We had the pleasure yesterday of
meeting Col. Owen P. Fitzsimons, the
recently appointed United States Mar
shal for Georgia. After congratulating
Col. Fitzsimous, the reporter conversed
with him in regard to his appointment,
his residence and other matters pertain
ing to the Marshalship,
Reporter: Who were most prominent
hi Washington iu your behalf, Colonel?
Col. Fitzsimona; Mr. Stephens was
mainly instrumental in securing the ap
pointment. He is a power in Washing
ton, aud is thought a great deal of by
everybody. Gen. Gordon worked hard
in the Senate for my confirmation.
Reporter: Your appointment seems to
give general satisfaction; does it not ?
Col. Fitzsimons; I have heard noth
ing to the contrary. Both white and
colored citizens, much to my gratifica
tion, have congratulated mo since my
return from Washington.
Reporter : I)o you think yon will
have uuy trouble in enforcing the law ?
Col. Fitzsimons : None whatever, I
am satisfied that I will never have any
occasion to use troops. I intend to exe
cute the laws impartially, without regard
to party, race, color or previous condi
tion of servitude. I feel assured that
there will bo fewer violations of United
State 3 laws and a moro ready obedience
to the officers who sre charged with
their execution. The President has de
monstrated that he is the Chief Magis
trate of all the people of the Union, and
I think that the Southern people ought
to show that he receives their hearty
approvul. lam satisfied that all the
people of the State will sustain mo in
enforcing the laws. It is but natural
that they should assist a man raised
among them and whom they know, more
than they would a stranger.
Reporter : Where will you reside, Col.
Fitzsimons ?
Col. Fitzsimons : I shall livo in At
lanta; one of the United States Courts
meets there.
Col. Fitzsimons received congratula
tions on every baud yesterday. The
President could not have appoint
ed a mau more acceptable to the people
of the State and one who at the samo
time will enforce the laws in every oase.
Denlli of Major Win. i'mig.
lutelligeuoo reached this city yester
day of the death of Major Wm. Craig,
formerly of Augnsta, at the Columbia
Hotel, Columbia, S. C., on Tuesday,
the 4th inst. Ho was buried Wednes
day.
Major Craig was well knowo in Au
giiHta, where he spent many years of
his life. He was an estimable gentle
man, a true hearted friend aud an excel
lent oitizen. Before the war he was a
member of tbe firm of Moore A Craig,
of this city. At the beginning of the
war he went to the front as Lieutenant
in the Montgomery Gnards and after
wards rose to the positions of Captain
of that company and Major of the
Tenth Georgia Regiment. Just before
tbe close of the great struggle he was
appointed a Colonel by the Confederate
Government, but the war ended before
be received his commission. Iu all of
these positions he proved himself to be
a gallant soldier. He was seriously
wounded in battle. After the war lie
returned to the pursuits of civil life and
was in turn President of the Bath Paper
Mills, Treasurer of the Charlotte, Co
lumbia and Augusta Railroad, Treas
urer of the Augnsta and Summerville
Railroad and Agent of the Wilmingtoo,
Columbia and Augnsta Railroad, at
Columbia, S. C. At the time of his
death he was iu business at. Florence,
S C. Major Craig was an Irishman by
birth and was about fifty-niue years of
age.
A Fanny .111. lake.
Lxst Wednesday afternoon, about six
o’clock, New Territory Policeman B. M.
Evens discovered that his horse, which
lie had hitched to the rack in front of
the City Hall, about au hour previous,
was missing. Obtaiuing another horse,
lie followed up a due he had found, and
iu a short time overtook an old negro
named .lack Lawton riding the missing
horse along the Sand Bar Ferry road, in
the direction of the ferry. He ordered
Lawton to stop, but the old fellow either
did not or would not hear the order and
kept on his way. Mr. Evans, however,
fiaallv managed to bring him to a halt.
Lawton declared that the horse was his,
bnt. as Mr. Evans was equally well satis
fied that it belonged to him, he declin
ed to give it up. He took the negro,
who was drunk, iu tow, and carried him
to the City Hall, where he was locked
up for the night. Yesterday morning,
when Lawton had sobered np, he ex
plained that he, too, ewned a horse, and
bad, while drunk, mistaken Mr. Evans'
animal for his own. As Lawton’s equine
had been found aud placed in a stable,
hia explanation was accepted as oorreot
and he was released.
Sudden Death.
Some ten days since Mr. Charles R.
Bates, a genial gentleman and well
known capitalist of Kalamazoo, Mich.,
called at this office in company with
Mr. Krevtser, of the Detroit Free Press.
Mr. Bates was down South for a Winter
tour, and had stopped in Aiken, at the
Highland Park Hotel, for the season.
Last evening his wife and little daugh
ter, who accompanied him here, passed
through the city goiDg up the Georgia
|V>ad with Mr. Bates’ body. While
walking ont in Aiken Thursday, it seems
he was suddenly attacked with a heavi
ness in his chest, and, without any pre
vious symptoms, was dead in twenty
minutes thereafter. Four successive
paroxysms of what is supposed to have
been congestion of the lungs, seized
him, ere he ceased to breathe. He was
apparently a hearty man.
It ie oertainly a blessing to have a
safe, reliable and cheap remedy for
coughs and colds near at hand at this
season of the year. Dr. Ball's Cough
Syrup has eminently proved itself to be
snch a remedy.

