Forty Mon at ths Jail, but no vfolone* Commuted. 7<AWRKXCKVILLfc,May 3.—The Herald records an attempt to lynch the negrn who wounded Mr. I,ce Hamilton some time since. The number of the mob is reported to have been In? tween forty and fifty .They left their horses in the woods beyond Judge 1 i tit fli ins * and came up to town, but finding that their visit was anticip ated, ami they could not get him out of the iron cage in which he is confined without destroyiugtlie jail, they wisely concluded to leave him to flic care of the sheriff, anil allow the law to take Its course. Our jail is a very secure one, ami is protected by combination locks and iron cells that will lie very diltlciilt to enter. A prisoner is not only secure, but it would take a uiob hours to release a prisoner, without pretty well distroy- iug the prison,ami if properly guarded, a prisoner cannot Tie'fakeiffront It.

At Williamson tlie party left the A. A F. aud went to Columbus over the Midland. They will visit next the Grif fin, Rome aud Carrolltou. The ol^ei't of tlie trip is to examine iudc|H*udcnt Georgia lines, with a view to their consolidation, tlie construction of connecting link* and making a new and direct Hue to the sea. Savannah is Hie objective poiut. The idea is not one of simulation, but of investment. It is the purpose to extend the Chatta nooga,Rome aud Columbus to Atlanta; take tlie Atlanta and Florida and build into Macon, and then go to Savannah over tlie old proposed route of 8avan- nali, Dublin ami Western. Columbus will lie readied via tlie Georgia Mid land, tapping other points with the Macon and Covington. The scheme embraces the Savannah, Ainerirus aud Montgomery,by which,it is proposed, to obtain a connection witii the main line somewhere near Ablieville. The men have the money to back them, and say all they want is the sym pathy and co-operation of the people of the state. Salt Bhoum.

And Will Not Havs Another Veto Whisky—High Llcenss Has Puri fied the Liquors and Satis fied the People. Atlanta, 31ay 8.—It seems to be tiled fact tiiat the prohibitionist* w make no tight tills fall. The people of Atlanta seem to Is* again united and the great tirade against tlie liquor traffic ha* censed There is a reason for this. A reform 11 going on in tlie whisky trade, and person* who have been violently op- >o*cd to tlie sale on account of the ipurious and adulterated article placed on the market are liccoming pacified, now that pure whiskies and nines taking the place* of the meaner stuff. Dr. Talmadge said in a recent scr oti that the great injury caused by tlie liquor trattle was the spurious and Inlteratcd liquors that were sold to the public, lie said further,that if the only pure liquor* sold that the present w ar on the traffic would not Is* made. His idea wa* that if only pure liquor* were sold the injury would be comparatively little. Dr. Ta linage’s words have been veri fied in Atlanta, ’e w ant to stop the sale of poison,” be cry of those who were once op- |M>*ed to tlie wholesale and retail sale of liquor In Fulton county. Ho a prohibition election tills fall is declared off. WANTED HIS DAUGHTER. An Old Negro From tho Freo State In Soaren of His Gal. eporter of the Banner-Watch man was standing or. the street yester day wishing for something to turn up and trying to quiz the chief of police out of an item. “Can I tie dat gal?” w’as heard from an old negro who was follow ing a young girl about 16 years old up the street. “Yes, said the chief of police, if she under age, you can not only tie her, hilt you can give her a whipping with a hickory.** The reporter seeing a chance for a nsation chimed in and told the old negro to catch her and If necessary he won hi assist ill roping her. The old mau, who Is from near Paoli, in the Free State, started in pursuit of “de gal,” with the reporter close on his heels to see the fun. “Come hack here gal, and go hack home to see your oie imidder, who Is mad about yon walking round des* roads ob A thefts, and a doin’ ob no good.” Tlie gal objected to returning to the old homestead, aud tried to out-talk the old man, hut he wasn’t to be fooled, aud gratified her by the wrist and led her down the street, and carried her hack to Madison county, where lie will make her pay for her transgression by hoeing cotton. After he got to his wagon he put a rope around her arm* and lifted her in the wagon and drove off with this re mark : “Gal I’ll let you know who Is your parents.” It Is proposed to introduce a bill be fore the next legislature to secure the necessary authority to sell the Univer sity grounds in the city, and locate It oik at Rock College. The buildings on the Campus would be remodelled, and converted Into busi ness houses and offices. The Campus would be cut up, and sold off In lots. College avenue Would be extended im mediately through the Campus, and the rear lota£would front on this avenue. It Is estimated that the property, as it stands, would sell for some $250,000. One hundred thousand dollars of this would be used in erecting the necessa ry buildings at Rock college; the bal ance could be put out at interest to yield a permanent revenue for tlie Unlver- 4ty. Tlie plan lias not yet fully matured, but there are many reasons why it is feasible. In the first place, owing to the growth of the city, and tho In creased demand for building site* for business houses, tlie Campus, occupy ing a* it doe* an extensive area in tlie very heart of the city, Is of very great value. It is believed that capitalist* in the city would boy it for something like the figure named. With that money in haul, modern buildings could be erec ted on the University f*nn at Rock College, leaving a very large surplus to lie used as an endowment. The Rock College 1* only one and a half miles from the city, and is beauti fully located.. Out there the student* would he some what removed from what temptations they find in a city, which III Athens, however, are not worth mentioning. They could, however, be brought under discipline very much better tliau ns at present, a* they are now so much scat tered. It is not proposed to have blit two large dormitories, hut a minibe small cottages scattered over ground* at convenient and pleasant dis tances. Were tlie University located at the Rock College, it would have all the benefits to be derived from proximity to a city, aud none of the evils. Ill add! tlon, it would have a very large sum of money to invest and draw ti|>on, viz. the difference between the amount nec essary to put up building* at Rock Col lege, and the sum for w hich tlie Cam pus and buildings would sell, which we put at $150,000.
