Our Bronze is compos ed of pure Oast Zinc, which differs mate- rially from the commercial article, being refined especially for our own use, and it is : also an entirely different article from the < sheet zinc, which is an amalgam, whilst ours is a Pure Metal, like Gold and Silver.

The Atlanta Herald is putting in some fancy French words that will cause its morning contemporaries in Augusta, Ma con and Atlanta to revise their dictiona ries. Mr. Stephens says, Mr. Speer never read liis dispatch to the Independent Junta to him before he sent it. He told Mr. Speer lie could send nothing as coming from him. Many a noble life has been wrecked ere it reached the zenith, by visions of troub les that never came. Many a battle has been won by an enemy who never was in sight. _ The Independents, hoped they would cap ture Mr. Stephens, but they were captured by him. As a diplomat, our Uncle Aleck would hold the four aces in a game with Talleyrand, Gortschakoff or Beaconsfield. The Independent Junta denounces rings, cliques, etc., and yet they have formed a silent copartnership with tho Republican party, wldch is a huge combination of all the corrupt rings and cliques in the Uni ted States. We have received several numbers of the Daily Herald, a new evening paper, pub lished in Atlanta, and edited by Mr. C. H. Williams and Mr. Sam Small. It is a lively and ably edited journal, and gives prom ise of usefulness. We hope it will take firm loot, and flourish to a green old age. The cabinet has agreed upon tho follow ing members of the tariff commission: John L. Hayes, of Mass.; Henry W. Oli ver, of l’enn.; A. M. Garland, of 111.; Rob ert P. Porter, District of Columbia; Alexan der Mitchell, of Wisconsin; John S. Phelps, of Missouri; James Chesnut, Jr., of South Carolina. The list will probably be com pleted by William A. Wheeler, of Now York and J. A. Amble of Ohio. The Government method prescribed for cleaning brass, and in use at all the Unit ed States arsenals, is claimed to be the best in the world. The plan is to make a mix ture of one part common nitric .acid and one-half part sulphuric acid in a stone jar, having also ready a pail of fresh water and a box of sawdust. The articles to be treat ed aie dipped into the acid, then removed into the water, after which they are rub bed with sawdust. This Immediately changes (them to a brilliant color. If the brass lias become greasy, it is first dipped in a strong solution of potash and soda in warm water; this cuts tho grease, so that the acid lias free power to act. The Post-Appeal evidently does not want the Democratic Convention of July 19th, to nominate Mr. Stephens for Governor. It is now working with all its might to disgust, if possible, the organized demo cracy with Mr. Stephens,by taunting them with the fact that he is their (the Post-Ap peal’*-) <:irididate, as if that fact was suffi cient to disgust any deeent democrat with Mr. Stephens. Mr. Stephens and Mr. Thornton are two very different men, and nobody is better satisfied of that fact than the true Democracy of Georgia. Several large firms in Philadelphia make a substitute for butterine. ' In its manu facture they use the best beef oil, togeth er with some real butter and milk. It is made a beautiful yellow, and. is sold at 18 cents per pound. It is a good deal bot- than ordinary butter. There is a great de mand for it, and it is used by many people, who cannot afford to pay 45 cents for dairy butter. Sehollerberg- er & Son., oueof the manufacturers, claims that the manufacture of butterine is a public benefit. _ A Greek set fire to the Temple of Diana and tho most magnificent edifice in the world was destroyed. When asked tiis mo tive he replied that he fired the temple to attain immortality. He wanted to become famous and knew of no other way of becoming so except by MR. STEPHENS FOR GOVERNOR. The nomination of Mr. Stephens for Governor should be, and doubtless will be, most acceptable to tho Democrats of Georgia and the whole Union. Endowed by nature with a grand intellect in a frail body of wonderful vitality, Mr. Stephens has breasted the political storms or half a century. It would be unnecessary to re view in detail the events of his life, but perhaps, it is well to recall a few promi nent points in his great career. No one who studies the life of Mr. Stephens can fail to discover that he Is a man or re markable foresight and judgment. When the old whig party was dissolved, Mr. Stephens attached himself to the Demo cratic part}-. In the contest of 1860, he was a supporter of Mr. Douglas for Presi dent, and upon recurring to the events of that day, no Democrat can fail to lament that the party did not unanimously nomi nate and support the Illinois chieftain. Had that been done ho would have been elected and the war averted. Again, in 1861, Mr. Stephons opposed the policy, while he admitted the right, of seperate State secession. Had his counsels been followed a compromise probably would have been effected, and the bloody drama which followed changed into an era of peace and fraternity. The nomination of Mr. Stephens is es pecially acceptable because he is a Demo crat with Democratic principles. Some of the Democrats of the present day are more or less imbued with tho principles of tho Republican party, protection of mo nopoly at tho expense of the people, a sur render of State rights, and an acknowl edgement and acquiescence in the com plete and absolute supremacy of tho Fed eral government In all essential matters. These