Will not give this gift to me.

In your glorious womanhood,
Rhine down on me—yes, upon me—
Teach me all things true and good.

May I come, and to a home

thriving towns on the Eltw*rton Railroad, who
is noted for his sjmpathetic nature, while
passing along one of the streets of that town,
last week, heard the remote and indistinct, yet
plaintive, squeal of a pig Being unable to
distinguish from what particular point the cry-
proceeded, our good-natured friend at once in
stituted a careful search for the whereabouts
of the seemingly distressed animal, and
was shocked to find t hat the pig had fallen
into a twenty feet well, affording about
four feet of water. The well was furnished
with a wooden curb, which was supported by a
number of pieers of 5quare timlsrr nailed at
convenient distances to the curb to keep it in
position. Our friend took in the situation at a
glance, and at once determined to rescue the
unfortunate pig. by descending the well with
out delay, by means of the aforesaid wooden
supi>ort»-rs. which were fastened diagonally
crosswise the well. He had descended a little
below one-half the depth of the well when one
of the supports upon which he was resting his
weight suddenly gave way. and our friend,
without further effort or trouble, accomplished
the lull measure of his journey. Receiving
no Injury from his fall, he immediately took
position in the centre of the well, standing in
four feet water, and holiing the pig ac arm’s
length out of the water, to prevent its drown
ing. He, liims If, then set up a lusty cry for
help, but being unable to make himself neard
during the long hours of the morning, he ‘held
tie fort,'aud his pig too. until the evening
t-hadows l>egan to api*ear. when fortunately a
small boy on hunt of the family milch cow
happened to pass near the well, and ht-ard the
faint cry of ‘v.hop-ee,’ proceeding from its
mysterious depths, which so alarmed the
urchin that his cries aroused the town ami led
to the rescue of our amiable friend and his
embryo 'porker.* ”
Thoraasviile Times: “On Tuesday night,
about 10 o’clock, occurred one of the most
brilliant and dazzling displays of electricity we
have ever seen. The display continued until
about midnight, 'j he whole heart ns were
lighted up. Sheet after sheet of livid lightning
played hither and thither. It came aud went,
lifei-ally. with lightning like rapidity. Crash
after crash was beaid, as the fiery bolts Struck
in different localities. On Smith avenue, on
Mr. Dekle s Jot, a magnificent live oak was
shattered; a tall pine in front of Captain
Sapp's attracted the fiery current and it is
withered to its roots: another tree wss
struck—so w e learn—in the old cemetery. One
of the murderous bolts struek down and in-
s'antly killed ‘Bob Tooinb»,’ Judge H. W. Hop
kins' well-known trotter, in bis father's stable
lot. The black, hurrving clouds, as they rolled
aloDg before the might}- volume of wind: the
heavy thuuder claps, folk.wing each other in
quick and deafening succession, and tlie con
stantly recurring Hashes of lightning, lighting
up with a strange lurid glare both earth and
sky, made a scene which few who witnessed it
will soon forget. A rainfall of about one inch
fell during the night.’*
Madison Madisonian: “Hon. John A. Jones,
one of Georgia's most distinguished jurists in
his day, a gentleman of fine culture and ex
tensive personal and political influence, died
at his residence in Bockmart last week in the
ninety-fourth year of his age. Thus one ty
one the «.l 1 statesmen who connected the past
with the present are dropping <,ff. and soon
not one will be left as a ine i euto of Georgia's
brilliant past. The first time we ever saw
Judge Jones was in 1843. when he and Hon. A.
II. Stephens had a political discussion at Van
Wert, wo believe, on the occasion of Mr.
Stephens’ first candidacy for Congress on the
general ticket—the former a Democrat, the
latter at that time a Whig.”
