UNION & RECORDER, Milledgeville, Juke 15, 1886. On Saturday last additional coun ties selected delegates to the guberna torial convt n‘ion. The Macon Tele graph, after embodying the result in its table of delegate's, thus far chosen, reports the number of Bacon votes at 44 and the anti-Bacon votes at 02. The anti-Bacon votes, however, are not all for Gordon, 6 from Burke conntv alone being for J. J. Jones. Gordon it is to be noted made a gain of eight votes on Saturday last. The Macon Telegraph says that owing to the amount of flint rock through which Mr. Clay ■ has been steadily boring for the past month, the artesian well at the park will be abandoned. It says however that a large number of citizens desire to have a well sunk on Poplar street, near the City Halland several citizens have informed mayor Price that they will contribute to a well in that locality. They do not anticipate any difficulty in going down at that point and the Mayor will call upon the subscribers to the park well and if the money can be made up the work will be underta ken. Defeat of the Home Ri le Bill. —Mr. Gladstone's Home Rule Bill was defeated in the House of (com mons at the 2nd vote on the 7tli. we need not go into any long argument on the subject. The truth is the ma jority are afraid to trust the Irish With*Home Rule. We have frequent ly presented our views on the subject and there is nothing new' to say. Mr. Gladstone has appealed to the Parliament to give justice to Ireland. The noisy mob in the Parliament have succeeded in defeating the meas ure bv the lowest and meanest appeals to the members. The next step will be Mr. Gladstone's appeal to the peo ple of England. We believe he will succeed with them. The majority of the English people will not be afraid to take a step within wdiicli virtue and rational liberty will find a majori ty of supporters. The question is in- teresting to all good men and patri ots and there are enough to sustain the great old man in his holy cause. Tin- vote was for the Bill 311, against* it 341. _ Death of Me. E. E. Browx.— The Macon Telegraph of Sunday last announced the death of Mr. Elipha- kt E. Brown, which occurred the day before at the residence of his daugh ter. Mrs. Kibbee in Macon. This gentleman had been a resident of Macon since 1820. and was a most useful and honored citizen of that place. The Telegraph gives a con densed history of his life in which he ir shown to have been a gallant sold ier in the Seminole war of 1830. being it member of the Macon Volunteers, and to have been specially compli mented by Gen'l. Winfield Scott for “an extraordinary feat of gallantry, hardship and danger.” He was for a number of years a merchant in Ma con and was the projector and pro prietor of the noted ‘Brown House,’ near the passenger depot. He lived the life of a useful aud honored citi zen and his death, which occurred at the age of seventy-three, will be a source of general and sincere regret to his fellow-citizens. His family losses bv death have been severe, but a son and tive daughters yet remain of what wa>- once a large family. A Remarkable Mortuary Report. —The Health Officer’s mortuary re port for the week that closed Friday is calculated to attract attention and excite comment. The report showg that the entire number of deaths was 51. The number of deaths of white people was 0 and of colored people 35. Of the colored people 33 were children under 10 years of age. Of the white people 5 were children un der 10 years of age. The death rate per 1,000 per annum was 12.10 forthe white and 122.04 for the colored peo ple. This death rate among the colored children is something remarkable. It suggests the question, why is it that There is such a great difference be tween the death rates of the white and colored children? The colored children are not as well cared for as the white children are, but is the dif ference in the death rate wholly dueto the difference in the care bestowed up on the children of the two races. There is no epidemic prevailing among the children of either race. Measles were The cause of the death of seven of the colored children, but the nwud>er of deaths from any oilier disease wn>- not above four. The number of deaths among the colored people was almost eight times ie great as that among the white people, or. as the report shows, that the colored death rate was ten times as great as the white death rate.