A unit has been filed in the Glork’a offioe of the Boperior Coart of this county returnable to the Angnat term for ? 2.'.,000, against the Central railroad. It was brought by the family of Mr. J. G. Sears, i.r 1 the main charge in the writ, ir that owing to tbo negligence of the other em plojeea of the road, Mr. Hears was killed. It will be remembered that he was crushed to death while trying to nnoonple a train here about one month ago. The family is represented by Messrs. Doyai and Nonally. Tnx residence of Dr. W. D. Hoyt, of Borne, waa burned Saturday morning. Lost $2,500. Mita Mima Stixtobd, of Monroe eonnty, waa thrown from a boggy last week, and her ooliar bone waa broken. Foaann la taking slaps toward having the Georgia Military Institute located there, pro vided the Legislature shun Id aee fit to re-eatab llahlL Tin Atlanta correspondent of the Griffin News, writing on Saturday, says: At last onr anplonl oily fathom have come down a peg or two in regard to the sale of watermelons, and now the stores have them in abnndanoa. Twee only last night the ordinanoe was passed, nml lo ! tbta morning we nee then sands of this juicy fruit everywhere for sale. Moore, of the Herald, being aware of the action of the Oily Gonneil in thia matter, after doing np hia looal, spent the remainder of the night In front of Pease's establishment, and, soon as the doors wero ajar next morning he oalled for tho biggest melon on hand. With thia nnder hia right arm and a bottle of oholera mixture nnder hia left, ha aat on the curbstone and amole one of hia charmingeat smiles for mlnnte or two, then hied away to hia room where, beneath the soft seoluslon of his moa qnlto bar, be drove sleep from hia panting eye lids and defied cholera, as the red, Inscions allocs disappeared ono by one. He then gave theeity fathers a unanimous vote of thanks, went to sleep, and the Recorder's Oonrt waa nnreported next morning. A ooBaxaroxitEXT of the Atlanta Constitution gives the following war inoldent: General Sherman, with hia splendidly equipped army of ono hundred thonaand men, wanted to give General Johnston, with hia army of fifty thonaand veterans, battle In the month Citnip stronger.* Johnston'was at gallon, with hta advance at Ringgold; his lino of supplies, aa well as of retreat, the Western and Atlantic Railroad. Sherman conceived the idea 11 inking Johnston by sending McPherson, with his twenty-four thonaand men, aroned throngb Snake Greek Gap to Rssaoa, or any other point north of Oootananlla river, with orders to seize the railroad, bold it, and bnrn the bridge Krarca at all hazard*. Meanwhile he wan'd keep the Confederate army at Rooky Faood Ridge baay. General Thomas doubted the ano- oeaa of the plan, booance, he said General Johnston was too good a soldier to leave Snake Greek Gap unfortified. Bat Sherman wasbonnd to try It, and so bo started McPhoroon, with the army ef Tennessee, on a mission, which, if earned ont, wonld reanltin aa great an aohleve ment as ever waa gained by armed men. John, aton wonld be anrionnded—hemmed in by the OoalananlU and Gonaasnga rivers on the sontb and east, by John's Mountain on the went, he wonld have toanrrenderor fight againat fearfnl odds, donlile bis fence attacking in front and rear. On the Slh and Olh of May, Sherman bam mered away at Rooky Faoed Ridge and Bax xard's Kooat at a fearful rate; and daring the night of the Oth, a courier from McPherson nr rived at Sherman's headquarters with the in formation that UcPhcraon and his army had patted through Snake Creek Cap, and terra within a nule of the railroad! This waa great news for Sherman. He immediately called for horse* and an oaoort, and rode to Gen. Thomas' quarters, over a milo away. Bonding In upon Uan. Thomas, he shoaled: “I told yon so Tom l” (In familiar interoonrae he always called Geaeral Thomas Tom.) “McPherson passed throngb the gap, and by this time has the railroad, and has burned the bridge. I’ve got Joe Johnston dead .' I've got him dead .' Of ooarea Thomas waa overjoyed, they oon- • gratnlaled themselves on ending the campaign ai it* commencement. To go down to Atlanta, and from there to Savannah wonld be holi day work. At daylight X general ad- vauoe wonld be made. McPherson shall hear onr gnna before night. Victory! Before daylight another oonrier eame, and hia message waa that McPherson had met a oon- niderable force, and considered it pradent to fall back to the west end and fortify. Then Sherman stormed. He said “the grand oppor tunity ia over—oh.' if I bad only sent Osier- bans or Charley Wood, or somebody who wonld have done as I ordered, Joe Johnston wonld have been mine before forty-eight boars. Sherman at once pat Lis army in motion for Kesaoa, via Snake Creek Gap, hoping to get through before Johnston oould get away, leav. mg Howard's corps tb watch Bnzsard Roost. Bat that wiley chieftain had deteoied the ob- jaot of the morement, and he polled np stakes at Dalton, and, having the short cat, got to Re ason before Sherman debouched from Snake Greek Gap, while Howard’s corps occnpied