He is to be allowed to supplement the vol unteer army to the tune of about 15,000, the President having about decided to call for 10,000 more colored volunteers. And the beauty of the scheme is, the negroes of Georgia and Tennessee are to l>e given preference. In other words, practically all of the 15,000 negro volun teers’ are to be raised in these two states. At the least calculation, therefore, this will make Georgia’s quota of colored troops about live or six thousand. * By the same rule Bibb county will be allowed to furnish from four to six hun dred of these troops at once, and maybe as many more later on. Think of the glory of it—five or six hundred Bibb coun ty negroes in Cuba, fighting, bleeding, dying with yellow fever and smallpox ail for free Cuba. Already the colored people of Bibb are eager for the fray. Already they have called a mass meeting for Monday night, at which time they will pass resolutions and volunteer for service in Cuba. This will greatly facilitate matters, inasmuch as the enlisting officers will only have to be present or have representatives present at the meeting who will take the names of those present, so that when the final call is issued they may be ordered out, equipped, drilled and sent to the front at once. So far hr we have seen the colored peo ple of*oo other city have been so thought ful and accommodating. The consequence will >be Bibb will bo allowed to furnish most of the colored troops. While those in other cities are holding back the color ed people of Macon will be enlisted and sent to the front. Owing to their commendable action in calling a meeting and offering their ser vices so early in the game, it is even prob able that the government will allow Bibb county to furnish as many as 1,000 colored 'troops to begin with. And thus old Bibb Would lead the procession. Nowhere else in Georgia are the colored people so eager for war. The average Bibb county negro is impatient at the govern ment’s tardiness in calling him out. lienee they have decided to hold a monster meet ing ami formally call the government’s at tention to the fact that they are ready and waiting. That this will have the de sired effect, goes without saying. In all probability enlisting officers will be sent her© at once; they may even be in attend ance on Monday night’s meeting. In either event, the government will not keep Bibb county s colored people waiting any long er. Next week may see the streets of Macon lined with colored troops. Then for t’uba. On to Havana. Victory or death. And be it said to their credit, the colored people of Bibb county do not fear war. Many of them have already seen service, when they went as servants to their young masters thirty-odd years ago. While these may now be too old to go again, there is a younger generation ready to go in their stead. And these are prepared for what awaits them. For them Spanish bullets have no terrors. Nor are they afraid of yellow fever and smallpox. They will go to Cuba and wrestle with these diseases, and if they recover will go forth to face Spanish bullets. They are ready to die for their half-brothers in Cuba. Says the Forsyth Chronicle: “Major Owen T. Kenan, of Macon, was day before yesterday appointed senior major of the Georgia volunteer troops by Governor At kinson. Major Kenan is one of the best known and most popular military men in the state, and his appointment is a just recognition of a faithful and efficient ser vice in the state militia and a deserved compliment to his competency as a mili tary man generally.” . ’ Catholice and the Flag. The patriotism shown by Catholic citi zens of the United States since the war "with Spain 'began has completely silenced t at blatiherskite, dark-lantern organiza tion. the A. p. iA. The sensible people of this country, how ever, require no further proof of the loyalty of American Catholics, for they had not forgotten their glorious services from the foundation of the republic to date. But. for the benefit of those whose minds are still clouded by an idiotic prejudice it is well enough to call attention to the following patriotic words of a Catholic priest spoken in Chicago the other day as he was about to .bless a flag of the United Etates which may shortly bee seen at the front: “We arc about to raise the great est emblem of justice and civilization on earth, next to the cross.’' Noting this in cident the Savannah News says: “Such and the ready response of Catholic young men to the call for volun teers. should forever silence the insinua tions of those persons who have been carp ing about the friendliness of the Pope dor Spain and his influence upon the people of his church in America being exercised in bpain. Governor Atkinson’s policy with refer ence .to rhe Georgia troops is bearing fruit as the following from the Albany Herald shows: “At the meeting of the two com panies on Monday night and in .the course , private conversation since, the men have stated emphatically that they will never join the volunteer troops unless .the state will receive them as they are at present organized, and with their present com manding officers. As there seems to be no disposition on the part of the state au thorities to allow any such proceeding, it is a foregone conclusion that verv few men will volunteer—in fact, it is asserted that <the number may be counted on the fingers pf one hand.” j x The Carlist Claim. In view of an attempt being ma le by the Carlists to seize the throne of