Tuesday, Ocror.EK 12, 18N0. Diphtheria in Watklnsvillc. Wo rejret to learn that diphtheria is prevalent in Watkinsviilo. A little child of Judge George C. Thomas, of that place, died ol this fell disease yesterday morniug. Let us liopo that the progress of this dread destroyer may be sjieedily stopped. Ad Old Custom. Many years ago Athens bad a law forbidding the sale ol liquors in quan tities less than a quart. Whenever a man came along and bought a quart, he could not, of course, drink it all; so the bar-keeper would go to the door and blow a blast on a cow horn and the loafers all around town would batten to help the purchaser dispose ol his quart. When, bj any chaucc, a gallon was purchased, tlio l>ar- keeper would blow a ram's horn, and then the boys would say to each olh* er: “ No use to hurry now ; lie’s got a gallon.” Such wore “ the good old times.’’ Tin- Cotton Prospect. Mr. Jesse Daniel, who lives seveu miles west of Athens, informs us that tlie cotton crop in his section is going to be short. Thero is no August cot ton at ali. From the first week in June to the tourth day of August, there was not enough rain to run in the furrows. Hence, four-filths of the crop in that section is already open. This applies also to the neighboring portions of Gwinnett and Hall. Some ot the land in that region will not yield fifty pouuds more of cotton to the acre. One of Mr. Daniel’s neigh bors, who planted and worked for five bales, has gathered only two, and will not probably gel half a bale more. Mr. Daniel is one of Clarke’s most substantial farmers. lie has devoted the net proceeds of his labor since the war, to the education of his boys. Three of his sons arc now at work together, not with him, but on his place. They rise up betimes in the morning, and have not lost a day this year. Such well dii ected energy is bound to succeed.

Arthur, who was to have been hung in Jackson county Friday, was respited foi three weeks. A com mission of lunacy will be sued out. We learn that the joint discussion between Messrs. Speer and Bell, ad vertised for 13th here, has been post poned till Thursday, the 14th. We regret to learn the death of Hon. Jas. J. Turnbull, of Banks. He was one of the most prominent men of North Georgia, and had many frieuds and admirers. TAPPIXtt THE WIRES. Telegraphic News Id.a Vat Shell. The Election In Clarke. Thujeleetion passed off quietly in Clarke county, sot withstanding the heated contest that has keen earned on here. Thero was no disturbance except in the case of two darkeys who had a little fisticuff, and then each ac knowledged they had made a mis take, and they were friendly again. Carriages hurried to and fro in the city all day long, and the active poli ticians were active indeed. Very little drunkenness was seen, and al together it was as quiet an election ns could have been desired. Despite the assertions that have been so freely made, it will be seen that Clarke county lias gone for Col quitt by a large majority. This is no laoiethan was expected by the best informed men in this comity, but it will bo a surprise to persons outside. We give below the official vote of this county : That Oiitrufa-. We learn that ti c account given in Tuesday's Banner, of the attack on the daughter of Mr. Spencer, in the vicinity of Georgia Factory, was in correct in some respects. Our infor mation was derived from one of the party that brought the negro to jail, and of course we had reason to be lieve it was correct. The correct account..is this: The negro Jerry Bradbury, went into the house of Mr. Spencer, with bis face concealed by a piece of brown paper, and told the little gills that there was some money in the house and he must have it. They told him there was none there. He insisted, and they again denied it. Then one of the girls—who was about eleveu or twelve years old—called him by name. Seeing that his identity was discov ered, and probably rendered desper ate by the fear of punishment, he •truck the girl a fearful blow on the forehead and fled. He was pursued and captured, as stated Tuesday. The wound was a dreadful one. Dr. Pope, the attending physician, fears that the skull is fractured, though the swelling was so great that he could not be certain Her condition was reported to him yesterday after noon as being much improved— the swelling having decreased very much He will her again this morning, and can probably decide .with more acciwaey-fm-thie exact character of the wounds We are very much pleased to say that the negro did not attempt any thing but robbery. Our-information to the contrary was incorrect. S , Typhakl Ifc^er lu CsrnesTllle. ( This .is 1 aJaraentsblo and aiarmiug state of affairs in fcarnesville, Frank lin county.