Dal ton. Tuan followed the three days' bloody fight around lttwaea. until the night of May wnen Johnston qnletly slipped away to King ston with hia army, the rearguard bnralngtbe railroad bridge across the Ooetananla liver. Sherman did not get into Atlanta until the 0:b of September. Ihavlati from Jack Plaine. OxroBD, Jnly 19. The bit in the plane has been dull, and oon- saqnently ont of nse for some time, bat after a little whetting a few moro shavings are thrown off. They may be very thin and somewhat jag ged, but then Lie material may be bad and the bit dull. I waa constrained to make a pilgrimage to thia point by the earned invitation of an old friond, and an innate desire to aee what was going on in the world. Taking the 11 o'clock train yesterday, I found myself here at 9 j. it We had pleasant company aboard, and when combined with the elegant aeoommodatious of the Maoon and Western railroad, made onr jour ney as pleasant aa it waa possible to be in a hot summer's day. Some were se< king pleasure re sort*, others a covert from the heat, and a num ber of Invalids were in search of some healthy fountain where reat and health might be found. Among the latter waa the estimable widow of the late James Snider, of Maoon. She tarries for tho present at Slone Mountain. At Atlanta I oonld aee nothing bnt people and railroad train*—hear nothing bnt rambling of oetl and ringing of engine bells. The vil lage keep* np that everlasting clatter and dtn, ao that a stranger would think they were doing wonders, and may be the, *r 8 . One thing waa apparent, however, that rapid growth baa oeaaed, which waa the astonlahment of every visitor of other day*. Of oonree th.„ tre of im . prove.nent, but it aaeume* a Headier step, all the better for it* slowness. Governor Smith did not invite me to stay over, nor any one else, for that matter, and ao I took shipping for thia port in a crowded ear. I found on this road what I failed to obtain on the mads oontroled by the Central. That is, the anihoritjes ha-ve respect to in»titution« 0 ( learning, and afford the same facilities to attend their exerciser, aa they do for people to attend a horse raoe or a politioal harrangne, giving them return ticket*. There are score* of per sona who would have attended the exercise* of Msrosr and the Wesleyan Female College in Maoon, if thia favor bed been granted them. Why oonld not the authorise* of tbeae institu tions memorialise the directors upon thia point ? It wonld be nothing more than asking what is granted to every political gathering and to every one who goes forth to patronize the vari ous watering pleese. I ■» satisfied that a'l that ia neors«ary la to call the attention of the the “powers that be ” to thia fact. The crops sloDg the way were in all kinds of condition*. g°°d. bed and indifferent. More cotton then oora by half. ‘ Thia is adelightfnl retreat—sorely none more ■nlted for the location of aa institution of learn ing. Trne there ia not that local patronage which it would have if it was located in some city, bnt. on the other hand, it ia free from a thonaand annoyances that are incident to city life. It is healthier both morally and physically. The Board of Trustees meet lo dav and the commencement sermon to-morrow by Dr. Hick*, late of your city. Quite a number of visitors are arriving, and a large crowd 1* anticipated. If the “term ia not too heated” yoa may have a few more shaving* thrown at yon from Jack Pmritz. Emory College Exeretees. Correspondence Telegraph and Messenger.) Oxtoed. Jnly 21, 1873. The crowd in attendance upon the annual Commencement of Emory College has greatly augmented ainco Saturday. Every incoming train add* to the number of visitor*. There waa a very large attendance upon the delivery of the Commencement sermon by Rev. Dr. Hick*, on yesterday. I was struck with the faet of ao many gray beads gracing tho andience. I don’t remember ever seeing ao many for size of the congregation aa were gathered getber on yeeterday at the village church. The sormon waa one of the finest effort* of the popular orator. It was not a diaplay only of hia genlm, bnt throughout the entire sermon thero waa a spirit of genuine Christian lovo and fervor, evincing the fact that he had drank deep of that experience which he labored eloquently to impress the necessity of upon hearts of others. He oon tended that the history of Christianity ia tho perpetoai exhibition of Jesns, flexible and adeqnate, and operating tn nnity which bxfilea all attempts at explanation on any human hypothesis. HI* them* waa the pepetnity Christianity. Hia text waa the third chapter ColloasUne,from the I5th to 17th verses. For hour and forty minutes he held the vast crowd at bis will. The sermon abounded in elcqneDt llighto, aa well aa profound logic. I do no; di airo to pnt it into the newspapers, nor could if I ao deeired, but I have anooeeded in gather ing a few sketches whioh will give some idea of its character, and not be nnaooeptable to your readers. Hi* first proposition was. The cohe sive power of Christianity and of the Christian character. That power la set forth in thane words, “Let the peaoe of God rule in yonr hearts, •- whioh also ye are oalled in one body. Let mind of Christ dwell in yon riohly in all wia- Whatever Is of God ia supreme, and this declared to be “the peace of God.” 1. It la the revelation of divine power, as the controlling element in onr hearts. 