county will again vote on the question of
the sale of liquor on Nov. 26. Ordinary

mitted suicide in the yards of the company,
in this city. Grogan's body was found at
an early hour this morning dangling by the

through a nng in the ceiling of the coach
and then fastened the end to a rack. With
the other end of the rope he made a slip

Chief Joyner is doing all that he can to en

The Marietta and North Georgia Rail
road Committee met to-night. Only one
witness was examined, D. B. Glover, Super
intendent of the road. There was nothing
significant in his testimony. He was put
up by the road, and examined merely as to
the condition of the road in 1880, when
Messrs. Pulsifer. Facer and others took it,
which he described as wretched. He said
it was worth hardly S-Vl.OdU The road has
since been extended to the North Carolina
line and put in excellent condition,
at a eott of over *500,0U0. Mr.
Glover was in Atlanta during the session of
1885, wh‘-u the resolution passed, but knew
of no improper means used to influence its
passage.
A HARDENED CRIMINAL.
Robert BrowD. a noted convict in the
Georgia penitentiary, who escaped some
time ago, was recaptured in Franklin
county last week and returned to the camp.
When arre*t"i 1 he had a shotgun and thne
pistols, looking for the Sh**nff of the county
to kill him. Some mouths ago application
for his pardon came to the Governor from
Alabama, urging as a reason that he was
wanted as a witness in the United States
Court for the Northern district of Alaliama
to cdhvict some counterfeiters. A petition
was received to-dav from Haralson county,
where Brown lived when convicted, pro
te&ting against his jmrdon. as lie is a danger
ous mar. and hardened criminal.
At -i o'clock this afternoon the Governor
and hit staff, Mrs. Gordon, Miss Fannie
Gordon and the Atlanta Rifles returned
from Philadelphia. The Governor and his
pa.lv wi re ess-orted to the executive man

