The lovers of the drama, in Athens
will be gratified to know that John
T. Ford, witli his company, will be
hero next Saturday. Mr. Ford al
ways has one of the best companies
that travels, and his reputation is alv
ready made in Athens.
Mr. Ford's opening performance
will be in a matinee on Saturday af
ternoon at half past two. He will also
give a grand comedy on Saturday
night. That both these performances
will be largely attended, we cannot
doubt, front the expressions that we
have heard from nil sides, Every one
seems gratified at the prospect of see
ing one of the best companies in the
union. Heretofore they have always
had good houses here, and wc doubt
not they will this time. Athens has as
tine appreciation of historic talent, as
any place in Georgia, and Mr. Ford,
as we are informed, has uover disap
pointed an Athens audicDce.

A Solid Drug Hoorn*.
We hear a good deal about counties
that are solid, but the old reliable
drug house of E. C. Long & Co., is
one of the solid institutions of Ath-
ens. It was started in 1851 by C. W.
nnd II. R. J. Long—the senior part
ner being Dr.“ Crawford Yj[. Long,
who has sine* acquired at> much m-
lebrity. In 186C, Dr. H. C . Billups
was admitted aud the firm became
Longs & Billups. Thus it went until
April 1st, 1877, when it dunged to
C. W. & E. C. Long, Dr. Long tak
ing into hnsinesa with him, his son, E.
C. Long, who had then been connect
ed with the store since 1870.
This partnership was terminated by
tlie dc&lh of Dr. Long, nnd January
lst,l 878, the firm became what it is at
present—Ii C. Long & Co. This
house dot s a big business. For some
years past it has been making a gain
of fifty per cent, each year It docs
a large jobbing ‘business, and sells
goods to retail dealers along the Geor
gin, Northeastern and Air-Line
roads. As indicating not only the
magnitude of the trade Long & Co.,
do, but also as showing the nmonnt
of building going on, we mention the
fact that during the month of August
they sold 10,000 pound of lead.
They keep a large stock of goods on
hand, and are ready at all times to
meet the lowest prices that can be
made elsewhere for the same lines of
goods. We bespeak for them the large
patronage which they so well deserve.
Well Prepared for Work.
We di not snppoe we exaggerate,
when we say that in the matter of
apparatus and all the appliances which
arc necessary to give a good collegiate
training, the University of Georgia
far excels the other colleges in the
state. I1ie other Ary, by the kind
ness of Chancellor Mell and Prof.
Charbonnicr, we had the pleasure of
looking through some of the depart
ments in the Moore college, and our
inspect ion. though casual, was satis
factory in the highest degree.
Tlie engineering department is fill
ed with models so'numerous 'andljso
varied, that they really constitute a
museum, and are full of interest to
any one. The philosophical depart-
partment contains apparatus to illus
trate everything in physics; while
the chemical department is fitted with
apparatus and chemicals so that this
abstruse science can bo learned—so
far as it is in the power of young sta-
denls to learn it—by actual experi
ment.
The means which have been for
years at the command ot the board ol
trustees, have been used liberally and
with proper efiaerimination, for supply
ing the institution with those nppar-
tcnancks withont which a college is a
college only in name. That this noble
old institution, which has graduated
so many sons of Georgia, and whose
alumni are found in every walk of
life, and honoring every vocation,
should receive a constantly increasing onC '
patronage is much to be desired.
We are glad to learn that there are
many new applications—that is, many
from young tnen wlio have not here
tofore been to the college. Every
citizen of Athens, every alumnus of
the University, and every paper in
Georgia whiclt really desires the pros
perity of the University, should unite
in hearty effoits to increase its patron
age and consequently its usefulness
The Banner will ever be found ready
to lend its aid—such as 'H is—to the
advancement of this grand object.

Although the weather had been

of people assembled to be present at
the 0]>ening. Aud what a niaguifix

At the bead ot Oconee street, just
where it joiits Broad, there stands a
post, on top of which is the figure of
a man with a tight-fitting coat. He
is a decent-looking man, and in front
of him is a tin stove; and hie hand ia
raised, pointing southward, as if he
wss advising the stove to go down to
the river and wash itself. In reality,
this immoveable man is poiuting to an
object directly in front of him. This
object is the stove and tin store of A.
K. Childs A Co,
It is really a three-story building,
but one stoiy is a basement and the
other is partially hidden from the
front by a portico. So unpretentious
looking is this store, that drummers
from northern houses have passed it
by thinking it was too small to war
rant them in soliciting its trade.
But when you once get inside, and
look through up-stairs, down-stairs
and basement, yon have some idea ot
the magnitude of tlie stock. The
store is near y as full as an egg is of
meat. There >lie forty dozen coffee*
pots in one pile. Here, on this
are rolling-pins enough to ctuqt
the refractory husbands in the ninl
district. Here are siit'ole stacks
pans, of all sizes, and there are 'far
gions of kitchen hardware.
But this is in general. Coming
down to particulars, we can say that
they buy always by the car-load. They
sell on ar average two stoves a dsv.
They register every ntan that buys
one. The year ending 18th July,
1876 they sold 227 ; the next year
238; the next 500; the next 593.
From tlie 1st to the 24th September,
they had sold 38. Their trade goes
all around Athens in Georgia, aud to
North Carolina, and they have even
sold some in Alabama They have
sold as high as 27 stoves in one day.
They will soon have in another car
load.
They do a big jobbing trade. They
have improved machinery, and make
everything in the way of tin-ware,
that they sell. They sell to Madison,
Washington, Union Point, and their
trade h as even gone down on the
Miliedgevilla and Eatonton railroad,
and^ have sold some bills in Augusta

