Bad Conduct.
Some boys attending a private
school in this city, have caused con
siderable trouble in the neighborhood
in which they play, by kicking their
football into yards and trampling beds
and shrubbery. They have even kick'
their ball through windows several
tiroes—so we arc informed.
The people thus annoyed say that
they have remonstrated in vain. Yes
terday a gentleman, who has suffered
their hands, took the football which
had been kicked into his yard, and
cut it to pieces. The boys cursed him.
He became angry and brought out his
pistol when the urchins ran away.
is hoped that this is the end of the
matter.
Sickness.
Sickness has invaded the Banner
office, and it has delayed the Weekly
somewhat, and cut down the local
page of the Daily. It would have
bee n worse still, if Bro. Joe Stone, of
the Chronicle, had not kindly come
to our relief. His was the only help
we could obtain, and we take this
occasion to return our thanks.
Severely Hurt.'
Mrs. Parr, who lives about two
miles from Athens, was very m merely
hurt by a fall, Thursday. We could
not learn any particulars. She is moth
er of the Messrs. Parr, of Athens, and
sister to Mrs. T. A. Adams.
A Tour or Inspection.
The president, a party of directors
and the mayor, went up the North'

inspection. They had a pleasant trip,
and returned in the afternoon.

German. *
The German given in honor of Miss
White, by Professor and Mrs. White,
the Ben Hill house, was one of the
most brilliant events of the season.
The dancing waa exceptionally good ;
the music above the average, and the
whole affair well managed. Mr. E. G-
Pottei and Miss Virginia White led,
and the figures were brilliant • and
novel.
The pleasure of the occasion was
much enhanced by the genial and cor
dial manners of the host and hostess,
both of whom have iriends without
number in Athens.
Several strangers were present and
participated; among whom we men
tion Miss Sprout, of New York, Miss
Clarkson, of Detroit, and Miss Max
well, of Augusta. Miss White herself
from Baltimore, and during her stay
Athens has attracted a crowd of
friends and ndmirers.

For the Ladles.
The readers who have not tested
the magic properties of borax have
been losing a great belp and comfort
If once used you will never be without
a bottle on your toilet table. It
moves stains and dirt from the haiid
better than soap, and at the same time
time softens and smoothes the skin. It
is splendid for washing tbe hair, and
will, without injury, cleanse brushes
anil combs in a few moments. For
washing purposes it saves soap and
labor. It will extract the dirt from
articles of delicate texture withont
rubbing, it being only necessary, to
put the ariiclea to soak with a solution
ot borax over night, and need only
rinsed in the morning. Two table
spoons full of pulverized borax dis
solved in a quart of water, to which
water enough is added to cover a pair
of blankets, will olemnse them beauti
fully. Jtalso savea great labor in
washing paint ’At' is said to drive

Mr. W. H. Gilleland, the very effi

with a sudden illness, of a paialytic
nature, Friday morning, while at work
in his office. His illness was at first
considered quite serious, but it has
yielded somewhat to treatment, and
yesterday he was reported much bet

friends, we hope he will soon be out
again. Ho is a numlier one officer,

Automatic sad Asthmatic
A grand, doable-back action what-
d’ye-call-it, accompanied by a decid
edly asthmatic what-iu-name (mis
called a musical instrument) was on
exhibition, on Broad street yesterday.
It raked in the dimes and nickels of
the small boys.
Does It Pay?
A few days since, Col. S. C. Dobbs
put two two-line advertisements in the
Daily Banner, stating that he had
Tennessee pork sausage for sale.
About noon ot the day the advertise
ment appeared, a business man got a
message from his wife, who had read
the advertisements in her up-town
home, to “get some of those sausages.’’
He went straightway, and got to the
store just in time to hear Col. D.-'bbs
say to his book-keeper: “Order three
more barrels of those Tennessee pork
sausages.” He had sold ontby noon.
Facts are facts. If you want to reach

