Visit to the Gainesville f oliegt.
Editor Ea'jle: The exercises at the j
Gainesville College on last Friday
afternoon being public, your corres
pondent availed himself of the op
portunity to visit that institute and
witness the proceedings. His grati
fication wa.s such that he desires
space in the Eagle to giye its read
ers a brief sketch of what he saw
and heard.
At the ringing of the bell, the pu
pils marched orderly and quietly
from the different apartments, the
males by one stairway, the females
by the other, to the chapel in the
second story, where thc-y seated
themselves without the least confu
sion, or even a whisper. The faculty
followed. When all were seated, the
President tapped his little bell, and
about forty pupils, of both sexes,
arose, and at the second tap of the
bell, marched on the stags, the girls
entering the stage on one side, the
boys on the other, and seated them
selves, each one holding a book.—
The President then announced the
piece to be road, a boy and a girl
reading alternately, and criticisms
were called for by the Presid.nt,
and freely given by the pupils, as
each reader closed. When all had
read twice, the bell again sounded,
and the readers resumed their siats
in the audience. Whether the read
ers had been previously drilled on
the pieces read on this occasion, the
subscriber does not know; but it
was evident from the manner in
which most of them acquitted them
selves, that great attention had been
given by them and their instructors
to this important brauch of educa
tion.
Tbe President then annnounced
the names of those who would read
compositions, declaim and give reci
tations; and, at the tap of the bell
these marched to the stage. They
were of both sexes, and embraced
every age, from the oldest to the
youngest pupil. The subject of the
compositions was, “The Life of Mo
ses.’’ The compositions were well
read, and evinced a careful study of
the subject, and laudable success in
style, and in taste in selecting the
prominent points of that interesting
and eventful life. Of course some of
these compositions were better than
others; but all were highly credita
ble.
The declamation by odg young
gentleman, and the recitations by
more than one young lady, deserve
special mention; but all did so well,
and showed such a laudable desire to
do their duty, that distinctions would
be out of place. One gentleman,
representing a candidate for Con
gress from the Oth district, delivered
an original and excellent stump
speech.
This exercise was followed by a
well personated and amusing dra
matic scene, by two of the pupils.
The singing of several songs by
the whole Bchool, led by Miss Mary
B. Butt, the efficient music teacher,
was a most pleasing part of the exer
cises, and tho exact time in which
the school sang, and the modulation
of their voices, evinced care and at
tention on the part of teacher and
pupils in this delightful branch of
the fine arts.
The perfect order, and the readi
ness with which every pupil respon
ded when called on, furnishes unmis
takable evidencejof tho suc363s of
President LaHatte as a disciplina
rian.
The school is open to visitors at
all times, and they are specially invi
ted on these public occasions which
occur every four weeks. Public at
tendance on such occasions, would
prove interesting to the audience,
and stimulating to the pupils, and
advantageous to all concerned.
Visitor.
Letter from White.
Cleveland, Ga , April 8,1878.
Editor Eagle: Our village was
thrown into gloom by the sudden
and unexpected death of Dr. John A.
Moody. He was in town Tuesday,
apparently as well as usual, and
started home about three o’clock, but
got only a short distance from town,
where he was found speechless. He
was brought back to Mr. W. B. Bell’s,
where he received every attention, but
to no avail. He lingered in great
agony until Wednesday morning,
when his spirit took its flight to the
great unknown. Dr. Moody was
widely known as one of the best phy
sicians in Upper Georgia, and he will
be sadly missed. We tender the be
reaved family and relatives our heart
felt sympathy iu this sad affliction,
and may they mourn as not without
hope. Peace to his ashes.
Our town is quiet—nothing trans
piring worthy of mention. Farmers
all seem to be cheerful and thriving.
In fact, business of every kind is
looking up, and I think the day is
dawning when we will bid adieu to
hard times, and this whole country
will, with increased energy aud thrift
doubly prosper and blossom as the
rose. Vivace.
Apples of Bold in Pictures of Silver.
“A word litly spoken is like ap
ples of gold in pictures of silver.”
When the body becomes diseased,
the mind is thereby neccessarily in
fluenced. National wars, State dis
sensions, neighborhood broils, and
family differences, are more fre
quently than otherwise the result
of diseased and disordered constitu
tion. When tho body is suffering,
the mind, acting in sympathy; will
become irritated and perplexed.
