Athens will lie thoroughly advertised, and hun dreds of strangers will be induced to nnest here. The most skillful engin eers will be employed to lay oft these embryo cities, and spots that are now i.iie wilds will be transformed into beau- tutil new towns. Instead of one park, Athens will have t*tio: these beautiful breathing places for her citizens—the Prince Avenue park, and another—carved from the bautiful forest and secluded nooks on the Lilly lauds. There will be no ri- v.tliy between the parks or land compa nies, for there will be enough new em it ns move into Athens to settle both properties. It is merely a question of choice as to which section of the city jou destre to settle or invest your mon ey in. # • lint wo all know that the foundation of any city is its manufacturers. Well, there will be no lack of these industries. Not less than a dozen new factories are under consideration, and by next year there will probably be twice that many in course of erection. Not only our own citizen*. hut strangers from abroad stand ready to invest their money here in machinery. Alrefdy a company has been formed with a large capital, to build an ice fac tory and chemical works. They will tint only be prepared to supply the whole surrounding country with ice, but will largely manufacture guano, acid mid other ingredients for fertili zers The necessai y capital has been Mih.-cribcd for these manufactories, and the success of this enterprise is assur- Tliere is another company formed from among our wealthiest citizens to dart to build in Athens a third foundry ami machine works, which will be oue w the largest in the State. The spe- •ally of those works will be the manu facture of all manner of improved agri cultural machinery. It will give em ployment to a large number of skilled mechanics. Om enterprising druggist Dr. John Crawford has decided on building a '"up factory here, and purchased a site '"Mlm purpose. He will give remuner ate employment to many women aud ‘■bihlivti. Athens will not then be ne- 't'-dtated to buy her soup from abroad, y*‘I besides this factory will supply all the surrounding country. It is a much toed enterprise. I he next assured enterprise is a broom Lctory. A gentleman has already de eded to establish one in Athens, aud °*r merchants and drummers have pledged to sell and handle only home made brooms.

Next month several North Carolina counties will vote on aid to Judge Thomas’ railroad. If the decision is fa vorable, lie will extend it to Knoxville without delay. JutLe Erwin and Col. D. W.

CoX, conductor on the North east road,is one of the cleverest officials in the State, lie is a general favorite with the travelling public. Maysvillc boasts oue of the prettiest village churches in the South. This speaks well for the people. Mr. Atkins, a farmer near Maysville, is H2 years of age, and is still a vigorous old gentleman. Mr.Fred llunnicutt was on the train. He has bought the five-legged cow ex hibited at the las - Athens fair, and it recently gave birth to a perfectly form ed calf. Since the oil company has established a tank at Athens, large oil cars are seen side-tracked at Lula. This is an im portant enterprise for our city. Messrs. Hodgson and O’Farrell have lately put in the finest and most im proved machinery at the ElevatorMills, and it is now one of the finest in the South.) Every one we saw was talking about the great future of Athens, and next fall we will have a large influx of new citizens and capital. The most pleating sight from the car windows is the bright and happy faces of the school children. New homes are going up all along the line of the Northeastern.

Yesterday’s Banxkr gave an account of the convention of the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows of the State, and that of the Encampment, stating as the time next Tuesday. This was a mistake, as the convention does not begin until Tuesday week, and continue from that time for three days. Besides the gentlemen mentioned, many others are contemplating going, and it is thought that a large delegation will be on hand to represent the Ath- en’s Lodges. Cheap rates have been secured, and the fare for the round trip will be only about five dollars. They Can’t Do It.—An Athens law yer tells us that the disciples of Black- stone, of Gainesville, are making a big effort to secure the greater part of the practice of Jackson county. He has just returned from Jefferson, and says there were quite as many Gainesville lawyers on band as those from Athens, aud they are doing their best to get ahead of the gentlemen from our city. They have undertaken a big job, and when any city downs Athens lawyers w e want to hear of it. As a gentleman remarked the other day, “AtbeuB has the best bar in the State.” INTELLECTUAL ATHENS. hercolleges andschoolsthe BEST IN THESTATE. Kind Words From Our Exchanges Concerning Them--The Outlook For the Next Session. Athens is the educational centre Of the Smith.” Jlow many times have you seen that expression in print? We venture to assert that the number wil run way up in the thousands, and it came under tl:e head of that equaily mucli used saying “trite but true.” How true it is can best be understood bv noticing the great number of pupils who come to seek the advantages offered by our city. These are not only great in number, but excellent in quality as well, as is shown by the records of those gentlemen and ladies who have acquired their education in the colleges and schools located here. Another demonstration