—Sa vannah News. Card loving circles have a new game, which bids fair to pin progressive euchre to the wall. It is decidedly : the jolliest game of cards yet inven- | ted. It is called ‘'Hearts,' and is i somewhat similar to whist, except that the essential element of the game is to have no hearts left in your hand or in the tricks that you may have captured at the conclusion of the game. The cards are dealt as in whist; suit must be followed. There is no trump—the idea of each player being to get rid of all the hearts he may have and avoid being compelled to take in any of his neighbors. In the effort to do this consists the fun. Any w hist player can see how easily he can be loaded up with his neighbor’s hearts if he have long suits of other cards or high cards of any kind. At the conclusion of the playing the pla\ er who has been saddled with the few est hearts rakes in the pot, which is a chip for each heart—or thirteen in all One beauty of the game is that, unlike whist, one can chatter and talk am. the dreadful struggle to avoid capturing hearts leads to no end of merriment. Poetry or no Poetry. An anonymous writer has sent us by the mail some verses on the death of that beloved Christian and faithful laborer in liis Master’s cause, the Rev. Dr. J. C. Evans. The verses indicate a reverential love for the deceased that is most commendable in the wri ter, but the latter is evidently a no vice in the matter of writing poetry and it would take much more time and labor to correct the lines and put them in shape for publication than we can devote to such a purpose. Those who attempt to write poetry shouldremember that the lines should have some regularity as regards their length—or the number of accented svllables they contain and that when it is attempted to make the lines rhyme in some verses, it should he done in those that follow. The mere writing of four lines, and commenc ing each with a capital letter, with out regard to their length—saying nothing of their sentiment and mean- ing-is far from writing poetry. Very few', perhaps not one in a hundred of the ordinary readers of a newspa per, are capable of writing a piece of poetry, which would be desired by an editor as a valuable contribution to his columns. We write the ?above in a spirit of the utmost kindness to the writer of the lines above alluded to and to all others who have an ambition to see their compositions in print. They should remember that an editor can scarcely ever speak frankly to a wri ter concerning his contribution which lie desires to have printed. The van ity or self esteem of the writer would be too much wounded, and the editor has too much kindness of heart to speak freely what his mere judgment would often times lead him to say. Fatal Accident on the Central It. It. On Monday night of last week the en gine and tender of the night Express train of the Central R. It. w’erethrown from the track at Rogers, (No. 8A) and the Engineer,! Mr. Tlios. Pendergast was very seriously and the fireman. Mr. Charles Maddox fatally injured. As soon as the conductor and others could reach the place they found that a block or billet of wood had been tightly wedged in the frog of the turnout. “The engine mounted the track but soon rolled off and ran a distance of four car lengths, one side on the ties and the other on the ground, when it turned over and was partially buried in the sand. The en gineer was seated on his box and by the turning over of the engine was thrown to the opposite side. The fireman was on the Engineer's side of the engine and was caught by the tender which crashed into the cab.” The conductor found him “in the most horrible situation. A rail from the side track had in some way been torn up from the track and forced through the floor of the cab. It liad gone through the fireman's body, striking about the Avaist, literally pin ning him in position. The right foot had been forced against the lire box, and Avas burned off. In addition to this, lie Avas held between the cab and tender so that lie could not move in any way." Notwithstanding these terrible injuries, he Avas alive Avlien found and lived for three hours after- Avard. He begged those ayIio Avere Avorking to release him to knock him in the head and end his sufferings, and his cries were piteous. When af ter three hours the men moved the tender sufficiently to release him, the poor fellow breathed his last. The engineer in the meantime had been taken care of. When taken out of the Avrecked cab, it was found that his left leg Rad been terribly crushed by the tender being forced on the en gine. A physician found that he had received many slight injuries, but none serious except the leg, which it