co isideration and convenience.
lint tire clos ; ng of an important
csnrt a fleets a large portion of the
pe >ple ol Georgia. The strange
part of this matter is that this pro
ceeding has been so long delayed.
It has been publicly notorious that
Judge McCay has been physically
and mentally disqualified for the
performance ol judicial duties. It
is a mockery of justice and an insult
to the people that he has been per
mitted tv hold his seat until a satis-
factory deal could be made for his
successor, and it is not plain that
some ol the members of the Atlanta
ha'- are blameless in this matter.
It i* to be regretted that judge
McCay should have to give up a
position at his age, with others de
pendent upon him. It is to be more
regretted that a judge is permitted
to pass upon the lives, liberties and
properties of the people who has
lost hi* reason.
ll congress had been appealed to
at the proper time by the proper
panics, and in the proper way, this
trouble might have been avoided.
l*lims might have been arranged
lor the retirement ol Judge McCay
with pay sufficient to have met the
demands of his necessities.
If more were needed the mem
bers ot the bar who prefer him,
even in His inhecility, to another
without morals, could make up a
purse sutlicient to cover the entire
amount. The members of the Sa
vannah bar contribute to the sup
port of Judge Fleming, who re
signed his seat on account of weak
ness ol accumulated years.
There is no prospect that a man
ot judge McCay'syears can recov
er his wrecked reason. He cannot
in his condition administer law and
justice and dispatch the public
business.
In the place of worrying him and
mortify ing nis friends with writs ol
lunacy, it would be more becoming
in the ntembeis of the profession to
unde in hastening and smoothing
his way to retirement. The people
have no interest in any political
juggling that may be going on
looking to his successor.—Tele-

M. Verneuil has lately published
a letter to the editor of the Gazette
llehdomidaiae, M. Lereboullet, in
which he proposes to set on foot an
experimental inquiry into the pos
sibility of finding some method of
“attenuating” the presumed virus of
tuburcle, so as ta make inocculation
therewith practically useful against
consumption, either as a prophylat-
ic measure, like vaccination against
snnll-pox, or as a means of cure,
like l’asteur’s inocculations in hy
drophobia.
Three thousand francs have al
ready been subscribed, and the re
spectable names of Cornil, Bou
chard, (jamaschino, and Potain are
mentioned amang those who ap
prove of the investigation.
It must, however, be remembered
( 1) that with the exception of hy
drophobia, an exception still on
trial, no human disease but small
pox is known which can be prevent
ed by inoculation; (2) that of epi
zootic diseases, anthrax is only in
certain cases guarded against by
Pasteur's attenuated virus; (3) that
the dependence of consumption on
Koch's Bacillus tubercolosis is lar
trom established, (4) that its fatal
ity is very far below that of small
pox or hydrophobia, and its treat
ment far more successlu).
Consumption is the most impor
tant disease of temperate climates,
both by its prevalence, its mortality
and its incidence on young adults;
so that the sacrifice of a tew rab
bits or cats for even a remote chance
of controlling its ravages is well
justified. But the chance is, we fear,
remote.—N >ture.