isjthe opinion f those who have come here aud drunk more or less deeply at the fount of learning. Many of the graduates of the State University are now at the head of papers in the State, and readers of these always find some kind words for the University itself and the other institu tions of learning in our city. It is needless to try to add anything to the glorious reputation of our Uni versity, as the grand array of names of those who have been prominent in the State speaks for her past record. The future is brighter than it has over licen before, and Hie friends of the college are more thoroughly enthused than at any t : mc in the past. Chancellor Boggs has only been with us a year, but in that tiino has clearly demonstrated liis eminent capability to till the position. Besides being at the bead of the institution and attending to all its affairs in the best manner, he fills a chair in the University—that of mental and moral philosophy and polit- cal economy. As instructor in these studies, his su perior cannot be found, and those who have been under him are enthusiastic in their praise of his ability and method of teaching. During the past term it has been the object of the Chancellor aud Professors to raise the standard, and work for the upbuilding of tho University, especial- ly in regard to the quality of the stu dents. No idlers are wanted, and none who will retard the elasses in their pro gress. The course Was always been a high one, and one which could not be completed without a good amount of work, but the gentlemen who are in charge desire to plaee the standard so tar above all others South of Virginia as to put the University beyond com parison with colleges. A good start in this direction has al ready been made, and they do not pro pose to slack in their efforts until their highest wishes and hopes are made real. The plan to be adopted in the entrance examinations next fall have already been given in these columns as stated by the Cbanoellor. Briefly, no applicant is to be allowed to enter a class without standing a most rigid examination, and proving himself eminently qualified and prepared to take up the course of study prescribed, and push with rapidity and understand ing through it. Last year, many were turned away because of their incapability,and though a loss was sustained in numbers, it was more than compensated for by the great increase in quality. That Explosion.—The explosion re ported from Madison county: recently resulted in the death of only one of the hands, so a gentleman from that county informs us. Some five or six of the others were more or less injured, how ever, and it was a wonder that more were not killed. A Happy Makriagk.—Day before yesterday in Oconee county were mar ried Mi • Joe Elder and Miss Cora An derson. The groom has many friends in this city, where he is well-known. The bride is one of Oconee’s fairest daughters, and congratulations are ex tended the happy couple from all sides. DIED IN OCONEE COUNTY. The Soul of Mrs. J. W. Brlghtwe^, of Athens Passes Away. Th’e sad news reached the eity yester day of the death of Mrs. J. W. Bright- well in Oconee county the day before. Mrs. Brightwell had been in bad health for a long time, but it was hoped that she would be improved by thff country air and return home strong and She was at the home of her parents near Farmington, and her husband had been with lier a few hours before her death. He was in the city, however, when she passed away, and left yesterday, accompanied by his brother for Oconee county. ' Mrs. Brightwell was a most estimable lady, and was blessed with a great many friends in the city and surround ing country, who now mourn her loss deenlv. She leaves three children, who vvill miss the tender love and training cf a mother. To these and to her numer ous relatives and friends wc extend our sympathies. Besides our University, we have the finest Female Institute in the State, and one that is recognized as such by all who have knowledge of such institutions. The Lucy Cobb Institute has gradua ted some of the fairest and most intel lectual ladies Of our State, and every eity in it contributes pupils to the col lege each year. Miss Rutherford is one of, if not the best instructress in the South, and she lias a just reputation for an extreme ly high degree of intellectuality. She is assisted by a corps of assist ants in every branch of learning which may be of pleasure or use to ladies, and besides lectures are contributed by pro fessors of the University and other gen tlemen in special studies. The school was very prosperous last term, aud the outlook for an increased attendance is exceedingly bright. Then there is the Home School. This is just what its name implies. It is a srliool in which the pupils are cared for as if they were at their homes, and is under the tender eharge of Mad am aud Miss Sosnowski. These ladies can not be overreached by any in intel lectual accomplishments, and exert a most beneficial and tender influence over the scholars. It is a proverbial fact of the great love and admiration which the pupils bear towards these la dies, and they justly deserve it from those over whom they have so carefully watched. Mrs. E. A. Crawford also recently opened a private school for young la dies here, and has met with the great success h r qualifications deserve. Her school has been well patronized by some of Augusta’s fair daughters, and these will testify to the excellent training they received. THE CONVENTION IN ATLANTA. HON. W. Y. ATKINSON MADE PER MANENTCH AIRMAN. Lester Will be Next Attorney Genera- —'The Vote for Commlssloner--The Details of the Meeting—The Platform Adopted- The public schools of Athens have a deserved reputation, and under the skilled superintendence of Prof. Bran son have prospered greatly. The teachers of the various grades ore all well informed in the various branches taught. The schools are in a most ex cellent condition, and a much larger number attended them last year than ever before. This is a brief summary of our schools and no praise would be too extravagant for any of them. Columns could be written on the su perior advantages of each, and in praise of the University volumes could be given. 