was believed would have to be ampu tated. The above account we have con densed from the Macon Telegraph’s report in its issue of the 9th instant. We were rejoiced to see in the Tele graph of the 10th, that there is a prospect of bringing this most atro cious crime home to its perpetrators. Hanging is by no means a punish ment proportioned to their villainy, if they are really guilty. The Tele graph says: REPORTED ARREST OF THE WRECKERS. It was reported yesterday among tlie railroad men that tAvo Avhite men had been arrested at Rogers on sus picion of having placed the billet of wood in the frog which caused the Avrecking of the passenger train at that point on Monday night. These men borrowed a hatchet from the sec tion boss Monday afternoon, and this hatchet was found near the wreck. These men had been in the employ of the road and Avere discharged one day last week. They were taken to Milieu for safe keeping. Later advices show that it was the lever of the locomotive and not a rail from the side track, which mangled the body of the fireman.—Ed. U. A R. One of the Surviving Seven.— Macon, June 9.—[Special to the Con stitution.]—The serious illness of Mr. E. E. Brown recalls to mind that he is one of the seven survivors of the Ma con Volunteers, who left here on a pole boat, ninety-one strong, to fight the Seminoles in 1835. Of the remain ing ones, Thomas A. Blount, Mr. Berkely, and Joseph E. Wells reside in Macon; Judge J. C. C. Clark in Dawson; Captain Shelton ini Atlanta, and James Cain in Jones county. All the boys have passed aw'ay but these seven, and now Mr. Brown is thought to be too ill to last much longer. It is a long way back to the days of Bowlegs and ’35. It covers the space of half a century, and in a£few years more the last of the veterans will pass, like their foes, “across the riv er.” A woman cannot love a man Avith her Avhole heart. She has to reserve a little of her affection for millinery. The president cut his honeymoon short by returning to Washington on Tuesday evening. Lucy Cobb Commencement. The commencement sermon Avas preached on the 0th by Rev. Dr. An drew Lipscomb with that intellectu al power and splendor of diction for which he so remarkable. The exercises of the school began on Monday night the 7th and notwith standing its inclemency every availa ble seat was filled to witness the exer cises of the little folks. “Lilliput Land” consisting of songs and recita tions Avere full of the most pleasing and mirth provoking scenes. The whole scenery of Pinafore Palace in Lilliput Land Avas good and exhibited the skill in all of its details and the great de gree of credit to Avhich those were en titled w r ho designed and managed it. The calisthenics followed and were gone through with regularity and uni formity. The Junior exercises opened Avith a piano duet by Misses Blanche Hill and Barnett, showing a high degree of cultivation. The dialogue between Misses Livy Cobb, Lee and Watkins, on Woman’s Rights was well receved. Next came a beautiful piano duet, “Defile March,” by Misses Kate Ruth erford are Cornelia Jackson. Miss Laura Morgan in her recita tion of my Grand-mother's Album elic ited a round of applause. Miss Livy Cobb’s recital of “A Scene in a North Carolina Court Room” Avas well received. When she came to that part of the testimony of the Avitness in which speaking of his Avife’s cross ing the river, he said, “My Avife like a dam-fool, lifted up her dress and wa- ded through” the cheering Avas im mense. Miss Blanche Lipscomb’s A'ocal solo, “Old Street Lamp,” elicited a round of applause. Misses Barrett and Peters rendered in good style the duet, “Fantaise Militaire.” Miss Cordelia Watkins took in the the house with “Mr. Schmidt’s Mis take.” Miss Fannie Clark and Miss Belle Hill sang a beautiful duet, “The Night Mililotte.” Both have very SAveet voices. The Avriter from whom Ave make up our Aveak report was certain ly enthused, especially by Miss Clark, Avhose singing he says was angelic. Miss Blanche Lipscomb recited in her inimitable Avay “The Elocution Lessons.” Miss Blanche exhibits in all her intellectual efforts that trait of mind w’liich Lytton says is the high est indicia of superior mental endow ments, earnestnes. Misses Watkins, Hunnicutt and Clark rendered in good style the piano trio “Anvil Chorus de Verdi.” Miss Kate Rutherford’s recitation, ‘Becalmed’, was all that could be wish ed for. Miss Kate is a highly accom plished and talented young lady, and she recites in a Avav that shows that she is well skilled and trained in the beautiful art