Macon, our sister city, is growing in
commercial importance more rapidly
than any city in Georgia at this time.
There is a struggle to be at the front in
the progress of improvement and the con
test is an excited one though honest and
fair. The new buildings, and the new
mercantile firms that have been added to
that city in the last twelve months would
astonish a stranger who had not visited the
city in that length of time. Her merchants
advertise liberally, and her military and
firemen can raise money without any
trouble. Macon is a splendid city and
bless her.
When we went to market the Gotton crop promised to bo very large, and we naturally bought largely.
, , Fifteen days later, on our retrrn home, we found the crop suffering from the excessive drought, and
money. The tide is against them, and Mr. i Mrs. .T. E. Miles, formerly Miss Mary B- ■ Hr nmrnv to be cut off one-third. In view of these facts, we have concluded to cut iu prices, and

At the beginning of the Season. V e liave au immense pile of
committee to stop talking and begin to
buy as fast as they can. Pension Com
missioner Dudley, eapt. Oglevoe and oth
ers under their direction, are parcelling
out the money Ior certain leading coun
ties that chiefly contributed to the elec
tion of Gor. Hoadiey. They have the
filthy lucre in abundance and know how to
use it. This iff shameful but wo must fight
the devil with firer The Democrats will
be justified in this, for the prosperity of
the country demands it. The very able
and faithful Democrat, McCIean would
not go to New York on such a mission as
this if he did not see the danger. The Cin
cinnati Enquirer, conducted by him, has
no superior in the (Vest in upholding the
Democratic Banner.
In the platform adopted by the Ameri
can Political Alliance which has nominated
Capt. IV. T. Ellsworth of Pennsylvania for
President, and Charles H. Waterman of
of New York for Vice President of the
United States, wenotice the following:
We demand the repeal of all the present
naturalization laws and tho passage of an
act by congress of the United States mak
ing a residence of 21 years necessary to
enable foreigners to vote or hold official
positions in this country except when
such foreign-born citizens have served in
the army or navy ot the United States.
They also propose the passage of act by
Congress prohibiting the formation of polit
ical organization* composed of foreigners
exclusively: the rights of suffrage to Am
erican born females, the same as the
males; opposition to the importation and
attempted colonization of foreigners and
paupers from foreign countries and abso
lute supptession of Chinese emigration;
opportunity to vote direct for President
and Vice-President of tho United States,
through and by an amendment to the con
stitution of the United States.
They also favor the passage of a law to
the effect, that Native born citizens,
white and coloied, shall rule and make the
laws of this country, <kc.. Wo publish this
merely to show the main principles of this
American Alliance Party. The first men
tioned proposition is nearly akin to the
old and detested Alien and Sedition laws.
Much of the statement is set forth in a tan
gled style but we infer they would allow
the ballot to American born women the
same as males, but would deny it to for
eign born women, and also, they oppose
the importatation and colonization of for
eigners. They favor an alteration of the
Constitution so that tho people shall vote
direct for President and Vico President
dispensing with the present electoral plan.
It is not likely that this Alliance party-
will ever get strength enough t,> last
through the campaign. They may tum
ble about for a while but it will be tumb
ling up hill ail the time.
Warthen of this county and the daughter
of Hon. Richard Wartiten, died In Tallade

