Interesting papers were read, giving an ao-
eoant of tbe rise and early history of Methodism
in this country, beginning with mere field
preaching, as in England, and advancing step

in tbe nation.
In 1773 there was bnt one conference, six
oirenita and station*, ten preachers and 1,160

Milledge, looking to tbe restoration of an inati
lotion, which though of comparatively modern
origin, has yet added imperiabaUe laurel* to the
escutcheon of tbe commonwealth. Wben Gen.
Sherman advanced hie vandal horde upon At
lanta, the oadela took the field, and in line of
battle aided for dajt in keeping beck the in
vaders.
For discipline, drill, ud esprit da corps, boys
tbongh they were in years, they yet commanded
tbe admiration of the whole army. Many of
the former graduates too, held high position*
under the Gonfederate banner, and illustrated
Georgia by their deeds, and wounds, ud death,
on many a well fosgbt field. Anderson and
Harrison of Chatham, Winn, of Liberty, Gen.
P. M. B. Young, ud ascore of others whooonU
be mentioned, shed a balo of glory about their
Alma Mater.
When the bloqdy Sherman, the fire fiend of
the war, drove out onr forces from Marietta,
his first order we* to burn that infernal nest
where rebtl warriors were batched and reared.
The toroh wu accordingly quickly applied, and
soon tbe noble oollrge pile wa* in ashes, and
the grassy campus and commanding heights, a
bleak and desolate rain.
To- day, it is proposed either there,or on seme
other eligible site, to erect again, with increased
splendor and grandeur, tbe Military College of
Georgia as a perpetual nursery of the valor anil
chivalry of her sons. Last Jnly, fired with this
ambition, abont forty ex-cadets assembled at
Marietta, and organized, permanently, by elect
ing Captain John Milledge, the worthy icion of
a noble etock, chairman of an exeentiva hairi
ness committee, ud W. H. Danwody, Secretary.
Tbe object of the association was to perpetnato
the traditions of tbs Institute, and if possible,
resurrect and restore it. This is the more neo-
eatary, as large numbers of onr spirited young
men are oonatutly leaving the State in qaeat
of a military edncatlon elsewhere.
Tbe plan proposed, was the passage of a bill
throngb the General Assembly incorporating
the Institution, naming a board of trnsteea, of
wbioh tbe Governor abonld be a member ex-
officio, and donating tbe snm of $50,000 as a
bailding food for it. Owing to various caane*
tbe bill, when pnt on its passage, failed by nine
voles only.
The delegation from Bibb gave it a harmoni
ons and energetio support. Afterwards tbn
appropriation was stricken ont and the act
passed. Governor Bmitb, however, very prop
erly withheld his auction to it, on tbe gronnd
that no nnbsidy bad been voted tomake it effec
tive. He was warmly in favor of the bill tHOi
tbe appropriation, bnt believed that its passage
nnaepportod by State patronage wonld kill off
the enterprise hereafter.
It is proposed now to call a convention of ex
eadeta and professors, to meet In Atlanta on
the first of September, to devise ways and moans
to endow tbe institation, end secure tbe oo-op-
eretion of the Legislature In this important
work. Gen. Johnson, Col. Hardeman and many
of our beat citizens will lend all of their ener
gise to the promotion of tbta laudable enter
prise.
We need not nrge upon the members cf tbe Leg
ist&tnre and every patriot son of Georgia, the
wisdom and propriety of enoonraging, both by
word and notion, the noble objeot In view. All
must concede its utility end importance, and no
niggardly policy or contracted process of rea
soning should be allowed to defeat it. We in
vite the earnest support of tbe entire press of
tbe State in its behalf, and donbt cot that the
graduates and ex cadets of the Institute will also
keep tho ball in motion nntil anoeaa has been
snared.
Orange In School Honrs.
A movement is on foot in Pniledelpbia to get
thi teaobers of schools to divide the school
boom, so as to relieve the yonnger pupil*, by
confining them for a shorter time then those
non advanced. Sensible teachers in the South
have always pursued this course.
Another reform, however, is much need el
Tbe bears of close confinement and atndy for
eC the pa pi It, are too mnob protracted. Parents
oet aa tbongh the teacher was hi* hired laborer,
end they moat therefore get as mnah herd work
oat of him es poeatb’e. They forget their little
one* ere subjected to the same ordeal, ud such
abort righted eoonomy may result In permanent
physical injury to them, besides retarding in
stead of promoting their mental progress.
From four to five hoars per diem is long
enough to task the yonng intellect, say from S
> x lotr.x, with one honr’e intermission.
Tvo «malfire, thus making the school u all day

eihanat the frames of tbe pupils, without any
practical benefit.

