MY HUSBAND
BY M. D. L.
1.
What man is this I must obey,
Who, when I’d go, oft bids me stay,
And to my Yes says ever Nay t
My Husband!
а.
What one is this whose lordly soul
Is so impatient of control,
Lost his dear liberty be stole?
My Husband!
Who Is It frowns when bills come in,
And swears it is a shameful sin—
Through me he’ll soon be Buin's twin?
My Husband!
4.
When 1 feel cold, who’s ever warm,
And think a draught can do no harm—
Thus always causing me alarm ?
My Husband!
б.
And when my bones all ache with pain.
For which some nostrum I obtain,
Who calls me foolish, crazed, Insane ?
My Husband!
6.
Who is it thinks his angry brow
Must find an answering smile somehow ?
Temper in me he’ll ne’er allow.
My Husband!
7
And yet who is it I love so,
That If he bid me stay, not go,
I change my Yes to suit his No?
My Husband !
8.
What tho’ he Irown when bills appear,
Who buys the best for me to wear,
To pleaße me well, his greatest care ?
My Husband!
0.
And when I’m sick, tho’ he cant’ nurse,
Who’s ever ready with his purse,
And trembles lest I should grow worse ?
My Husband !
10
What though his anger sometimes rise—
Who keeps me for his loving eyes,
And shares with me both smiles and sighs ?
My Husband !
11.
Who such unscepter’d pow’r can wield,
To which I fond submission yield,
With his strong heart for’er my shield ?
My Husband!
12
Who is my sovereign here on earth—
Despite whoso faults, Is fully worth
The fondest love that e’er had birth ?
My Husband!

ORE AT RUSH OF VISITORS.
Arrival of Hon A. H. Stephens.
BRILLIANT PROSPECTS FOR THE COMMENCE
MENT EXERCISES.
Newton House, Aug. 2.
Editors Sun : We left Columbus yes
terday afternoon at half past two o’clock
and spent the night at Macon, where our
good friends, Messrs. Whelan and Meara,of
the National Hotel, made good provision
for our comfort. This morning at half
past six o’clock, feeling refreshed for
our journey, we found our way to the
depot, where an elegant car was in wait
ing for our party, in charge of a polite
and attentive conductor, Mr. J. B. John
son, brother of Supt. S. K. Johnson of
the Georgia Railroad, whose kindness we
were indebted for a through ride to this
city without chango of cars.
OUR TRAVELLING PARTY.
We could not have selected a more
delightful and agreeable party with which
to spend the day, than that which gathered
in this city, and which contained several
charming graduates of the Wesleyan
Female College, one of Columbus’ sweet
est daughters, and a fine blonde from
Sparta, whose bright eyes and auburn
hair are quite fascinating. We had Capt.
C. A. Redd, Homer B. Dozier, A. J. Orr,
Miss Leila Itedd, Miss Loula Dozier; Mrs.
N. M. Holt, Rev. Mrs. Hinton and Miss
Laura Willet, of Macon; Miss Florence
Wilson, of Sparta, and Mrs. Wilson; Miss
Minnie Jackson, of Macon, and Miss
Sadie Burge, of Oxford, the gifted young
lady who delivered the salutatory at the
late Commencement at Macon, and who
is dearly beloved for her rare virtues.
HON. ALEXANDER H. STEPHENS.
Our trip was a most social and delight
ful one, and we enjoyed ourselves to the
utmost. Sweet smiles and happy voices
made tho time pass rapidly away. The
car was very comfortabie, the conductors
polite, and the road in excellent running
order. At Crawfordville, where Liberty
Hall is located, we took on board the Hon.
A. H. Stephens, who is still on crutches
and in very feeble health indeed. Yet he
informed us that he had prepared his ad
dress in writing, and felt that he should
be able to meet the demands of the occa
sion. The address is of a purely literary
character, and will be delivered on Mon
day. Mr. Stephens was accompanied by
his Frivate Secretary, T. K. Oglesby, Esq.,
whom we found to he a most accomplished
and pleasant gentleman.
THE OROWD FROM ATLANTA.
