An Auction Bazaar.—Next Thursday night, we u
derstand, the ladies of the Sixth Baptist Sunday
School are to have an “Auction Bazaar” in the build
ing on Whitehall street, two doors below the carpet
store of Messrs. Chamberlin, Boynton A Co.
We are gratified to learn that our merchants are
making them liberal donations in various articles cf
merchandise, and that the generous ladies of the Sec
ond Baptist Church have not only promised them
numbers of handsome cakes, ice croam, etc., bat
rendering every aaaistance possible for them to do in
carrying out their commendable enterprise.
The energy with which these “workers for the Mas
ter” are prosecuting their plana, and the success tnat
has characterized their every other undertaking to
build up the most flourishing mission school in the
city, we think undoubedly gives promise of disap
pointment to none who go to their Bazaar expectiug to
have a good time.
The Mule.
SarTovv K.cnpc or a Railroad Prraldcnt —
A Despicable Animal.
Tbo negro ond mule ore inseparable companion!!,
and like) the Hiaermtban bow, •• l .elei, each witbool
tbo other. Tbla bas always been the expressed opio
ion of Colonel George W. Adair, wbo is now President
of the Georgia Western JUilroed. This gentleman's
well known relish of a practical joke is proverbial, ant
he la never seemingly more happy than when relating
some amusing incident in bis own inimitable style.
On yesterday afternoon he paid a visit to where the
convicts were at work on a section ol bis road, near
the city; and while there, and seeing the long line of
mule# and carts which were moving along, to and fro,
without any one along to gntde them, he could not re
frain from spinning a characteristic yarn about
tb antics of a certaio mule. Several of the overseers
and employees were standing around when he related
how a man had taken refuge from the sun's perpen-
dicnlsr rays under the shade of a spreading beech,
and lay recumbent, enjoying the Stful breezes and the
sombre frothiness of the country newspaper Along
the dusty road which passed by this retreat came jog
King a negro, mounted on a mule, both apparently fast
asleep. Aa the somnolent pair approached the spot
some wicked spirit of the place gave the paper a fort,
which waa no sooner seen and heard than the mule M
mules only know how, instantly “swapped ends." and
leaving the negro sprawling in the dirt, took his de
parture under full sail. The negro, half ralatag him
self, and wiping the dnat from eyes and month,
watched the retreating mule for aome time in sib-nce,
hut at length, unconscious of au auditor, gavo ex
pression to thiaphilosophical soliloquy—
“Dat’a what makes me 'spiae a mule I"
The Colocal had just finished and the crowd were
enjoying the recital, and none more than the Colonel
himself, when one of those sturdy animals, wiih a
heavily loaded cart, came poking along the beaten
path, all alone. The #r«t thing noticed by the crowd
waa a forward movement of Colonel Adair, and a
■harp cry of pain. In an instant it was seen that the
ponderous wheel of the cart had atrack the President
» quartering blow from behind, which came near
Mocking him down, which produced the cry Of pain
He waa standing on the track unmindful of the ap-
proach of the mule, who was equally aa unmindful ol
the President; hence the collision. The animal never
halted, bat pulled away as though nothing had hap
pened. Had the blow prostrated him and the cart
passed over his person, it would have resulted in the
mow serious consequences. As it wss. he came to
town complaining of having a good deal of tlu Preat-
dsnttal “atlffneea" knocked out of him. and a aenaa-
tloo on the opposite aids from where the wheel struck
aa If hla “spleen" arrangements had been Interfered
with. As the whole affair was a commingling of the
grave with the ridiculous. It Is a debatable question
whether to laugh or mourn. If, by ibis morning, the
Prealdent should ha at his poet, »u right ; otherwise,
he recital of this Incident will be property atoned for.
Hoard of Trustees take into conalderation such prupo
sais and determine In its discretion, upon the location
of the Institute, at such place aa it deems proper.
Resolved, 4. That firmly believing in the worthiness
of our object, we do hereby pledge ail of our iuflu-
individually and collectively to it* attainment,
and we will allow no local preferences to offer any
impediment to the early and successful reiaUbli.li-
iuent of the Georgia Military Institute.
Resolved, 5. That the Secret*!y of thia Convention
Le required to send a copy of the*o resolutions to His
Excellency, the Governor, with the request that he
submit the same especially to the next General
Assembly with such recommendation aa he may deem
necessary to accomplish the end proposed.
Resolved, 6. That this Convention do earnestly re
commend it* members to enrol their name* aa mem,
bers of the Association of Ex-Cadets and Officer* of
the Georgia Military Institute, to which Association
this Convention hereby transfers the guardianship of
the interests of the Institute.

