THU FEMALE SEMINARY.
Fourth Communication.
lo the Citizens of Gainesville:
At the suggestion of friends, iustead
of considering the question, “will it
P a U>” in this letter, we will now try to
show, “How we expect to get the
means necessary to erect the buildings
and to endow the institution.”
Ist. Our plea is noble. When we
appear before an intelligent people
and satisfy them that our object is to
afiord the greatest possible facilities
for the education of their daughters,
we will touch a chord which will vi
brate to the heart of every class of so
ciety. A father’s love for his daughter
is very tender. lie is willing to endure
many privations to enable his daughter
to appear well in the world. Convince
him that the proper training of his
fair and intellectual daughter in our
Seminary, will make her “as a corner
stone, polished after the similitude of
a palace,” and his money will flow
“free as water.”
The mother too is ready and willing
to do all in Ler power to elevate and
refine the one who moves as “the an
gel of her household.” She will almost
“wear herself out,” at the cookstove
and wash-tub, if necessary, that the
daughter may grow up fair and tender.
We have seen and do know enough of
a mother’s devotion to her child to
confirm us in the belief, that the
mothers, when the appeal is properly
made, will endow our Seminary.
2nd. A special plea may secuie for
our school a handsome donation. The
honored Mrs. Mary Sharp, by a rea
sonable donation, has a monument to
ber memory iu Mary Sharp College in
Winchester, Tenn. The famous Mr.
Matthew Vasser has immortalized his
name, by giving half a million for
the endowment of a College in Pough
keepsie, N. Y. Mercer University re
ceived its name in honor of the munifi
cence of the great and good man, Eav.
Jesse Mercer. The same is true of
Girard College, in Philadelphia, and
quite a number of others. Now, wo
intend to give to any worthy man or
woman, who will give our school a do
nation of $25,000, (and perhaps a loss
sum,) the high privilege of giving his
or her name to our Seminary. And
who would not lie proud to be thus
handed down to posterity as a graet
benefactor of woman ?
Jrd. Another special plea may bo of
fered for the endowment of professor- 1
ships. Franklin has a Stephens profes
sor,ship,and Mercer a Sanders professor- *
ship. Had the late war not interfered, I
no doubt a professorship would have
been endowed in Monroe Female Col
lege, iu Forsyth, Ga. Now we intend
to offer inducements to the friends of (
female education, to endow a profes- (
sorship iu any one of the departments (

Persons who have been prosperous
and lived to a ripe old age in the eujoy
ment of their property and have no
near relatives to whom they wish to
will their estate, often desire, when
about to die, to bequeath a part or all
their property to institutions of learn
ing. Mr. Lot Hearn, of Putnam county,
and Mr. Martin of Jefferson when about
to leave this world, thought such a
disposition of their property the wisest
and best they could make. So, doubt
less, it will be with others. We believe
our valuable institution will not be
lorgotton by all the people of fortune,
when expiring nature is looking around
for worthy objects upon which to be
stow charities.
sth. We expect to appoint suitable
agents to call upon the Baptists of
Georgia to build up and endow their
adopted seminary. They arc well
able to do it. They are at least 20U,-
000 strong This will make one Bap
tist, nearly, for every six of the popu
lation. The taxable property of Geor
gia is nearly $±00,000,000, one sixth of
which, $65,000,000, probably belong to
Baptists. And they not able to give
one-fourth of one per cent to our in
stitution! But are they willing?
W filing ! What did they ever fail to
do, or show an unwillingness to do,
when made plain it was ther duty to
do ? Emphatically nothing. They are
a noble, wealthy and pious body of
christ ans. They helped to build up
Wes : ey Female College, then “Geor
gia Female College ’ —for the writer
wns present when the venerable Dr.
Pierce presented the subject of a Fe
male College. Baptists then subscribed
as liberally as any other denomina
tion. They have largely endowed
Mercer University. They have con
tributed $50,000 to the Sjutbern The
ological Seminary at Greenville, S. C.
They are able and willing to build up a
splendid College in our city, they will
do it.
Gth. We purpose sending, at a prop
er time, one or more able men to other
States to represent the claims of our
seminar}-, feeling assured we will find
friends there who will aid in this great
and good work.
At somo future time we wish to
write more t a this same subject.
“Will such an institution pay” will
probably he the subject of our next
communication. ‘ W 7. C. Wilkes.