latter day Democrats view the States as provinces. This is consolidation, and centralization, and will ultimately lead, if not corrected and checked, to des potism. Mr. Stephons is a pure, undefiled, States-right Democrat. This is no guess. His principles are fully set forth in his work on the “War between tho States.” He does not subscribe to the doctrine that might makes right, and that a minority have no rights that a majority should re spect. Mr. Stephens is a philanthropist in its broadest sense. He believes in absolute freedom of conscience, religion, speech and action, within the bounds of law found ed on liberty. With a kindly nature, a charitable heart, a ripe experience and an unsullied name, ho is a bright example of pure Democracy, and wiii make a govern or of the whole people. THE SOUTH AND WEST. The South directed the general policy of the United States government from the time of the formation of the Union to the period of the war. But tho business poli cy of the government, laws in regard to navigation, fisheries, and tariff’s, it not ab solutely controlled, at least were moulded by the influence of the Eastern States. During and slnco the war this latter Influ ence has been strengthened and increased, and has been the dominant power of the laud. Under it, tho Eastern States have become populous, rich and powerful, most ly at tho expense of the people of tho sec tions. Tho New England people arc re markable for their talent and energy. Em igrants from the Eastern to tho Western States have generally been the ruling ele ment In tho latter. But this condition or affairs is beginning to change. The cen tre of population, and the centre of power, is travelling westward. This has been produced in great part by the immense immigration from Europe, which general ly finds a resting piaco in the prairies and wheat fields of the West. The population of the South has also greatly Increased, much more than was anticipated. The East is essentially a manufacturing sec tion, while the South and West are chiefly agricultural. The agricultural population of this country has been greatly imposed upon by that class legislation of Congress for the past twenty years. Tho time is coming, indeed it is here, when tho South and West will eombine to protect the in terests of the people of those sections from the exactions which are now imposed up on them. The Mississippi river, and its tributaries, water the land occupied by one-half of the population of the United States. This great waterway should be improved and perfected, and made tha great highway of commerce In this coun try. The signs of the times indicate that within a few years, the legislation of Con gress wfil be corrected, so that the bless ings and the burdens of the government will descend in an equal proportion upon ail the people of all the sections. THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK NORTH AND SOUTH. The condition and prospects of the Dem ocratic party have never been so bright and promising since the war as they now are. The prospect of the control of the next House of Representatives and the election of the next President is cheering. That tho South wiii be solid in the next Presidential contest is assured. Virginia went for the Readjusters upon a local debt issue, but a large majority of the voters of that State are allied to the National Democracy in a National contest. In no Southern State' do the Republicans stand a chance to carry the election. In the North the division between tho stalwarts and moderate Republicans, the attitude of the Republicans in regard to the social habits of the people, the extravagance of the Republican Administration, and the heavy burdens laid upon the poor for the benefit of the rich, have produced an im pression upon the public mind that will insure one-third if not one-half of tho Northern States to the Democratic can didate. Conkling saved New York to Gar field at tho last election, and it is reasona bly certain that the vote of this State will bo cast for the Democratic candidate at the next election. The bitterness between Conkling and his opponents In the Repub lican party cannot be healed by that time. Indiana and Ohio are considered safe for the Democrats because of the alienation of the German vote from the Republicans, on account of the interfer ence of that party with tiieir social cus toms and habits. Ail of the Pacific States are put down as safe for the Democrats on account of the attitude of Arthur, and the majority of the Republicans, on tiie sub ject of Chinese immigration. Iu Pennsyl vania theie is a division between Boss Cameron and a large body of Republicans, who are tired of his despotism and his dul- ness. In close States such as New Jersey, Connecticut and New Hampshire, the chances of the Democrats are as good as those of the Republicans. The election of a Democratic President may be consider ed as a foregone conclusion. Ail that is re quired is good management, or the ab sence of bad management. It is only a question of majority. The majority may be small, but it is more likely to reach two- thirds or the Electoral College. With the President and both Houses of Congress, the Democrats will enter upon a lease of power for an indefinite period. The bur dens of taxation will be regulated and re duced, the business interests of the coun try will bo protected, but not changed into heartless and grinding monopolies, and the expenses of the government will be reduced to the plane of economy.