of elocution. All praise to iier. M iss May Lee read a composition, i ‘‘The boys", in a Avav that drew con- j siderable applause. * The exercises j closed Avith the “Junior Colloquy,” which Avas Avritten by Miss May Lee. The piece Avas highly enjoyed by ev ery one present, and* reflected credit : on the composer and all who partici pated in its rendition. The arn:ual concert on Tuesday night gaA'e mirth and joy to the whole • audience. The young ladies filed in to the mel low notes of the “Marche Triomphola.” ; skillfully executed by Miss Mell at the organ. We cannot at this late hour do more i than refer to the beautiful perform ance of the Misses Goodw'in, Morgan, | Williams, and Sallie May Hill, in the ■ Teusal Polonaise ; Miss Wimberly in j in the solo, “Reveil du Lion.” Misses Clarke, Watkins, Alexander, and Tar water delighted the critics with the Marche der Wichtelmanner. The quavers and trills were exceeding ly well executed. Miss Jackson of Atlanta sweetly j sang “Where did you come from?” I The duett by Misses Barker and How ell was finely executed. Miss Good win’s Si Tu Suvais was exquisite. ; T> Miss L. Barnett gave Le Chant des Niades and was highly praised. | The quartette Satanella, by Misses 1 Alexander, Hunnicutt, Lipscomb, and Pearson, was simply grand. Miss Mary Hutchins won much praise with j “When ’tis moonlight.” | Misses Rutherford and I. M. Mell ; performed the duet by Jackson, Qui- va-la, which for expression equaled anything Ave have ever heard. J The trio by Smart, “Rest Thee on This Mossy Pillow,” w r as touchingly rendered by Misses Hill, Goodwin, and j Alexander. Misses Barnett and AVil- i liams gave the duet, “A Tonte Va- j peur,” by Jackson. | THE CLOSING SCENES ON WEDNESDAY. The graduatiug class consists of 20 in all. The essays and recitations of all were fine and exhibited careful j study and preparation. In our next issue we will give a full account of I the last days proceedings. This ex- j tension of time is caused bv several j days of severe illness of the Editor of I the Union & Recorder. This he j much regrets as he takes a great in- I terestin the Institution and he knows that at this late day a full report ! would be received too late for inser- ! tion in the paper he represents. J Perhaps the most exciting exercises ! of the whole commencement season Avere those of Wednesday morning be ing the prize contest for the elocution medals. There are two medals a- warded, one for the advanced classes and one for the Primary class, the for mer being presented by Mr. J. W. Stevens of Atlanta. These medals were delivered to the successful contestants Wednesday night by Professor Wilcox of the University. The Professor in his usu al happy style gave a neat, concise talk quite apropos of the occasion im pressing upon the whole audience the great truth that failure to accomplish one end in vieAv, frequently insures the success of another and finally held the audience in death like stillness by announcing the successful contestant as Miss—hesitating a few seconds—the reigning silence needed but the pro nouncing of a single name, Miss Nora Palmer, to change all into deafening applause. The Miss Palmer is from Washington, Ga., and has ever since her connection with the Lucy Cobb Institute been noted for her fine elo cutionary talents. The Primary medal Avas awarded to little Miss Julia Lumpkin, of Athens, amidst the plaudits of the well satis fied audience. The delivery of Diplo- plomas and the following benediction by the Rev. Dr. Lane, closed one of the most brilliant of the cherished Lucy Cobb Institute's Commence ment exercises. TECHNOLOGICAL EDUCATION. We had not the space yesterday to speak as fully as w r e desired of the technological examinations of the Colored Atlanta University. Without undervaluing the literary course, we frankly state that the tech nological features of this institution are its most valuable ones. And we are equally frank to say that these features present something for general imitation in all our seminaries of learn ing both white and colored. Sewing and cooking are taught the females, and the specimens of work shown demonstrated the care of teach er and the application of the pupil. Garments of every kind, cut and made by the pupils, Avere exhibited, while the cooked food, the bread, cakes and pastry Avere good. The males showed excellent instruc tion in farming, gardening and the use of tools. Mr. Sessions taught the former and Mr. Turner the tool work. The display of products included 00 kinds of grasses, corn, oats, rye, bar ley. sugar cane, fruits, vegetables of all kinds, clover, etc. The work Avith Avood tools was gratifying. Forty young men show ed a remarkable proficiency in their use, and displayed specimens of their skill. A variety of articles made by them Avas on exhibition. The boys showed also a fine knowledge of using turning lathes. This is on the right line, and should be Avidened. It is proposed to add a printing establishment to teach the hoys about type. The board of visitors Avas greatly interested in this feature of the col lege. We repeat that the experiment is a most interesting one and presents the solution of the best practical educa tion.