such an article. Tt is a great pity that
Ur. Lipscomb resigned the Chancel

The Htoekinea of the Period.
The Paris shops are full of the
most fanciful designs in this one de
tail of feminine attire. They are j
made in a cream color, lemon color, !
orange, yellow, straw color, pink,
pule blue, pale green, lilac, light
brown, dark brown, crimson, scarlet,
purple-in short, in every shade of
every color. But the precise tint is
only half the question; the designs
worked upon the stockings are by far
the most important part of it, as re
gards fashion, and these are of the
most varied description.
One pair of stockings which exci
ted much admiration from the pas
sers of a certain well-known shop in
Paris was in lemon color, and the
instep of each foot was covered with
hunches of black currents, with their
twigs and leave's, most delicately em
broidered in the colored silks.
Another example of ornamentation
lay close at hand, in the form of a
black silk stocking, round the log
of which a garter of pink rosebuds
and leaves winding upward from the
ankle was exquisitely embroidered.
This last fashion is very popular now.
Stockings so embroidered are, of
course, enormously dear. Few wo
men ean afford to buy many such ex
pensive articles of dress as these gar
land stockings; therefore it becomes
a matter of eager competition among
the leaders of fashion to secure as
many specimens of the latest rage as
their purses will allow. The mania
is instilled, ami henceforth the wo
man of the world takes rank accord- i
ing to her stockings. Garlands of
flowers do not hold the held alone, it!
must be observed. In some cases in
scriptions and devices aro embroider
ed round the legs of the modern
stockings, and rows and patterns are
worked in colored silk stars or spots.
The ground, however, of all this j
work must, on no account, be white, j

CELEBRATION OF AIX.UNI SOCIETY THE
POEM OF J. PKKCIVAI. OLIVER, A. M.
AUBURN BRASS BAND -THE BOVS IN
GRAY—OKNF.RAL IMPRESSION, ETC.
Editors Times: Wo hastily indict
ed you a few lines on yesterday, the
12th lust, Wo have been somewhat
at a loss to see why it is that so many
of our youth go abroad for their edu
cational advantages, when Auburn
and her Agricultural and Mechanical
College offers inducements and facil
ities equal to any institution of learn
ing, either North or South. Such an
able corps of professors as this col
lege possesses is a sure guarantee of
success. We saw on the rostrum, on
yesterday, some rising intellects
among the Alumni for which,not only
Auburn and her college should be
proud, but the State of Alabama.
The venerable, indefatigable Ur. J.
T. Tielieuor, D. D., President and
Professor of Agriculture, is a gentle
man about fifty-nine years of age
with a pleasant face. Ho is rather
Inclined to baldness ; Ims a quick, de
cisive, searching eye, und wo wager
our old hat that lie is a rigid disci
plinarian.
The beautiful, luxuriant crop at
tached to his department, which is so
well diversified, exhibits evidence of
marked progress in the science of
culture. Wo see corn which would
well honor the eanebreaks of Ala
bama growing to the height-of six
teen feet on the poorest natural pine
woßd land. Beside this corn, are
some varieties of grasses which are
monuments to prove to the most
skeptical that, ours is the country best
adapted to grasses. It would do the
heart of your Agricultural editor
good to pay Ur. Tichouor a visit and
see liis diversified crop. Noticeable
among his experimental crop is some
Texas millet, which your correspon
dent thinks will, sooner or later, boa
most valuable adjunct to the burn.
It grows io the height of five feet, and
heads like wheat or oats, and is said
to excel oats as a feed for stock. Jn
doed, so well do horses like it that
they will refuse o.vts for it when
placed in the manger side by side,
ft grows on the poorest of land high
enough to cut, and is easily cultivat
ed, growing broadcast, but better in
measured drills.
As l have briolly alluded to the
President, it will not be amiss for me
to give a pen portrait of Chief Engi
neer R. A. Hardaway, commandant
and professor of civil engineering.
This gentleman is well known to the
“boys in gray” who followed the im
mortal it. E. Leo in Virginia. He
commanded a battalion of artillery
during the war, with the rank of
Colonel. He wag in the first battle
of Manassas and afterward in forty
other engagements witli the enemy,
making forty-one engagements in u
period of four years, lie is a native,
I believe, of Georgia, was born in
1828, went to Mexico as an officer in
Seibel’s battalion. The guns of the
Third Richmond Howitzers, a com
pany of Ills arliliery regiment, fired
the last, shot at Appamattox Court
house, thus closing tlie scene. The
last ray of hope for the Southern
Confederacy was belched forth from
the mouth of that cannon, and could
it now be found in some dusty artil
lery park, it should be sent to Col.
Hardaway, to bo placed by him in
charge of the “boys in gray” at tlie
institute over which ho so ably pre
sides. Colonel H. is one of the most
learned and experienced engineers of
the profession.
Professor J. T. Dunklin, I believe,
has been longer ussociatud with tho
college than any other professor of
the present day. Ho was with it in
its inception, and no man could fill
his position so well as himself. He
is professor of languages, and lias
not a compeer in tlie South. His eye
sight is somewhat impaired, but wo
hope that his vision may ever be as
good as the tender emotions of his
generous heart.
W. C. STUBBS, A. M.,
Professor of Natural Sciences. This
gentleman is scarcely out of his teens,
yet he fills the place of Jno. Darby,
the renowned Professor of Science.
Some very fine papers have recently
emanated from this gentleman on tlie
subject of “Geology.” His “Chemi
cal Reports” furnished to tho Btato
Geologist are evidences of his great
learning and scientific ability. I
would here give you an outline of Lis
department, but reserve it, for a fu
ture letter. Prof. Htubbs is a native
of Virginia,
OATIS V. SMITH, A. M.,
Nephew of the venerable Oatis Smith,
of LaOrange, Ga., is Professor of
Mathematics.
The Hon. J. Pereival Oliver deliv
ered his poem on yesterday in the
City Hall in fine style. His theme
was “Duty.” Dr. A. G. Dowdell de
livered the oration, which was a
splendid production. This young
gentleman reflects the mantle of his
distinguished father, Hon. J. P, Dow
dell.
Auburn should be called the city of
farms. Tho houses are all tolerably
neat, of the cottage style, one-story,
and every house has from ten to
twenty acres of land in cultivation

