The latter, soon niter the din commenced, be came more demonstrative and blocked tbe f recession and tore down Us banners. ierce tcuffles ensued, and many persons, including several policemen, were injnred. The police were pawerlcss to atop tbe dis order, and the gendarmes and civil gnard were called out, and attempted to reorgan ize the procession. Their efforts were fu tile, however, and the confusion became general. Tbe mob stopped the procession at various places, and the Clericals, finding themselves unable to advance, slowly dis- ersed. The melee gradually subsided, at great excitement prevailed during the evening. One hundred and eighty-five arrests were made. It is reported that three oi the injured have since died.

Y„ September 9.—The weather was oppressively warm and the crowd o! vi 1 o: B suffered much discom fort. The body of Judge Folger wns os tentatiously laid out at his home, and only those with whom he had officially associ ated and aj few of his more intimate friends among the townsmen were afford- ed an opportunity to view it. Every store, piece of business and residence from the railroad depot to the cemetery, a distance of two miles, is appropriately dressed in mourning. At one o'clock the last train had arrived and the crowd surged toward tho Folger residence. The villages and farming country about seemed to have tamed oat their popula tion <n mane to pay the last tribute of re spect to the illustrious deceased. At least 40,000 people thronged the principal streets of Geneva. At 2 o'clock the general pro cession began to form. The body of Judge Folgsr lay in the northeast room of tils late residence on Main street, in a massive casket covered with plain blackvelvct with silver mountings. It bore the following simple inscription: "Charles James Folger: Born April 16, 1818, died September 4, 1884." The President entereo the room accompanied by Secretaries Frelinghuysen, Teller auii Chandler and Postmaster-Genera! Gres bam and Assistant Secretary of the Trea. snry Coon. Tbe services took place in the First Presbyterian Chnrch, tbe interior of which was heavily draped in black. In the chnrch President Arthur occupied a seat well in front. In exact juxtaposition and seated next to him was Governor Cleve land. Tbe body was borne into the chnrch by colored bearers, preceded by the pall bearers, all of Geneva and life-long friends of the deceased. The pnlpit was occupied by the temporary pastor, Rev. Mr, Mooney, and Rev. Ilr. Potter, president of Harvard College, Rev. Dr. Hogarth, Rev. Dr. Strong, Rev. T.M.Hanso and Rev. Donald Grant, all clergymen oi the village. The son and daughters of Secretary Folger were not present at these obsequies, but later followed tho remains from the house to the cemetery. Rev. Dr. Upson, of Au burn, preached the fnneral discourse, with out text. In a brief sketch of his life, tbe clergyman stated that Mr. Folger num bered Benjamin Franklin among his an cestors. Mrs. Garrett Smith, of Albany, sang at the close "Rook oi Ages,” and Rev. Dr. E. N. Potter cave tbe apostolic benediction, after which the solemn procession to the cemetery formed in the following order President and the trustees of tho village, then Mr. Folger's corpse; a battery of artillery with Swift Post G. A. It ; Sigma Phi Fraternity; fire department; clergy; the hearse; the family; President Arth- thur and cabinet; Grovernor Cleveland and suite; judges of the Court of Appeals; Senators and members of Congress and department officials; members of the bar: other societies and citizens. Tbe street was literally blocked with vehicles and both sidewalks densely packed with pedes trians from the church to tbe grave, |wblie many thousands had already congregated in the cemetery. The grave was enclosed by the military and societies in tbe form ol a hollow square. The service was con ducted by Rev. Dr. Potter according to the ritual of the Episcopal Church. Mar * * the multitude lingered in the grounds, visitors from abroad quickly departed after bidding a last adieu to that which was mortal ot tbe illustrious dead. The New Orleans Exposition—Mo: Coorgln Commissioners—Vioww on the Situation, nnd .Mona- ureo Adopted-Notes. [SPECIAL CORECSPOSDE.VC*.] Atlanta, September 9.—Tbe Georgia commissioners to tbe New Orleans Exposi tion, comprising both district and county commissioners, summoned to the capital under call of the Governor, assembled in the Senate chamber at 11 o’clock tkia morning. Major Cooper, commissioner for the Fir*t Congressional district, called the meeting to order and moved the election of Dr. Janes as chairman, and X. P. Pratt, Jr., secretary. This motion prevailed and the meeting was fairly organized. Upon the suggestion of Judge Henderson, commis sioner of agriculture, the justness opened byatall upon commissioners present, in the order of ‘ tin* truth. Hon. John B. Davidson, commissioner for the Tenth Congressional district, ad. dressed tho body, reviewing tbe oigauiza- tion in hia district and the prospect success. He warmly indorsed that has been done by State Commissioner Bacon, and in the matter of raising the $5,009 desired, felt confident of raising the quota of $500 in hia district. Such was hia own interest in tho State ex hibit, that following a suggestion made, he would gladly be one of fiftv to contrib ute $100 each. Maj. Bacon here stated that they hoped to get along till tho Legis lature met with $5,000. but that the sum named above would be insufficient. Dr. Janes, in bcbslf of the Eighth Con cessional district, aald very little had been lone. Hon. M. V. Calvin, of the Ninth, made a similar report. A letter was read from District Coramis siouer Peacock, of the Seventh, expressing the hope that good wonld result from the meeting. He expressed the opinion that if the district commissioners bad canvass ed their districts and addressed the people of each county, probability of success would have been greater. A letter was read from Hon. R. J. Pow ell, of Barnesville, stating that he hoped to be present at the meeting. He thought there was little probability of raising money in his district, as the people were short of money and their interest largely absorbed in local politics. He suggested that the best method of raising money would be to appoint a competent man in each county to canvass for subscription. 4 Ia44a. maa waa.I fMsm \(. P A Vlsl.i A letter was read from Mr. IL A. Nlsbet, of Macon, to the effect that his engage ments were such as to prevent him giving the movement much attention, and farm duties would prevent his presence to-day. From tbe Fifth a letter was read from J, E. Nunnally, of Monroe, who reported gloomy outlook in “old Walton.” Mr. J. E. Peeks, of Griffin, commissioner for Spalding, made a report that so far little had been done. From the Fourth, Hon. P. N. Martin, of Coweta, stated that Hon. Henry It Harris was commissioner for the district, but was absent, and prob ably owing to pressing engagements una ble to be present. Himself and Mr. Rus sell. of Carro'l, were the only county com missioners present from the district, and bad no report to make. From the Third district. Commissioner Major John Cobb submitted a report, mak ing a very clear and Interesting review of the work and prospect of raising the money. His own district would, he had do doubt, come forward with $500, if that amount should be called for. in other matters bis report was similar to that from other die tricts. I rom the Second, a gloomy and discour aging letter was read from Hon. W. A, Harris, of Worth, district commissioner. Major Cooper, commissioner of the First district, made a very encour A PINE EXAMPLE. A crowd at tho recorder’s court tbis morning witnessed the trial of James Bol linger on the charge of keeping a disor derly house. Bollinger is a bar-keeper who has been running a dis reputable dive on Forsyth street, almost under the eaves of the capital. The place was palled Saturday night and this morning Bollinger was lined $75 and costs and his license revoked. This is a radical move in the right direc tion. and the recorder is to be commended for such prompt and thorough action in ’ ;<• 1M--I i l 4 . • .1.- v :ti. i ! morals. It is good work and all good peo ple will be glad to see it continued. ■ MEMORIAL SERMON. Trinity Cnurcb was packed last night on the occasion of the Bishop Pierce me morial services. Dr. Atticns G.