'The good these have done the city is incalculable, and Athens has just cause to rejoice in tho possession of them as she does. Truly our educational advantages are unsurpassed. BURIAL OF KEMMLER. What Is Left of Him Is Interred In the Prison Burying Ground.: t Special by News Telegram Association. Aobukn, N. Y., August 8.—It was an unpretentious funeral that occurred from the Auburn state prison at an ear ly hour this m iming. What the sur geons had left of the remaius of Wil liam Kenimler had been placed in. a plain pine coffin. The coffin had then been filled in with quick lime. No clergy man was present aud no religious word was uttered. The family of the dead murderer hail failed to claim his body and it was in terred as tlie law directs. Atlanta. Ga., August ft.—Ar early as eleven o’clock a crowd begun to ar rive, everybody being anxious, it seem ed to get a good seat. Familiar faces were to be seen on all sides. Prominent among tbc delegates were noticed many of the niemlierv of the last legislature, and a goodly propor tion of those who have been chosen to represent their counties in the next. There was tho hum and bustle charac teristic of such a gathering, without a break until the stentorian voice of the very Honorable Bill Harris, of Worth, b iseeehing the delegates of the second district to come up to the stand. For some reason or other the delegates from the second district failed to respond promptly and call after call of the hon orable Bill failed to bring them. Each of his requests called forth a ripple of ap plause and decidedly calls of louder, louder. Steve Ulay, who is one of the princi pal Lester Hustlers, was in every place at the same lime, or as nearly s7f*"Ss a man could well be. Mark Ilardiu was on hand, of course, and back in tho clerk’s room Col. Bob Burner and Col. Evan Howell, were noticed in consultation. John Temple Graves who it is under stood is to plaee Col. Northen’s name before the convention, came in about a quarter before twelve end was soon tile centre of interested crowds. Graves was a pupil of Col. Northen’s and is one of bis most enthusiastic admirers. After him Jim Smith, of Oglethorpe, vrfll second the nomination followed by one of Bibb’s delegates, probably Wash Dessau, who, by special request of Col. llendersoD, will second the nomination. Then Judge Frank Little, on behalf of Col. Northen’s home people in Han cock, will say a word for him. The crowd grows thicker and thicker. Emmett Womack, who is a candidate for permanent chairman is shaking bands with bis friends everywhere. Gus Little aud W. Y. Atkinson arm in arm oceupy the speaker’s chair and are discussing the same proposition. Little was talked of for the plaee, but tbe Nesbitt and Uunnicutt men it is an nounced have combined on Atkinson, who is a strong llunnicutt worker. This combination, it was understood, was made in tbe interest of the combi nation between Nesbitt and Hunnicutt, but it seems at this writing as if the de feat of Emmett Wotaack may result iu the election of Henderson, proving a. boomerang in its reaction upon the peo ple who conceived it. As the hands of the great clock move on toward to noonday hour the aisles are filled with delegates who cannot find seats and of others who are en deavoring to get seats by the delegates from their homo counties. Of course that gives rise to a great deal of confu sion, but it will soon quit down. Promptly at twelve o’clock handsome Bob Burner of the executive commis- siou for order and in a speech full of good democratic doctrine called the oon- venton to order. Hardeman, of Jones, then proposed the name of Dr. DeJarnettc.of Putnam. Judge Gibson, of Richmond, iu a short speech indorsed the speech of Chairman Berner, and presented the name of Hon. W. D. Kiddoo, of Ran dolph, for temporary chairman. Mr. Roberts, of Douglasvillc, seconds tin* name of Mr. Kiddoo in a short speech. The chair announces that Mark Hardin and Bill Harris will act as secretaries to call the roll. The call of the roll developed the fact that the Nesbitt and Hunnicutt men were sup porting Kiddoo to make a show of their strength. The Henderson people didn’t seem to catch on to this aud a good many of them voted forjudge Kiddoo. Tiie result of the count showed over 200 votes for Kiddoo, and upon motion of Joe Gross, of Polk county, seconded by Bill Harris; he was declared tbe unanimous choice of the convention. He was escorted to the chair by the committee and upon being introduced made a short talk. Mark Hardin, H. H. Cabiniss, Bill Harris and Eugene Speer were chosen a- temporary secretaries, and then upon motion of Hon. W. A. Little, of Colum bus, the counties were instructed to send up to the chair their credentials. This work consumed nearly half the hour Then upon motion of the effervescent statesman