and His Corps of Instructors.
WAYCRoss, GA, Aug. 26-The exercises
of the Peabody Institute are drawing to
close. 1t is the universal opinion of those
who have attended that this has been one
of the most successful and interesting insti-
tutes ever held in Georgia. Not only has
the routine work done by Supt. Bradwell's
competent corps of instructors been of a
high grade. but the lectures by Prof. Lane,
DIR. Clifton, and the addresses of Chan
cellor Boggs aud others have rendered this
meeting more like q Chautauqua than an
ordinary teachers institute.
The visitors are unstinted in their praise
of the hospitality Of the good people of this
city. The doors OF the most attractive
homes have been thrown wide open and the
strangers received with old-fashioned south

THOSE RESOLUTIONS.

The Dem ocrst.c Substitute Actually
Defeated the Ocala Resolution.
ATLANTA, GA. Aug. 26.-The alliance
meeting at the capitol last night was indeed
a sensational one. AS stated in this corr
respondence, there was a close connection
between the resolution adopted and the
Ocals resolution to come up In the legisla-
ture. That is substantiated by the devel-
opments to-day, for it appears that the good
democratic resolution was actually adopted
as substitute for the Ocala resolution,
which had just been introduced.
THE ISSUE MADE.
The issue. just as stated in this cor
respoDdence, was between the democratic
and the Ocala, or third party. platforms
The Ocala resolution was introduced by
Mr.. Barrett of Pike.
Mr.. Tatem's democratic substitute was
adopted by vote of 10 to 3. Many MEM
bers refused to vote.
Both resolutions were to have been intro>
duced in the House to-day. but for several
reasons-principally because of the pub
licity given the matter In the Macon Tele-
graph and the SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS
they were not brought up. Quite, lot
Of i'll feeling exists over the matter to-day
and the end is not yet.

one witness before them-Alliance District
Lecturer Wimosrly Of the Third district.
The information that led TO Mr..

msn and made arrangements for the man
% sell his vote 70 Mr.. Calhoun. but when he
Wimberlyl went to Mr.. Calhoun for the
money Mr.. Calhoun Indignantly refused its
demand
Mr. wIMBERLY'S DENIAL.
Mr.. Wimberly was examined ar some
length. He had never made such a state
ment. he said. He did suspect, from MOTTO
ing the actions OF one member of the legis-
lature, that this man could be bought.
How did you judge Of that" he was
asked.
90" was the answer, "he was solid one
day, you know, and the next day he was all
to pieces"
Did you approach this member upon
the question:
mo. regard mans integrity as do a
woman's virtue. l may know he can be
led astray, but would not lead him astray.
Oh no."
Mr.. Wimberly stated further, however,
that he went to Mr.. Calhoun and told him
| that he believed this mans vote could be
had for money. Mr.. Calhoun positively re-
| fused to entertain such an idea. He would
GO TO THE SENATE ON HIS MERITS
or not at all. He would not spend dollar.
Mr.. Wimberly excused this action of his
| by pleading the great concern he felt for
| the success of his candidate.
Mr.. Trammell asked for the name of this
member who was suspected of wanting to
| sell his vote.
Mr.. Wimberly refused to give it on the
| ground that it was only a suspicion in his
own mind.
"Who did that man finally vote forp'
asked Mr. Trammell
Mr.. Wimberly did not like to answer this,
but finally said: FOR Gen. Gordon"
The last question was: did you know
| enough TO warrant YOU in going away from
here and saying that you knew one member
whose vote could have been bought for
500"
II did not"
Regarding the conversation with Mr..
Graham Mr.. Wimberly said be might have
said to Mr.. Graham substantially what he
had stated to the committee.
The committee has completed its in
vestigation, and began to-day upon the
drawing up OF its report.

HARRISON IN VERMONT.

His Reception by the Assembly at
Montpelier-His Spe sch.
MONTPELIER, VT, Aug. 26.-President
Harrison spent last night at st. Adams and
reached here at II O'Clock this morning
He was introduced to the assembly which
was at the station, and spoke briefly in
acknowledgement of his welcome. He
spoke at greater length at an open air
assemblage. The following is an extract
from his speech.
THE PRESIDENTS REMARKS
It is great thing to be a citizen of the United
States. The association OF states is geograph-
ical necessity. We can never consent that hos
tile boundaries shall be introduced with all that
Maine to California, one from the lakes
10 the Gulf lappausel, and everywhere 10
all that domain we must insist that the behests
OF the federal constitution and of the laws as
written in the federal statute book shall be
Loyalty ooeyed. lAppause.l statesman of
one OF the southern states said 60 me, with
tears in his eyes, shortly after my inaugu-
ration: Mr. President, 1 hope you
Intend IN md s.ot to give the so, poor people
chance to do what? If you mean. sir, that you
shall have chance to nullify any law. and
that l shall wink at the notification of
it, you ask that which you ought
not to ask for, and that which cnnnot con-
slider. Applause. If you mean that obeying
every public law and giving TO every other man
his full rights under the law and constitution,
they shall abide in my respect and the security
and peace of our institutions; then they shall
have, so far as in my power lies, an
equal chance with all cur people Applause
We may not choose what laws we will obey;
the choice is made for us. When the majority
have, by lawful methods, placed the law upon
the statute book we may endeavor to repeal it,
we may challenge its wisdom. but while it is
law it challenges our obedience. [Applausel
