A Visit to Homer—A Fine People—One ot the Old Land Marks—Little Business In Court—A Prohibition County— Hood Crops, etc. A STARTLING CHARGE. An Allegation that Gen Uarfleld was Slain by the Surgeons. We confess that we are beginning to get sorry for Bliss. Everyone who, like Kenneth of the Mist, has a peb- b!o hid in the folds ot his plaid, is taking aim at this forlorn disciple ot .Esoulapius, and hitting bini for that matter. They began it before the president died. Mr. Harris called him ‘old Condurango.’ A paragraph tieml, who had not the fear of an nu- top-y, wrote: “Bliss is belter tos day than any day since the shooting. He was given a porterhouse steak, of about four pounds, which he chew ed ai.d swallowed. lie also asked tor and was allowed to eat a couple of broiled mutton chops, three rolls,a halt dozen hard boiled eggs, two cups of drip coffee, a buucli of Helawai e grapes, a banana, all of which was peptonized with a glass ol Tennessee whiskey, llis pulse is 743, tempera ture, 513, respiration, 2674. He says he has been very sick but ieels better now.” He lias had much to encounter, has Bliss, and we are bappv to say that iu the midst ol all this objurgas tiou, our great Georgia Dailv, the Constitution, has had the nerve to speak up for Bliss. It has, and it protests that Bliss must not bo ar rested until ‘Guiteau is disposed of.’ This is after all as little as we can do lor Bliss at present. We might do more. We might point to the fact that the president was shot on the 2d of July, ard that on the 4th, the greyt Hr. Aguow, the oracle of sur- gw#y in the famous Uuiversity of l^eunsylvania, who has walked the / hospital, as Mr. Wellei says, from his youth up, was iu consultation with Bliss and approved all he had done. So also did Dr. Hamilton, who is in Xew York what Agnew is in Philas •lelphia, and so did all the other phys Moians who raw the president, except Dr. Boynton. Well, Boynton is a homeopathist and the others are allo paths, and they agree about like a Scotch terrier and a cat with a mat* ernal instinct. It Bliss published false bulletins, so did Bonaparte. But were they false ? Doctors are not omniscient. All ol these distinguished and honor able genilchien, the ornaments of a noble profession, signed the same bul letius,wilh the eyes of the world upon them. Not only is this true, .but they s>ned the bulletins with the con* ciousness that every medical man who knew that Garfield was wound, ed, was ready to detect, and many to expose the most trifling deviation from accuracy or ethics. Can it be believed that any of these men would willingl y mar their fortune and their lame by falsehood and misstatement? Theu if they were honest, is Bliss to be condemned because be bad not su perior wisdom to confessedly the most eminent men on the continent ? Bliss and all the others did their best. Some say they would have done better. Most men have a better hindsight than foresight. The doc- tors who arc after Bliss & Co. so 'keenly are aronsiug among the peo ple the old AnglosSaxon love of fair play, and the general sympathy for the bottom dog in tbo tight, and some of them had better think of patients of their own, who are probably sleeping at a less altitude thun that of even the bottom dog himself. An eminent New York physician makes a statement calculated to alarm the devotees of Gambrinus. ‘The man,’ ha says, ‘who habitually drinks beer is sure to have Bright’s disease. Beer in large quantities is one of the worst things a man can ruin his stomach and organs with. In Germany, where the students drink a good deal of the beer young, their kidneys and bladder are always affec ted. About the best to drink,’ Baid the doctor, *is claret wine at dinner, when it can go right into digestion. I can't. recommend anything to drink bul that. All drink is more or less an injury.* A pleasant little story is related of Gov. Holliday of Virginia by the Alexandria Gazette. One eveieglast week an old colored. woman on crutches entered a railway-car in Washington. The oar was crowded and the old woman requested a col ored man to give her his seat, ms it was impossible for’her to stand. The man refuaed. Got. Holliday, who was in the car, overheard the conver sation and promptly tendered the old woman hi* seat, which was accepted with thanks. The visit ol your traveling agent to Homer this week has been so pleasant and fruitful of good re sults tbut it will not lie surprising if he expresses himself as more charm ed than is usual when a first visit is — made to any place. The circumstan ces wire decidedly unfavorable for the tr : p. Having just risen from a sick bed where I ha d been confined two weeks I scarcely had the strength or inclination to go out among stran gers on business matters. As just re marked though, the trip itself aud the results have been so entirely agreea ble and beyond all expectation bene ficial, that I am not only glad I went but might he excused for gushing a little if it was in my line. I left on the early morning train on the Northeastern last Tuesday morn ing, and after an hours pleasant ride was landed in Harmony Grove. Here Mr. J. A. Seegar, the accommodating livery man soon had me comfortably seated in the vehicle which was to convey me to llomer. The lide was short and pleasant. I was surprised to see a mucli better country than I had anticipated. The land has a fertile look and generally the crops did not come in the category of short, of which so much complaint is made. Ou reaching Homer I found the court moving along smoothly. It can be said to the credit ot the people of Banks county that the spirit of litiga tion is not great amoug them and hence the business of tiie court usual ly consumes less than a week. They are peaceful and law abiding and hence no occasion for expensivo legal ma chinery. In this connection I may remark ou the general intelligence and high character of the people of that oouuty. I was impressed by it. It is a county shut off from the advantages that many enjoy in railroad communica tion and commercial intercourse with the rest of the World. But I am not sure but il is the better for it. The people are mostly farmers and live quietly away from the turmoil of the busier world, and yet they enjoy _the benefits of good schools, tako news papers and have many refining influ ences about them which have made an impression on their characters and gives them a standing and moral tone not surpassed by any other people I have met. Iu speaking of these peo ple I will be excused for referring specially to