It was masterly and i'om|>r<-m"i'iYe-|.<-rlrij>8 tli*- sarm- sub stantially, as delivered at the funeral on Friday morning. IMPORT A XT RAILROAD CHANGES. It is reported to-day that B. W. Wren, for so many years the well known passen ger agent of tho Western and Atlantic rail road, has severed his connection with that road, and will take a similar position with the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad. It Is understood that he sent in his resignation some days ago and that the management of the road made every efl'ort to retain him. His resignation was accepted to-day. and it is likely Mr. Joseph M. Brown trill be appointed to tbe vacan cy, whose training and experience will doubtless make him efficient in that office. It is not stated when Mr. Wrenn will as sume his office on the East Tennessee,Vir- 'nia and Georgia road. Mr. Pope, who as heretofore filled the position of general passenger agent of the East Tennessee, Vir ginia and Georgia, lias been transferred to the Shenandoah Valley. Mr. Wrenn has long been identified with the Western and sitiantic, and it would appear that his trans’er to a rival road is not an insignifi cant change. Colonel Foracre is still improving, not withstanding his reported death is travel ing steadily through the State papers. t is probable that one of the defeated candidates for the Legislature at the re cent primary election iir tbis county con templates instituting an official inquiry into the causes of his defeat, which are not clear to bis mind. However, tbe election was co lair and the resnlt so clear there is not likely to be any contest over it. THE FIELDS ARE WHITE i- Christopher & co. WITH COTTON.

Harrison, acting secretary of the commission, is in receipt of a very encour aging letter from Messrs. Edbrooke & Burn ham, the architects, now in Chicago. They write that the bidding at the Chicago office is very brisk on all classes of the work, and if the bids pat in compare with the applications now being made, the prot- pect will be excellent. They answer letters and applications every day. They express the hope that there will be local bids. Georgia bids on the plastering, painting, ood-work and plnmbing. It will be a very strange etate of affairs and very discredit able to tbe State if there should be no bids for this work. There are certainly a plenty of men who are able to make these con tracts, and competent to do the work. Let them bid for it. OBDIB TO VACATE.