2. It la the same in all hearts, and ia there- fore the nnifio or cohesive power compacting believers in one body. Two things are accomplished by it: First, tt changes onr relation to God; seoond, it changes oar relations with one another or rather onr comprehension of them. It may seem that Christians ara far apart, working to tear each other down, under th- genins of a destructive philosophy of denomt nationalism, when they should be edifying one another. Yet these antagonistic ontward man ifestations are not always truly interpreted. Differences of temporal effect rend not root hold of nnity. Tho cohesive power ia deep beneath all offsets, and has its guiding genius on tbo very impulse of motion and heart-throb Oflife. ... a . The unsightly thistle owes its lifo and plan to tba law whioh uplifts the giant oak and which fills the lnacions peach with nature's rlcheat marrow, and paints its ruddy chock, with the very essence of the beantifnl, yet seldom think or atop to think that they related. 8o ia it with ohristianity, so with Christ’s deemed chnroh. She is one body with many separate members; one deep fountain with nu merous gnahing torrent* of refreshing water; one grand natnre, with diversified powers, beau ties and motives. How multiform the parts and agencies of this kingdom of truth. Yet deep beneath all, di recting all, grasplDg all, is the mighty hand of pnrpoao by which ail theae different parts SHIRTS! SHIRTS!

Two conceptions comprehensive cf the Christian system project nponus, allied insepa rably, yet wotking by different proeeases, one answering for intellectual, the other for moral progress in the world: First, the teacher of truth; second, the creator of experience in the heart. Let ns concede that these conceptions are not simply divisions of words. They represent and declare two seta of forces, and both in the highest sense aggressive. The presaber continned of Christianity: “The intelleot of all nations pays tribute at her feet. No matter whether employed in her defense or leading the forlorn hope of the powers of dark ness sgalnst her mighty onlworks, with her in the march over the infinite world, or against her in fiery dispute and refusal of her claims— in every rank of scholarship of every nation, from the village dominie to the learned Acade mician, in all forms, styles and developments, and nnder every oonoeivable shibboleth, it is tree, while I speak, that the intelleot of tho nniverse is this day marohing nnder otders from this high cotnmandery. 2. Bet as tbe Creator and snbstance of ex perienoe in the heart, the subject widens and brightens before ns. No powers are oompara- blo to those of experience. They ara poaitive and self-contained. No donbts attend them and they move with precision. They are direet too, and no barrier can Impede their progress. And they ara praotioil—the common tools of daily life, alike important and adapted to alL “Christianity,'' said the speaker, “ia more than a system of doctrine or formulated truth It ia truth on fire. It is troth life-assimila ting, personal, immortal.” After illustrating the difference between in tellectual knowledge and huart experience, tbe speaker said: “Here is the intellectual form of dogma, and here is the inward demonstration of experience. “If any one, therefore, wonld know why Ohristianity lives and will live—conquers and will conquer—let him know that experience, which ia beyond the robberies of ages and here sies, which cannot be obliterated when forms are destroyed, whioh cannot be compromised— experience is the secret—the secret of God, the seeret of piety, the secret of the aggressive march of Christianity, nntil the whole earth shall be filled with the glory of God " In one of Dr. Ohalmera’ unpublished lectures to a class in divinity he uttered this grand tes timony to tbe superiority of experlenoe over dogmatic learning: “Give me a band of Wesleyans, who never saw the halls of a college and never sat at the feet of a modern Gamaliel, whose only library has been the inspired oracles, and whose only tntor has heeu the Divine Para-'.ete—let them loose on some wild nnbrck in rural territory, with the Bible in their hands, and the love cf Christ in tneir hearts, and III guarantee they will do more, ten to one, than onr oollege made ministers, who most shape every sentence and perform every ceremony according to the rule and sqnare of a rigid, frigid orthodoxy.” In the prize declamation of the Sophomores to-day, the first prize waa awarded to W. A. Candler, of Till* Riot, Ga., and the seoond to A. Wright, of Covington, Ga. Jacx Plans. CYPRESS SHINGLES! TtniT received, a consignment of CYPRESS cJ SHINGLES, rived and drawn. A SUPERIOR ARTICLE!
