We have heard no objection urged to the ticket. If we succeed in electing them our city will no doubt be well govern ed. It has been so heretofore, and we trust law and order will prevail in future. The people have selected, we bear a very good ticket. They could not have done otherwise, as we believe all those before them were good men and true. We seriously hope there will be no opposition to the present ticket. Let those whose friends were defeated in the nomination, unite witli Fires.—Sunday afternoon last, be tween sun set and dark the house of scy Morton a colored woman was itroyed by Are. Bhalost ,e of furniture, also thirty .It la slid that she had bought the house and paid all the debt except thirty dollars, which she intended to pay the following Monday, being the lost payment. She is again homeless. If sfoe is industrious and energetic, she will soon recover lost ground. The house was about two miles from the Engine. Fine Iifk.—Capt. Thomas Daniel laid on our table a few days since a phial of ink, with the request that we would give it a fair trial. We have done so, and unhesitatingly pronounce it superior to any we have ever used. It flows freely in the pen. A steel one can be used we hear until it wears off, without ever coroding. It is r ( he Captains Manufacture. We cuvise merchants and others to give it«. test. We have found it very hard to obtain good ink. Summey & Newton.—In passing the store of these gentlemen a few days we noticed a lot of those fine two-horse wagons had just been re ceived. We understand they Bell read ily. We have talked with several who have purchased them. They express ed themselves highly pleased. Any one wanting a first rate plantation wagon had better call at their store and take a look. THE CIRCUS. We are indebted to Mrs. Calhoun the wife of our friend who runs the En gine from Athens to Union Point, for a delightful slice of Wedding Cake.— Some of -the ladies of this- place seem determined to spoil us with their kind ness. Well! we always did love the fair sex, we can’t help it. We never knew one to do wrong. If they hap pen to err, its the fault of some brute of a husband. Wc would not injure oue of them in thought, word or deed. We would be glad to see Woodkull and Clafiin whip out Beecher & Co.— A Disappointed Man.—The other night there was service in one of our city churches.

By this time he had reached the church, and found to his surprise the church closed, everything dark, and nary lady to be found. Some gentleman seeing the “ Maiden all forlorn” had the pleasure of seeing her snfe home. Our friend left the church singing most dolefully “ Oh ! I’m a used up man. Calabash.—Our attention was call ed a day or two since to a large Cala bash. It held eight gallons of water, It was grown in Banks county. The owner brought some of . the seed to Athens for sale. He spoke of deposit ing them at Dr. King’s New Drug Store. On Monday last this court was thin ly attended. His honor had but little business on hand. One G. M. Chandler white /plead guilty to disor- deriy conduct and helped die city treasury to a V dollar William. T. M. Holbrooks gentleman in black. He too was disorderly, and anted up six dollars for the pleasure of being so. J. A. T. Caruthers, white was charged with shooting in the city limits. His honor, thought Caruthers ought to pay something for his sporting pro pensities and charged four dollars. This was the last case on docket | I Pork Hogs ! Pork Hogs !—A fine lot of Pork Hogs are now at Wyly F. Hood’s lot. They will be sold in lots to suit purchasers, either gross or net. They are fat and fine. The killing dressing etc., of the hogs will be under the superintendence of Col. J. Wilker- son. \ . ;■ J. H. Huggins. Wedding Cake.—Mrs. James England will accept our thanks for a piece of very hartdsome wedding cake. We regret exceedingly that we .were uuable to attend the nuptials of her daughter. At the Jefferson Court. - New Stove.—In passing Jones’ Tin More yesterday, we noticed a very handsome stove he had built to order. Hie name it bears will give it a place in the house of every true Georgian. he Howell Cobb. The stove is hand- . omely gotten up, well finished, neat in appearance, and will be nn orna ment in the house. Give-Jones a call, i jou want a good stove, and one bearing a name that i s a part of the history of the State. , Eitzooty.—-This disease is in our city. We understand there is a drove of horses here, fourteen of which have it good. The following is said to be a remedy for this disease. ‘ A fever pill, composed of cam phor, nitre, ginger and flax seed meal, at the beginning of the disease, is use ful in moderating Ohe fever, and na ture seems to point to the repetition of it afterwards, when there is a disposi tion to sweating. Nothing likewise is found so successfully to mitigate the cough as a gentle opiate at night” Meeting of Fire Company.