The Auburn brass band discourses
some excellent music, which very
much rejuvenates “our corpulent

The Cadets had a dress parade last
evening. They wore handled ex
ceedingly well, going through each
evolution like clock work. Attached
to the campus ground, neatly sur
veyed into beauty’s enraptured
mould, is the Institute’s garden,
where exotics and the native flowers
dispel their fragrance upon tho even

to tho city, and will inevitably bo tho

lIE MAKES A REMARKABLE SPEECH.
New Y’ork, July 13. A dispatch
from Peokskill says there was a most
enthusiastic demonstration, last
night, by the citizens of Peokskill In
honor of Henry Ward Beecher. About
thousand people marched in proces
sion to Beecher’s cottage, where the
latter received them on the lawn.
After music by an accompanying
band, Judge Wells, as spokesman, ex
plained to Beecher that the demon
stration of citizens was for the pur
poseof giving expression to l heir con
fidence in him as a man and Chris
tian minister.
Beecher replied in a remarkable
speech of an hour, lie reviewed the
aspects of tlie late trial, and declared
his honesty of character and confi
dence of ills countrymen. It had car
ried him through. He referred to tho
devotion of Plymouth Church to him;
of the numerous letters from the min
istry, expressing confidence and lpve,
and said lie would continue in tlie
work ho had begun; lie had no new
course; was too old to change his po
sition, and would not be muzzled in
future. The expenses to him of the
late trial had been over $75,000. He
closed by thanking all for this ex
pression of their confidence.
Chaunocy 51. Depur next made a
brief address of congratulation to
Beecher.
Tho crowd then shook hands with
the Plymouth pastor and withdrew.

