Tlia Board ot Visitor* of the
University ot Georgia aud
Free Faucatlon.
We are in tho receipt, after long delay,
of an exceedingly able bat caustic article
from a member of the Board, himeelf the
distinguished head of an endowed pay
school, in reply to certain severe slriot-
ures upon tho late report of tho Board
from tho pen of Eev. Dr. Haywood, the
honored President of Emory College.
Quito euro that the Doctor’d editorial
in tho Advocate waa based upon improper
conceptions of the action and recommen
dations of the "Board of Visitors," and
perfectly satisfied with the endorse
ment of the Trustees of the University
and the public generally, of their pub
lished report, we have abstained from all
animadversion upon or even mention of
the Doctor's editorial.
For tbo same reason wo deem it un
necessary and in bad taste to print the
sharp but salient and conclusive answer
of "One of the Board.” In judging of
the motives of the Board, it ehoold be
remembered that four of their number
were heads of tho best paying high
schools in Georgia, one an ex member of
the faculty of the University, one a vete
ran instructor of youth now connected
with the educational bureau of the State,
and another the popular head of a city
high school. In short, a majority of the
members of tbo Board in attendance at
tbe University,had always made their sup*
port directly from tho tuition received
from the pupils of the several institutions
over which they presided, and hence,
their advocacy of free tuition in the Uni
versity was certainly not from the stand
pc int of personal interest. But they
were sent to Athens to examine into the
condition and wants of the University,
and finding that only 40 out of the 150
matriculates were on the pay roll, and
the income for tuition had dwindled
to about $3,000, were of the
opinion that if by a small
subsidy from the Legislature, this
amonnt could be made up, the benefits
of the institution would be free to all,
and a great deaideratam have been at
tained. The General Assembly refused
to do this, however, even though the
Trustees favored the meoenre, and the
scheme fell to the ground.
In regard to the proposed branch high
school*, the Board favored them if uni
fied with the University, un ler the sin
cere belief that they would prove feeders
to the parent foundation.
The writer has more than once ex
pressed the same views is the Txlboxapzi
and Messknokb, coupled with the decided
opinion that the benefit would be shared
alike by the three admirable denomina-
I tionai colleges of the State.
r Thus the sons of Baptist, Methodist or
Catholic parents who may be prepared
by these free high schools to enter upon
a more advanced oourse of study, will
natnralij go to the institutions of their
fathers. In this way many poor, but
gifted and deserving boys who, when
turned loose from the free schools of the
oountry wonlu be forced to halt on the
very threshhold ot an education, may be
prepared, free of charge, for the Junior
class at the State and Mercer Universities,
or Emory and Pio Nono Colleges. If
promising and ambitions, either with or
without the aid of their parents they o*n
easily bridge the two sucoeeding years,
and obtain the goal of their wiahas, a
thorough and liberal collegiate education.
Neither the Board of Visitors or the
editors of this paper, by thought, word
or deed, ever meant to harm Emory
College, whioh is one of Georgia’s bright
est jewels. Hence oar silence at what
we cannot bnt oonsider the unjust and
gratuitous deliveranoe of Dr. Haygood.

Kallresd Extension,
The intense hatred of Mr. Wadley and
the Central Railroad developed thus far
in the debate upon the lease, and compul
sory extension of the Macon and Bruns
wick Railroad to Atlanta, bids fair to
culminate at this writing, in the passage
of the bill by a considerable majority.
A fri-nd just returned from Atlanta
says quite a large number of members
who will vote for the measure
are ia reality opposed to it,
and do ao, confident that the
terms imposed upon the lessees will ren
der the act a virtual nullity. But they
•annot forego the delicious opportunity
of venting their spleen upon the head
of the President of the Central Railroad.
Tois, however, is at beat a sorry revenge.
We are informed also that those opposed
to either lease or eale aro alike indifferent
whether the bill fails or goes through.
Many consider its success taotamounc to
defeat, from the fact that no sane com
pany or capitalist would be willing to
tackle such an elephant.
Think of tho cost of the privilege
of getting into position to fight the Cen
tral which is already in the field, and
able to do tea times the freightage
that offers.
First, $GO,000 per annum must be
guaranteed to the State for three years
with ample security.
Second, Two hundred thousand dollars
moro must be expended forthwith in
rolling stock and # improvements under
penalty of the forfeiture of the leaEe.
Third, nolens volcns, on and before the
expiration of three years that inevitable
extension to Atlanta must be completed,
let it cost what it may, whether one and
a half or two millions of dollars. Fail
ing to do this, the lessees lose all their
work and investments, and the whole
property reverts squarely back to the
State. Now who in the name ef common
sense would accept sach a one-sided prop
osition, with tho Heronlean task in tha
bargain afterwards also of whipping ont
Mr. Wadley ? All the time and money
expended upon tha consideration of the
lease, therefore, in its present shape, is
the merest Buncombe, and very costly
Buncombe at that to our depleted tax*
payors. And so it has proved, and will
provo ot least in Homo of the costly in
vestigations instituted by onr economical
law-givers. All we ask, however, is that
the guilty may not be whitewashed and
allowed to escape.
Since pencilling tho above, the night
letter of onr special Atlanta correspon
dent "Carolynn" announces the passage
of the lease, conpled with the forced ex
tension, by an overwhelming majority.
This was ja3t what wo expected, bat the
br-st informed railroad men think that,
aside from tho pronounce 1 antagonism
with tbo Central railroad, no practical
conclusion has been reached. It may
now bo safely asserted that the State will
continue to operate the load as hereto*
fore.