Investigation of the Causes of the
Wreck of the City of Washington.
A Court of Inquiry ia in session at Halifax,
who are bnsily engaged in taking the deposi
tions of tbe eeveral officers and geamen attached
to the ship, to elicit, if possible, tbe canse of
the late oatastrophe.
From the testimony thna far given in, it ap
pears that althongh enveloped In a dense fog,
and observations by mean* of the heavenly
bodies ware impossible, no soundings whatever
were ordered and the abip proceeded blindly
on ber course, trusting to tbe imperfect eaten
lotions whioh bad been made for tbe variations
of tbe compass. These were based upon tbe
position of tho Polar star, which was ascertain
ed once daring tbe voyage and entered upon
tbe scrap log, which wa* lost nnbaeqnently.
Afterwards tbe variations were taken from tbe
Admiralty chart, and necessarily conld only
approximate to tbe troth.
It was also proven that important variations
must have taken plaoe in the compass, by tbe
presence of the large quantity of s'eel, which
composed a portion of tha cargo. No fog bells
or warnings of any kind were beard before the
vessel struck. That tho captain was perfectly
aobar daring the entire voyage was conclusively
n. Also that he bad never been too sick
to attend to bis duties, and bad not even taken
off bis clothes daring the last six days of the
trip.
The examination ia abont olosed, but jndg-‘
cent in tbe case has not yet been rendered by
the coart. Tbe failure to inatitnte constant and
earefnl soundings aa the ship neared tbe end of
her voyage, wsa inexonsable, and pnblio senti
ment rnn* strongly against the commanding
officer for 'hie cntpablo neglect of his doty.

From many sources, we have been assured,
that a similar arrangement here the present
summer, wcnld be highly acceptable to both
ministers and people. It wonld also afford some
partial respite to the ardnons labors of onr
falthfnl pastors, and allow them the lnxnry of
listening to each other's discourses.

A Hxavx Yxtnicf.—The New York T..bo* e

A dispatch from the West Informs us that
Miss Linda Gilbert, who Is well known to
benevolent people In New York through her
exertions in collecting money to buy books for
prisoners, has recovered six cent* damsees for
libel from The Chicago Evening Post. That is
rather an odd verdict. The Poet asserted soin*
time ago that Miss Gilbert w« a handsome bnt
crafty woman, who had misappropriated the
fond* she oollected for a charitable pnrpof) in
Chicago, and sdvtsed New York to beware of
her. If the charge was ustiae, six cents soems
very little to pay for It; and if It wm true, why
should The Post be fined anything at all ? Per
haps the jnry considered the compliment to
Miss Gilbert’s personal charm* a set off against

