The Lawrenceville Herald tells of a re¬

back, the plank broke, and Miss Pharr
was precipitated to the bottom of the well,
a distance of 40 feet. The alarm was given,
and her father went to her assistance as
quickly as possibly ; but, before he could
do anything to assist her, the plucky and
brave young lady had climbed half way to
the top of the well. She was then assisted
in getting out, and was not hurt by the
fall.

THE ATHENS RAILROAD.
The Road Will be Built from
Athens to Some Point on
the Georgia Road or to
Columbus.
The Meeting at Athens on last
Monday.
A railroad meeting was held in Athens on
Monday. It was composed principally of dele¬
gates from Morgan, Oconee and Walton counties,
and citizens of Athens. It was qaite a lively
meeting, the usual amount of speaking was in¬
dulged in, and a vast daal of eloquence display¬
ed.
The meeting was held in the interest of the
extension of the Northeastern railroad from Ath
ens to Columbus, or at least to some pqint ou
the Georgia road. Mr. Pope Barrow, the presi¬
dent of the Northeastern road, was present and
made the only real business speech delivered^
the meeting. He spoke for the Richmond and
Danville railway company, and what he said
might be regarded as “official.” He gave a his
tory of the present movement, and stated why
the extension of the Northeastern road was to be
made to some point on the Georgia railroad or to
Columbus. When the Northeastern road was
leased to the Richmond and Danville company,
the city of Athens owned i,ooo shares of stock
in the road. This stock was transferred to the
Richmond and Danville company upon the stipu¬
lation that the city of Athens was io be guaran
teed a perpetual through rate of freight relative¬
ly equal to that enjoyed by the cities of Atlanta
and Augusta, and in addition to this the Rich¬
mond and Danville company was to extend with,
in two years the Northeastern road from
Lula, its then present junction with the Rich¬
mond and Danville road to Tallulah falls, and to
Clayton, Rabun county, by 1886 . The extension
has been made to Tallulah falls, but owing to the
great expense of building it through that moun
tainous section, it has proven a very unprofitable
investment. To continue the extension to Clay¬
ton, would be still more expensive, with less hope
' of its ever paying. This being the case, it had
been suggested by a merchant of Athens that,
instead of extending the Northeastern road from
Tallulah falls to Clayton, it be extended from
Athens to some point on the Georgia road or to
Columbus. This suggestion met with a hearty
approval among the people of Athens, as well as
from the management of the R chmo.id and
Danville company. It had resulted in the pres¬
ent movement, and it now only remained for the
city council of Athens to accept this extension of
the Northeastern road in lieu of the extension
from Tallulah falls to Clayton, to secure its im¬
mediate consummation.
The city council of Athens are said to bo al¬
most unanimous in favor of it, while the citizens
are generally in favor of it, though they are di¬
vided in opinion and interest as to what point oa
ths Georgia road it shoulJ be built to.
Mr. Barrow said the road would lie completed
n two years Iromihe time the contract was
signed by the city council of Athensand the Rich¬
mond and Danville authorities.
The whole matter depends upon the action of
the city council of Athens, which appears to be
highly favorable to the building of this road.
Covington was represented Oy Messrs. A. B.
Simms, O. S. Porter and 'V. C. Clark, an I t le
editor of the Sr.v?. represented the city coun¬
cil.
To sum up the ah ii« mstter. the roal is al¬
most certai.i to be built, either to the Georgia
road or to Columbus, and wc think to the latter
point. The route upon which it will lie built de¬
pends upon future contingcnces. If it is built
only to the Georgia road; but, it ntayseek the-.icar
est point on that road it it is built through to
Columbus, it will seek the most direct route.
Madison, Rutledge, Social Circle and Coving¬
ton, are competitors for the road. The one of¬
fering the best route, the most business, and the
largest amount of subscription, will lie most like¬
ly to get it.
Covington should put herself in position at
once to whip the light. She cannot afford to
have the road built by Social Circle, or any other
route—but must have it come by here at any
cost.

Oxford Commencement.
The commencement exercises at Emory col¬
lege have been in progress, at Oxford, since last
Friday night. The graduating exercises will take

very large.
Railroad Meeting.
A meeting of our city council and a
number of the citizens of Covington was
held in the office of the clerk of the su¬
perior colH on last Saturday afternoon.
The meeting was called to order by May¬
or Pace, who explained that the object of
the meeting was to consider the matter of
sending delegates to the railroad meeting
in Athens on Monday, which was to he
held in the interest of the road from Ath¬
ens to Columbus. Large delegations of
citizens had been appointed from the
counties of Jasper, Morgan, Walton and
Oconee, who were working for the road to
go by way of Madison. Covington ought
to be represented iu that meeting, as we
were greatly interested in having the road
built by wav of our city.
On motion the mayor appointed
Messrs. 0. S. Porter, W. C. Clark and A.
B. Simms, as delegates on the part of our
citizens, and J. W. Anderson on the part
of the city council. They all left by the
fast train Sunday afternoon.
An End to Bone Scraping.
Edward Shepherd, of Harrisburg, III., says :
“Having received so much benefit from Electric
Bitters, I feel it my duty to let suffering human
ity know it Have had a running sore on my
leg for eight years ; my doctors told me 1 would
have to have the bone scraped or leg amputated. I

What is the Cause.
Editors, u a rule, rarely ever agree, and
consequently arc continually at loggerheads. —
They will take up the same subject and discus,
it in their columns, give it a thorough analyi
ing, show up all the points, and if you will
take their articles and compare them, there will
always l>e some point of disagreement. There
are, of course, exceptions to *his as well as to
other general rules, and wc propose to give an
instance where three Georgia editors are unan*
iqtously of the same opinion.
The editor of the Southern World, publish*
ed in Atlanta, says : "I know the proprietors
of Bradfield’s Female Regulator, and can vouch
for their high standing in this community. I
also, from my own knowledge, can testify that
it is a great boon to woman, with no superior,
and every lady ought to send for and read
hook on female diseases which they mail free."
The editor of the Millcdgeville Chronicle
siys he considers Bradfield’s Female
the greatest blessing ever discovered for suffer¬
ing woman; says he knows of six ladies in
community who have been cure 1 sound and
well by its use, and he would advise every suf¬
fering woman to use it.
From the editor of the Gainesville Eagle :
“I consider Bradfield’s Female Regulator the
best medicine ever compounded and offered to
the public for the diseases for which it is recom¬
mended. I am well acquainted with a lady
who never had any health until she commenc¬
ed using it. It gave her immediate relief,
and from that time until now she has enjoyed
the best of health. I can say with hearty good
will, “G hI- speed Dr. Bradfield in the sale of

How He Got a Position.
“I applied for a position in a banking
house in Wall street six months ago, and
although would I proved rov I competency, they
not take me. had been down on
my luck and looked old and shabby. An
idea struck me, I got a new growth of
hair with Parker’s Hair Balsam, raised a 1
decent suit of clothes applied again,and
they took me in a minute.” So writes a j
cierk with $2.00n salary. The moral k
plain. Parser s Hair Balsa try gives a per
son a new face.
