbe subject of this sketch was married to Mr. James Witherspoon, who was also an elder at Sunday Creek. Some time previous to her marriage, she was admitted to the com muuion, becoming a member of the church of her fathers by profession. She won left a widow, in 1827, with several children, four of whom survive her. Residing for many years in the later portion of her life at Athens, she was revered and loved as a mother in Israel indeed. Her faithfulness in all her duties, her sunny cheerfulness of spirit, her interest in tbe cause of Christ, endeared her to a wide circle of friends. Her trust in the Saviour did not for a mo ment waver during her last illness. At times she suffered intensely, but no murmur at the Irord’s dealings with her escaped her lips. Her mind daring the illness was, for the most part, unclouded. She felt that it was her lost sickness and was almost impa tient to go to be forever with tbe Lord. With but little suffering daring the Inst day of her life, lying asleep, as she was carried gently into the dark valley by Him in whom she trusted; at 4$ p. m. the silver cord was loosed. A bereaved family and fimiily cir cle, a bereaved church and community bereft of ber prayers and sympathy and encourage ment mourn her loss, but rejoice in tbe be lief that she is safe, and forever beholding the glory of Jesus in the paradise of God. Crop Notes. Most of the wheat in this section totu eat daring the past week or ten days. It bong a fine season for harvesting, onr tanners made good use of it. In some portions of the country, the crop has been considerably damaged by the rust, in others it has suf fered more from the fly, but owing to the large quantity which was sown, we may expect a fair average crop. The Oat crop Is nnosnally fine through ont all this section. Winter Gbits are troubled somewhat with the rust, bnt it is now too near the season for cutting them to expect much damage from this sonree.

Editor Athens Georgian - Hear Sir: In response to ynnr inquiry, I beg to say that I have examined, qualita tively, the water of the spring recently dis covered near the line of tbe Northeastern Railroad, with the following results; The water is decidedly “mineral” in character, the prominent constituent being Oxide of Iron, held in solution by excess of Carbonic Acid Gas. With this, are asso ciated moderate (bnt somewhat unusual) quantities of other saline substances, sm-h as Sulphate of Lime, Sulphate of Magnesia, etc. On evajroraiing a large quantity of the water, decided traces of Lithia were detected. The quantity of Organic matter is small, and nothing in any way deleterious to health was found. The water i« there fore, a true “Chalybeate,’’ and, in addition, perhaps semi-saline. The temperature of the spring, at my observation, was 57^ deg* F.; the air marking at the time, 75 degs. F. The spring is a bold one, bnt so far as I could judge—is not “ sparkling " I need hardly observe that the water contains no Snlphnr, except in the form of Snlphates, and therefore, is not “Sulphurous” in any sense. The medicinal and remedial value of min eral ■waters have been known and appre ciated from very ancient times. Chalybe ate waters, such as the one under discussion, are believed to be especially efficacious in chronic complaints, and in cases of dvstw-p- sia and uterine or general debility. The quantity of Lithia present, improves, to a marked .extent, the general medicinal value of .theater. If the Bufronndings of the spring were improved so as to induce a general use of the water by onr citizens, I have no doubt that the influence upon the general health of the community wonld be marked. Very truly yours, H. C. White. A Plan for Gubernatorial Nomina tions. A most estimable lady of this county, one of extended information, and whose ob servations lead her to note the confusions iu political as well as the perplexities in domestic affairs, scuds us the following, sug gesting, that perhaps the plan here pro posed might serve a solution of the trouble which may arise in the approaching guber natorial nomination. Greexcastlk Ivy., May, 22, 1876.—As you arc our mouthpiece in this locality I think it will be practicable for you to see the poll book of 1875 and from it make the calculation of the number of dele ates from each precinct so that we will kuow how many men to send to the convention on the lrth of June. Jake Mulkey proposes to hold the Dis- trict Convention at Greencastle by taking the card of each candidate and tack them on a large board six inches apart and let each man throw a rock at the buncii and vote for the mail nearest where the rock strikes, letting every man choose his own d.sta ice to throw.—Cor, Pantograph. Church Conferences between the North and South. Recently the Methodist and Presbyeriau Churches of the North and South have beeu holding conferences over those differ ences which for so long a time have divided these respective denominations From the following notices of the results of these conferences it appears that the Presby terians have succeeded in re es.ablishing the unity between the Northern and South ern branches of their Church, while the Methodist evince no very immediate pro bability of a reconciliation of their section al differences. The New York Herald has this to say: The long existing breach between the Presbyterian churches of the North and South has at length been satisfactorily closed, and both branches are again united in the bonds of fraternal friendship. This is ouly as it should l>e, and augurs well for the re-establishment of complete union in political sentiment as well as iu religious faith between tbe lauds of the blue and the gray- The Georgia Commonwealth, comments as follows: The Baltimore Methodist General Con- (Successor to PittARisgHliiTCH -DEALS IN- *:«. < AND EVERYTHING USUALLY KEPT IN A GROCERY STORE.
