POLICE COURT REPORT8.
did you ever see the devill
With his iron wooden shovel,
Rearing sll sronnd,
■« «P the ground,
Witt his big toe nails ?’*
Judge HsxnmooJ’s Oonrt has absolutely “paled its
ineffectual conflagrations.” The City Court, by Judge
Cowart, last week, was too much for it. The chaste
assemblage of foreign ambassadors, court ladies and
cabinet members, from tbe purlieus of Frogtown and
Brooklyn, stand aghast st ths outshining lustre of ths
~'ame of the way that functionary straightened things
out last week. Tbe fines imposed for selling whisky
on Sunday bad a tendency to keop things very quiet
yesterday, and the delinquents at the Police Court
feel themselves quits eclipsed by the Cowart machine.
Only four or five cases for drunkenness were up yes
terday morning.
John Vaughn, who vaunteth himself a “whale
among minnows ** in the Frogtown fishery question,
was unfortunately found with his hold too fall of Cin.
cinnstl fire water. John is possessed of the idea that*
by virtue of his high-sounding patronymic, he is
bound to sdipss that Vaughn-ting ambition which
'erleaps itself, and falls upon its back. He has sought
to fill his destiny through life against the most adverse
circumstanoee-in sickness and in health, alone and
a a crcwd, saber or drunk, though more successfully
In the latter condition, if we may be permitted to judge
from circumstances. He was found sn tbs street,
lying under tbe lustre of a lamp post without any
light in it, and hugging it with delusive affection. The
pals moonshine from behind a cloud discovered his
dishevelled hair, dented hat and the dismantled coat.
He waa hoisted on a shutter and conveyed, in solemn
procession, to ths measure of the following requiem*
which he sung himself:
“As grooery ward st break of day.
Two pious students bent their way,
An oft reposted drink to take,
A voice in solemn accents spake,
• Hiatedi”
Mr. Peter Wingates opened the gates on Saturday
afternoon, of his internal economy *o a couple of pints
of the “fiery opuia a'disRte," and gave a tableaux of
himself in a Jetfs branch for the benefit of his credi
tors and ths passers of the Western quarter. When
in convivial mood. Mr. Wingates is one of the flood
gates of generosity who swings complacent to the
stream of popular prejudices. He is either “water
works" or “anti-waterworks.** ss the “treat” may be,
and will drink confusion to the enemiee of anybody
who will pay fer it, aa long ss his hollow legs will hold
water, after which those classic pedestals will give way
sad he sinks into his shoes and coils up into a loose
knot in a muddy branch. Io this condition the guard
found him. where he had constituted himself s back
water for ths accommodation of a joint stock brick
yard company. Mr. Wingates paid the usual fine,
whan the gates wars opened, spreadiig his wings and
he fis r away on ths morning wind.
“I am dying. Egypt, dying,
Suaanah, don’t you cry;
Know how sublime a thing it is
To brush away the blue-tailed fly.**
Thus sang a member of the “art preservative,” who,
ss is the instinctive nature of the craft, shrinks from
having his name emblazoned to the world. This old
typo becoming disgusted with the result of the print
ers strike in the Savannah News some time sirce,
and falling to get his resolution read st s recont meet
ing of ths Typographical Union in this city, retired
Monday morning on a wooden mattress, near
Broad street, and pulled the key-hole in after him.
He oame into court looking very drunk about the hair,
and strangely indifferent ss to who would be the next
Recorder. Not having ibo necessary needful passed
him to satisfy the law, he was passed back to the
gloomy corridors, for in our inevitable court—
“Like a worm that aplnde no silk.
Or s oow that gives no milk,
Lika a oosrder fed on hash,
Is a printer without cash.
Mr. B. B. Light ,(in no way related to the light of
other days), commenced drinking like light-nlng eoon
Monday morning In order to make things easy for a
light drunk by tbe close of the week. Mr. Light il
lumined the dark portals of the lock-up with his rubi
cund countenance, and turned over to airy dreams
with the modest request that the Court would bees
light oil him u possible, because—
“Tbe minst-el of tbe war had gone.
With the banjo on his knee;
He awoke to hear the sentries shriek,
There la a Light la the window for thee.”
A fins of five and coats was considered light enough
for Mr. Light, after which the Court “lighted out,”
saying to Jonacn—
“Lay on! lay on! Macduff,
Man wants but little here below;
And l*m to be Qaeen of the Msv,
Bo kiss me quick and go.

