Williams, Ksq., the regular nominee for Representative from Jackson county.— We have no doubt Imt Mr. W. will mak< a mqst fxerlirut Irgi-i'ntor; and hope that *I«B dtikeM ot that county will see the necessity of unity of action in the impor tant election about to take place. fore, as a matter of economy and con venience, we need a Fair, and have ; «r i rum., oa the Main determined to have a goo 1 one., Thig js no selfish enterprise. It is not confined to Clarke county alone.— We most cordially invite every man, woman and child in Northeast Geor gia to come to it, an 1 if they have any thing they wish to exhibit, they will be allowed every nriyelige that a citizen of this county will have. This is only the beginning of an en terprise that we hojie will assist in placing our farmers, mechanics, man ufacturers and stock raisers in a posi tion to be entirely independent of the We torn producer or Northern manu facturer. Every thing will be done to interest and improve, while nothing will be al- lowtd cn the grounds that will have tut immoral effect. At the same time there is ample provision to plei.-e all. Provision lias even been made for that nio^t miserable and pitiable of all classes of men, the old Bachelor, in the way of a Baby Show, which will come uii the last day. Tltis will be a rare treat. * Plenty of good music may be ex pected. li.iiioous sent up each day of the Fair.

Colonel Peeples paid a high tribute to our able Coventor, .Tames M. Smith. Ue said that they had practiced law to gether. slept together, and went togeth er. and he always found him to lie a high-toned, honorable gentleman. He was no sycophant, but a plain, matter- of-tact gentleman, with an unsurpassed intellect. We wish we had it in our power to give the mlilress of Colonel Peeples in full, as it was one of the most able and eloquent, as well as the most opportune, speeches we have ever hud the pleasure of listening to, and one w.liicli should lie read l>y every voter. Il is impossib'e, in this brief synopsis, to give a correct idea of its great merits ' We hope tie* honorable gentleman can lie prevailed upon to give the citi zens of Athens another feast of intellect at no distant day.

The Herald is among our most -[lriirlitlv exchanges, and we wish he publishers success in their enterprise 8.'EECIt OP Cod. C1.SC1NX.UT S PEEP. ES. A large concourse of our citizens were preset:! at the Court House, on Wtdues- uay night hist, to listen to tin- ndrbcss '*.<■ the Hon. t INCINNATCS pEEPI.Es, of thuitn, and it more intelligent, atli ntne end orderly audience we have never seen ii.-sen b. -d together. At the appointed hour the sp.-aker appeared, and inn introduced to the t.idiuice by o.onei a. i’. Thurman. Colonel Pemn.es c imnicnced ills ud- ■ddress by saying that he scarcely tell ible to make a public speech.

But the- Honorable gentle man had not proceeded very lar ere be p icared to entiielv torget his suffering, aiiel gave his entire mind to the great jtieatinns to lie discussed lie said a gentleman ot this city—and one whom lie esteemed very highly— wanted to know, that evening, tf. which • wing of the I bid icut jxirty did Colonel Peeples belong Jle would let that gentleman know that he (lid tint belong l" either " wing of I In- Radical party;" that he was a member o." the Democratic party. Whereupon the speaker proceed ed to draw a very eloquent and forcible comparison between the gentlemen who supports Horace Greeley for President and the members ot that most corrupt ND icn Pfc.vril.— Yesterday about dark t negro man by the name of Greon England, fell dead tip town.

