Y csterday afternoon the directors of the Public Library met to take into considera tion the proposed walking match between It aeon and Atlanta, to be conducted un. der the auspices of the libraries of the two cities.

We. the grand Jury at tbe May terra, 1884, of the United States District Court of the western division of the southern district of Georgia, beg as a conclusion of our duties to submit t K e following, to-wit: 1. Judging from the small number of violations of the laws of the United States that we have been called upon to in vestigate, we think that a law-abiding spirit is prevalent among our citizens, which attests a good state of public moral ity and a vi gilant prosecution of offenders by the United States courts. 2. While uttering tha above, we never theless are compelled to say that our at tention has been colled to the lart that many of the witnesses who appear before the United States courts manliest a shock ing disregard of the truth, atul rcadilv THE SPARTA VISIT. Schedule and Rates for the Round Trip. Our friends in Hancook arc preparing (o give the Second Georgia Battalion one of the grandest barbecues the county ever had on the occasion of their trip on June 5th. log snawih. m hr .vmdwtcd under the testify to what they must know is utterly manyrmrnt^of the f A i se . We cannot employ language - vigorous enough to express arx*. It was pro- j ome 7th. ai ^ kwurSaturday 1 eontenipt for* ami condeiunai’ioii of false ir.a! an excursion swearing. In every case where our atten ano ins: an excursion .wearing. In every case where our atten- ■ar. Atiaata to Macon, in tiun has been called to the crime, and the On that day the drill and impectlon ol the battalion by Col. Wiley and .tefl will take place. The battalion i. composed of the Macon Volunteer.. Floyd Rifle, and Southern Cadets,of Macon: the Raldwin Blues, of Milledgevllle; the IhitnnmlRiflcs, of Eatonton, and the Hancock Van Guard., of Sparta. The College Cadets, of Milledgeville, and the College Cadet., of Sparta Academy, wlllbe assigned places in tile battalion, and will take part in the ex- ercisea of the day. In addition to the vis iting companies there will lie large delega tions of citizena from each of the ciliea named present on the occasion. Major Knatip, of the Central railroad, lias furnished us witli the following sched ule and rates: Tha special train will leave passenger depot at :>::J0 a. m.; leave ilgeville at 7 :23 a. m.; arri M lilt ih r So give vmirars the opportunity of "mg at as little cost ss possible—the ■ns. as he rvoduvtrd at the park, and tetitnc.ro be allowed from each place; amiable pm* to be offered by the two Hbislii i who were to share all theex- jjsncs. and enjoy -mutually all the profits. The prizes wouilbe valuable and tempting, In order to indace the fittest competition and tl%rery beat entries. It was proposed that the excursion should leave Atlanta as early aa possible on the day appointed, and that the match should be a six-boar, go-as- you-please, commencing at 12 oclock and ending at S o'clock. The object of the meeting, then, was to take the proposition in band and come to some definite action upon it. He was ready to hear from any one present who desired to say anything tin the subject. The idea was taken up and enthusiastic ally- discussed by every member present. All thought It a splendid one and were in favor of accepting it immediately. In fact, tt. acceptance was so unanimous that everyone almost unconsciously began to enter into glowing preparations for tbe oc casion. deeming It an accomplished fact from tbe beginning. A committee, consisting of Messrs. Jones, lAwton and Cbestney, was appointed to raise $300 for the necessary prizes. Mr. W. A. Haris, as a committee of one, was appointed to secure the park and to make all preparations in that direction needed. On motion, a special committee of five, consisting of Messrs. Powell, Mack, Davis, Damour and Camp, were appointed to take general charge of the matter, and do all that waa necessary to be done in the premises. Major Cliestney suggested a bicycle race piso, bnt lor various reasons it was not ilecmcd proper to adopt tho suggestion. It was withdrawn. On motion, the meeting then ad journed. That the match will be successnlly ar ranged seems already to lie an assured fact That it will bo equally successful is likewise evident Tbe committee ap pointed to arrange matters will enter Into their work promptly and heartily. They in vite everybody to make a test ol tlielr speed nnd endurance, and, beginning Wednesday afternoon at tbe park, will begin the con duction of a aeriea of practice matches in srdcr that they may decide on six persons to represent Macon In the big match on the 7th. Hundreds, ot course, will enter, and the Internal will be unbounded. The final decision or selectlo n of the six to •snter for Maoon will be made about three days before tbe day of the cohtest. In or der that nothing may be misapprehended, tt may be well to state that the committee, in their (election, will consider only those who enter the practice matches. Those srbo will enter will chose their trainers immediately and begin to prepare for the # great contest. All AMATttm WALK. The proposition to rtt sir ot Macon's walkers with six of the participants In the decent walking matches In Atlanta was 'received moat favorably by our boys yes terday. It was suggested daring the morning that a few of tbe boys go down to Uie park and take a spin around the mile track for au hour to see what could be done, and straightway thirteen of them hail their names down on the lisL quite a large crowd ol citizena went down to see tbe sport, and at a law min utes to four o'clock, all was announced ready. Messrs. W. A. Davis, C. K. Da mour, L. M. Jones and J. A. McGregor consented to act as judges, with Mr. A. W. Batts as timekeeper. The walker, were to stand under tbe win at the judges stand and start at the tap ot the bell. The number* for positions were placed in a bat and drawn, and the line was formed as follows: Mr. \V. N.