CHARCOT AVENGES MESMER.
Investigations of Hypnotism By the
Academy of Medicine.
Correspondence of the .Vet c Yor'.i Tribune.
Paris, Sept. 2. —Mismer has been well
avenged by Charcot, tae great professor
wuo ails the chair in the clinical ward of
the Saltpetriere for the nervous diseases of
women. Not only, indeed, has this illustri
ous physician shown that the charlatan
whom the elder Donas introduced with
such telling effect into his novels **Lo Com
tense de Chorny" and "Le Docfeeur Bal
satno." was no mere charlatan, !>ut a nuni
ber of Charcot's disciples have proved the
truth of what Duma? seemed to draw from
lus rich imagination. The impression
is still fresh of tne suicide of an
unfortunate young girl under the
' stress of mental suggestion. The sug
gestor belongs to the me-lical profeasi* n
and ri worthy of lying in the same buryrag
pround with the nefarious I Sector Je la
1 Pomni"rrais. He had acquired undue in
| fluent* over the poor girl by hypnotizing or
’ mesmerising her, and wanting to get rid of
i tier anel to marry somebody else he ordered
iier, at a distance of many miles, to set
| about committing suicide with a pistol. Dr.
: Charcot, who i*. a cautious man, has publicly
! admitted hypnotic suggestion. He thinks
extraordinary curative effects, so far a the
consciousness of pain goes, are to be derived
from hypnotism, which L mesmerism with a
new Greek name. But he always exhorts
laics not w. dabble in it, and medical men to
keep t:\y hypnotic lore to themselves.
This is - • g i-Himg after the way in which the
profession'''of whu h Charcot is really a
bright light treated Mesmerism. Mesmer
was an empiric. But he nevertheless got at
the truth.
The illustrious Bichat did not believe that
there was any general system in medicine,
which he said was not a science to any
methodic mind, but a collection of vague
and inexact ideas, of observations often
puerile and of jarring formulas. HonKeop
athv was taLooei because it was not ortho
dox by that Sanhedrim known as the Fac
ulty of Medicine. Animal magnetism was
long ignored on the ground that charlatans
had taken it up and that no doctor who had
self-respect could follow them. Mesmerism
was treated with no less contempt until a
new name was given it and Charcot de
clared that there was not only something
but a good deal in it deserving the attentiou
of scientists.
Dr. Luys last Tuesday made a communi
cation to the Academy of Medicine on this
subject which electrified the members pres
ent. It was on the action, both at a dis
tance and by direct contact, of certain
medicated or fermented sub-true s on hyp
notic subjects The latter were all women
who could not possibly have got their cue
beforehand, and were being observed, while
Dr. Luys operated, by a jury of scientists
above all suspicion of having lent them
selves to auv trickery. A tube in one in
stance was filled with sulphate of strychnine
by l>r. Luys, and the subject, who was not
present, was told to put it to the left side
of the nape of her neck. Soon after
there was a telephone message from the
foreman of tlie jury to say that the patient
suffered in the left side from muscular con-
convulsive starts ami a rigid
body. When the drug was placed on the
right side of the nape lin imagination) the
same phenomenon took place. An experi
ment, or rather experiments, were made on
subjects who were brought in to the opera
tor. They had no idea what Dr. Lu vs was
going to use. Alcohol, when put to the
nape in a tube no larger than a homceo
pathist's via), and hermetically sealed, pro
duced exactly the same effect as if imbibed
at a liar. Absinthe, haischish, opium,
morphine, beer, champagne. tea and coffee
were ill succession tried with their charac
teristic effects. But “the cup which cheers
but not inebriates’’ was found too exciting
for French neurojjaths. Valerian caused
tne deepest sadness. The thoughts of the
patient were centered in a grave. She was
compelled irresistibly to stoop down and
scratch the ground, and thought herself in
a cemetery exhuming a deceased relative
whom she loved. Under the illusion she
fancied herself picking up bones belonging
to his skeleton, which she handled with ten
der reverence, and when there was an imag
inary mound of them formed she placed,
with deep-drawn sight and hairs and gtmu
fl *ctions, a cross above them. Under the
influences of haschish everything looked
rosy ami gayety prevailed.' The subject
was a young girl, very fond of the drama.
She fanciest herself on the stage and playing
a part which suited her to perfection. It
was in a bouffe opera and she sang her score
admirably. The sentiments were expressed
with delicate feeling. Dr. Luys can, ac
cording to substances he uses, run through
tne whole gamut of human passions ami
emotions.
What is most strange is that no trace of
the fictitious world in which the hypnotized
subject lias been wandering remains when
real consciousness is restored. It is very
rare for even the idea of having been in
dreamland to survive the awakening from
the hypnotic trance. Dr. Luys says the
hypnotic suggestion sometimes has periods
of incubation more or less long. The sub
ject is at first gently drawn to do a certain
thing or things, and then the drawing be
comes an irresistible" impulse. They are
first as if tern to 1 and th u as if possessed.
They cau no more Help themselves than a
man who had got to the verge of Niagara
Falls in a boat could help going over.
Dr. Roger moved that the ui a lemy name
a commission to inquire into hypnotic sug
gestion, near and at a distance. Dr. Bron
ardel supiiorted him. He said, “All that
Dr. Luys has alleged and shown cannot fail
to make a noise throughout the world No
body stive M. M.Burnt aud Houren have gone
so far as Dr. Luys. He not oulv forces on
the attention of the academy the question
of hypnotism, but of {teraous being nffe and -d
by poisonous substances which do not |x.ue
tfato, or it may las even touch their bodies.
This is flora a legal point of view a greet,
danger. A great social responsiiulty is in
volved in the matter. It is the duty of the
academy to have th experiments of Dr.
Luys repeated, with others that boar ui>ou
them.”

