We had {hoped that Mr. Wm. B.
Toombs would be appointed Judge of
the county court of Wilkes. He is the
son of Gabriel Toombs, and is a lawyer
of strength and ability. He was warmly
backed in his application to Got. Gor
don, and the delegation which west 'up
to Atlanta in his behalf was a very flat
tering one. Mr. W.M.Sims also had a
strong support. Mr. J. 8. Barnett, the
appointee, will make a splendid officer;
no doubt of that.

The reports about the treatment of
convicts in the ramp of Hod. James M
Smith were miserable fabrications. No
one who knew Mr. Smith believed them,
and those who did not know him were
yet convinced that such a thing as the
shooting down of convicts on the field
for refusing to work on Sunday, bore a
strong stamp of improbility on its sinister
face.
It is a matter of great .regret that a
man like Mr. Smith should be subjected
to such mortification. His camp, which
is situated several miles off the railroad,
is made the base, of cruel reports and his
housu becomes in a day the rendezvous
of State authorities and newspaper men.
At last accounts, Hon. James M. Smith
as stall in a good humor. He can well
be. A man who has 2,000 bales of cot
ton in sight can afford to bury a convict
under every corn-stalk and lose a thou
sand dollars worth of machinery under a
rickety shed. Cotton is King, and Col.
Smith is in his loyal retinue.

times to welcome rigid investigation, and
to allow authorities and correspondents
alike the run of his c*mp, but to have
such sieges precipitated by reports
which make him a demon and butcher
alike, sought for by prison-keepers and
surrounded by the curious, is a gross
outrage. We present this morning the

HONORS TO A WOMAN.
The rare festivities along St. James and
Piccadilly on Tuesday wera inch aa per
haps the world has never seen before
Royalty in England certainly never had
such a demonstration and no crown head
of ancient or modern times has more
canto to be felicitated upon the good
will of their subjects.
Tho birthday of the Emperor William
of Germany and the anniversary of Vic
toria’s coronation have developed ovations
at the hands of the people such as this
century probably will not see again. It
may be questioned whether even in Ger
many, with her military bulwark and
her prince-ruled people, monarchy has
not suffered at the hands of the growth
of republican sentiment. In England,
where a limited monarchy and democrat
ic forms largely prevail, the throne is
becoming a mere figure lu the govern
ment of the kingdom. The descent of
the crown is even regulated by
law, and Victoria reigns, not by Divine
right, but by act of Parliament Her min
isters are changed by the vote of the
peoples’ representatives, and although
the throne is considered the fountain of
power, much the greater element of this
power now lodges where of right it ought
to be, in the people themselves. But
Englishmen have honored themselves in
honoring Queen Victoria. Much of the
enthusiasm from Buckingham to West
minster was to the woman rather than
to the sovereign. She rode to her cor
onation fifty years ago a mere girl.
Throughout her reign the people have
made wonderful strides in art, sciences
and material wealth, as well as personal
liberty. Her private life baa been crown
ed with all the virtues and beauties ef,
womanhood. A wife, mother and widow,
the people have seen all their joys and
griefs embodied in her own, and the
guardian of Windsor or of Balmoral has
lived in the very hearts of her subjects.
It has been fortunate for monarchy that
England has been ruled by a noble, gen
tle woman during the last half centnry.
I It will he fortunate for Albert if he pre
serves the respect which his mother has
won. If he ever reaches his throne or
maintains it, he will havo his mother to
thank, in more ways than one.
ENTERPRISING JOURNALS.
Sunday morning last the Bakxeb-
Watchmah printed a program of tho
University exercises, commencing with
the achednle of the class tree celebration,
July 9th. The order for the following
weak was sketched, with a list of th*
speakers in every class.
Onr friend of the Savannah Newa aiez-
ed the item from the Bassxs-Watchxak,
and not noticing the initial date of July
9th, worked up in Monday’s paper a half
column report of Commencement in Ath
ens, under the impression that onr pro
gram referred to the present week. The
graphic dispatch evolved from his infor
mation, bore date of Athens,and commen
ced in decorona but decided past tense as
follows:
Sunday morning the University com
mencement sermon was preached by
Rev. Dr. Ford, Presbyterian minister,
from LaGrange. This morning the ad
dress before the literary societies was
delivered by Hon. P. W. Moldrim, after
which the meeting of honorary members
was held in the society halls. In the
noon the sophomores declaimed.
The news was general and guarded.
Texts were not given nor subjects set
out No honorable mention of aspiring
so; omor*s glistened in the friendly type
and *ven the effort of their distinguished
townsman, Peter Mcldrin was suffered to
go by without compromising comment
or compliment It must havo amused
Mr. Meldria as ho rode to his office in tho
Abercon street car to read of this con
servative but positive allusion to Us ora
tory in Athena tha day before. The
Newa baa achieved in ahort,the wonder
ful feat of reporting a commencement
three weeks in advance.
It was the second day before the Au
gusta Chronicle caught on to the sensa
tion, and that paper not to be outdone
hy the Savannah Naira, declared in an
Athens “special'’ that “commencement is
now in full blast.’’
We advanced a theory yesterday
morning to which wo still cling, that tho
calendar had taken a leap of three weeks
in tie lower country, and that the alma*
nao had probably eloped with the ther
mometer.

