The climate of Georgia is tho best I ever saw.

Said Mr. Stephen A. Mills, of Hamilton, Ohio: "1 am Just from Bartow countyi and am a fixture in Georgia. 1 have found tho place that suits me and nm going homo to get ready to move hero.

If the excursion is properly Advertised, and a reasonable rate is mode bv the railroads, I am satisfied that tho next excur sion will be much larger than tho one that arrived hero a few days ago.

In an instant the furious beast was among tho children. With biasing eyes and foaming mouth ho snapped right and left. Ho fastened his fongs in little Eddie Ryan, William Lane, Patrick Reynolds, Austin Fltxgcrald, Hattie Frick and George Childs. Then ho sped down tho street, snarling and snapping at every thing in his way. Several spectators pursued tho nnimal with sticks and clubs, aud'ho was finally killed by running head foremost against the jagged iron front of a store.' It did not tnko long to ascertain that boyoud a doubt tho dog iiad the rabies. Tho alarm of tho parents of the bitten children bodies descrip tion. Tho feeling spread, and in twenty-four hours folly fifty towns had ordered the imme diate destruction of all dogs found running at largo without muzzles. , SENDIXQ THE CHILDREN TO TASTEDB. Collections have been taken up in many of tho Newark churches for tho purpose of de fraying tho expenses of sending tho children toPsrisfor treatment by Tastcur. Private contributions havo been Bent to Dr. O'Gorman in amounts ranging from $100 down to 10 cents, and many other contributions havo been received at newspaper offices. Tho amount rained was over $1,000, and every ar rangement was made for a comfortablo trip for tho children, who sailed Thursday, In charge of Dr. Billings, on tho steamship Canada. A special cabin was allotted to tho children. Mrs. Ryan, tho mother of ono of the bitten children, was sent with them to take care oi them on tho voyage, Tho children who were lent ore William Lano, tho telegraph messenger; little Eddie Ryan, Patrick Rey nolds, Bnd Austin Fitzgerald. Tho fathor of Hattie Frick refuses to send bin child, and it has been ascertained that George Childs was merely bruised by tho dog and not woundod by its fangs. rASTEUR RESPOSDS TO AN AFPE.U. In reply to a cablegram asking him if ho would treat tho children, U. Louis Pasteur, the celebrated scientist, at once replied aa follows: "If the parents aro Harmed send the children.??? Louis Fastiur. Dr. Pasteur???s method of curing hydrophobia can ho belt summarized in his own words: ???I began- my experiments in 1882 in this way,??? ho said. "I took a portion of tho spinal cord of a dog which had died of hydrophobia, and with that I inoculated a rabbit in tho first membrane of tho brain. It went mad In fifteen days. Then with a portion of tho spinal cord of this rabbit I Inoculated another rabbit In' tho samo way, and it went mad in thirteen days, and so on. I continued inoculations from rabbit to rabbit, finding tho strength of tho virus increased each timo until tho nine tieth, time produced hydrophobia in only seven days. I then took very small portions of tho spinel coTd of this ninetieth rabbit, and which contained tho greatest virulence yet obtained, mid I suspended thcso.bil?? atjrirus4n.cmpty bottles in which tho air was kept very dry by means of potash op tho bottom of tho bottle. After several days???- exposure to adry, cold tem perature tho vims loses nil its strength. Tho timo required for this loss depends on tho sizo of tho piece and the dryness and coldness of the air. Then of this vims which has lost its strength I tako a small por tion dissolved in sterilo bullion, and with a pravaz syringo I inoculate tho animal. Each day I inoculate it again with virus, juat a little stronger each time, until at last the system has become so accustomed to the poison that I can use tho virus which had not been dried at all, and which would produco hydrophobia in ???oven days if tho system had not been to treated to it by degrees.