A GREAT METEOR.
As Big aa an Elephant—lt Startles tho
Nova Scotians.
Prom the Setc York Shu.
j Halifax, Sept. 16.—A special dispatch
j from Barrington says: “A wonderful tihe
nomenon occurred here last night about 3
o'clock. A luminous body, looking as large
as an elephant, with a long tail attached
suddenly appeared in the southeast* m sky
and shot out of sight in a southerly direc
tion. The night was claadkss and without
a moon, but the stars went out and a strange
soft blue and white light lit up the w hole
firmament as bright a* day. The light was
only five or six seconds in duration, w hen all
became suddenly dark again. To a person
at the south end it appeared like a fearful
explosion in the vicinity of the northeast
arm, in which direction the light was
brightest, but the noise supposed to accom
pany most explosions was absent.
“A reporter was crossing North End Com
mon. when he was startled by a sudden
burst of fire lighting up the whole neigh
borhood. The meteor descended like a shot
out of the misty air. It looked like o large
electric light, and a long tad of sparks
trailed behind. The whole presented a beau
tiful spectacle. To the reporter the fiery
visitor seemed to strike the ground a short
distance away. Afterward a low. whirring
sound was heard in the direction where; it
had disappeared. The sound kept increas
ing in volume, till the roar was terrible. It
seemed os if the bed of the orean was a
huge pot and the water was boiling over.
Some people fancied they felt a slight trem
or of the earth, but most persons felt
nothing of the kind. The noise, which
was terrifying, lasted fully a minute and a
half.”
What was doubtless the same meteor was
seen in Halifax last night, but the time was
9 o'clock. Its fall was accompanied by a
most vivid illumination of the whole city.
There was a sudden and almost ilazzling
flash, lasting for a couple of moments, then
all was over. At Barrington darkness pre
vented the prosecution of any search, as the
apperatve was not followed by any other
unusual phenomena.
The meteor was also seen at Lockeport,
Shelburne. Yarmouth, Amherst and other
towns in different parts of the province. A
Bridgewater dispatch says that when first
seen there it appeared to be a large falling
star, but before it reached the car* li it, burst
into small stars of exceeding brilliancy,
which illuminated the heavens in a truly
grand style. A hissing sort of noise was
plainly heard there during the meteor’s fail.
A Lockeport dispatch says the meteor was
followed a few minutes after its disappear
ante by a sound resembling that of distant
thunder. •
GEORGIA AT THE CENTENNIAL.
Few In Numbers, bu - They Made an
Excellent Display.
Prom the Philadelphia Times, Sept. 17.
On Washington avenue, east of Broad
street. Gov. John B. Gordon, of Georgia,
and his staff, sat on their horses from 10
o’clock until 12:30, when they filed into their
position in the parade. To the rear, on the
south side of the street, the Southern States'
contribution to the military pageant was
represented by thirty-two privates of the
Atlanta Rifles, under command of Capt. A.
C. Bne:*d. They were all young men of
more than oidinary muscular development,
and as they stood at ease until the command
“Forward—march” was given they looked
the very beau-ideal of Southern chivalry.
Their uniform was a brown, full dress coat,
blue pants aud a snow-white shako, which
glistened in the midday sun and rendered
more showy and attractive their large gold
epaulettes and heavily gold-braideu coats.
The Governor’s staff were nearly all old
soldiers who had served in the Southern
army from the outbreak of the wag until
the surrender of Richmond. They con
sisted of Col. Charles H. Olmstead, Lieut.
Cols. Wilberforce Daniel, W. H. Sheppard,
E. J. Murphy, Edward E. Young, F. B.
Smith, C. M. Harper, George H. Waring,
Seaton Grantland, F. J. 51. Daly, and
Capts. Falligant anil Frank Hardeman.
Lieut. Col. Vf . H. Ross was also on Gov.
Gordon’s staff, but hail been detailad to
serve on the staff of Gen. Sheridan.

been put in motion, an ineident happem-d
which provoked a good deal of laughter
and some cheers. The band of the Fifth

that the contingent from the historic

A Villa Riddled by Thunderbolt*
New Orleans. Hept. 18.—A violent
thunderstorm raged last night along the
Gulf coast. At Bay St. Louis, a summer
resort on Mississippi sound, flftv miles fn*m
here, the villa of Mr. J. W. Platt, a mer
chant of this city, was struck simultane
ously by lightning in five or six places. The
clap of thunder that followed sounded like
the explosion of a hundre 1 cannon. One oi
the butts struck the cornice of the house,
tore it off, and carried it 100 yard* away to
the roof of Mr. Ward’s residence. Another
entered the library, smashing a holothroug i
one of tile pictures as large u; a cannon bull.
Another entered the room of Miss Pintt,

