Wednesday, July 7, I860.
Tiik following communication was received
lute last evening from His Excellency Governor
Bullock, and we thank him for it; end we pub
lish the same for the purpose of showing the in
justice done by the Constitution:
KXerPTIVS DirABTMKT STATE Of GkORUIA, 1
Atlanta. Ga., July 2, lstyi. f
lion. J. I. Whitaker, Atlanta :
Dear Hir:—This evening's edition of the
< 'onstilution contain? the following paragraph:
“It is rumored that Gov. Bullock is negotiating
the purchase of the Atlanta Intelligencer.”
Aud I deem it an act of justice to yourself lor
ine to say that the rumor is not well founded.
Very respectfully,
Kipcs B. Bullock.
“PreMDi JournalUui.’’
The New York Sun, says our neighbor ol the
Constitution on yesterday, “makes the following
r< flections upon the demise of the (National)
Intelligencer, in which, says the Constitution.,
there is a good deal of truth : ”
“It is a somewhat singular coincidence I hat
the death of Mr. Raymond which leaves such a
great blank in one direction in American jour
nubs in, has been followed by the demise ot the
National Intelligencer, which leaves a blank in
another direction.”
“Judging Irom the gradual disappearance ol
these old landmarks, and the astonishing sue
eess of The Sun, which shines for all, we con

ft will no donbt be a more brilliant era than
i list which dewed, infusing greater literary
genius aud artistic grace, and originality and
rapidity of thought, and tersenees aud pic

and relieving them ol ponderous prolixity, ma

nocerous Bom bastes Furioso style which con
trihuted so much toevenom the disease thai cul

And so peace to his old ashes.”
Not a word of truth do we see, nor will an
appreciative public see in the foregoing bcpz< n
laced laudation of the Sun's own style of jour
nalism—a style which it says “shines tor all
and, we will add, stinks tor all. No two papers
published in this continent were conducted with
more vigor and ability, that were the New Yoik
Times under ils late editor, and the Nation-
Intelligencer lor yean previous to its demise, and
lor hail a century betore under Gales and Sea

under its late conduct lully sustained its ancient
reputation, and by good men, patriots and states