NOTES FROM THE W1UECRASS. Some Brief Observations, Conclusions nnd Philosophies. On Train, September 8.—Editor! Tele graph and ileuenger: A few days ago, un der the kindly chaperonage ot Conductor Ellis, your correspondent took a run on wbatls popularly known u the Brunswick rotd, going u far down as Lumber City En route we pus the |iubitaniial and thriving little towns of Cochran, Eastman. Mctlac and McVille, besides other places ol less importance, and many sawmills and turpentine distilleries before reaching Lumber City. Lumber City itself, in so far u Us name is indicative oi tbe basinets and occupation of its peoplel.s a misnomer Tbe place has even never been incorpo rated, and there is perhaps not a sawmill within the distance ol five miles. It Is simply an ambitious village, tbe centre of a farming community, and, bye the bye, has the prettiest country church I bare seen in all the wiregran. There was. however, a large lumber mill near here at one time, erected by a company of North ern capital sts.and its timbers, though now a half century old, are still sound and intact on the bank of tbe Little Ocmnlgee Tbis location wu called Old Lumber City, and still is, and from this fact the other probably derives Its name. In sll this section, running south and east to the cout, Macon has built up and sliU main tains a heavy trade, and so, of coarse, must (eel interested in and identified with its growth and prosperity. And it is grow ing. A country of small farms and Inde pendent farmers. The so'! is wonderfully productive, friable and easily tilled: hu a natural drainage and brings forth corn, cotton, cane and upland rice. Besides tbis, the general healthfulness of this re gion will compare favorably with any other portion oi tho State. With all these nat ural advantages, what there is to prevent an influx of population and steady growth I cannot see. Truly, it would seem that the once despised wiregrass section might yet become the "garden spot" of Georgia. Agricultural crops are reported u plenti ful and above the average, but tne lnmber- ing and naval stores interests are in a vtry depressed condition, owing to the heavy overproduction in these staples daring the luttwoor the li aging report from his district, and that his people were taking the liveliest in terest in the matter. He then introduced Judge Harden, oi Savannah, one oi tbe strongest and most enthusiastic friends oi tbe movement in that district. Judge Harden's remark* were listened to with profound attention They were eloquent and forcible, they revived spirit io the few present, and instilled new life Into the lagging movement. He deplored the pol icy of tha State in such matters in tbe past, her negleet or indlfferend to each grand opportunities, and her attitude at the present. He then gave a brief sketch of the work done in Savannah, which has been more active and productive of remits thin else where In the State. A very important matterdwelt upon by Judge Harden, as explaining to some ex tent the lively interest manifested by 8s- vanish, in making an exbibitst New Or leans, is that New Orleans Is making a mighty effort to draw cotton away from8avannah. and is leaving noth ing undone in that direction. In hia discussion of the question of money. Judge Harden made a strong argu ment that the Legislature under tbe const!' tutionbadthe power to make this appro priation notwithstanding tba contrary opinion, given by the Attorney-General. He referied to and discussed the various sections of the constitution of the State :tion in these staples during three rears. The Enirlixh the largest foreign takers of our naval stores, wbi e in London recently, tbe writer was told tbey bad on hand there a sufficiency of rosin to. last them, at tha present rate of consumption, two years, and that for the put twelve months they had ueeu buying simply because it was so cheap. And yet the poorly informed and short-sighted producers continue to make large crops, looking for better prices, which cannot come until production is lessened. In tbe face ot this it seems a pity that the upping of our magnificent pine forests •honld continue. In the production of rosin and turpentine Georgia now takes precedence, having forged ahead ot the Old North State, and Savannah Is now tbe largt-t naval stores port of the world. Political matters here abouts arc quiet. The returns from the primary election in Montgomery countv are not all in but indications point to the nomination of Allen McArthur for the Senate and Chu. Hamilton for the House. Two days spent uml- r the roof ot the beautiful country borne of Hon. W. T. McArthur, of McArthur, marks the con tinuation and end of a visit to tbe piny woods which hu been altogether p!ei ant, J. E. V, "Wonderful Efficacy." Some people are slow in telling what ;ood thingahave been done for them, rat Mr John P. Daly, of Gilllsonville, S. C., says he takes great pleasure in testifying to the wonderful efficacy, of Brown’s Iron Bitters in dyspepsia, fever and ague, and general debility of the system. He hu personally expe rienced the most satisfactory results from the use of this valuable medicine. Make a memorandum of this, all ye whose systems are ran down. Brown's Iron Bitters will euro you. Walton eonnty hss twelve Iswvtrs. bearing upon the matter. Following Judge Harden, Commissioner Dunn, of Glynn, made an excellent report for Brunswick. Mr. Dunn admitted being an Imported Yankee from New York, but hail been here thirteen years, his home and property are bsre, many of Ills dead are buried here, and wu proud of Georgia, lie hoped she would make an exhibit at New Orleans worthy other great name, end in justice to iboee who had come here and would come here to the Empire State. Major Adams commissioner from tbe Sixth bad no report to make, and did not believe his district would do anything.

Kimball, of Fulto.., interesting, earnest talk, urging active work and measures looking to a success- ful exhibit. Out of tbe targe number of commission ers, district and county, in the State there were only a score present at the meeting.
