Tin Thanksgiving turkey has always
been considered an unconquerable bear in
b New York stock market, and a de

th day after Thanksgiving. Contrary to
a!! precedent the market on Friday last

JSeariy all favi.rlte securities showed a
si: stanlial advance, and the sales were
unusually large. The reason given for
thi- is that the capitalists arc burdened
with money, and. as the government
will i*ay out alsHit t-V<.ooo,oou the
first week in January, it is likely that the
ttamuMitor first class securities for iu
v.-vtment will be unusually large. The
Lulls now evidently are having things
their own way, but the ways of the stock
►;ss ulatora are alwavs dark, and devious
and the great money syndicates can toss
th. market up or down as easily as one
*-AB handle a toy balloon. Sow is a good
tiwe *r all lamba to keep well away from
the wolves of Wall street, and this cau
tka may be equally applied to every day
in the year.
The Government and the Telegraph.
Government control of the telegraph is
a matter that has elicited a great deal of
discussion. Within the last six months
attention has been drawn to it by articles
in the newspapers and magazines. The
Postmaster General, in his annual re
port, presents •it in its various
phases, and reaches the conclusion
that the evils of the present system of tele
graphic communication are not so griev
ous as to call for Congressional interven
tion. There are three substitute-, for the
present system suggested. They are stated
by tne Postmaster General to be as fol
lows :
1-t. The acquisition and operation of
the existing lines t>v the government.
.1. Th-construction by the government
of lines which it will operate in compe
tition with existing companies, .‘td. The
creation of a compiny by which lines
of telegraph are to he supplied to
the capital of each State, and otner
place-having a given number of inhab
itants. or where stations are now main
tained. or the business of the country may
hereafter require them. The company, in
consideration of the special powers con
ferred by Congress, is. at certain reduced
rates to be prepaid by stamps, _to
transmit messages at a compensation
to be paid by the United Mates
not to exceed to per centum upon its au
thorized capital stock over and above op
erating exi>enses. The government is
obliged to furnish at each station the re
-lui-ite accommodations for the officers
etnplovpd in the transaction of business,
and to’assume the duty of receiving mes
sages ami delivering by mail or otherwise
such as are transmitted.
The Postmaster General says that he has
nodoubt of the constitutional power of Con
gress to avail itself of all possible meth
ods f->r transmitting messages and intelli
gence, and to adopt either of the first two
suggestions above mentioned. He says,
however, that either plan would be at
tended with great expense, and would
increase the patronage of the government
enormously. It is a grave question
whether the advantages that would
accrue from government control of the
telegraph would compensate for the evils
that would probably flow from an
increase of government patronage.
The Postmaster General well says
that an increase of patyonage
"is one of the dangers which threaten the
purity and duration of our institutions.”
There is another thing to be considered.
It is this; The telegraph would, of
course, be under the control of the
party in jiovver, and in times of
great political excitement the tempta
tion to use it for partisan purposes would
be very great. It is also argued with
great force that there is no more reason
why the government should control the
telegraph fbr the transmission of mes
sages. than i(■should control the railways
because they carry the mails. If it
is true that the people would
get cheaper service from a government
telegraph, it is also true that they would
get cheaper rates from government rail
ways. It is not probable that Congress
will take any action looking to govern
ment control of tl\p telegraph yet awhile.
A Few More Centennials.
I>uring the past few years the United
-rates has been celebrating centennial
anniversaries by the score, and many
people nave laid the flattering unction to
their souls that the Evacuation celebra
tion in New York on Monday would put
an end to that manner of making our pa
triotism ostentatious for fifty or a hun
dred years to come. That is not true,
however, for there are at least two great
events that mark epochs in the history of
the nation, the centenaries of which will
not be allowed to pass unnoticed. They
are the adoption of the Federal Constitu
tion and the inauguration of Washington
as the first President of the United States.
A question arises as to what will lie the
proper dates for these celebrations. Shall
the first Ik* fixed trout the date the Na
tional Convention finished its work of
framing the Constitution and signed the
instrument, which was September IT,
17-7. or shall the date of Its adoption by
the ninth State, when it really became
fixed as the fundamental law of the land,
be regarded as “Constitution day?” The
ninth State which accepted the Constitu
tion was New Hampshire, which ratified
it on the 21st of June, 17-S. Undoubtedly
the latter date is the one that should he
considered in fixing the date of the cen
tennial.
A more difficult question arises as to
what shall be considered President’s
day. Gen. Washington was elected
and the Senators and Hopresenta
iivo in Congress chosen in the fall of
17—. Tin- new government should have
begun under the term* of the Constitution
on March 4, 17-!. It did not. however,
strictly speaking, on account of a failure
of a quorum of the two Houses of Con
gress to convene. On the Ist of April a
hare quorum was present, and the inau
guration of the President took place April
:’>o, nearly two months after the date fixed
by the Constitution. As the 4th of March
is the constitutional inauguration day,
and has been so ever since Washington’s
tir-t installment into the Presidency, we
think March 4. I— P, should be the day se