FBEPABATIOXB FOB TUX TBIP. proposition was received from the Csrncgle laboratory of tho Bcllevao Hos pital medical college. It was mode by Andrew Carnegie, the founder of the laboratory, which is devoted to a lino of experiments similar to thoso of hi. Pasteur. Mr. .Camegio ottered to send one of tho professional investigators of tho institution in chargo of tho patients, and will pay bit expenses, in tho interest of science. Tho proposition was] submitted to Dr. O'Gonntn, and with it was an offer from. A. L. Dennis, a wealthy\ citizen of New ark, who agreed to make good any dofldoncy that might exist provided the propotltlon.was accepted. Into Wednesday evening Dr. O'Gorman re reived the following toiogram from L. D. Bob bin, agent of tho French line, to which tho Canada belongs: Here consulted ship???s doctor. Will havo special accommodations and special food for children on Canada. * Dr. O???Gorman said: ???Tho company has re duced tho prlco of passage to a nominal figure. We havo enough money now to provide tho children with every necessity. I think wo have in the neighborhood of $1,000.??? With the children was sent a portion of tho spinal cord of the dog that was kiliod, in order that U. Pasteur may use It to Inoculate a rabbit. SOMETHING ABOUT TUB CHILDREN. One of the children sent to Faria is Palsy Reynolds. He is a big man now. All of tho hoys in tho neighborhood, many of whom formerly boasted the proud ability to wallop him, ire now at bis feet. Six of them were gathered around the , yontbftil hero gtaing in awo upon him, and each hur riedly awaiting his turn to inspect Patsy???s badges of honor???the little black mark on tho back of tho left hand, and the other little mark on the left Index finger nude by the dog???s teeth and blackened by cauterization. Patsy won???t ho ten yean old until next June, but he looks older now, and since his adventure he has openly claimed to be going bn eleven. When courteously reminded by an admirer that he was a year younger only a little white ago, he said he guessed a man ought to know his own age. -Hetalkioftherecentoecurnaee aa bin "fight with a mad dog.??? But Patsy did not monopolize tho interest of Newark; nattie Frick got a lot of It. She it a email person, seven yeare old, very de mure, and frith a wondrous dark bang that re joins in a precision almost mathematical. Un derneath the hang shines a small foes with very big eyes and a very round month that ought to hsTC caused the small boys on the block???to develop a precocious interest , in the set of their jackets and the color of their era- vats. Hattie fa not going to Paris. Her tether keeps a barber shop in Patsy Reynold's street, llo is a German, quite an bid man, su'd; it was plain that tho barber shop would havo vory fow charms for him without Uattto around to holp fill it. He said it would make Hattio home sick to go as far as New York without her father, and Hattie quite broke down and wept nt tho thought. Her father said ahe didn't need to go to Fails, anyhow; tho teeth of tho dog heforc reaching her annhadpassed through a thick cloak, a thick dress, a thick wristlet, and various other complicated thicknesses, the .intricacies of which a German mother is best able to explain. Theso thicknesses had probably rubbed all -the poison from the dog???s teeth, and, anyhow, the-teeth had only bruised Hattie's arm, without penetrating tboficsk. William Lane is the oldest of tbft bitten children. He lives at lO^Johusou street, and works for the Municipal District messengor company. He was in tho office of the com pany yesterday in hte uniform; not working, hut receiving end entertaining tho friends of tho company ns they dropped in. He la four teen years old, lUtlcJand smart, and apparent lyWith a disposition to. bo ehcerful under tho cireumitauccs. Ho was bitten on tho right band and elbow quite severely, and proved with pride that his bites were tho worst of all, slnco the arm was entirely useless. He admitted regret folly that the hito on the elbow, al though every bad one, hod not bled much, but said hia hands hail bled very much indeed, He gave interesting details as to the amount of gore ho spread around the offico after tho ad venture. Lane's natural ftind of humor sparkled forth in his story; for ho spoko scorn fully of tho dog that would bite a tough, seaa- oued messenger llko himself, when there were so many green boys around; and nt tho same time commended tho judgment shown by the animal In choosing the right arm to oporato on. For ho is left handed, and able to write and attend to business tho samo aa before. About his trip to Paris young Laue was cheer- ill] and business-like. Ho thought it was ft good thing to tako a look at Europe, and ho had no objection to Paatonr. Anyhow it was bettor than working, ho said. Among tho hoys who were bitten Is Eddy Ryan, who is eight yoars old, and remarkably pretty. Ho seems to ho living in a stato of lingo entertainment. His namo had boon read to him from innnmenblo newspapers, and ho was proud???proud of having been bitten and proud of going to Europe. When called npou at four o'clock yesterday at bis resldonco in Union strut, Eddy was found revoling in tho glory of haring subduod his entire family. Ho had announced, as a matter of coune, that ho would not refumo his studies until alter hia return from Europe, and his pa rents had given in. Ho had announced hia belief that to comb a hoy???s hair too much was as apt to bring on hydrophobia ns anything elso, and his brown hair waved above his bead in triumphant disorder. As another mark of his supremacy ho had allowed only thcjtopjbutton of his shoes to be buttoned, aud was making rapid preparations to uphold hlitrousorswltha strap buckled around bis waist, Instead of by effeminate suspenders, Austin Fitzgerald la the last of tho interest ing children, and has probably sufl'ered more than any. ???He was severely bitten ?abont the arms and thigh, and naturally nervous, he has been frightened by the indiscreet conversation of theso around him. Ho dreams of being pursued by mad dogs, bis mother said, and on Friday night he had a peculiar spell that sho could not understand. Yesterday he lay stretched upon two chain, looking polo and thin.

Austin did cheer up, as ho was told to, and before long ho wont off to sleep on hia two chain, with a smilo which showed that hia dream had landed him at a little round cafe table on the Boulevard des Italions; and was treating him to ice cream and cream cakea. Mrs. Fitzgerald and her good-hearted friend watched tho smile and cried over it together. TREATMENT ON THE VOYAGE. Paris, December 11.???M.

In tho Northman Interesting Letter???Tho NezroBouth. . I see that some of tho Chicago preocliors havo held a meeting and denounced Quitman, Thoy said that unless Quitman rebuilt school house Quitman should be held up to tho execration of ail mankind. It seems that somebody set fire to tho negro school that northern money built in Quitman, and these preachers hold, Quitman responsible. When I picked up a New York paper aud uw the headlines, ???Tho preachers of Chicago de nounce Quitman,??? 1 thought it was some matter away over In Wyoming about tho killing spare moro Chinese or rnaybo somo matter about those northern chaps stcaliug the Indians??? lands, bnt I found it was our own llttlo town of Quitman, away down hero in Georgia, hsdent heard anything about tho fire thon. knew those good peoplo at Quitman, aud burnt mo all over to read about oxeeration ami condemnation and detcstatlou, and they would havo put in eternal damnation if they had spoken what they wished. The truth is thaw preachers were glad of another southern outrago to feed upon. They wore getting hungry. They like tho vittete. I havo noticed them for years and my opinion, my deliberate, well matured opinion is that tho northern republican preachen are bad eltlaens, especially those from Chicago. Thoir Iovols adulterated with kato aud their charity with revenge. I wouldn???t trust them to point tho road to heaven no moro than I would trust a Spanish inquisition that used the rack and tho wheel and torture as a means of conversion. They know nothing about Quitman or her peo ple, nothing about tho negro or ills relations to tho white race. They kuow nothing about tho south and believe nothing except what they read in their own politloal papers, end yet they teach their peoplo to do- spiso us.

That would cure him; it used to in the old slavery days, and it will yah Ono 1 whipping is enough for little pilfering chickens or a dollar or fifty cents.