CAVERNOUS GEORGIA.
A Graphic Account of Same Wonderful
Caves in South Georgia.
Uall)brld£0 cor. Augusta Evening News.
I herewith render an account of
a recent visit to Mitchell and Deca
tur counties. I arrived at Pelham,
Ga., on March 19, and was kindly
welcomed bvj. L. Hand, of whose
hospitality 1 was the recipient.
While there Mr. Hand kindly fur
nished me a horse and buggy, and I
visited Decatur county to sec one
of the world’s great wonders. I
arrived at Thomas A. Barrow's, who
was on the lookout for me, and
tfter doing justice to a good din
ner, Mr. Barrows and I struck out
for two points of interest. We first
reached the Blowing Cave, in De
catur county, Ga. It is situated in
a large plantation on a hill, sur
rounded by a broad valley, with
the exception of the east, which is a
little higher than the rim of the
cave and ten miles from Pelham.
The rim of the cave is 30 feet east
and west and 20 fret north and
south, funnel-shaped, about 12 feet
deep from surface to rim, and has
two openings or mouths, through
which it breathes. Its suction is
in the forenoon, and it blows out in
the afternoon, and the draught is
sufficient in the morning to suck in
leaves, pocket handkerchiets, or
anything of light weight. In the
afternoon it blows out with equal
strength. I placed my head to one
of its mouths and heard a noise like
the roaring of distant wind.
This cave must have immedi
ate connection with the Gulf of
Mexico, which one would reasona
bly concludge is the cause of its
respirations. The cave is the pro
perty of Thomas A. Banows, and
he says he often goes to it* mould
of hot eveniiigs in summer, and gets
a refreshing breeze, for if the wea
ther marks 95 degrees, put the
thermometer at the mouth of the
cave and it will fall to 75 degrees,
which shows it has no connect ion
with the dreaded place, and then
the breeze is purely healthy.
South of this cave about one
tnile is a beautiful waterfall, the
rim of which is about 240 feet in
circumference, funnel shaped, and
is the funnel that receives a stream
of water which approaches through
a narrow channel, at a depth of 20
feet from the surface of the land,
and pours over a rock into the fun
nel about 40 feet. The bottom of
this funnel is 25 feet across, and
there have been seen in it an alliga
tor and a rattlesnake. The water
is conveyed Irom the funnel by a
subterranean passage. The funnel
through which the water falls has
on all its sides a bcautilui growth
consisting of the fir, oak, hickory,
beech, pine, maple, dogwood, mag
nolia, and all are beautifully draped
with gray moss that waves in every
breeze. This place presents a beau
tiful sight, one which I enjoyed
hugely. Next I visited the great
lime sink, about 6 miles from Pel
ham, and belongs to L. O. Jackson,
of Bainbridge. This sink is the re
ceptacle ol a large creek, and the
bottom is about 200 feet below the
surrounding country. There is a
grist mill on its verge, and the natu
ral water power would run a vast
amount of machinery. The fall of
water into the sink is 90 feet, which
presents a grand sight as it falls.
One can easily go down into this
sink, which is the approach to a
great cavern over too feet under
ground. You have to humble one’s
self to get in by crawling about 15
feet, when you can rise to your feet
The municipal election in Cincin
nati is an over whelming victory for
the republxans. The democrats of
Houston, Tex., elected their mayor
by four votes. In Chicago, the re
publicans made a gain of six aider-
men.
The events attending the sinking
of the Oregon grow more and more
interesting. The subject remains
the general topic of conversation
among shipping men. The myste
ry ol her sinking is yet unexplain
ed. New theories are advanced. I and walk through a great cave or

The American Opera Company,
while on the road, will count nearly
three hundred persons, who will

be wanted for the scenery, seven

the troupe will set out first and
travel faster, so as to get all possi
ble rest.
As an instance of the richness of
the gold mines around Dahlonega,
an old miner says that the other day
he was ofTered $25 for his working
suit of clothes, by a gentleman who
wanted to burn the suit and pan
the ashes for the gold contained in
the suit. The offer was refused,
because he says that he can get
more than that amount for them.

which the euuc.oi > —
referred, stands seven
lar it and six against. Its friends
have been trying to make up their
minds ns to its strength upon the
floor. Few ot them are willing to
say privately that it can pass. It
is found that quite a large number
ot those who voted for the refer
ence made did so upon appeals
from the ftiends of the measure to
give it the chance of a discussion.
But as it must now, when reported,
t?ke a low place on the calendar,
and it brought forward by the
committee is certain to be sent to a
very backward place in the order
of unfinished business, its chances
are deemed very small. ■
When a negro sits down at one
of “Billy” Doyle’s tables, in a Chi
cago restaurant, he is politely hand
ed a special bill of faic, from which
the following prices are culled;
"Porterhouse steak, $3.75; pork
sausage, $3.35; picked up codfishi
$4.23; fried apples and salt pork,
$4.35; fried eggs, $225; tomato
omelet, $4.30; buckwheat cakes,
St.to; oatmeal mush, $1.25; pickled
pigs’ feet, $3.30; fried oysters, $5.30
for half a dozen; buttered toast,
$1.10; corned beef hash, $4.25, etc.
The object of this is, of course, to
drive the colored guest* trom the
restaurant, and it seldom fails.
More than one-half of the internal

