Entversitjr' Commencement Exercises—
Taesday’a ltcroril—Wednesday's Record—
An “Alinsni lIop,”mnl the Cnrlnin Falls.
Athens, August 2d,J871
Taking it for granted that CoL Jones, who
left yesterday morning, has, ero this, put on
record for tho benefit of the million readers of
ike Tzuamrn and Messenger everything of
interest pertaining to the Commencement exer
cises of the University of Georgia up to, and
including the Alumni dinner, and also the ora
tion of Mr. E. G. Simmons (of Macon,) before
tk« Demosthenian Society on Monday evening,
I take up the thread of correspondence cut by
kis departure, and proceed to wind it to the
end.
The programme for Tuesday morning was an
*^reas to the two societies by Colonel B. A.
> Thornton, of Columbus, who chose for his sub
ject “The Duty of the Hour.” I shall attempt
bo synopsis of his remarks, because such things
»kno8t always fail to satisfy either reader or
or *tor, and also because my space is limited,
The disorder and noise In tbe College Chape]
*kieh, I regret to say, has generally been more
pronounced than I recollect in many years to
hare heard, marred its effoct in a most discred
it.do manner, I pnt my condemnation of it on
record most emphatically, but how to put an
«ndto it I am not prepared to say. Many go
to such places with no other desire than to talk
*rtl laugh—to ‘-have fan,’’ and show their fine
-cithers, and while this is the case, one can
°aly protest, and wait for a higher civil!
• V.ioa to loach even the hardiest offenders
hotter—manners. Mr. Hill’s address the day
be fore was interrupted r.nd depreciated by the
same unseemly causes, to it will be seen that
they bavo almost grown into the dignity of a
system.
Tuesday evening, Mr. \V. T. Armistead, of
Oglethorpe connty, the orator for the Phi Kappa
Society, had a large audience, and made a capi
tal speech on the “Mysteries of Mind and Mat
ter." He gives promise of a bright future, if
ho supplements fine natural gifts by that energy
and steady, ploddiDg perseverance which alone
can raise and keep a man on a higher plane than
that occupied by his fellows.
To-day, as usual, was the day of all, and I
have never seen a larger crowd in the chapel.
The town looks a miniature city, when some
gala day summons all classes, sexes and condi
tions from far and near. Especially do our fel
low-citizens and citfzenesses of the favored color
andpoliticalpersuasionmake themselves to come
together in numbers most large, as a French
man would say. Some come to turn an honest
penny by divers and multifarious sorts of traffic,
most generally in the melon, fruit and “pies
and things” line, bnt Ihemzjority with no other
pnrpose than to enjoy a big loaf. Athens is a
very populous place for one day in tho year, at
least, and if she were ambitions and up to sharp
tricks like some other places I know, she would
certainly manags to bavo her census taken on
this occasion. It would ba “a good enough
Morgan” to fool people at a distance, at least.
Herewith I append a programme of the exercises
of this morning. With the speeches of Messrs.
Glenn and Murphy I was much ploased—espe
cially with that of tho former. There was
about it a “snap” that positively refreshed one,
and for five minutes, certainly, made the listen
er forget all the disagremens of heat, the crowd,
etc. • Dr. Miller's address wa3 pointed, pithy,
eloquent—out of tho beaten track, and justlong
enough. Tho Doctor knows exactly where tbe
happy medium in speech-making lies, wherein
ho sots an example which perspiring humani
ty is correspondingly grateful for, and which it
earnestly commends to the consideration of all
who have not mado tho same discovery. But to
tho programme:

A much needed shower fell this afternoon,
and has effectually settled the very aggressive
dust that has been one of tbe annoyances of
this week. It must have been worth thousands
to fanners hereabouts, as just that event was
indispensable to making the com crop. If
general, that crop, in this section, has been pnt
very nearly, if not quite, beyond tbe contin
gency of failure. It was also the one thing
needful to make the “Alumni Hop” to-night
what I am persuaded it will be, a delightful oc
casion. That affair completed and Commence
ment is over, the curtain falls, the lights are pnt
out and finis must be written upon the record.
Let ns hope that tho good old town and its ge
nial people may witness many more, each one
outshining the other in all tho elements that
compose that magical word, success.
As for the University I f eel in my very bones
that she has taken a “new departure,” indeed,
towards a future of greater power and prosperi
ty than even the most sanguine among ns
scarcely realize, now. A start has been made
in the right direction, and friends more numer
ous and powerful than were suspected have
been developed by the gathering of the Alumni
and their deliberations. Now let the Alumni
gird np .their loins for the straggle, and pre
pare to supplement the efforts of the friends
of tho University in the next Legislature by
earnest, persistent, united action. Let every
one of them constitute himself a missionary in
this good work, and the resnlt cannot be doubt-
fuL They have a responsibility upon them
that themselves have invited, and to be
laggard now would cover them with reproach.
For one I cannot permit myself to donbt either
their earnestness or their power, if properly
directed. R.

In our Southern climato, tho system is constantly
absorbing malarious poison, tho firHt effects of
which are to stupify the Liver; costiveness comes

burning fever. To prevent this, koop year Liver
stimulated w.th some good vegetable medicine, and
tho TONIC LIVER BITTERS Is hotter for it than
anything. Incorporated in it are Cinchona Bark,
Gentian and other valuable vegetable tonics.
The dose is from a tahlospoonful to a wine glass
full two or three times a day, or often enough to
produce a healthy action on tho bowels. TheBitters
should only be taken when yoa need them, and
your feelings will tell yon when.

We call attention to the following extract froma
letter from J. W. Burke, Esq.:
Macon, Ga., March 23,1871.
“Wo have had ono of tho U. S. Gaslight Comps
ny’s Machines, in operation since the 10th of No
vember, 1870, and it is perfectly satisfactory to ns
in its general working and cheapnoss. We paid the
Macon Gaslight .Company for four months of last
year and the year previous—viz: November, De
cember, January and February—6399.56. In using
this Machine our gas for the four corresponding
months cost us 6114—thus saving us in that time
6285.50. The light is quite as good as that of the
City Gas Company, and has the advantage of being
entirely under our control to use as we please.
During tho eovero weather in December it burned
without intermission, not being at all affected by
the freeze We see no trouble in the Machine or
the light, and cheerfully recommend it.**