Noble Liberality.
Ill connection with the recent death
of Rev. Cobb W. Key, in Augusta,
we cannot for bear mentioning some
thing not generally known, which
does honor to the noble heart that
prompted it. It js this. For some
years a wealthy gentleman in Georgia
has been in the habit of sending Mr.
Key five hundred dollars a yeaT. This
he did in recognition of the fact that
Mr. Key had worn out his life in the
service of God.
As far as he could, the liberal donor
has kept this matter private, and wo
respect the delicacy of feeling which
prompted his modesty, too much to
give his name. We publish this much
because it does men good to know
that there are men in ear state whose
purse-stiings are under the control of
their hearts.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Well Done, Oconee County J
Tbe presentments of the grand jury
of Ocobee county, which were read
Friday afternoon, were remarkable in
some respects. They stamp the jury
as a body of men eminently fit to dis
charge the high trust reposed in it,
and they show a very high degree of
intelligence and virtue in the county
which these men represent. It affords
the Banner great pleasure to put on
record the good work which these
men did, and to commend to other
counties the example which Oconee
has so strongly set before them. A
grand jury is a body of great influence,
well as of great responsibility, and
this particular jury fully appreciated
the one and discharged tbe other.
AS TO FINANCES.
There is probably not a county in
Georgia that can make just such a fi
nancial showing as Oconee. In 1875
was set apart as a new county, and
had all tbe expenses of beginning
anew. It had to erect county build
ings except the courthouse—and
that had lobe refurnished and remod
eled to 6ome extent. These and other
expenditures had to be made, and yet
the county is entirely out ofdelt, and
has $3000 in the treasury. We doubt
as good a showing can he made by
any other county.
They have a county court, and the
Judge thereof is Richard M. Jackson.
Since the July term of tbe superior
oourt, Judge Jackson has made his
court not only pay its expenses, in
cluding bis salary, but it has actually
pul money! into the treasury. The
county court is a money-making in
stitution.
POLITICAL.
The grand jury took every strong
grounds In favor of the parity of the
ballot-box. It advised everybody to
read the recent article of Judge John
L. Hopkins, on the subject; and also
recommended the passage of a law to
make it a penal ofiense for any man to
work for another in an election, or to
induce another to work for him, for
any compensation whatever. The
present law, it will be remembered, is
against hiring any one to vote. The
grand jury goes farther, and recom
mends a law to prevent hiring any one
to work for an election. This is a step
in advance of any position that we
have yet known to be taken; and yet,
at this present writing, without hav
ing time to give the matter thorough
consideration, we heartiiy endorse it.
The evil of illegal voting is one ot gi
gantic proportions, and it isnoi worth
while to stop at half-way measures in
the work of providing a remedy.
FBOHIBITION.
The grand jury then proceeded to
do just what might have been ex
pected of a body of men that had pre
viously done such good work. They
asked for the enactment of a law to
prohibit the sale of intoxicating liq
uors in any quantity, anywhere in the
county. In this they performed s duty
that they owed to their fellow-citizens,
bnt it is a doty so seldom discharged,
that they are entitled to high praise.
This was a good climax to their
work. The financial condition of their
oonnty and people—be it ever so good
—could not fail to become still better
by tbe prevalence of general absti
nence from intoxicating liquors. The
purity of the ballot-box can never be
attained so long as whisky is in the
reach of any man who will pay his
money for it. Whisky does more to
debauch suffrage, than all other causes
combined; and therefore this grand
jury made true logical progress, when,
after calling for a pure ballot, they
recommended tbe abolition ot whisky.
They thereby recognize a fact which
patent to every sane man—that
whisky is a deadly enemy to a pore
ballot.
From onrgpedal Correspondent.
Washington, D. C. Jan. 25. ’81.
I regret that a great many engage
ments incident to life in the Capitol
prevented me from sending my let
ter last week to the readers of the
Banner. I take it, however, that
tbe good people who read your
sprightly paper did not miss my
epistle, and are therefore content. It
occurs to me that the assembled wis
dom of the nation are not doing a
great deal at this; time. True they
have passed the Post-office appropria
tion bill since I last wrote you, and
some other important measures, but
when I reflect that this is the last
session ot the 46th Congress, there is
too ninch time wasted in partisan
struggling in the Congressional arena,
which might Ire devoted to business
legislation. About the worst and
most unpleasant spectacle which can _ e i t h e r by iraposin
be witnessed during the session of
the House is
FILIBUSTERING.
Where the word came from I don’t
know. There is an impression on my
mind that a filibuster is a man who
went with Walker to Nicarauga years
ago. I reach for the dictionary. It
seems to be derived from tbe Span
ish filibustero, and that from 'flibote,’ a
sort of small, fast sailing vessel said
to have bceu so i.amed from the river
Vly in Holland- also a lawless mili
tary adventurer, especially in guest ot
plunder- It is here that my Nica-
raugan reminiscence came in. There
are sailing in Congressional waters