ALUnion Point we formed a junction
wi! il v * -nd -I VM
ei’.n'i e..g„r pa.v><-Liters imuieu
aboard of our train, which now consisted
of nine cars. Among others from Atlanta,
we noticed Mr, Jas. W. Harris and his
lady, nee Miss Garrard, and a large num
ber of very handsome young ladies, and
President Niles of the Female College at
Griffin. From Columbus to Macon, on
yesterday, wo were troubled with peach
peddlers at every station, but to-day not
a single one was to he seen, and we need
not tell you that we were overjoyed when
Mr. James Brown, of Antioch, brother-in
law of Mrs. Holt, handed ns in at that
station a basket of tine peaches and pears.
All through this section the fruit crop was
destroyed in the spring.
ATHENS ALIVE WITH VISITORS.
We reached the depot here at half past
four o’clock, and found an almost count
less number of vehicles, of every descrip
tion. at the depot to take the passengers
up town. They were all soon filled, while
many persons went away on foot. As the
omnibus passed through the main street
we noticed that the sidewalks were full of
people, evidently strangers, and when
we arrived at the hotel we found
there a small army of young men and
students awaiting the arrival of friends
by the train just in. There were more
people here last night, we are told, than
were here last year during any day of the
Commencement Exercises. To-morrow a
still larger crowd than that which came
to-day, will arrive, bringing among others,
Geu. J. B. Gordon, United States Senator,
and H. W. Grady, Esq., of the Atlanta
Herald, whose wife is an Athens lady.
THE NEWTON HOUSE FULL.
The Columbus crowd is quartered at
the Newton House, nearly opposite the
University, where Mr. A. D. Clinard, the
popular proprietor, is sparing no efforts
to have everybody well provided for. The
house is full, but he is trying to make it
“fuller,” as some place must be found for
the vast crowd already here. The citizens
will be compelled to open wide their
hearts and homes and take the strangers
in who may come to-morrow, otherwise
they will be without food or shelter. Our
thanks are due Mr. Clinard for his great
kindness in keeping us a cool and quiet
little room, where we are now writing
those hasty lines, which we hope to get
off in a few moments on the return train.
We have not had time to wash off the dust
yet, so don’t find fault with our first
epistle from this honored seat of learning.
Sidney Herbert.
A Venerable Institution—A Scholary
Faculty-Distinguished Graduates—Mus
cogee County Students—Baccalaureate
Sermon—Chancellor’s Address.
Newton House, August 4, 1873.
Editors Sun : If the few readers of
your paper, who complain of our reports
from these Commencements, were only
here in Athens, they would soon see
enough to lead them to place a high value
upon such reports, even when they crowd
out the more exciting details of some hor
rid murder committed a thousand miles
away. The great hope of the South, to
day, is in her educational and industrial
enterprises, and the press cannot do too
much to aid the development of either.
Standing here in the presence of this
venerable University, crowned as it is
with the fruits and triumphs of seventy
two years, we feel that our voice and our
efforts have been too weak in setting forth
the claims of all similar institutions that
we have recently visited. An abler pen
than the one we wield should have per
formed the labor assigned to us in this
direction.
DISTINGUISHED GRADUATES.
Do you ask who and where are the men
whom the old Franklin College, the pres
ent University of Georgia, has sent forth
to bless *he world with their eloquence
and heir le u'.oag ? Wepiutit wi ; h pride
to e .ery department of public life aud
usefulness and say with a proud satisfac
tion “Behold them there.” What would j
Georgia be to-day without the noble sons
whom this time-honored institution cul
tured and sent forth armed and equipped
for life’s stem realities ? In all the pro
fessions ; at the head of our proudest in
stitutions of learning; foremost at the
bar and on the bench; in the legislative
hslls; presiding over our grandest indus
trial and agricultural enterprises, there
you will find thousands of men who point
back to this venerable and revered Uni
versity, as their beloved and honored al
ma mater , to whose wide-open doors they
still love to come year after year, on these
Commencement occasions, and worship
again at her altars, and bow once more at
her remembered shrines. There are gray
headed men, whose sons are now beneath
the same sheltering care that once watch
ed over their own intellectual culture, and
statesmen whose names have been honor
ed throughout the civilized world.
AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.
Shall we, then, neglect such institu
tions ? Can the press be silent in regard
to these yearly Commencement Exercises,
even though they may claim a half dozen
columns per day during their continuance?
We answer, most emphatically, No! By
the grand record which they have already
made for themselves in the training of
countless numbers of noble young men
and women, many of whom are to-day the
fathers and mothers of the gifted sons
and accomplished daughters whose success
our own pen has chronicled during the
past few weeks. We must turn the re
portorial pen away from bloody scenes
and prison cells—give less notoriety
to murder and murderers—and pay
greater attention to the young men and
the young women who are preparing
themselves, in our institutions of learning,
for lives of usefulness and honor. Look,
if you please, at the space oce . >ied by
our reports of the Wesleyan Female Col
lege at Macon ? Do they occupy as much
room as has been given to the sad Wal
worth murder case ? And yet they re
corded, aside from all other matters, the
graduating of thirty-eight beautiful and
accomplished young ladies. If these
young ladies live and take their proper
places in the world, they are to preside
over thirty-eight homes—rear children to
whom they will transmit their own intel
lectual culture and Christian characters.
Eternity alone can reveal the influence
that that class of thirty-eight gifted young
women is to exert in the world.
A SCHOLARLY FACULTY.
Few institutions of learning at the pres
ent day can boast of a more able and
scholarly Faculty than the one which pre
sides over the University of Georgia, and
at whose head stands the ltev. A. A. Lips
comb, D. D., L. L. D., who is too well
known in your city to need any word of
praise from ns in this connection. We
should also mention the honored name of
Rev. F. H. Mell, D. D., L. L.
D., a learned and eminent Baptist
divine, who is in charge of the de
partment of Metaphysics and Ethics.
Although the other members of the
Faculty are less known to fame, they
all are men of high character and well
cultivated minds. Prof. C. F. Willcox, of
the department of Modem Languages,
formerly resided in your city, and is a
brother of D. F. Willcox, Esq., of the
Georgia Home. There are thirteen de
partments of study, with a corps of pro
fessors numbering sixteen, which ensures
the most careful attention to all the nu
merous classes of the University.
STUDENTS FROM OUB VICINITY.
Os the students in attendance here,
ont of three hundred and twelve, two
hundred and ninety-one are from Georgia,
and eight from Alabama, leaving only
thirteen to be divided between seven
other States. Muscogee is represented
by B. F. Coleman, M. B. Hallenbeck, G.
A. Illges, W. A. Redd, C. Terry, Jr., and
B. S. Robinson, all of whom, except Illges
and Robinson, are in the State College
department, where agriculture, engineer
ing and applied chemistry are the promi
nent divisions of study, We also notice
in the catalogue the names of H. C, Bus
sey, Chattahoochee eounty; J. It. Gormley
and O. C. Bullock, Marion county; T. D.
Huff, Cusseta; A. C. Riley and N. H.
Brown, Fort Valley; D.I. Weaver, B. H. and
W. C. Worrell, Cuthbert; G. D. Hightower
and H. B. Everett, Lumpkin; R. B.
Barnes, Opelika, and W. G. Bibb, Mont
gomery, Ala.; J. L. Cleveland, Stewart
county; J. E. and J. H. Fitzgerald, Flor
ence; R. McGough, Glennville, Ala.; J.
G. Beasely, Russell county, Ala.
HONORS TO COLUMBUS STUDENTS.
In looking over the list of degrees and
honors conferred at the last commence
ment, it is very pleasant to notice that
Mr. C. J. Swift, of Columbus, was made
a Bachelor of Arts, and Professor G. R
Glenn a Master of Arts. On the “R«_l_
of Honor,” which includes “the first six j
in each of the junior classes distinguished
for scholarship,” are the names of L. H.
Chappell, of Columbus, and T. D. Huff,
of Cusseta. From the first four in senior
classes is the name of Professor G. R.