Rome Bulletin: “A few days ago Mr. Lowry,
bridge keeper at the foot of Broad street, pur
chased a watermelon, and upon cutting it
open there were the letters M and W plainly
and distinctly engraved upon it iinmediat-ly in
the heart of the tueloD. The traces of the
letters were large enough in which to imbed
the little finger. One of the 3 oung ladies
present said she did not want any more such
melons— she thought it betokened something
ominous.'*
The Hamilton Journal says: “Sunday morn
ing last two negro boys were p'ayiug with a
pistol, when it went off, the ball hitting one of
them centrally in the forehead, penetrating
and longing in the outer Giell 01 tho skull.
Tlie ball was removed by I)r Copeland in a
flattened condition. Had it hit the boy else
where it might have hurt him. It certainly
would have hurt the ball less.*’
Florida Affairs.
It is stated that Hon. W. D. Bloxham was the
first man to establish a free school in Flori Ja.
He did so in lM'^, furnished a school house and
books.and paid the teacher. His former claves
were the pupils.
The Tallahassee Floridian says that planters
in that section are jubilant whenever they can
get time to think about it. The fine weather is
opening the cotton very fast, the caterpillars
have done less damage than was anticipated'
the rust has stopped its ravages, and every
thing promises the safe harvt sting of a fair
crop. Labor is slightly unreliable on account
of the numerous political meetings, and there
is some fear of a hurricane in September, but
generally the feeling is hopeful and everybody
is busy.
A small blaze w as started in a house iu St.
Augustine a few nights ago, caueed, it is
thought, by a large cockroach gnawing off the
heads of some matches which were lying on
the tloor. The snap of one of the matches
awakened the occupant of the room, and he
put out the fire before it did any harm. 1 he
Press tells this story.
The Sun and Press still keeps its readers
well posted regarding political affairs in Maine.
Those ot Florida are a secondary considera
tion.
The Jacksonville Telephone estimates that
crop returns next fall will show a large in
crease in the production of rice in Duval coun
ty. This industry, it says, is an important one,
and as the jroducer becomes fully satisfied
that a ready home market may be obtained for
it. its culture will rapidly increase in that and
adjoining counties An article that can be
produced and sold at home at fair prices,
should be* largely planted and cultivated.
It is slated, says the Monticello Constitution,
that the Republicans of Jefferson county are
afraid to nominate a ticket for the Legislature.
8cores are seeking the honor, but just so soon
as a convention designates a ticket, a half
dozen independent tickets will enter the field.
Consequently, the leaders propose to postpone
a nomination until just before the day of elec
tion.
The Jacksonville Union says that the 8tate
Commissioner of Immigration, Dr. Seth
French, lias received since the first of August,
two hundred and fifty-two letters from per
sons living in twenty-nine different States,
Canada and England. Of these letters thirty-
five announce that the writers expect to come
with the'r families to Florida the approaching
winter, to make their home in that sunny State.
The Union thinks that there Is evidently an
error somewhere in the census returns of Jack
sonville. It wants a new enumeration ordered.
A correspondent from Banana, Putnam coun
ty, writes that cotton in that section is rusting
badly. The first bale was shipped from that
place on the 18th instant by Mr. A. J. McRae.
The remains of Mr. Ed. Turner, who was
mortally wounded by a drunken negro in Lees
burg a short time since, were brought to Jack
sonville a few days ago and interred. Israelit-
isli burial rites were performed at the ceme
tery. 1 he body w j.i probably be forwarded
North next fall.
Strict quarantine has been established be
tween Key West and Nassau. N. P.. on account
of the report that fever of a malignant type
had appeared in the latter place.
The St. Augustine Weekly reports a fatal ac
cident at St. Francis barracks a few mornings
since. It seems that Corporal Hoffman came
into a room where private Donovan, of the
Fifth Artillery was lying, and taking up a pis
tol started out. By some accident the weapon
was discharged, inflicting a wound in Dono
van's head. He immediately became uncon
scious. and died in a short time.