usurped by the drouth.

USURY ON LAND LOANS.
Important Decision bjjuilst pCiuory Speer
ApUiut the Mortgage Company—Its Pro-
tmhle KfTeet Upon Similar Case*.
Macon, Ga., June 25.—In the United
States circuit court, to-day, in the case of
J. K. O. Sherwood against Rebecca
Rountree, Judge Speer rendered a decis
ion in his charge to the jury which is
regarded by leading member! of the bar
as one of the most far-reaching and im
portant in its consequences which has
been made in this circuit for rears. The
pendency of an immense number of suits
against land owners in Georgia in which
the principal decided is applicable, gives
it this importance.
The testimony in the case was that the
agents of the money-lenders deducted
twenty-five per cent by way of commis
sions, and counsel In argument stated that
in all, the borrower had paid, forty-three
per cent, interest. This, of course, under
the Georgia law, woold be usurious^ and
the n*ury would render void any deed or
mortgage made to secure such a debt,pro-
vided that the true lender of the money
had notice of the usury.
It was in evidence that Sherwood,
through the Corbin Banking Company,
of New Tork, had made many of these
loans, and Judge Speer charged the jury
that if from the nature of the transaction;
the great number of the loans of this
character made where tho deeds and
mortgages were executed to the plaintiff
in this case; the continuous nature of
the transactions and importance of tho
amounts involved, it was reasonable to
be inferred that a man of ordinary pru
dence in his business transactions would
onderstand and know it, in the absence
of proof to the contrary, and that pre
sumption not rebutted by proof would
charge him with all the consequences of
the usurious contract of his agents; and
that if this be true, the plaintiff can only
recover the legal rate of interest
The most wide-spread effect of the de
cision will be that such usury would ren
der void the deeds and mortgages execut
cd to these usurious loans.