HOW 61TE GETS THEM.
One night X in the Fast pfenido.1, thlLk.ug that no ill
betided—
Or inch, st least, the vision was that gently stole my
slumbering senses o’er—
When suddenly there came a iapping—aye, forsooth, s
furious rapping—
A female throng it was, who claimed the right of en
trance at the door.
Waa like of this e’er heard before ?
With dauntless mien that band of beauties approached
the Tyler, as he the duties of his office faith
fully performed without tbe outer door;
What could he do, forsooth, but meet them, and
with his blandest smilo thus greet them ?
“ Ladies, wo, an Masons, sll your sex do ardently
adore ;
Pray, can I servo you? 8ay, sweet creatures, you
whom we so much adore ? **
Quoth the woman: “ Ope the door.”
“Do please excuse me.” said the TyleT—for he did
not wish to rile her—
(I mean the one that most defiant stood, and talked
his face before ;)
Bat surely yoa must be mistaken ; no side degrees to
night are taken;
Far different work is being now conducted on our
checkered floor;
No female ftet now tread the carpet spread upon our
mystic fleor I ”
They louder thundered; “Opo the dootl”
“As friends most kind, fair ones, I rank you, and for
your visit kindly thank you,
And fain would now admit yon all to seats upon the
inner floor;
So, with one small request comply you, and I no longer
will deny you;
No.no, dear souls, your enhance there be suie—I
will refuse no more—
Soft in my ear now breathe the password—the pass
word—this, and nothing more! **
Still louder ioared they: “ Ope tho door!”
Said be, “Jor woman, man nor devil, longer I cannot
be civil; **
Then, turning quickly, placed his hand u^on the
knob of that same door.
When wild out jumped the goat—our Billie—who at
the woman, like a silly creature, plunged; and
at one bound a dozen tumbled on tbe floor.
While some went rolling down the staircase to
the nether Hoot,
Loudly yelling, sll: “ Enough ! No more I *.
Incidents of Sunday's Services.
Tbe various places of worship in the city were well
attended, except at the Christian Church, where, on
account of the absence of the pastor, there was no
servloes. At ths evening service st the First Metho
dist Church, Rev. W. F. Cook preached sn eloquent
sad impressive sermon to a large congregation, from
the text “Work out your own salvation witn fear and
trembling, for it is God that worketh in you to do and
to will, at his own goed pleasure.” Mr. Cook, though
young, like Rev. Atticns Haygood, occupies a front
rank among the ministers of his denomination in this
section.
The exercises st ths Fourth Baptist Church st the
morning services were highly interesting. After a
sermon of great power from the pastor. Rev. F. M
Denial, the door of the Church was opened for tho re
ception of members. Whereupon, three united with
the Church {on the relation of Christian experience
and faith, and three by certificate of mem
bership from other Churches. Mr. and Mrs.
Miles G. Dobbins were among the latter.
They were weloomed to thejchnrch according to
the Baptist nmge of extending tha right hand of
Christian fellowship, which appears to be an eminent
ly proper manner. At five o'clock m the evening the
three candidates received at the morning service were
baptised by immersion et Mr, Dobbin's pond st West
End- A large audience attended upon the administra
tion of this ordinance.
Rev. J. B. Godfrey preached at Evans’ Chapel at 11
o'clock, a. U. and delivered a sermon which for ear
nestness of deliverymand powerful practical application
to hie hearers is seldom surpassed. In the evening
ths pulpit of the church was occupied by the pastor,
Ear. J. If. Dickey, who took as ths subject of his dis
course ths escape of the Israelites from Egypt through
the Dead See and the pillar of fire by night which en-
i m i pass ii fl end protected them. He run the analogy
between the children of Israel on this occasion and
the transition of the sinner from his sins to Christian
ity. Tbs subjset was fortunate and the sermoy an ef
fective one.
Rev. T. M- Harm and a large number of his con
gregation and others, left on ths West Point Railroad
early on Sunday morning to attend an interesting
meeting that Is progressing at Red Oak Station, ebon t
fifteen miles from ths oity. At 11 o’clock Mr. Harris
presChed one of his characteristic able sermons to an
tens# congregation of attentive end eager listeners.
The party returned to the city late in the evening,
feeling that the day had been appropriately spent.