Glenn, distinguished for scholarship. We :
have no means of knowing what honors
or rewards await our boys this year, but j
hope that all of them will not go away
empty-handed, and none of them empty
headed. There is good material here, and
we hope to see it display its power during
the next few days in a manner that shall
prove creditable to your city and vicinity.
Mr. T. D. Huff, of Cusseta, who is a
nephew of Capt. T. E. Blanchard, was a
“Roll of Honor” student last season, and
is one of the speakers and a graduate
iiiis jtu:. auu we m.pe to he able to give
you a good report of his oration.
BACCALAUREATE SERMON.
Owing to the ill health of Bishop Beck
with, the sermon was preached on yester
day morning by Rev. Alexander J. Drys
dale, Rector of Immanuel Church in this
city, who took for his text a portion of
the seventeenth verse of the second chap
ter of the First Epistle of Peter : “ Fear
Ood." The discourse was a most eloquent
and forcible defence of the existence of a
great First Cause. The wonderful pres
ence of the Almighty was shown in all his
created works, in the history of the hu
man race, and in the plan of salvation.
We are to fear Him only in that sense
in which love and reverence for His laws
and demands shall keep us from displeas
ing Him by a reckless disobedience of
them, and a careless disregard of their
just claims. We cannot, finally, escape
the conviction that there is a God. All
efforts to avoid this result will fail us.
Sooner or later, be assured, the Almighty
will find out every human being, and say,
“Son of man, where art thou?” He is om
nipresent and omniscient, and not a tear is
shed, not a sigh is heaved, not a sparrow
falls to the earth, that escapes his notice.
Over all and around all, is the protecting
care aud fostering love of God. The
preacher eloquently commended the love
of God—as the true foundation of the
fear of God—to the members of the Sen
ior Class, upon whom he sought to im
press a sense of duty in regard to this
matter. The sermon was an able produc
tion, very appropriate to the occasion,
and was delivered with great energy and
1 evident sincerity of purpose. As it was
listened to wilh marked attention, we
have reason to think it will not be fruit
less.
THE CHANCELLOR’S ADDRESS.
At the close of the sermon, after the
singing of a “University Hymn,” Chan
cellor Eipscouib delived the Baccalaureate
Address to the Graduating Class, thirty
one in number, who remained standing
before the platform during its delivery.
His theme was a sense of duty based upon
common sense. Everything noble and
true in life and endeavor, he declared,
must spring fromasense of duty. Outside
of Christ there is nothing to live for,
nothing to aspire to. Everything must
tend to aud centre in Him. All culture
must be based upon His model. Genius
cannot trample a religious faith under
foot and build its temple upon the ruins
of that faith. That young man who flat
j ters himself that he is to succeed in life
j by his brilliant intellectual culture, inde
! pendent of the grace of God in his heart,
! is hugging a delusion that will lead him
j to his final ruin. Success by the way of
pure Christian Faith is the only sure and
safe pathway to usefulness and honor.
! Dr. Lipscomb, in conclusion, commended
| most earnestly the use of good common
sense,a thingsorare among even cultivated
minds, that the world is full of failures
on account of it. It is a very important
element of character, and one that eve ,
young man should obtain, and make a
good use of in laying the foundation of
his success in life. The speaker alluded
to the fact, a sad but true one, that we, as
a people, like the Hemlock, are dying at
the top. The ignorant classes are ceasing
to be the dangerous classes, for vice and
infidelity have boldly claimed a place in
the ranks of educated and scholarly men,
and they are spreading blignt and mil
dew over many a once noble and useful
life. Because of this, he said, he closed
his address with an elegant and tender
appeal to his “boys,” as he called them,
whom he was now to send forth with his
blessing from this their last Sabbath ser
vice as a class—to seek an intellectual
culture rich with a vital piety, that their
lives on earth might be useful and honor
ed in the highest and noblest sens-s, and
in death be renewed with brig’ ter and i
holier aims in another and an eternal ex- j
istence. i
EMINENT MEN PRESENT.
