Burch and Dorsey, of Athens, with their families, and numerous others, are spending the summer amid its shadowy glades. Tlial Mule. The Southron of Monday says I have the mule that Absolam was on when he was hung by the hair. That may be true; I haven’t tried to trace the genealogy of the animal; but I am satisfied that Balaam’s mule(!) is still abroad in the land, and the twain would make a royal old team. W. S. Cox.

Durham, at Nor cross, died suddenly on the 3rd inst. Young Mr. Durham lias resided in Texas for eight or nine years past, was a steady, kind hearted young man, and greatly esteemed. He was brother of Mrs. D. E. Evans and Mrs. Milton Hope, of this city. Wo tender the afflicted our sympathy. Our New .Tail. The lot bought is on Maple street, near the residence of D. E. Evans, and in full vnw of Bradford and Main streets. The lo cation is a good one, and admirably adapted to the purposes of a jail. The lumber and other materia! aro being delivered on the ground, and Mr. McGinty will soon put the mechanics to work. The lot cost one hun dred and fifty dollars, and wo consider it a good purchase and a beautiful lot. Tlic Seminary. Says tho North-eastern Progress: “The first “Commencement” for the Baptist Fe male Seminary, at Gainesville, occurred during last week, and judging from favora ble accounts of the press, the friends of the institution and the large and worthy denom ination to which it belongs, have every cause for congratulation at t o success of the enterpri e, thus far; and with each suc cessive “Commencment” we hope to hear of a continued realization of the brightest an ticipation of its friends. Tile Paupers’ Home. This charitable institution of Hall county is located ten miles east of Gainesville, on the Oconoc river, and is presided over by G. W. York. There are at present ten inmates, alt very old persons, and some of them have nice gardens by their own labor. The pre mises are neatly kept, everything clean and nice, and reflects much credit on the keeper. The farm is in line condition, about thirty five acres in cultivation. We think Mr. York is tho right man in the right place. Gy in nasi ics Extraordinary. To look at Wiley Reed one would take him for a solid inuldoon of a citizen, that would no more think of cutting tho double shuffle than tho moon would thick of wearing the same quarter a whole month. But Wiley can dance upon occasion for all that - The other day he was walking out on his farm with a couple of friends, and while stopping to state some weighty fact, a lizard came galloping along and concluded to explore Wiley’s pants leg. The boys say that he “all hands round,” crossed away and turned a gum stump without anybody calling the figure. The combatants were finally parted before any serious damage was done, but Wiley says it gives him the cold chills to think of a lizard. A Fearful Drouth. Tho awful drouth that has existed in many portions of our State for weeks and weeks past is the most fearful and alarming one since tho noted drouth of 1845. Thus it is in portions of Walton, Putnam, Hancock, Greene, Oglethorpe, Wilkes, and other counties: Upland corn is a total failure; cot ton will not make one fourth of a crop, even with plenty of rain from uow on, and bot tom crops are hopelessly injured. It will be remembered by many of our readers that in 1840, the year after the noted dry year, thousands of corn was hauled from this county to Elbert aud Wilkes in wagons. While we are uow more blessed and favored than our suffering neighbors, we are never iheless warned to husband and carefully save everything that will feed man or beast, as it will most certainly be in great demand. In this connection we might advise our far mers to sow their stubble lands in peas where it is possible Peas make good for age and lots of it. Cnpt. YVoUlrldge’s Lttluri. Csptain John H. Woldridge delivered his popular lecture, “Home Life,” at tho court house on Tuesday evening, the 9th inst., to a good audience. We,can heartily join with all who heard this lecture in expressing our high appreciation of it as a tine literary- pro duction, and we unhesitatingly endorse the high encomiums it has received from the press generally. While it is overflowing with valuable and instructive suggestions as to how to make happy homes aud happy hearts, yet it abounds with a sufficient amount of wit and humor to render it the more attractive. Captain Woldridge is an ex-Coufederate soldier, and lost both of his eyes in that hotly contested battle at Perry ville, Ky., in 1852, which rendered him un able to follow the profession which he had chosen—the law—and has therefore adopted lectuiin : as a moans of making a living, aud we isk lor him that liberal patronage he so richly deseives. TRUSTEES REPORT. The Trustees of the Georgia Baptist Fe male Seminary. 