“The well known Hungarian du

Mall Gazette, “has just celebrated
at the town ol Pesth, his 35th duel
by a unique banquet. Only those
were invited who could prove that
they had fought in at least six duels.
Many heroes of note were present,
some with faces covered with scars,
others minus an ear, ami others again
without an eye or with two or three
fingers missing.
Whether boycotting be a crime
or not under the law has not been
yet decided. In the California case
in the United States court, the de-
ci-i' n of which has been looked for
wiihuota little interest for some
time, the two Judges tailed to agree.
Judge Sawyer held that boycotting
was criminal if the “conspiracy sec
tion” of the revised statute* be val
id, but Judge Sabin dissented, and
the case will now go up to the su
preme court of the United States.
Co!. Wolford, the gallant Union
soldier, who, as congressman from
Kentucky, recently introduced a
bill to furnish artificial limbs to
maimed Confederate soldiers, or
commutation in money in lieu of
such limbs, is being roudly abused
by the bloody shirt oguns. Perhaps
Col. Wolford erred in introducing
the bill, but it is an error that does
credit to his’heart, if it was not very
politic. There is no probability that
the bill will become a law. Neither
will the republicans be likely to
gain many votes by howling about
ita introduction.
Franklin County’s Bridges.
The damage to the public bridges
by the freshet was not so great as
was at first supposed. Some dam
age was done to Williams bridge
across Middle river. The bridge
across Indian creek on the Homer
road was rendered impassable, but
has been repaired at a slight cost to
the county. Slight damage was
done to the bridges across Nails and
Little’s creeks on the Harmony
Grove road but they were repaired
by the road hands, without cost to
the public. The bridge actoss Nails
creek at Cromer’s Mill was broken
and part of it washed away. Me

On my return to Pelham Mr.
Hard proposed to take me to anoth
er cave within two miles ol Pelham.
This one is on a large plantation,
and is a beautiful funnel shaped
cave about 225 leet in circumfer
ence and 20 feet deep, and has two
mouths to breathe through, and it
was blowing out strong while we
were there. Like the other cave,
it sucks the air in the morning and
blows it out in the evening, and the
air is cool and pleasant, as at the
cave in Decatur. The trees of this
cave are pine and magnolia, and
make a beautiful shade.- This cave
is accessible, being only two miles
from Pelham. The mouths of both
these caves are well protected by
phosphate rock. There is also a
beautilul waterfall within two miles
of Pelham.

LABOR SAVING MACHINERY.
Its lnvsntlon a Groat Benefit to ike Work
ingmen.
Charleston News end Courier.
It is not encouraging to the
friends of the workingmen, or to
intelligent workingmen themselves,
to find the spokesman of one of the
most powerful labor organizations
in New York talking nonsense and
laying down false principles as a
rule of conduct, immediately after
the signal victory won by the
Knights of Labor in that city last
week.
Mr. Robert Blissert, who, we are
told, is one of the leaders
in the Central Labor Union
of New York, and himself a hard-
woikiwg man, asserts his belief to
be “that most of the misery of to
day is produced by overproduc
tion; in other words, that as, with
the aid of machinery, one man can
do the work of two, the second man
staives.” Finding nearly one-fifth
of New York’s workingmen ovt of
work through no fault ot their own,
and suffering in consequence, Mr.
Biissert turns upon “inventions”
and “machinery,” and declares that
to the use of machinery is attributa
ble the existence ot the evils which
the union was tormed to combat and
coirect. In order that there might
be no mistake as to his meaning,
Mr. Blissert staled that he knows
men who “have been entirely de
prived ol work by machinery,” and
cited the case of 500 box makers,
whoso tiade lias been destroyed by
an invention which enables one boy
to do as much work now as five men
could have done ten years ago.
Every new invention, it was assert
ed, “throws a few more workmen
into the streets,” and these several
heliels and opinions, Mr. Blissert
declared, are held by the men whom
he represents.
It is difficult to understand how
workingmen anywhere, and partic
ularly wuikingmen in a great matl-
utacturing city, can so easily allow
themselves to be mislead as to the
conditions of their own welfare.
The explanation probably is that
the several group of workingmen
study- causes only as they operate in
own narrow sphere, and not regard
tneir effects in ameliorating the
condition of the working class as a
whole.
The box-makers of New York,
for instance, see 500 of their num
ber deprived of employment by the
introduction of box-making ma
chines, a hence it is readily argued
that all machines are inimical to the
interests ot all workingmen. The
dissatisfied box-makers wear hats,
clothes and shoes that have been
vastly cheapened by the use of
labor-saving machines; their homes
are furnished with the products of
other such machines, but lor which
they would have to dispense with
many comforis or pay double prices
for them; food is made cheaper and
is obtainable in greater variety;
even luxuries are brought within
their reach; the purchasing power
of their wages is greatly increased
—all of which benefits and bless
ings are directly due to the use of
machines in other callings; but the
fact is forgotten, and the workman
regards only the single machine
which threatens to cheapen the
article which he makes or helps to
make.