mf Griffin, Prof. Hoge of Alabama, the editors of the
[city papers and visiting members ol the pres*.

On motion of Captain Jno. Milledge. the Conven
tion took a recess until 11:45 at which time it re-os
sembles to heir Gov. Smith’s address.
THE ASSOCIATION
of ex-Cadets and officers w*9 then called to order by
Captain Jno. Milledge, President.
After some unimportant remarks relative to who
were and who were n t members of the association,
on motion, the President appointed a committee con
sisting of J. P. Harris, W. E. H. Searcy, L. C. Ran
dall, J. F. Crutchfield and J. E. Benton, to report

objects of the Association.
His remarks were eloquent, to the point aud well re
ceived.
General Joseph E. Johnston, the only one of the im
mortal trio left to us, would be a member of the
Board of Trustees.
Georgia was only behind Virginia in failing to have
re-erected this Institute. General Johuson was will
ing to do for Georgia at the Georgia Military Institute,
what the immortal Lee had done for Virginia at Wash
ington University, after the war.
T. M. Elyra offered the following resolution:
Resolved, That a committee be appointed for tbo

and ex-Cadets of the Georgia ^Military Institute, from
its inception to its suspension, and that said reader be

press wbo belong to this association be relieved from
the payment of initiation fees.
Col. Robertson opposed the resolution. Thought
no Cadet wanted to be placed on the list of benefi
ciaries.
Air. McWhorter offered an amendment exempting
farmers, railroad men, doctors, etc., from Initiation
fee*.
Mr. Dnnwoody withdrew his resolution.
A motion to reconsider the resolution Axing initia
tion fee at five dollars waa lost.
The following resolution was introduced by A.
smith, Esq.: That a committee of five members of

ibe Ex-Cadets and officers, and urge upon thorn the
propriety and necessity of having their names enroll