quite a number of these “small fast
sailing vessels.” They do not carry a
great weight of tonnage, nor any par
ticular breadth of canvass, but they
are very conspicuous nevertheless are
piratical in their practices. The ac
tual filibus tering on the floor of the
House is by interposing a'l sorts of
dilatory motions to prevent action ol
the House.
l or instance, the other day Mr.
Conger, of Michigan, who is a flibote
of the most approved model, moved
that there be a call of the House.
The Speaker ruled that there waa a
quorum in the House, and Mr. Con
ger appealed from the decision, and
then somebody moved to lay the ap
peal on the table. Mr. Conger kept
his side of the House from voting,
which prevented a quorum, and there-
lore locked the wheels of Govern
ment, so to speak, for a little while.
Conger is the fiercest ‘fllibusterer"
extant. Democrats and Republicans
are ecstatic at the thought that h
ttao iated to the Senate, which re-
mm s him permanently out of tee
House. In the frigid atmosphere of
that austere body Mr. Conger will lie
about as comfortable as a skinned
cat at the North pole. Filibustering
is never secu in such beautiful perfec
tion as in the nigbt session. There was
a night session of the House last week,
all brought about needlessly by an
obstinate, pigheaded member. The
private calendar was being consid
ered at night. Every thing in it was
supposed to be a matter of course,
and very few attended, when one gen
tleman made a point which dragged
members out of their beds at all
hours of the night, and brought old
men and sick men to the House be
tween 2 and 8 o’clock in the morn
ing. Members are usually very cross
in the uight session, bat this time they
were all in a good humor. Mr. Speer
was the only member of the Georgia
delegation who was present at this
night session, and he didn’t get there
till 12 o’clock. Tbe others didn’t
come at all.
A LEVER AT THE PRESIDENT’S.
day before yesterday, and as usual it
was defeated, and ought to have
been. The best constitutional au
thorities hold that Congress has noth
ing to do with a contested electoral
vote, and this would seem to be the
soundest Democratic doctrine. The
President of the Senate has no judicial
’powers, nor does the Constitution
give to the House the right to settle
a question of this sort. The doctrine
of State rights solves the whole ques
tion. If tbe authorities of the State
have no power to determine what is
or is not the electoral ticket for the
State, then Congress should not de
termine it. This is the argument of
so distinguished a Democrat as Mr.
Merrimon, of North Carolina. The
States generally have not provided
for a contested electoral vote, bnt I
think that the best way out of the
difficulty is for every State to pro
vide a tribunal to settle this question
this jurisdic
tion on the Supreme Court, or by
constituting a tribunal for the es
pecial purpose, and when tho State
has decided, let the two Houses
count the result, as is intended by
the Constitution. It may be said
that sometimes there are two State
Governments. This is revolution,
and it is impossible to provide by
law for the exigency of revolution.
Of the Georgia members, Messrs.
Stephens, Felton and Speer resisted
the consideration of this electoral
resolution. The other members
voted for tho consideration. There
is nothing involved in it, because
Garfield’s election is not disputed,
and the resolution on its face provides
that either House can repe>tl it, and
as the next House is Republican, it
would be unquestionably repealed, and
I think it is tar better to utilize the
rest of the session in passing tbe im
portant bills affecting the material
nterests of the people, which are now
ripe for tbe action of the House.
ELECTION CASES.
The House during the past week
has turned out Mr. Hull, and seated
Mr. Bisbee. This was done by the
unanimous vote of the Honse. It
will be remembered down in the 9th,
that Mr. Speer was assailed in the
last canvass becau-e he announced
himself tor Bisbee. Dr. Luring, of
Massachusetts, was seated more
firmly in the seat which a genteei
blatherskite, of the name of Boynton,
has been contesting, and the Honse
has now under consideration the case
of Yeates against Martin, from North
Carolina. Mr, Speer is managing
the case of Yeates for the tm jority of
the committee Yeates is the Demo
crat, and is entitled to bis s.-at. On
yesterday, Mr. Speer opened the dis
cussion in a two hour’s sp, och. The
case will be considered to-mor
row and Yeates no doubt -rated.
FIVE HUNDRED CARP
have been furnished to Ad'ens, by
the Fish Commissioner, and it is to he
hoped that they will be th progeni
tors of multitudes of those fine fi9h,
which can live anywhere, and are
said to be among fish, wha: tbe useful
pig is among domestic animals.
JOE BROWN’S BEAVER COAT.
The telegraphic columns of all the
leading papers throughout the coun
try have been enlivened by a descrip
tion of an alleged dress coat, with
which the gentleman from Gaddis-
town ia said to have astonished the
natives in Washington. The tale,
not of the coat, but about tbe coat,
made out ot the whole cloth. Sena
tor Brown has bought no beaver
cloth coat. Senator Hill had no con
ference rith him on the subject
They have been to no dining togeth
er, and the whole story is the creation
of some inventive journalist, who
looked on our junior Senator, as a
suitable plant tor an invention of this
sort. Ot course Senator Brown cares
nothing about a canard of this sort,
and I only mention ‘it to show juBt
wbat reliance is to be placed in the
average Washington correspondent.
But of course the restriction is not
applicable to L. C.