The Fernandina Mirror thinks that in carry
ing out civil service reform in Florida *he Radi
cals are doing “a retail business.” It says:
“The present Radical Executive Committee
are not good financial party men. Instead of
writing courteous appeals for ten dollars to
crossroad postmasters, they should assess and
demand a sum according to the rank of office
and ability of the candidate, especially as
most of the State and Congressional nominees
have been large beneficiaries of the party, r or
instance. Conover, Treasurer. Representative,
United States Senator: Ledwitn. United States
Cotton Agent. Sheriff, Representative: Bisbee,
United States Attorney, Railroad Attorney.etc.
The old Chairman cf the Radical Executive
Committee did not pass around the hat for
coppers, but demanded rouod sums from the
leauers, and he got his demand.”
Pensacola Gazette: “A combat between a jat
and a snake took place in Mr. George W. Caro's
yard yesterday. The cat came unexpectedly
upon the snake, which was about two feet in
length, and retreated for an instant. Recov
ering from her momentary alarm, she pounced
upon the serpent aDd caught him by the back
of the neck. He managed to wrigple away
from her, and, in the language of Uncle Re
mus, ‘dardey had it up an* down.’ The cat
eluded every attempt of the snake to strike
her, warding off his head with her paw, and
catching him, before he could recoil, by the
neck. Finally Mr. Caro, fearing that his pet
kitty might get hurt, separated the two, and
the snake escaped in the high grass. After the
cat was released by her master, she instituted
a search for that snake, but failed to find it.”
The following notice, signed by the President
of the Board of Health and Mayor of the town,
has been handed to tlie undertakers and grave
diggers of St. A gustiue: “It having become
known that in one or perhaps all the cemeteries
of this city, the remains cf the dead are fre
quently exhumed, and the people are exposed
to con’aglon and death as a consequence, even
in cases where the dead expired from common
diseases: but we are now in greater danger
from the large number in our graveyards of
those who died of yellow fever. Therefore,
the Board of Health issue to you this notice of
warning, that especial care should be exercised
by those whose duties lie in this direction, to
carefully guard against opening any grave or
moving the earth at all near any grave con
taining the remains of any one who has died
of that disease—for a single hair could open
upon us at any time that fell destroyer, and
depopulate ©ur city.”
Monticello Constitution: “We believe that
it is right and proper that all classes of people
should be permitted to assemble at any and all
reasonable times, for the discussion of ques
tions of legitimate public policy, and they
should be assisted and protected in said right
—an inalienable right of freemen: but this ac
knowledged right can be perverted. On last
Monday night, in this town, a Radical club
meeting was utilized to stir up the basest of
human passions, by incendiary appeals to the
ignorant and vicious. The reputations of a
portion of our white population was made the
theme of a blackguard speaker, and who hurl
ed his anathemas right and left with Cenpo ut
terance and abandon, which would have se
cured for him a cracked skull, if our Demo
cratic citizens wore not so thoroughly imbued
with the principles and spirit of conservatism.
Ills utterances were exceedingly incendiary,
and if ever repeated trouble may ensue. We
believe in forbearance, but it sometimes ceases
to be a virtue.
Firrida Union: “The people ot this unhappy
State, who have been worried beyond measure
by the long railroad litigation, may now begin
to rejoice. Mr. Cheney is going to straighten
tilings out through the aid of one Frank K
Sherwin. who professes to l»e the agent of the
Dutch bondholders, and who will not ODly un
ceremoniously squelch U. D. Willard aud over
turn the Central i tail road Company, but who,
io great kindne*9 of heart, will find use for his
enormous excess *f capital in extending the
Jacksonville. Pen.-acoiaaod Mobile Railroad to
Pensacola. Mr. Rherwin’s last appearance iu
Florida included the last month of Governor
Stearns* and the first few weeks of Governor
Drew's administration He was spoken of
then as agent of the Dutch bondholders, and
was said to have made some kind of a bargain
with Governor Stearns about the railroads.
