TUK8DAY, OcTOBVK 5, 1880. Volf at Juiisrr McDonald's Wagon-Yard. Last night twenty-four wagons, with thirty-fivo voters, Ironi a<ljoining counties stopped at Judge McDou- aid’s wagon-yard, and upon taking a vote Colquitt received 34 voles and Noiwood 1. The Hoy* are Coming. Last week Dr. Mell received a let ter from a teacher in southwest Geor» gia, saying that lie would send five boys out of his school, to the Univer sity next Monday. The day before he had a letter from another saying he would send three. Let them come on. Candy and Flour. As indicating the immense kusi~ ness done by Messrs. Talinadge, Hodgson & Co., we mention the fact that they have now on the road two car-loads of stick candy, and that last week they ordered twenty-one car loads of flour of the same brand. What do you think of that? Crops In Madison. Mr. James T. Power, who lives near I’aoli, in Madison county, reports a good cotton crop in that part of the country. The drought from which some parts of North-East Georgia suffered in Jane aud July last, did not seriously affect that section, .and there will he a good yield of cotton. The corn crop docs not turn out s > well. Peas, turnips and potatoes are doing well. Tire farmers arc in grod condition, make their own provisions and are generally out o! debt. This is genuine prosperity and no mistake. Tin- Floods of Thursday Myslit. The rains of Thursday night last, were very destructive in the lower part of Oconee county. Messrs. II. M. Saxon, J. M. Willoughby, G. B. Smith, J. P. Elder, and L. W. Saxon, hail almost their entire crops of corn and cotton flooded and washed away. I). W. Elder lost most of his fodder, and his corn was considerably dam aged. Fayette Marshal lost his fodder and potato crop, and his corn was damag ed considerably. Thomas F. Miller lost his fodder and cotton, anj his corn was nearly ruined. These all lived in the Skull Shoals district. The water was four lecl higher than it was in ihe May freshet. A Touching Incident. Mr. Thomas W. Gean, the carrier ot the mail between Alliens aud Watkinsville, informs us that Tues day morning, while in Watkinsville, he saw a colored man go to Sheriff Overby, and ask to be pul in jail and chained. Being asked his reason, he said he had been bitten by a mad dog, and for fear that he would himself be at tacked with hydrophobia, and bite some one else, be desired to be incarcerated and chained. The sher iff complied, aud the poor fellow is now in durance, awaiting, in all prob ability, the most horrible death that can bcinll a man. This man is Thom as Akins, who was bitten by the dog which Mr. Thomas Jonas killed—an account of « hieh the Banner pul>- lished a few days since. The medical faculty ought to take hold ol this case. The man ought not to be left to die without iu> dibit to save hiiu. If his case could be suocesslully treated, it would not only save a valuable human life, but would be of great benefit to medical science. Why not look into the matter, Messrs. Doctors ? Capture of a Man Slayer. On thq fifth of August, James Seagraves and a Mr. Royall, white men and friends, had a difficulty in a lmr-room, in Clarke County, Georgia. Koyall cursed Seagraves, whereupon the latter anted an empty box, on whioh he sat, and struck Koyall on the back of the head, knocking him insensible Koyall lingered for some time and died, and Seagraves fled, all trace of him being lost. He came to this city, and secured work at one of the cotton mi Is below the city. A few days ago Lieutenant B. F. Culp, a shrewd and experienced officer of the Athens Police, obtained a clue as to Seagraves* whereabouts, and came to this city on Monday night. A day or two ago Seagraves injured Id- hand in some way, knocked off work, and also catae to the city. Consequet tly, as Lieut. Culp was wailing a convey ance to take him to Seagraves’ sup posed /V reabouts, he saw his man walking leisurely up the street. The officer stepped behind a tree with his ' assistaut, and as Seagraves came up seized him. He mftde no resistance, and submitted quietly, trembling, as the officer described it, ‘ until you could hear him rattle in his boots.’ Hu was locked up, acd consented to go wi’hout a requisition. He bad lit tle to say. Lieutenant Culp left for Georgia with bis prisoner last night. The above we get from the Daily News, of Greenville, S. C., of Wed- neoday. Mr. Culp, and bis assistant, Mr. Hill have done a good work in bringing Seagraves back, that be tuay be made to stand trial for the crime charged against him. KENTUCKY MULES AND HORSES. On October first I will receive a ear load of extra fine Mules and Horses direct from Kentucky. Farmers, Merchants, and others, contemplating purchasing, should call, and see my slock before buying elsewhere. W. 8. Holman. aept25-d4t-w2w . The weather lias a touch of autumn iu it. People arc turning their minds to coal. Bunks county court is iu session this week. The bracing breed* come bounding from the mountains. The fence of the Catholic church is being paiuled. Mr. John Finch is now clerking at Mr. Myers’. Oysters and bananas have arrived in t lie city. The steeple on the university chap el is being repaired. Everybody you meet speaks of the delightful