Correspondents from Salt Like City

of things there, and speak of an out
break of hostilities as a vary possible
event. At the regular tabernacle service

Georgia Normal School Pupils.—
State School Commissioner Orr writes
the following letter to the Atlanta Con-
siilutlon:
Georgia nowha3 at tha Normal College
at Nashville, Tenn., coven pupils on the
Peabody sonoUrsnip. Two of these are
males aud five females. I am author
ized by Dr. Sears, the general agent, to
increase the number to twenty. This
will involve the appointment of thirteen
to the aditional sobolarship. I have de
termined that seven of the new appoin
tees shall be malts and six females, pro
vided tbo merits of the examination shall
jastify that apportionment of the places
between tne sexe?. This will muki the
whole number of males nine aad the
nnmbsr of females eleven. I make this
discrimination in favor of the females,
because fewer avenues to honorable self-
support are open to tbatser.
Each appointee will be entitled to free
tuition, and will receive $200 oer annum
in monthly installments of $25.
Tho applicant, for a scholarship must be
at least seventeen years of age, must
produoe a certificate of irreproaohable
moral character and gentlemanly or lady
like habits, mast give a pledge to remain
at the college two years, if the scholar
ship be continued so long, promise to
submit cheerfully to its requirements in
study, discipline, etc., and to teach in the
public schools at least two years, if there
is opportunity.
Candidates will bo examined in spell,
ing, reading, penmanship, grammar and
analysis, geography, oivil and physical,
elements of geometry, elements of chem
iatry, physiology. United State? history
and elements of geology.
The last two paragraphs are quoted, al
most word for word, from a circular is
sued by Dr. Stearns, tho president.
I have decided to make choice from
among applicants on the merits of a com
petition examination. The examination
will be conducted in writing. Examination
papers will be prepared for distribution.
A copy of these papers will be sent to
some friend of mine reeident in the county
of the applicant, who will represent me
in tho examination.
In addition to tho subjects cf examina
tion mentioned above, I will add a few
questions on Latin and physics, as a sat
isfactory examination on them might be
accepted iu lieu of some o: the prescribed
studies.
As the whole object contemplated in
tho bestowal of the scholarship is to in*
crease the supply of well trained teach
ers, I will require an expression of opin
ion from the last teacher of the applicant
as to whether, judging from the mental
traits, habits of study and general char
acter of said applicant, he believes the
applicant capable of becoming a first-class
teacher.

