The long talked of ball came oft* Monday night, and was a success in every particular. Sinichas Torah, means the feast of *ho tabernacle, and is celebrated in honor of the comple tion of the temple over which Moses and Aaron prc.sidcd as high priest, and the presentation to the children of Isrni-1 of the lnws as contained in the old testament. In Kurope this is ob served as an occasion of great rejoicing, of dancing and feasting. The Germans of Albany never do things hy halve?—but,when tiny in augurate a ball or anything else they are pretty sure to carry it to a success ful termination. Monday n : g’t Ti t’a Hall was aglow with animating b auty; handsomely attired ladies and gentle men in complete hall dress. Israel’s fairest daughters and most gallant sons, keeping time to the lively and inspiring -trains of Modena’s band, as they glided in graceful couples over the waxed iioor, presented a lively scene. The committee of arrangements de serve credit for their earnest, untiring endeavors to make it pleasant for all. And we feel under especial obligations to Messrs. Richard and David Robin son for their many kind attentions. But we think it wrong to individualize, when we were the recipient of so many courtesies from, not only the commit tee, but numeroua other gentlemen. At 12 o’clock all adjourned to the Bogen House, where an elegant supper awaited them, to which the merry par ty did ample justice. After supper the devotees of Terpsichore returned to the hall and the dance was resumed, and continued without interruption until after 3 o’clock, when fatigued nature demanded rest, and the festivities of the evening came to a close. Want of space forbids us saying more. It was a most enjoyable affair. Quarterly Conference. The fourth and last Quarterly Con ference of the Methodist Church of this city was held Saturday night, and was well attended. Sunday morning Presiding Elder, Rev. T. T. Christian, occupied the pulpit, and again at the evening services he officiated. In the course of his eloquent discourse ho endeavored to impress upon mothers and fathers the importance of making good impressions upon the minds of their children. To so act and speak in the presence of their little ones that when they have passed away and their children grown to manhood and wo manhood these good impressions in delibly stamped upon their young hearts may influence their whole life. It is at the fimily fireside where thc gem of future greatness is planted in the boyish breast. The learnings of thc university may fade from the re collection; it’s classic lor«* moulder in the halls of memory; but the simple lessons of home instilled into the youthful heart by a father and mother defy the rust and chango of time. Mr. Christian announced that this would be his last appearance in our pulpit this year. At the close of his sermon Rev. H. R. Felder, our beloved Molhodist pastor, made an earnest and eloquent appeal to those yet lingering without the pale o the church. I can assure you that in no single in stance has the Teethina ever proved a failure.

Macon Telegraph and Messenger 24th : As will be seen from ihe notice which appears elsewhere, Robt J. Hill d»ed last afternoon, at the residence of his sister, Mrs. James Seymour, on Tatnall Square. Mr. Hill ha? been ill for several w'eeks, and his passing away was not unlocked for. He was born, we believe, in Baldwin county’, though the greater portion of his life was spent in and around Americus. He is a broth er of Capt James A. Hill, of our city. Some years ago he was so unfortunate as to lose his eyo-ight, since which time he has been under the tender care of his sister, M vs. Seymour, who, by her constant devotion in every way, lessened the burden of life for him. His was a disposition “as gentle as a woman’s and as manly as a man’s ” Generous and brave, just and warm hearted, his life was made up of sacrifi ces for others. As he has sown, so shall lie reap. Thc funeral services and interment will take place this af ternoon. in Americus, Georg a. Mr. Hill was a brother uf Mrs. T. 1$. Johrston, and was well known and highly respected in A’bany, where he has spent eonsi ’erable time.

I have looked into thc matter fully, an i find that the Democratic party is so demoralized by factions that I can not rely upon it for a hearty support, and hence I may bo defeated. I am a true organized Democrat, and when my party selects a candidate, I will support the nominee. But I regret to find that party obligations are now very weak.