Colton Facto’y Kimball’s Triumph
Defeat of English—Business—Con

Courts—Judge Peeples-
Some Other Matters.
Business called us to Atlanta, on Monday
and Tuesday of this week.
THE COTTON FACTORY
and H. I. Kimball's triumph over fools, false
hood and bully-ragging was the sensation,
aud all classes were enjoying the situation.
The third annual meeting of the stockhold
ers was held at James’ Hall, on Tuesday even
ing, 16th instant, and was attended by several
hundred persons.
After the reading of the reports of the
President and Treasurer, the President an
nounced the election of officers as the next
business in order. At Ihis juncture the fun
of the occasion opened. Mr. H. I. Kimball,
who, it will be remembered, was crowded out
of the presidency last fall, by a buldozing
process of Mr. J. \V. English, with represen
tations that he could raise plenty of money in
ten days to start the factory, if Kimball were
out of the way, was immediately put in nom
ination for President, with a full Board of Di
rectors in harmony with his views and plans.
Mr. English now' took the floor, ostensibly
to give his reasons for declining to serve on
the Board any longer, aud at once begau a
violent and bitter tirade of abuse upon Mr.
Kimball. He was soon called to order by the
Chairman, but allowed to proceed upon the
request of Mr. Kimball that he should be per
mitted to go on and relieve his mind entirely
of its burden of gall. Mr. English resumed,
and for near two hours belched out a harangue
of criminal charges aud personal iuvective
that would have put to the blush the veriest
blatherskite that ever attempted the role of a
Browulow, or the antics of a buffoon. He
charged Kimball with swindling the company
and appropriating its funds to his own use.
Upon this line he “tore a passion to tatters,”
and literally exhausted the vocabulary of
billingsgate and opprobious epithets—closing
with a grand refrain to the memory of the
cotton factory, which he pronounced dead,
and beyond the power of resurrection by
Kirpball or any other man, aud urged the stock
holders to let it be sold by the sheriff’, when
it would be bought by gentlemen of wealth—
probably meaning himself and friends.
An interesting episode was related to us by
several eye witnesses, as occurring about mid
way Mr. Euglish’s performance.
FULFILLING A SCRIPTURAL INJUNCTION.
Mr. Euglish became thirsty—his lips stuck
fast to his gums, aud his tongue grew too dry
to wag. He called for water, like one of old,
but unlike one of old be found a friend to
reach him the cooling draught. Mr. Kimball
had paid a boy to bring in a bucket of water,
aud the boy naturally enough set the bucket
down close to Mr. K. In response to Mr.
English's appeal, Mr. Kimball, with a smile
of pleasantry and the courteous bearing of a
Chesterfield, seized the bucket, aud advanc
ing hurriedly to Mr. English, said: “Mr.
Euglish, allow me the pleasure of relieving
your thirst.” A storm of applause followed,
while English, confused, confounded aud
abashed, slowly quaffed the reviving elemeut.
And now it is a standing joke in the eity that
Kimball literally fulfilled the scriptural in
junction. “If thine enemy thirst, give him
drink.”
At the conclusion of Mr. English’s remarks,
Kimball was loudly called for, and responded
by saying, if the stockholders present expected
him to reply to the violent harangue of the
gentleman who had just taken his seat, they
would be disappointed—that the charges
mad# by English had all been formally pre
sented to the Board of Directors, while he
was President, by that Board fully investi
gated, found untrue, aud he was eutirely
exhouerated, as several members of the Board
now present would testify; hence lie bad
nothing whatever to say to Mr. English—in
fact he felt no interest in him, and thought
the stockholders felt less—that the charges
didn’t even annoy him, nor threats in
timidate him. He should notice him no farther
than to say, that every charge made by Eng
lish that reflected upon his honor or his in
tegrity, was utterly talse, and had been so
proven by the Board.
Mr. Kimball then proceeded calmly to re
view the history of the factory enterprise, and
placed the responsibility of stopping the work
and consequent damages to the stockholders
upon Mr. J. W. English. He gave the stock
holders the testimony of some of the best
cotton manufacturers in the country, who de
clared that the Atlauta mill was one of the
most perfect iu all its parts they had ever
seen, and that it had been built for less
money than any mill iu the United States,
aud that it could be run at greater profit than
any mill iu the South.
Mr. Kimball then said that while he asked
no man to vote for him, and wanted it under
stood that if elected he must be well paid,
yet he believed that with a harmonious Board
of Directors he could raise the money and
start the mill in a few months.
Mr. Kimball was listened to with marked
attention, aud when he closed a vote was de
manded; but Mr. Aaron Haas arose and said
that as grave charges had been made against
Mr. Kimball by Mr. English, he moved that a
committee of five be appointed to investigate
said charges, and that voting be postponed
until June Ist, to hear their report.
George W. Adair,. J. C. Peck and E. P.
Chamberlain, all members of the old Board,
opposed the motioD, each declaiing that the
very same charges had been fully investigated
by the Board and found untrue.
Mr. Euglish vehemently advocated the mo
tion, declaring that the charges never had
been investigated. A vote was taken, when
Mr. English aud Mr. Haas voted aye, and one
unanimous no went up from several hundred
others present; whereupon, Mr. English took
his hat and bid the meeting “good night.”
The vote for Directors was then proceeded
with, and the following ticket was elected al
most unanimously:
President—H. I. Kimball.
Directors—H. I. Kimball, J. C. Peck, E. P.
Chamberlain, C. W. Hunnicutt, Jas. It. Wylie.