The t’enlrmlenal.
A* this subject is creating intense feeling in
the Established Chnrch of England, we append
an extract from the New York World of the
16th inert, giving an asconnt of the late meet
ing in Exeter Hall, over which Lord Shaftsabnry
presided:
A numerously at'ended meeting wrt held last
evening in Exeter Hall, London, for the purpose
of protesting against the introduction of tbe
confessional into tbe Chnrch of Eogland. Tbs
meeting wa* called by tbe Chnrch Association.
The clergy was well represented, and ladles at-
teudrd it: € xceptionslly ls-ge number*. Amon%
the varion* celebrities who were unable to be
present, bnt had written to the Secretary depre
dating tbe system of snricnlar confession in tha
Cbnreb of England, were the Marquis of Devon
shire. the Rev. Lord Dynevor, Admiral 8nllivan,
the Dean of Carlisle, Canon Kyle and Canon
Miller.
The Eirl of Shaftesbury, who preaided, rd-
dressed the meeting n M*nda of therefoima-
tion in the Chnrch of England and frien 1 ’ of
farther refoimetion in the seme Cbnreb. Tbe
sentiment w»s r-eeivei with pmloneed cheer,
ir.p, wti'rb increased wk-u His Lordship dosig.
cated Ibe attempt to introduce the oenfearionat
into the Chnrch of England as a foul and wricked
attack upon the integrity and parity of the
Chnrch. end aasrred tbe meeting that it sra*
time they abonld exnreas their determination to
stard to :-e There wa* m endeavor, ho
said, that they wonld not make, no labor they
wonld not endnre, nudsr God'* grace, rather
than see the Chnrch of England brought down
to tbe very depths of pollution. (Lond obeers.)
A petition had been presented by 400—an
ominous number—tbe number that sat at Jeze
bel's teble—(gTeat cheering)—clergymen of
tbe Cbnreb of England to tbe Upper Honao
of Convocation, tod their prayer was that, in
view of the widespread and ioeres’iog nao
of sacramental confession, the venerable hones
might consider the advisability of providing for
the education, selection and licensing of duly
qnslifisd confessor*. (Hooting and hisiing.)
If the petition had been placed before that
meeting he asked his hearers whet they wonld
have said. “Away with the nnoleen thing “
(Renewed cheering ) Bat if it had been
petition for tbe abolition of episcopeoy or for
the removal of their Lordshipe from the Honse
of Lords that had been presented to tbe Upper
Honse of Convocation, they would not have
pondered for a moment in their deoison.—
(Cheer*.) Bat this petition was reoeived in a
msnner inconceivably hateful. It was disenssed
and deliberated upon. (Indignation and cries
of “disgraceful!”) Convooation considered
the position a serious error, and referred it to
committee. (Hissing and Kentish fire.)
What that meeting wonld say to the petition
would be, “Away with this foal rag; it Is the
poilntion of the Red Lady of Babylon.”—
(Great cheering.) The reoeption which tbe
petition reoeived at the hands of tbe Gonvo-
sstion he designated a* mealy-mouthed, oon-
tcmptibly disgraceful, unworthy of reason
able men. and, more unworthy still, of Epis
copal men, ho showed that they were going
Homewards, and that many were already in
Some itself. (Cheers.) His Lordship then
pro-op ), d t;, d—crihe the system of sscramenra!
confection, frequently Interrupted by exerns-
sions of indignation, and tho mention of Dr.
Pasey’s name called down lond booting and

not tho reanlt of invention, bnt of experience
(Enthusiastic cheeriog.) He suggested a test

whole confessional wonld go to the wind. It
wr - to appoint female confessors, and then tbe
confessional boxes would be broken up in six
weeks. (I.-ind chc r*.) He r ked who was to
blame for the institntion of tbis system in tho
Chnrch of England ? (Cries of “Ihe Bishops,”
and cheers.) If the chnrch benished her prin.
ciples, he said, let her go to the wind, and all
the Bishops w;th her. (Immense cheering )

DAT DISPATCHES.
Tbe Atlantic and Great Western
Canal*
Tbe New Orleans Herald contains the follow
ing Washington dispatch, dated July 16th:
Georgia is very mnch undecided as to wheth
er the Atlantio and Great Western Canal or
Oca it Water Line will most benefit theSonth.
The majority of the people favor the Cosit
Water Line, claiming a number of Important
natural advantages for it. Among others that
it wonld open an unbroken water commnnioa-
tion between New Orleans and Oolumbn*,
Georgia.
The above ia not only wholly and absnrdly
false, bnt exhibits a refreshing amount of ig-
noranco of the geography of Georgia. That
Washington quid nunc should ba informed
that Colombo* ia now, and ba i always been, in
direct “water communication” with the Crr r
oent City by the Chattahoochee and Apalachi
cola river* and tho Gnlf of Mextoo. To con
nect her with tbe Coast L'ne woo'd require a
canal neross the whole width of the State. The
assertion may be safely made that there are not
half dozen poisons in Georgia who prefer the
Coast Water Line to tbe eminently practioal
route whioh woo'd unite the Tennesseoand At
lantic, if indeed there be one ga'lty of such
folly.