from Worth, it was decided to go into the election of permanent of ficers. Mr. Donaldson presented the name of W. Y. Atkinson, of Coweta. This an nouncement was greeted with great ap plause. Col. Peek, of Rockdale, pre sented the name of Emmett Womack. It was evident from the start that At kinson was the man. This was another attempt by the Nesbitt and Hunnicutt men to show their strength, but the Henderson men also voted;for Atkinson, and the humor ous gentlemen from Newton was badly snowed under. Emmett, however, came up smiling with the announce ment that he perceived that something over ISO of his good friends had re quested him to retire from the race, and he was glad to be able to grant their re quest. He therefore moved to make the nomination of Col. Atkinson unan imous, which was promptly done, and Col. Atkinson was escorted to the chair by a committee appointed for that pur pose. Col. Atkinson made an animated speech accepting the position. Mr. Hoke bmith moved an order of business and that the convention pro ceed at once to the nomination in the following order: First Governor, second Secretary of State, third, Treasurer, fourth, Comp troller General, fifth, Attorney Gener al and sixth Commissioner of Agricul ture. Mr. Qlenu, of Whitfield, moved to amend the original resolution by in serting the selection of a committee of resolution, and Mr. Jack Spalding moved to amend by adding that all res olutions presented to go to the vote of the committee without debate. This resolution was adopted as amended. Mr. Dessau moved that the chair put ou the corami'tee on resolutions two from the State at large in addition to the one from each congressional district. This was adopted. John Temple Graves recognized. As he moved towards the chair it was no ticed by his friends that he did not look in his usual health, but he started what promised to be a brilliant presentation tion of the name of Georgia’s next govertior. He spoke about five minutes, but could not proceed. He almost fainted and at several times stopped. An effort was made to ad journ, that the speech might be heard after dinner. But with characteristic grit he rose on his feet and with a pret- I tv tribute to the worth of tbe iuhii pie- ; Rented lo the convention the name of Hon. W. J. Northern Col. Jim .Smith, ! of Oglethorpe, us per the programme seconded the nomination as a represen tative farmer. He was followed by j Hon. Bart Bateman, of Houston and ’ by Hon. Frank Little, of Hancock, j lion. W. J Northen was then declared ! elected by a standing vote. Then the chair appointed tho follow ing committee on resolution: lioke Smith, T. A. McIntyre, A. 1. Branham. M. L. Everett, B. H. Williams, R. U. Hardeman, T. W. Aiken, .1 T. DoJar- netto. Carter Tate, 11. Clay Fosler, and at large Washington Dessau and W. C, Glenn. Glenn. j Then upon motion • f Hou. Gus Little, | Phil Cook was nominated for Secretary • of State by acclamation. Then came 1 Bob Hardeman, Bill Harris nominating. ? Then Bob Nesbitt, of Macon, presented ; (lie name of Capt, W. A. Wright for Comptroller General, and this like t4w others went through by acclamation. There were calls, then, for an ad journment, but all these were cried down. Then came nominations for Attorney General. Steve Clay, back under tbe gallery, his boy ish face beaming with tbe fire of eloquence, stepped forward to pre sent the name of his fellow-townsman, J udge Lester. The ex-Speaker never made so eloquent a speech before, and never was oraror greeted with more en thusiastic applause. Then came Henry Richardson. In burning words of eloquence he told of Clifford Anderson’s service as a gallant confederate solder, and of his splendid services as attorney general. 11c, too, was armly received. Then Price Gilbert and John Shan non, both boyish and eloquent,seconded Anderson and Lester respectively, and the voting began. Special counties were cheered. Sev eral counties voted for Lester, announc ing that they did so under instructions, though their hearts were elsewhere. For a short time the totals ran close to gether, but then Lester drew ahead,the total showing Lester 200; Ando son,136. As the 171, 173,175, 175 line was passed there was great cheering by tbe Lester men. Elom Christian, of Douglass, nomi nated without form R. T. Nesbitt. Then VV. A. Turner, of Coweta, nam ed J.B. Hunnicutt. - And M J. Branch, of Columbia, pre sented tbe name of Judge Henderson. Then tbe voting began- It was close between Nesbitt aud Henderson all the way through, but right at the last Nes bitt drew two ahead,the totals showing Nesbitt, 142; Hendetson, 140; Hunni cutt, 55. The second ballot began under a good deal of confusion,over which the speak ers gavel eoul 1 have no control. With this ballot Henderson drew ahead, tbe total at tbe close being,Henderson, 146; Nesbitt, 141; Hunnicutt, 49. The third ballot showed changes from Hunnicutt to Nesbitt. The totals this time were, Nesbitt, 152; Henderson, 137; Hunnicutt, 44. The platform as reported by the oom- mittee on resolutions is as follows: Tbe Democratic party of Georgia in convention assembled hereby renews its pledges to tbe political principles set forth in the national democratic plat form of1SS8. We favor correcting all the abuses of government by a strict reliance upon the integrity and ability of tbe demo cratic party. We point with pride to the fidelity and capacity with which the affairs of state have been managed by our distin guished governor, Johu B. Gordon,aud the other statehouse officers.