Dr. C. H. Fowler, a promi nent minister of the northern Metho dist church claims that, in an inter view with Gen. Grant on tlie 21st ult., the general gave expression to some strange tilings. He said Han cock was a good officer uutil 1864, when receiving one vote in the con vention that nominated McClellan, he got crazy, and has ever since been working to gain the democratic and southern favor. That Sheridan was removed'from the command of Lou isiana and Texas, by President Johns son, because he had turned out of office the governor and other state officers of Louisiana who were trying to defraud the people by disposing of $7,000,000 of levee bonds for 35 or 40 cents on the dollar, when the law pro vided that they must not be sold unless they could bring 80. That Hancock succeeded Sheridan, and wanted to re-install those officers, and Gen. Graul’s peremptory orders not to do so, bronght out the fain his •'order no. 40.” All of which must be received with very large grains of allowance. In town elections in Connecticut, the republicans have made gains of 20 towns. Local issues predominated. Parnell, the Irish agitator, bad a reception at Cork, at which 50,000 were present. At Kilkenny he ad dressed 10,000. Symptoms of di-cord are showing themselves in various parts of Ireland. Prof. Riley, tho entomologist of the United Stales Government, says that with the result of this year’s work, he will have secured a tolcraby accurate knowledge of the habits of the differ ent insects affecting tlie cotton-plant, and how to control them. The Tuilleries in Paris have been badly damaged by fire. In Jacksonville, Fla., Mrs. Win Clark and three children were killed by the explosion of a gasolene stove reservoir. One fatal case of yellow-fever reported at New Orleans. A young married woman named Teets was lound dead of hunger in a garret in Scranton, Pa., with a child two days old. Both were nearly uaked. She had, several days before, cut off ber hair and sold it, while her liu-band w is carousing in saloons. Mrs. George Hamilton, in Sacra mento, shot and killed her husband. Jealousy. Samuel Ramsey, an old farmer ot Fairton, N. J., killed himself from grief at the disappearance of a way ward daughter. D. C. Bailey and Charles Eubanks died in Galveston, from morphine administered by mistake. The signal bureau has begun to forecast the piobable coming of frost, for the benefit of tlie Louisiana sugar planters. A colony of English people have been settled in Tennessee, and they call the place Rugby, in honor ot Mr. Thomas Ilnghet, the famous “Rug by” author. THE NIHILISTS. The Nihilists—tlie bete noir of the Czar of Russia—arc growing bolder. The “ Will of the People,” their or gan, has suddenly reappeared in St. Petersburg aud no one can tell whore it came from. The police and all of the authorities are puzzled at the boldness of the publication, and are astounded at its tone. It says plainly that its mission is not yet accomplish ed ; that the government has made no real progress in the direction of liber ality, aud that the so-called reforms introduced by Count Melikoff are a sham. This organ of the dissatisfied aud determiued element of the Russian people intimates that the plots and attacks against the head of the gov ernment are to be renewed. It re minds the people that a liberal policy was promised by the government if the dagger and dynamite were with drawn ; that these were withdrawn, and tlie promise ot a liberal policy was not fulfilled ; but the government is as tyrannical as ever, and conse quently those who would reform it by force, must: resume their work. This declaration' of the “ Will ot the People” indicates that tfte ri*0ffiit cessation of violence and the appear ance of peace were due, not to a more humane feeling on the part of the gov ernment, but to an armistice deter mined upon by the Nihilists to test the sincerity of tlie government’s promise of reform. This not standing the test, the reign of violence may be looked for again. The Czar is proving, as mary mou- archs have proven, that “ uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.” With all their violence, tlie Nihilists are the champions o! human liberty, and as such, they are entitled to tlie sym pathy of all free people. Their meth ods are horrible, but so is their treat ment by the government. "It some times happens that liberty "«in only be won by blood and balllei; and sometimes tho violence of il^ advo cates is equal to that of its enemies. When that is the case, let the cause and tin motive plead in extenuation of tlie wrong-doing. The cause of human liberty is advancing, the world over, and will continue to advance, de pile all opposition. about fifty bad registered.