weather. The Athens merchants gel a great deal of trade from Oconee. Talntadge, Hodgson & Co. are hav ing an elevator put iu their store. Mr. Holcomb, ol the police force, has returned from North Georgia. The infant child of Mr. K. W. Saye died Sunday morning, anil was buried Monday. Mr. Julius Vonderlcitb, who acci dentally shot himself, a few days since, is out again. There is a very interesting meeting every Tuesday night at Oconee street church. Mr. L. J. Lampkin has lieeu very ill, from jaundice, several days. He is improving some. Rev. Messrs. Bighatn, Yarbrough and liohius have returned home Irom Bethlehem camp-meeting. Mr. Faust, of Oglethor|>e county, has tfiken a position with Mr. Charles Stern, clothier, of this city. This fine weather brings the ladies out in large numbers, and keeps the dry-goods merchants busy. Judge Asa M. Jackson is now get ting in his winter supply of coal, tor thecourthon-e. It takes about ten tons. Col. Huggins has in his store a chi na cup and saucer, overlaid with gold plate. They cost ten dollars and are gorgeous. Mr. John Bird’s new house on Hancock avenue is nearly finished, and be expects to move in to it this week. Judge Walton B. Harris, a notice ol whose death appears in the Banner, was the eldest brother of Col. Y. L. G. llarr’s, of Athens. Tony Denier is booked for Athens next February. The people will come from far and near to see him and bis inimitable company. There is considerab'c interest man- tested about the colored man, Thomas Akins, who has been placed in Wat kinsville jail at his own instance, Mr. Garrison, of Gillrville, has a cup that he has drunk coffee out of twenty years. Yesterday Col. Huggins made him a present of a fine china cup and saucer. We had the pleasure of attending the Presbyterian Sunday-School last Sunday. Uuder the superintendence of Prof. W. W. Lumpkin, assisted by Geo. D. Thomas Esq., it is a model school. The singing is particularly good. A Kentucky girl died with heart disease a few hours after her marriage. There must be a moral to this. Per haps it is that girls shouldn't get mar ried. At any rate we advise the Athens girls—in order to be safe—to transfer their hearts before marriage. Athens wants a few more speeches. Can’t anyhody go up to Athens and give the boys a talk ? So says the Rome Tribune. The Athens boys seem capable of doing ih-ir own talk ing, if we may judge by the demon strations at Cohen’s opening, the Other night. Church decoration tor marriage occasions has grown so popular that the most exquisite taste is lavished in floral ornamentation. This scenic effect, aided by perfection in the way of musical accompaniment, makes fashionable marriage occasions a joy forever. They were in the wood. Said lie, looking things unutterable: T wish I were a fern, Gussie.’ 4 Why,’ she asked. ‘Why—p’raps—you—might —press me, too.’ She evidently hated to do it; but it is best to nip such things in the bud ; so she replied ‘I’m afraid you’re too green, Char ley.’ The poor boy almost blubbered. Wc were pleased to meet in our ol flee a few days since, Rev. J. A. Pers due, whu lives iu the vicinity of Ath cns. The writer has long known Mr. Perdue and esteemed him for his gentlemanly and Christian character. Any of Mr. Perdue’s friends who de sire to seod subscriptions to the Ban ner by him can do so, as he will receive them with pleasure. The latest style of bridal costume as watched with eager feminine eyes at a fashionable marriage a few days since was a white dainasse silk, and trimmed with silk and tnlle, together with a lovely sprinkling of lilies of the vnlley and the long bridal veil The costume was elegant And most becoming to the beantifnl bride, the train of the dress being long and qsuaro cut.—Ex. This is front the French, of course Little Jeanue baa a sister, a year mar ried. List week this sister became the mother of a pretty babe. ‘Look, mademoiselle,’ said the uur»e, show ing the new-born to its little aunt. ‘Isn’t it the prettiest dolly you ever saw?’ Jeanne danced with delight. Then she approached to take it Irom the nurse’s arms. A cry of disgust arose. ‘Poohl’ screamed Jeanne, ‘it's nothing but a meat baby!’ Death of Judge Walton B. Harris. The death of this aged and estima ble citizen took place yesterday morn ing in Atlanta, where he was visiting his son. The news of Judge Harris’ demise will cause general regret throughout the community. He was about seventy-eight yea.-sof age, and during almost this entire series of years ha has been a resident ot this section. He truly was one of the landmarks of the past, for most of the men who lived and flourished in our section as pioneers of the prosperity and development which we now be hold, have long since gone to their homes. J udge Harris was one of the few survivors. He tfas a most exem plary citizen, and in evci y relation of life proved to be a man of positive character and gteat usefulness. Fcr a long number ot years he was secre tary and treasurer of the Mobile and Girard Railroad Company, and has always been connected with and deep- ■y interested iu the management of that enterprise. At the last meeting of the stockholders of that company in the spring, Judge Harris, though in a very feeble state of health, was brought in and given a seat of honor. The meeting pkssed resolutions ex pressive of the esteem and high aj>- preciation in which he was held. The deceased was also during his active life honored by his people with a seat in the Senate of Alabama, where he served faithfully, with honor to him-* self and to his constituents. He was a prominent member of the Independ ent Order ol Odd Fellows and before disabled by age held the high office in that society of Deputy Grand Master of the United States. The death of such men causes universal lament, for their places are net easily filled. Judge Harris lenvi s an aged widow one with whom the fl iwer and the seared and yellow !