CHAINED TO HIS BED.
The Poundkeeper of N ew&rk a Victim of Hy
drophobia.
Newark,Match 26.—George W.
Neal lies chained| to a bed in his
home No. 462 Broad street suffering
with a well developed case of
hydrophobia. Neal was one of the
keepers of the dog pound, which
was opened here last December aftei
the children had been bitten by a
dog in the Fifth ward. On Jan. 19
Neal was in the pound tying up
some dogs,when a small white Spitz
suddenly sprang at him and fastened
his teeth twice in rapid succession
in Neals wrist. Blood flowed pro
fusely,and Neal,washing the wound,
had it bandaged. Neal continued
in the discharge of his duties until
last Thursday, when he complained
o( a pain in the wounded wrist.
This increased until, Mrs Neal be
coming alarmed summoned Dr. W
A. Smith, and he prescribed some
remedies and went away. On Sat
urday Neal became much more vio
lent and Dr. Bradin was called. As
he sat watching the patient the na
ture ot the disease became apparent
to him, and then he hesitated to tell
the family of it.
Nea! rapidly grew worse.and this
morning the flrst paroxysm develop
ed. It was when Mrs Neal, at the
request of the doctor, brought in
some food and water.ot which Neal
had not pertaken since Saturday.
When she got to within 10 feet of
him. he was seized with spasms
which lasted several minutes. Dr.
Bradin administered hypodermic
injectures which,in a measure quiet
en the patient. It was when the
prexysms were at their height that
he rose from the bed and drove
every one from the room except his
wife"
Tlie poliece ambulance was cal
led, but on the arrival of the officers
he became quiet and' positively re-
fnsed to go to a hospital the officers,
however produced hand cuffs, and
with them fastened Neal securely to
the bed but, notwithstanding these
his spasms were at times so hard
that they were almost broken. The
physician in attendance has sum
moned Drt. Biggs, of New York,
O'Grogan, and Ilcrold for a consul
tatation to-morrow. Neal it about
43 years old, a blacksmith, and has
two chrilden. This roan is the sec

JEFFERSON DOTS.
Jefferson,Ga., Aprils.—Dear
Banner; The stock law is now prac
tically in operation in parts of this
county. Seedsmen report five times
the amount ot clover and grass seed
sold than ever before. Bermuda
pastures are in good demand, and
are worth much more for grazing
purposes than planted in anything.
There are many fine grade Jer
seys near Jefferson, and the farmers
are waking up to the importance
of raising tine cattle. There is one
cow in this vicinity that yields two
pounds of butter per day, and after
furnishing a family of lour persons
with all the milk and butter they
want, pays for her feed and all the
meal and flour used and feeds three
hogs, so says the owner, and that
she is worth more to him than a
good mule.
Some of the young bloods of Jef
ferson seem to have forgotten that
the war is over, and frequently make
night hideous with the discharge of
an old cannon, brought here last
summer at the time ot the reunion.
Jackson couunty .has lost heavily
in bridges, mill dams and the wash
ing away of much good soil, to say
nothing Of fertilizers lost. The tax
will be heavy to rebuild the bridges,
but our efficient Ordinary will see
to this, and some of those washed
away will doubtless be rebuilt with
fine iron bridges. It has been rain
ing almost incessantly here for the
last 24 hours, and the ground looks
like a sea of water again.
The peaches are not hurt yet, and
as the apples are still later, it is
hoped there will be a bountiful crop
of fruit.
liish potatoes are up nicely, the
oat crop is looking fine and corn is
coming up.
There are six doctors in Jefferson,
but they all laok blue, as they have
so little to do.
Prof. B. T. Hunter and his excel
lent corps of teachers are building
up a fine school, and when the new
Institute building is completed,
Jefferson will be on a boom.
We regret exceedingly that “pro-
hibitation” as a good brother calls
it, does not entirely prohibit. If
money is the r..ot of all evil, whis
key i« surely one ot its main branch
es. A few months ago there was
grapevine in Jefferson 13 years old,
but the demand now exceeds the
supply.
There is always a tush for the
Banner and it is hard to borrow.