country; while tbe former, in iact both ot tLcm

Tbe (Jiilverally ol Georgia.
«Ve have been favored with the lollowiug copy
ol the Report of tbe Board of Visitors re
cently appointed by His Excellency Governor
ilut.i.ocK to attend the “Examination Exercises'
of tbe State University at Athens. We have
always iclt a deep interest in this institution ; in
past days when its condition was prosperous
and since, in the new era, when clouds lowered
upon it, none of that interest hath departed
from us. Still, more from the fact that our at
teution lias been directed, by circumstances, to
other matters, than from the lack of disposition
on our part to note tbe progress of the Institu
lion, we have not adverted to it as was our wont
previous to the war, nor do we believe that the
press of our State has done so. It aflords us
therefore now, in view to this neglect, great
. pleasure to publish the following report. It is
tbe first report, we believe, of any of its “Boards
of Visitors,” a copy of which has been submit
tod to us for publication. As will be seen from
the signatures 10 the report, the “Board” was
composed of “gentlemen and scholars,” fully
(pialifled to pass correct judgment upon the
made of tuition as well as the proficiency made
by the students of the University in their varied
.studies. The report is a highly complimentary
one to both Facultv and Students, while the
suggestions which it embraces are worth the se-
lious and lavorahle consideration ol the General
Assemby ol our State, which, we trust, it will
receive when it again convenes. The establish
ment of such “schools of applied science” as is
rcommended in the report, cannot but receive
the approval ol “thoughtful Georgians.” Tbe
expense would be a mere nothing, compared to
the benefits which would accrue to the State in
her rapid march onward to recover her former
prestigo ot being the “Empire State of tbe
South," and to a prosperity which “the signs ot
t le times ’ indicate plainly she has never before
reached.
report.
Atlanta, July 1,1869.
Mis Rccollency, Governor Mullock :
Sir : The undersigned, appointed by your
Excellency as members of the Board ot Visitors,
t<; attend the final examination of the gradua
ting class of the State University, respectfully
submit the following report.
The Board entered upon its duties with an
honest intention to make a faithful report as to
the subjects committed to them, giving praise,
or censure, as tither might be deserved. This
was deemed especially neceesaiy as while there
has been much interest in, there has been much
ignorance as to the condition of the University
siuce the war. We confess as Georgians that
the result of our examination has surprised, as
much \s it has gratified us.
The mode of examination in the University
has undergone an entire change. Formally it
was oral and in many respects objectionable.—
Now it is wliolly written. The young men of
the graduating class are assembled in the exam-
i cation room. They are required to give a
pledge ot honor that they do not know the
questions to be propounded. They are not
allowed to converse, or to leave the room. They
are allowed lrom tarn, to 1 p. m., to write
their answers. No books are permitted. These
questions were extremely full, as will appear
from the printed copies, which we have the
honor herewith to submit in connection with
this report.
The answers covered from twelve to twenty-
three pages <4 foalacap paper. An examination
more fair, honest, and thoroughly searching,
lias never been witnessed by us. The examina
tion evinced a thorough acquaintance with the
curriculum ot the Uuiveraity which is a full
academic aud literary coarse; a wider scope ot
literary culture than we have before seen on
similar occasions; a higher grade of average
scboltuship and a most remarkable f&cilly ot
writing on demand, combined with fluency and
accuracy of expression with the pen, an ac
quirement ol great value to tbe student. The
examination eviuced one iact vital to the pros-
jjerity ol literary institutions, the existence ol
an “euteiute c. rdiale” between the Professors
and students, a fact which alone can account lor
ttie accurate and varied scholarship as welt as
the quiet, order,and gentlemanly deportment ol
the pupils. The chairs of Rhetoric and Modern
Languages have been recently filled by gentle
men eminent in these departments. The faculty
us now organized is one ot singular ability and
zeal.
As a result of this visit, and after laborious
examination into the whole details ot the Uni
versity, the Board take great pleasure in giving
it as their opinion, that, so far as sound morals,
moderation in expense, and completness ot edu
cation lor literary and professional lile, are in
volved, no Institution on this continent and very
few in Europe offers greater inducements than
our State University. We see no reason why a
single youth of Georgia should be sent out ot
tbe State to obtain the form ot education to
which we have referred.
The institution is now working to its utmost
capacity. Yet, while the literary, academic and
scientific courses are tall and complete, we are
pained to conless that the University is neces
sarily deficient in the means of applying the
sciencies to tbe wants and emergencies of tlie^
present day. We need educated merchants,
farmers, engineers, miners and mechanics. The
present funds of the University will not allow
such an application of science. The board can-
not jeirain from expressing to your Excellency
raest desire, and, as they believe, the
desire ol thoughtful Georgians generally,
establishment of several schools of ap-
science by the State, For instance, a
school of science applied to manufacturing,
mechanics and mining,at Atlanta; a commer
cial school involving the principles ot commer
cial law at Augusta or Macon; and a school of
agriculture at some healthful and eligible loca
tion. We have already a school of engineers at
Athena It is believed that the cities would
fuinifali a large portion, if not all of tbe funds
necessary to inaugurate these several schools.—
All of these schools to be under tbe general
supervision ot tbe Chancellor of tbe University
and through him of the State. An annual ex
hibilion ot the result of the training in these
schools before the Legislature, would not only
inform the State of the progress of its youth
but would bring tbe University in all its depart
ments into active and ultimate union with tbe
people of Georgia.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