The “Improved Order of Red Men.**
A TUB! OF THEM IF OUB MIDST.
For acme time past re here heard U Intimated in
certain circles that a lodge of the above order would
be instituted in our city, and time bee developed the
foot that a charter or dispensation has been secured
for a tribe to be instituted here et once. For the ben
efit of those not familiar with the history
of this organization, we will atate thai
lodg— or tribes of the order are numerous
in the Pacific States, end especially California, where
it Is fast opening considerable proportions. We know
nothing of Its Internal workings except as to the
adoption of tbe Indian mode of counting, measuring,
etc., and keeping or designating time, which last is by
the state of tbe moon. With the membership the
outside Oaacaeteon world Is recognized sod distin
guished, and the “pate face,” while there is no recog
nition whatever for tbs sable descendant* of Colonel
Hun. The following notice has been handed us by
a delegation of friends of ihe order:
*« All petitioners for charter of • Improved Order of
Bed Men * are requested to meet promptly at Odd
Fellows' Hall, corner of Broad and Mitchell strata,
on Wedaeeday. 20th Inst., at half-past 1 o’clock f. m.,
for ths purpose of electing officers. Tbe tribe will be
Instituted at 2 o'clock seme evening.”
We farther team that the work, which is peculiar
and in is impressive, and calculated to unite
strongly together the membership in ths bonds of
fraternal love. It is safe to say that, from a knowledge
of the character and standing of those who propose to
unite with the tribe bare, that is a decided iroprove-
Scxuai's DiVMuno*.—-The classic purlieus of tbe
Rotting Mills were considerably agitated on Sunday
afternoon in the negro quarters by an extended knock
down and drag ont in which several sable gods and
goddoasM were roughly handled by some of their own
spade#. The Police Judge, will, perhaps, this morn
ing give the finishing touche# to the affair.
Cast Mekxiso.—The camp meeting which has been
In program at Sandy Springs, about fourteen miles
above Che city, was attended by an immense crowd on
Sunday, b is estimated that more than two thousand
people were present. The sermon at 11 o’clock was
preached by Bar. Dennis F. Hammond, of this city,
aad la reported by those who were present to have
bean one of unusual power and force. The meeting
will be continued for several days to come.
Personal Intelligence.
Mr. E. L. Anthony, who graduated at the University
this Commencement, with each success, passed
through the city ou Sunday, for his homo in Texas.
He has been absent for tbe last four years. “Mark”
will do credit to his “Alma Mata” anywhere.
We had a pleasant call yesterday evening from Mr.
George W. Sasseen, Traveling Agent for the Musical
Eclectic, He will be along the State Road for a fort
night. We are glad to learn that he is succeeding
well with this excellent monthly.
Colonel Willis A. Hawkins, one of the leading crim
inal lawyers in Georgia, is in tho city.
Captain Tom Glenn will not be a caudiOate for Mayor
in the approaching canvass.
Miles Turpin remarked last night, in a conversation
with Mr. J. J. Toon, that there waa an inseparable
link between him (Miles) and Mr. Toon and Dr. Bard,
and Speights, as they had all been in the newspaper
business. Miles unhesitatingly reduced the price on
an ounce vial of modicine to twenty-five cents. Miles
never forgets old timos.
Colonel A. McBrinly Soeighis, of the Griffia News,
was around yesterday in an old last year's Greeley hat
and a white duck coat. He figured arouud and before
night received an invitation to be on hand at the Hop
Thursday evening, and expressed a determination to
be present. The Colonel is a bo9t amongst the ladies,
and hts presence will add much to the success of the
entertainment.
Tbe Chinaman Lo Jan Chang was interviewed yes
terday evening by Capt. Keely, W. D. Ellis, Col. T. P.
Westmoreland, and Howard Van Epps, on the corner
of Whitehall and Hooter streets. Th^y didn’t get