The committee of revised proposed to droop the word ‘South’ from the name and to change tho name from the Methodist Episcopal to the Epis copal Methodist. Juige Wnitworth favor ed the change and thought 400,000 negroes in the South would join tho church but would not so long as the name remained as it now is. Several spoke on both sides. The following was finally adopted on mo tion of Dr. McFerrin. Resolved, That the matter of a change of name of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, to Episcopal Methodist Church, be referred to the various General Conferences by the Bishops during the ensuing four years, ami that they report the result to ’tlio General Conference in 1889; and further resoived, tlie name, if changed, shall be the Methodist Episcopal Church or Amer ica.

In the annals of parties, perhaps no one ever existed more remarkable than the Re publican party of this country, save per haps the Jacobin party in France. From its very birth it has been a i evolutionary and unconstitutional party. Allot its im portant acts have been done outside of the Constitution and in defiance of the law of the land. Before the war the Republicans spit upon the Constitution, violated their solemn oaths to support it, and boldly ap pealed to a higher law. The war upon ihe South, the emancipation of the slaves, and the so-called reconstruction of the se ceded States, were done In violation of the supreme law of the land. Thad. Stevens, the Republican leader after the war, bold ly proclaimed that his party was acting outside of the Constitution. Gen. Grant established a military administration, and the last act performed under his re gime was the theft ot tho Presidency, and the induction into that office of a man who had I een defeated at the polls. Tho last outrage performed by this party is the ar bitrary proceedings in tho case of Mackey vs. Dibble. Finding that they could not seat Mackey upon forged testimony by the rules or the House, they have over thrown the rules iu order to accomplish their object. Tho rules of the House pro vide, that no rule eau be suspended except by a two-thirds majority, and yet the Speaker by an arbitrary decision has brushed away the rules allowing certain motions to be made, the rules have been forcibly changed by a fractional vote, and tho way made easy for the bare Republi can majority to perpetrate whatever out rages they may feel disposed to do. This violent and corrupt party lias been kept in power by the vast official patronage of the government, by force and fraud when nec essary, and by the liberal expenditure of money by those who get tha offices, the contracts, and whose business is benefitted by unjust and partial legislation. But the day of reckoning will come. The tide will come, and swelling as it flows, will sweep forever from power a party which has stained the history of America with un numbered crimes. It is very evident that the people of Georgia, with a unity approximating una nimity, desire Mr. Stephens to be their next Governor. While the human miud inStinct- ively worships a Supreme Being, the hu man intellect loves to admire some man em inent among his fellows. The French loved and admired Napoleon, and were equally ready to follow him to the north pole or to the southern deserts. Calhoun was the political guide in South Carolina, as was Clay in Kentucky. The people of Georgia are not hero worshippers, but Mr. Ste phens is a political apostle in their estima tion. He fills the bill of a popular leader, who our people delight to follow and hon or. His venerable years passed in tho ser vice of his country; his broad philanthro py, which like the canopy of heaven, em braces all climes, all nations and all creeds; his historic deeds mingled with the most thrilling periods of his country’s history; his unselfish charity which has educated numbers of young men; his cordial hospi tality whieli has made his home Liberty Hall in truth, as well as in name; his burn ing eloquence and trumpet tongue of for mer days, which still linger in the memory of his contemporaries; his spotless integ rity, unsullied name, frail body, and last not least his steadfast devotion to the principles of the Democratic party, have all united and contributed to make him the favorite son of Georgia. When Congress adjourns and he returns to Georgia, his journey through the State will be a trium phal march, like the march of Napoleon from Elba to Paris. THE CARROLLTON HANGING. Hanvey and Moon, the two white mur derers, were to have been hung at Carroll ton, Ga., last Friday. Moon took poison, and was too ill to be hanged. Gov. CONGRESSIONAL. Washington, D, C., May 29.—House.