W« tender thanks to His Hcn-r, the Judge, for the courtesies shown our body and think our circuit is fortunate in-having such an abl ', impartial and fearless Judge on the bench We also tender thanks to onr efficient Solicitor General for attentions shown u», and think the StSte’a business could not be in better hands, and respeo* fully ask his re-election by our Legislature. We recommend tbe publication of *hese presentment; in the Dailv and Weekly Banner and;Dsily and Weekly e«teri counties, having pupils from this coun ty, making a total of 61 teachers paid out of tbe public fund. The names of said teachers, number cf pupils, at tending each schooldays in attendance, amount paid to each, with receipt theref or will be found on the Commis sioner’s record book, herewith submit ted, from prge 118 t«» 120 inclusive.

Teachers in your county labor under many disadvantages. The school bouses are very inferior, many of them pncomfortable and almost ox quite destitute i f school forniture and selioofsui plies. No wonder that so many of them become discouraged and dissatisfied. That they their at tention to ether busiuess at the first op portunity is not surprising. We bay© no inducement to offer efficient; teach ers to come into our county. Money is needed to briDg about desirable results in the matter of education in your county, better salaries for teachers, a liquate pay for school officials. In this connection I call attention to the fact that members cf tbe Board of Edu cation are p lid notbirg. This should not be. Without lLtendfng to reflect on the present Board of Education of this county, I will venture to say that the best service is not obtainable “with out m< nev, and without prio\” By an act of tbe Legislature approved S pi. 16,1891, to the entire text of which your attention is most respectfully called. Provisions is made for the sup port of common schools and for other purposes. Conformity to the provisions of thi« act is one way out of e mbarrass- mert fir want of educational funds. We ha 1 with pleasure the day if tbe Teacher’s Institutes which has dawned u{K-n us this year. It is by far the most helpful moro that has ever been made in the cause of education in the State of Georgia. Rspa-tfully, H. R. Bernard, C. S.C.

Athens is to have a base bull park. And some fino games will be played this spring and summit. In fact the lovers of the national apart will be in their glory. Monday Mr. JobnT. Voss went out among the citizens and secured sub scriptions to the amount of about one hundred and fifty dollirs for the pur pose of fencing in a baseball park and putting it in fli>t-i-las3 con lition. About two hundred and fifty dollars is needed for this purpose and it will be rapidly subscribed. The grounds will be located on tbe ex reme end of the Boulevard and will be donated by the Athens Park ^and ' Inprovement company so long as they are used as a base ball park. M". Voss will have the gr o ds graded at once and wilt order the lum ber for the fences and grand stand im mediately. In a few weeks the grounds wi'l be in perfect shsp; aqd ready to be opened tithe publ'o. They will be kept for base ball strictly and will no doubt be used a great deal There is already some talk of organ izirg a Northeast Ge< rgia base ball league, and if this plan matures, A the Qians will enjoy some rare spirt during this season.

One of the most fitting celebrations of Easter, a day that is now made j yous throughout all the world, was the beau tiful sacred concert given by the Home School on Sunday evening. One i f the greatest charms' of these entertainments is the delightful home feeling, the near presence of the lovely faces and happ/ hearts who in tbe beautyj&nd exuberance of youth pour forth the treasures of their voices In praise of the Divine Giver of all blessings.

The morning session was devoted to getting up a jury, and some witnesses were ex amined. Alter the noon recess, othei witnesses were introduced and at about ha:f past three o’i lock, tbe argument began. Hon. B. P.

He handled the case in his own able manner, and when the jury retired many conjcctu^s wire made as to what thi verdict would be. Some were of tbe opinion that the jury would hang and make a mistrial, others said that the ver dict would be guilty, while some be lieved that the defendant would be quitted. Tho jury was out about one hour, a returned a verdict of n< t guilty.