The platform in the chapel was filled
with distinguished divines and well-known
public citizens of Georgia, while the en
tire building was crowded with a throng
of eager listeners. The services were in
terspersed with “University Hymns,”
written for the occasion, and wl ich were
sung by a choir. The invocation was
made by Rev. Dr. Tichenor, of Auburn;
| the Scriptures read and prayer offered by
! Rev. Dr. Dixon, of Augusta, and the
! benediction pronounced by the Rev. Dr.
Lane, of this city. Near us, on the plat
form, we recognized Ex-Gov. Jenkins,
Hon. H. W. Hilliard, Judge M. J. Craw
ford, Rev. Dr. Mell, Hon. A. O. Bacon,
Col. D. W. Lewis, and other prominent
gentlemen whose names are unknown to
us. It is a matter of great rejoicing that
in the vast audience present on that occa
sion we saw but one solitary young man
whose hair was parted in the middle, and
we felt sure that it would be impossible to
part his brains in the same way, as the
quantity is evidently too small for such a
delicate operation to be performed in
safety.
WESLEYAN GIRLS AT ATHENS.
It seems that the beautiful young ladies
of Wesleyan Female College, Macon, have
flocked, almost en masse, to the Com
mencement Exercises of the University of
Georgia at Athens. They wish to see
how well the boys can do on such occa
sions, having themselves passed through
the trying ordeal. Os the most beautiful
and gifted of these fair maidens, we may
mention Miss Lillie Q. Alexander, of At
lanta, whose brilliant valedictory at Ma
con has made her quite distinguished ;
Miss Sadie Burge, of Oxford, who also
read a splendid salutatory; Miss Loula
W. Dozier, of Muscogee; Miss Minnie
; Jackson, of Macon; Miss Emma Carlton,
! of Union Point; Miss Laura Willet, oi
Macon; and many others, all of whom
are capable of turning the heads and win
ning the hearts of the University boys, by
their rare beauty and accomplishments.
Their conquests have already commenced,
we learn, in good earnest.

Editors Sun: Another day has dawned
upon this now overcrowded and gay little
town. Cool moonlight nights and pleas
ant days, with the exception of a shower
yesterday evening, have contributed no
little to the enjoyment of all classes in
attendance upon the Commencement Ex
ercises. The train yesterday morning
brought in large additions to the crowd,
among whom we noticed Gen. John B.
Gordon and lady, and Col. B. G. Lockett
and Miss Lizzie Lockett. A still larger
crowd came in on the evening train. It
is truly encouraging to the friends of this
University, as it is to all who feel a deep
interest in the subject of education, that
such a large number of the most distin
guished men of the State are here gath
ered together to witness its annual public
exercises. All the leading daily journals
of Georgia are ably represented by some
member of their editorial corps, and it is
presumed that they will make a good use
of this opportunity to impress upon the
minds of their numerous readers at home,
the high place which our educational in
stitutions are now claiming and securing
for themselves in the public eye and the
daily press of the State. Northern col
leges and universities are richly endowed
and tenderly fostered, and the South
should see to it that her institutions are
not neglected.
On Sunday night the Methodist Church
was densely packed, it being the occasion
of the annual sermon before the Young
Men’s Christian Association of the Uni
versity. The preacher was Rev. J. Dixon,
D. D., pastor of the Baptist Church at
Augusta, who was assisted iu the intro
ductory services by Rev. T. B. Skinner,
D. D., formerly of your city, and Rev.
(Hon.) Henry W. Hilliard, of Augusta.
The text was from the fifteenth verse of
the twenty-first chapter of Job: “ What
is the Almighty, that ice should serve
Him sand ichat profit should we have if
'tcc pray unto Him ?” The latter clause
furnished the subject of discourse—“ The
Profitableness of True Religion.” This
was clearly and ably shown. 1. In its as
pirations upon the intellectual powers of
man. The idea of a God and Saviour is a
grand one, to a truly religious mind, and
exalts and expands all its nobler faculties;
2. In its influence upon the moral quali
ties of a man. which, whatever may have
been his real worth outside of Christ,
w' en he becomes a Christian gentleman,
rise into a higher and broader field of
philanthropic and noble endeavor; 3. In
its placing of man’s life structure upon
the sure and stable foundations of a sub
lime and unshaken faith in God, the great
Controller of all human events. This is
the one high and grand element of Chris
tianity, for Faith is the bright and glori
ous guiding star of all holy and true en
deavor. Without it and its accompany
ing blessings, human existence,would be
a burden and a delusion. The compari
sons and illustrations used iu this interest
ing discourse, which lacked power only in
its delivery, were striking and practical.