Spain in the event of"a serious disaster to Spanish arm? under the Queen'Regent, the following brief account of the Carliirt family and its claims, which is taken from the New Or leans States, is of interest: The name was given to the supporters of the pretender Hon Maria Isidor Carlos d? Bourbon, the second son of Charles IV. He was born in 1788 and educated chiefly by priests. After the expulsion <rf the French from Spain, and the reascension of his brother, Ferdiand VII., who had had no children from three marriages, Don Carlos .naturally began to cherish the hope of succeeding to the thron-. A fourth time, however, the indefatigable Ferdinand married, and the result was a daughter, the Infanta Marie Isabella (queen until her disposition in 1868,) who twas born in 1830. As the Sallic law, excluding females from succession to the throne, <had been abroga ■ted by Ferdinand a few months after his fourth marriage at the instigation of Queen Christiana, the birth of this daugh ter completely destroyed all rational hopes of the ( arlists. Don Carlos, continuing his agitation, however, was banished in 1.833, and commanded to reside in Italy. Before he embarked Ferdinand died and the child Isabella' was at once proclaimed queen, with her mother as regent. Don Carlos then made another attempt on the throne, supported Iby the absolutists and especial ly hy the inhabitants of the Basque pro vinces, who fought in his behalf with in domitable courage for several years. They were subdued in 1839 by Espartero and Don Carlos was compelled to escape into France. Prior to this, in 1836, his claims to the throne were unanimously rejected by the Cortes. In 1844 he abdicated his claims in favor of his eldest son, and died at Triste in 1855. Don Carlos, the son, better known as the Count de Mocitemolin, was in ISIS. This second pretender made an attempt in 1860 at Tolosa, in Valencia, to stir up an other Carlist insurrection, hut he and his brother Ferdinand were arrested and only liberated after they bad signed a renuncia tion of all their claims to the Spanish throne. He died in 1861 and the next rep resentative of the Carlist pretensions was his nephew, Don Carlos, born in 1848, whose father had previously renounced the claim of the son. On his beialf Carlist rising took place in 1869, 1810 and 1872. They were, speedily repressed, but an in surrection headed by him in person in 1873, proved much more formidable, and kept the 'Basque privinces in great confu sion till the beginning cf 1876, and t.»e last of their ancient privileges were strip ped ft cm the Basques, whose courage and unquestioned loyalty of nature were wor thy of a better cause. It will be seen from this recital that the cla ms of the Carlists are very indeed. If Sampson’s squadron 'keeps up the present lick, 'the United States 'will soon have the largest fishing craft afloat. Army Reorganization. The bill passed by congress a few days ago for the purpose of reorganizing the regular army, when its provisions are car ried into effect will increase the army’s strength to 61,000 men, notes the Birming ham News in an editorial which contains much interesting information on the sub ject. Under the new law the army is to be a three battalion organization. The result of this change is to provide a separate footing in both war and peace. During peace a regiment of infantry consists of two battalions of four companies each and two skeleton companies, but the eight companies are not filled up to the war standard. In war the skeleton companies are filled up and two companies recruited, so as to make twelve companies to the reg iment, divided into three battalions of four companies each. However, this is not all of the increase. The eight existing companies may be re cruited to their full strength, which for the infantry is thus set forth in the act, referring to enlisted men only: “One first sergeant, one quartermaster-sergeant, four sergeants, twelve corporals, two musi cians, one artificer, one wagoner and eighty-four privates; total enlisted 106.” Each troop of cavalry consists of one first sergeant, one quartermaster-sergeant, six sergeants, eight corporals, two farriers and blacksmiths, two trumpeters, one sad dler, one wagoner, seventy-eight privates; total pn,listed, 400. Each battery of heavy artillery consists of 200 men—l 62 privates, the rest ser geants, corporals, musicians, etc. « Each battery of field artillery will con sist of 173 men, of which 141 are to be privates. The President is authorized to add one second lieutenant to each battery of artillery when recruited to its full strength. The sixth section of the act provides that in time of war the pay proper of en listed men shall be 20 per cent over and above the rates of pay fixed by law, but this shall not be due to those performing extra and special duty. The war department has already issued orders for the army to be recruited to the full war strength provided for under the new law. The supreme court of the United States, through Justice McKenna, has rendered an important 'decision on the right of a state to regulate suffrage. The decision is the outcome of a case (brought by a negro named Henry Williams, in which he at tacked the constitution of (Mississippi on the ground that it violates the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constition of the United States. Justice Jackson, in his decision, places a strict construction on the Four teenth Amendement, and holds that