When he began to talk railroad to Governor
Drew, the latter required some kind of evi
dence cf the authority claimed by Sherwin.
We have always understood iliat Mr. bherwin
was unable to satisfy Governor Drew on this
subject: at any rate, he disappeared from the
scene. It is significant that be D’rnsuo again
on the eve of ar other election as full of schemes
and promises as before.*'

Hasum, Ga., August £8.—Editor Morning
Neics: After an elapse of a space of time, the
News is again in demaud. We that are re
moved from mail privileges find it a difficult
matter to obtain; with any degree of regulari
ty, mail matter from the various postal de
positories, and the seeming desire of the
obliging postmaster to “forward the mail,”
only deprives the owner thereof a period of
weeks longer than days, as it is necessary that
‘This neighbor over there and that neighbor
over yonder,” shall digest in their intellectual
stomachs all the presented and packaged in
formation in form of periodicals, news steets,
etc., before the subscriber is allowed to scan
that which is uaid for, and therefore belonging
to he, she or they. It is a matter of much deli
cacy to approach these obliging (D unsalaried
carriers of postal sub-tance. for fear of “raising
the wind,” because they have rot read the last
chapter of that “ party peece." It is ofteu
surmised that a paper subscriber is decidedly
stingy if be happens to call for the newspaper
ere it is masticated by the literati of borrowed
literature.
The agricultural prospect of our regioa, verg
ing upon the Altamaha river swamp.is compar
atively good, and it is remarked that the soil is
very productive iu this portion of the country,
though we observe a neglect in this branch to
the prefe-euce of square. s«-ab and block tim-
be*\ Farms are of no magnitude, and but very
little cotton is raised. Corn, sugar cane, sweet
potatoes and peas are the principal plants,
and they in alarmingly small quantities.
As we rarely ever have sufficient of either to
lust from one crop to the other, R is to be hoped
that some intluential means may be proclaim
ed whereby we river people may be taught
true agricultural economy to the annihilation
of our arch enemy—square and scab. We are
to-day buying corn and meat—crib and smoke
house— thus contribut ; tur to the sunset treasu
ry in the Old Wor d. Tli s is deplorable, but
no les3 the fa-'t. One G as guiity as the other,
all are pnrticevs crirninis in pauperizing as
excellent a i agricultural region as ever a
Southern sun sh«u e upon. We need a thrifty
farming emigration to teach us—sons of the
soil—bow to bring ease, competence and inde
pendence out of the earth, instead of wasting
our energy upon the long-leafed product, that
could be utilized in enhancing our now insig
nificant priced lands.
That thing that seems to agitate the usual
equanimity of the ouiet yeoman in these parts
is the divi-ion in political aspirations, there be
ing two candidates iu the fie d for Representa
tive honors: one the regular nominee before the
nominating convention, the other an independ
ent. The former. Rev. A. Clark, at present the
efficient Common School Commissioner for the
county of Wayne; the latter, Col. S. R. Harris,
an attorney-at-law of so ne distinction. Both
of these gentlemen are well represented by
their respective friends, who are sanguine of
success in carrying their choice to the coveted
seat at the capital. We, however, of North
Wayne, have nut little to say in this fight, us
neither one of the candidates have election
eered iu this quarter, each perhaps relying
upon success and expect friends to do battle in
their cause.
The seasons have been somewhat irregular,
rains decidedly impartial. For teo consecu
tive days there was an apprehension of a
d*-luge in our midst, whilst sections removed
eight or ten miles were suffering from extreme
drought. Small and insignificant streams as
sumed proportions of mighty rivers, endanger
ing adjacent property and enlarging the main
river, while ahove the cutter was muttering in
consequence or no water. Crops have suffered,
consequently, in these rainless di-tricts, and
lamentations are rife in both. In the one too
wet to harvest fodder, etc.; in the other too
dry to make anything to harvest. Fruit is an
entire failure the past season, and more evi
dence of destructive borers, worms, etr,
among apple and peach fruit th^n ever before
known. Many who have had abundant yields
of both apples and peaches are disheartened
at the appearance of these destructive insects,
remedies usually applied being of no avail.