SOPHOMORE EXHIBITION.
On yesterday morning the contest took
place for the medal offered to the best
declaimer in the Sophomore Class. The
j following were the contestants: K. G.
! Dickinson, H. H. Gordon, J. T. Graves,
| J. J. Hill, W. S. Johnson, J. W. Lester,
F. 11. Milbiun, J. T. Pou, F. M. Ridley,
P. A. Stovall, W. W. Sturges, T. P. Vin
cent, T. C. Walton and L. Warren. Gor
don is the son of Gen. Gordon, and re
cited “Parrhasins and the Captive” in a
most excellent manner. He is a tall, fine
looking, and talented young man. Mil
burn is a sou of Rev. W. H. Milburn,
the eloquent Wind preacher, and deliver
ed an extract from Hon. B. 11. Hill’s great
Union Speech in a style that reminded us
of Edward Everitt’s peculiar manner of
speaking. Young Graves, who is from
Albany, was the most natural and elo
quent orator, and if real merit is made
the test, he is sure to get the medal. His
Bubject was “Irish Aliens,” and, in clos
ing, he turned to Gen. Gordon, who oc
cupied a seat on the stage, and appealed
to him as Georgia’s true and heroic leader
in the late war, if the Catholic Irish ever
faltered in their duty to the flag under
which they fought. This graceful com
pliment to a gallant soldier and true pa
triot, who received it with a modest rec
ognition, called forth hearty applause
from the entire audience. The declama
tions were interspersed with music by the
Athens Brass Band, and, with a few ex
ceptions, were creditable performances.
Many of the speakers were complimented
with an abundance of bouquets, the gifts
of their lady friends present, who wit
nessed with pride their oratorical efforts.
ADDRESS OF HON. A. H. STEPHENS.
The Literary Address before the Phi
Kappa aud the Demostheuean Societies
j was delivered at five o’clock yesterday
evening, and notwithstanding a heavy
shower prevailed at the time, the chapel
was literally packed with an eager and
intelligent audience. In addition to the
distinguished men whom we have already
reported as being present in the city,
Hon. Robert Toombs, Rt. Rev. John W.
Beckwith, D. D., ex-Gov. Joseph E.
Brown, Rev Lovick Pierce, D. D., Hon.
L. Q. C. Lamar, Bishop George F. Pierce,
Rev. Alfred Mann, D. D., and Rev. Geo.
T. Goetchius occupied the platform. Mr.
Stephens was seated at a table and read
his address with much greater ease than
we had expected. His subject was “The
Letters of Junius,” which he character
ized as pure models of English and the
embodiment of the true principles of
constitutional liberty. He spoke of sim
plicity as the foundation of all true great
ness ana goodness. Life and its conflicts
are sad realities. He offered the young
men before him no display of rhetoric,
nor any mere show of gaudy word paint
ing. He should appeal to their judgment,
not their fancy. Principles are more im
portant than the man who proclaims
them, yet he wished to defend the char
acter of “Junius,” whoever he may have
been, and show that his letters of invec
tive were from an honest and noble heart,
the result of a cultivated aud gifted
mind, and the offspring of no feeling of
| ' J will against the persons and powers
i whom they assailed. He disputed the
! claims of all persons to whom the author
j ship of these letters has been imputed,
| in an able manner, and closed by an elo- i
quent appeal to the young men to study
! these letters thoroughly, and let the noble
principles there set forth govern them
in their efforts to build up the shatttered
fortunes of our country. At times Mr.
Stephens spoke with great emphasis and
power, and was frequently applauded.
His final words to the young men were
eminently appropriate, and were received
with prolonged applause. Thus ended
one of the happiest literary efforts of this j
great statesman's life, and at its close the
distinguished gentlemen on the platform
gathered about him and tendered him
their hearty- and sincere congratulations.