The Marietta Journal Bays the “Confederate

Fourth of July — The
Plrnlc.
This national holiday will be celebrated as
usual throughout the North, East, and West,
and why it should not he iu the South, as it was
tn the olden time, is a question which we shall
uot discuss. To-day, it again dawns npon the
country, ushering in the ninety-fourth year of
American Independence from British thraldom.
No demonstrations have been made in this city
for its celebration, and we know of no event
that will occur on to-morrow—the day ot its
usual Ciltbration when it occurs ou the Sabbath
— save the “Printers’ Picnic,” that would in
terfere with the regular issue of this paper on
Tuesday morning next. That event, tor which
extensive preparations have been made, ami
which, we tiust, will prove recreative to the
craft will cause a suspension ot Tuesday
morning's issue of this paper. Our readers, we
leel sure, will submit to this deprivation with
cheerfulness. Printers, like others, must have
their holiday, and as the Superintendent ot the
State Road, has kindly afforded them facilities
to enjoy themselves in an excursion up the rosd,
they will right gladly avail themselves of the
opportunity to do so.
From the Rome Hri-Weekly Conner.
A llcroic Boy.
Quite a sensation was created in the lower
end of Broad Street od last Thursday afternoon,
by the startling rumor that Mr. Roberson, who
was engaged in digging a well for tbe City
Sexton, ou Cemetery Hill, had fallen into the
well, and was probably killed. A number of
gentlemen went with all possible speed to the
scene of excitement, to know the truth of the
rittnir, and to render what service they could
in extricating the unfortunate victim.
They iound a man lying in the bottom of a
well between twenty aDd thirty feet deep, in
which gas had accumulated until it could be
plainly seeu, like a blue smoke, from the top,
but no one could tell whether the man was
alive or not Ali felt impressed with tbe idea
that something had to be done immediately,
but there were three dangers staring them in
tbe face. In the first place, it was necessary
for some one who bad never been in a well be
fore, to go down; and then the certain pres
ence and danger ot the gas, and the last and
not tbe least danger, was from tbe blast that
had just been prepared and fire thrown
in. There was one present who
was ready for the emergency—a little b»y
—son ot Mr. R, 12 or 13 years old. He begged
Col. J. R Towers, who was one of the first to
arrive, and who rendered very effectual and
timely aid, to let him down. This was done
immediately by tying a rope around tbe boy’s
body. Tbe boy carried a rope in his hand, which
he tied around eis father’s body, just below bis
arms, and both father and son were drawn out
—the former in a perfect helpless and insensable
condition; in tact, tbe presence of life was
scarcely visible. But he begun gradually to re
vive, and in an hour or two he was restored to
consciousness, and was able to sit up.
Mr. RaberSon went into the well to see why
tbe fire be threw in did not explode the blast
that he had prepared. He was immediately
overcome by the gas, and called to his little son
to have him drawn out. Mr. Stafford, the City
Sexton, was at work a few hundred yards off,
and ran as fast as be w«s able to the relief of the
little boy, but when be got tllere Mr. R. was