REMINISCENCES BY AN “OLD PU
PIL.”
tlcelle—The Bead Behind PajfnE Off.
Capt A. R. Bradeen was in the city
yesterday and n B.-W. reporter sought
him out to learn the truth of tho report
that the work was about to be stopped
on the road on artiount of the contractors
failing to get their money. Capt. Bra
deen says it is true that they have not
been paid off in two months, bat he
does not think there is any intention on
the part of the contractors to stop work,
for they havoeonfidenoe in tha solvency
of the road, and believe they will get
every dollar due them. Cot Frohel'
promised to settle off in foil on the i
ond cf July, and it is believed that he
will be able to do so. The trouble
to he that the road only gets the money
on its bonds when the iron is laid and
the train runs over's section often miles.
There hss been trouble with one contrac
tor at Monticello who has been behind
with his work, and therefore stopped the
train at that point Thus the bonds of
the company have been temporarily lock
ed up and they have not been able to
get a dollar on the grading between Mon
ticello and Madison. This trouble is
now remedied. Capt Bradeen tells us
the cars are running three or four miles
this side of Monticello, and another ten
mile section will soon be in operation
which will give the road considerably
over one hundred thousand dollars in
cash—more than sufficient to pay off ev
ery dollar it owes up to this time. Bradeen
& Hampton will have all of thair work
done beyond Madison except some light
grading through the townjin eightdsys. Mr
Powell has a little rocky cut to blast out,
that! a squad of his convicts can complete
in tivo weeks. This will get the road
ready for the iron the entire distance be
tween Monticello and Madison, and it
will be put down as rapidly as possible.
There is not only enough iron now in
Macon to equip the road to Mediaon, but
it is being received at tho rate of 12 ear
loads a day. Mr. Powell has not moved
his convicts as yet this side of Madison,
as we were informed. He had selected a
place and begun to build his camp, when
Col. Smith wrote him not to proceed nny
further until they had been paid off. Col.
Smith says that he is anxious to have the
road built to Athens, but he cannot let
his convicts he worked longer without
money. We learn that he went to Ma
con this week to see Col. Frohel about
the matter,and we have no donht but that
it has all been satisfactorily arranged.
This road will certainly come to Ath
ens; our people need not have the slight
est fear on that score. The delay is oc
casioned by the trouble we have explain
ed above. It is confidently expected
that early iu next month all claims against
the company will be settled, and hun
dreds of hands will be moving dirt be
tween the Georgia road and Athena.
While these delays an annoying, we
trust that they will soon he over and we
will not have any more to report

A SENSATION IN ELBEBTOlt.
A good deal has been said recent
ly about the organisation of a bank
at Elberton. The moving spirit was
a manfrom up North somewhere,
who cAJIed himself J. S. Panford.
He was to furnish half the capital, if
it was necessary, and was a very
modest fellow, not desiring any of
fice or positon of trust or profit in
the concern. A building for the
banking house had been secured, a
vault built and a f l,2O0snfe bought
The organization was to have been
perfected on Tuesday morning last.
Mr. Danford had taken a trip to
North Carolina and returned the
evening before the bank was to be
organized. A stranger had arrived
in town in advance of the banker.
He walked around, listened and said
nothing. On the arrival of the bank
er it turned out that they were old
acquaintances. Next morning the
banker carried the stranger around
and introduced him to some of the
leading citizens ot Elberton, and
explained that they had some mon
ey transactions to look after at Craw-
lord; the organization of the bank
was postponed till another day, and
the two men drove out of Elberton,
in the direction of Crawford. That
evening the stranger returned alone,
and explained that the banker had
boarded a train in South Carolina
and gone hence to return no more.
J. S. Danford is a professional swin
dler, and organizing banks seem to
be his special fort. The stranger
was from Dadeville, Ala., where
Danford had organized a bank and
fleeced the citizens of four or five
hundred dollars. The business of
the Alabamian was to recover the
money, which he did in certificates
of deposit, which may or inay not
be good. They left Elberton because
it was necessary to use the wires
in making arrangements with the
man from Alabama, which, if done
in Eiberton | would have given the
swindler away.
The citizens ot Elberton and vi
cinity are able to furnish capital for
the bank, and we presume the funds
will be raised and the bankorganiz-
in due time.

