INTELLIGENCE
The Justice Election.
Tlte election for the 216th district,
G. M., came off last Saturday, and did
not create a ripple. For Justice Mr.
I. M. Kenney got 66 votes; lor con
stables Mr. Joseph K. Kenney got
66, and Mr. W. II, Fuller got 63.
There was no opposition. They will
all make good officers.
A Principle Involved.
One of the candidates who had a
walk-over, was seen engaged in con*
versation with Mr. David Sims.
“Dave,” said he in an earnest tone
and with an emphatic gesture; “you
must not be defeated ; you can't afford
to be defeated. If you are, there is
no telling who of us will have opposi
lion next time.”
Death of n Child.
An infant ot Dr. and Mr-. Robt r,
B. Ridley was brought to Athens and
buried Sunday. She was five months
old, and died of scarlet fever. The
remains were interred in the burying
ground of Hon. B. II. Hill, Mrs.
Ridley’s father.
Death of Dr. A. O Stanley.
Monday, Major M. Stanley receiv
ed a dispatch announcing the d,alh of
his brother, Rev. Dr. Augustin Olin
Stanley, which occurred at his home
Evansville, Indiana, on Sunday.
Dr. Stanley was rector of the Church
of the Holy Innocents, in Evansville.
He had many triends in Georgia,
where he was born aud reared and
where he spent a large part of his life.
He was a brother-in-law of Rev. Dr.
Lipscomb. He was nearly forty-eight
years of age. No particulars of his
death have been received.
The Coldest .Weather.
A good deal has been said about
this being the coldest weather ever telt
in Athens. The following note to the
Banner, from one who knows, shows
that there has been a colder time :
On Saturday, the fourth day ol
February, 1835, the thermometer at
the college, stood 10 degrees below
zero. H.
A Christmas Dinner.
Capt. Cobb Davis, chief of the
Athens police, and ono of the cleveiest
gentlemen in Georgia, gave a dinner
to the lorce during chriytmas week.
The repast was both elegant and sub
stantial, and those who had the good
fortune to be present enjoyed it high'
ly. Capt Davis is uniformly consid
erate of his men, and is deservedly
popular with them.
o A Pair of Fine Horses.
Hope Fire company has recently
received one of the finest pair of “uct.oneers $100; all others the tame
Municipal Matters.
The last meeting of the old, and the
first meeting of the new council was
held yesterday. The retiring officers
went out and the new ones were
sworn in.

Huggins, S J Mays and I M Kenney.

mayor pro tem.

Up to this date, the winter of 1880
-81 has distinguished itself by a
‘new departure,’ and, like most new
departures, it forces people to adjust
themselves to the exactions of a sud-
len change in the humbler regions ot
our solar system. No doubt, the so
lar system is as steady and as change
less as ever. The last view we had of
the sqg, though remote from this
preseut writing, be looked quite like
himself. So too ot the crescent moon
and of the familiar constellations—they
were none the worse for what most
people regard as very ungracious
weather.
Nature is always right. She makes
no mistakes. She cao make no mis
takes. And just now, amid all the
suffering which thousands experience,
she is precisely the same kind and
beneficent Providence as in the golden
days of summer's prime, or in the
beautiful season when Autumn re
wards the toil of the year. Nor is this
the mere abstraction of a belief. It is
a practical tact, always practical, and
very specially practical in these cur
rent hours. For several years past,
nature has been lenient and even
dulgent. The rod has been spared,
and many a grown-up child ha* been
spoiled. Carelessness, want of fore
thought, want ot household provi
diace, want of common sense, have
crept in upon us because of very mild
winters and thus we have abused na»
lure’s kindness.
Wood or no wood, coal or no coal,
comfort or no comfort, this recent
lesson of winter will teach us a good
many things which we needed to
learn. Want is the greatest of human
educators, and this season, want has
taken us in hand aud whipped into

horses ever brought to Athens. The
price paid for them was 8335, and
the company has been offered 8510
since they arrived, and it was refused.
They are large, dark bays, stout,
strong and shapely. They were
bought through Mr. W. S. Holman,
as last year.
The election ol lamplighter was de
ferred till a future meeting.