hardly able to speak. <(|Jhe tub was let down
Mr. R. gdt on, and theyarew him eight or ten
leet from the bottom, 'when lie fainted and tell
back. But as above stated, lie was snatched
from the jaws of death by the presence of mind
and the heroic pxertions of his glonocs little
son, whose name is Arthur Roberson.*
Tbe Late Battle In Cuba.
Dispatches received in Washington from Cuba
give further-particulars of tbe fight near Puerto
del Padre, between the Cubans under General
Marmol, and the Spaniards under General Fer
rer. The victory of the Cubans was complete.
They captured an extensive train, containing
large amount of provisions, arms, ammunition
clothing, and hospital stores. The loss of the
Spaniards was fiver one hundred killed,
number of Americans participated in the fight.
Other fcite accounts from Cuba are as follows
Cubans V Washington received this merning
advices up to the 18th instant, which confirm
previous reports ot the prevalence of cholera
and yellow fever among the Spanish troops.
The mortality is said to be very great. In sev
eral portions ol the Island their line of commu
nication is cut off, and they are suffering for
want of food and medicine. The Spanish army
has lost, since the commencement of the revo
lution, more than halt their force in battle and
by disease and desertion. Tbe Spaniards have
been concentrating in tbe Cina Villas district,
and collisions are of almost daily occurrence.
The reinforcements which were sent lrom Car-
nasuey attacked the Cubans, and were defeated.
They were compelled to retreat with a loss ot
over three liundre d killed and wounded. The
loss ot the Cubans was less than one hundred
The Cuban forces irom Jacquey Grande attacked
the Spaniards near Palmidas, deleated a large
force of regulars and volunteers, and captured
that town, with the provisions and arms which
were stored there. The expedition which landed
at Nuevas Grande succeeded in joining the main
body of the Cuban army with but little diflicul
ty. It numbered 600 men, all in good health
and spirits. The Cuban army is said to be in
good fighting condition, and the leaders are de
termined to follow up their recent victories, and
are confident of success. They have, as yet
suffered but little from disease, as they occupy
elevated and healthy positions some distance
lrom tbe coast.
Red Pepper.
Clerks must beware of red pepper. The re
cent robbery of a jewelry store in Boston was
effected by blinding the only clerk in attendance
with red pepper, a repetition of a very old way
of plundering shops without fear of pursuit.—
The thieves used to employ Scotch snuff. The
use ol pepper seems to be an improvement
upon the snuff process. Robbery is a science
now, that’s certain.
The robbery was thus affected: “A well
dressed man entered tbe jeweliy store of Josiah
Gooding, in Washington street, Boston, yester
day, and while examining some jewelry, sud
denly threw red peper in the eyes of the clerk
Mr. Goodwin’s son, who was alone in the store,
and ran off with about two thousand dollars’
worth of diamond riDgs.”
The Cherokeea and the Creeks.
Inspector-General Marcy, on the condition of
the Indian tribes West, reports that the Cbero-
kees and Creeks are doing well on tlieir reserva
tions, and that where the Indians have been al
lowed to hold their lands, they are all doing
well. We are glad to hear that the descendants ol
the original possessois of the soil of Georgia
are in the condition they are reported to be.—
l’tiey were a brave people and held on to the
soil that was theirs until might and “civiliza
tion" overpowered and dispossessed them of it.
How man}’ of them survive the glory of their
neestuis, we should like to kuow.

Daniel E. Sickles, the new minister to Spain
Politically, socially, and in every other way, it
is down upon Dan. The article is designed as
a parting salute, and is a loathsome expose ol
the frailties and vices of the maD, closing as
follows:
“ Tbe men who may be compelled to en
counter Sickles abroad, and who will have the
right to point him out as of the sort of meD
whom the American people delight to honor,
shall not t ve the right to say that he was so
highly honored and lffs country so deeply de-
f railed without at least odc indignant protest.
t is Sickles’s fault, not ours, if this is a shame

under it, let him relieve himself and us by re
tiring to a penitent privacy. Shame on him lor
accepting what ought to be the achievement of
an honest and an useful life, aud double shame
on Graut for giving it to him.”

The Crop* In Souibn«Mern Georgia.
The Albany News, ot the 2d instant, says ot
the growing crops in that prolific section of our
State, that “fine seasons continue in this section,
aud crops are doing well. Many planters re
port their eorn beyond a casualty, and as good
as ever grew. Cotton is all that the most greedy
could desire, but its trying ordeals are to come
yet. A wet summer, the worm, or the caterpil-
ler, may prove disastrous to the present splendid
prospect.”
Women Suffrage.
The-New York Depress sa^-s that the women
suffrage tolk are making the 'greatest efforts to
Bocurc a rousing attendance at the Convention,
which is to be held in Saratoga on the 13th and
14th of this month. It seems, too, that a Geor
gia woman has entered the field in advocacy
of the movement At a recent meeting held in
New York, a “Mis* Upham, of Georgia,” ap
peared as a speaker, and thus eloquently ex
pressed herself. She announced herself “as a