It will be seen from the above table
that Hon. Jos. B. Cumming’s majority
in the county is 513. He received ma
jorities at every precinct in the oonnty
except the 124th. The Constitution re
ceived 1.G07 majority; the Homestead
of 1877, 931, and Milledgeville 896.
It was hoped that tbe ballots in the
white and colored boxes would be count
ed separately, in order that the relative
vote in each might be accurately de
termined. It was decided, however, to
consolidate them and count them to
gether, so that this was therefore impos
sible. it was evident, however, that
Mr. Foster received a very largo major
ity in the colored box, while Major Gum
ming obtained a large majority in tbe
white box. The reason why Mr. Wright’s
vote ran behind that of Mr. Sibley was
owing to the fact that his name was
very generally scratebed from the tickets
deposited in the oolored box.
JeflerNon County.
The official returns of Jefferson coun
ty show that Maj. Cu Timing’s vote was
539 and Mr. Foster’s 537, giving Major
Camming a majority of 2 in that county.

BEAUTIFUL. WOMEN.
One at the Proponed Novelties of the French
Exhibition.
Paris, November 3.—The Spaniards
are understood to have memorialized M.
Krantz, Commissary General of next
year’s exhibition, to add an exhibition
of beautiful women to the other exhibits
of the gathering. The Spanish Minis
ter of Public Works is said to be warm
ly in favor of the idea; and intending
exhibitors are requested by the Spanish
newspapers to send in photographs as
candidates for admission without delay.
An appeal is to be addressed to all the
pretty women of the world to como for
ward aud show themselves to an admir
ing universe. There are to be sixty-one
grand prizes, thirty-one second prizes in
silver, one hundred acoessits, and two
hundred “honorable mentions,’’ The
jury is to be composed of two delegates
for each nation, one male and one fe
male. The admissions are to be decid
ed on the examination of two photo
graphs of each candidate; one full face
and the other in profile. Photo
graphs of the gainers of the sixty
oDe “grand prizes of beauty” are to
be exhibited in a “saloon of honor”
during twelve days, after which, in
company with the " second prizes,” the
“ second bests” and the “ honorable
mentions,” they will be enshrined in a
beautiful album ; ad hoc, a copy of this
album, superbly bound and got up,
will then be presented by the exhibi
tion authorities to each of the sover
eigns whose lady lieges have contribu
ted their beautiful selves to this show.
The same collection of photographs,
but less splendidly gotton up, will be
subsequently offered for sale to the
public iu general. To crown the whole,
there is to be added to the prizes, eto.,
just mentioned, a supreme “ prize of
honor,” to be adjudged to the most
beautiful of the competing beauties ;
the fair creature who has obtained this
“ supreme” award to be proclaimed the
“ Queenjof B/anty,” and is to be in
vited to make a triumphal appearance
in Paris itself, seated in a splendid
chariot, simulating a throne, drawn by
six maguificent Andalusian horses of
the finest breed, and followed by the
other beauties, recipients of tbe other
prizes.
The Vies of the Lemon.
Asa writer in the London Lancet re
marks, few people know the value of
lemon juioe. A piece of lemon bound
upon a corn will cure it in a few days;
it should be renewed night and morning.
A free use of lemon juice and sugar will
always relieve a cough. Most people
feel poorly in the Spring, bnt if they
would eat a lemon before breakfast
every day for a week—with or without
sugar, as they like—they would find it
better than any medicine. Li mon juice
