whoso fatoer does not pa* the poll tax
due bf him for tb« y. »r 1878. on or be

It waa found, upon investigation, that
a large number of persons who had not
paid their poll tax for Is at year bad regie
tered their children for th- Bchcols, and
that children of persona who had promptly
paid the tax, by reason of later applica
tion, canid not bo admitted.

Captain Adams, oar courteous Chief of
Police, we learn that Cbarlee Norton,
whose exploits a* a muchly married man
were brought to light in this eity a abort
time since, and who n-joioed in as many
aliases aa ho had wires, has been brought
before the courts and haa reaped tha de
aorta uf hia misdeeds. He plead guilty
to the charge of bigamy, and not guilty
to one of the charges of obtaining goods
nnder false pretences. Before, however,
the evidence for tbe prosccntiou had
olosed, tbe plea of not guilty was with
drawn, and tbe plea of guilty entered,
lathe other ease the proaeoutor had died
since the filing of the suit. Norton was
seutenoed to three years in the pomten
tiary, and fined two hundred dollars and
ooals, which will virtually make the sen
tence four yean.

The amount realised by Mr. Theo. W.
Ellis, by bia sod* foontam, exceeded tbe
moat am,nine expectation*. Hi* eatab-
liehment waa crowdad throughout the
day with a rush of customers. Lidiea
came down to lay on th# common altar
their small tribute to the departed hero;
children, whose sympathies had been
touobed, added their mites to toe aggre
gate amount until the handsome sum of
one hundred dollars was realized. No
deduction was made for expenses. Mr.
Elbe is to bo highly commanded for his
liberality.
Yesterday a letter oontaining two dol
lars was reoeived from a lady who is
spending the summer in Wytheville, Vir
ginis, expressing sympathy and interest
in tbe movement.
A gentleman of the city made a con
tribution of three dollars, bnt was too
modest to allow his name to be plaocd

A handsome donation, which has not
yet been disposed of, is a bale of sheeting,
manufactured and given by tbe Bibb
Manufacturing Company. It will be
properly disposed of by the oommittee.
The wine donated by Mr. Martin, of
Cnthbert, ha* been shipped, and will
nrobably reach Macon to day.
Wo hope the work will go on. The ne
cessity fer it ia great, os will be shown
by a letter received yesterday by Mr.
Ben. C. Smith from New Orleans, which
reads aa follows:
N*w Oblvans, September 9;b, 1879
lien. 0 Smith. Eeq—M<J Dear Sir : On
my return from tbe couuuy to toe city,
I found your telegram as follows ; “We
propose raiding funds for Gen. Hood’s
otuldren. Is it necessary ?”
Tnere can be no doubt that pecuniary
assistance for those unfortunate orphans
will be much needed, and most thank
fully received.
I enclose a card published to tbe com
mittee appointed by the A,Eoei.ition of
the armies of Northern Virginia and
Tennessee, calling for relief for tb-se or
phans. The facts explaining their Bad
and helpless condition are succinctly and
truthfully set forth.
Trusting that your generous efforts in
this direction will be attended with great
success,
I remain respectfully, youra truly,
Duncik F. Kennxb.
Te card is aa follows:
Desolation and possible destitution
have fallen upon the onoe happy house
hold of Gen. John B. Hood.
Mte. Annie Mane Hood, the devoted
wife and mother, died on tbe evening of
August 21, 1879. Gen. Hood, the be
reaved husband and father, followed ou
the morning of August 30th, leaving be
hind them, iu full orphanage, eleven
children of tender years. Lydia, the eld
est of these, died on tbe evening ot tbe
same day.
There now survive ten children, the
eldest of whom are twins, of the age of
nine years and two months. The young
est is one menth old. The condition of
bis estate leaves bnt little hope that
there will remain, after settlement of its
indebtedness, anything for his ohildren
other than such proceeds as may possibly
be derived from the publication of ins
history of the war and records.
The generous heart of the country has
already been moved to a grateful recog
nition of the virtues, the chivalry aud
aelf-saorificing devotion of tha departed
hero, and to an active and giving sympa
thy for tbe living.
The nedersigned committees, appoin
ted by tbe Association cl the Armies of
Northern Virginia and Tennessee, to re
ceive these funds (wnie.* are to bo inves
ted io U. S. Dond-), earnestly eolioit
vorjco-operation ana assistance in rais
ing a sum which shall be sufficient for
tbe support, maintenance and education
of tbeae orphan«.

The con: next Monday and
Turaday er. by the teachers
and pupils ot the Southern Female
College, of LcGrange, will be the finest
that have been given since visit of the
Mendelssohn Clnb.
The plaoes where Conoerta have been
given have been surprised and delighted
with their excellence, acd the press favor
them with very flattering notices.
One-half of the proceeds of the Con
certs are to go to the Lidies’ Aid Society
of Meroer Uoivertity. In speaking of
the Concert given in Columbus a day or
two since, tbe Enquirer Sun says:
For our pleasure we never desire to
hear more delicious harmonies than those
we heard last evening in the opera bouse.
The woodland scene waa presented, with
glimpses of flowers and beauty, a fittlog
apartment wh.-noe to eome lovely melo

Then, wa heard sweet made from la

enee or tbe gallery gods. We hsve en
joyed no entertainment eo well since the
appearance of tne Boston Quintette Cmb,
and in all undertaken this evening waa a.
delightful as that exquisite entertain
ment.
The orchestra, composed of three vio
lins, violoncello, bass, piano, dram, trian
gle and tambourine, gave ns faultier
music, the moat delioate ear failiog to de
tect a diaoord. Bendered handsomely
were Boesici'* overture to the opera of
Semiramis, “Cuckoo Gallop” and "Beau-
tifnl Bloe Danube,” Ladles handled the
instruments, Master Charlie Cox being
the only male performer. • * - * *
Tbe piano solo, “F«ost Fantasia,” by
Mias Alios Cox, convinced all who arc
acquainted with that instrument that she

most brilliant and promising pianist in
the Sontb.
Ab, that violin solo. “Fantasie,” by
Miss Sallie Cox, sweet as the thought of
a happy dream, will ever lioger with the
memories of the bright and lovely—
tones so soft, so tender, tbe listener held