“The Chinaman” requests ns to Blate that he did
not have a fight the other day, as was reported by
some diabolical Herald reporter. He says that inva
riably when a fight opens he coils up his cautious pig
tail and travels homeward with all the haste of his
Celestial soul.
If our metropolitan merchants desire to keep up
their heretofore excellent trade with the merchants of
Middle Georgia, their interests ran be maintained to
a surprising extent .by advertising in that frisky and
widely-circulated paper, the Griffin Daily News. It
goes all over Batts, Spaiding, Meriwether, Pike, Mon
roe, Jasper, Jones, Talbot, and various other counties.
The consternation created last night when the offi
cers began nabbing the numerous “old blisters” who
were perambulating the streets, was highly amusing.
The first victim was a white woman.
A heavy one-horse load, on a two-wheel sulky, on
the streets yesterday, consisted of Messrs. Fechter
and Bch&ne, who, after rolling around awhile, broke
drown in lb.- presence of an admiring throng of tnec*

A Compliment to Yocno Ladies.—On Thursday
evening the young gentlemen of the city will tender
an evening entertainment to the young lady visitors in
the city at the Kimball Houso. There wore over two
hundred tickets issued yesterday, and the bop is ex
pected to be the grandest and gayest of the season.
There are known to be quite a number of visiting
young ladies at present spending the summer In the
ciiy, and it is to them that this compliment is tender
ed. Of course, it is not to be exclusive, but all will be
invited.
The committee would take it as a favor if any person
knowing of any young lady being in town who has not
been invited, so that such sn one may not be neg*
lected. This affair will be on the style of the nsual
weekly hop at the Kimball, and nothing will bo left
undone to ensnre s pleasant evening.
Death of Patrick Heffernas.—Died, bffiwecn 7
and 8 o’clock last evening, Patrick Heffernan, a native
of Ireland, but for several years a citizen of Atlanta.
He was at tbe time of his death a member of the police
force, and also of one of our fire companies. For up
wards of three months Mr. Hrffernan was suffering
from the effects of pleurosy, which terminated in ab
scess. An operation was recently performed success
fully, but the sufferer had been so much reduced
physically from long sickness that natnre finally suc
cumbed.
Mr. Heffernan was well known throughout tbe city
as an upright man and efficient officer. He had many
friends, and deserved them. His funeral will take
place this afternoon from the Catholic Church. Peace
to bis ashes!

[correspondence of the herald.]
You remember, gentle reader, when the shepherds
of old picked up their little stores and went away
through the wastes, in the wake of a bright particular
star ? You remember how these foot-sore men plod-
ded.on, at once enticed, cheered and guided by the
radiance of this luminary hung out in Heaven’s ex

With a similar feeliDg of enthusiasm—with a like
fervor of devotion—did your correspondent gather up

THINGS AT THE SPRINGS.
There are over five hundred people here, of whom
at least two hundred bask In the light of Geo. Collier’s
blonde and btend countenance, are warmed in the go
nial mellowness of Collier’s heart, and ravished by the
witchery of Collier’s matchless cuisine. This ib em
phatically a place of enjoyment—of real, hearty,
whole-souled Southern jollity. A place where fashion
gives way to frolic, and frivolity yields the palm to
pure and simple fun. Croquet engages the attention
of those who have pietty feet to show or tiny muscles
to develop; ten-pins stretch the robust nerves of those
who are -stronger; oskosh (for particulars, see small