• af of his life had been passed—and who must now walk alone till her time shall come to join him. This aged wife will receive the sympathy and coudoleuce of all who knew her lionoi ed husband. The remains arrived by the Atlanta train last night, and were carried to bis late residence in Girard.— Columbus Times. Damage liy Floods. The damage by the rain of last Thursday night and the consequent floods, was very great. The gin and packing house of Mr. John Calvin Johnson, on Porter’s creek, two miles below Watkinsville, was washed away. Even the abutments of the dam were washed away, as were also the stone piers, four feet square, on which the building rested. Tbe packs ingvserew and tbc condenser were carried away so completely that no trace of them can be found. The gin was found about 100 yards below. About eight bides of cotton, which belonged to customers, was washed away. Jacob R. McRce’s mill dam was washed aw ay. The nbu-tnents of Elder’s mill-dam, about four miles distant, on Rose creek, were carried away. The abutments of Heory M. Fulli- love’s dam, aud his workshop, * on a little stream near High Shoals, were cat tied away. THE POLITICAL REVOLUTION. The New York Journal ol Coni merce, in a recent editorial on “the political outlook,” says, among the other things: Wc believe llial a large majority ol tbe people of the United States de sire a change of parties i:i the nations al administration. The partisan dem ocrats of course are eager for it; but theit is ample evidence in our corres pondence from all sections of the country that the large class of citizens who are not attached to either party look upon such a change as essential to our national prosperty. And beyond ibis, and of still geatcr political signi ficance, not a few of the more thoughtful members of the dominant party arc the more or less expressing their content with the signs that in dicate the coining revolution. The latter class have been trying for years to effect reform within their own organization. They have seen its worst elements in control, not only of party measures, but of public af fairs. Political rewards have been given to the notoriously corrupt and incompetent for unscrupu’oos devo tion to the leaders who thus main tained their supremacy. The solid sense and s atnd judgment of the best men of tbe party have gone for naught when weighed against political device and trickery. Despairing of belter administration without the overthrow ot those who have used the republi cans lor their own selbsh gain, the men who should be at the front in this organization are teady to accept the change as the only' means ol effecting tbe desired result. “ With tbe non-partisan public the feeling is one of intense desire for a restoration of filial peace and unity between the several sections of the country, and especially between the Northern and Southern States which is essential to our pro.-perity, but which it seems impossible to obtain under the present ruling organiza tion.” Judge Reese says he woaldn’l give a pinch of snuff for all the sentimental statesmanship in the world. What was it that caused Judge Reese to re sign his jndgesbipjttstaflflr the war— an act for which Georgians have never ceased to honor him ? It is too late tor him to affect Gradgrindiatn. SUNDAY READING. In lieu of editorial, we present our readers something which they will probably value more—extracts from a sketch ot Gi orgo WhitefielJ, from the International Review: “ With no companion but his Bi ble, and no object but the salvation of sinners from the dreadful file which he believed to be impending, over them he plunged fearlessly into trackless forests, over untrodden mountains, across unfrequented seas, through! treacherous morasses, and swamps reeking with deadly miasma. Thir teen times he crossed the Atlantic Ocean, when steam navigation was unknown and the perils of the deep struck terror even into Wesley. Almost as many times liu penetrated the tremendous solitude of these ma jestic forests which then .covered even ot the easlenr portion of the Unit.d States. Twice he preached through Ireland, fourteen times he traversed Scotland, one visit he made to Hol land, one to the Bermudas, and pil grimages innumerable into almost every country in- England. * * * * He was in the habit of speaking in the compass of a single week, and that was not once or twice, but contin* uou-ly for years, generally forty, and very many weeks sixty, hours per week, and to audiences of many thous ands of