Jo'y ICtb, 1873.)
The order is spreading rapidly in the South-
ern State*, and it beooma* its supporters to
speedilypnt in exercise tbe mean* for the accom.
plishmant of tbe many advantages it 1* in
tended to afford Us member*, and which will
surely follow If the fraternity unite upon some
general line of action in regard to the 3torsge
and sale of Georgia cotton, and the pnrohase
of snch articles as will be required by them
for hom* nse. A small contribution from each
would be anffirient to ereot bouses ontside of
the cities on tbe lines of the different railroad*,
for tho storage of tbeir cotton, and a email tax
per bale to pay an agent and insurance, is all
that wonld be neseuary to i.<n tbe machine.
The ootton when stored should be sampled and
used and registered. If derirable, a register
might be kept also of the amount of mtnnfio-
tored goods needed by each patron. Circnlars
conld then be issued to the different ootton fac
tories embracing the ageregate amount of oot
ton hold by each honse, for it b with them we
expect to deal. Also embraolng tha quality
and quantity of their wares needed. Ia this
way a portion of the purchase* on either side
can be msde by exchange and with prodnoe from
first hand*, to their mutual benefit. Arrange
ment* can also bo made to bny article* of ne-
ceasity from thoee producing them. If money
i* needed after the cotton is stored, it oan be
obtained as easily a* if it were stored with
your factor. I wonld like to see a demonstra
tion from onr Stats Grange at its meeting on
the 13th of August in this matter. Inangnrate
some measure for its accomplishment, and in-
vito tha oo.operation of tbe other cotton States,
in seeming to tbe honest tiller of the soil a
recompense for his labor. A Pateon.

Suspension of the Brooklyn Tract Com-

New Yobs, Jnly 19.—The suspension of ihe

to Well street, and caused temporary depres-

Tn* Alleged 8icondb in tee I ’ix Don,.
The alleged second* in the late duel, Messrs.
Trigg, Boyall and Tabb, appeared before tho
Hastings Gonrt yesterday morning and an-
nonncod themselves ready for trial. Tbe attor
ney for tbe Commonwealth Raid that the prin
cipal, Mr. McCarty, had not been and oonld not
be indicted at prtuot; that be wa* not willing
to try the accessories before the prinoipal was
arraigned, and further, that he oonld not avail
himself of tho important evidence of Dr. Cnllen,
the reousant wltnar •, who still refused to test
ify; therefore be asked fora oontinnance of tho
rise. The oonnsel for tbe defense then asked
a renewal of the defendants’ bail on the gronnd
that they had been enlarged by a conrt of com
petent jurisdiction, whose aotion his Honor
shonld respect; and secondly, that.a* the cr*e
was oontinned at the instance of the Common -

CoNGBE38ar\n Walden, of Iowa, like Gongresr.
man Roosevelt, of New York, and Congrri9msn
Hoar (G. F.), of Massachusetts, is a friend of

to the supervisors of Marion oonnty for tho
sohools under their charge. The supervisors,
being sffi-'oted with the “fidgety morality,” now
epidemic in those parts, held a meeting on the
subject and voted that tbe school* oonld get
along witbont stolen money. The State Super
intendent of Pnblio Instruction, a person by
tbe name of Abernetby, whom the regular Re
publicans are running for another term, now
steps forward to remark that tbe supervisors
had no sort of a right to obtrndo tbeir scruples
in this way between the needy sohools and a
generous bom factor. To Mr. Abernethy’s opin
ion, the parent* of tho oonnty have a sufficient
canse foT action against them, and can yet get
the greenbacks. It is a very pretty and moral
wrangle as it stands, and the older school chil

Wbat la Wrongful Intent.
An interesting case wa* recently tried before
the United State* Conrt for the Eastern District
of Wisconsin. It was a criminal proceeding
against a man and wife for destroying a letter.
It st ems that their daughter was separated from
her husband, ami that ber parents d d not wish
them to communicate with each other. The
girl, however, wrote to her hn*band, bnt the
defendants took the letter from the postcffice.
and destroyed it. T&e husband heard of it snd
msde complaint. The facts narrated above
were fnliy proved on the trial, bnt the conrt,
Jndge Drummond presiding, charged the jnry
that th> re mn*t have been express intent of
wrongful action to make tbe sot a crime. Tbe
jnry fonnd that there was no snoh intent, end
returned a verdict of not guilty.
According to thia deoision a man may violate
the sanctity of tbe mails by taking from the
pqsiofflce and destroying a letter whioh one
person addresses to another, nnder the plea
keeping those two persons from corresponding,
and yet be guilty of no wrongful intent. What
is to constitute tbe sanolity of a seal if a letter
plsoed in the mail* mav be tbn* destroyed by
an nnanthorized party? Jndge Drummond’
interpretation of the Uw certainly will not do.
If it stands the test, than no man's or wo
man’s correspondence ia safe. The Judge mnst
certainly have allowed his sympathy for the de
fendant to have betrayed him into a most
rernsikabla interpretation of tho law.—Nash