The issue in our county, “wet and dry.'* has
effectually wiped out the sale of ardent spirits,
and we remark a wholesome t ffect upon our
section. Places of public resort are not so
boisterous, and people are becoming more in
terested in real benefits, leaving ihe more
superficial to die the deaih assigned it. Our
community claims quiet, order and harmony,
two eliurehts of different denominations, well
membored, and an excellent school of growing
popularity. Wc have been fortunate in secur
ing the services of au excellent teacher, and
whose reputation is well known as au educator

his own name should be rescued
from the damning disgrace which

more important matter that his race

Au Appeal from the Dcciaion of the
CommlM*ioner of Patent*.
Washington, August 30.—An appeal has
been filed ffi the District Supreme Court by
ex Senator Thomas L. Cliugman, of Ashe
ville, N. C., against the decision of the Com
missioner oT Patents refusing him a patent
foi an improvement in electric lights. The
device sought to be patented is a sphere of
zirconia combined with aluminum, magne
sia, lime or silica and glazed with pure zir
conia. This is sustained by two platinous
wires and gives a light by its resistance to
the electric fluid and consequent incandes
cence, it being infusible and incombustible.
The reasons of the examiners at the
Patent Office for refusing the patent were
that the claim conflicts with the patent is
sued to T. A. Edison on September 10, 1879,
for a light from iccandescent zirconia, and
another to one Jenkins on March 4,1S7U, for
platinous supports, etc. The case has been
placed on the calendar for the September
term of the court.

Week.
By Telegraph to the Mom mg News.
New York, August 30.—The stock mar
ket opened weak, and in the early dealings
declined X to 1 }4 P* 1 * cent , the latter in
Delaware and Hudson. During the after
noon a firmer feeling prevailed, and under
a good business an advance ranging from
to 3% per cent, was recorded, Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy, Coal and Granger
shares. Western Union, Michigan Central,
Erie, Hannibal and St. Joe and Lake Shore
being most prominent in the upward move
ment. Late in the afternoon there was a
fractional reaction, which was, however,
recovered in the final sales, and the market
closed strong at cr near the highest figures
of the day. The transactions aggregated
212,000 shares.
London, August 30.—The Mark J^ane Fix-
press, in its review of the British grain
trade during the past week, says: “Three
weeks of fine weather has proved of the
utmost benefit to all grain crops, and greatly
forwarded harvest operations. The absence
of bright sunshine, however, has made
this work iatner slow hi all later districts,
whilst in southern and southeastern districts
the bulk of it has been completed. Com
plaints continue of mildew in wheat. Some
early threshings are not very satisfactory.
A quantity of new English wheat has al
ready been marketed iu London aud iu the
country, and samples show a much better
quality than last season. Prices ranged
from 44«. to 48s. for white and 43a. to 45s.
for red. The demand for foreign, although
slightly Improved by lighter shipments ca
bled from America, has been mostly inac
tive, and Mondays decline has not been re
covered. It would be unwise to predict that
prices have reached the lowest pciut,
but the tendency at the .close of the week
was rather to assert a downward movement.
Barley had slow sale3. Oats were fairly ac
tive. Maize was occasionally a third
higher. The sales of English wheat for the
week were 2,929 quarters at 44;s. Id., against
17,759 quarters at 4Sj. Id. for the corres
ponding period last year. The Imports into
the kingdom for the week ending August
21st were: Wheat, 1,797,00(3 cwt.; flour,

little news from the wreck of the Marine
City. The steamer has floated ashore, but
is burned to the water’s edge. The latest

thirty are lost. Three bodies have been re

The Dtinmow Flitch of Baeou.
New York Sun.