I.rcY (.’oun Institute.—T'ti ; far famed an 1 Nourishing institution has again com menced its session with we understand, d'cut eighty students. There is perhaps no institution in the State that affords greater facilities for young ladies to ac quire a tirst-elass education. Athens has long been celebrated for its r -fined and intelligent society, its numer ous cluir.'hes and its healthy climate.— Parents desirous of giving their daugh ters every advantage, can find no better place than this. f! organization, the Radical party. In the course ot his address the speak er spoke in high terms of the late Hon. -. L. Vai.i.aXDIgiiam, who he said was he originator ot the Liberal lit iiuloieult | movement. He spoke of h.s gw at i • neiid'hip to Hie Smith during the late ! w ir, and wanted to know who among us would brand such a man as that with the stigma of Radicalism—lie saw the condition ot the country, and knew such a movement as the one made in Cincin nati and endorsed in Baltimore was the only salvation for the South. Such men ns Colquitt and Bennino saw the situ ation at a glance, and accepted it in good spirit. Colonel Peeples wanted to know if there was a man present who suspicioncJ these tried old veterans with l>eing actuated by any but the purest of motives ? Th -ir characters were above reproach. He referred to the charge made by the "• Straight-Outs,” that the ; members of the Baltimore Convention had sold their country to the Radical party. Who would charge that grey- liaircd soldier, Bennino, with selling his country to any party ? The very idea of such an assertion was laughable in the extreme. Personal.—Yesterday we had the pleasure of receiving a call at our office from our highly esteemed friend. Col. B. C. Yancey. The Col. has charge of tin Plantation', published in Atlanta, one junoag the la-st agricultural papers in c.r out ot the State. It is. like everythin, else he does, exactly right. Editor of the N. E. Georgian : I hn\*e before me Mr. Chris'v’s re ply to “ Democrat” the letter and spirit of which by no means bespeak the gentleman. It is true that I wrote OA’or a “ ficticious signature” but I did not do so in order to shrink the re- sponsibility that the piece might bring ujlhi me. My sole reason in not alhxibg my own signature to it Avas that 1 did not Avish to up;-ear officious in the matter. lu the first paragraph -Air. Guristy states that there avus ** hold fraud practiced in tiie conven tion ot the lot it wh.cn assertion i un qualifiedly coutiadiet, and I cLudengt proof to the contrary. In reference to my supposing that Mr. Christy advised the call lor an- otner meeting, my reasons are these— 1st I kite a- that he Avas dissatisfied with the action of the convention—2nd his editorial was in spirit an endorsement f the call. I leave it to any reus ma nle mind to judge as to Avhether I was not justifiable in supposing him a party :o the call. In ju-ti ication of- myself I would state my reasons for supposing Mr. Christy present at the convention ol sept. 7. 1st, 1 knew that he was ap pointed a delegate to that convention. 2nd during the coiiA'cntion I arose t • m vo that the delegates to the Game. - ville convention be appointed then and there, but before the Avords escaped my lips another member advised nte not to make the motion as Mr. Christy ai d >tliersob e ted. fr 11 co iscienicous- ly believed at the time the piiece Avas written that I -aw Mr. Christy at the convention. Noav as to Mr. Christy’s denial of b ing present I candidly concede to him that point ns I have found out that I Avas mistaken, hut I claim, as 1 made no positive assatiun as to his being there, that the manner in Avhich he has answered is unjust ungenerous and ungentle manly. Mr. Christy stales that he advised that the delegates should not be ap- pointed nt the time the nominations Avere made, but that he did not advi-e Dr. Carlton to make the announce ment at the time and place that he did. In reply to this I Avould simply say that it narrows itself down to a ques tion of veracity betAveen Dr. Carlton ttud Mr. Christy far proof of which Ave copy from Dr. Calton’s article to the Atlanta Han upon the same subject this paragraph. It was called as a “ Moss Meeting” instead of a delegate meeting by myself after consultation with, and by the advise of several gentlemen, among Avhom Avas Mr. Christy, the editor of the Watrhman, who aho <ulci*cd that the call be pub- THE LADIES. HcaA*en31 Let all ladies wbo were deceitful locks read what The Bridish Medteal Journal tells usabout false hair! There is a M. Liuderaan who has given his mind to this subject, and Avho announces that every hair in a false plait ends with “a nodosity,” each nodosity contains fifty “ psoros- permsaud each psorospernt throws otf minute, spheres which become “ pseudo-uavicellas.'’ But this is by no means the end of a bad matter. The pseudonavicellse in a ball-room contain- ing fifty ladies, all with the spurious teudrils, amount to 45,000,000, which, wheu inhale l, make their vray into the circulation and bring on cardiac affections! This is too bad; but then doesn’t real hair soinotimes pro duce cardiac atlectious?—Jiew York T. ibune. A club of Boston ladies are hard at work endeavoring to obtaiu the pas sage of a city ordinance providing that all tobacco chewers shall be muzzled Avhen on the street. A lady living at Greenville, Mass., disappeared suddenly from her home a few days ago, much to the grief of her husband aud friends. They were comforted shortly afterward by receiv ing a letter from ti:e lady stating that she bad merely left home that she might be better appreciated by her family when she returned. No hoopskirts are uoav to be seen in the streets of Paris. The Empress Elizabeth of Austria h u written to the Avoman’s-right’s club i i Vienna: “ Ladies, Jake my advice aad keep away from p tliaes. Tueir .s nothing but misery in it.” It Avill be interesting to the ladies to know that theex Empress Eugenie now dresses almost entirely in red and black, and that her beautiful hair is beginning to show threads of silver. A young lady says that a gentleman might never feel discouraged Avhen the momentous question is negatived by the object of his choice, “ for in life, as in grammar, Ave ahvays decline before Ave conjugate.” MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS In Consequence of the ahsenoe of one of the Proprietors of tins paper, on an- cotmt df sickness in his family, aa'c find it very difficult to get throuah with our work this week.

My udstake was an honest oue. There Avas no willful perversion of facts, but still he accuses me Avith bull dog feroc ity of making false allegations. Mr. Christy says that he can “ safely af firm that he has done more to build •up the party than any other man in the county or district.” Well itnmy be that he has, but it is the first time that I have ever heard this high compliment paid him and 1 am astonished even to see it emanate from himself. His delicacy and mod esty would certainly adorn the charac ter of agirl of lifteeu summers. “ We ha\-e given “ Democrat the Union with open arms. He was the first man to s'ep forward and sign the I rood Avitli Mr. D.wts, although he knew at tire time it would seriously m- jnre him with the Northern masses; that Mr. Greeley is and always 'vns a con sistent politician, and he believed his election is the only hope for the South ern people. In the course of his remarks Colonel P. related a couple ol very amusing and uallv merit.” \Vedi.-tinctly avow, that prominence coming from such a source Avould be but a burden morally and intellec tually. It is much unfeigned regret that I Avrite this article, but Mr. Christy has made use of expressions and epithets that deserve but one reply, and that is a blow which he-would rsc. vj if he Avas not so many years my senior.

The Atlanta Herald speaks of a carri age establishment in that city, which it siys is probably the largest in the State, working an average of twenty-five hands, witl: a we-klv pay-roll of $300.

V- .i u tn i.4 ,HBOiie _ i- adi . A{*«•» Hqav a President is Elected.— The question is often asked as to hoAV the President of the United States is elected. We will answer: Each State is entitled to as many electors for President and Vice Presi dent as it has Senators, and Reprcsen- tatives in Congress. Hence Pennsyl- vania has twenty-nine electors. In each State the electors are chosen by a plurality vote. That L if there are three sets of electors voted for those having the highest number of A'otesare chosen. But a candidate for President, in order to be successful, must have a majority of the electors. If there be three candidates for the Presidency and none of them receive a majority of the Electoral College, there is no choice and the election goes to the House of Representatives. The House must confine their choice to the three highest candidates voted for by the electors. The Representa tives vote by States, and each State has but one vote; so the poAver of Delaware is as great as Pennsylvania. A candidate to be successful must re ceive a majority of all the States, or nineteen States.