—We regret our inability to accept the kind invitation of Capt Bishop to attend the meeting of the Fire Company last night. It would have afforded us great pleasure to do so, but we were com pelled to be in our office until a late hour in the night. The Captain has been very kind in asking us to the meetings, but unfortunately for us, they take place on Thursday nights, at which time we are generally very busy. * True to appointment John Robin son's circus appeared in oar city. We peyer saw a people more eager for a show. As soon as the ticket office was opened crowds rushed to it to purchase their entrance to the canvass. - The streets were crowded from an early hoar in the morning with scores of whites, horses and mules, niggers and mares. About one o’clock the doors of the Menagerie were opened, and in rushed the crowd, to gaze, wonder and ask questions. The first thing pre sented itself to view was a huge ele phant, then came the camels, then a three horned ox, with various other animals in the ring- The cages con tained a great variety of animals, birds, <£c., among other things the stuffed skin of a Giraffe, (not so stated in the bills.) The menagerie was excellent, containing numerous rare sights, many that had never been seen here before. After viewing the animals, we entered the circus tent, the grand entry soon made its appearance—it was anything but grand, after riding a short time in the ring they disappeared. This was followed by a single rider, who fell from his horse nearly every time lie at tempted to leap a canvas or jump a hoop. We are not disposed to do the cquistrian injustice, and think the falls were more the fault of the horse than the rider, the horse appeared to have the fashionable disease, and moved too sluggish and slow for the quick motion of the rider. Then came a very pretty girl, she rode well, her figure was fine, and she. exceedingly graceful in every move, she leaps the canvas with great activ ity and ease. The leaping and vault ing of the company cannot be excelled. The performance of the little dogs sur prised the spectators, it was well done. It was stated in the ring that eight thousand tickets had been sold for the mornings performance, the canvas was crowded so full that it was unpleasant, there was not a square foot of ground unoccupied. There was at least four thousand spectators, some say five thousand. The company performed in the even ing to about fifteen hundred or two thousand persons. Mr. Reaves kindly offered us a seat at night in his omni bus to ride over to the Depot to again witness the show, for which he will ac cept our thanks, his omnibus is very comfortable, and the team a fine one, particularly the off leader, a gay, gal lant horse. There was seated in the omnibus two very' pretty and interest ing young ladies, to whom we are in debted for passing a delightful evening. The night performance was about the same as in the afternoon. Some com plain that Robinson did not cany out the promised programme. The museum advertised was not shown at all, it is said it was not taken from the Railroad cars. We were sorry’ the performance was not better, we have known Robin son for many years, he is a Southern man and a clever gentleman, and we must do his company the justice to say they’ were strictly ladies and gentlemen. In fact we never saw a travelling company, whose manners and general deportment were more pleasant and agreeable. The equestrianism not be ing better, was probably, owing to the sickness of the horses. We have en deavored to give an honest and candid statement. “ Nothing extenuate, nor aught set down in malice.” * mm- -oFsasTM Atlanta Herald.—We call par ticular attention to the advertisement of tin Atlanta Herald, in this weeVs issue. It will bo seen that Mr. E. EL Jones is the agent in our city for 'this excellent daily. The Herald is full of news, most ably edited, very interest ing and well printed. Those who de sire a first-class paper from thecapital, had better give Mr. Jones a call and subscribe early. The Legislature will soon be in session, and from the Her*, aid you will get all the proceeding^.— Mr. Grady’s capacity as an editor is too well known to require a word from us. The daily is published at $10 per annum; the weekly at 82. Agricultural College. 11 ■ The following counties are represen t- ■■ cases' ed in fee State College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts: Baldwin, Jefferson, Bartow, Jones, Bibb, Lincoln, Brooks, Macon, Bulloch, Marion, Burke, Merriwcther, Carroll, Mitchell-, Clarke, Monroe, Chatham, Morgan, Chattahoochee, Muscogee, Clinch, Oglethorpe, Cobb, Pike, Coweta, Pulaski, Crawford, Quitman, Decatur, Richmond, Dekalb, Scriven, Dooly, Spalding, Dougherty, Schley, Emanuel, Stewart, Franklin, Sumter, Floyd, Terrell, Fulton, Taylor, Gwinnett, Troup, Hall, Upson,' Hart, Walton, Hancock, Washington, Houston, Warren, Jackson, Webster, Jasper, Wilkes. „'* . . 1 [COMMUNICATED.] Chemical Laboratory—-University of * Georgia. -p: _i; : ~\-V, : Editors North-EastGeorgian :—Nov. 25th, 1872.-—An examination has been made under my direction by Messrs. A. J. McMullen and J. N. Fitzgerald, students in this Laboratory, of several Illuminating (Ms offered for sale in Athens, to determine the temperature at which the vapor arising from thfi Oil, .when mixed with air, would ex plode. One sample of “Aitral Oil* and six samples of “ Kerosene ”, were examined, with the following result: : Astral Oil exploded at 116° F ...Kgrosene, Nix 1, “ *• 90° F • “ *2, “ “ 88° F ' “ “ 3, “ ¥ 88° F ** 4, 4 ‘ “ 79° F “ “ 5, “ “ 75° F - “ ” 6, “ “ 70° F Ty the official regulations of the U. S. Government, such Oils are con demned as dangerous that explode be low the temperature of 110° F. It would be well for our merchants to exercise great care in the purchase of these fluids. Very respectfully, H. C. WHITE, , s ,, Prof of Chemistry. We learn that a merchant, or some one else, was arrested in Atlauta, for selling oil that would not bear the test, and was fined one hundred dollars. A MAS SHOT. Capt. Jeremiah Holms, an old mariner, died Saturday in Stonington. He sprat most ' of his life at sea and was captured several times by priva teers. He commanded the guns a Stonington when it was besieged if the British in 1814, and through his means the floet was driven off. The total number of Students in the State College, this term is 127. Their average age on regeristing was 18 years and 9 months. Each county in the State is entitled to send one student to this institution, so we understand. Those counties not represented had better take ad vantage and send a young man for ward. The advantages to them are incalculable. • Large Store.