A curious custom is still extant in ihe
little village of Dunmow. Essex. Its
origin is unknown, but ns the traditions
have been handed down from generation
to generation, no doubt the details of the
principal ceremony have been faithfully
preserved. It consists in the presenta
tion of a flitch of bacon to the married
couple who can prove that no shadow of
a quarrel has marred their happiness for
a year and a day previous to the cere
rnony. The happy couple are regularly
tried by a judge chosen for the occasion
and a jury of maidens and bachelors se
lected from the most respectable families
in the county, who cross question the
applicants for the bacon. Every means
is taken for ascertaining whether they
have by thought, word or deed done
anything calculated to produce ^matri
monial discord during the prescriljed pe
riod. In the olden times, no doubt, the
ceremony was an interesting aod use
ful one, and calculated to pro
mote happiness in the homes of the
inhabitants of Dunmow; but lately the
affair has degenerated into a circus-like
performance, something after the man
ner of the Lord Mayor s show. This
year the Alexandra Palace Company had
charge of the proceedings, and intro
duced processions of knights in armor,
dragons on wheels, masqueraders, hand
bell ringers, jumping in sacks, a piebald
woman from America, tigers and mon
keys, and other accessories of a hippo
drome. It is pleasing to learn that the
heavens looked with disfavor on this
desecration of the time honored festival,
and spoiled the whole performance by
getting up a tremendous thunder storm,
which"caused a number of the supersti
tious and half drunken spectators to fall
on their knees and attempt to pray.
Their devotions were, however, inter
rupted by the more hardened sinners,
who ridiculed their efforts to propitiate
the elements. The result was a free tight,
smashed hats, black ej'es and bleeding
noses. The crowd then dispersed with
all convenient speed.

Awful Death on a Railroad
Bridge.—A man commonly known as
■Billy” Cooper, of the town of Van
Etten, was walking on the railroad track
yesterday, at a point not far distant from
his home. In crossing the railroad
bridge he made a misstep, and slipping,
fell between the ties in such a manner
that he was fastened too firmly to extri
cate himself. Only his head remained
above the ties, but his position was so
cramped that he was unable to get that
out of the way of danger. There, sus-
>ended in that awful manner, with the
>ody dangling below the bridge, he
heard a train thundering along in the
distance, approaching every moment
nearer and nearer. No one will ever
know the struggles foi life which the
poor fellow made, but they were futile,
and with arms pinioned to his side, he
was unable to signal the engineer. The
train came sweeping on upon its helpless
victim until within a Tew feet of the
spot, when the engineer saw the man’s
head endeavored to stop his heavy train.
But too late; the moving mass passed
over, cutting the head from the shoulders
as-clean as it could have been done by
the guillotine itself. Cooper was sixty
years of age.—Ithaca (N. Y.) Journal,
August 19m.
An inventive genius filled a small tar-
letan sack with a spoonful of cayenne
:pper and tacked it over a rat hole,
hen the rat bounced out his eyes were
peppered by the sifting from the shaken
sack. He squealed like a pig and
escaped. The whole tribe has since mi
grated.

business.
LOCAL MATTERS.
The Atlanta Rolling Mill has had a stonrvl
history during the past the years, owing to]
tinancial embarrassments and changes in pro
prietorship. captain Grant Wilkins, the la<t
General Manager, seems to have met "the com
nion late cf all" predecessors, arid the furnaet-;.
arc cold and silent, and the strike continues to
holdout, both side-; claiming to be right, and
neither willing to yield. |
There is an increase in the burglary cj idcml
ic, and in some parts of the city three or four]
houses or stores are entered in a single night
On Decatur street, which the negroes have al
most colonized, their depredat'ous are numer
ousand defiant. Atlanta will be obliged to in
crease her police force and enact a stringent
vagrant law. In no other way can tin- inercare
In crime be stopped and the city freed from
the presence of huudreds of vagabonds and
idlers who ate e'er ready to create disorder]
when in liquor. An immediate reform is dej
man led.