The editor of the Banner has had
more good luck. Mr. William Laffer*
ty, because he had no hand in sending
that turkey to us, a short time since,
determined that he would do the
handsome tbiug by himself, and so he
did. lie sent us another turkey, large
and fat, and thus won for himself the I uee " a ~ of speculation, ordinary

During the recent severe weather,
there has been such a wood famine
as was never before known in Athens

winter—streets and side-walks ex
cepted—and be happily fortified
against the ills that have punished our
lazy disregard of prudence. We may
expect, moreover, that the health of
the southern country will be better for
the frost and the snow. Outside of
epidemics, the increase ol summer
and tall diseases among us iu recent
years is well known to all observers ;
and scientific men generally think
that this is due to undeslroyed mala
ria in consequence of very mild win
ters. For the most part, severe win
ters are followed by bealtby and pro
ductive summers. It is certaiu that
men can protect themselves better
against the severity of winter than
against the intensity of summer; and
it is equally certain that very hot sum
mers are far more to be dreaded than
very cold winters.

whose noble action so richly merits
this notice. Mayor C G. Taltnadgc,
Capt. John E. Talmadge, Mr. Wm.
S. Holman, Mr. W. A. Gilleland and
Mr. Peter Weil, learning that such
extravagant prices were being asked
and received for wood instructed
their drivers, not to receive from
any one, more than the or
dinary price for wotfd under the
penalty of being immediately dis
charged from their service and per
haps otherwise punished. Mr. R. L.
Bloomfield moved by that charity and
generosity which so largely character
ize his life, learning of the scarcity of
wood among the citizens, at once be
gan cutting down the trees in the beau
tiful grove adjacent to bis residence
and furnishing wood to such as needed
it, tor a mere nominal price. The
writer learns that he himself went
into the grove and did a good portion
of the cutting and splitting of the
wood, that his neighbors and fellow
citizens might be supplied. Such
deeds as have proven these gentlemen
to be such true and noble benef ictors
not only deserve public notice, but
certainly entitles them to the com
mendation and thanks of our entire
community. Citizen.

“This troupe appeared before a large

which appreciated the entertainment
more highly than an audience has

JUDGE HOWELL COBB'S ESSAYS.
Two articles from the pen of our
townsman, Judge Howell Cobb, on
‘The Future of the Negro in the
South,’ have appeared in the ‘Chris
tian Uuion,’ of New York, undci the
dates of the 22nd and 29th, Decem
ber, 1880. The third aud concluding
number of the series will be published
this week. The first one of these es
says is mainly introductory and as
such is designed to prepare the way
for the specific view presented in the
second paper. In this paper, he argues
the lending point made in bis former
communication, viz: ‘That prima
rily the duly was imposed upon the
South to develop the latent manhood
of the negro.’ And in the progress
of the argument, he shows that the
white man of the South ‘may be trust
ed to discharge the duty ;’ and, fur
thermore, ‘that all other aid to the
negro must be through that channel.’
These positions are clearly and forci
bly argued. No words are wasted ;
and the vapory rhetoric, which is of
ten indulged on both sides of the con
troversy, is perfectly excluded. Iden
tity of interest in industrial pursuits ,
the inevitable reaction of the negro’s
condition on the white man’s condi
tion ; the mutuality of welfare in the
advancement of material civilization ;
and similar considerations are consec
utively and vigorously nrged. But the
Judge advances beyond this aspect of
of the subject. There are other and
higher grounds on which his main
proposition is based. And these
grounds are the moral principles and
religious sentiments, which are strong
enough in the South to secure a happy
issue to the intet -relations of the two
races.
So far as the Judge has proceeded
in this argument, he has exhibited
not only the logic of careful and accu
rate observation but likewise the keen
er and truer logic of sagacious insight
The tone is firm and manly. The
spirit is elevated and magnanimous.
And the country is to be congratulat
ed, that the essays, so just and sensi
ble, so temperate, so full of the states
manship that ‘looks before and alter,’
have found a place in the ‘Christian
Union.’
Tiie Meriwether Vindicator is of
the opinion that the fence question is
one of the most important that can
engage the attentiou of the people of
that vicinity. It thinks it high time
tbey were debating whether it is not
cheaper to fem e stock in than to at
tempt to fence them out. It says:
'Fences around our fields are last
going to decay, and the labor neces
sary to rebuild would be nearly suffi
cient to raise a crop of cotton. Tim
ber is needed for other purposes, aud
should not be wasted to fence in all
our old fields to shut out a few cattle.
The abolition of field fences would be
worth one crop of cotton. Let us
think over the matter.

on the radical cure (without medicine)

Involuntary Seminal Losses, mpotency, Men

Marriage, etc.; also, Consumption, Epilepsy,
and Fits, iminced by seit-indilgenoc or sexual

The cciobmted author, in his admirable Ess^y
clearly demonstrates, from thirty yearn’ sucoeS"
ful practice, thr.t the alarming consequences ot
self-abuse may be radically cused without the
dangerous um; of internal medicine or the
plication ot the knife; pointing out a mode of
cure at once simple, certain and effectual, by
means of which every sufferer, uo matter what
