Dear Banner For the past two weeks a protracted meeting has been in progress at the Methodist church in Watkinsville. Though the preach ers have preached and labored zeal ously, and the membership seemed to be very much revived and earnest in their work, yet the meeting so far as man can see has been a failure. Up to this writing no one has joined the eburch, and but two have asked the church to pray tor them. The cause of this seeuiiug indifference is a prob lem which we are unable to solve, -sonic attribute it to one cause and some to another; but be the cause what it may, sinners have not been converted. Rt v. H. J. Ellis pastor has been assisted by Revs. J C John son, T O Rorie, L \V Downs and N Wortham. Dr. Landrum also preach ed here on Friday. The meeting will close Sunday night and I tear to the eternal doom of some. NEW BAPTIST CHURCH. The lumber for the new Baptist church has been sawed and is row ready to|be delivered,and doubtless in a abort time there will be erected in Watkins- ville a neat and comfoatabe house of worship. ILLEGAL VOTING. This morning the county court of this county convened for the purpose of trying the illegal voters, but in view ot the fact that James A Garfield, president of the United States, whom we had learned to love and to honor, had recently died from the effects ot the assassin’s bullet, and that Presi dent Arthur had called uimn the na tion to set apart to-day as a day of mourning and humiliation, the conrt took a recess until Wednesday the 5lb of October next. Some very in teresting and appropriate remarks were made by the local attorneys and also by Messrs. Andrew J Cobb and L W Thomas, of Athens, after which the court and the attorneys went to the church where religions services suitable to the occasion were conduct ed by Rev. John C. Johnson. Oconee.

Athens Again Iu Souraing. At noon Monday, the stores iu town were closed, and the fronts were again in mourning. A flag hung at halt mast over Cohen’s store; an immense flag at Bloomfield A Stanford's was draped in black; aud in various parts of the city smaller flags were similarly displayed. A constant tolling was kept un by the bells of the different churches, and a sabbath-like solemnity pervaded tho city. SCHOOL EXHIBITION. Thursday was a gala day iu Win- terville. Prof. Coile held his exami nation in the morning, and though not present, we learo that his scholars all acquitted themselves with credit. Iu the afternoon the school-boys played a game of ball with a picked nine from our base ball club, and det tested them by a score of 12 to 8. The exhibition at night attracted a large crowd. Early in the evenimj visitors began to arrive anti by 7 o’clock, the church, which had been selected for the performance, was fi led to oveifloWing. The music for the occasion was furnished by Mrs. Zillah Hutcheson and Mr. G. T. Murrell and was beautiful as well as appropriate. Several prizes were offered for the best declaimers iu the different classes and Rev, A. W. Williams, Mr. F. II. Kroner and Mrs. D. A. Anthony were selected as judges. The pro gramme was skillully arranged and very interesting. “The way to Jiio. Smith’s,” and “The Train To morrow,’’ after raising a perfect uproar oflaugh- ter would be followed by such pieces as “Hayus on the South,” and “Webster ou the Union,” and thus from gay to grave and vice versa, the audience were both pleased aud inter ested duriug the whole pcrlbrmance. Where so many did well, it would be unjust for us to discriminate. It is enough to say that the acting aud speaking, both alike, reflected credit upon the scholars themselves, as well as upon their competent and efficient instructors, Mr. W. M. Code and his sister Miss Mary. The exercises closed at 11 o’clock,' and the judges, after retiring forx few minutes brought in their report and through Rev. A. W. Williams deliv ered the prizes. Mr. Jas. S. Eberhart received the prize among the larger boys, and Master B as com W. Murrah among the small. Ot the girls, Miss Lizzie Winter received one of the prizes, and Miss Leila Winter, one ot the youugest girls iu school, the other. Mr. Frederick Allison was given the prize for scholarship, and Master W. Chessly Baruett the one for deport ment duriug the year. Just belore the amlieucu was dis missed, Mr. Thos. Hutcheson cam* forward aud in a few appropriate re marks in bekalt ot the school, presented Mr. Coile with a handsome gold pen and staff. Mr. Williams also presented Miss Mary Coile with a beautiful pair of vases, given by her scholars. Both presents were cieved unexpectedly, and after return ing their thanks to the children for these tokens of affection and also to tho audience for the perfect order observed during the evening Mr. C. closed the exercises. We trust it will not be the last of its kind in our village. Not only do such exhibitions excite a spirit of lau dable ambition among the scholars but they tend to draw teacher and pupils nearer to each other, and the efforts made to excel on this minia ture stage will - strengthen and pre pare them for higher, and nobler achievements. . after a prayer of thanksgiving for the blessings of the past year and the ro- turn of another anniversary, a lecture was delivered. In this lecture Rev. Mr. Levy spoke of the new year, of the pleasant memories it recalled and the hopes it inspired (or the future. He could look forward in imagination to the next anniversary that should come and ( see the temple rebuilt and himself officiating before its sacred altars. His references to this occasion were very pleasing. In speaking of President Garfield, whose death was mourned the world over, he paid a glowing tribute to his life and character and exalted his memory in the hearts of the people. 