was sitting in his house, reading,
when hi* little son, aged about ten
years, ran in and said that a dog bad
tried to bite him. Mr Jonas picked
up his bat aud went out to see about
it. Going into the yard, he saw a
strange dog run under the house. As
Mr. Jonas stooped to look under the
house, the dog suddenly jumped at
him mid came so near that be brush
ed his face. By the time Mr.
Jonas could straighten up, the
dog jumped at him again. This
was twice more repeated, and
each time Mr. Jonas knocked the dog
off by striking him underneath tha
mouth, with hu> right arm. Every
time, tho infuriated animal'* teeth
could be heard to snap, as he c ime to
the attack; his eyes glared green and
glassy, and the saliva ran in streams,
from bis lips.
After the fourth onset, Mr. Jonas
remembered that he had heard that
when a mad dog is infuriated and can
get something to bite, hia madness is,
Ibr the time, satisfied. Acting on this
idea, quick as thought, he thrust his
hat into the dog’s mouth ; and as the
dog grasped it, both fell to the
ground. Both rose at the same time,
but the dog—as Mr. Jonas had sup
posed be would—ceased the attack,
and ran into the lot, and under the
bare, , t ,
Mr. Jonas got out bis gun and shot
the dog, but did not quite kill him.
With the aid of a pitch-fork, be drew
the animal out, and knocked him on
the head with an axe, which finished
him.

they ought to be ashamed. This in

names of half a dozen men of stand
ing who came to town Speer men and
went away so utterly disgnsted that

After the conclusion ot Bell’s
each, Mr. Speer replied, in one of
$-moet remarkable speeches we ever
heard. ' Remarkable in the fact that
he brought ont and read before tbe
crowd the private letters ot Col, Bell,
written to what he supposed was a
friend, and a letter from Maj. Sim
mons to Dr. Carlton written ten
years ago. Thu unusual coarse
created something of a sensation in
the crowd. But not satisfied with
this he made a personal attack on
Maj. Simmons as though he did not
have enough to 'do to defend himself
from the grave charges which bad
beeu pressed upon with such force by
Col. Bell. He continued tliis per
sonal attack on Maj. Simmons, until
the latter became so exasperated that
he denounced him as a liar, and noti
fied Speer that he had gone out of his
way to attack a private citizen who
had not made h ■single speech against
him in the campaign, bnt he proposed

everybody regretted the
lor tlie interruption, it wss
it that the feeling isf-the crowd
was with Simmons, because he had
been unjustifiably attacked when he
bad no opportunity to reply. *
From gentlenmen who mingled
witli the crowd for the purpose ot as
certaining how the people stood be
tween the aspiiants, we learn that
there was a very large majority of
the while men present who were for
Bell. From the way they rejoiced
and the noise they made the indica
tions were that the colored voters
present were solid for Speer.
At the close of this discussion Col
Renfroe was introduced and addres
sed a small crowd tor about three
quarters ot an hour, and was replied
to by Maj. Speer. \Ve did not hear
either of the speeches, and therefore,
are unable to give any of the points
made on each other. Some of the
boys who hun- on to hear it all say
they made the fur fly.
After the discussion. Mr. Paxton of
Whitfield, a sort of llepublican-
Greeubacker, mounted the stand and
orated for a while to the silent dead
who sleep beneath the monument near
where the stand was erected.
This ended the day and the people
returned to their homes, chock full of
politics, and will for the next few
weeks enter into a lively discussion of
the cotton fields that are “ white unto

Legal Advertisements 1
(From the Gwinnett Herald.)
On last Thursday onr streets were
thronged. The superior court was in
session and it had been announced
that Messrs. Bell and Speer, candi
dates for Congress, would open their
joint discussion on that day. Messrs.
Renfroe and D. N. Speer, candidates
for State Treasurer, were
band, add desired to be heal
Gwinnett dp to this time;
remarkably quiet politically. Only
one s]ieech had been made daring the
campaign, and while the people were
informing themselves upon the issues
there was no excitement. This was
to be the opening of the campaign in
the county, and from eight hundred
to one thousand pcop’e assembled to
hear the discussion.
Judge Erwin di clincd to give more
than three hours recess at 12 o’clock,
as the business of the cour- was press
ing. It was therefore derided that as
it was their appointment, Messrs.
Bell and Speer should be allowed the
three hours and the other gentlemen
could occupy the remainder ofthe day
if they choose.
CuL Julian, chairman of the Exec
utive Committee of tlie county, was
made chairman, and tlie terms agreed
on was that Mr. Speer was to open in
a speech of one hour. Col. Bell to fol
low in an hour and a half, and Mr.
Speer to conclude in half an hour.
On account of pressing legal engage
ments we did not have the pleasure of'
hearing all of either speech, aud there
fore, cannot give anything like an ac
curate report ot the points made by
each. Mr. Speer opened his speech
with an extravagant eulogy of .htiuaell
aud read extracts from the letters and
interviews of several leading men to
show what they thought of him. His
self glorification was. indeed, amus
ing, and seemed to tickle bis friends
immensely, if one could judge ot its
effects from the clapping of hand* and
hurrahs for Speer. He has some c r
the graces of an orator, and has a
abundant store ot anecdotes which a
ways attracts a promiscuous crow
just as the wry fac.s and sharp say
iogs of the clown bring applause in

gregional record on the subject of it

There was no interruption.

and clinching each position with the

to the heels of his audience. He did
not se- k by dap trap ai d humorous