people. * * * * John Wesley, during a ministry of fitly two-years, traveled over two hundred and fiity thousand miles and pr* ached over forty thous and set molts, making an average ol about eight hundred every year. Excepting Wesley, it is probable that no other man ever preached so many sermous «s Wt.itcfield. Indeed it has been said, and the statcun ut warranted by facts drawn from sources so various and trustworthy that they cannot be questioned, that “if the time spent iu travelling and some brief intervals of repose be subtracted, his wholu life may be said to have been consumed in ihe delivery of one continuous and almost uninteri opted sermon,’’ * * * * There was a general complaint that all labor was practi cally suspended at Whuefield’s ap proach. Stores were closed, shops deserted, factories abandoned, while rude mechanics and unlettered labor ers. neglected 'lie daily toil upon which the support of their family de> pended, could think of nothing but hearing seimons or of discussing those gr< at moral and psychological prob lems which lead only into a labyrinth for reasoning too intricate for even an Aristotle or a Bacon. So great was the enthusiasm aroused that people sometimes followed him on foot for sixty miles, merely 1o hear him preach. They sat aud listened un wearied until two o'clock in the morn ing, regardless of the weather, and unprotected sJve by the open heavy ens. * * * * ‘ Whitefield was fully conscious of his histrioifc powers, and cullivnud them with an assiduity which would have done credit to a disciple ol Covent Garden or Di ury Lane. It was not difficult for those who beard him often to distinguish between sermons which he preached for the first time and those w hich be bad re peated before; and both Garrick and Foote d' dared that be never reached his greatest perfection until lie had preached a sermon forty tunes. Then every sentence that was powerless had been pruned off, every gesture that did not speak to tbe eye was omittej, and the great preacher stood before his vast audiences the imper sonation of a divine power, armed with the wrath of Jehovah, or cloth ed with the geu'le meekness of the Son of man. * * * * While preaching to a congregation of'sailors in New York he compared the state of the sinner to a : hip about to be lost at sea. * How the waves arise and dash against the ship 1’ exclaimed he. ‘ The air is dark, the tempest rages! Our masts are gone, the ship is on her beam ends 1 What next ?’— * The long boat 2 Take to the long boat 1’ shouted the sailors naively, sprirg ng to their feet. ‘ Ou another occasion, while ad dressing a congregation among whom were many learned and aristocratic hearers, so powerfully did he expose the peril of the sinner by describing a blind old man, deserted by his dog, and groping along with his eane, un consciously drawing nearer and nearer to a frightful abyss v thnt, just ns he brought him to iu brink, the elegant and polished Lord Chesterfield, for getting the presence he was in, ex claimed a'mid, 4 My God, he is gone!’ Sarepta Association. The Sarcpla Baptist Association met on Friday last, the 24th, with Rehoboth church, in Elbert county. The church letters did not' indicate a flattering sta'e of prosperity among the chinches, but rather a tendency todecliue, with some few exceptions Measmea were set on foot, however, which, it is hoped, will counteract this tendency. Only one hr two , of the churches wire without representation. The pecuniary contributions to the general religious and benevolent en terprises loeti red by the denomina tion, were not as large aa the 5600 constituents of this body ought to make. The reputation for hospitality of the church and vicinity with .which the sesaon was held did not suffer by tbe manner in which the association was entertained. The Christian Index was represented by Rev. C. M. Irwin, and jibe Baptist Banner by Rev, J. M. Wood. Messenger. DRIFTWOOD. Where to go when short of money —go to work.

THE CASEIN A NUTSHELL [Washington Sunday Capital.] The Hon. Lyman Trumbull, dem ocratic candidate for Governor of Illi nois was speaking at DuQuinn, in that State, one day last u cek. In the midst of his remarks a colored man rose up and asked permission to make an inquiry. •Certainly, sir,' said Trumbull, 4 I shall be glad to give you any infor mation in my power.’ ‘Will you tell me, then,’ said the colrred man, ‘whether in your judge ment the demoornlio candidate tor president of the United States and governor of Illinois deserved to be elected in 1874 V ‘Frankly,’ replied Trumbull, ‘I do- not think they did’ ‘Then, sir.* pursued tho colored man, ‘will you tell me why i he demo crats deserve election in 1880?’ ‘A good many things,’ responded Trumbull. 'Will, you please name some of them ?’ persisted the polite sou of Ham. ‘Well, among o'her things,’- said Trumbull, ‘The democratic party in 1880 has nominated for President the man who saved the Union at Get tysburg, and tor governor of Illinois the man who wroto and reported to the senate the constitutional amend ment that made you a citizen and voter!’ Tnis colloquy forms the most vivid picture of the reversed relations of the two great parties that we have yet seen.