I attended one of tbe President’s
levees last week. It was a very bril
liant affair. Tbe conservatories were
thrown open, and the hues and fra
grance of tropical plants were bewil
dering in their loveliness and sweet
ness. The toilets of tbe ladies were
ernehing. All sorts of people attend
the-e levees, and the contrasts con 1
stitute an amusing and striking feat-
are. The Marine Band is always
there. I don’t.know what had got
into the Marine Band that night.
They played all of tho Sunday school
hymns that I had been bearing at
home, away down in dear old Geor
gia—“I want to be an Angel,'
“Sweet bye and bye,” “Safe in tbe
arms of Jesus,”—all beautiful, and
think new to most of the guests. It
is true that under the lead of the
magnificent generalissimo of the
band, they put in a great many
rial tons to the simple and familiar
tunes,.bnt they were easily distin
guishable. The usual repertoire
furnishes a very different selection,
As I was leaving the White House,
my attention was attracted by the
Russian Minister and a lady with him,
They were a handsome pair, and
magnificently dressed. They were
in the vestibule of the Presidential
mansion, and had donned their fur
wrapuings, which gave them a very
national and foreign look. The lady
threw herself graoetully into a cushion
ed chair, and said something to her
lord—what it was I don’t know, for
my familiarity with the lingo used
was nottechntical in its accuracy. The
noble made an imperious sign to
richly clad footman, who stepped
forward and began the duty of remov
ing the lady's slippers and encasing
hot prety feet in shoes more suitable
to the cold atmosphere outside; and
yet, does not tbe poet and the nov
elist exhaust his powers in describing
the hopeless wretchedness of the ser
vant population ot Russia!

University, who, being duly sworn, depose and
say, that to the beat of their knowledge and be
lief, the above statement is just and true, that of
the entire indebtedness to said Bank tbe sum of
one thousand dollais will likely give rise to litiga
tion, that the sum of fifteen hundred dollars,
though most likely to be paid, is not wholly free
from doubt, that tne sum of four hundred dollars,
now in judgment is not likely to be paid; that
they believe the remaining indebtedness to be
good; and that the said Bank, to the best of
affiants* knowledge and belief, baa not violated nor
evaded any obligation imposed by law, either by

Dr. C. J. Moffett—Dear Sir—
Enclosed you will find 50 cents.
Please send me another package of
Teetbina. The first package had such
a happy result that I heartily recom
mend it to all mothers, as being ail
that a mother needs for a teething
babe. My babe was one of these little
nervous creatures—never sleeping
more than fifteen or twenty minutes
at & time. After giving the powder
it quieted his nerves, and now he
bleeps long naps. Please send as soon
as possible, and oblige.

will recover. It is best, however, to
commence the use of the Stock Feed
a little ahead of the cholera season,
which will prevent them from taking
the disease.