Beecher on the Press.—In l.is address at
the funeral of Mr. Raymond, hist Monday, Rev.
Henry VVaid Beecher used the following lan
guage of the press:
The lawyer has a narrow sphere before him ;
the senator aud the representative—.he walls
fudge in their voices; the minister has his parish
walls about his church. But there is a pulpit
that now has no limit—it is the press. There is,
literally, tbe voice ot one that cries in the wil
derness; tor all across the populous land, oat
into the territories, and to the very Pacific
ocean, the daily pajicrs sp«ab ; and there is not,
in modern civilization, a piaee of power that
can compare with' this.
“Old Fayette.*’
It will be seen in our advertising columns
that under the recently appointed Ordinary tor
Fayette county, the ordere, notices, and so forth,
emanating from that officer will be published as
heretofore in the Intelligencer. The former
Ordinary of Fayette, Col. E. Connol—one of
tbe most efficient of that class of officers in our
State, was one of onr oldest and fast friends^
and used the columns ot this journal lor all his
official publications. In the person of our young
friend—Mr. David G. Minor—that good old
county has a worthy successor to the old Ordina
ry. He is the son of an ancient Mend and pub
lisher—one to whom the credit whs given of be
ing the first editor in the Union to hoist the name
ot Andrew Jacks&n at the mast head of his
paper as a candidate for President. Our old
friends in Fayette will remember this, as they
will the paper which he conducted in Fayette
ville in far better days than th0* present, when
more of principle and less of policy prevailed
in the conduct ol the press. Tbe son, who now
holds the office of Ordinary in the County where
his father was so well known and bighiy es
teemed, for his integrity and moral woith, is a
worthy son of an honest sire, whom we con
gratulate upon his appointment.

they may select, and on such day as they may

The proprietors ot the different publications
and printing offices of tbe city, and those m
their employ, in accepting the invitation
kindly and generously extended them by Col.

Vining’s Station as the point, for the picnic.
All who go are requested to carry their baskets
well filled. The brass and string band will be
in attendance. Tbe train will leave Messrs.
Glenn, Wright & Can’s, at 8:50, A. M., and re
turn at 5:50, P. M.
Dust.—Our attention has been directed two or
three times to the condition of certain parts of
Whitehall, Broad, Hunter and Marietta streets,
In certain localities on these streets it is exceed-
iy unpleasant to walk on account of tbe dust
and dirt which is continually being carelessly
sifted from wagons, while being carted from lots
where preparations are being made for building.
In excavatinglhe dirt, we know that necessarily
persons will find it inconvenient walking imme
diately by a lot where the work is going on, but
we think that in moving the dirt lrom these lots
health, comfort, pleasure aud the goods in the
stores do not require such, a sifting of dust
through the streets as we have. Parties mov
ing tlie dirt should be required to procure tight
er bodies to their carts.
Peachtree Bridge.—We had a pleasant
ride yesterday atternoon with the courteous and
energetic Ordinary of Fulton county, Judge
Daniel Pittman, out to Peachtree Creek. We
are gratified to state to our up country friends
that under the efficient management ol Judge
Pittman, the bridge has been thoroughly over
hauled and repaired, and that it can now be
crossed with perfect safety. Under the contract
made by Judge Pittman, the bridge has been
made secure and at a Comparatively small cost,
Ne\v Enterprise.—The citizens of Walker,
Chattooga, and Floyd, stimulated by the pro
gressive character of our State, are putting on
foot an enterprise which promises success, and
will be of untold value to the rich, loomy valleys
of those counties. It is the building of a rail
road lrom Rome to Chattanooga by way ot
Summerville and Trion Factory. W e predict
its success. What an advantage would such
road be to our city.—North Georgia Citizen.
Shoes.—Messrs. Force & Co. have received a
fresh supply of infants’ shoes, and ankle ties of
all colors and sizes. These gentlemen have ac
quired an enviable position in our community
tor the beauty, elegance, comfort, and durability
of the stock kept by them; besides, they are
gentlemen whose attentiveness to their patrons
and^ courteous manners are sure to secure a se
cond visit to their establishment after they have
been called upon once.
Personal.—We had the pleasure of meeting
with the Hon. B. H. Hill, on yesterday. Mr. H.
informed us that he had just been down on his
plantations in Lee, Dougherty, and we believe
Baker; that he will make corn sufficient to do
him for two years; that his hands are all work
ing well; and that his prospect for a fine cotton
crop is very flattering; and that the crops gen
erally down the country are promising.
Charity.—We trust that our readers will
overlook locals this exceedingly warm weather;
we assure them that we have never found local
news so scarce ; our citizens more quiet; tbe
dust as unpleasant; ice creams more desirable ;
soda water more sought alter ; paper collars so
worthless ; nor have we at any time during the
summer found the sun doing its level best in the
way of shining hot than on yesterday.

