BONDS TO THE COLLEGE.
The voters of the city nrc called
upon to decide on Thursday, the 20th,
whether or not they will authorize the
Council to issue Bonds t<> construct n
building for the College of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts. The first ques
tion which naturally occurs, is if we
issue the Bonds how much are we t<
he taxed ? In answer to our inquiries
we learn that the additional tax will
be one-eighth of one per cent., or 12£
cents on eaeli hundred dollars worth
of property, that is liable to taxation
It is plain then, that those who possess
iin propelty will have no tax to pay
and that in a large majority of cases
what is paid, will he an extremely
small amount.
But what advantage will accrue to
the city from this small appropriation
It will render the College more proma
nent and more efficient. An increase
of two or three hundred students ami
additional Professor*, will bring into
our town annually, from one hundred
to two hundred thousand dollars, all of
which will he expended here for cloth
iiig, provisions, etc. This increased
populatoin will create a demand for
buildings, enhance the value of real
estate, give employment to the me
chanics, and add 10 all the various
branches of trade. We urge our citi-
y.cn« to give the measure their cordial
support.
STATE GEOLOGIST.
The question of a State Geologist is
again mooted by the Georgia Legisla

interest to the State at tills juncture,

of the State, recording her entire
geological and climatic features.

Passing a smith’s shop yesterday
this reporter saw a blacksmith busy at

According to late science in these
times rasping has bee done away with.
Experience teaches the fact that rasp
ing takes off the strong surface
from the hoof, the tough horn, and
the result is tl-at after a while in
shoeing the font will split a little at the
nails, and very often in driving the
nail it punches a piece out before it.

H ANS EGEDE—The Fatherland Rories.—
From tbe German. Philadelphia:
Lutheran Board of Publication. For
sale by Burke & Hodgson, Athens, Gn.
We have received, front Messrs.
Burke & Hodgson, a very neatly bound
book, with the above title.-It is a
very interesting narrative of the call,
departure, arrival, trials and adven
tures of Hans Egede and his lovely
wifeand children, Missionary to Green
land. Its description of the trials and
hardships suffered by this devoted
family and their followers among the
bestial natives and inhospitable climate
of that frigid country is interesting,
instructive and historical, and will be
found a source of interest to any one,
no matter what their-age. The book
is well printed, and when onoe taken
up, it will lie found difficult to lay it
aside until the end is reached. It
speaks of the arrival of the missionary
and followers on the icc-bound coast,
the objects of the different inviduals iu
takingthc journey, of their unsuccessful
attempts to speak to the natives, of
their privations, auflering for food,
dangers on the waters, desertion by the
ship, attack by the natives,, who are
routed,by Hans Egede wfilROjit the
shedding of blood, and how, at last,
stores and ships arrive, and, in spite of
all opposition, a permanent settlement
is established, and the Gospel infused
among the ignorant natives, until now,
one-half that barbarous country how
down to the one and only God.
LUTIIER AX!) THE BIBLE.—By T.
St.viiks, D. D. Philadelphia; Lutheran
Board of Publication. For sale by
Burke & Hodgson, Athens, Ga.
We arc also indebted to Messrs.
Burke & Hodgson for the above book,
handsomely bound in cloth, and print
ed in plain, clear type of the latest
style. It is a narrative of the life and
works of Luther, the great Reformer,
and will lie fouud very instructive and
interesting. The preface says, “ it is
not the object of these pages to extol
Luther, hut to magnify the word of
God.” The work is well written, and
laying aside all other merits, the fact of
its being a history of the Great Refor
mation and Doctrine of Martin Luther,
which has become a part of the his
tory of the world, should claim for it
a place in every library in the country.
The Ili.ustratedFi.oral Work,
published quarterly by Briggs & Bro
ther, Rochester, N. Y., has reached
us promptly, and is a “thing of beauty”
as well as a publication filled with
valuble information for tbe benefit of
such as delight is the culture of flowers,
Plants and Vegetables. The work em
brace 136 pages of matter relating to
their growth and culture, including a
full list of eleven hundred varieties of
seed sold by the firm. Many of the
illustrations are beautiful. All in all,
we regard the January Quarto of Briggs
& Brother as the acme of perfection in
this line, and far beyond all its com
petitors. Since the issue of the Floral
Work as a Quarterly, the people are
able to obtain the four numbers for the
same price as formerly charged for the
Annual. The purchaser of one dollar’s
worth or over of seeds is credited with
a subscription for the following year.
Even those who think they do not want
Flower or Vegetable Seeds, Bulbs or
Chromos, could make no better invest
ment than to inclose to Briggs & Bro
ther, Rochester, N. Y., twenty-five
cents and secure this elegant Flor a ]
Work.
DIED,
ON Friday morning, February 7th, at hi* reii-
dence in Atl.en*, G«., Mr. WATKINS BAYNON,
aged «eT«nty-*Ix yean. The deceased was a naUve
of Wales. When a boy of five yean ho came to
the United State*, and grew up in New Jersey.
About the par 1817 he settled In Greensboro, Ga.,
teed there several years, then removed to this
city, and was a resident of Athens for forty-three
years. For upwards of forty years he was a mem
ber of the I’resbyterian Church. Ho lias left be
hind the record of an upright and blameless life.
Shut out from intercourse with Ha fellow men to
a great extent by the loss of his hcariug, he min
gled hut little with the busy world for several
years. As bis end drew near, his iaith shone out
amid his severe sufferings. Hi* death was peace.
To his family, whom he loved, to his many friends
and acquaintances who survive him, the language
of his departure is, “Be ye also ready, for In such
an hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh.”

A Good . Investment.—We call
that a good investment which tends to
increase the prosperity of our town by
rendering it more desirable as a place
for residence and business. Whatever
attracts population of mechanics brings
additional capital and thus, all classes
are henefitted. Nothing rendered a
place so attractive as superior educa
tional facilities. Hence we regard the
College Bond appropriation the best
investment that can be made for the
same amount ot money, and we are
sustained in this, by the liberal exam
ple of the other places; as Amherst
Mass., give 875,000, Lexington, Ky.,
§100,000, and some places S300,000
and even §400,000, according to the
publication of Prof. Broun, to estab
lish similar Colleges iu their midst.

of the University of Naples, has twice
performed the operation of transfusion
of blood direct from the artry of
lamb, is experiencing benefit from it.
The professor has been requested to
send an account of this important op
eration to the Medical Scientific Aca
demy of Paris and also to that of St.
Petersburg.
The Seguin (Texas) Times gives an
account ot a gentleman who dissected
a horse that died with the epizeotic
disease. The gentleman had a slight
fracture on his hand, which absorbed
some of the matter from the throat of
the horse. It produced inflammation,
which extended up the arm, making
amputation necessary and endin,
finally in the death of the gentleman.
A brave honest old Mississippi plan
ter, Mr. Job H. Curtis, wrote recent
ly to a New Orleans creditor as fol
lows; “I owe you an old debt.
When tho war closed I closed with it,
and could not pay you. I am sixty-
nine years old, and have hard struggle
to get along; hut now I am happy to
say that I can spare you one hale of
cotton, and will ship it ns soon as I
ran carry it to town. When sold
place proceeds to my credit.