—In passing down Broad street the other day we noticed the store of Jacobs & Micheal greatly enlarged. The partition we spoke of not long since has been removed.— They now occupy a wide and lengthy room. One capable of holding an im mense quantity of goods. They tell us they intend to fill it. We see too they have employed Mr. Franklin as a clerk, about as good an investment as they could make. He is a business man, and one well calculated to carry custom to a store- Express Omc r.—Our thanks are ' . Ex Press Offic of this City for l0,r k'lduess in receiving and sending «s several small packagoafreeof charge. Diere is not an Express Office in the * tatp better conducted than the one bl- tated - hpre., !Tbe ofpeers are attentive T* anfl gentlemanly m their deportment, and as far as we l general .satisfaction.

Mr. Niblack clerk of the court for hjjs kindness in fiirniahing us with a state ment of the ijibove cases. We regret tha(our space is too limited to publish thfe' names of the jurors. ' If nothing, happens to prevent we will with great pleasure, attend the hanging of these devils incarnate. An Epizootic Warning.—A man by the name of Becker, who resides near Quaryville, N. Y., owned a couple of horses that had the distemper. In cleaning out the mangers the other day the virus came in contact with a flesh wound on his hand. In a short time his hand and arrae became so terribly inflamed and swollen that they had to be amputated. Soon after the ampu tation he died. Persons owning horses cannot exercise too much prudence in this respeet, as the matter from this distemper is rank poison to the human system. Tiie Chickasaws.—St. J^ouit, November 22.—Reliable advices from the Chickasaw Nation says that the Legislature of the nation, which has just adjourned, passed a resolution re questing President Grant to carry into effect that part of the treaty of 1866, between the United States and the Choctaws and Chickasaws, which pro vides that when the Indians desire it the lands heretofore held in common may be divided among the individual members of tribes. This is considered by those best in formed regarding matters in the Indian Territory as the most advanced step towards civilization ever known by any ot the Indian tribes, and it is thought by a great many that should the Gov ernment not insist on any Territorial organization oilier than that now ex isting, many <*f the tribes will follow that of the Chickasaws. A. negro who was suspected of surrep titiously medling .with his neighbor's fruit, being caught in a garden by moonlight, nonplussed his detectors by raising his eyes, elapsing his hands, and piously exclaiming; “ Good Lord! dls yere darkey can’t go nowhere to pray any more wedont being ’sturbed.” —■ A young lady tripped lightly across the street, and was in the act of speaking to a male acquaintance, when a rude boy ran np and, holding up a bundle of papers, cried out, “Miss, you, ve dropped your readin’ rnem,” and shied imme. diatly around the corner. Mrs. Minnie Myrtle Miller, neglect ed wife of “Joaquin” the “ poet of the Serras” lectured in Ban Francisco, and treated her renegade husband’s name and fame to a choice bit of womanly satire. Her praise of Joaquin may be compared to Mexican liniment, it takes the skin. Horace Greeley.—There is a rumor that Greeley is crazy. He may be, but he is not half as crazy as the Baltimore Convention was when they nominated him, or as the rest of that supported him. Falling From Grace.—Wedes- dny night the colored Sexton of the colored Baptist church of this city, Jeffebson Court.—-A young man lifted a ham out of one of the stores np by the name of Carter was tried at Jef- town. He was followed by one of the fersan «£rt ftiiuba kjllfog ofa person police, who arrested him near the Post by the name of Pool, both white.-- Carter was acquitted. * Crawford Norwood and Stephen Dunson, persons of color were tried for rape, found guilty and will lie hung at Jefferson bn the 10th day of January 1873. Kinney Burns, and Lewis Pace col ored men, were also tried for rape, and will be hung on Friday the 10th day of January 1873. Frort! what we hear the decission of the juiy in the above cates were in accordance with the law and the facte. The jury were composed of good and just men. They did their duty. When guilty of such crimes as. the prisoners were they ought to suffer the extreme penalty of. e law. The ladies whose persons Were violated by these devils are said mon ' Jo be highly respected; and of excellent We return our thanks to Office. He acknowledged the theft, paid fear dollars, restored the bam to the aWncr v lo8t his reputation for hon esty, and i went auppedess to bed. “ The wayibf the transgressor is hard.” The w ca t h e r, after several days being warm and cloudy has cleared off cold and windy.