lected for the Centennial.
The Disston Purchase.
Gov. Bloxham, ot Florida, while he has
a host of warm friends and admirers, has
some hitt-r enemies. Lately he and his
administration have been attacked lor
selling the lands known as the Disston
purchase. It is claimed that these lands
were sold for too low a price, and that
Henry S. Sandford had offered 40 cents an
acre for them. It is probable that every
body in Florida thought that the State re
ceived all the lands were worth at the
time the sale was made. Whatever dis
satisfaction there is now probably arises
from the fact that Disston has done so
well with them. With regard to the Sand
ford offer the editor of the Tavares Herald ,
who was the attorney of Mr.
Sandtord in the transaction which Mr.
Sandford had with the State about the
lands, says there never was a time when
Mr. Sandford would have given 40 cents
an acre. Soon after Gov. Bloxham was
inaugurated Mr. Sandford offered 30 cents
an acre for 200,000 acres in bodies of 640
and 320 acres, with the privilege of pur
chasing 7.'0,000 acres more. The Board
of Trustees refused the offer.
Later, Mr. Sandford secured a contract
for 1,000,000 acres for $400,000 in selected
bodies of not less than 640 acres, at 50
cents tor the first 250,000 acres, 40 cents
for the next 500,000 acres, and 30 cents for
250,00)). Mr. Sandford, according to the
editor of thJeTavares Herald , did not keep
his part of this contract and lost the land
purjmsely. The Disston purchase of
4,000,000 acres for $1,00)1,000, in bodies of
10,000 acres was, in the opinion of many,
far better for the State than the broken
Sandford contract. Whatever else may
lie said derogatory to
of Gov. Bloxham it can hardly be success
fully attacked for selling the Disston
lands.
All is not perfectly calm and peaceful
in the Republican National Committee.
Logan and IKirsey have been out with
each other for some time. Last January,
when Dorsey resigned tne Secretaryship
on account of his alleged bad eye, Logan,
to conciliate matters, offered a resolution
of thanks for the skillful manner in which
Dorsey had placed the soap on the Demo
cratic track. He doubtless thought Dor
sov might he needed some day to do his
dirty work. The latter, however, saw it
was too thin and called Logan "an ambi
tious hypocrite.” Logan then claimed to
have offered the resolution only to insult
the great star router. It is thought the
next meeting of the committee will be a
warm one, as Dorsey threatens to openly
denounce his enemy. Such unity and
brotherly love in the grand old party is as
retreshing as the dews of Hermon.
It is gratifying to note that Postmaster
General Gresham recommends in his
annual report the increase of the limit on
newspajiers, sent by others than publish
ers, to three ounces. The present postage
on newspapers is one cent for single
papers not exceeding two ounces, and as
many large papers are a small fraction
over that weight, much vexation Is caused
by a misunderstanding of the laws.
Papers not fully prepaid are not for
warded. The Morning News has
earnestly advocated this change in the
postal regulations, and it is to be hoped
the recommendation of the Postmaster
General will be favorably received by
Congress.
The Small Farm.
Distribution of the land among the
largest numlier of people was at a very
eariv period recognized in this country as
the road to national peace and prosperity.
and the bulwark against monopoly.against
aristocracy, anarchy and tyranny. In the
settlement of Georgia, notwithstanding
the boundless extent of territory stretch
ing out before the handful of colonists,
from the Atlantic to the Mississippi river,
the quantity of land that could be pur
chased bv one individual was limited to a
few hundred acres. Land speculation
was to be nipped in the bud, or
rather, to be entirely forestalled,
and it seems to have been
already understood that the progress, fu
ture wealth and stability of the colony
would depend upon the distribution of the
land. In the hands of a fe it would lie
held in large bodies for speculation, out
of the reach of the poor, while the colon\
dwindled or progressed feebly, present
ing a strong temptation to its powerful
enemies. But in the hands of the many,
there would be encouragement to acquiis
tion of wealth for all classes, rapid accu
mulation of physical power to defense,
and growth of patriotism, pi file and intel
ligence for national elevation.
The small farm was what the colonists
designed to make the ground work, the
basis, of their new empire, and they
would have encountered no obstacle but
for the introduction of slaves and cotton.
These changed the w hole order of Southern
agriculture, and opened plantations in
stead of farms. The results of the war.
however, restored the old order, or, at
least, made room for it. and small farms
are once more regarded as the hope ot
the South. A recent writer says: “It
is to the small farmers that the South
must look for the regeneration, and to lift
the cotton States out of the mire into
which the ‘all cotton’ theory has placed
them.” But the farms must bo owned by
the farmers—those who rent lands and
move about from year to year will never
succeed on any kind ot a farm. A\ itb
them nothing can he permanent; their
work is for temporary use only, and, of
course, precludes all solid improvements
on the farm.
To be such, a farm, small or great, is a
domain of variety and industry, compre
hending all that soil and climate will
produce, and to these belong stock, poul
try and bees, especially the former, as in
dispensable to its wealth and improve
ment, and these cannot be properly
cared for by annual movers. But
change the tenant into proprietor
and the work becomes easy—the want of
interest is no longer felt—grasses will he
sown and pasturage provided for the
stock; orchards and vineyards will spring
up to increase the wealth and luxury of
the farm, and its general surroundings
w ill assume a cast of permanent growth
and prosperity.