A Radical View of Georgia Politics—
The Atlanta Dispatch, under tho above
head, has the following in its edition of
Wednesday afternoon:
The Washington National Republican,
of Monday, prints an interview with Hon.
Madison Ball, of this city, on the sab
jeet of Georgia politics. Mr, BoU, of
oourse, gave prominence to tbe investiga
tion of Democratic officials and the iui
peaohment proceedings now goiug oa.
He represented that they ail "grew outef
an anxiety to bring Governor Col
quitt's administration into disrepute,"
nod intimated that they would be as
fruitless as % ‘the investigation of Bepnb
lican officials a few years ago." He
names the following as "organized” Dem
ocrats who aro regarded aa candidates for
Governor: "Colonel Tnoaias Hardeman
Jr., of Bibb county; Hen. James B
Brown, of Cherokee county; Hon. A. O.
Bacon, present Speaker of the Home of
Representative?; General A. K. Lawton,
of Savannah; General L J. Gartrcli, of
Atlanta, and Judge Hiram Warner, now
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of
tho. State. Governor Colqaitt, it is
thought, also desires the nomination,
partly to vindioate his administration
from the severe criticism? that have been
made against it."
He announced that the Independents
will also run a candidate with a strong
probability of success, as there ia a grow
ing feeling among Democrats agaiaat
"caucuses, rings and nominating cou<
ventions."
So much for what Mr. Bell has to say
about the Democrats. He can speak
more knowingly and authoritatively of the
course which hia own party, the Repub
licans, will pursue, and this we consider
the most noteworthy and reliable part of
the interview. He says that "the Repub
licans are not likely to run a candidate,”
and add
"The vote of the Republicans may be
thrown for the Democratic candidate who
treats them ino-t kindly, and who is meat
fair-minded and just toward them and
their views in the fostering of public
sobools, the establishment of manufac
turing enterprises, and the general agri
cultural interests of the State.
"Toe Republicans will, however, run
an electoral ticket, and with the divis
ions among the Democrats for State po
sitions, will be enabled to throw more
votes for the Republican nominee than
if they had a full State ticket m the
field.
"Tne Republicans of the State are not
fully agreed as to who shall be the
Presidential candidate of the party.
General Grant, Secretary Sherman find
Senator Blaine each have warm friends.
Mr. Sherman, however, seems in the
lead, and by the time the National Con
vention meets, may gain a majority of
the delegation.”
The Primitive Baptist brethren of
Enon Church, Meriwether county, are in
a bad way. They have quarrelled al
most to the point of fighting, over the
question whether a member can join the
Masons or Odd Fellows and remain in
church fellowship, and the result is like
ly to be a divided church.
Cheap.—The Columbus Enquirer Son,
casually remarks under the above head,
that the Senate, on Tuesday, "talked i
economy to’death on a public printing
bill. Their pay per hour amouuts to a
heavy earn. They want the printing
done cheapest. Why do they not reduce
their own pay to the lowest possible lim
it, board at a cheap ha3hery and charge
the State only for the actual necessities of
lift? That would be the rigid economy
they prate about. This would be in ac-
oordauce with professions. We are real

Gevemor-making is still going cn as
if it waB a matter of life aud death. The
latest racers entered for the heat are as
follows: The Oglethorpe Echo suggests
Joseph E. Brown; the Rome Tribune
advocate* Daniel S. Printup*; the Quit-
man Free Press champions Mr. Turner,
Chairman of the Judiciary Committee;
the Newnan Leader leads off for
Judge Hiram Warner; and the Athena
Danner battles for Colquitt. Messrs.
Gartrell, Aiiwton, Lester, Stephens, But