One reason Atlanta did not show a highei
figure in the census reports i* owing to tliel
fact that all the people who move here do not
remain. Judge E. E. Brown, of Macon, is an
example. He caine here a short time ago and
rented a house 011 Peachtree street. Last w« .1;
he removed his family back to Macon, where
he is preparing to open the old National Hotel.
Still Atlanta never lacks for incomers in plac.l
of outgoers, and in no city does so much real
restate change hands daily. Auction sales ofl
vacant lots and improved protn*rty are coni
stantly taking place, and more than fifty men
are actively engaged in the real estate business
in Atlanta, either as principals or assistants.
People of moderate means ar*- purchasing lots
and building cheap house*, paying for tha
same in installments.
MORNING NEWS PUBLICATIONS.
There i* a marked increase in thesileof
Morning News pub icati..m> in this city, espe
eially of the Morning News Library. A
prominent newsdealer complains that he can
not get “Somb-e Monde" and “Muffltt" a.-, fast
as he can sell them, and wants you to hurry up
number three, as the reading public are!,
anxiously waiting for i s appearance. Th**
Markham House news stand cells more Morn
ing News than any other stand in the city.1
which shows that ti.is popular hotel is doing a
big business under Mayor Huff's energetic
management. With a fast mail from Savannah
the Morning News could have a very large
circulation and sale iu Atlanta. Even now it
can be found on file at all prominent business
places, and is more generally conMilted than
any daily on file for the public benefit.
THE CLEMENT ATTACHMENT.
Tlie only Clement Attachment in operation!
in Georgia was purchased after the proprietor
had a long conversation with your correspond
ent in regard t*> its character and value. And
yet I have been charged w ith being opj>osed to
its introduction, and an enemy of the inven
tion. I did oppose the sensational manner in
which certain parties tried to put. money in
Iheir own p* •ekets by indiscriminate puffing rf
the Attachment, and declaring that it should
be on every plantation. So far only one has
been put in operation in this State - at Senoia
No d*-ubt others will be established, but never
will the time come when they will beestab-l
li-lied in one third ot the counties in Georgia.
It is a good intention in its place, when pro J
perly managed, and the State Agricultural So
ciely lias recently fully endorsed my positions
iu regard to its merits and proper use.
THAT DRINKING FOUNTAIN.
I see that a large and handsome drinking
fountain is to be put up in Savannah. Let m*-
again warn your committee against putting it
w here teams stopping to drink will obstruct
the street or square, or it will prove, as in this
city, a great nuisance, l’roperly located, it
can accomplish much good and become a popu
lar ornament. AH tlie fancy top work of our
Atlanta foiintaiu has been knocked to pieces,
and only the t>a«in. badly battered, now re
mains. It will be well to early protect your
fountain from such a sad fate A low. plain
basin Is the most durable, practicable and eon
! veoient. as has been proved in the use of Ihe
fountain in Rome, but th** Hon. John I*. King
having gc* erously given your city an elaborate
fountain. I refer to the matter simply to have
your people know that it cannot be kept in order
and preserved without watchful care and
ample protection.
ORDER no. 10.
Just at the present time the Railroad Com
mission is sick- that is. all but the head. Gov
ernor Smith, tlie President, is at the Markham
House, but in the absence of Commissioners
Wallace and Harnett—one sick in Tennessee
and the other in South Carolina-he cannot
take action upon Order No. 10. the one that
has ere ated such opposition on the line of ih~
Southwestern Railroad. The hearing will pro
bably be posti>oned for the present.
Vice President W. G. Raoul came here to re
present the Central Railroad, but lie declined
to go into a legal argument against a half
dozen lawyers from towns represented. He
had plac ed facts 1m*fore the Commission, and
the Commissioners had i«sued Order No. 10
If a legal discussion was to follow this action
he would have his road represented by law
vers who could discuss such point* with the
lawyers sent hereby towns opposiog the act ion
of the Commissioners. The course pursued
by Captain Raoul was firm, manly and con
aistent, and U highly approved. Tlie result of
the legal discussion will be waited for with
considerable interest.