The Joint Dlacii.alou Wednesday. The Hon. T. M. Norwood and Ci L U. J. Moses both having appointments to speak in this city Wednesday,,the re spective friends of Governor Colquitt and Mr. Norwood agreed upon ajoii t discussion, which agreement was car- ried out by the speakers at Willing ham’s Hall. It being Mr. Norwood’s regular ap pointment here, he was accorded tbe right of opening and concluding the discussion, and the time allowed to each speaker was two hours. The hall was pretty well filled at the appointed hour, 11 o'clock, and Mr. Norwood was introduced by Col. Joseph Armstrong. Col. Mose*,^who spoke in behalf of Governor Colquitt, was introduce d by Judge W. T. Jones. Before Mr. Norwood was half through his first speech the hall was densely crowded, about one-fourth of the audience being colored people. Wc will not undertake to report either of the speeches. To do them justice would require more space than our columns could afford. Mr. Norwood and Col. Moses are both fine speakers, and thc friends of each seemed well satisfied with their respective efforts on this occasion. The discussion was spirited throughout, but each speaker avoided anything like unpleasant per sonalities, and good humor was main tained throughout Taken altogether, it was one of the most pleasant and in- tereiting political discussions that we have ever heard. As the News axu Advertises is committed to neither of the candidates fur Governor, and occupies a neutral position in the canvass between them, it affords us pleasure to be able to say that tbe friends of both Governor Col quitt and Mi. Norwood are highly pleased with Wednesday’s d'seussion, each cliaming that the result will add to the strength of their respective can didates. Both sides are happy, and all that we have to say by way of 4 com- inent is, that we are glad of it. A GOOD SQGABE MEAIi. Tbe San Solid Restaurant.

ET Welch, The following action was taken: Whereas, The laws require tbe'pay- ment of all tnxes due for the year 1878 and 1879, as an indispensable qualifica tion to vote in the approaching State election. And Whereat, This Board is charg ed with the administration of the laws for the free education of the children of our county, the extent of which educa tion is dependent chiefly upon the col lection of the poll tax. Therefore, be it Resolved, That this Board, in pursu ance of their duty to the children of the county, will appoint a committe of chalengeis at each precinct on the 6th day of October to see that every voter shall have paid his school tax. Resolved, That the tax collector, J. R. Forrester, K-q., be, and he is hereby required to comperete witli us by fur nishing a list of those who have paid, and otherwise, as far M practicable. The special attention of citizen tax payers is called to the following laws: Acts of 1874, Page 111. “Be it enact ed, etc., that it shall not be lawful for any manager of an election, nr other person, to receive any money for taxes on the day of election, except the tax- collector. and if ony voter shall vote who lias not paid his taxes his vote "hall be illegal, and the commissioners who consolidate the returns of the election shall not count such votes in making out the return.' It will be seen by this that no taxes can Lv paid on the day of election ex cept at dbe Albany precinct, where Ihe tax collector will be. Let all who can pay their taxes previous to the day of election, or vote at the Albany precinct where they will have an opportunity of paying. The act of 1879 makes it a (misde meanor to vote without paying taxes, and subjects thc offenders to a fine of not exceeding $1000, or twelve months on thc chain gang, or h°th, or both in the discretion of the judgj. By order of the Board of Education of Dougherty county. Nelson Tift, L. E. Welch, President. Secretary. An Explanation. To the News and Advertiser: At t'le Courthouse in Albany on Saturday last, after Gen. Wofford had concluded his speech, I arose to ask him a few questions; and unintentionally and in advertently, when I arose, I began by stating that I had always voted the Democratic ticket, which certainly was not true, as all who know me will know the reverse to be true, anti that I never have voted a Democratic ticket 1 have always been a RipuUican and voted that ticket. As Gen. Wofford had commented se verely, as I thought upon Gov. Col quitt's management of the convicts and treatment of them, I arose to ask him if any other Governor could, und t ex isting laws, do any better or have the convicts treated better. J1 v object was not to disturb the meeting in any respect, but simply to get information as to whether the management and treatment of the convicts was due to the imperfection of the law under » hich the system was originated or thc want of its proper execution by the Governor.