7o the people of Northeast Georgia and friends of education everywhere: We, the Trustees of the Georgia Baptist Seminary for young ladies in Gainesville, beg ieave to state that we have attended the first annual Commencement of said institu tion, and feel that we cannot too highly recommend it to the patronage of the pub lic. THE FACULTY Is composed of Rev. W. C. Wilkes, A. M., President, Rev. T. P. Cleveland, A. M., assistant in ancient languages and English literature, Miss Annie Hornady assistant in French and principal in primary depart ment, and Mrs. M. F. VanHoose principal of the department of music—vocal and in strumental, and instructress in fancy and ornamental department, for the ensuing scholastic term. THE ENTIRE EXAM NATION Showed that the school had received the most thorough instruction without being drilled for the special occasion. The grad uating class consisted of five young 'adie3, who e thorough deportment and ladylike deportment satisfied this board that they were well worthy the honors of the institu tion. And this board cheerfully recom mended their graduation. The Junior, Sophomore and Freshman classes exhibited thorough training in the Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Ancient Classics of their respective classes especial ly in Latin readings and compositions. The primary classes under Miss Hornady and the classes in French sustained them selves well, and exhibited a knowledge of first principles rarely attained by children of their age. All of which fully satisfied the board that their efficient teacher had lully discharged her duty. But wo were struck most forcibly with THE CLASS IN MUSIC Under the management of Mrs M. F. Van- Hoose. Alter a long and searching exami nation ou tho rudiments of music we were satisfied that no ; aius had been spared in their instruction and that no better school of music is to be found auy where. THE DISCIPLINE OE THE SCHOOL appears to be kind, wholesome and effective, and the pupils contented and happy. THE HEALTH OF THE SCHOOL during the past term has been remarkably good. No serious case of sickness has oc curred among tho pupils during tho whole scholastic year. BOARD IS CHEAP. It can be had in good families from $8 to $lO per month. The President exercises a constant oversight over girls hoarding in the city as well as over those boavding in his own family. THE UNIFORM DRESS makes the cost of dress a mere trifle. Ex pensive apparel and supeifluous and costly jewelry are excluded. NO PURER AIR OR WATER can be found on this continent than is to be foun l in Gainesvile. This fact has been recognized by the thousands of visitors who resort here eveiy summer for health - The peoplo of Gainesville aie moral, in dustrious and intelligent, and church facili ties are ample. Iu short, we feel that this institution, with its favorable surroundings and its learned and efficient faculty, may safely be recom mended as one of the best institutions for the education of young ladies, iu the south. And that it recommends itself to the sup port, sympathy and confidence of the friends of female education everywhere, especially when we consider that it is located in a sec tion of country to which the priviledges of a liberal female education have not heretofore been extended. Thus far the institution, the foster daughter of the Baptist denomination and the free-will offering of the friends of female education everywhere, has succeeded far beyond our most sanguine expectations. But, while much has been accomplished in the last twelve months, much remains to bo done, while we have ample buildings to ac commodate 150 pupils, the rapid increase of the school daring the past term admonishes us that other and more commodious build ings will soon become necessary. And we earnestly call on the friends of female educa tion everywhere, to come to our aid with their contributions, and help us in building up an institution where the mind, heart and hand of the daughters of Georgia may bo polished alter the similitude of a palace, and they prepared for the high and responsible duties of life. Very respectfully, David E. Butler, President, D. G. Candi.kr, Vice President. D. E. Banks, Treasurer, O. B. Thompson, J. W. Bailey. Note.—The fall term will open on Mon day, Sept. Ist. A few days vacation will be given during Christmas week. Gainesville District Conference. The Gainesville District Conference met at Canton, Ga., July 10, 1879. Kev. J. F. Mixon, P. E., presided with dignity and ability. The pastors of charges wore all iu attendance, except two or three who sent reports and had valid excuses for absence. A large number of local preachers were present, and a fair delegation of lay mem bers and delegates. Gainesville was repre sented by Revs. Lowery, LaHatte and Brad- ' ley. Prof. C. B LaHatte was elected secretary, and Dr. H. S. Bradley assistant. The spiritual state of the church was thought to be generally good; Sunday schools progressing finely; finances a little behind in some charges, but fully up in one or two; some revivals in different parts of the district; and nearly all the churches liv ing in peace with themselves and with their neighbors. Dr. Bradley preached an able sermon Wednesday night. Conference opened Thursday, 9a. m. Kev. W. P. Smith, of Duluth preached at 11 a. m. His was a very interesting sermon, especiavy the lat ter part.

