By the act of the legislature making an appropriation for a Georgia exhibit at what promisoH to bo perhaps the greatest exposition over witnessed at the south, the commissioner of agri culture was made executive officer of the board of directors, which board con sists of the government and statoluHtr3 officers, the governor being chairman. Iu tlie original bill the commissioner of agriculture was directed to appoint 11 assistant exposition commissioners, one from each congressional district, hut by some oversight in tiro hurry and Confusion of the Inst days of the ses sion, this clause was omitted. It is, however, directed that euch fertilizer and soil inspector shall assist under the direction of the agricultural commis sioner in promoting the successful col lection of everything pertaining to (Georgia’s resources in the Held, garden, orchard, workshop, manufactory, every nrtiele from every source, which will illustrate to the assembled world that Georgia is the empire state of the south. For bo it remembered that this’ is to ho an exhibit, not only of the agricultural resources of tlio state, but. also of her industrial progress in every Other avenue of business and trade, as well as her magiiillnont natural re sources in minerals, ores and ino'als. Ah yet wo have formulated no settled plan Of action, but wo would appeal to every citizen of Georgia, irrespective of posi tion or occupation, to aid us in carrying this enterprise through to success, with the limited means at our disposal, it is a gigantic undertaking, and we want not only the sympathy, hut the active help, if possible, of ewy man and wo man iu the state. As soon as a positive course has been decided on, the decision will be published, and we will, from time to time, through the medium of the agricultural department reports, notify the public of our progress, and any important suggestions which may present themselves. In the meantime, any inquiries as to means and methods) also as to quality and quantify of ex hibits will lie cheerfully answered, and auy suggestions will be gladly received. R. T. N ksiuit, THE SMART WITNESS. The attorney thought the witness was a plump-born idiot and pro ceeded accordingly. “Did you say your name wn* John Smith?” he asked. “Yea, sir,” replied tha witness politely. “That’san odd name, isn't it?” “I don’t know as to that. I guess its about as even as moat of them.” “I’m—how old are you?”. “Twenty-si*, goin' on 27.” “You are going on 27, aro you ?”, “I guess so. Leastways. 1 ain't goin' away from it,” “Where do you live?” “At home.” This nettled the lawyer. “Well,” he asked, “do you know what I would do if I ware you?” “Yes air,” replied the witness so promptly that the lawyer atmoat lost his balance. “What would 1 do?” “1 guess you’d make about ns big a feol on the witness stand as you think 1 am,” and the court quelled the consequent disturb ance.