Fill ed with interesting tides, good poetry, general- news, Ac. It is published weekly, at Chicago, by Waters* Co., at 83 per annum. ' It is cheap for the Auctions.—Saturday night Capt. Gailev sold various articles at Auction. The Millegeville Fire.— The Union and Recorder, estimates the loss at over $100,000, of which $75,000 was in buddings. There were .five stpjrss under the hotel, contajuining something over $30,000 in goods which •were lost without insurance. The Atlauta Constitution after giv ing some items of news from our paper says: We regret that we fail to receive the Georgian regularly, as we regard it as oue among the best of our weekly exchanges. Thank you brother for the compli ment, we will try hard in future to send you the Georgian regularly. Kind words from such papers as the Constitution are very gratifying. We will endeavor to publish a paper that will meet with the approval of all. That Paduch Sensation.—We learn from good authority that the particulars ofthe case, given in a late number of the Kentuckian, were' cor rect, and that the man, accompanied by the girl and her mother, left in a boat and went down the river. The girl was only fourteen years old, and the man who committed the awful crime is a married min, and one ofthe wealthiest men in the city. While he can escape public vengeance, the poor girl must be forever stamped by public opinion as unfit to associate with nice people, and the man who caused her disgrace can walk God’s green earth with a high head, ready to pounce upon some other innocent, girl and drag her down to degradation and ruin. If a poor man had have been guilty of such a terrible crime he would have been suspended from the limb ofthe nearest tree.—Ky. Demo crat- 'V J Griffin was excited this evening No vember 27th, by the reception of news that a “ difficulty” had occurred near the city between Col. A. W. Walker and two young men named Wells, be tween whom a feud had existed for sometime.' ‘ * “ • • •' From all that can be learned, it ap pears that Colonel Walker had started on his Way homeward and was followed by the brothers Well, who abused him violently and finally threatened to whip him. '' Colonel Walker, it is said, made ev ery effort to avoid trouble by remon strating with the young men and urg ing them to leave him alone. At length the Messrs. Wells, alighting from the boggy in which they were seated, advanced towards Colonel Walker, as if for the purpose of put- ting into execution the threats of whip ping him which they had already made. As they approached him, Colonel Walker drew a revolver and leveling it, fired. The bullet struck Thomas Wells, penetrating the bowels. Colo nel Walker then leveled the weapon at the oilier brother and pulled the trig ger,- but fortunately it missed fire.— The contestants then separated without further bloodshed. Young Wells was taken home where be now lies in a very critical condition, His. physicians have examined his wound and pronounced it mortal, and his death is expected at any moment, To-night Judge Greene, who has been holding court here, is reported to have sent after Walker. The tragic affair is deeply regretted by all in this county, as all the parties concerned were in fair standing in the community. Out or the Fire.—A Boston let ter of the 17th says: The most inter esting locality among the ruins to-day, and one to which hundreds were at tracted by the operations there in pro gress, was the rear of the store of Messrs. Shrcave, Crump & Low. Be neath the sidewalk was a brick vault fifteen feet long, ten feet wide and ten feet deep, which contained between $75,000 and $100,000 worth of silver, including the altar service belonging to Trinity Church, a portion of the sacramental silver of the Brattle Square Church, a service of silver presented to Colonel William Aspinwall by the merchants of London, whose names, inscribed thereon, include those of George Peabody, Baring Brothers, and othera, a pitcher presented by Daniel Webster to Peter Harvey, and other mementoes, besides silverware belong ing to the firm. The goods were placed there after the fire was got under on Summer street, the vault being con siderCd the most safe place in the neighborhood. When the bu was blown up by the explosion of gas, at least two hundred tons of granite were piled upon the top of the vault. When fee rain fails, does it evcr ! rise again t Yes, in dew tiine.

His yearly income is $50,500,000, and he has twenty-five richly-furnished palaces, within the walls of Cairo. He is vastly more progressive than the Sultan, the Turkish master; is rapily extending his dominions, building railroads, and making commercial improvements, and will ultimately become indepeh- det of Turkish dominion. He 1 is . at present making arrangements for the connection of a railroad up feo Nile to Dongola, and thence acros* the desert to Loudan, which country he will make one of his own provinces.