papers in the State favorable to the cause to publish
the same so that it will reach those now absent. The
following is the committee: A. Smith, Mr. Randle,
Jno. T. Cooper. Shorter and Prica.
On motion the Association adjourned till 4 p. m.
The Convention met at 13. u to hear the address of
Governor Smith, President Harrison in the chair.
On motion, a committee of three—General F. W.
Caper*, Colonel Roberson and Gen. P. M. B. Young—
was appointed to escort the Governor into the halt.
On motion, persons in the galleries were invited to
seats on the floor during the address.
Taie committee appointed for that purpose escorted
Governor J. M. flmitb into the hall.
He was intioduced to the Convention by Colonel J.
W. Robertson, as Ihe man whom the people of Geor
gia recognize as the only successor of Cbaa. J. Jen
kins—Gov. James B. Smith.
The Governor delivered a characteristic short and
sensible speech, lie said he had had but little time
to prepare a speech, and consequently would detain
the business of the Convention bat a tow minutes.
He was heartily In favor of the re-establishment of
the Georgia Military Institute. It had dons
much for the H’ate in the past—he believed
it would do more in the future. We hope to be
ext rapt from future wars, but have no right to believe
vo will always be so. We need some men among ns
who have military educations, A military education
fits a man for almost any avocation In civil life. Those
who have received good military education#, make
good lawyers, doctors, merchants, farmers, etc. He
favored It mainly on the ground of the promotion of
the great interests of education. The ignorant do
not properly appreciate the importance of education.
Those who have drank most deeply feel most deeply
the need of more knowledge. Almost oae-half of the
adult population of this Btate cannot rend and write.
To do sway with this state of things, ws can't pay
twenty dollars for the education of every boy every
year. It would bankrupt the Blots in six moths. It
must be done by fostering the higher Institutions of
learning—moke them free aa air, if poaaibl*. Put
• dozen educated men and women in a community,
aLd they banish ignorance as the sun banishes derk-
neas. The State ought to do this work—give $35,000.
If that is not enough, give ell that is
have been frittering away our means by working at the
wrong end. The old poor school system was a poor
thing indeed. The common school system cannot be
up to a proper standard without a propvr fos
tering of these higher in*titut.ou* of learning.
He does not object to private citizens contributiug
to this object. Some aay we are too poor. Thank
God, knowledge is within the reach of the poor as well
as the rich. Out of our poverty he wss willing to give
aa mnch as may be necessary, and it would be like
bread cast upon the waters. Some don’t like to edu
cate soldiers. When a man knows he may have to
fight, it 1* the part of wisdom to prepare for it. Be
ready if the emergency comes. All knowledge does
good. If education does nothing else, it expauds in
dividual mlfids, and extends individual usefulness.
The greatest Peace Congress in the world was held
just before onr late war. A good sign of war is to bear
everybody cry peace. Wants to whip when ho Agbts.
Ho danger of a collision between this aud similar
Institutions.
Don't matter what Institution educates the people
so the people are educated.
The College of Agricultural and MecLauic Arts was
established to teach specially those branches of learn
ing which relate to the agricultural and mechanic sits,
including mustering.
Military tactics in the meaning of that act of Con
gress did not mean a military education.
We don’t want Congress or anybody else to confer
this charity upon us. We want the State to establi h
the Georgia Military Institute where our sons may be
taught all that is necessary to the defense of tbeir
homes. Must not hide behind what Congress has
dooe for ns and say there is no need for us to act.
Let Congress give as all they please, and then after
we have done all we can much will remain undone.
If you hurt the University it will only be an evidence
that it ought to be hurt. Hot afraid of the Institute’s
hurting the University. Hopes to live to see that the
Georgia Military Institute has done as much good as
the University. Wish we hod an institution of learning
in every county in the State, and that they were as
free a* air. Then we would have an educated people.
An additional tax of two or three mills on each tax
payer annually would soon build and endow half a
dozen institutions of learning in the State. We weie
too p«or to get along without institutions of learning.
In conclusion, be hoped that the Institute wonld
be in the future as in tbo past, an honor to the peo