The following is die vote for all the MARRIAGE IN MASSACHUSETTS. The Boston Traveller is calling attention to the remarkable decrease of marriages in Massachusetts during the last ten years. In 1870 the rate was one in 85.64 of the population. In 1878 it was one in G0.19. Last year the ratio of white marriages in preyoi tion to the white population of the State was one in 60.94. The noteworthy fact ia mentioned by the tlie Traveller that “ the decri ase found among the wealthy classes, where it would cot be expected to occur ” Young men also, we are told, “who spend more annually than would be required to secure domestic felicity, assign as a reason for not marrying that they can not support a family. 41 In old times the Puritans were a pro lific race, but in this respect they have greatly degenerated of late, if the testimony of physicians is to be taken in respect to the few children that are now boro among the native population, and especially in house holds where the means are ample'for maintaining large families. The re luctance to marry on the part of the young men of Massachusetts may arise from the desire so many of them entertain, and nota few gratify, to be free to migrate to Other (Hates in search of fortune, ancl consequently to have no such dog on ments as a wife and perhapschildren might be. Whether this be tlie Traveller repeats that risgo rate is .rapidly diminil Massachusetts, and ispuzzl FACTS FOR FARMERS. candidates ; Colquitt 974 Norwood 369 Renfroe 680 Speer . - 655 Barrow 1296 McDonald & 820 Barnett $08 Wright .....808 Anderson 800 The total vote was 1368 Oglethorpe Canty.

Smith received 968, and W. M. Willingham 1142. They had no opposition. According to our last census, says an exchange, there were 6,000,000 of agriculturists in the United States, and by this time, ns the new census will doubtless show, there must be at least 7,000,000, with their families. The annua! expenditure of each of these families for articles on which a “ protective” tariff is laid is esti mated from careful figures at $200. The articles for which this $200 is ex pended are wearing apparel, and household articles, iron work and forming implements, earthenware aBd all tlie multitude of tilings which go to keep a family and provide means for working the land. This is a small average, as it includes many well-to- do families. Two hundred dollars each for 7,- 000,000 families is $1,400,000,000 in the aggregate, expended upon goods whjch are “ protected ” by the tariff. The average amount ol this protec tion is, to put the figures so low that there can be- no dispute, forty per cent. That is to say, that they pay for tlie necessaries of life, excepting food, forty per cent, more than they would have to pay if there were no protective tariff, aud they were al lowed to buy in tbe cheapest market they could find. And if they could buy for $100 what they now pay $140 for, it is evident that they would save $400,000,000 every year. This vast amount, $400,000,000, is what the single class of American agriculturists pay every year for the sake of ‘ pro. tecting * certain interests. Now, compa-e ibis with what the government receives from the duties placed on imports. Last year the total receipts from customs were $137,250,047. This is a little more than one-third what a single interest --the agricultural—paid out above the normal price for the necessaries of existence and of labor. There is an enormous discrepancy here, ns every one can see; an immense expenditure of money, which teems to vanish as it passes from the hands of the farmers under the mandate of the, govern ment. • Bat all this $137,250,047 does not come from the farmers. As nearly as can be estimated not more th»n $60,- 000,000 of the excess of $400,000,000 which they pay for •* protection’’ goes to the government, and the snm whicii they see vanish from their handa to the profit of nobody is about $340,- 000,000 a year. .