the old ones.
The next year Mrs.Lipscomb came
to us straight from Washington
city and the little breeze she brought
with her did a world ot good. Miss
Piuline Pierce came to us that year,
too, and a better teacher never

primary department under her ef
ficient charge began to improve im
mediately, and the pupils who left
her hands were well prepared tor
work in the higher departments;
but, while I am speaking of
the new-comers, it behoves me to
mention another, who, in an bumble
way, played quite as important part
This was “Old Dot.” I have read
of“jewels of gold, and jewels of sil
ver,” but Dot was certainlyHhe jew
el of a darkey. She is possessed of
all the traits which the negro is
supposed to he lacking—truth,fidel
ity and honeaty—in short, with a
soul! It was her picture that Mr.
Seney had painted not long since.
He was much struck with
the old woman when on hi* visit last
spring. It certainly showed his good
taste, for a more' picturesque old
soul t.oes not live on this mundane
sphere. (Ob, those good buttered
biscuits she used to give ut at recess
in days gone by!) Mr. Seney in-
structed his artist to paint “Old Dot”
just as she appeared in the dining
room of the ll C. I., with her kitch
en apron on, and her frizzy hair
screwed up in a little knot on top of
her head. This the artist proceeded
to do. with a great deal of skill, too.
and Mr. Seney may well be proud
of his picture. It is one of the most
natural and life-like pictures I have
ever,seen and is the embodiment of a
class of people that will soon be ex
tinct—the old Southern family ser
vant. I have made quite a digres
sion in favor of “Dot,” but I feel
justified in so doing when I remem
her those battered biscuits! Then
too, there has been several unkinc
things said about that same picture,
and I thought it only right to let the
people know the true state ot the
case.
It was during this same year( 1881)
that Mr. Seney made his liberal do
nation towards building the chapel.
Before this,commencement had been
held in Bowling Alley, which was
nat a suitable place at alL Every
thing about the place took on anew
air of prosperity; hammer and chisel
were busy at work, and by the first
part of the next year the chapel
was completed and we had an en
tertainment therein, and proud! I
rather think we were! The chapel
looked so new and shiny that
a great many repairs were made
about the main buildings in order
that the discrepancy might not
be plainly visible. From being a
bare dwelling place, devoid of all
but tbsolute necessities, the Institute
now assumes the most cheerful and
well furnished air possible, and no
girl, however luxurious her own
home might be, could leel at s loss
in this pleasant and attractive house.
The last year of my stay there was
the most pleasant of them fall, not
because it was the last; though.
There were so many nice girls then
(our boarders numbered 50) and we
used to have such grand times on
Friday nights. Those who have
never tried it can lorm no idea of
the exact amount of fun 50 school
girls can have, when freed Irom all
restriction* and turned loose in a
large hall, away from the rest of the
civilised world, Friday night was
distinctly ours, to do as we chose,
and so long as we kept within the
bounds of propriety we were never
molested. Miss Millie never had a
printed list of rules and regulations,
as most large boarding schools have,
but made her rules as occasion re
quired, and they were so full of com
mon sense that they were generally
obeyed without a demurer. We all
knew that so long as we did right
we would have no rules, and with
this ever before us we lived very
happy and contented lives. Much
to my sorrow and regret, I left there
in 1SS4 and have been floating
around the big world ever since.
Occasionally I g» back to pay a visit
and T note with pleasure and pride
the ever increasing prosperity of
the school. This is an institution of
which every Georgian, and every
Athenian in particular, should be
S raud. At present it is closely al-
ed with the University, and the
two move along in perfect harmony.
Long may this be the case and far
distant the day when the people of
Athens fail in their duty to either!
This is an earnest wish from

