A Tilden Reform Club.
What say tha young men of Athens and
of Clark county to forming a Tilden aud
Hendricks Democratic Club? Such clubs
are being iormed all over the State aud we
should, by no means, be behind in the good
work. We would like to receive during the
present week the names of all of our young
men who are willing to unite in the formation
of such a club, and such proposals as they
may feel disposed to make, should our sug
gestion meet their approval we will then an,
uounce a time for our first meeting. Send in
your names and your suggestions - to this
office.
HON. PATRICK WALSH.
It having been our honor and pleasure
to serve for the past four y^sars in the House
of Representatives with the honorable gen
tleman whose name heads this notice, wo
can safely say that no one ever left upon
the journals of the Legislature a truer,
purer and better record—oue of which ho
and his county may well be proud, and
which justly entitles him to the thanks of a
well served constituency.
It cannot bo deemed flatteiing thus to
speak of one so well and so favorably
known in connection with the Legislature
of Georgia for the past few years, nor can
it be considered obtrusive on our part, to
thus furnish the voters of his Senatorial
district with such facts and such evidence
as we may possess, and which may safely
guide them in the selection of their next
State Senator.
We hope to see the people of this
district bestow the honor where it justly
belongs, believing that Mr. Walsh would
add additional lustre to his already well-
known fame by doing bonor to the district
and State as Senator.
WHY IS IT?
Far be it from our purpose to intermed
dle with the affairs of any of our contem
poraries, or by instituting inquiry seek to
interfere with the action of other counties
or districts. Still, wc cannot understand
why it is that the Macon Telegraph and
Messenger, and perhaps other paters Of
that Congressional district, arc so indiffer
ent to the merits of the lion. A. O. Bacon,
if not antagonistic to his political advance
ment.
This expression should not strike our
friends of the Press with surprise when they
remember that the ability and fidelity with
which Major Bacon lias represented his
county for the last six or eight years has
not only won for him the reputation of
being one of the best and ablest members
Kentucky versus Bourbon.
Louisville, July 27.—The first state
convention of prohibitionists was held here
to-day, to organize a paity for the canvass
for the presidency of the United States.
Green C. Smith of this slate, who is the
prohibition candidate for the presidency, was
present and made a speech.
Kentucky should remember that the
attempt to legislate morals into the people
has always met with signal failure. Better
not raise that issue which will only be cal
culated to continue whiskey drinking Radi
calism in power. To prevent this evil better
unite with the reformists, than attempt to
organize the prohibitionist.

CROPS.
Crop indications are more favorable this
week than we reported last; genial showers
have fallen in and around town. In some
portions of the county there were fine sea
sons. If we continue to have rains the corn
crop, notwithstanding the disaster that have
befallen the bottom lands, is likely to be
larger than it was last year. Good crops
this year will, we think, place the greater
portion of our people in a state of indepen
dence. We already observe they are inau
gurating a system of economy. With this
continued, and blessed-with-good crops, all
can get out of debt, take the Georgian and
be independent as “ cock partridges."
ORDINANCE.
At its last meeting the Council passed an
ordinance requiring the marshal to arrest all
persons who are found walking or strolling
the streets after nine o’clock at nigbt, and
cannot give a satisfactory account of them
selves. And now the ringing tones of the
bell falling on the stillness of the nocturnal
air serve as a warning to the would be stroll
ers and reminds them that they must seek
their “little beds.” No case has arisen as
yet under the “ enforcement” act
aforesaid, but a few nights since, if our
diligent mnrshal had been going the
rounds on Howell street, two young gal
lants would have been called upon to “ rise
and explain.” Through a parlor window
they beheld the fair form of a nvmpb gently
reclining by a piano. The sweet melody of
the music had died away and the maid,
whose voice had ceased to send forth its
musical thrill, with a pensive melancholy
overspreading her face, sat with an easy
abandon forcibly reminding the aforesaid-
youths of the fair Beatrice Foscari, of whom
they had read (?) Long would they have
lingered and gazed, but the ghastly form of
the aforesaid ordinance bade them retire
from the scene and seek their homes.

The best way to provide against the

another year is to sow largely of small g.ain

We had a case of “Georgia Justice,” a
few days ago, according to the “good old
way.” Dr. Geo. Ebcrhart, being a ^corpu-
lent man and a physician besides, is fond of
watermelons. In view of this fact he con
cluded he would not trust to the
contingencies of trade, and therefore planted
him a melon “ patch,” which now is delight
ful for the eye to look upon. A young
“cullcrd gem men ” passing that way was
tempted and fell; he partook of the forbid

