A FLOATING COLLEGE
President W. S. Clark, of the Agri
cultural Go liege, is to leave Amherst 11-
gain for a while, to become President
of a floating college vb ich is to make
a voyage around the world. A fine iron
steamship has been bought abroad,
which will have ovary convenience nec
essary for the comfort of 230 students,
who are to pay §2,509 each for the
trip. The vessel, the Gea. Wer.ler, is
now in New York harbor, where she-
will receive her outfit, and be in readi
ness to sail ou the first of next May.
The first point touched will bo the A-
zores; thence to Ireland, England, Swe
den, Norway, Antwerp, Hamburg
aud St. Petersburg, and thence to Ha
re and other French ports, and also
Spain and Portugal; then up the Med
iterranean to Constantinople and Smyr
na. Egypt ami Nile will also be taken
in, and the party will pass throngh the
Suez canal into the Bed Sea aud on to
Ceylon, India and Calcutta. The
route will include the principal porls
and cities of China and Japan, and the
way homo is by the Sandwich I-dands to
San Francisco. The expedition will
leave the ship at San Francisco, aud
make the remaining dist auce overland,
stopping off occasionally to visit yarions
points of interest both north and south
of the lino of the railroad, and the par
ty expect to reach New York at the end
of a year and a half. The Gen. Werder
will sail under the American flag,
though a foreign built vessel, a lull
having been put throngh Congress al
lowing her to come iu free of duty, in
oonsiderutiou of the purpose fur which
she is chartered.
The projector of this enterprise is a
young man of means from Auburu, JS.
York., who, after correspondence with
President Clark ou the subject, came to
Amherst aud secured him to become
President of this floatiug college, aud
arraigned the minor details of compen
sation, which are liberal aud satisfacto

Scale, an article that has always been
no.idcd in every household, & in a com
munication addressed to the publisher
of this paper the propriet ors ask ns to
refer them to some reliable party, to
introduce it for them to the people oi
this Conuty. It is very seldom that a
new article steps so. .suddenly into a
universal iavor. Housekeepers are
loud iu its praise, it is always ready,
there are no weights to get lost or to be
bunted an, is reliable, and will not get
out of order. The description of them
is a handsome base surmounted by a
column in which works a spiral spring
so scientifically adjusted as to weigh
anything up to twelve pounds with per
fect accuracy, on the top of the col
umn is the platform on which tLe ar
ticles to bo weighed are placed, and
they have an adjustable indicator so
that you can take the taro of any ves
sel,you may use in weighing, giving
yon the exact net weight. Housekeep
ers at once see their value in weighing
fruits, sugara and other ingredients
used in preserving, cooking etc., or
in testing the weights of purchases
from others.
The Scales are made of all Brass, are
highly polished and are finished in a
skillful manner. They are very attrac
tive and fake t le eye of every one who
sees them.
It seems to us that nearly every
family in this conuty will want one,
aud is certainly a rare opportunity for
some smart aud energetic party to
piok up quite a nice little income dur-
iug the next few month. The compa
ny has ngents in other couuties who
are easily making from §5 00 to §6 00 1
per day selling them, aud we would'
recommend parties in need of employ
ment to drop the OHIO SCALE

fully given them by mentioning our

Seed Cremation.—A large crowd
gathered about nightfall last night, in
front of the store of Messrs, Hunt
Rankin & Lamar, where an immense
bonfire oi old garden seed illuminated
the gloom and darknes of the drippmg
evening. Many of these would doubt
less have germinated, but the proprie
tors were resolved that their seed de
partment should be above snepicion-
and hence their wholesale cremation.
Now, Hereafter, farmer* and gardener-
may rest assured when they eoine in
quest of good sound “garden suss”
seed in Macon they will^get the Sim-
rrnn-pnre by calling upon Messrs.
Hunt, Rankin & Lamar.
Too often housekeepers lose an entire
season by depending upon spnrions
seeds for their car’y vegetables. And
onthiug is certainly more provoking.
The boys enjoyed the bonfire, and it
was astonishing how brightly and
fieicely the seeds burned.