used aecording to this receipt) will some
times cure consumption : Put a dozen
lemons into cold water and slowly bring
to a boil; boil slowly until the lemons
are soft, then squeeze until all the juice
is extracted, add sugar to your taste and
drink. Iu this way use one dozen
lemons a day. If they oanse pain or
I oosen the bowels too much, lessen the
quantity and use only five or six a day
until you are better, and then begin
agaiu with a dozen a day. After using
five or six dozen the patient will begin
to gain flesh aud enjoy food. Hold to
the lemons and still use them freely for
several weeks more. Another use of
lemons is for a refreshing drink in Sum
mer or in sickness at any time. Prepare
as directed above and add water and
Bugar. Bat in order to have this keep
well, after boiling the lemons squeeze
and strain them carefully; then to every
half pint of juioe add one pound of loaf
or crashed sugar, boil and stir a few
minutes more .until the sngar is dissolv
ed, skim carefully and bottle. You
will get more juioe from the lemons by
boiling them and the preparation keeps
better.
THE MORALITIES OF GAMBLERS.
Experiences of a Brooklyn Editor In John
Morrissey’s House.
| Brooklyn Eagle.]
The fact is that the proprietary gambler,
like Morrissey, is, in the true sense of the
term, no gambler at all. He simply pro
vides the means for otlier men to gamble,
•without taking any risk himself and he re
ceives his profits with precisely th same
certainty that the broker has or the mer
chant who sells on commission. He pro
vides a table and impliments. If it is faro,
his business is to take and pay bets made
between the players, reserving to himself
the profit of “splits” which recur with a cer
tainly that is marked with a fixed “percent
age.” His risk is almost nothing, his cer
tainty of gain fixed. There are few live
men who have not at some time bet money.
The practice of gaming in a small way'is
almost as common in the community as
that of eating. All classes, except a few
conscientiously strict, play the national
game of “poker.” N'e disgrace or reproach j
is implied in it. We do not argue that pro- 1
viding a gambling house, as Morrissey does,
is not reprehensible. It is highly so. The
law forbids it, and ihe Honorable John is
called frightful names because he breaks the
law, and does it openly. Yet people who
thus characterize him should remember that
after all it is not Morrissey who breaks the
law. but the men who patronize his house
and in obedience to the demands of whom
his house is open. The writer has seen at
one time in Morrissey’s gambling house
three clergymen, interested spectators of the
game of faro. One was a professor in a
well-known college. Another the principal
of a large seminary. The third was and is
the pastor of a thriving church. They were
not there simply for the purpose of learning
the facts of what they would denounce
They remained too long and exhibited too
keen an interest in the game and the excite
ment. Their names shall be kept a sacred
secret. But by their presence there, through
motives of curiosity, they were partakers
with the proprietor in the breaking of the
law.
We saw yesterday a strange freak of
natnre in the shape of a white wood
cock, with a brown ring abont its neck
and a tnft of partridge colored feathers
on the top of its head. It was killed
near the oity last Thursday by a oolored
banter named Gowdy,
Good material is always requisite to
great results. Yon may have the beet

and atUl have poor bread, cake, pastry,

Yeast Powder. With this last magic
element to give order, harmony and
nuion to the rest, the resnlt is a mathe
matical oertainty.