THE STATE CANVASS.
Since the joint discussions opened U-tw*-en
Governor Colqui't and ex Fenator Norwood,
the campaign has rapidly developed. The
Colquitt headquarters are alive with clerks,
mailing documents and answering letters,
while the committees are arranging for public
speakers and joint discussions.
Colonel Willis A. Hawkins, Major R. J.
Moses and Hon. John D. Stewart have started
the Colquitt speaking boom with great success
and enthusiasm, and will be followed by other
and no less able and eloquent stump orators.
No part of the State will be overlooked in due
time, and either pajs-rs. documents or speakers
will be sent to enlighten the people upon all
the iFSue of the contest.
The Norwood men are very act've in the
Urge cities and claim a majority of the voters
on their side, but the (Jo-quilt men say the
rural districts are almost solid for the re-elec
tion of the present incumbent. As to the ne
gr*> vote, it is conceded that at least two-third*,
if not more, will go to Colquitt. The inde
pendents are also divided, and it i* said that
Colquitt can depend iq»on nearly one-half of
that vote. A prominent and zealous Norw<*od
man told me to-day that it would be impossible
to defeat Colquitt, but they would make Ihe
race mighty lively for him. One thing is evi
dent, the Colquitt committee is doing an im
mense amount of quiet W'.rk all over tne St ate,
sod profess to know that it is sure to be effec
tive at the polls in October next.
MILITARY IN THE LEGISLATURE.
Th** action of the volunteer officers of Sawan
nah is in the right direction. All efforts with
previous legislatures have been signal failures.
There is but one hope of relief for the volun
teers of Georgia, aud that is in tbe selection of
Representatives/*f<dyed to give a cordial and
earnest support to measure* calculated to im
prove and provide for the military organiza
tions of the State.
The last legislature had a dozen volunteer
officers in it* membership. Captain Lester
wus President of the Senate, aud Captains
Curnming, Caban is* and Grantland, and Lieu
tenant Grimt s. were Senators. < aptain Bacon
was Speaker of the House, ar.d Captains PcI-
hill, Crawford, Adams, Walton and Thomas
were Representatives. Yet. under their able
advocacy, no measures of real benefit to ’.b«-
volunteers could be passed. This fact shows
that the people must send Representative*
under instructions to foster and provide for the
military of Georgia.
The late Constitutional Convention wisely
provided that the Legislature should have
power to create and support a proper military
force. Article X., in section 1. has these para
graphs, which contain full authority to organ
ize and care for such a force: (»> "A well regu
lated mi’itia being essential to the peace and
security of the State, the General Assembly
shall have authority to provide by law how the
mlhtia of this State shall be organized, offi
cered. trained, armed and equipped : and of
whom it shall consist. (2) Tlie General Assem
bly shall have power, to authorize tbe forma
tion of volunteer companies, and to provide
for their organization into battalions, regi
ments. brigades, divisions and corps, with such
restrictions as may be prescribed by law, and
shall have authority to arm ami equip the
same. (3) The officers and men of the militia
and volunteer forces shall not be entitled to
receive any pay, rations, or emoluments when
not in active service by authority of the State."
Under the al»ove provisions or the constitu
tion all that our volunteers desire can be se
cured by wise and patrio ic legislation. Hav
ing had six years' experience as a reporter in
the Georgia Legislature, and having given
special attention to this subject, I thick I can
suggest the only ture way of securing liberal
appropriations and prop -r encouragement for
our military organ zationa. There wdl be no
trouble in sending Representatives from
Chatham, Richmond, Burke, Bibb. Muscogee,
Fulton, and Floyd counties, who will act in a
generous manner for the support of the volun
teers. They, however, are a very small
minority, and have had, and I fear still may JESSE HANEY & CO., 118 Ni