Death of “Willis.”—There is not a mr.n
among the survivors of Anderson’s Georgia
Brigade but will receive with profound sorrow
tlie tidings of this man’s death, which took
place in this city yesterday. As the personal
servant ol Gen. “Tige” AndersoD, “Willis”
shared the perils ot that battle-scarred brigade
tor f»ur years in Virginia, and was among the
* lailhiui” who ale parched corn with it up to the
final hour when its colors wore Juried at Appo
mattox Court House. Especially by the staff
of the General is he kindly remembered, though
not an officer or private of the command now
living, bat edn call to mind some generous act,
or good service, that was rendered at some time
by “Willis” during the eventful lour years. He
was faithful to every trust reposed in him, and
the fidelity of “Willis” to Gen. Anderson knew
no abatement save in tjeaih. He was the soul
of humor, and not the rigors of a Virginia win
ter, or tbe burning heat of summer, or hanger
in camp or on tbe march, or battle-field dangers,
or any vicissitude ot life, could dampeu that
humor. Added to this were many of the origi
nalities and peculiarities of bis race. His ianits
were lew. Peace to bis ashes and may his soul
reast in Heaven.

more satisfactory. We understand that there

ensuring Commencement. This is the largest
Senior Class which the University has ever had.

dle ; Old Dog Tray; Let the Merry Church

mind the most excellent work, inquires for you
in another column, to know if you are seeking
watches, clocks, jewelry &c. Mr. Bollman is
well and favorably known for the superiority
and excellence of all work done by him.
W. Astcr.—One of the New York papers
stated a lew days since that Astor’s annual in
come is over $1,000,000, and it is said thath< »

a very cold melon jii3t from the Ice.
Mr. Emory will receive lresh watermelons

Keep Cool.—During these hot clays there is
nothing that will contribute to a person’s com
fort more than one of Holbrook’s Hats with the
patent Railroad buckle. Go and try one.
Heat.—At 2^ o’clock on yesterday in the
drug store of Messrs. Redwine & Fox, the
thermometer was at 924 deg.
Corn.—This article is becoming scaice, and
in good demand in our market.

Real Estate.—Messrs. Wallace & Fowler
will sell the McMillen property on Wednesday-

Sun Stroke.—There was a case of sun stroke
in the city on yesterday.
Accident.—Henry Harris, a colored man,
had his left leg so mangled on the West Point
Road on yesterday as to make it necessary to
amputate it. Dr. L. H. Orine performed the
operation.
Dr. Foster.—We learn with pleasnre that
this gentleman is already having a large prac
tice. He has some of our oldest and best citi
zens under his treatment. His offices are in
the Empire Block on Whitehall street.
The Western & Atlantic Ratlroad.—We
are gratified to announce that the above road

We are satisfied that by this excellent arrange
ment travel over this route this summer will be
greatly increased.
Real Estate Sales.—As no paper will be
issned from this office on Tuesday morning, we
call attention to the tact that Col. Adair will sell
at 5 o’clock on Tuesday, on the west side of
Broad street, a lot 80 by 55.
Public Installation.—The officers of Cen
tral Lodge No. 28, I. O. O. F., for the ensuing