he was asked to go to jail or waive his right

Trustees of the* University of
Georgia; One More Question!*
Have you faithfully carried out your
contract with the Governor of Georgia
since you accepted the United States
“ Land Scrip” appropriation, as a trust for
the “ State College of Agriculture and Me
chanic Arts ?”
We respectfully call your attention to an
article in the Southern Cultivator, for Au
gust, from the able pen of its editor, Dr.
W. L. Jones, under tlic heading, “ Agri
cultural Colleges—lias the fund donated
by Congress been properly used Y*
As a matter of justice to the farmers and
mechanics of Georgia, and to the citizens of
Athens, (who have donated twenty-five
thousand dollars to this Institution,) wc
hope that the Trustees will not adjourn un
til this question has been satisfactorily set
tled.
If you are indifferent as to the future of
the,New’ College ^of Agriculture and Me
chanic Arts, cling, then, to your “first love,”
“the wreck” of the old University, and
permit the Alumni Society to elect the
Board of Trustees for the former. The
same to consist of men of younger years,
more zeal and energy, and men tcho live in
the future—not in the past.
By all means, let Dr. Jones be requested
to appear before yonr body, and let him, as
a representative member of the “ Georgia
State Agricultural Society,” be authorized
to report your action to this Body at its
Convention, at Gainesville, on the 8th inst.
Let all important questions relating to the
welfare of onr cherished University be dis
posed of at once, and let peace and har
mony, for the future, reign among the
friends of Education throughout our State.
Gubernatorial Convention.
To-morrow the Convention meets to nom
inate a candidate for Governor. From the
declaration of the respective counties it is
fairly estimated that Geu. Colquitt has
quite two-thirds of the vote of the Conven-.
tion. This,of course, secures his nomination
even though the two-thirds rule should
be adopted. Now it is to be hoped and,
indeed, it is believed that the opposing can
didates will add to that high order of patriot
ism which has even won for them the esteem
and admiration *of their countrymen, addi
tional fame, by retiring from the race, thus
enabling the Convention to declare the nomi
nation of Gen. Colquitt unanimously and
by acclamation. Such harmony and unity
of action on the part of the Convention
would undoubtedly give to the party that
prestige which would forestall all indepen
dent movement, and secure an overwlielm-
in{^Democratic majority at the November
election.

The Louisiana Democracy have nominated
Gen. (Francis H. Nicholls for Governor
and Hon. Louis A. Wilt* for Lieut. Gover

brigade in the army of Northern Virginia
and lost a leg and an arm in the service.
Mr. Wiltz is the ex-Speaker of the House
who was ousted by DeTrobriand’s federal
bayonets, in January a year ago. It is
thought that the Democrats will succeed in
Cttrying the State with this ticket.

it was called—was celebrated rather more
than that of’70. John Brown, who essayed
to spread fire-brands, arrows and death in
the old Commonwealth of Virginia, which
gave birth to Washington, was enmionized
in a bronze statue; while Sherman and
Meade,and other worthies of the same stripe,
and Sumner and Chase atnl the like, were
put as large as IMfe among the saviours of
their country. I did not see a picture of
the author of the Declaration of Independ
ence, or any of the early slave-holding
Presidents or great men ot the South, save
Washington himself, and he is doubtless
looked upon as an old sinner.
Tho two largest pictures I remember to
have seen, was the one presenting the read
ing of the emancipation proclamation, by
Lincoln, in which the poor slave is repre
sented lying in the dust in chains, ready to
be released. The other was the battle of
Gettysburg, in which the Federal soldiers
arc represented as dccent^while men; while
the Confederates, in grey, have contorted,
merciless faces, with a cut-tliroat, demoni
acal appearance, which did tho utmost
injustice to our brave men and our wholo
section of country. All this tallied well
with the representative, wlto in the debate
about opening the Centennial on Sunday,
argued that the South should not be al
lowed a voice in the matter, as it was got
up and sustained by tho North. I am
glad, under the circumstances, that Georgia
and other Southern States refused to ap
propriate money to aid in such political
presentation of the Centennial.
While I claim that we have an equal in
terest in the. formation of this government
with the North, and a right to celebrate its
Centennial, yet, I am satisfied that the
time has not arrived when the conquered
South can have justice done them by the
North. Here are noble exceptions, but I
fear they arc few.
I find New York a much p’easantcr city
than either Philadelphia or Baltimore, as
we have a bracing sea-breeze during most
the dny. Everything seems perfectly flat
in commercial circles, and it really seems
that the lowest point has hardly been
reached. Wc hope for better things, how
ever.
New York city fa unquestionably strong
for Tilden, and he will, I presume, carry
the State; but I firmly believe (hat the
Hamburg massacre has hurt him already
thousands of votes, and a few more such
rash acts will place him hors de combat be
fore the Northern masses; for all of their
old anti-slavery and anti-chivalry prejudices
will be aroused by the radical papers, and
even such papers os the New York Herald
will aid hfa defeat if such scenes are to be
re-enacted. Agricola.
