Cholera al TonIon.

The news that cholera has appeared at
Toulon is startling. 1t is undetermined
vet whether it is Asiatic or sporadic.
The French Minister of Commerce says
that it is sporadic. 1t is sincerely to be
hoped that 1t is, but 1t does not appear to
be certain that the Minister Of Commerce
is well informed. The inhabitants are
leaving the city by thousands. Marseilles,
only thirty miles distant, is greatly
alarmed, and the news Of the outbreak Of
the disease created a sensation at Paris.
II the Asiatic cholera is really at TOu-
lon, the whole Of Europe will be more
profoundly stirred than it would be by the
announcement of a declaration of war
between two great European powers.
TOulOn is located at the head of a
double bay of the Mediterranean, is
sheltered by a range Of mountains,
and contains about $1,000 inhabitants.
Quarantine has been established against
the city already, ana every precau-
ton taken TO prevent the spread of the
plague and to stamp it out. The re-
searches OF the German and French sci
entists in Egypt and India, within the
last year, lead to the conclusion that
cholera is due to local causes. The lead
ing member Of the scientific commission
does not doubt that the cholera in Egypt
and India was caused by bacilli. He
found these organisms in the water in
Egvpt. hut more extensively in drinking
water in India. 1t is denied that the disease
was imported into TOulon. Doubtless an
investigation will be at once instituted to
discover, if possible, its origin. Heat and
acids, it is claimed, will destroy the
cholera bacillus. 1t is to be hoped that
this claim is well founded, and that a
remedy for cholera has been discovered.

Tr,,e T,ove,s Rourb Current.

On an humble street in South Nashville
lives a Mr.. Mason, who las a daughter by
the name of Annie. Although only thir-
teen years OF age, Annie gave her heart
to a staIwart young man, a native of
Georgia, who loved her deyOtedly in re-
turn. Owing to her tender years her pa
rents objected to the marriage of the
young people. and even opposed their en-
loving each others society. The young
man, although poor and uncultured, was
one of natures heroes, and determined at
all hazards to make the girl his own.
Saturday night, three weeks ago, at 10
O'Clock, Edward Norman, the lover, went
to Annie's house by appointment. Not
being able tO-get out by the door, she
leaped out Of the window into his arms.
They were closely pursued by Annie's
father and sister. Occasionally Annie
would get so tired she could not run, when
Ed. would take her in his arms and carry
her, sleeping like an infant, for miles.
Sunday morning they were at Murfrees-
borO, thirty miles away, and here they
took the cars for the home of NOrman's
mother, in CatOOsa county, Georgia. Mrs.
Norman welcomed them as dear children,
and sent Annie to the house of niece a
few miles distant. This niece received
her most kindly, and together they went
TO work on the wedding outfit, the mar
riage being appointed for the 25th inst.
Annie and Eddie were madly happy, and
the white null dress and bridal veil and
orange wreath were fast approaching
completion. All parties concerned prided
themselves that Annie would be the
prettiest little bride in Georgia.
On Tuesday last a gentleman rode up
to the gate Of the house where Annie was
stopping. She thought it was the preacher
who was soon to pronounce the words
that should make her Mrs. Norman, but,
alas! il proved TO be the Sheriff. Firmly
but tenderly he took both Ed. and Annie
into custody. and when they had hidden
their loved ones goodbye, Carried them to
Granville and gave them in charge Of the
Sheriff of Davidson county, Tennessee,
and the next morning they were again in
Nashville, Annie in her fathers house and
her gallant knight in jail, charged with
the abduction of a minor, the penalty for
which Offense in that State Is three years
Imprisonment at hard labor in the peni-
Tertiary.
Love, however, triumphs after all, for
at last accounts, according to the Nash
VILE American, Mr.. Mason had acknowl-
edged himself baffied and consented to
the marriage, and Annie was preparing
TO call on Judge Allen TO beg him to dis
miss the warrant, and restore Eddie, as
she calls him, to liberty.
No doubt by this time Ed and Annie are
back in CatOosa county, and the white
null dress and the bridal veil and the
orange blossoms will adorn, if not the
prettiest, at least the brayest little bride
in Georgia.

The University of Georgia.

We publish in another column the re-
port to the Governor Of the Board Of Visi-
tors to the University of Georgia respect
ing the annual examinations. The report
is noticeable for what it hints at rather
than for what it says. 1t apparently aims
to say that many of the students, as
shown by the examinations, are very de-
fcient in the cOmmonest branches OF
education. and that instead of struggling
with the studies of a university course
they ought to be studying photography,
penmanship and grammar in the common
schools. If this is what is meant it is TO
be regretted that it doesn't speak more
plainly. If there are defects in the sys-
TEN adopted by the University they ought
to be made known at once in order that
remedy may be applied. We suspect that
the University is laboring under two diff
cuIties. First, in order to make a showing
in numbers it admits students whose
scholarship IS far below the required
standard, and, second, the professors have
more to do than they can do well.
The admission Of half prepared stu
dents is damaging to the students as
we'll as TO the University. Students
who lack the basis for a university educa-
tion seldom, or never, understand the
subjects they study, and reach the end Of
the course without being much better in
formed than when they began it. They
reflect no credit on the University and are
not prepared for any occupation or for the
study of profession. 1t would be much
better for the University to require strict
compliance with its standard of admls-
sion, even if not more than half dozen
students a year were admitted for few
years. The reputation Of the University
would increase, and with increased repu-
tation would come an increase in the
number of well prepared students. If the
professors have more duties than they can
attend to properly, and if an increase in
the faculty is out of the question, it
would be better to cut Ofsome of the sub
jeets of study. A few subjects well di-
gested and thoroughly understood are
better than many of which only a smat-
tering knowledge is obtained.