Col. Edward B. Hook, Atlanta cor
respondent of the Augusts Cnronide, is
one of the most efficient and indefatigable
news-gatherers in tho sate if you turn
wares. The patients h«™ ( hi , m *f‘ id , t T ct ., ,n '? morUr ’ bnt
, * | when be is detailed to do duty in the ru-
pains about the chest and sides,
and sometimes in the back.
They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth has a bad taste, especi
ally in the morning. A sort
of sticky slime collects about
the teeth. The appetite is poor.
There is a feeling like a heavy
load on the stomach; sometimes
a faint, all-gone sensation at
the pit of the stomach which
food does not satisfy. The
eyqa are suuken, the hands
an<^ feet become cold and feel
daipmy. After a while a
cough sets in, at first dry, but
afttir a few months it is at
tended with a greenish colored
expectoration. The patient
feels tired all the while, and
sleep does not seem to afford
any rest After a time he be
comes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forebod
ings. There in a giddiness, a
sort of whirling sensation in
the head wlien rising up sud
denly. The bowels become
costive; the skin is dry and
hot at times; the blood ijocomes
thick nntl stagnant; the whites
of the eyes become tinged with
yellow; the kiduey secretions
becomes scanty and high col
ored, dejiositing a sediment
afier standing. There is fre-
qnently a spitting up of the
food, sometimes with a sour
taste ami sometimes with a
sweetish taste; til’s is fre
quently Attended with palpi
tation of the heart and Asth
matic symptoms; the vision be
comes impaired, with spots be
fore the eyes; there is a feel
ing of great prostration and
weakness. All of these symp
toms are in turn present. It
is thought that nearly one-half
of our population has this dis
ease in some of its varied farms.
Shaker Extract of liuota (Wei
gel’s Syrup) changes the fer
ments of the Digestive organs so
as to convert the food we oat into
a form that will give nourish
ment to the feeble body, and
good health is the consequence.
The effect of this remedy is
simply marvelous. Millions
upon millious of bottlea have
been sold in this country, and
the testimonials in favor of its
curative powers are over
whelming. Hundreds of so-
called diseases under various
names are the result of indi
gestion, and when this one
trouble is removed the other
diseases vanish, for they are
but symptoms of the real
malady.
Testimonials from thousands
of people speaking highly of
its curative properties prove
this beyond a doubt. Sold by

ml districts, he is as much out of his
sphere as a New York belle would be at
a Georgia corn-shucking.
During the recent trouble at CoL
Smith's camp, Hook was sent cut from
Atlanta to report the facts for both the
Constitution and the Chronicle, and with
this doublt load of responsibility aud
honor, he looked and felt like a journal-
istic Atlas, who had every printing press
in the world strapped across his shoul
ders.
The investigation had commenced when
Hook reached the convict camp. As he
stopped Irom the buggy, he was arrayed
in patent leather gaiters, or immaciuato
white tie and a fawn-colored suit of
clothes. Col. Smith met the distinguish,
ed young news-gatherer, and introducing
him to Capt Johnson, chief of the guards,
told that officer to see that Mr. Hook had
his every want supplied.
“Did I understand that yon are Cap
tain Johnson?” inquired Mr. Hook.
“What is the name of your base ball
dub?”
“The Penitentiary Nine-ty,” smilingly
replied the Captain.
Hook draw forth his note book and
jotted down the information.
“I wish that you would now show me
to my room, as I want to make my toilet
before appearing in company,” requested
Mr. Hook. He was escorted to the tabiu
where tb* guard slept It was furnished
with a tin wash basin, a comb with three
teeth, a brush that did service both to
smooth the hair and blacken gooes, and
a piece of broken looking glass stuck into
a crack in the wall.
The expression of dismay eddisgust that
o'erspread Hook’s handsome face as he
looked upon his surroundings will 1 aunt
me to my dying day. He contented
with smoothing his hair with his tingbr
nails, lik* a mermaid, took a dry wash on
the corner of a white silk handkerchief,
and hove a deep sigh of relief ts he
passed from the door of the hospitable
but crudely furnished room.
This was Mr. Hook's first visit to a
convict camp, and hence all was new
and interesting to him. He kept his
note book out all the time, and when
his letters are published they will doubt
less throw a great deal of new light on
the penitentiary ayttem.
Mr. Hook insisted on leaving for Ath
ens that night; said he had a dispatch to
send off, and intended to do his duty
tboagh the heavens fell. He started
off, but after going a few hun
dred yards returned and decided
to wait over until morning. It
afterwards transpired that Col. Smith’s
little black bull had started out on a ser
enading expedition, and Hook mistook
the bellowings of that animal for the
growling of a bear, and decided that he
had rather get left on a news item than
furnish a supper for some ferocious wild
beast, that he firmly believed inhabited
these wilds.
It was 11 o’clock when the investiga
tion was over, and repairing to the hus-
pitable home of Col.- Smith our parly
sat down to an old-fashioned countiy
supper. Mr. Hook was evidently dis-
comforted by not finding a napkin at his
plate, but noticing that each guest used
his handkerchief, decided that when he
was in Rome he must do is Rome does
and followed suit
“Waiter,” he called, “please bring me
the bill-of-fare.”
“Dar ain’t no rich men fcere „ s Pj]|
Farr, dat I knows of,” replied the moke.
CoL Smith informed his distinguished
guest that the printer had not sent in the
list that day, but he would sec that he
had one before breakfast.
“Just help himself to that plate of cold
snap beans before you, and ir you don’t
see what you wanted to ask for it.” re-
marited. th* hospitable host
Hook whispered to a friend at his el
bow that he didn’t bke this thing of be
ing helped from the same plate as other
people; that it was too much like eating
scraps; but his appetite was in fine trim
and he did fall justice to the supper af
ter all.
The next morning Col. Smith had his
phaeton hitched np to take Mr. Hook s
drive over his farm. They first visited
the engine house, where the Colonel ex
plained that a 100-horse power engine
propelled all the machinery.
“I see the engine here,” replied Mr.
Hook, “but where are the 100 horses?”
CoL Smith looked tired, bnt said noth-
in*.
He was next shown the cotton seed
oil mill.
“Ah,” remarked Hook, taking out his
note book, “this is indeed an interesting
visit I have lately been reading a great
deal about finding oil in Georgia, and am
glad to be given an opportunity to write
up the matter from my personal observa
tion. Where is your well, and how many
gallons a day dots it flow'?”
Col. Smith replied that the well was in
his cotton field, and it had. not flowed
any since the last crop was made up.
Hook took down all this information.
“Now, CoL Smith,” he continued, “you
spoke just now about your mill over
there—is it there that you grind your
cotton?”
The Colonel remarked that he groan.’,
his cotton in that other house.
Hook was delighted with his ride over
the crops, but he made a fow little mis
takes, such as taking a fluid of cotton for
a young orange grove, a corn-patch for
watermelon trees, aud a big pile of straw
for a country church. Mr. Hook no
ticed a fence covered with old guano

