BPKNCSR STILL STICKS.
The Geological How Will Probably Go
Before the Legislature.
Atlanta, Ga.. Feb. 7.—State Geologist
Spencer seems to have determined on with
holding hie resignation for the preeent, and
the legislature will probably be appealed to
to aettie the differences betwsen him and
the board. When the assembly takes hold of
the matter mi. y believe that ano’her effort
will be made to abolish the geological de
partment. On the other band, it is sug
gested toot the law may be modified
so as to give the chief geologist the
choice of bis The members of
the board themselves have been beard to
concur in the opinion that under the exist
act he ie too greatly handicapped. Dr. j
Spencer is reported to have taken the field
to-day in obedience to orders from the
board A letter to the governor from Prof.
Willetof Mercer college, stating that his
indorsement’of Assistant Whatley ws* not
fairly obtained and used, has turned tbs
tide of public opinion somewhat in the
ahief’s favor.
Willett’s letter.
The letter addressed to the governor by
Prof. Willett place* Assistant Whatley in
an exceedingly unenviable light. The pro
fessor states flatly that his indorsement of
'Whatley aas obtained under false
pretenses, and that he was utterly
astonished on discovering the use that
had been made of it. Had be known these
facte, he would certainly have sided with
Dr. Spencer, who has his sympathy in bis
present trouble. Assistant Whatley, he
says, came to him when he was
sick and insisted on having his in
dorsement, claiming that he intended
doming a society of young geologists.
Tills society had not yet been named, there
fore he wished the profesaor’s letter ad
dreeeed “To whom it may concern.” Maps
were shown the professor, drawn by Assis
tant Wbatley, and be Anally gave him the
letter without putting him through a rigid
examination.
A meeting of the geological b ard was
beld this afternoon, Prof. Willett’s state
ment having been in their band* for the
purpose of considering it. The meeting
lasted but a short time, and no action was
taken, as it was impossible to find Dr.
Spencer. The report tnat be has taken
the field may not be well founded. He left
here two or three nights ago to consult a
friend, and may not have returned. It is
said that be has been conferring with a
lawyer, and all aorta of new developments
teem probable.

SCROFULA
Is that impurity of the blood which produces
unsightly lumps or swellings in the neck;
which causes running sores on the arms,
legs, or feet; which develops ulcers in the
eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or
deafness; which is the origin of pimples, can
cerous growths, or “humors;” which,fasten
ing upon the lungs, causes consumption and
death. It is the most ancient of all diseases,
and very few persons are entirely free from it.
H r ß c e an CURED
By taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, which, by
the remarkable cures it has accomplished,
has proven itself to be a potent and peculiar
medicine for this disease. If you suffer from
scrofula, try Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
“ Every spring my wife and children have
been troubled with scrofula, my little boy,
three years Old, being a terrible sufferer.
East spring he was one mass of sores from
head to feet. "We all took Hood's Sarsaparilla,
and all have been cured of the scrofula. My
little boy is entirely free from sores, and all
four of my children look bright aud healthy.”

By the term spawned we mean that eloss of
individuals who hare, In one way or another,
acquired a loose knowledge of the printing
business. In this capacity the spawned be
comes a bloated tadpole, and the way he
wriggles through the duties of his position is
too laughable to Illustrate. To such we would
say, study some other business. TOWNSEND
does not belong to this class. He Is one of the
best workmen in this section. He Is fixed up in
a modern way, having the best material money
can buy. Work wanted.
