Now, the Jury-box of Bibb county will be revised In August, and a great many more names will be added to the list. When this Is done there will be no trouble to get a jury. There are nine indictments against Tom, and what is to prevent the State from taking up oue of the eight on which he has never been arrainged and bringing him to trial before the new array of Jurors?*’ The rc|H>rter was not lawyer enough to answer the question, and tlie gentle man said that he could ^ . nothing in > the way of carrying out such a pro gram.

L Chief Burru* Arrive*, aad Talks on tbs Subjset—Ho Says It Will boa Good Affair-Will tho Rules bo Chansod. Ur, George J. Burras, chief of the €olumbus Fire Department arrived in the city yesterday, and spent the after noon with Chief Mason, Assistant Dorsey and other prominent firemen. ; Chief Burras comes over to invite the Athens firemen to the forty .seventh an nual parade of the Columbus fire de partment, and urge upon them to come. The parade and races occur on the 28th of this month, and he says will equal our faaious tournament of a few days since. The chief expressed his disap pointment that Columbus could not have been represented in Athens, but the railroads would not give rates low enough for them to attend, but for the Athens flt*meu to visit Columbus the ruMls will sell round trip tickets in the neighborhood of $4. This is cheap enough If our boys decide to go, Chief Burnt* met most of the officers of the department yesterday, and gave them the yules and regulations guver- ing the tournament. The .first contest Is somewhat differ ent from the races our boys are use to. it reads as folloits: At a given signal the company is to run with the reel one hundred yards to the plug, attach and lay one hundred feet of hose, disconnect aitd attach pipe aud show water. The plug is to be closed ready for fire use, ami the coupling where nozzle is attached to be screwed up three screws. This latter rale did uot meet with the approbation of firemen. They want to run fora record, and fix the plug and coupling as they choose, or in other words like they were ill our tournament. Then Columbus only gives forty pound* pressure on her plugs, while during our toiirnameut we had eighty. This % ala * against “beating the record.” Jiowever, If Chief Burrus will get his department to make these changes, one at least of our reel companies will go, and if oue starts ail three will go to gether. There will be seven or eight visiting companies there, and the races will be fine. Tho first prize is two bun dled dollars the second $75. Time to plug $40. Each company will be al lowed two Judges aud two time kcep- Tha Raportsr Donlas the Chart#. The Reporter of yesterday contains the following in regard to the recent report of the Board of Visitors: “Among other noticeable sections th* report, we find one regarding incompetency of certain members the faculty of the University. It comes the Reporter as au organ of the University, to protest against this part of the report, in asmuch as no names were given and *io personal attacks made. As to the amount of respect which certain members of the faculty command, we take great pleasure in saying that there is no member of the faculty who is not highly respected by the students under him aud respected according to his dignity liy other stu dents,” >Tc heartily congratulate the boys for thua repelling an attack on tlioir professors. If the matter were put tho test the students would be the w nesses, and in the pointed language quoted above they deny the charges made by the Board. The Faculty of the University is a pains taking, hard worked and learned body of gentle* men. $500, Reward, The former proprietor of Dr. Sage Catarrh Remedy, for years made standing, public otter in all American newspapers of $500 reward for a « catarrh that he could not cure.

CONSTITUTION ALITT OF THE SCOTT CHINESE ACT. The supreme court recently rendered au opinion iu the important case oft'hae Chang Ping appellant, vs, the collector of the port of Sau Francisco. Tbis is a suit brought to fast tba constitutionality of the Scott Chinese exclusion act. Shortly after the Scott Chinese exclus ion act went into effect, Chao Chang Ping returned to the United States from China and endeavored to secure entrance at tba port of San Francisco.llc had left this country firmed with a certificate en titling him to return, but the cert ificale- waa declared invalid by the Scott act. The collector refused him admittance and anil waa then brought In the United States court for the district of Califor nia to test the constitutionality of the Scott act, In accordance with the prov isions of which the collector acted. The CalifoRtiAoouru upheld this constitut ionality of the act, end from this decis ion the eese comes here on appeal. This court affirm* that Judgment. It bolds that Congress has the power to abrogate a treaty, and In support of that view cites the authorities of tbe courts on the subject, holding that the propriety of such action is not a matter for Judicial The Ginger Cake. Tho making of the old time ginger ike Is one of the best lost, and it is re for one made like they were before o war to be seen. The ginger cake business was considered one of the best in the country. At sales, court grounds, and ail public gatherings the ginger cake could lie found with a glass of corn beer thrown in. Those days how ever, arc ever, and now it Is a hard mat ter to hear of, much less see au old time giugercake. In the language of the poet wo say.