THE WORLD DENOUNCES THE INEFFICIEN
CY OF THE POLICE.
New York, July 13.—Tho World, in
a double-leaded editorial, denounces
in scathing terms tho inefficiency of
tho police to prevent crime in the
city, and’refers to a bold burglary at
noon yesterday in Uanser’s house,
Wcst-llth street, and asks if security
of life and property are not to be ob
tained in Now York without a vigi
lance committee, how long will it be
before a vigilance committee goes to
work to obtain them ? Nothing
stands in the way of obtaining this
security but worthless, cowardly, cor
rupt, in a very practical aspect, con
temptible organization of tho police
force of New York.
“That thar clock, stranger,” said a
Michigan farmer, “war the best kind
of a timer up to six months ago,
when my darter began to have
beams aiid be courted every night.
Now, the blamed thing is always two
hours slow.”

THE AMERICANS NOT TO SHOOT IN ENG
LAND.
London, July 13. - Col. Gildersleevo
ims officially replied to an inquiry
from tlie London agents of tho press
that the determination of the Ameri
cans not to shoot another team mutch
on this side of tho Atlantic is final.
Ho says tho members of tho team aro
iioav separated and cannot be brought
together for any purpose before next
week. Five or six of the team would
probably bo glad, as individuals, to
shoot at, Wimbledon on Saturday if
tlie Lloyds cap is offered.
In the House of Lords Earl Derby,
Minister of State for tho Foreign De
partment, in reply to a question put
by Lord Penzance, said the German
note to Belgium, dated February 3,
1875, laying down certain interna
tional principles, had no application
to Grout Britain, who was not asked
to acquiesce therein. Tlie subjects of
that correspondence Avoro now settled
and it was useless to discuss abstrac
tions. Tho words of tho German dis
patch which had been quoted by the
noble Lord were so vague that they
did not admit of judicial interpreta
tion. If tlioy meant that all acts
having a tendency, however indirect
or remote, to cause disturbance in
another State ought to bo prohibited,
that would be the most extraordinary
and preposterous claim ever put forth
in diplomancy. If tlioy only meant
some acts which international luaa’s
forbid, that was a principle which,
within certain limits, every govern
ment would admit; but for one gov
ernment to require another, under
menace, to silence its press or public
speakers was an act which had al
ways excited, and lie hoped would
always excite, the strongest sympa
thy for the latter and indignation
against the former, because such a
demand was arbitrary and oppres
sive.
Sir Edward Watkins lias accepted
tho chairmanship of the British com
mittee of Erie bondholders, on con
dition that all interested will support
his appointment.
MOODY AND SANICEY.
London, July 13. At Moody and
Sankey’s farewell meeting, lust night,
188 clergymen of tho Church of Eng
land wore present, far outnumbering
that, of any other denomination. Co
ran Conway, of Westminster, occu
pied a seat on the platform. All
present were deeply affected. Mr.
sloorly, while speaking, was so over
come by emotion that he had to stop,
and Avas unable to conclude bis ad
dress.
A SPANISH VESSEL WRECKED.
Santander, July 13. The Spanish
steamer Bayonne has been wrecked
near the village of Matrleo, on the
Biscayan const. The crew were saved
by Corlist fishermen. It is said they
will bo held as hostages,and the Car
lists threaten to shoot them if the
lloyulisrs bombard any more coast
towns.
THE ORANGEMEN IN IRELAND.
The usual Orange celebration oc
curred yosterday at Dublin and in
towns throughout Ulster and Liver
pool. Most of the meetings passed
resolutions condemning homo rule.
No disturbance anywhere.
THE HISItZEOBVINA TROUBLE.
A dispatch to Renter’s telegraph
company from Vienna says tho
Southern slavery party lias grossly
exaggerated the Ilazegcniva disturb
ances, which are entirely of an agra
rian character, and originated in a
resistance to tax collectors. Turkey’
considers it unnecessary to send rein
forcements to tho scene of trouble.
THE SPANISH CONSTITUTION.
Madrid, July 13.- The draft of the
proposed Constitution provides for a
Senate, to bo composed of three
classes. First, horiditary title; sec
ond, elected by popular corporations;