ple of the Stats.
Gen. P. M. B. Y’oung in response to loud cslls, said
he did not come here to make a speech; had a pro
found contempt for politicians; waa twelve hundred
miles from here when he learned that this Convention
would meet. The greatest indignation ever put upon
him waa b, a younger Cadet the other day, who said
he did not graduate at the Georgia Military Institue.
Sixteen graduated in hi* class—a'l were dead but
four—he had never received any commission which he
was so proud of as the diploma be received at the
Georgia Military Institute. This Institute must and
should be iebuilt. All through the General was very
eloquent. AU our scores are not settled yet. Prussia
never forgot the Injuries inflicted upon her by the first
Napoleon. 8ixty-four years from that time a
great general who was then but a Cadet,
victorious Prussian’* into France
and humiliated the proud eagles ot France. If the
State refuses—and he had no idea she would—he
would be one of fifty gentlemen who would subscribe
three times the amount the State has bora asked for,
for the immediate i e-establishment of the Georgia Mil
itary Institute.
The foUowing resolution was intro need by Col. J.
W. Robertson, and adopted:
Resolved, That this Convention sensibly appreciates
its indebtedness to Uls Excellency, Gov. J. M. Smith,
for the encouragement given by his forcible and elo
quent remark* to this body, and that we hereby tender
Gov. Smith our sincere thanks for the interest mani
fested by him in the ebjccts of this Convention.
The thanks of the Convention were tendered to Gen.
P. M. B. Yeung, for his timely remarks; also to the
President aud Secretaries of the Convention for the
able discharge of their daties. *
On motion, the Convention adjourned sine die.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
Puisuaut to adjournment the Association cf ex-Ca-
dets and officers of the G. M. 1. met at 4 p. m. Capi.
John Milledge, President, in the chair.
Col. J. W. Robertson moved that Gen. George P.
Harrison be added to tha Provisional Board of Trus
tees. This motion prevailed, and Geu. Harrison re
ported the following Provisional Board of Trustees of
the Georgia Military Institute: From ex-Cadet Associa
tion—CoL J. W. Robertson of Cobb, Gen. P. M. B.
Y’oung of Bartow, Gen. Bobt. H. Anderson of Chath
am, Col. John Milledge of Fulton, Col. E. F. Lawson
of Burke, Col. Milo Freeman of Bibb C *1. John W.
Robinson of Washington, Capt. L. J. IIill of Coweta.
C*pb W. E. H. Searcy of Spalding, Gan. Geo. P.
Harrison or Auburn, Alabama. From the Bute at
large—Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, Hon. Joseph E,
Brown, Hon. David Irwin, Hon. Joseph B. Cuniniing,
Hon. W. A. Huff.
On motion of Julius L. Brown, the nomination*
wore confirmed by tbe Association.
On motion of Colonel James W. Robertson, it was
resolved that when tbi* Convention adjourn it adjourn
to meet on the firat Wednesday in September, 1874, in
Marietta, Ga.
On motion of Julius L. Brown, the minutes of the
morning’s session were read.
A goodly number of the Association signified their
intention of going to Marietta to-morrow.
On motion, the question of fixing the initiation fee
waa reconsidered, and the matter referred to the C. m-
mittee on Constitution and By-Laws.
On modon General Wm. Phillip* of Marietta was in
vited to address the Association which lie did briefly
and pleasantly. He gave a very interesting statement
of fact* connected with the history of tbe Institute
during the early years after the war.
The turf from the grounds was taken to decorate
the graves of tbe Federal dead. The tree3 were used
and destroyed. It a a* proposed to appropriate the
property and apply it to other uses. In order to save
it a dozes leading citizens of Marietta organized and
applied to the Senate and House of Representatives
for the grounds for educational purposes.
They secured it with the private understanding
that when the Georgia Military Institute ceuld
be rebuilt the property was to be redonated.
Tbe Trustees of that Academy filed a deed to that
property with Governor Smith, within a week alter his
Inauguration, conveying the property to the State for
ihe Institute. (Applause.)
He made an eloquent appeal for the rebuilding of the
Institute on the some old hill in Marietta. Marietta
feels a mother’s love for the Institute and its Cadets.
They are her children. A brighter page has yet to be
written in Confederate history than that of Job Ruff.
Comp lived and died a soldier and filled a soldier’s
grave, according to General Lee’s statement; so of At
kinson, Tucker, Patton and Johnson.
The conclusion of this speech was greeted with loud
applause.
On moti< n, tbe Association adjourned to meet in
Marietta on the first Wednesday in September, 1874.