B, LaHatte, Sunday at 11, at Methodist church; Rev. A. W. Rowlen, at Baptist church at 11, and Rev. H. S. Bradley at night. Two pro fessed religion on Sunday nigi.t. The meet ing was continued by the pastor, Rev. E. K Akin, with a fair prospect for a good revi val. We had a pleasant stay in Canton; the people are generally cultivated, and very generous iu their hospitality. I never saw a conference better treated. Canton is a growing little towii already, but tbe M. & N. G. R. 11. under the careful management of Gen. Phillips is doing more to improve the place than was even dreamed of two years ago. The delegates that went by rail are under obligations to Gen. Phil lips for a free trip over his bea.itilul road- We wish him, Canton, and the railroad all success. I The next conference is to be held at Law renceville. S. E. C. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY. News Notes aliout Young anti Old People. Miss Carrie Simmons visited Jefferson last week. Mrs. G. W.

Thomas and wife, W. D. Luckie and wife, M. E. Thornton, Atlanta. “Jack Plane;” the able and conscientious correspondent of the Savannah News, has tho following to say of our young townsman Mr. Henry Perry, in his letter from the Ox. ford Commencement: “At four o’clock Henry Perry, Esq., of Gainesville, but a Savannah boy, delivered the “alumni ad dress.” Being an honored son of Emory -for he graduated with the first honor in the class of 1870 the audience expected somethi >g above ordiuary. He chose for his theme “Wuat a College Should be, or a Plea for a Higher and a Broader Educa tion.” He commenced very deliberately; in fact the only objection heard was that he threw a lit tle too much of the law in his style of speaking and acting,lout these were minor affairs, as he succeeded iu keeping an audi ence of several hundred people interested and attentive for one hour and a half on that hot afterioou. That was a good test of his power. His plea for the retention of the classics in collegiate instruction as the only foundation of a thorough and broad scholarship, was not only eloquent, but it was convincing in argument. His prefer ence for the college system of instruction over that of the university courso was most forcibly and clearly presented. His criti cism of the common school system as ad ministered in Georgia was anything but complimentary. Much of his address was extempore, but it gave evidence that he had thoroughly studied his subject. Congratu lations were showered upon the young ora tor from every quarter. Neither Emory College nor Savannah have any reason to be ashamed of their son. He honored both as well as himself. The Family Sewing Machine. The invention of that superior and com plete sewing machine (The Family Shuttle Machine), marks one of the most important eras in the history of machinery, and when we consider its great usefulness and extreme lv low price ($25), it is very difficult to con ceive of any invention for domestic use of more or even equal importance to families. It has great capacity for work; beautiful, smooth, and quiet movement, iapid execu tion, certainty of operation, and delightful ease, that at once commends it above all others. The working parts are all steel; the bobbins hold 100 yards of thread; the stitch is the firmest of all stitches made, neat and regular, and can be regulate l in a moment to sew stitches from an inch iu length on coarse material down to the finest, so infini tesimal as to be hardly discernable with the naked eye, and with a rapidity rendering it impossible to count them as fast as made; it does to perfection all kinds of heavy, coarse plain, fine or fancy needle work with ease, and far less labor than required on other machiues. It needs no commendation, the r ipid sa'es,increasing demand,and voluntary encomiums from the press, and the thous ands of families who use them, amply testi fy to their undoubted worth as a standard and reliable household necessity, extending its popularity each day. This popular ma chine can be examined at the office of this paper. Agents wanted by the company- Address them for information. Family sewiug Machine Company, 755 Broadway* New York.

VAUGHN, jullß-2t Gainesville, Ga. - +. Teeth extracted without pain at Dr Adair’s Dental Palace. How many persons speak indistinctly from the simple want of having a full set of teeth. A. Save your teeth ! Don’t allow the ‘ ‘hard trines” to bo an excuse for their neglect. Dr. 11. It. Adair, Dentist, Candler Block, Gainesville, Ga. All op erations performed in a skillful manner, and charges very reasonable. It is economy as well as the part of wis dom to have your teeth filled before they become badly decayed. Many teeth can be filled and permanently saved for about the usual charge for extractiug. R. B. Adaib. Poets in all ages have descended from their traditional garrets to sing the praises of beautiful teeth; and no person in appear ance can claim either dignity o. comeli ness without good natural teeth or their artificial substitutes. R. B. Adaib. Dr. Adair is the only dentist in this sec tion who procures a license for the privilege of using rubber as a base for artificial teeth. Rubber or vulcanite are the only cheap and durable materials, that can be used for artificial teeth. All other cheap things that i you see advertised are but faint delusions. Decayed teeth are always a fruitful source of disease, vitiating tho saliva, aud infecting the blood at every inspir ation. Decayed tooth substance, when viewed through the microscope, reveals myriads of animalcules, called parasites; these cause a disagreeable breath, which is always repulsive. The remedy for all these evils can be had at Dr. Adair’s office. 2000 Bushels Wheat Wanted. We will buy choice clean wheat at the highest market price.