putting on a clean collar, I anchored myself on tbe
left arm of Collier, that beautiful blonde, and swung
into the ball room. So conspicuous in brilliancy were
some of ths ladies, that I feel called upon to particu
larize; and yet good teste suggests that I shall remem
ber Miss Evan8’ advice, tendered in “MacariaV.
polysyllabic pages, whero she says: “Sink the segre
gate in the aggregate, perish tbe microcosm in the
macrocosm.”
Yet who could be in that ball room a second’s fla*h
of time, and not tremble in the blaze of the beauty of
Miss Lula S., of Burke county? As soon expect the
moth to remain in innocent ignorance of the winter
ing light that scorches him—the infatuation that
•days him. A girl who wasn’t busy, and didn’t have
any thing else to do, gave me the outlines of tome of
the more important toilets in the room. Miss S.
had on a handsome blue silk, pink roses, point
lace trimmings and pearls Mrs. Pink T., (the charm
ing chaperone of Miss S.) steel colored silk, black
lace trimmings, diamonds. Miss Alice L.. of Macon,
as piquant a little lady as ever lived, black lace over
white dress, looped with white roses, beautifully com
porting with her amber hair. Mias Mary H., of
Americus, as beautiful as her father is talented, lem
on colored satin, with muslin aud lace sash looped
with pink roses. Miss Leila R„ of Macon, a witching
brunette, tastily dresspd in crimson silk, with Urle-
ton.
Miss Mary D.. of Houston, a petite brunette, small
because precious; in pink Bilk. Tho most beautiful
dancer in the room waa Miss Roxie McC., of Milledge-
viUe, fresh from the scbool-room. Miss H., of Cov
ington, a conspicuous beauty, attracted many admir
ers. Hiding like a bashful violet, was Miss Magna R.,
of fiffYunriffh, ffit Alios Joo V* side, ner matcnic-sa
beauty sadly missed in the ball-room’s glare, and yet
all the more enchanting because of tho seclusion
in which it was hid—rendering Alisa Y’s,
a far more popular place to at leant one heart than
the hotels, crammed with the b.st aud fairest.
Among the prominent persons here we notice Mr.
Lee Eliis and lady, of Macon, who have contributed
more to the general enjoyment of the party than any
two influences in It, not excepting Collier’s fatness
desserts.
Mr. Lewis and family, Montezuma; Mr. and Miss
Danielly, Forsyth; Mr. O. T. Rogers and lady, Cov
ington; Mr. W. L. Clark, Columbus; Mr. Hack, Augus
ta; Mr. Thomas and Mr. Cox, Burke county; Mr.
Love, Thomasville; Colonel Willis Hawkins, Ameri
cus, (Georgias famous son, as renowed for his wit as
revered for his wisdom;) Mr. Proctor, Atlanta; Mr.
Oglesby, Atlanta; Mrs. Haraldson, Atlanta; Mr. N. C.
Munroe and Captain J. McIntosh Kell, Griffin; Gay
Jack Wimberly, of Houston, and Colonel II. 0. GleoD,
of Atlanta.
But with a body tired by a long day’s travel, and a
brain obscured by a bushel of dust—more or less—we
feel compelled to draw up, and conclude by advising
any one who don’t believe that Indian Spring will give
him a smack of what Eve felt before she bit the apple
to go and try it for a week. Jellaby.

Last night the Atlanta Cadets met at their Armory
for the purpose of drill and the election of an Orderly
Sergeant. The attendance was unusually full, and
the boys were unusually enthusiastic and active. It
is their intention to excel anything in tbe State in
the manuel of arms and military etiquette, and is a re
minder of tbe old day8 to see with what ease and
perfect military discipline these young Cadets are
governed by their officers. If they keep on for a few
months longer, they will not only be the pride of the
city, but of tbe whole State.
Orderly Sergeant Beck, finding It Impossible to
properly discharge his duties as a business nan, aud
give that attention to the company which wa* neces.
sary, tendered hit resignation, which, under the cir
cumstances, was accepted, and the company proceeded
to elect Mr. Charlie Guilford as his successor. Mr.
Guilford is a very popular young gentleman and his
election to that honorable position will give general
satisfaction to the company and Its numerous friends.
Tbe entire company is ordered to appear for drill at
the Military Park on next Friday afternoon. A folj
attendance is very desirable, as some new movements
will be inaugurated.
The Grandest Scheme of the Day.—Elsewhere will
be found the notice of Governor Br&xnlette of the next
drawing of the Kentucky Library Association. The
scheme is certainly one of the grandest on record,
embracing as it does tbe payment of fl.500,000 in
prizes, including a capital prize of a quarter of a mil
lion of dollars, and prizes of $100,000, $60,000 and
other laxgo turns. Another notable feature
is the number of prizos to the tickets,
being one in twelve—a larger proportion than
we can remember. When it if borne in
mind that every purchaser of a ticket can feel abso
lutely certain that the drawing will be fairly conducted
and that consequently, bis ticket will have a good
chance of winning a large prize, the opportunity af
forded of making a fortune bjr a small investment will
be seen. It is also tolerably certain that every one of
the tickets will be sold, as half of thorn have been sent
abroad, only thirty thousand remaining in this country
for disposal. Now is the time to try your luck at for
tune’s wheel.
The Fair.—Attention ie called to the announcement
of the fair of the Agricultural and Mecanical Associa
tion of Cherokee Georgia and Alabama. 8ome valua
ble prizes are offered. Tickets are on sale st several

lent, including choruses, qnortetts and solos. The
latter, both instrumental and vocal, was remarkably