When the physical system is in
health, the mind perceives things in
their true light, and the disposition
assumes a very different phase. Noth
ing more directly tends to destroy
the happy cheerful disposition of a
woman and render her peevish, ner
vous, ami fretful, than a constant en
durance of uterine disorders. The
diseases peculiar to w mau take
away the elasticity and bouyancy of
health and reduce her body and
mind to a mere wreck. Dr. Pierce’s
Favorite Prescription is a real peaee
lixaker in a family. No woman suf
eriug from uterine disorders can af
ford to do without this remedy. The
Favorite Prescription saves unnec
essary doctor bills, prevents divorces,
wards off suicides, brings back bouy
ant, joyous feelings, restores the wo
man to health, and her family to
happiness. It is sold by all drug
gists.-
General Presentments.
The Grand Jurors of Banks Superior Court
for the April Term. 1878, make the following
General presentments:
We have examined the books of the Jus
tices of the Peace and Notaries Public, and
find them all correctly kept.
We have also examined tho Clerk’s and
Ordinary’s books and offices, and find them
neatly kept. We have examined the Treas
urer’s books, and find them neatly and cor
rectly kept. We find iu the Treasury $4lB 16
We have examined the Tax Collector’s books
and find them neatly and correctly kept, but
find that there has been no final settlement
between the Collector and Ordinary. We
recommend that such settlement be made.
We have examined the Sheriff’s books, and
find them neatly and correctly kept.
We have examined the Jail, and find it
under repair. We find that tho dungeon
lacks two new planks in the floor, and needs
nine new bolts in the fall door, and one lock
to the fall door and one lock to the middle
door. We would recommend the cutting
down or topping of those two largest oak
trees nearest the court house, for the safety
and protection of the house. We recom
mend thai the Ordinary be paid S6O for ser
vices rendered the county from the 29th of
January, 1877, to December 31, 1877.
We recommend the Ordinary levy a suffi
cient per cent, on the State tax, to raise the
following sums for the following purposes*
*o-wit: Jail fees, $100; for bridges, $250; for
Jurors and Bailiffs) $350; Pauper fund, S3OO,
to pay lawful charges against the county,
$250.
We have examined the books of the Coun
ty School Commissioner, and find them
neatly and correctly kept, and iiud iu the
hands of the Commissioner $50.35. We
recommend that the Ordinary bo furnished
with the following books: Ouo Minute book,
one Return Docket, oue Minute book for
county business, one Homestead record. We
recommend that the Clerk be furnished one
Judgment book. We recommend tw'o round
tables and one hat rack for the Bar. We
have examined the public roads, and find
them iu reasonably good order. We recoin
mead that a privy be built near the Jail.
We beg leave to tender our thanks to his
Honor, George D. Rice, for his able and im
partial administration of the law; and to A.
L. Mitchell, Solicitor General, for his faith*
ful performance of duty, and for kinlness
to our body.
We recommend that these Presentments

A Novel Feature
Presents itself to those who use Parker’s
Hair Balsam, in the discovery of its rare
and remarkable merits. Many have writ
ten us expressing their delight iu the fact
that it works like a charm. Its disinfectant
properties in chemical combination render
ing it healthful, cleansing and healiug are
bearing fruit, and the beautiful hair it pro
duces, with the chan, healthy scalp, entirely
freed from Dandruff and falling hair, are
achievements for which we have reason to
feel proud. A j atron assures us that he
has used twelve different Hair Preparations
and that Parker’s Hair Balsam surpasses
them all. To hair that has become gray or
faded, it restores that beautiful natural color
of youth, and produces a vigor and luxuri
ance that surprises every oue. Buy a bottle
trom your druggist Dr. H. J. Long and test
its merits.
Tortures tliat Need no' he Endured.
People suffer a great deal of pain unneces
sarily. Among tortures that need not be en
dured are those inflicted by the rheumatism
and gout, since the acrid element in the blood
which produces (hem by contact with the
sensitive covering of the muscles and joints
may be eliminated by the U3e of that match
less depureut, flostetter’s Stomach Bitters,
before the inflammatory symptoms are de
veloped to any great extent. When it is
considered what excruciating tortures rheu
matism inflicts, and what a tendency it has,
when fully developed, to attack the heart,
the advisability of au early use of such a re
liable antidote becomes at once apparent.
The rheumatic virus is expelled from the
blood by the increased action of the kidneys
—which act as strainers—produced by the
Bitters, and the sufferer will find, if he uses
this supreme defensive agent, that he will be
protected against a return of the agonizing
complaint. Dyspepsia, feveraud ague, liver
and bowel complaints and other maladies
are also cured by this admirable remedy.