Smith, Bleckley, Wofford, Reese, Jim
Brown, Toomb?, and a host of others,
have bad their names tossed before tho
public for some time, to say nothing of
theominoa3 black horse and whickering
gray mule. It is gratifying indeed to
have such a brilliant array of good
names from which to select the next
Governor of this grand old common
wealth ; but one thing is certain, only
one ot them can win the blue ribbon,
the rest will have to choke down their
disappointment, be sponged off and blan
keted for some race thereafter.
The Lv.vrencevllle Herald grows some
what indignant over the failure of tho
law for the inspection of fertilizers to an
swer public expectation, and adds: "Our
observation and experience, and we doubt
not that of half the planters of Georgia,
is that this analysis has not elevated th*
standard, and that there are as many
worthless brands of guano put on the
market as has ever been done before. If
this be true, then we aro not benefited.
Bat this is nor all. Under the form of
contracts drawn and executed, and tho
decision of the courts construing these
oontracts, this imposition is frequently a
curse to the buyer who purchases on its
faith. Ho is compelled to take it on the
inspector's certificate or not at all, and
then this certificate or brand is used ia
the courts as an estoppel to close his
mouth when he appeals to that court to
proteot him from an iufamou3 swindle.
Why should guano be peculiarly pro-
teoted by the law above any other com*
modity ? What peculiar claims have the
manufacturers of fertilizers over other le
gitimate business that they should re
ceive the protection of courts alone over
other interests ? Oar deliberate judg
ment is that it would be better for the
State to repeal all inspection laws, aud
let fertilizers stand like other manufac
tured articles, upon its merits. The man
who sells flour, meat, meal, wagons, ma
chinery, tools, stock—in fact everything,
takes the risk of its being what it is rep
resented. Iu every Bale the seller war
rants that tho tbiDg sold is reasonably
suited for the use intended, and if he mis
represents its use or value the penalty
falls on him. He can't collect hia debr.
Why not let goano stand on the same
footing? Let the manufacturer under
stand Chat the law gives him so extra
protection, and if he makes a worthless
article and manages to palm it off on the
public that he will be caught and exposed
and cannot collect his price. You there
by transfer the responsibility to where it
legitimately belong-?. If he cannot sus
tain the character and usefulness of his
fertilizer before the courts, let him re
tire from the business. In our judgment
the repeal of all inspection laws and the
opening of the door to all manufactures
is our safest protection.
Wattersou on the Big Scandal.
Block Island letter to Courier Journal.]
For my part I don’t believe it. I be
lieve her to be a vain, and to have always
been a daring, imprudent wornaa, not a
wanton, and I must say that the provoca
tion she has bad from her husband, and
the oourse which Mr. Conkling has pur
sued, together with the wretched plight
in whioh I know her now to be, fill me
with a sympathy I never expected to feel
for her. She is the daughter of one of
the greatest men this country ever pro
duced, a woman iu distress, abused and
brow-beaten by her husband, betrayed
and deserted by her lover, and that is
enough for me.
Mr. Conkling, with characteristie
avoidance of contamination to his gentle-
manhood, has fled the field. He de
clines to appear iu his own person. He
first invents a most absurd (statement to
the press. He next prepares, not for
himself, but for Mrs. Sprague, to sign
an inconsistent, illogical statement to the
public. In the first person sing -lar he
has never a word to utter. He does not
say, "I let my character go—do what
you will with it—but the woman i3 inno
cent.” He does not have even the
self-possession or the courage to make a
diversion upon Sprague and to say
to him, "Sir, you are a scoundrel who
have attacked yonr own wife through
me, and I will hold you responsible." He
does nothing of the nort. His greatness
restrains him. He flies back to Utica,
to the wife he has deserted, to the daugh
ter he tried to humiliate, and, ooweriog
behind these good women, he asks the
ooontry to believe him gailtless, while it,
in company with Sprague, punishes tho
daughter of the great Chief Juatioe.
I wish I may be harpooned—and I am
snre I don't want to be harpooned—if
ever I heard of anything like it in all my
perusal of wicked history from Claudius
down to Henry Ward Beecher. I oan
fiod nothing at all akin to it anywhere,
not even in "plantation manners."
Why, do yoa know that I am credibly
informed that Mr. Conkling was assured
by the Now York papers that if he would
authorize a denial of the whole thing, on
his honor as a man aud a Benator, they
woald not only suppress the details, but
unite in au indorsement and, if needed,
defense, and that Mr. Conkling re*
fused. God of tne nniverac! where are
the Bible?, where are the stacks of Bibles,
so high that the meanest wretch would
not mount them, as upon an altar, and
light the pile with his own hands, and
amid the flames beneath, swear to the
honor of the woman who bod trusted
him,"and who stood compromised by his
act, until bis senses left him?

N.Y. Special of 19th to Phil.Times.]
Ex-Governor Hendricks ia conversa
tion to-day said that he wrote the
letter refusing to take second place on
the ticket of 1880 with deliberation,
having been forced to do so by the mis
representations to which ho was subject
ed. He said: "It was openly announced
in the Pennsylvania newspapers that I
had written to Democratic friends in
that State and elsewhere, saying that I
was in favor of the old ticket. They
even pretended to quote my words and
represented me as saying that the re-
cominatioa of the St. Loois candi
date was a thing to be commend
ed. I never made such an avow
al and never said anything which
could be tortured into it. I desire the
success of the Democracy as heartily as
any one and am as ready to sink personal
preferences as any one, but I can see no
reason why I should be forced to take the
nomination foe an office which I never
sought and do not desire. I accepted in
1876 because the circumstances attending
it rendered such a course imperative.
The nomination was tendered unanimous
ly and in euoh a way that I could not
have retired without doing serious injury
to the ticket and appearing ungracious
not only to the convention, but to the
friends who had worked so hard for me.
Now tho case is different. They know acd
the public know that I do not want the
place, aud never wished it." Mr. Hen
dricks reiterated that he could not be in
duced to aocept the nomination for second
place.