Julius L. Brown, 11. T. Phillips, J. F. Kizer,
and Josiah Gatis, of Lowell, Mass.
This list embraces some of the best and
truest business men in Atlanta, aud gives
promise of speedy success of this important
enterprise.
Mr. Kimball’s re election, under the circum
stances, was one of the grandest triumphs any
man ever achieved, and ought forever to silence
the fools who have so persistently abused him.
We write from data supplied by gentlemen
who were present, aud from the general talk
in the city. Mr. Kimball was backed by the
capital, intelligence aud moral worth of the
city—was Irimmnphantly vindicated and
proudly replaced at the head of the most im
portant enterprise Atlauta has ever engaged in.
BUSINESS
Was stagnant, aud merchants were consoling
themselves with ice-water and hopeful specu
lation as to the future. Some thought the
Eastern war would help trade—others thought
it would nt, while all expressed confidence
that we are upon the eve of better times.
Their traveling ageuts bring them good news
from the farming interests, and the tone of
j trade is improving every day.
THE CON. CON.
: Has but lew advocates iu Atlauta, aud those
whu have the best facilities for estimating the
pro aud con ot the question, gave us tacts and
information that assure the defeat of the move
ment by a large majority. Every man we met
had something to say on the subject, and
every man had news from some particular
loca'ity adverse to the call.
M e met quite a number of gentlemen from
southwestern, northwestern and western
Georgia, aud the concurrent opinion was over
whelmingly against convention; while middle,
eastern aud southeastern Georgia quiver in
the balance, and have no assurance of majori
ties iu favor of the call.
If the people turn out on the day of elec
tion, the conventionists will be as badly beaten
as Jim. English was in the Cotton Factory
meeting, and then the people will pursue their
avocations in peace and quiet—just what they
need so much at this particular juncture.
THE BROWN-GORDON
Imbroglio was quietly talked about, aud the
sentiment seemed to be the universal con
demnation of the assault, aud the universal
commendation of Senator Gordon’s course at
Washington aud his dignified silence at home.
The attack has been successfully repulsed by
the press, aud Gordon has been triumphantly
vindicated by the people. The ex-Governor
made a mistake, and is beaten, badly beaten,
and the victors can w'ell afford a truce.
THE COURTS.
Judge Underw'ood w'as bolding court forjudge
Peepies, who, we regret to say, is still quite
feeble and without hope of early recovery.
He is iu a critical condition, and it will require
the utmost skill and care to raise him from
the bed of affliction. Judge Underwood is
one of Georgia’s purest Jurists, as well as one
of the ablest Judges on the Bench. Jurors,
litigants and lawyers, all love Judge Under-
all men are fond of him for his
social virtues, his high attainments, his un
swerving integrity and his just appreciation of
the dignity and responsibility of his exalted
station.
Alieimda Bradly was expected on Tuesday,
but he did not arrive, and we were deprived
of the pleasure of seeing the basest man on
the American Bench. He will probably be
feted by the Hayes men of Atlauta before the
week is out.
SOME OTHER MATTERS.
The merchants did not regard this an auspi
cious time to put in their advertisements, but
promised something liberal in that way after
awdiile. They say that the trade of the Air-Line
and North-Eastern Georgia is the most reli
able they have, aud at the proper time they
will bid for it vigorously through the columns
of the Eagle.
The Markham House continues to attract
a large proportion of the traveling public, and
Mr. Owens continues to be the genial, accom
modating provident host. Messrs. Wiley aud
Hammond are still there, and a more delight
ful horfie is no where to be found.
The water question continues to disturb the
sleep of the credulous and scary, and the
problem of cleaning the pond and purifying
the wejls haunts the City Council.
We called to see the editors of the Constitu
tion, and were informed that Grady was learn
ing to materialise spirits at DeGives, and that
Small and Harris were taking lesons, on-
Marietta street, in the art of spiritualising
material. Messrs. Finch and Howell, propri
etary editors, alone were in ihe office, and we
failed to fathom the mystery of the author
ship ot “H. I. T.” They complained of a
lull in business, and lagardness on the part of
subscribers.
The XjpnHin P-i.Gi.... House wan in full
play, w*tli all hands at work on State Printing
and promiscuous jobs. Messrs J. P. Harri
son A Cos. are probably doing more and better
printing than any 4 establishment south of
Baltimore. They print the Index, Grange,
Homeward Star, Medical Journal, Living Age,
State Laws and Journals, Department Work,
and a large share of commercial and other
matter. They have an immense establish
ment, delirer work on time, and never permit
a bad job to go out of the office.
Gov. Colquitt was gone down to inspect the
Macon A Brunswick Railroad, and to review
the military companies in Savannah.
General Gordon was at home attending to
his private affairs, and letting Governor Brown
severely alone.
The State Government is running as smooth
ly as well-oiled machinery, aud all the Depart
ments are well up with business. Treasurer
Renfroe was signing Bonds and Coupons.—
The $2,300,000 of 6 per cent. Bonds, author
ised by the last Legislature, to substitute the
M. & B. R. R. 7 per cent. Bonds, will require
his signature 57,000 times.
Mayor Angier informed us that the assess
ment of Real Estate was a little over a million
short ol last year’s, and that the returns of
peisonalty would fall off’near a million; never
theless there was no great depression iu the
city financies, and building was progressing
about as usual. The Water Bonds are worth
85, and the Straight City Bonds 95 to par.