At last the efforts of the Herald have met with suc

nt Address.
PR. HICKMAN ON TEMPERANCE.
At about a quarter past eight last night the First
Baptist Ctoupcb was filled by an audience numbering
hundreds of the first people of Atlanta, eager to hear
the eloquent Kentucky temperance lecturer. Dr. J.
J. Hickman.
After some appropriate music by the choir ol the
church, the proceedings sere opened with prayer by
the talented and esteemed pastor of that church, Rev.
E. W. Warren.
The speaker was then introduced by Captain John
Milledge, in a very few appropriate remarks.
Of the effort of Dr. Hickman, we cannot iretend to
give anything like an adequate idea in the short space
we can devote to it. He is an orator equalled by very
few, and excelled by none of his age, anthusiastic in
support of the noble cause he has espoused, be seem-
ed to throw his whole soul into his effort.
The Doctor took high ground. Thought that every
Christian man and woman as well as every friend of
temperance ought to lend their whole influence to the
temperance cause, and ought, by their teachings, by
their examples and by their votes to discountenance,
discourage and help to suppress the liquor traffic.
King Alcohol was an old and powerful enemy. He
had become to powerful that he was now about to
lay the tyrant.
nis wrongs and injuries were becoming so frequen^
and grievoua that tho people desired to know why
they must submit to them.
The people wore awaking to a sense of the great evils
of the liquor traffic and of intemperance, and would
soon rise in their might and put them down and leave
no stone t > mark the temples of their late idols.
Wrongs always beget resistance—revolutions among
the people when they become unbearable. He in
stanced tbe Reformation in tbe fifteenth century, and
the American revolution.
He animadverted rather severely cu the churches
for th< ir failure to encourage the temperance cause.
There were enough Christian men and women in At
lanta to suppress the liquor triffic here by a uuiti’d,
persistent effort In that rtwiinii
The speaker closed with a beautiful eulogy on wo
man and the power she exerts and can exercise to
wards the amelioration of the condition of the human
family.
A very faint idea of this excellent address can be
gathered from the above short sketch of tbe speaker’s
remarks.
We trust that Dr. Hickman may be influenced to re
peat it, in order tnat those of our citizens may hear
him who have not thus far enjoyed that privilege.
Dr. Warren announced before dismissing tho audi
ence that they would be glad to initiate thoee desirous
of uniting with the Good Templars, if they would
meet Dr. Hickman and himself at Georgia Lodge*
Good Templar’s Hall, to-night at 8J4 o’clock.

In the Griffin Cemetery.—A reporter at Griffin
among other things, noticed there, in a walk in the
cemetery, was the burial lot of Mr. John Milner, in
which there were tbo graves of five deceased wives of
that gentleman. Beside the grave of each wife
that of a child. The grave of one is marked “Died
April 30, 1848, aged 25 years;” another “Died January
27, 1650, aged 31 years;” the third “Died October 6,
1861, aged 29 years;” the fourth “Died July 18, 1868,
aged 26 years;” and the fifth was marked “Died Nov.
20, 1871, aged 30 years.”
Mr. Milner is said to be atill bale and hearty. Is a
man of character and respectability, and if his mis
fortunes have been heavy, it is on the principle that
the Lord chasteneth those He loves.

There was about the usual attendauce of
on change yesterday morning.
Vice-President W. J. Garrett prosided. The com
mittee on quotations reported lime at 40a50. No other
changes.
Colonel J. A. Stewart made tome remarks relative
to the necessity for the construction of waterworks in
this city.
Was one of the Water Commissioners of Rome.
They obtained their supply from s well. Tho proceeds
of the water more than pay tho interest on the water
bonds. Thinks Atlanta can be supplied also from
wells. Noble Brothers of Rome guaranteed water there
aud would do it here. Liverpool waa supplied for
many y ars by wells. Fine well system would coat
fifty per cent less than any system which would bring
water from the Chattahoochee.
Almost impossible to burn a bouse in Rome now.
Rates of insurance materially reduced. He doacribed
the engine In use at Rome and thought a similar one
would suit us.
Mr. A. C. Wyly stated that Mr. Anthony Murphy
says that a sufficient quantity of water could not be
obtained from wells in a freestone strata.
Colonel Stewart said all the scientific men of Romo
opposed tho system there, still the works there were a
success and could be made so here.
Theio being no further businoss ou motiou the
mooting adjourned.
