■ The four little babies children of
K]],> birth, belonging to tin* hai>pyllt
ttc father, John Hahn, of No. till Low
Erect, have become the town talk ev-
Hn wherc, and a great deal of interest
KiV been manifested in their welfare,
W give them a chance to grow. Not-
JmtMtaiKlinK the ineonvenint locality
of their birth and the pent-up sur
f tidings of their cradle, there has
n an almost continuous rush to
them. At times duringycsterday
little room in which they lay was
£>wdod almost to suffocution with
lies, while the narrow stairs were
>wdcd, ami tile pavement outside
thronged with others awaiting their
turn. The babies were neatly dress
ed, having ribbons of different, colors,
and tags with their names as they,
were christened, Sarah, Mary, Kate
and Jennie, to distinguish one from i
the other,
It is feared that the atmosphere of
a small, crowded room, and the stir
rounding excitement, will not he good
for them, but the people will come,
andjoally it is not to be wondered
that curiosity is aroused over such a
remarkable freak of nature. All the
children urc plump and well develop
ed. They have amply demonstrated
their lung powers, and seem to have
as good a prospect for life as any ot li
er children born in their condition,
bolter, indeed, when the sympathy is
considered t hat tliehr appearance al
together inis awakened. One of the
children seems to beu trille more d.-l
ieate than the three others. Miss Sa
rah seemed to be more generally itt
qpred for than her sisters on account
of the notoriety siie had obtained for
being a cry baby.
AU who were admitted to seethe
babies paid something into the hands
of a voimg man stationed to receive
contributions to the baby fund. Sev
eral hundred ladies and some men
vlaited the house during the day,
naHTiy all of them paying at least 25
eito admission, and some voluntari
ly giving a larger sum. Among the
Spptors were persons from a distance, i
At least a dozen or more physicians 1
went to see for themseves and to in
quire of Mr. liahu all about it. In-,
deed the father seemed to be as much j
an object of curiosity as the babies.
Ho is a small, neat, slim, intelligent!
little man, not more than five feet
tall. The mother is said to be a wo-:
man of large size, though she is of
course secluded. Her physicians,
however, report her to be doing well.
The father remained up-stairs in t lie
room with the babies, guarding his
Orooc from the too enthusiastic ea
geruessof the ladies in their rnanib s
gjfclons towards “the little dears.’’
He has his hands full "minding the >
babies.” Mrs. Hahn will soon eome
around all right again, and then he
will lie relieved. A nurse was in
Attendance helping the little four
father.
Contributions for the babies were
started at several hotels and in other
public places yesterday. At Bar- 1
gum'. ! twenty-five dollars were raised
up to lust night. Considerable sums
were also given at the Carrollton ami
the Eutaw House, at the bar of Font’s
Grand Opera House, and at Kavan
iagh’s Restaurant, on Eutaw street.
Thou uartette has become so popular ,
mat the proprietors of much patron
ized restaurants and cigar stores have
begun to discover that subscription
lists for the babies are “just the
thing.” The proprietor of the cigar
stand at Itanium’s lias the following
placarded above a box, in whieli the
money can be put:
‘•Four little babies all In a row,
l'ay ten cents and let the babies grow.’’
Mate Agricultural f,invention at Thom
asvillr.
Spcciil from the Atlanta Herat,l.]
Thom\svii.i.e, Gu., February 24, 1875.
—A very large convention of two hun
dred and fifty delegates entertained
by the people and authorities of
Thonia-ville with unbounded hospi-I
tiility.
Dr. rendleton's third report of ex
periments was yesterday, exciting the
highest interest.
In the morning l’rof. Leroy Brown
made an address on the influences of
the moon on animal and vegetable
life, full of great learning and show
ing conclusively that no such influ
ences wore possible. It was ordered
to be published, and will do more to
root out superstition than any publi
cation ever made.
Prut White’s addresson the analy
sis of wheat, peas, pine, straw and
fertilizers especially, showing how
farmer can determine what is a ftiir
price for commercial fertilizers, was
highly appreciated.
Hr. W. 1,. Jones’ address on the
cotton plant as a fertilizer presented
anew and highly important question.
The convention adopted the follow
ing Resolution:
Resolved, That the Georgia Slate
College of Agriculture is worthy of a
liberal support from the Legislature,
under whose control the College is
placed by law, and we recommend
the Legislature to provido the Col
lege with ample means, and to fur
nish all appliances required to teach
and investigate subjects relative to
agriculture and mechanic arts, as
thereby the direct interests of the
farmer-, and of the industrial '-lass,
will be promoted, and the wealth of
the State increased.
Arcsolution wusadopted eoinmettd
ing the Agricultural Department to
the fat huts of Georgia, and thanking
Dr. Jones for his report sand circular,
and rigid enforcement of the inspec
tion laws.
■Alton was selected for the next
convention.
Dr. E. C. Hood delivered an inldr* 1 ■
on green soiling, an 1 It. U. Hardawav