— I ABOUT INDIANA. The election in Indiana, says the faacon Telegraph, takes place Tu«- day, and everywhere expectation is on tiptoe to hear the result, lor it is commonly mid; that if Indiana goes for Hancock the battle is won. A few days ago, the Philadelphia Times sent an impartial, long-headed ob server to Indiana to examine into matters. We think it is the same man who was sent to Maine, and who astonished the people by declaring that the difference would Dot be a thousand votes either way, and this announcement was printed when Blaine and his friends were claiming from ten to fifteen thousand majority. In tbu Times of the 5ih this corre spondent makes his first report of In diana. He says the Republican com mittee are claiining'a majority of nine to ten thousand, but it is for effect. After a conference with tlie most in telligent sources, he says: “ They (the Republicans) are fighting not wholly without hope, but in all prob ability with the fear that the best they can do is to keep down the Democrat ic majority, and show a loss as com pared with four years ago ” Of the other side he says: “ There 1s perfect confidence on the part of the Democrats. Mr. Eng lish p aces tlie probable majority for Landers at 7,000. Senator McDon ald, who is not given to enthusiastic claims, says it can’t possibly go below 7,000 and he would not be surprised to see it reaching away to 10,000 or 12,000 The Greenback vote, he be lieves, will not exceed 10,000. Two years ago it was nearly 40,000, and this difference will divide with the largest share to the Democrats. Be fore tlie Maine election its drift was toward the Republicans, but it lias since then beeu going more notice* ably the other way. Weaver’s pres ence in the State lias about broken up the Greenbackers’ organization. The few who continue leaders in tlie move ment are so well understood to be fol lowing Weaver’s tactics to assist the Republicans that the followers are all broken up and refuse any longer to be followers. The evident co-opera tion ot the Greenbackers and Repub licans has been an advantage to the Democrats in having solidified the German vote and bringing back the Democratic Greenbackers, who de cline to bo traded ofl. It is McDon ald’s opinion that the aggregate vo'e will not be materially larger than in 1878, although tlieie will be some in crease. Estimating from the rate of | four years ago, the Democratic part ! of the increase will be greater. Con siderable account is made of the young men who vole for the first time, who take naiuraily to Hancock Whatever may be English’s unpopu larity, it is of no account. Tbe peo ple don’t slop to think of it, a d are counting for Hancock or Garfield as if they were in the canvass in Novem ber.” To the same purport is a commu nication to the Sun from a Democrat just from Iudiaua dated, at the Aslur House, 4th instant. lie says: “ I am just from Iudianapolis where I bad talks with English, Sena tor Mc Donald, Gen. Mauson, Shoemaker, (owner of the Seutinel) and with all tbe leading Democrats. There is per fect harmony aud more earnest en thusiasm than I ever before witness ed. English authorized me to say East that Indiana is safe by a good round majority ; that the Democracy of tlie State' are runuing the cam paign ou their own money, aud have a perfect organization in every town and county. Gen. Manson says “Tell the brethren North that Indi ana will go Democratic by . 15,000 majority.’’ “ Senator McDonald is a cool, far- seeing man—perhaps the best-posted man iu Indiana except English him self (whom I believe to be the best political organizer and ablest mana ger of a campaign in America,) and the Senator says the State will go IIUM OHS OF THE CAM- -PAIGN: - The Greenville (S. C.) News says: At the big democratic meeting at Wimmboro some of tlie mottoes worn by the monnte 1 men were very funny. The most striking one was the white patch worn by a negro upon <he seat ot his black pantaloons which con tained in flaring letters the words, ‘Garfield to the rear!’ MahaLi Wilson, a colored woman, and very much colored at that, rode near the head of the Oakland Club, on a while, flea-bitten horse, by the side of her husband, Marcus, and smiled most lustily for the democracy. She wore a light-colored dress, and had a red zephyr shawl spread over her shoulders. Wherever she was seen she created a furore and was greeted with shouts of laughter and applause. General Ilagood sought an introduction to her as the first colored woman he had ever seen in South Carolina who had the temerity to announce herself as a democrat. He accepted her open avowal ot the laith as the most hopeful indication of the cauvnss. An old negro man, 88 years old, rode in the procession with the Longtown Club. The negroes in the line were fine looking men, and wore the most startling combinations of gay and attractive colors, and on every side there were to be seen the crimson banners of the triumphant democracy.