—Atlanta Capitol. The Code of Honor.—The old code of honor has played out. It had its use in its day as a corrective of the frailties of a too bumptious nature, and doubtless Avas not an unmixed evil. But, however that may be, it has gone to its grave unwept, unhon- ored, and unsung. It Avould be well, however, to supply the place made vacant by falling into innocuous de suetude of that institution for the settling of differences between gentle men, by the erection of a court of honor, to which gentlemen may sub mit alleged grievances, they agreeing to be bound by its decision. Most cases of differences are capable of be ing settled by such an appeal. For ' instance, suppose that three gentle- I men in each judicial circuit in the j State should be designated by com- | mon consent as fit persons to consti- j ture a court for the adjustment of ! such delicate business. We could sug- ! gest the names of three gentlemen in ! this district to Avliom AA’e suppose a!- most any man, no matter how solici- i tous he may be about his honor, would be willing to defer. The same might be done for every judicial dis- • trict, and instead of the principals un der the code putting their honor in ; the hands of one man, they would, bv acknowledging the court of honor, confide it to the keeping of three.—Ra- * leigli (N. C.) News. The marriage of Justice Stanley Mathews, of the supreme court of the United States, to Mrs. Mary K. Thea- ker, widow of ex-Judge T. C. Theaker, of Ohio, will take place in New York i on Wednesday, June 23. Justice and | Mrs. Mathews will sail on the same i day for Europe, where they will re main until October. Maxwell, the murderer of Preller, has been found guilty. He will doubt less hang. In the meantime Cluverius languishes in Richmond jail charged with the murder of Lillian Madison. He too will likely hang. And now it leaks out that Dr. Sun derland, in marrying the president and Miss Folsom, left out the word “obey.” He thinks “honor” covers the case. This version gives Frankie the drop on Grover should any domes tic squalls arise. The oats and wheat crops we are glad to learn are turning out better than was anticipated.—Sandersville Herald. The Hard Rock.—Macon, June 9. —[Special to the Constitution.]—Mr. Tube Clay has penetrated the solid blue flint rock at the park at the depth of forty or fifty feet. He has tried three s<frts of steel, from the £11 per pound of the finest temper to or dinary grades, and he cannot find any that will make a drill hard enough to last any length of time. The rock appears to be a solid vein, of which forty feet has been pierced, and no one can give a guess at how much further it will hold out. Still Mr. Clay, though losing money on the well, Avill go on pecking away accord ing to contract. He has promised to get water and says he is going to have it. The difficulty of boring may be imagined when one remembers that Avith alittl£4Hncli drill he|is only able to bore sirinches per day. The Big Levee.—Macon, June 9. —[Special to the Constitution.]—The experience of the late flood has taught the authorities that there is no use blinking at the question of protecting the city park from inundation if they would preserve this beautiful place in tact. The gradual filling in of the river, and the frequent changes in the course of the channel, make it liable to be inundated at any time. Tlie county commissioners have al- loAved the city the use of McGee's chaingang for a week or two, and a good many outside hands have been employed, and the work of raising a le\'ee along the river’s bank is going ahead at a lively rate. Eventually the whole of the Ioav lands, immediate ly south ol the city, xvill be so protect ed and reclaimed. AVe have opened to-day a beautiful line of lace flounciug, savi'ss and mull embroidery, wide, nice patterns, for commencement dresses. Come before they are all sold. P. J. Cline <fc Co. Sir.