“GERMAN SYRUP.”
No other medicine in the world was
I ever given such a test of its curative
qualities as Bosohkb’s German Strep.
In three years two million four hundred
thousand small bottles of this medicine
was distributed free of charge by Drug
gists iu this country to those afflicted
with Consumption, Asthma, Croup,
severe Coughs, Pheumonia and other
diseases of the throat and lungs, giving
the American people undeniable proof
that German Syrup will cure them. The
result has been that Druggists in every
town and village in the United States
are recommending it to their customers.
Go to your Druggist, Barrett k Land,
and ask what they know abont it. Sam

A WRETCHED EXISTENCE.
Other conditions beirg eqnal, there
is no reason why a healthy man or wo
man should not enjoy life; and it may
well be doubted whether adverse for
tune has the power entirely to destroy
the happiness of one who sleeps soundly
and whose digestion is good. But for
the nervous, feeble, dyspeptic invalid
there is no comfort in life. His exist
ence is indeed a wretched c'na. But he
should not despair of relief. That be
nignant restorative, Hostetler's Stomach
Bitters, has imparted healthful vigor to
many a self-supposed incurable. It is
an unequalled builder up of broken

and kidney and bladder difficulties. It
eliminates from the blood the aeiid ele

Ooutkl Remarks.
Business has been flat this week. In our
last review we were lead to believe that the
outlook for the near future was more promis
ing, bnt onr experience in commercial observa
tions this week does not lead to an immediate
corroboration of that expectation. It was
thought that the fall force of the busy season,
so long retarded by backwardness* of the
crop, would soon break upon ns. It was hoped
that the approach of the holidays of the year
would stimulate trade in every dupartment. It
was supposed that the change of freight dis
criminations against Anguata would work won
ders in business marts. That the last named
advantage will ultimately contribute to in
crease onr prosperity, there is no reason for
donbting ; it will, however, require time to be
fully availed.
It most also be recollected that the busi
ness season was far advanced before this
change was made. Hereafter, we trust we
shall have nothing to oomplain of in this con
nection. Reference to onr daily cotton re
ports show not much improvement in re
ceipts. The crop, worse tfc.an backward, is
small. Continuing bad weather during the
early part of the week interfered greatly with
trade of all kinds and this, together with the
political excitement, net only here, but all
over the State, has prevented business from
showing a beaming front lately.
Daring the past two days, however, trade
has been more active. Prices in every branch
continue abont the same, staple articles un
dergoing little or no change.
In the money markets price of exchange has
raised somewhat, rates being f to } and I to
par. The fact that cotton hoaeas from
abroad are represented by buyers in
nearly all of the interior towna of the State,
who meet the cotton producer at his very
gate, interferes greatly with the oity exchange
business, where checks were formerly drawn,
and prevents anything like an uniform market
here. In money markets there is bnt little
change, with, perhaps, a mere steady baais for
deposits. Money readily brings 13 per cent,
all round. Business over hank counters is
now largely marked by renewals of paper, bnt
little real commercial paper being handled.
In the bond and stock market there is a fair
demand for good securities—Georgia Railroad
and Central Railroad stock ruling doll with
lower prices.
The cotton market has been comparatively
light daring the week, the prevailing tone
being firm. Total receipts sinoe September
Ist amount to 86,276; last year, 120,856, show
ing a difference of 34,086 bales. Last week
the difference was 30,288. The provision
market is quiet, with bnt few ehanges in sta
ple prices. Business in other departments
moderately good.