At the Up of the bell, all bounded off in an easy run, with Tsnkereley in the lead, keeping it throughout the entire time. He ran the lint two miles, and then kept up a steady lick. Harry McKay proved himself a good walker, making his first mile in 0:40. The Juhan dots kept a sort of Weston gait, and were steady walkers. Willie famed In on the sixth mile, but Charlie kepi on and seemed as fresh ss when he started. evidence before us sustained the cfiargc.wc found true bi) • agaiast the accused. And we esnecially invoke the attention of future grand juries of this court to this subject, with the hope that they will show no mer cy to oflenders of this class. | 3.

It has been Justly remarked tbe popular . idgment, deliberately made up, is cor rect and reliable. It stamps with its own peculiar seal whatever it approves. The .-c • its reputation which survives its searching and critical tests is established on a firm feundation. The really meritorious art!- cal finds favor at first, but slowly and with many rebuff*: its inherent virtue contin ually asserts itself; its elasticity rebounds higher with every check, until it reaches the height of favor to which it is entitled. Burnett's Cocoaine for the hair and Burnett's Standard Flavoring Extracts for cooking purposes are articles in point. They have been before the public many years: one by one they acquired friend? William W. Collins, Foreman. THE SCHOOL QUESTION. Something More About .the Country Schools and Teachers, Pro bono publico should be the object aimed at by everyone who touches upon a public question. It is not to make warfare upon Prof. Zettler, or anyone ehc, that I am prompted to the indictment of this A- tide, but simply to make whatieemsfo me a practical suggestion. Repeated trials have convinced some o fus in tbe country that schools in certain localities will not thrive well under the care of a female teacher. I have in my mind’s eye now a school of an average attendance of sixty five scholars. In this school female teach ers have several times been employed, and the invariable rule has been that the school has been short-lived and of but little prac tical good. On the contrary, the school has always done well under a good male teacher. An accomplished male teacher—one who has spent considerable time and money in classical preparation—cannot afford, as Prof. Zettler says, to teach for what the public school fund pays. Here comes in the di lemma.-. Here is a fine school under a male teacher that would almost be worthless under almost any female teacher. What is to be done? Prof. Zetler answers: "Let tbe patrons pay the deficit.” Very well. Let those who dance pay the fiddler. If there is In this schoof of sixty-five or seventy scholars a dozen Latin or Greek scholars whose advance ment makes it necessary for them to have a classic teacher, then in common justice let them pay for these extra accomplish' menu of the teacher, and not imr ; arrive at Sparta PREMIUMS FOR CLUBS. We will send the Weekly Tele graph and Messenger for one year, free, to any one who will get up a club of five subscribers for it at one dollar and twenty-five cents each per year; or to any one who will get up a club of ten subscribers to it at one dollar each per year.

The lucky holder of one fifth of ticket 18.842, which drew the capital prize of $75,000 in The Louisiana State Lottery last Tuesday, is Mr. Isaac Haines, the en gineer of passenger engine No. 51, on the Memphiinind Charleston Railroad. The gentlemen was interviewed at Chattanoo ga last Wednesday, by an attache of the Times, ami the journal on yesterday had the following on the subject: “I'll tell you how it happened,’ said Mr. Haines. ‘I happened to find au old dollar bill in my porkrtbook when in Memphis last week, and while sauntering along the street, con cluded to buy a lottery ticket. 1 put it away and thought no moriof it until this morning, when a gentleman showed me a telegram from New Orleans, stating that ticket No. 18,842 had drawn the ca^iUl rize $75,000 in The Louisiana State J then (hey counted their hundreds; then their thousands. Success created rivals; competition assailed them, but their ster ling merits withstood all opposition, and the popular verdict was largely rendered in their favor. These together with Burnett's other Toilet Articles, are now "household words,” and in household use through out the States aud in many foreign coun tries. They are of such admirable make as to combine substance witli elegance—the supply of a genuine want with nn appeal to tne imagination in the poetry of their composition. And for these reasons Bur nett s Preparations will enjoy an ever-in- creaeing sale, and an every-brightening lie reputation. Tha United States Circuit and Dlstrlcr Courts. The case of the United States vs. John I. Washington, Butts county, charged with counterfeiting, was i celled and con< tinued on account of unavoidable absence of Judge W. D.

If tbe teachers of higher attainments cannot afford to take such a school lor the compensation which the county pays, then give us a faithful and trustworthy roan, capable of teaching what we usually call an English education, and who will teach for what the county pays, or else ITM.il IUI nilttl Ul« lUMIIi; VI TI3C 1.1 thoee farther advanced, anti who want tli. daisies taught, pay the premium on that sort of teaching. I do not wl.h to be understood as bid ding for a cheap or Incompetent man. Nor do I a'Ucb blame to the accomplished man for declining the >alary offend, i or do 1 make any war npon the county school commissioners; but I do oppose the muses haring to pay the premium for teachers io teach a few advanced schol ar.. Good men can be found, thoroughly capable of Imparting a good Engliah edu cation, who might consider the salary paid by tbe county amply sufficient com pensation, and woold do their wholedul for such salary. Very respectfully. C. W. V. The trial ol the case of the United State* ts. John I. Washington, of Butts county, charged with making and passing counter feit coins, consumed the greater part of Tuesday and alt of yesterday. At 12 o'clock noon tne css. wu given to the jury, and at 4 o'clock p. m„ they came into court and announced that they had failed to agrac. They were thereupon discharged and mistrial ordered. Judge W. D. Stone, of Forsyth, repre- uitcd the defendant. It ia improbable that the case will be reassigned tbe present term, ss the courts are expwted to adjourn on Baturday next.