the bolster from under the brad of the

EXPERIENCE OF A DETECTIVE.
The Rabbit that Came to Visit Him
After Dr. Brir.siy’s Death.
From the Meat York Sun.
I am going to tell you of a queer experi
ence I once had while following my profes
sion of detective. Some will smile and some
will sneer, but I shall have the consolation
of knowing that I am honest and truthful
in what I say.
One night fifteen years ago, while on the
: street at a late hour, I was accosted by a
! stranger who asked for money enough to
i pay for a lodging. Our instructions were
to arrest every beggar and vagrant, and it
was my duty jj rua- this man in.
I He male no protest, aid I had scarcely
j walked a block with him when 1 found that
i tny prisoner was a man of more than or
|di iary intelligence That he was a little
; off in his upper story was plain enough
after a few minutes' conversation, but that
he was a gentleman and a scuoiar was also
ju-1 as plain. He was ragged and penniless,
and his hollow cheeks ur.d glittering eves
proved the presence of disease in his system.
las D-ad of taking him to the station 1 con
ducted him to a cheap lodging house and
restaurant, and had paid for a meal and a
bed for him, and was going away when he
laid a hand on my arm and whispered
“lf you can wait until I have had a bite
to eat. I cau tell you a great secret.”
That caught me at once. I hoped for
some revelation regarding an old murder or
robbery case, and couid bar'll}' retain ray
impatience until he had finished his meal.
When I came to see him with his hat off I
knew that he was a professional man—
probably a doctor. He had a high forehead,
an intelligent face, and would have been
fine looking if he had been in health. He
was a victim of consumption, and it would
have been safe to wager that he would not
live a week. When he had finished the
meal he seemed imbued with new life. It
was a warm summer night, and at his re
3uest we entered a public park and sat
own on one of the benches.
“To begin with,” he said, as we got seat
ed, “my name is Richard Brinsly, and I
have been a physician and surgeon for the
last thirty years. I have been out of prac
tice for the last five years, and, as to that,
have also been out of home and money and
frien is. I spent niy time digesting medi
cal science anil trying experiments, when I
should liave been attending on my patients,
and as a consequence people soon got to
know me for a crank, and I was driven out
of practice. lam now speaking of four or
five years ago. Before I began to dabble
in theory or experiment I held up my head
with the best of them, and I never knew a
want.”
I had frequently heard of the man. At
one time he stood among the highest in the
medical profession in Ht. Ixrais. He had
gone daft, people said, on transmigration
aud other theories, and his vagarat life and
exposure bad induced the disease which was
soon to end his days. The great secret
he was to unfold was not connected with a
crime, as I had hoped for, but nevertheless,
I found myself feeling anxious to hear what
he had to tell. We got settled down again,
and he continued:
“The first idea of transmigration was
very repugnant to me. We have all been
led to beiieve that when man dies the soul
ascends to heaven to live on. and with our
own eyes we see the body laid away in the
ground. That the soul of one dying should
take possession of bird, beast or reptile in
stead of returning to its Creator is against
sentiment and reason, but still some of our
wisest and best men so believe. A? I said,
the theory was repugnant to me. I argued
fiercely in opposition to it, and at one time
I felt that nothing on earth could bring me
over to adopt it. You see, among my best
friends were a number of believers, and one
night I was called to the bedside of one of
theui, who had been mortally wounded by
the accidental discharge of a revolver. It
was plain from the first that nothing could
be done for him. He suffered but little
pain, and was iu his senses to the very last.
He know that he had got to go, and in his
very dying hour he said to me:
“ ‘Richard, I believe more firmly than
ever in the theory of transmigration.
Whether I shall taka the form of bird or
beast after death I do not know, but if it is
within the bound* of possibility I will ap
proach you in whatever form if is, and you
shall know me. Remember, Richard, you
shah know me.’
“He spoke with such earnestness, and un
der such circumstances, that I was deeply
affected, and for the first time I began to
believe there might be something in the
theory. He died within half an hour of my
leaving the house, and he had been dead
two hours when I returned to my office. I
was living then in Chicago, near the comer
of State and Sixteenth streets. There
were only wife and self, and office
and living rooms were up stairs. It was a
dreary, rainy night, and after mv wife had
gone to bed I sat gazing into the fire in the
open grate and wondering over the case. It
must have been near midnight when I rose
up to retire to the bed room, and as I got on
my feet I heard a tapping at the window.
You'll think Foe’s 'Riven,’ sir, and so did
I, but nevertheless, there was a tapping,
tapping at the window. It was at a win
dow facing State street, anil when I lifted
the curtain and lookiil out I discovered a
black object on the window sill. I cautious
ly raised the sash, and lc! a partridge flut
tered into the room. The bird was damp
and wet, and it fluttered over to the fire
and dried its feathers while it steadfastly
regarded me. I own ud to you, sir, that I
was startled, aud that I ha<i no doubt that
the spirit of my friend had come back to
me.
“It may have been three minutes from
tile time the bird entered the room before it
spread it* wings and alighted on my shoul
der. Then it put ite bib against mv fai-e
and caressed me in a dozen ways, and when
1 naked it' it was the spirit of my dead
fri**l it uttered notes of delight. I stroked
its feathers and talked soothingly, but after
ten minutes it flew to the window and
plainly intimated its desire to depart. 1
opened the sash, and with a last caress it
flew away into tho storm and the darkness.’’
“And le that your great secret.*” I asked,
as the ntau ceased speaking and leaned back.
“That is it, and what do you think of it; ’
he ariosi in turn.
“All nonsense. Better let whisky alone.”
“My friend.” hr said after u long nausj
“I saw what 1 havo told you, and I lx*-
lieve in the theory thus illustrated. No
argu.n-nt that man couid advance would
change ray opinion.”
“Kune you’ll l’eol better to-morrow.” I
said us 1 io;-c to go.
“Hold on: you shall not go yet,” he ex
claimed as he forced me to sit down. “Iris
ten '.veil to wliat 1 say. 1 am dying, y
know it. The end is nearer *!>ao you thiuk :
within tcuty-four hour* I shall hep. corpse.