ing next, at Odd Fellows’ Hall. By invitation,
Col. J. S. Boynton, of Warren Lodge No. 28,
of Griffin, Ga., will deliver an address. Public
invited to attend.
Errata.—In our notice on yesterday of the
recently appointed Ordinary of Fayette county,
there were two errors—instead ol “ David C ”
it appeared as printed, David Q. Minor, and in
stead ol “son,” it should have been grandson of
the old Editor of the McDonough Jacksonian,
aud Fayetteville Advertiser, Samuel Wright
Minor.
Nuisances.—We dislike very much ever te
mar the sports and amusements of boys, but we
have been requested to say to them that they
most not roll hoops on the streets; in fact the
officers have been instructed to arrest any of
them found doing so.
A horse became frightened by one of these
hoops a day or two since, ian away, and broke
the buggy he wes attached to, injuring a gentle
man, who was in the buggy, very much.
Poor Show.—A diluted extract of the Va
rieties, which recently played out in Atlanta,
performed several nights in Athens since onr
last. It was running as a Hungarian Troupe,
and was decidedly a hungry looking concern.—

F. F. Coulter has been elected President, and
V. DunuiDg, Secretary■; J. M. Born, R. A. Pitt

Watermelon.—We acknowledge our in
debtedness to “Pease.” lor the large, and sweet
melon, kindly sent us yesterday afternoon.
Mr. Pease keeps a good supply of melons all
the time, lresh, and at reasonable prices.
Exhibition.— On Friday the young ladies
from the School ot lire Sisters ot Charity had
an exhibition at tlie City Hall.' Quite a large
audience was iu attendance. There was a very
appropriate address irom Bishop Verot, " ho
presided. Crow us were conferred tor exem
plar}’conduct, upon Misses. Lynch, O Brien,
Taylor, Moreland, Young, Butt, Small, Quinn,
and Gardner. The exercises were exceeiiingty
creditable to all.

It will be perceived that a
, larger list ol
mor-
lality is reported for the quarter just termina
ted than for the corresponding ones of 1867 and
1868.
This may be partially the result ol the rapid
influx of population into the city, within the
past few months.
For some months so unusual a number ot cases
of “still born” offsprings, particularly among
the colored population, have been observed, that
suspicion as to tlie offense of antenatal infanti
cide might have been excited,but for the knowl
edge of the habits aud the want of proper care
on the p irt of those to whom reference is made.
J. N. Simmons,
Chairman Board ol Health.
State University.—The following awards
of honors have been made in the senior class ot
the University. First Honor.—W. S. Bean, Au
gusta; W. R. Hammond, Atlanta; M. Guyton,
Laurens county. Second Honor.—H. B. Van
Epps, Atlanta. Third Honor.—J. L. White,
Forsyth. Speakers Chosen for Scholarship.—F.

