The excursionists will remain over until ten that night when they will return, arriv ing in Atlanta next morning. We understand that the Falls will be illuminated at night with calcium and head lights, which will add much to the beauty and weird effect of the grandest seen tu-y in the South. The train will carry only passenger coaches acd run in the interest of the exclu sion alone. Ample accotnnoda tion will he provided. Arrangements have been made for passengers from Lawronc<*ville ;.nd vicinity who desire to join the excursion to leave on tiie morning train and connect at Suwanes and connect again as they return. — Fare for tna round trip $2. Pat ties intending to go from here should notify the agent so that ar rangmnents can be made for their accommodation. Co :ntj Meeting j As will bo seen by the proceed ; ings of the county meeting held j here last Tuesday, another mass . meeting of the democratic party is I called to assemble in the Court House in L.i'.vrouceviile on the Ist J I'.esduy in August, to appoint del egatc3 to the Congressional and Senatorial Conventions and to so lect an Executive Committee to serve for the next two years. It is probable tout some action will be taken on that day in refer ence to members of the House of Representatives. It has not been customary to make nominations for county officers, a,,d we can see no necessity for charging the rule The people are personally acquaint ed with the candidates, and from the number who present them selves generally select competent and efficient rn.,11 to All the various stations Hence nominations are unnecessary in a county where the party is so largely iu the majority as it is in Gwinnett. The questions of whether nomi nations will be made should bo definitely settled at that meeting, so that gentlemen who desire to present their claims to the people for the various offices to ba filled by popular elections may act uu der standingly. Strickland-Morgan Affray. We published last week an ac count of the difficulty between Id. E. Strickland, Jr., and Mai. Sam Morgan of Romo, taken from the ‘Courier of‘tint city. V'e have since learned that, while the article was about correct far aa it went, it did not do Strickland justico, in its statement of the origin of Lho sigh t. We learn from a reliable source that the parties met iu the billiard saloon, and were joking each oth er in a pleasant way. which ended in a banter on the part of Morgan to wrestle. The banter was accept ed, and friends of the parties know ing that both of the n were quick tempered, attempted to prevent them from wrestling, but on the promise made by each that t.’nev would not. get mad, made no fur ther objection. Sirickian 1 threw Morgan and foil on t >p, and Morgan immediate iy bit his neck; seeing that Mor gan was wad Strickland essayed to get up and as ho did so, Morgan suddenly flirted him ovtr on the fioor and, getting on top. commenc ed poutuling Strickland in tha face with his fist. Friends prompt !y iateifared and puilml Morgan off, and as they gut him up he kicked Strick'm 1 in or near the eye, making a very severe wound. After they were seperntod Morgan got hold of a billiard cue and at tempted to strike again but was prevented. Strickland then luff the house and attempted to get a pistol, failing in this, he returned to the saloon and in passing thro’ picked up a two by three scantling about 20 inches long that was lying in the room and struck Mor gan a fearful blow. j t will be seen Strickland had manifested a good deal of forbearance to avoid the difficulty and smarting under the injury and indignity renewed the fight. Morgan has tho reputation of bo ing overbearing and a desperate man in a rencounter, and this rep utation doubtless actuated Strict* land to take the advantage, and will mitigate tha offense in the minds of people vrho knew the parties. Strickland, by tha advice of his friends, su. rendered and is in pris on waiting the result of Morgan k injuries The latest report from Home is that he is improving, and we hope lie may recover. Wa viuWsta ;d that pmiic opinion is as usual in such cases, sotnowh.v divided, but Strickland has the sympathy of a large class of the best citizens of the eilv. Oscar Wilde gratified Atlanta's pride by taking in tho town m his rounds before gaping American an diences. Oscar is probably a very nice and proper young man, but has done no hing tucommand him to the admiration of sensible peo pie. We have plenty es natural born fools in this country who are not responsible for their misfort one, and are entitled to the broad est sympathy of our nature, but when a long haired, effeminate cockev is lionized by sensible peo pie, they may expect that he will have iurtatorsiu the coming gen eration. S S. Convention. The annual S. S. Contention of the county will meet in the Pres byterian church next Saturday pro nptly at half past ten. J.t is desired that every school in the county bo represented as import ant business will be transacted.— M. L.
