We have received the catalogue for
1890 of the Middle Georgia Agricul
tural and Military College at Mill-
•dgeville. The list of students shows
a total of 385 in attendance during
the past term, and' the prospect for
next term is flattering. Dr. W. S.
- Dudley, formerly of Cothbert, is
President, and is assisted by a lull
corps of teachers in the various de
partments.
A large nnmber of the citizens of
Bibb county have petitioned Hon. A.
O. Bacon to become a candidate for
the Legislature. Mr. Bacon lias ac
capted.
It is amusing to see honr the anti
Colquitt papers claim a monopoly ol
virtue, patriotism and intelligence of
the land. It would be alarming if it
were not so supremely ridiculous.
The notorious telegram to Mr. Fel
ton is a thorn in the flesh of the
"fragmentary minority.” In their
attempt to attach the stigma of “dis-
organizers” and “bolters" to the ma
jority, this little bid for the leader
ship of the great original disorgani
zer, Is a matter not easy for them to
explain away.
The Phonograph says that the tele
gram sent to Dr. Felton did not mean
anything—that it was only sent to
scaur the majority—that it was only
a joke. Snch amusing playfulness on
the part of the minority is refreshing.
They are not however enjoying the
joke as much as they should. It de
serves more appreciation at their
Campaign Slanders.—The heaviest
reprobatious of Garfield arc copied
from the newspapers now engaged
in advocating his election, only that
these papers bear date conlcmpora
neous with his offenses. Many of
these censures are reproduced. The
Sun presents the following:
Speaking of James A. Garfield and
the other congressmen who with him
took the Credit Mobilicr bribe, the
Buffalo Commercial, on March 1st,
1873, used language befitting a news
paper of eminence and character.

Colquitt In Terrell.
Dawson, Ga., August 23, 1880.
Eililort Albany Hews:
1 write you to say that there are
plenty of Colquitt men here in Tor-
rell county. It is true that the coun
ty expressed a prelerence fur Lester
in the recent ciectiou for Gubernato
rial delegates; but from what 1 have
seen and heard, I know a reaction
has taken place in the past week or
so, and you may put us down for a
majority against the “Salary Grab
ber.” We don’t propose lo be "bull
dozed” by “a fragmentary minority,”
as Alex Stephens called the minority
of the recent Gubernatorial Conven
tion.
Wby, gentlemen, some of the anti
Colquitt men go so far as to say that
they would rather vote for a “nigger”
than to vote for Gov. Colquitt. This
shows a bitterness of spirit, the ex
ample of which will drive all of the
good men of the country to the sup
port of the present incumbent, f
have yet to hear even a single Col
quilt man express himself with that
bitterness of spirit.
This fact cannot be denied, that
Mr. Norwood allied himself in the
Congress of the United States with
such* men as Spencer, of Alabama,
Logan, Morton, Camaron, and oth
ers in voting for “The Salary Grab
Bill.” The Democrats from Maine
to California are making good head
way against Garfield on account of
bis vote on “The Salary Grab," and
yet we are called upon as Democrats
to sustain a man for Governor who
voted for this iniquitous bill and
pocketed the snug little sum conncc-
ed with it, and who says he will do
it again if lie ever lias the opportuni
ty. “Oh, consistency, thou art a jew
el.”
In the Forty-second Congross,
known as the most corrupt Congress
ever assembled in America, Senator
Norwood arrayed himself with those
who voted for “The Salary Grab
Bill,” while Edmunds, Morrill, Chan
dler, Frelinghuysen, and others, mak
ing twenty of the best Senators, voted
against it. So one must readily per
ceive that this “immaculate” (7)
“fragmentary minority” has pnt out
a vulnerable standard-bearer. Ilow
can the good pcogle of the State swal
low the dose ? And how can the good
people of the State support the lead
er of a disorganizing faction and re
produce the bitter fruits of Radical
supremacy in the State ? Who can do
U?
Wc are opposed to the spirit of in
tolerance so often shown towards
rival candidates, nevertheless, when
“fragmentary minority” lias the
cheek to pretend to place before the
thinking peoplo of tile State a man
as perfect, who is not free from ]H>-
litical errors, and then wages a mer
ciless war upon a man whose only
fault has been “an over confidence in
mankind, prompted by the kindest of
hearts,” then in this case we must say
that “they who live in glass houses
ought not to throw stones.”
That nestor of the press, Mr. Joseph
Clisbv, in a recent editorial, says
this, “Minorities have no power to
lies! discords except by concession,
and that he lias no partiality for Gov.
Colquitt, and secs on (lie contrary
many faults in his administration,
but that these, however, arc not of
such a character as to constitute in-
sepcrablc objections to Democratic
support, or any sound reason why-
opposition to bis candidacy should
be pushed lo the point of party dis
cord and ruin.” These words arc to
Ihe eye as “apples of gold in pictures
of silver.” Success to Governor Col
quitt, and defeat to the ‘classic’ states
man. W. K. P.