“H-hcw:' 1 gasped, a little startled by ids
earmstr.es.
“By i etnrniug to earth in some other

The next afternoon, between 2 and 3
o'clock, the dead body oi my singular
friend tva>. found in an unoccupied store,
where he lmd crawled, lik • a rat, to die. 1
did not know this, mind you, but was at
my own home, two mile.' away, asleep on a
l<> mge >n the sittiug room, with uy wife
enga/id up tslss . when I was suddenly
niMu.-ed by aomotliiug touching my hutid.
1 sprang up, wide awake in h i in.-t.jut, and
there Ht iny feet was u txiuutiful
white uud gray rabbit. As 1 sank
baric it sprung up into my lap and
cuddled its fa e to mine witli every
demonstration ot delight. There wms no
llet of the kind anywhere hi toe neighbor
hood, nod when l came t i examine it doner
I knew that it was a wiUl sp-vimeii. It liud
f lie i iiai iur of tiie common rabbit < f the
Melds, hut wus c<V’ and tidy. I was
Hinamd, knowing mt ah door* und win
down were ch mm). While I wu trying lo
thiuk Imw the undttai isiuld have got in on
me, it sat lip on e* ' stroked my chunk*
wiUi iU i .o, n i noil loir M)>vod
'ike a fat. Without knowing that I was
to speak. I asked:
"Give me a sign that you are the spirit of
mv friend of last night."
The rabbit again cuddled to my fare,
stroked my cheeks, and acted as if the
wards were understood. Then it sprang
down, ran to the door, and, as I ojienod it,
the little creature scampered out into the
, kitchen, and thence, by a window, to the
1 alley. I never saw it again. Is there such
i a tiling as transmigration? Was the soul,
or spirit or substance-of the dead doctor
embodied in the hare, and did it come to me
to keep his promise*

Advice to Motners.
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrun should
always be used when children are cutting
teeth. It relieves the little suffer at once; it
produces natural, quiet sleep by relieving
the child from pain and the little cherub
awakes as “bright as a button.”
It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the
child, softens the gums, allays all pain, re
lieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the
best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether
arising from teething or other causes. 25
cents a bottle.