Any statesman who can coin such a
phrase as “towering issue ot administra

what damaged cry of “turn the rascals
out” has unlimited Presidential possi
bilities in him. It may not be so popular
with the “hoys” as Mr'. Thurman’s homely
formula of taking them in out of the cold
and “warming their toes,” but it is more
“statesman like,” as the admirers of Mr.
Blaine would say.
Want Democratic Tliunder.
Button A (Irertizer ( Rep.) .
Upon the two of the most important
questions that are likely to come before
Congress—tax reduction and civil service
reform—the President has an opportunity
to take the initiative for his party in a
manner that will prevent the Democrats
from gaining any advantage during the
session. The necessity for tax reduction
is as plain and imperative as it was a year
ago. Why should the party which has the
President and the Senate leave to a fortui
tous Democratic majority in the House
the suggestion and inauguration of a
measure for the relief of the people from
unnecessary burdens.

The proposed discussion on the possi
bility of establishing a universal time by
selecting a meridian common to all na
tions has given rise tc many suggestions
more or less valuable. One of these, pub
lished in the “ Journal of the Society of
Arts,” is, that the simplest way of ex
pressing this universal time would be by
using Roman figures; while the civil time
would he expressed bv Arabic numerals,
followed by a large II for the morning
hours, and a small one for those of the
evening. In fact, the hour would be ex
pressed in a manner similar to that iu use
among the Russians for designating the
old and new styles in dates. In the same
manners as they say 16 28 June, the rail

I IMMENSE FAME!
There have been of late in New York several large failures, and our buyer, who is always on
the spot, secured some Immense bargains in
Cloaks, Dolmans, Walking Jackets,
ULSTERS, NEWMARKETS and CIRCULARS.
These goods we are now opening. They comprise the finest selection of nice goods ever
brought to this city, and at prices one-third less than the same can be
liought regularly at wholesale of the manufacturers.
Children's Fine Cloaks and Havelocks!
There never has been displayed a more choice and handsome selection of such garments in
Savannah, nor even in the finest New York retail houses. We would have been afraid to buv
them at regular prices, hut we have secured these goods also by a chance offering. These
garments will not only be found as described, but also at prices far below their value.
Cashmeres and Fancy Dress Goods.
We especially direct attention to our exceptionally full assortment of Cashmeres and Fancy
Dress Goods. We are overstocked and are making sacrifices to unload. Our Cashmeres wifi
be found tremendously cheap for the qualities they represent.
BLANKETS ! HLANK IETS !
At the recent auction sales, when manufacturers forced the 6ale of these goods, we pur
chased tens of thousands of pairs, which has enabled us for several months past to sell them at
our
UNHEARD OF PRICES!
AVe sell large 10-4 WHITE BLANKETS, goods perfectly fresh, a pair at |l 25, which were
never sold for less than $3 00 before. We have them also at $1 50 and $1 75 a pair, worth $3 50
and $4 00. In fact we have every grade up to the very finest in the market, which we offer at
sl3 50, their usual price being $25 00. Our $3 00 BLANKETS we make a specialty of. They
are positively worth $8 00 and nothing less. In GREY BLANKETS we have all grades, be
ginning with 65c. a pair, going upwards to 75c., $1 00, $1 50 to $4 50.
Flannels, Cloakings and Cassimeres.
We carry a full line in these goods at our popular low prices. We will wimply mention one
special article, an ALL WOOL RED TWI LI, FLANNEL, very heavy, at 25c. a yard, which
cannot he duplicated for less than 35c. and 40c. We keep also "a full line of heavy SHAKER
FLANNELS in White and Red, and all the leading makes of FINE FLANNELS. We keep
the very best quality of WHITE TWILL FLANNELS and a large assortment of EMBROID
ERED FLANNELS, much below the usual selling price.
EMBROIDERED TABLE and PIANO COVERS will be found of exquisite designs and
superior quality, at very reasonable prices.
