Pursuant to a call from the Clarke County Candler Campaign Club, tbe citizens of this and adjoining coun ties united in ■ grand- torch-light de monstration and jollification over the triumph of democracy aud the elec tion of Hon. A. I). Candler in the 9th district. About half-past seven o'clock the crowd began to collect ou Broad street in front of the opera house and amidst the greatest enthusiasm and good humor began to prepare their va rious lights, mottoes and' transparen cies for the processiod. Immediately on 'the arrival of the North-Eastern which ’ brought a large delegation from the Gainesville Candler club, the procession began to move off. It was headed by a phaeton drawn by four handsome horses, and in it were seated Capt. W. D. O’Farrell, E. T. Brown, Esq., Messrs. W". B. Burnett and C. W. Baldwin. Just behind wete a number of carriages aud bug gies filled with the Gainesville dele gation and many citizens of Athens. Then followed the band wagon with the Pioneer baud, lead by Prof. A. J. Wurm, of Atlanta, who came down for the occasion. Every vehicle was ornamented with Chinese lanterns and appropriate transparencies an nouncing ‘•Candler’s majority, 3,000,” "Success to the oue-eyed plow boy,” etc. Then followed about fifty or six ty men on horse-back, each equestri an bearing a torch or brilliant lamp. Behind then came a long procession of pedestrians with their blaziug torches and their “hurrahs" for Can dler. The entire procession was many squares long and niunt have contain ed several thousand persons, nlmut three hundred of whom were colored. A notable feature was the long line of students, who thus evinced their in terest in Col. Candler's election. In the midst of the profession were four meubearing a horrible-looking effigy of Pete Lawslie, which was burned in front of the Commercial lintel amidst tbe shouts and hurrahs of the multi tude, Most of the residences in Athens, ail over the city were illuminated with fancy lanterns und In various and beautiful ways. The procession march ed nearly all over tbe city, nut) about ten o’clock came to a halt at the junc tion of Broad street atul College ave nue. Tiie verandahs of the Commer cial hotel were filled with the fair la dies of the city, aud out of every win dow iu adjoining houses the ladies looked to s*-e and hear Tbe hotel and houses in its viciuity were ablaze with maguifleeut illuminations and the whole affair was one of transcendent interest and maguificence. When order was observed tbe vast multitude was addressed in stirring speeches from tbe following gentle men in the order named: K. T. Brown Esq., Geo. D. Thomas, Esq., Mr. T. L. Gantt and Mr. W. B. Burnett. Capt. W. I). O'Farrell, president of the Caudler club, was then called for, who after excusing himself, read a tele gram from Hon. A. 1). Candler send ing his thanks and congratulations.

The largo gathering represented Georgia’s culture, grace and elegance. Most of the gen tlemen appeared in the regulation even ing dress. Of the ladies and their toil ettes an artist might speak in glowing terms, for there was never before seen in Georgia such a gorgeous array of fash ion. There were several imported dresses sweeping the -ball room floor, while tiie most delicate devices of the home modistes were displayed in a hun dred fascinating forms. A lady who had ts-en familiar with Anieriban soci ety in its most elegant liomes remarked that .she hud never seen, such an ar.ray of elegance In dress. At clever! o’clock supper was an nounced, and the large dining room, to the crowds which entered, presented a , BEAUTIFUL SPECTACLE. | . ,. Four tables, running the entire length of the room, were richly ornamented with various designs in flowers and con fections. On one of tile tables was a de sign wliic.ii attracted great attention It was the historic “skillet,’’ wrought iu tiie most delicate flowers bv Mr. Wack- endorf, the popular florist.’ Around llie rim was the name Alexander H. Ste phens, in heliotropes, worked in white daisies. On tiie handle were tiie figures of ids majority similarly worked! In the center of the skillet were seven yel low crysanthemuins representing fried eggs. Tiie entire design was pe: feet and reflects great credit on Mr. Wachen- dorfs skill. Some of the pyramids were very elaborate, and score* of smaller or naments made the tables rich ami tempting. Tiie designs in butter were especially tine. Among all the ornamental pieces of tlds kind none was so admired as a reproduction of the- roller chair and its distinguished occupant. Mr. Stephens sat witli liis hat on ids head, as usual, and in his hand held a miniature copy of the Constitution, which he vrns in tently perusing. These are merely a few |>oints about what was a royal spread. Tbe delicious viands were promptly served and tiie sparkling champagne flowed freely all around. There was for more than two hours the spicy table talk to improve what culi nary art had devised for the comfort of the liody. The supper itself was a trib ute better than any words to Colonel Frank Arnold, the famous caterer of the Kimball, and all oyer it were evidences ol the fine touch and the delicate taste of Mrs. Scovilte and Mi’s.

The committee reported the following which, embody the sub ject and intention of the meeting, and which was Unanimously adopted: Whereas the Hon. Allen D. Can dler, coming into our midst in early manhood, spent many of the best years of his life laboring for us in the cause of education, and, Whereas, when the storm of war burst on our land he went forth from the quiet halls of learning leadingour young men to battle, nobly staking life and fortune in our behalf, aud shedding liis blood in the actual de fense of our town. 1.

A Peripatetic Mourner. “Have you got time to do a little fig uring for me?” asked a seedy man, leaning over the liookkeeper’s desk.— "Just a little figuring.” What is itl” demanded the liook- keeper, impatiently. “Put down 22,673,” replied the seedy man humbly. "Go on,” said the bookkeeper. “Got it down already? You are quick atfigures. Now put down 7,621.” "Go ahead.” Now make another column. Put down 624." “Come,come! hurry up!" “And 2,463. Put that now under the 624.” “Well; What next?” “Commence another column with I, 436 and-add tbe whole business up.” “How’s that?” demanded the book keeper. “Add oh the separate col umns, and then add them together.” “Add ’em ail at once, It'you'd rath er,” replied the tramp with humility. VHqw much does it make?” “It makes 35,817,” replied the book keeper. ' “Could you walk that number of miles?” asked tbs seedy man. - . “I shouldn’t like to try,” rejoined the bookkeeper. “If you saw a man who had got that far to walk before he eould plant a stem on: the grave, of his poor old mother, would you pot lend him a quarter until he got back?" Tiie stony heart of the bookkeeper was not proof agaftist this appeal, and tiie mourner went away happy.— Brooklyn Eagle. ;1 The Report Of theTertfr Comm lesion Washinoton,', Nfliyfmbqr 8,-A member of tbe tariff commission said to-day: “The report of the commis sion will be a surprise to the people.

We shall.'not be able to have it ready at the. time the ways and means commit tee meets here in tiie latter' part of November, as we had hoped, but we certainly shall have it readv for sub mission to cougress by the first tMon-i d^y in December.” The commission er stated that the commission would not permit its report to be printed, bat would send it to congress in man uscript, and had determined to take all possiblp steps to prevent ft premature publication, either of the report or any accurate statements of its 'contents.