'Kadesh’ is a sacred word among the Jews, and is only used by those who have near and dear relations dead. It is a beautiful custom among them when that a son who has lost a father, a brother, a sister or other similar bereavement occurs, the surviving relative on the day of the death aud on each suc ceeding anniversary pronounces the word ‘Kadesh,’ which means a wish tor the rest of the departed soul. Iu alluding lo the dead President Mr. Levy used the word ‘Kadesh’ which expressed as much as auylhing could the deep feelings ot the Jewish people in legard to this sad event. The ser vice was of a most interesting charac ter. We will have something to say of other services iu Monday’s paper. real facts in regard to the shooting. His name is Solomon Dooly, a noto riously bad rascal, who is wanted in this city to setve out a sentence of the mayor’s court, he having made his escape while working on the streets. It seems that he went to Centre from here and was employed by a young man named John Mathews to work in the field. Mathews is a small, puny man, who Las consumption. On the day ot the ahootiug the negro got mad with him and began to abuse him, and when Mathews said some thing to him, he threw a rock striking the former on the arm, whereupon he raised his gun and let fly with a load of bird shot. The shot did not stagger him, aud he ran after Mathews and would have* kilted him bat for the presence of auother man who stopped him. These facts explain why Dooly keeps hid out ami did not ccme up and have his wounds dressed properly. The city is glad to be rid of him but if he comes here again he will be taken in tow. The L. C.

Colemau at Young’s old stand was opened this morning for the first time, and their stock displayed to tlie inspection of the public. These gentlemen need no introduction iu Albena. Mr. Gray’s well known busi ness tact, polite manners and fair deal ing will induce all his old customers to call and see him, and lie will be well pleased to serve them. Mr. Cole man has long conducted a store on Prince Avenue, aud has made many friends. The stock ot this new store, while uicely displayed and very hand some is not complete yet, and new goods will continue to arrive con stantly until the house is full to over flowing. In a short time an auction business will be started. We cannot tell all they have in stock, but Mr. -Gray himself will do this through the Banner’s columns in one of bis old style and inimitable advertisements, which used to be so attractive. Watch out for it and call at the store. who take elm ae of the matter should be piompt aud push it at once while the people are senstive to the noble generosity of the good man wbo has come to their aid. If the matter is al lowed to die out of the minds of those able to do something, it may be very diffioult,perhaps impossible, to secure the requisite amount. We believe properly directed effort now will ac- comolish the desired end. We have no special scheme to sug gest for raising the money. The wis. eat friends of the institution should confer together aud settle upon some plau. It seems to us that the quickest, simplest and most promising scheme would be to appoint a committee ol popular, active and judicious persons, sav of three men and three alumnss of the Institute to call on every person able to give anythiug and see what can be done. It might be well to first call for voluntary contributions and after these were exhausted, let the commit! ee go out. Either plan or any other wiil do which proceeds at once and is at all p'ausible. We hope entertainments will not be tiied yet awhile. These have been very fine heretofore and have accom plished some good results, but if peo ple are disposed to aid in the matter they will give more than fifty cents or a quarter, and if uot they will hardly attend the coucerts merely to contri bute to the fund. These can be given after awhile however, after the other efforts have been made. We trust there will be no delay. Athens owes it to herself and her fu ture prosperity to raise this $4,000 proraDily. She owes it to Miss Nel lie Stoval, whose noble and unselfish effort has made it possible to secure enough for ihiB purpose. She owes it to the Mr. Seney whose offer is most liberal, and ahould not return to him unappreciated. bouse. These will cost in the neigh, borhood of 810,000 and we predict they will pay handsomely from the first. Such improvements as these are worth a great deal to the city as well as the owners themselves, and tend to encourage others to do like wise. We should be glad to record numerous other such material ims proveraents. A Candidate for the Chainsang. A geutlemau from Oconee county was in Athens to-day inquiring if there had been any stealing about the city recently for which the thief was wanted. He stated that a negro who goes by the name ol Abe McClendon with the aliases, Abe Gluts aud Abe Jackson, bad been staying around bis neghboriiood for several days, driving a fine horse and buggy, dressed in good clothes and boasting of having plenty of money. He had several ten and twenty dollar gold pieces, be sides a quantity ot greenbacks and silver. The gentleman is satisfied he stole these things, but had not heard of any body losing them. The greatest mystery is the horse and buggy, as no loss of this kind has been reported in this section. The suit worn by the negro when he saw him was of nice blue flannel, and it may be the suit Mr. T. P. Oliver lost. It is possible the theft was committed iu some other part of the state or even outside. Abe should be watched. A STRANGE COINCIDENCE. The poor old negro paeaclier was more Shan half right when he aaid: “Bredderin, if we could all into our own hearts as God does, it would mos’ skeer us to death.’’ A company c tiled the Land Mort gage Investment and Agency Compa ny of America has been organized in England, with an authoriud capital of $5,000,000, for the purpose of in vesting in land in the United States and Canada. The company was formed at the in stance of Austin Cnr- bin. President of the Long Island Railroad Company, and a part of its purpose is the development of unim proved landB on Long Island. The plans for the improvement of the is land have not been completed, but contemplate the building of summer resorts on both shores of the island and the improvement of the interior for farming purposes.

A youngster, a mere lad, who had contrived to earn money enough to start to college, while journeying afoot to tho seat of learning, lost his pocket- book—an old leather one and all its contents—$10. A five dulUr bill wns iu his trousers pocket. The boy said ‘he was looting it up the road, aud as the day was hot be took off his coat and carried it on his arm, taking good care to feel every moment or two for the pocket-book, for the hard earned $15 was to pay bis entrance fee to the college. After a while he got to thinking over what college life would be like, and forgot all about the pocket-book fo<* some time, and when he looked again-found it was gone. He went back mournfully along the road hunting on both sides for the pocket-book. After a while be came to a house where a young man was leaning over a gate, and who asked him when be came up what he was hunting for.’ The lad ex plained his loss, and described the property, when the young man handed it over. The boy who lost the pocket- book was James A. Garfield. The young man who found it was named Bli-s. And thus the futuru President of the United States met the man who was to have such a tragic expe rience with biin. Perhaps if Bliss bad not found the money, Garfield might never have been President, and the Doctor might never have signed bul letins that nsd Garfield for the hero, surrounded by a professional and affec donate mendacity that has not had its match in the tide of rimes. ‘ ■ New York, September 24.—Dr. Hamilton to-day in conversation, dic tated ths following : ‘The ball entered the inter-vertebral space in the right side, between the last dorsal and the first lumbar vertebra, at a point very near the fan-verse and oblique pro cesses ; that is obliquely from behind. It passed a little downward and for ward, penetrating the body ot the first lumbar vetebra, escaped from the vertebra very near the middle in front, and was found a little to the left of the body of the vertebra, lying un der the lower margin of the pancreas and nearer its posterior or aspect than interior, behind the peritoneum, and therefore outside the cavity ot the belly. The ball was encysted, com pletely surrounded by a firm capsule, which invested it entirely and closely, the capsule containing nothing bat the ball. Perhaps a grain or two of white tenacious substance attached to one point of its inner surface which was not easily removed by the edge of the knife, and which may be found under the miscroscope to consist of a drop of tlessiccated pus,or it may prove to be the leaden stain occasioned by the oxidation of the surface of the ball. It also contained a small fragment of black material, perhaps three-quarters of an inch in length and an eighth of an inch in breadth, which under the miscroscope may prove to be a piece of cloth, but the exact character of which has not vet been determined. ‘Perhaps distant one or two inches, and in this neighborhood there could be felt distinctly under the finger in numerable small substances, like grains of sand, of greater or less mag nitude, which have not yet been sub mitted to microscopical examination, but which were supposed to be min ute fragments of bone torn away from the broken vertebra and thus widely disseminated in the adjacent tissues. The blood sac was behind the perito neum but the autopsy revealed that it had ruptured into the cavity ot the peitoneum, probably just before the occurrence ot death, and at least a pint of blood coagulated was found in the peritonei cavity. The abscess spok en of in the official report of the au.. topsy was not in this region precisely, but somewhat more to the right, be tween the liver and transverse colon. No connection was discovered be tween this and the external wound made by the bullet, aud there are no means of knowing whether it commu nicated with the original track at smne earlier period in the history of the ease or not. It may have done so, and become subsequently closed, or