Colonel Ingereoll says ho keeps a pock
et book in an open drawer, and his chil
dren go and help themselves to money
whenever they want it. "They cat when
they want to; they may sleep ail day if
they choose, and sit up all night if they
desire. 1 don't try to ooerco them. I
never punish; never ecold. They buy
their own clothes, and are masters of
themselves."
A gentleman living on Marshall street,
who has a boy that ia as full of kitteny
as hia father, read the article and pon
dered deeply. He know that Colonel Ia-
gersoll was a suooess at raising children
in the way they should go, and he thought
he would try it. The boy had caused
him considerable annoyance, and he made
up his mind he had not treated cho boy
right, so he called the boy in from tho
street, where ho was putting soft soap
on a lamp post in order to see the lamp
lighter climb it, and said to him:
•*My son, I have decided to adopt a
different coarse with you. Heretofore I
have baen careful about giving you
money, and have wanted to know where
every cent went to, and my supervision
baa no doubt been annoying to you. Now,
I am going to leave my pocket-book in
the bureau drawer, with plenty of money
in it, and you are at liberty to use ail
you want without asking me. I want
you to buy anything you desire, buy
your own clothes, and to feel as though
the money was yours, and that yea had
not got to aoconnt for it. Just make
yourself at home now, an I try and have
a good time.”
The boy looked at the old gentleman,
put his hand on his head, as though ho
had "got 'em sure," and went out to see
the lamp-lighter climb that soft soap.
Tne next day the stern parent went oat
into the country, shooting; and returned
on the midnight train three d ays later. He
opened the door with a latch-key, and a
strange yellow dog giabbed him by the
elbow of his pants, and tcok him, he said,
"like tho ftgur.”
The dog barked and chewed nntil the
son oame down in his night shirt and
oalled him off*. Hs told his father be
had bought that dog of a fireman for $11,
acd it waa probably the beat dog bar
gain that had been made this season.
He said the fireman told him he coaid
find a man that wanted that kind of a
dog.
The parent took off his pants, wliat
the dog bad not removed, and in the ball
he stnmbled over a birch-bark oanoe the
boy bought of an Indian for $9, and an
army musket with an iron ramrod fell
down trom the oornor. The boy had
paid $6 for that. He had also bonght
himself an overcoat with a seal-skin col
lar and ouff-, and a complete outfit of
calico shuts and silk stocking?.
In his room the parents found the mar
ble top of a soda fountain, a wheelbar
row and shelf filled with all kinds of
canned meat, preserves and crackers,
and a barrel of apples* A wall tent and
Hix pairs of blankets were rolled up ready
for camping out, and a buckshin sbirt and
a pair of corduroy pants lay on the bed
ready for pulling on. Six fishing-poles
and a basketful of fLh lines were ready
for basines3, and an oyster can fall of
grub-worms for bait were squirming on
the wasbstacd. Tne old gentleman look
ed the lay-out over, looked at hia pocket-
book iu tne bureau drawer, as empty as a
contribution box, and said:
"Young man, the times have been too
flush. We will now return to a specie
basis. When you want money come to
mo and I will give you a nickel, and you
will tell me what you intend to buy with
it, or I'll warm you. You bear me."
And now that man stands around from
the effects of the encounter with the yel
low dog, and asks overy man where a let
ter will reach Bob Ingersoil. He sayB he
will kill kill Ingersoll, if is the last noble
act he ever accomplishes.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
TJAIN in the right side, under the
1 edge of ihe ribs, increases on pres
sure ; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The stom
ach is affected with loss of appetite
and sickness; the bowels in general
are costive, sometimes alternative with
lax; the head is troubled with pain,
accompanied with a dull, heavy sen
sation in the back part. There is gen
erally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight,
dry cough is sometimes an attendant.
The patient complains of weariness
and debility; he is easily startled, his
feet are cold or burning, and he com
plains of a prickly sensation of the
skin; his spirits arc low; and although
he is satisfied that exercise would be
beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try it.
In fact, he distrusts every remedy.
Several of the above symptoms attend
the disease, but cases have occurred
where few of them existed, yet exam
ination of tbe body, after death, has
shown the liver to have been exten
sively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER,
Dr. C. McLane’s Liver Pills, in
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, are productive of
the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
•vdvise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them a fair trial.
For all bilious derangements, and
as a simple purgative, they are un-
equalcd.