“Ah,” he replied, “I see, CoL Smith
the trne secret of your success <n farm
ing. You are doing what I hav.-
been advising the farmers of Georgia tu
undertake for years—that is to nisc
everyth.ng on the larrn, and not semi
motley off to buy what we can grow at
home. 1 see there that yon have p'ant
ed a crop of cotton bagging, and it see in
to be growing nicely, too. Do you raise
your own cotton ties? I’leaso stop the
baton while I make a note of those
agging plants.''
Bnt Hook was most impressed, with
the cow-pen. He insisted on having
pointed out to him the cow that gave the
sweet milk, the butter milk and clabber.
“What kind of milk does that ferocious-
looking cow that is bellowing so fright
folly and pawing up the ground yield?”
asked Hook.
CoL Smith explained that was one of
his butt-er “costs.”
“And the thin, no-horn animal is an
oleomargarine cow, I should judge!” sug
gested Hook, and bo looked wise with
agricultural knowledge.
“Yea." replied CoL Smith, “bnt it
don’t pay to raise oleomargarine cattle,
for the legislature is making as big a
fuss over it as about my convicts.”
“What are the negroes doing squatting
down under the cows and palling at
them.”
“They are milking,” replied the Col-
“Why, I thought you milked a cow
by catching her by the tail and pump
ing ont the fluid. At least that is what
tbe driver told me last night,” replied
the innocent abroad.
Thia ended Mr. Hook’s first visit to a
farm, and his letteis to the Augusta
Chronicle will be eagerly looked for by
CoL Smith and the people in that sec
tion of Oglethorpe. We will reprodi
them in the Bans Kit-Watchman as ‘
appear. • -