in or der to secure federal interference it must be shown specifically that a state statute or constitution actually violates the 'federal constitution. A circus man has offered the secretary of war a herd of twenty-five elephants for war purposes. The animals, it is claim ed, are all veterans elf wars, having been engaged in fighting in the Punjab and elsewhere. It is not probable that the gov ernment will accept the offer. But it is a good ad for the circus man, just the same. STITCH I STITCH I STITCH I The woman who bends hei back over a sew- X iug mac hine for J I many hours each f I y day needs to be . ./A strong and xfflgajß XA healthy in every way, or she is courting death. When her work comes hard, and makes her nervous, fretful and despondent, and she has “ stitches in the side,” pains in the back or abdomen, and headaches, she . aay be certain that some thing is radically wrong. A local doctor, with a limited field of ob servation and experience, will probably say that the fault is in the stomach, liver or heart. Generally he is wrong. The fault is probably in the delicate and important organs that really constitute womanhood. They are weak or diseased. If such is the case, only a doctor of known reputation and wide experience should be consulted. A letter to Dr. R. V. Pierce, for thirty years chief consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y_, will secure the free advice of prob ably the most eminent specialist in these diseases in the world. Dr. Pierce’s Favor ite Prescription has been used with success by tens of thousands of invalid women. Over 90,000 have acknowledged its merits over their signatures. It promptly cures all weakness and disease of the organs dis tinctly feminine. All medicine dealers. “ I have been a great sufferer from female dis eases.” writes Mrs. C. C. Clark, of New Rome, Floyd Co., Ga. “ I was confined to my bed three years, and not able to sit in my chair but very little. I got one of your pamphlets and read it and sent and got three bottles of Dr. Pierce’s Fa vorite Prescription. I took the medicine and re ceived so much benefit from those three bottles that I was induced to take more. I therefore sent and got nine bottles. I took them and they completely cured me." Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets cure bit tousness and constipation. One a dose, They never gripe. POWDER Absolutely Pure The Dawson News thus punctures the tire of one of Spencer R. Atkinson’s pieces of sophistry: “Judge Atkinson wants to reduce taxes, but would do it at the ex pense of the fellows who plow and labor at the trades and sell goods and struggle in the professions. In his speech in Daw son yesterday he said he favored a law which would permit the manufacturing establishments of capitalists and corpora tions to be exempted from taxation, and then gave as his remedy for high taxation the searching out and placing upon the tax books every vestige of property owned by the individual. The property of the merchant, the farmer, the mechanic and the professional man must pay tribute to the tax gatherers, acording to the unre signable candidate; but the capital of cor porations must have nothing exacted of it.” The Macon County Citizen, a Berner paper, predicts, on the strength of what it deems reliable information, that the counties of the Third congressional dis trict will vote for governor, as follows: Candler—Sumter, Lee, Macon, Houston. Dooly and Twiggs. Berner—Stewart, Webster. Schley, Taylor and Crawford. \tkinson— Wilcox and probably Pulaski. This would give Candler theirty-six votes to twenty-eight for the other two—or eight more than both of them put together-—and that in South Georgia, too! —Dalton Argus. The following from the Savannah 'Morn ing -News is respectfully referred to Gov ernor Atkinson: “Fitzhugh Lee did not ask for a major general’s commission when he offered his services to the government. He said that he Would go in any capacity that the gov ernment might deem best. This example should commend itself to those 'who think they ought to have a high office, and are not inclined to fight the Spaniards unless they get it.” The Atlanta Commercial puts forth this query: “What has become of the bright silver dollar that Douglass Glessner once had at the head of the Griffin News as a motto? Since Bob Berner 'has become a candidate 'we have missed the familiar and inspiring motto. Don’t it suit Bob?” 7Fr<?e Pilis. Send your address to H. E.

To cast a large sheet of phite glass is in modern hands a very simple affair. A ta ble is prepared, with sides made of, strips of iron, forming a shallow, level tank. Into this the molten glass, which is made from the whitest sand, glass fragments, lime, manganese soda, cobalt and other chemicals, is poured. Immediately the operator begins smoothing and leveling the mass with a great iron roller, which brings it down exactly to the level of the iron rim. It is then put through anneal ing and tempering processes, which occupy several days. Alter this it is ground to a perfectly uniform thickness, then polished until it acquires the utmost brilliancy. The cost of glass is greatly increased in proportion to its size. This is due to tho fact that a large sheet may turn out im perfect flaws and ripples, which utterly destroy its value as a strictly first class commodity. Small pieces are cut from Ute perfect places in tho large plate, and in this way the most serious loss is avoided. —New York Ledger.