it may have been the result of the exten sion of inflammation from the original track to the adjacent tissues. There was no lesion of the liver, recent or ancient, indicated in the autopsy. “It is evident from this account that tlie presence of the ball iu the in the situation in which it was found was not the immediate cause of death, as it wns completely encysted, and must have long since ceased to cause irritation. The small fragments ot bone and tlie great lesion of the lum bar veretbra are the pathological facts which alone could endanger the pa tient’s life. This lesion of the verte bra the surgeons had no means of repairing, nor could it have been re paired save by the process of nature. The small fragments of bone, if they ■boold prove to be such, widely dis seminating in the adjacent tissues, certainly could not have been removed by any surgical operation. It was determined by the autopsy that the necessity did not exist for removing the ball, or, in other words, that had there been no other lesion it might have been carried for mauy years without causing death or even incon. venience. Still, it may be proper to inquire whether by a surgical op eration the bullet could have been sately removed. If it had been ar rested by the spine, or even lodged in the substance of the spinal column, possibly with a bold aud very exten sive dissection it might have been sately reached and extracted. It is questionable, however, whether the history of surgery furnishes any example of success under the circum stances now supppsed. But the tact is that the bullet traversed the spine and lodged at a point some distance removed from it. Passing miraculous ly through various vital structures which surround the canterior and lateral walls of the vertebra:. The tront ot the spine in the region tra versed and both of its sides present ing toward the interior of the belly are literally covered by important blood-vessels, arterieea and veins, the most important nerves of the body, including trie sympathetic or gaug- aonic system of nerves, also the nerves of common sensation and motion, and by sympathy including the great tho racic duct through which nutrition from the alimentary canal is conveyed to the heart. The injury of almost any of the foregoing, excepting the nerves ot common sensation apd mos tion, would inevitably destroy life, and in the midst of this plexus ot arteries, veins and lymphatics the surgeon would have had to carry his knife in search o£a ball, the situation of which has only been revealed by the autop sy. There were no possible means of knowing the situation of the ball du ring lile, as it gavo no indications ot its presence; nor could it possibly have been teitclied and recognized by any torm of surgical probe. That death would have been immediate, and the inevitable result of any such daring adventuro is.alinost absolutely certain. However much we, individ ually or collectively, may have' made ourselves liable to just criticism in the matter of diagnosis or prognosis, and whatever doubts may be euter- mined by medical men as to the pro priety of the treatment in certain res pects, I cannot believe that one intel ligent surgeon will hereafter think that at any period in the progress of the case the ball or the fragments of the bone which it sent before it could h.ive been successfully removed. Nor, indeed, that any serious attempt in the direction would not have resulted in speedy death. Viewing the ca-e in the light of our present knowledge, 1 am prepared to affirm that surgery lias no resources by which the fatal result could have been averted. This was the sad consolation whioh I felt justified in giving to the griet-strickeu wife and family, and which all my associates believe we can give to an afflicted people’ HOW GUITEAU RECEIVED THE NEWS.

Warden Crocker visited Guiteau in his cell this morning, slid gives . tho following account of tho interview: ‘When I entered the cell, after the usual morning gi eel ing Guiteau’- first question to me was, ‘how is the Pres ident V’ I replied that I did not know. I answered thus to fiod out if he bad gained any knowledge of the Presi dent’s death. Guiteau replied, ‘You ought to know. Have you read thu morning papers ?’ I said that I had, but could not roly on the various statements in the papers. He then said he had felt very anxious about the President tor the post few days, and he feared he was nearing his end. I then informed him, watching his expression carefuily, that the Presi dent was dead. He instautly sank on his bed and appeared very much agi tated. After remaining in this posi tion for a few moments, he arose and paced the floor, muttering something to himself as il praying. He then in> quired at what time he died, and after being informed, said that he was glad the President had at last been relieved from his sufferings, as he would not have committed the deed' if he had known he was to suffer as he did. Guiteau did not appear so nervous and alarmed as I supposed he would when the nows was broken to him, and I do not think he knew the Pres ident was dead until I so iuformed him. At least he said he did not. lie does not manife-t auy increased fear this morning, but be has been in com stant dread all along that he would be dealt with by a mob, and earnestly prays we will protect him.’ A Favored ‘Local.’ Macon Telegraph.