AN ATTACK ON OUANKI'.MKN.
NINE OF THE RIOTERS KILLED.
Lawrence, Mass., July 13. A mob j
attacked the Orangemen returning
from a picnic. A dozen Orangemen
with ladies and children disembark
ed at the steamers landing, when sev
eral hundred Irish followed shouting
and jerring, and finally throwing
stones. A lady was struck three
times and badly hurt. All were more
or less injured during a half mile
walk to the station house for refuge.
Four men wore regalias, one of which
‘was severely hurt, and had his sash
torn off. The Mayor with a squad of
police attempted to escort the refu
gees homo. Showers of . stones and
bricks were hurled at the party as
soon asthoy appeared. With the ex
ception of the 51ayor, every one was
hurt, some seriously. Tho mob then
made a furious assault on nearly all
tho Orangemen, and the police com
menced firing into tho Irish, who
cried “kill tho d—d Orangemen.”
The mob scattered before the revol
vers. Nino were killed outright, but
two men, one Avoman and a boy of 12
were wounded. The riot lasted two
hours, and extended over a mile of
tho most thickly seltlod portion of
the city.

it, is that S3OO of tho $2,000,000 was

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from tho
cow’s udder and kept dry for years, theu mois
tened, ami the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
in It and drawn geutly on the arm, so as uot to
draw the blood, will so impregnate and change
tho entire system as to prevent the party so vac
cinated from takiug the most loathsome of dis
eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, if tbu
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not tho
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy tho poisou. known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
Impunity?
Wo claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, and applied it, and proved
it in our Auti-malurial or Euchymial Belt—and
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
tlie worst malarial districts without tho fear of
having any dlsoases arisiug from malaria; such as
Chills and Fevor, BUlious or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundiec, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, and that it will cure all tho above dis
cuses. except tho worst cases of Billious and Yel
low Fever.
This is called au Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of the oody and
produces a healthy action, Invigorating the sys
tem, aud thus enabling it to per.orm its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaris iu
tho least.
It has been tried iu thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can be obtained irotu the proprietors iu
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and l'eachtreo streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cure or the money refunded.
N. B.—Nouo genuine without the trade mark
is stamped upon them.

Atlanta, Ga., June 5,1875.
Messrs. Love A Willson: Gentlemen—ln April
lust I was tukeu Biek with regular Fever aud
Ague, haviug it evory alternate day. After it had
run on mo for two weeks, 1 was induced to try
one of your Auti-malurial belts; so I discarded all
medicine, and simply wore one of your Belts, as
directed, aud my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some three or four
times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe
tite ami clear skin; and in Biture, if I should ever
have a Chill or Ague,l would want oue of your Pads,
and no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
ho unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may
be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,
W. J. Wilson.
Atlanta, Ga.. June 3,1875.
Drs. Love k Willson:
On tho first day of December last I was taken
with Chills and Fever iu ThomaMviile, Southwes
tern Ga.. aud was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days at a time. It made such inroads
on my constitution that my physician pronoun
ced me to be iu the first stages of consumption,
wh en I accidentally met up with I)rs. Love A Will
son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
mo. I have had but one chill since, and that was
the first day after putting it on. lam now iu an
good health as 1 ever was in my lile, and think
this Belt a God-send to the afllieted.
J. M. Mathews.
Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1875.
Some nine years ago I contracted malaria in
Savanuah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at
times, ever siuce, until I met up with Drs. Love k
Willson's Anti-malarial Bolt some three mouths
ago. I have worn it continually, aud have had uo
chill since, and llud my general health, which
bus been poor, much improved. I would recom
mend it to others suffering with malaria.
R. A. Wallace.
Macon, Ga., pune 4, 1876.
Friend IIodoson: I received your letter of the
26th ult,, on yesterday, I have been off on a fish
iug excursion aud just returned.
The people of this town don't chill worth aceut
yet. 1 have sold two of the pads, aud that I did
the very hour I first received them, one to one of
our conductors, aud to Mr. Vaughn, a. Clerk iu
the office. They both say that they tried Quinine
aud other remedies, aud that they failed till they
put on tlio pad; sinec then they have had no more
Chills or Fever, and they recommend them to ev
erybody. * * * * * Alk.x. Mathews,
The above pads were sent for us by Dr. Hodg