— Mr. Reed, of Maine, cuffed up for consider ation the proposed amendment to the rule prohibiting dilatory motions on a- contested election case. Mr. Blackburn made a motion to adjourn tiff Wednesday, yeas, 2; nays, 145. Mr. Randall moved to adjourn to Thursday. Mr. Reed made the point of order that on a proposition to a- mend the rules, dilatory motions cannot be entertained. Mr. Randall denied the right of the speaker to place such a con struction upon his motion. Mr. Reed pro posed to discuss the point of order, and the speaker said he would not limit the de bate to less than one hour on each side. Mr. Rood opened tho discussion. He claimed that the constitution devolved the duty on the House to judgeof the qualification of its members. That the House had for days been attempting to perform that duty. Tho best way to effect that was to amend the rules. It was tho duty of the speaker to carry into effect the constitution. Ho quoted ex-speaker Randall, who refused to allow dilatory motions to defeat the report of tiie electoral commission. Also a decision of ex-speaker Blaine that dilatory motions could not be made pending a prop osition to change the rules. Mr. Randall replied to Mr. Reed. He argued that just as the constitution prescribed the manner in which it should be amended, so the rules prescribed the manner in which 1 hey should be amended. As to his decision in regard to the electoral count, he had put it on the ground that tho law under which the House was then acting was greater than the rules, and cut off dilatory motions. As to Mr. Blaine’s ruling or rather dictum, it was not pressed and after that it was conceded that only by a two-thirds vote could dila tory motions be cut off. Mr. Kasson ar gued that under the present system the minority could block the legislation of the House, and nothing would be left for tho House to do but adjourn and leave the government to perish. Mr. Carlisle, of Kentucky, said the House was bound by its rules. If the majority could, in the at tempt to take up the contested election case, change the ruls in order to establish a new method of proceeding, it could step in in the midst of the appropriation bill and change the rules that govern the proceed ings of the House in consideration of that measure, and so it would go on a nd on, un til the rules were frittered away and there would be nothing to govern the proceed ings of tiie House hut tho arbitrary will of a majority. The right of the minority to protect itself by a resort to parliamen tary process was an unquestioned right in this country. Mr. Blackburn, of Ky., said it required a two-thirds majority to sus pend any rule for one hour, but now it was claimed a majority, of one, could change or abrogate all rules. The discussion was continued by Haskell, of Kansas; Robe- son,_ of New Jersey; Cox, of New York; Hazelton, of Wisconsin; Robinson, of Mass.; and Randall, of Penn. Reed of Maine closed the discussion. The speaker made a decision sustaining Mr. Reed’s point of order—that dilatory motions can not be made to prevent a change of rules. Mr. Randall appealed from the decision of tho chair, and Mr. Reed moved to lay the appeal on the table, yeas 150, nays none. After the announcement of the vote Mr. Cox, of New York, presented a protest signed by over one hundred Democratic members against the ruling of the speaker. The report of the commitee on rules, was adopted. Yeas, 150; nays, 2. Adjourned. Washington, D. C., May 26 House.— There was an angry colloquy between Mess. Randall of Penn., and Marsh, of Il linois ; and much confusion in the House, which arose from Mr. Moore, of Tenn., speaking or the Southern Democrats as those latelv in rebellion against the Gov ernment. Mr. Miller ot Penn., made a threatening remark in relation to the Dem ocrats, which called forth a rebuke from the speaker in reference to the disorder in the House. Mr. Blackburn, of Ky., in or der to settle the difficulty offered a resolu tion to appoint a committee of five mem bers, to investigate aliedged alteration mid forgery of the evidence in tiie Mackey Dib ble case. There was much confusion in the House, the Republicans being averse to tiie resolution, and finally amid the noise the House adjourned May 27. Mr. Reed, of Maine, made a report from the com mittee on rules. Mr. Kenna, of West Virginia, moved to take a recess. The sneaker refused to put the motion, and Mr. Kenna appealed from the decision of the chair. The chair refus ed to entertain the appeal, and the report i was read to amend the rules to tiie effect tfiat in considering a contested election ease pending a motion to suspend the rules, and pending a motion for the previous question, the speaker may entertain one motion to adjourn, but after the result is i,ia nocfm.np/iu announced, he shall not entertain another Colquitt ordered his execution postponed , motion unt n the vote is taken outhe pend- Three or four hundred colored Republi cans met at Douglas Hall in Augusta on the night of May 29.

Here is the way they selected their dresses for the au gust occasion; Giteau could not have been more esthetic: They both selected black suits and Moon said lie wanted a dress coat, as a sack never looked well upon him and he also selected low quartered shoes, and Hanvey selected a broad brim straw hat, dress coat, black pants and low quar tered shoes.