reached the city on Wednesday last, and

WILKINSON.
From the southerner.
Mr. George Everett, of the extensive
dry goods house of Cline & Oo., Mllledge-
viiie, spent a couple of cUiys recently with
friends in Irwinton. . j }| }|||||
Mrs. Aurora Snow, who lias suffered so
long with, typhoid fever, died, at her hqme
in Gordon last Wednesday morning. She
was sick about eight weeks.
Business is very dull now. There never
was such complaint of poor crops as is
heard among the farmers at present; due
to the August and September drought.
The negroes confined in jail here made
their escape last Wednesday night. They
have not been heard from since.
Henry Green, col., several weeks since,
shot and seriously wounded a negro wom
an living on the plantation of 8. J. Foun
tain in tills county. The would-bc mur
derer made his escape and emigrated to
Laurens county where he was arrested,
and on Tuesday was brought to Irwinton
and lodged in jail.—We fail to learn his
reasons of shooting the woman. She will
recover.
HANCOCK.
From the Ishmmllte.
Miss J. Buck, of Mitledgoville, is visit
ing Mr. C. Prosser’s family.
The hot, dry weather lias cut short the
pea, potato, ground-pen, sugar-cane and
late coi n crops.
A very large number or fowls have died
in Hancock this year. The fatality among
them was never so great. The disease is
something unusual.
Dr. J. T. Andrews has a hen that iayed
four eggs in two days last week. Two
eggs were laid within an hour of each oth
er.
Young Thomas Alexander, son of the
man of the same name who once lived in
Hancock, shot himself In Atlanta last Sat
urday. It is feared the wound will result
fatally.
Dr. il. D. Alien, of Baldwin, made us a
short visit on Thursday last. We are al
ways glad to see the Doctor. The sight
of him brings to memory better days.
Dr. James Duggan from Toombsboro
made his brother, Prof. I. W. Duggan a
visit last week. I learn the doctor is jR the
lookout for a home, having 6old his place
in Wilkinson county.
Tho two last items aro reported from
Linton. U. &. R.
Carl Schurz has received a most cordial
greeting everywhere in Ohio. He is do
ing a most wonderful work wherever he
goes. He was present, he said, at the
birth of tho Republican party and has
Stood by it until the nomination or Blaine.
He says he opposes Blaine from a sense of
public duty. Blaine represents the worst
elements of the Republican party and
Cleveland the best elements of the Demo
cratic party.” Schurz is an able and pow
erful speaker and is exercising a gr*?at in
fluence in Ohio.
Mr. Blaine’s Canvass.—The publica
tion of the Mulligan letters, as they are
called, presents a series of facts apparent
ly damaging to Mr. Blaine’s reputation.
Are those statements false or true? They
cannot be false if the letters attributed to
Mr. Blaine were, really written by him.
Mr. Blaine will not probably deny their
authenticity. What can he say in justifi
cation? Ho is on trial before the Atuerl-
c in people. He has started on an election
eering tour. He is to go to Ohio and oth-
i>r Western States and will probably ad
dress the people in sections he will visit.
If he fails to notice the damaging facts
contained in those letters, it will be an ad
mission on his part or their truth, and it
will be left to the people to decide upon
his guilt or innocence as set forth in his
written declarations. We wait to set;
what lie may say or leave unnoticed. His
conduct as exhibited In those letters,
Is condemned. Can he show any injustice
in this condemnation? His letters exhibit
a print of guilt. As democrats seeking to
defeat him for the Presidency upon great
political principles,' we would bo glad, so
far as these scandalous matters, are con
cerned, If he could show that he is as pure
as snow upon an Alpine summit. We
would prefer to defeat him without degra
ding him.
The Prohibition Candidate.—Mr.
J. P. Bt, John, the prohibition candidate is
making a very active canvass. He thinks
he will get moro votes in Western New

sovereign remedy in my family. For many
mouths my wife has suffered from weak lungs,
and has experienced great difficulty in breathing,
so much so that she could not sleep at ail at
night; she also lost her appetite, ami, in fact,
her condition was truly alarming. The Lung
Restorer having been recommended by several
fnendg, I.resalve<l toget it and test its virtues,
which I did, and with the most happy effect.
Shelias taken bnt two bottles, and the re-edt is
wouUerfni. She now experience* no difficulty
in breathing, l.er appetite is good, and She is
t-hpid!y regaining her Strength, and T am*eon-
viimed its.eontiuued use will effect a permanent
cure. I would, therefore, cheerfully recommend
it to all who have weak lnfigs, as it? cannot fad
to lie of great liencOL to all w ho may give it a
talal. Yours trelv,