thenian Speakers.—B. Barrow, Athens; H. H.
Cabaniss, Forsyth. Phi Kappa Speakers.—H.
B. Bounell, Macon ; W. M. Finley, Montgom
ery, Ala.
Baptized.—A little boy Svas washed and
dressed one morning and sent to Sabbath school,
being warned not to pass the small pox hospital.
During the exercises the teacher asked George
if he had ever been baptized. Small pox and
vaccination happening to be uppermost in
George’s mind, aud beiug rather too young to
know the difference between baptized and vac
cinated, and being ashamed to be thought igno
rant, promptly answered, yes sir, I have been
baptized six times, but it never took.—Democrat.
Thanks.—Yesterday we received a very hand
some demijohn of most excellent whisky, with
the following card : “ Coinplimenta of M. E
Kenny to the Press ot Atlanta in honor of their
Picnic.” The card speaks tor itself, and bears
evidence as to the liberal and generous-hearted
gentleman who presides over the Chicago Ale
Depot, No. 14 Alabama street. It is a pleasure
to know Kenny, and one greatly intteased by
visiting him at his airy, commodious, and clean
ly first class house. It is a treat to look upon
his happy tace, and if you visit him as a cus
tomer, he secures your approval by his judg
ment, experience, and capability. Kenny’s is
fixed institution, known lor its superior, im
ported liquors, its fine cigars, excellent ales, its
liberality and fair dealing, all of which has won
a patronage as prosperous to its owner as it was
well earned. We again thank Mr. Kenny for
his kindness—for the compliment he shall be re
membered in its use—and for his appreciation of
tbe press. May his deeds of kindness be stereo
typed here on earth; and may his form, when it
goes to press, for the last time, be mourned over
by those whose sorrows are golden; as to the
press, he stands justified before them.
Messrs. Pemberton, Wilson, Taylor & Co,
Among the many attractive business houses in
our city, we desire to direct attention to the
centrally and conspicuously located building of
the above gentlemen, which is located on Peach
tree and Decatur streets. It is large and com
plete in all its departments. We take pleasure
in calling attention to their card in to-day’s
paper. This house keeps well supplied with
everything to be found in a first class house, and
with Mr. W. J. Land, an experienced chemist
in their laboratory, we are acquainted with no
establishment better qualified for patronage. In
the house are popular and practical chemists aud
druggists; while their rooms are fitted up very
handsomely. The shelving is tastefully and
artistically arranged, causing it to present
an attractive and rich appearance. Their Soda
Font adds very much to the finish and general
attractions of this large house, while the showy
cases, with their varied fancy articles serve to
complete an establishment ornamental to the
city.
Messrs. Pemberton, Wilson, & Taylor are
thoroughgoing business men, and are too favor
ably and widely known for us to attempt now
any commendation of their high and well de
served standing.
Local.—“The Era of the Tongne,” is the
heading of a leader in one of the Baltimore
papers. We do not refer to the article to speak
of it—nor shall we allude to it again. If “gab,’
is tbe fault of our people, it is a difficult matter
to correct those whose ears are deaf to every
thing else but their own speech. Silence is a
great thing, Ulysess, could command his tongue
not to speak, his eyes not to weep, and his heart
not to pant. Mi tellus being asked about the
intended inarch of his army, replied : If I
thought that my shirt, were privy to this secret,
I would pull it off aud throw it into the fire. |
Philip wrote to the Spartans— If once I enter j
into your Territories, I will destroy ye all, never
to rise agaiD,” and they only answered him
“II” Even the geese, as th e y took their flight
out of Cilicia, over tbe mountain Taurus
which was filled with eagles, are said to have
carried a big stone in their bills, to retain their
gargling. By this means they crossed the
dreaded place undisterbed.
We have often heard the old adage, “a bird in
the hand” it might be, that he who lets a bird
go out of bis band does not easily catch her
again, neither can a man recall i word he lets
slip from his month, for it takes wings and flies.
Men should moie often ask themselves what
good shall I get by speaking; or what mischief
shall I bring about by bolding my tongue ? If
there is nothing profitable in talking, nothing
necessary to be Baid that others should hear,
nothing of satisfaction or delight, what need is
it then it should bespoken? Words may often
be. in vain, injurious, or tone purpose, as well
as deeds. Simonides said, and we would act
wisely to b( ar the saying in remembrance, that
he who is given to talk, has many times an oc
casion to re pent him of his words, but never he
that can hold his tongne. A still longue, accor
ding to an old adage, denotes a wise head—and
just now our people should remember that there
is an expressive silence, which is invincible. In
our section of country we burn daylight by talk
ing-using the faculty ot speech is not what we
need. We cannot defend the government, and
we cannot injure it by talking, so we must grin
and bear it—exert ourselves to amelioraie
our condition — give up the idea ot
waiting for something to turn up, but let us turn
up something that will beuetit the country, and
promote its agriculture, commerce, manufacto
ries, aud inventions. The South is full ol riches,
but man must work to obtain tbem. We must
cease talking of great operations, of dreaming
of fortunes, of owning bank corners like James’.
The profits of its owner came not by murmuring
or wishing, but by diligence and industry. The
government may have done much to injure us,
still we have left us stout hearts aud strong
arms, forests and shady grovc-s, green and wav
ing foliage, sparkling stream’ets whose wattrs
travel through grassy meadows, fragrant with
flowers; we have granite, gold, irou, marble ;
yea, Georgia Is full of germs, and instead . f
talking over Supreme Court decisions, which we
caunot help ; or what Congress will do, which
we cannot prevent; let us eschew all such, and
develope Georgia's germs, and there is scarcely
a limit to which the hand ot industry, ot skill,
and of labor, may not bear tbe powers ot na
ture.