This was followed by a general hand
shaking on the part of a large portion of
the audience, a tribute to which the
speaker very gracefully submitted. i
demosthenian society.
This ancient society, which was organ
ized in 1801, and which numbers in its
membership scores of gentlemen from
your vicinity, held its Celebration last
night, Mr. E. W. Montgomery in the
chair. The orator of the occasion was
Mr. J. D. Scott, a student from Daniels
ville, whose subject, “The Philosophy of
Success,” was treated in an eloquent,
energetic and practical manner.
After portraying the corruptions of
Church and State, ho appealed to the
young men for a reformation of these
abuses. They could succeed (1) By self
knowledge. (2) By se'f-govemment. (3)
By integrity of purpose. (4) By fixed
ness of purpose. (5) By energy in execu
tion. Each of these points was well elab
orated and enforced, and a noble appeal
made in their behalf to the young men of
the graduating class. At the close of the
oration, Mr. A. E. Thornton presented the
following medals to the best declaimers of
the Demosthenian Society: First medal
to H. W. Barrow, Oglethorpe county, as
the best debater; junior medal to C. Z.
McCord, Augusta: sophomore medal to
P. A. Stovall, Augusta; State College
medal, the first ever presented, to Fred
Pope, Wilkes eounty. The medals are of
gold, and form an eloquent testimonial to
the oratorical success of these young men.

SPEECH FROM HON. H. W. HILLIARD.
A large crowd gathered in front of the
Newton House, Athens, on Monday night,
for the purpose of calling out Gen. Gor
don for a speech. Finding that gentle
man absent at the time, they changed the
cry to “Hilliard,” in response to which
the Hon. Henry W. Hilliard appeared
upon the balcony and made a few brief
but eloquent and impressive remarks on
the duty of the hour, as regards the young
men. He heartily endorsed the address
of Mr. Stephens, and exhorted the stu
dents before him to be guided in their
public actions by its principles.

The startling drawback on nearly all medic
nal agents has ever been that in their process
of purgation and purification they have alsode
bilitated the system To obviate this difficulty
physicians have long sought tor an agent that
would
Purge, Purify & Strengthen
AT ONE AND TIIK SAME TIME.
Their research has at last been rewarded by a
discovery which fully realizes the fondest de
sires of the medical faculty, and whicli is justly
regarded as the most important triumph that
Pharmacy has ever achieved. This important
desideratum is
Dr. Tuit’s Vegetable Liver Pill,
Which purify the blood and remove all corrupt
humors and unhealthy accumulations from the
body, and yet produces no weakness or lassi
tude % hatever, but on the contrary tones the
stomach and invigorates the body during the
progress of their operation. They unite the
heretofore irreconcilable qualities of a Strength
ening Purgative unit Purifying Tonic.
Dr. Tutt’s Pills are the most active and
searching medicine in existence. They at once
attack the very root ot diseases, and their ac
tion is so prompt that an hour or two after they
are taken tlie patient is aware of their good
effects. They may be taken at any time with
out restraint of diet or occupation; they pro
duce neither nausea, griping or debility; and
as a family meuxcme they have no rival.

I8 THE MOST POWERFUL CLEANSER, Strength
ener and remover of Glandular Obstructions
known to Materia Medico,
It is specially adapted to constitutions
“worn down’’ and debilitated by the warm
weather of Sprint?and Summer, when the blood
is not in active circulation, consequently gath
ering impurities from sluggishness and imper
fect action of the secretive organs, and is mani
fested by Tumors, Eruptions, Blotches, Boils,
Pustules, Scrofula, &c., &c.
When weary and languid from overwork,
and dullness, drowziness and inertia take the
place of energy and vigor, the system needs a
Tonic to build it up and help the Vital Forces
to regain their recuperative power.
In the heat of Summer, frequently the
Liver and Spleen do not properly perform their
functions, the Uterine and Urinary Organs are
inactive, producing weakness of the stomach
and intestines and a predisposition to bilious
derangement.
Dr. WELLS’

It should be freely taken, as .Turubeba is