one,'whojetands out as a landmark among his fellows, and rep resentative of the better days of the country. He is a staunch democrat ot the old school, and is true to the teachings of the party in all then; pu rity. This inan has all the kindness of heart, dignit y of manners and de* votion to truth which characterized the old time Georgia gentleman. I refer to Mr. Euouli Audcrson, who is familiarly known to the people ot* his own and the surrounding count es. 1 spent sometime pleasantly. in his company and was most favorably im pressed. I may incnticu one good trait in his character though it is not what has caused me to speak 6f him he has been a regular reader of the Banner for sixty years. Homer is a pleasant little town and I was glad to note a spirit of improve ment there as elsewhere in the county. There are a good set of merchants do ing business there and I was kindly received by them. Especially am I indebted to my young friend, W. C. J Garrisou, who does an excel lent business. One of the best features of all that I saw to impress mu favorably with Banks county is the fact that there is no whisky sold within its limits. This I learn is mainly due to the excellent Ordinary, who took his stand on ’the side of temperance. But there are many thiogs I could say of Banks county if they would not extend this article too much. It is enough to say that l was delighted. The court house is a good one and the court was very successful up to the time I left. I am more than ever impressed with the fitness of Judge Erwiu and Solicitor General Mitehell fur their respective positition. They are faithful and eflioieut. Judge Er win is making much reputation as i faithful aud learned Judge. 1 am very thankful for the liberal reception with which the Banner met and was sub scribed for. I shall try to be with this people again next court. M. C. C. The Chicago Time-’ correspondent U-legraphs that Journal irom Wash ington, under date of Sept. 23d, as fol lows : ‘Certain revelations made to day to the Times correspondent by an unquestioned authority, of the inner history of tbo post-mortem examina tion of the body of Gen. Garfield, will create a shock throughout the coun try seer nd only to the assassiuation ot 2d. These revelations show that in July the President might have lived;ai least they show that the report of vhe au topsy is false, and that, had it not been tor Secretary MacVeagh, even a por tion of the reluctant truth placed in the report would have been suppressed. What will the public think when it learns that Gcu. Garfield did not die from any results ot the wound made by the bullet, but from a cause that probably could have been remedied in the early days of the case ? The original track of the wound had fair ly bi-aled, and the hall itself had be come completely encysted. If it had not been tor the blood poisoning, the President would have been a well man to-day. The blood poisoning pro ceeded from imported drainage of the wound the second day. A clot of blood that might have been taken out with an aspirator was the cause ot the blood poisouing and the huge abscess upon the kidney. The spine was reported as injured in the autopsy .so that this would ap|)ear to be a mortal hurt, hut it is said upon high authority that the post-mortem revealed nothing ot this kind. The spinal column was not harmed, and it there was a slight injury of the verte bra it would not in itself have been serious. After the funeral is over, Gen Swain, an educated phycilian, and Di. Boynton will reveal the inner secrets of the post mortem. One ot the most startling features of the exs posiire will be the history of the search lor the ball. One hour was passed in cutting for it. Then the bowels were removed and placed loose in a wash bowl. Another hour was spent, and then some one looked in the contents of the wash bowl and discovered the encysted ball among the intestines. Yet the autopsy locates this ball in the muscles ot the back. Gen. Swain has been so indignant over the report of the aulopsy^hat nothing will pre vent him Irom telling the true story to the public after General Garfield is buried. RAILROAD MEETING. Ou Tuesday the 4th inst., the citi zens of Madison county, met at Dan- ielsville, to discuss the expediency of building a road to Harmony - Grove or to Allien-.

Mr. Editor:—Please give me space in your columns lor some state ments and a request: Ray’s church three miles irom High Shoals, on the Athens road, has an interesting history to one that’s inter ested in progress: Many years ago, a prayer-meeting was started in the house ol Mr Ray, who lived in the neighborhood ot where the xhnrch now stauds, the congregations in creased, and a log house was built to worship in. A few years passed and a church was founded and a small frame house erected. For many years, the praises ot God were sung, and the name of Jesns exalted in that humble structure. Last year a plan was conceived to bnild a new house and a delightful one it is. Dn • ring this year, the Lord has visited them with a gracious revival of relig ion. He helps them that help them selves. The Church asks help. There ie a.debt ot something over $200 on the Church, and the brethren ask that 1 let it be known, and ask help. There are many large hearted and generous persons waiting and watch ing for some worthy obji'et on which to spend their money. Your money will do a great and lasting good spent here, and you can never spend it where it will be more appreciated. What dh you say ? Pay to me, to Rev.

JOHN I liUGUINS, ClerkS C* ocill-w4t. OCONEE PAUL That Post Mortem Report. Wasliington Special to Baltimore Pun. The most inexperienced layman need not be informed, after reading ibis last report, that when General Garfield died he was reduced to the very last stage ol mental and physi cal exhaustion. Here is at last the confession, almost in so many words, that the President was wasting away hour by hour ard day by day almost from the moment that he was shot. Yet for eleven weeks the pnople ot the Uuited States were daily inform ed that he was eating well and sleep, ing Well, that his food was assimilat ing, that he was gaining strength or that he was holding his own, that the wound was healing, and as for lau dable pus, the daily doses of it that were served out for the oouutry were astonishing, and bon mots without ... , . . „... number were ascribed to him when he tSSW&Si « was either writhing in delirium, or —* “ ’ - ** • - - lying in unconscious stupor, to show that his mind was bright and un clouded.