I admit that I did sell Mr. Hoge a lot in
Gainesville with a mortgage lien upon it, but
I informed Mr. Hoge of the fact before there
was a stroke of a pen towards perfecting titles
to said lot, and in the presence of his family
aud another gentleman, which I will be able
to prove by said gentleman if it should ever
come to the test.
Respectfully,

This unrivaled preparation lias per

cures that are recorded in the annals of

“WON’T 00 TO FLORIDA.”
3S. r ev 7 York, August 30,1872.
DR. TUTT;
Dear Sir When in Aiken, last winter, I used your
Expectorant for my cough, and realized more benefit
from it than anything I ever took. lam so well that
I will not go to Florida next winter a3 I intended.
Send me one dozen bottles, by express, for some
friends. ALFRED CUSHING,
123 West Thirty-first Street.
Boston, January 11,1874.
This certifies that I have recommended the use o!
Dr. Tutt’3 Expectorant for diseases of the lungs
for the past two years, and to my knowledge many
bottles have been used by my patients with the hap
piest results. In two cases where it was thought con
firmed consumption had taken place the Expectorant
effected a cure. R. H. SPRAGUE, M.D.
“ We can not speak too highly of Dr. Tutt’s Ex*
pectorant, and for the sake of suffering humanity
hope it may become more generally known.”—Chris-
