The ex pense to the company for railroad fare, hoard and hard was over 8500 and it.is with pride that J call your attention to the fact, that all ot the above expenses were met by the company without asking any aid of its many friends. „ During the year considerable inters est.has been evolved in a scheme for building a new truck house tor our company, among both our members and tViends, one of whom, Mr. Lloyd Williams, has presented to the com pany a very handsome drawing and specification for a new house, but as yet no plan or site has been definitely settled upon.

The hotel is very pleasantly filled,leaving sufficient room for a few more. Among the Athen ians here I notice Miss Speer, Mrs. General Smith, Miss Lena Smith, Mrs. Deloney, Miss Rosa Deloney, Mrs. Meeker, and Mr. T. Deloney, who, by the way has almost entirely recovered from his recent sickness. From Atlanta are to lound. Dr. John son and family, Miss Lucy Erwin, Sirs. Bostick and daughter, Mrs. Hunter, the Misses Peck, Mr. and Mrs. Anderson. It will he a pleasure to the many friends of Maj Homier son in Athens to learn that he is re cuperating rapidly and is almost him self again. There will lie a grand ball at the hotel to=night which I will notice at another time. I find wherever I go that tho ind* 4 ' pendent principles ofonr American Democratic Government arp"’’thor oughly inculcated in the hearts of the people, and that the day of “ rings' and combinations of men who have heretofore handed together for per sonal agrandizement, are virtually at an end. The action of the Gainesville convention (?) is looked upon almost generally as a most “cusumate L.ice” as well as an attempted impo sition upon a free people. In Toccoa City, the Norwood banner has been unfurled to the mountain breezes, and i occupies a prominent position across i one of the public thoroughfares. The people are solid for Speer and Nor- w(od and will give them a large ma jority at the ensuing election. In a conversation with a gentleman from Rabun eounty he assured me posi tively of a large majority for both of these candidates in his section. That Speer will he elected is already as sured. That Norwood will be our - next Governor, grows daily more clearly petceptihle to us, and is de-> nionstrated in the fact that Colquitt’s popularity is fast waning before. the I frauds and corruptions which has I characterized his ndmhi'S'.ralhm, i they become known to the people anti • it is a question of considerable doubt ; as to whether the people of Georgia i are now prepared to give him his I much sought l'or “vindication.” and in so doing burden the lair fame of ' our State with a shame unparalleled in its history—under a democratic acrainist ration. Yours Truly, Traveler. The Norwood Club. Editor l)aily Banner:—Upon the train yesterday between Athens •ud Lula, I had the pleasure of meet ing the Hon. Emory Speer ami =elK joyed a conversation with him. Mr? Speer was then on his way. to Gaines ville to meet an appointment with Mr. Bell, the nominee of the Gainesville convention, anJ arrange for a j tint discussion of the political issnes which are at present harnessing Mr. Bell. That Mr. Bell will receive “fair play’’ at the hands ot the “lavo-i-e” of the old Ninth, there can he no doubt. I was considerably surprised to learn that a report was current in Athens and elsewhere, to the effect that Mr. Speer was instrumental in procuring the appointment of W. II. Heard as route agent on the N. E. R. R. Such is not the fact. I have had personal conversation with Mr. Rhodes, the applicant for said posi tion, whom it is claimed Mr. Sjieer defeated by assisting Heard and from him have a statement denying em phatically the charges against Mr. Speer. Pledger secured Heard’s ap pointment, aud not Mr. Speer. , Among the new leatures of this' , 'delightful. resort, I notice a rower " Vft* report publishedhi Wer- wlnch has just been completed some Jay’s Banner of the proceedings ol the Senatorial convention it This ten ible disease can be controll ed and relieved liyJacobt’Compound Jyrnp ol Heart Leaves.

The Clarke County Delegates in the Sanatoria , r Convention. stated that Clarke county voted against the resolutions that were adopted. This was incorrect. The delegates from this county voted heartily lor the 1st and 2d resolutions—endorsing Hancock and English and declaring tliat the Western and Atlantic rail road ought to remain the property of tlie State. On the 3d resolution— declaring it to be the sense of the convention that its nominee should support the Hon. Joseph E Brown as United States Senator—they vot ed neither for nor against. They did not vote at all on that resolution.

We were honored yesterday by a visit from this distinguished divine, who is in the city visiting his son, the Rev. C. D. Campbell, the able and popular pastor ot the Baptist church here. The venerable preach er has past his three-score and ten, but is still zealous and active in mind and body in the service of the Master to whom he has owned sole allegiance tor more titan half a centiuy, and we firmly believe there is not another in the state who does more substan tial labor in the Great Cause. He is, aud has been for years, the good shepherd of the poor in the city of his residence—Columbus, Georgia, where be daily and houily proves his love for God by loving and serving his fellow-men. So arduous and long continued have been his labors that be has been obliged to suspend them for a time to recuperate tired nature’s exhausted energies, and we sincerely hope that liis sojourn in the up-couutry may give a long new lease to bis most nsetnl life.

We took a look yesterday at the Opera House and hardly recognized it as thu same establishment we had known before. In truth, it is not the same. The carpenter’s hammer ami the painter’s brush, under the direct ing genius of Mr. Joues, have wrought a magical and admirable change in the appearance of our Theatre. When the public next enters it they will find themselves in a freshly and delicately painted hall, with newly laid crcoa matting on the floor, with a seating capacity in the parquette and i’mi j circle of of five iiuudred. and in the galleries of four hundred. They will ] find that the old, ungainly, incommo dious gallery lias been demolished uud in its stead a very handsome and commodious one, with a partition di viding it, ou no side of which the ccloic.l people will have two hundred good seats, while ou the other side arc two hundred mci.e for those of the whites who may preler them. These gallery seats are really excellent, and, on many occasions are preferable to seats below.' There are separate en trances to them for the whites and the colored people The hand of improvement has been busy on tlie stage loo, and the actors of the coming season will have reason to be grateful to Mr. Jones for fils thoughtfulness of their wants. The uumber of rooms for their use have been increased trotf^three to six.and, best of all, a safe and convenient meai s of ex t and entrance iron) the rear has feea provided,—a strong, broad stairway running up trom Thomas street Tlie first company of the season will be tbe Templeton Star Alliance Troupe, the evening of the J7th inst., and during the season we are proinia. ed the pleasure ot seeing, among oth ers, Jeflerson, Raymond, and the Florences.