During the Concord Baptist Association, at Owon-
ton, Kentucky, last week, in the “State” meeting of
“sweet” Owen, the Rev. G. C. 8. preached an impres-
sivesermon, which deeply touched an old gentleman
in the audience, doubtless a good political specimen of
what Owen once was. On being told that the preacher
had been once a “Yankee” general, be seemed won
der-struck. At the close of the sermon he approached
the preacher, and taking him by the hand, said “They
tell me you were a ‘Yankee’ general in the Federal
army?” “Yes,” waa the reply, “and I tried to do my
duty.’’ “A Yankee! and converted?” "Yet.” “And a
preacher ot the gonpel?” “Yes.” “Well, well,” said
bo, “miracles will never cease.”—Exchange.
Our youDg fellow townsman Howell Glenn, made a

Apropos of tbe preseufc discussion of “Cfesarism” is
the following dtfinitiou of the original Julius: “Julius
Ca’sailsm—an ancient Roman of celebrity. He adver
tised to tbe effect that he bad rather be first at Rome
than second in a email visage. II* waa a man of
great muscular strength. Upon one occasion he
threw au entire army across the Rubicon*
A General named Pompey met him
in what wss called the “tented
field,’ but Pompey couldn’t hold a Romau can
dle to Julius. Wa are assured upon the authority
of Patrick Henry that ‘Ciesar had his Brutus.' The
unbiased reader of history, however, will conclude
that, on tbe contrary, Brutus rather had Csesar. Thus
Brutus never struck me as an unpleasant man to
meet, but he did Caesar. After addressing a few oral
remarks to Brutus in the Latin language, Ca aar ex
pired. His subsequent career ia without interest.

A barber, while cutting the hair of a rural customer,

Nome Tall Cotton.
An mthasiMtic planter was telling a %chopper stout
the height of cotton stalks in Dougherty, when a
Yankee tourist present remarked that he could readi
ly believe it, although he had never been in that sec
tion of Georgia. He said that recently whilst visiting
a plantation in the vicinity of Pilatka, Florida, he
witnessed e flogging, administered by an angry moth
er of the colored way of doing things, to one of her
children, e boy about twelve years of age, who there
upon sold he wonld drown "hisseif,” and watching
hla opportunity, slipped away unobserved. A* soon
M bis absence wm discovered, a hue aud cry was
raised, and “all hands” started in search of the miM-
lag "chile.” A track dog preceded tbe party In
search, and after following a trail for some distance,
persisted in howling around a spot where the track
seemed to have given ont. A close look revealed noth
ing; bnt s nigger who had confidence in ”de dorg,”
ascended a cotton stalk and found the liltle “nig”
embowered in the topmost branches, sound asleep,
with his thnmb in hi* mouth.
Tha Dougherty man fainted, aud the Yank walked
off. saying, “I gues* I have seen some ‘coiling’ my
self.”

Not Straw*, bat Judgment.
To the Editor* of thf. Herald :
A communication in your paper of the 2d, under the
head of " Straw*, not Judgment,” doe* great injustice
alike to the gentlemen who acted as judgM and the
committee of arrangement# in tbe award of prize*.
Now, if “Observer” had been an observer in fact,
tho communication referred to would have never ap*
p are<l in the {taper.
To all present the statement of one of the Judges
was veiy plain, and could not but be understood, viz:
that between Mis* Crew and MIm Young they could
not decide, and the committee of arrangements had
agroed to furnieh another prize like the first, when
each wm to receive one of equal value; also, another
to be presented to Mlsa Paris for her fine effoi t.
These prizes are being prepared, and will be ready
at an early day. When they are ready, "Observer”
can have the satisfaction of seeing them all presented
and justice done
"A matchUss pair.

Col. J. A. Btcwsrt made am« rema ke ou water
works. He commenced by stating that water works are
absolutely necessary to Atlanta, m well a* for present
protection as future prosperity; that never in a single
Instance had water works been abandoned where once
established. He gave the cost of the system in Rome
which supplies the city, and which Is capable of sup-
plying 10,000 inhabitants; and also the approximate
cost cf their introduction here, m proposed, remark
ing that, in his opinion, the estimate of the Commis,
sioners is too low. Taking the Chattahoochee liver as
the source, he places the probable cost at five or six
hundred thousand dollars, including the distribution
through the city. He said that eight mile* of eixteen
inch pipe three fourths of an inch thick will coat
$234,000. In reference to the system st Rome,
which ia supplied from a large well, he stated
that it wm self-sustaining, aud it pays the interest
the bonds. He is anxious for an experiment to be
made on the well tystem here, as it can be dono with
a small cost.