And now we are informed that Mr
Flood, the California millionaire, has
purchased a cottage at Newport for
the accommodation of tlic son of ex
President Grant and his bride to be,
“over the portals of which the quar-
terings of the. Grants and floods arc
beingengraved.” This sounds very
nice, but what are the “quarterings”
of these distinguished families?
Grant was a tanner and Flood was a
barkeeper. If these mysterious em
blems have any bearing onJUcir ori
gin, the “quarterings” over the New
port door will probably lie a sheep
pelt couchaut and a corkscrew ram
pant.
Indian Strings, August, 1880.
Kilitors Albany Newt :
Wc had quite a sensation here the
other night. It was past twelve
o’clock. The llgfils were out, the
music hushed, the merry dancers
weary of ptensoro for the time, were
sleeping peacefully. All nature was
hushed save the murmuring of the
wind as it came through tho forest,
and the melodious music of the water
as it falls over the rocks below the
bridge yonder. Suddenly came a
dread awakening. Throughout Hie
dim and silent halls echoing in the
courtyard, came a wild, despairing
cry—Help! Help!! Murder!!! and
there could be heard the souml of a
deadly struggle. In a moment there
was confusion and dismay. Across the
hull I heard a familiar voice say,
“Quick, Louis, raiuo with your pis
tol.” It was Linton Alfrieud, and,
seizing a chair in lieu of a more ef
fective weapon, I rushed out in tho
hall and stood bewildered, awaiting
the approach of the murderer. Sud
denly I caught sight of a ghostly fig
ure. It wns Lint A. standing armed
to the teeth, guarding Ids threshold.
On all sides arose frightened cries.
Ladies, defenceless ami terrified,
screamed out ill fear. Children cried,
Hie hoarse voices of brave men, anx
iously inquiring the direction and
cause of tlic cries and struggles—all
anxious to apprehend the blood
thirsty villniu who was makiug Hie
dastardly attorn;*’ upon the' lives of
the peaceful sleep, rs. But no one
dared to veu:.;rc out. The halls
were dim with the expiring lights,
and none knew but that the bn filed
assassin hail crouched in a darkened
passage-way ready to spring forth
ami wreak his direful purpose on
whomsoever came within reach.—
Soon the noise gave way loan intense
calm; ail ears were bent to catch a
sound ; all hearts were beating with
apprehension and alarm. Tlic noise
of the struggle had ceased; no sound
cnniR through Hie darkness. Wlmt
did it mean ? Had the murderer ac
complished his foul design? and in
the silence of the night sent to its fi
nal account some soul that hut a few
hours before had been light with hap
piness and mirth ? The silence was
painful, the suspense was torturing.
At last the stillness wns broken, the
sound of a turning latch was heard,
and all eyes were turned iu the di
rection. Slowly a door opened, and
in Ihe faint light could be distinguish
ed Hie out lines of a portly figure.—
AH know it nt once lo be George Col
lier, and his quick-labored breathing
told of a recent desperate struggle.—
Wha! could have been the matter?—
Who had attacked George? Was he
wounded ? Had he hart or killed his
assailant? These questions flitted
through every mind as he stood a mo
ment panting; then he spoke, his
voice trembling from the violent ex
ertion, and through the silence came
the words: “Lint—go to bed all of
you. It’s all right, it was only me—
no harm done,” and shutting the
door quickly he retired, leaving the
anxious crowd to follow his example,
relieved to know that nobody wns
hurt, but still in the dark as to the
cause of the disturbance.
Next morning, however, George
revealed the mystery. He ami ids
brother Calvin, twelve months sepa
rated from each other, were occupy
ing the same bed, and after talking
themselves tired, both fell asleep.
And Calvin dreamed. And in his
vision it seemed that George arose
aud left the room, and when he had
gone again the door opened, and a
hideous human shape came slowly in.
For a moment it stopped, then with
a spring reached the bed, and grasp
ing Calvin by the throat began a des
perate attempt to strangle him. What
would linve been the outcome of Hie
dream may never be known, but it
happened that George, in his slum
bers, disturbed perhaps by d dream,
threw his hand over and struck Cal
vin in the face. The latter dreaming,
thought it was his assailant, ami with
a bound sprang up and grappled
George, and fell upon him with blows
thick and fast. Thus rudely awak
ened, George struck out manfully and
rapidly, and unable in the confusion
and darkness to distinguish his op
ponent, and not knowing whether
lie was armed or single handed, lie
cried aloud for help, ami ns the
blows fell faster upon him yelled
“Murder.” At length Calvin, awnk-
ened from Ills dream, fiSsnUthc cry,
recognized the voice, censed ids blows,
and—nn explanation followed, ns we
have told. As usual, Albany’s boys
were on hand, ready to do or die.
Crusjfc Adolph, Bob, Jesse, Phil, all
sprang up nt the first sound of war,
am)' pistol in hand, rushed forward to
the fray. At the foot of the steps
thc)y met, and each with' character-
politeness gave way for the oth-
nd insisted on his going up first,
each was equally polite, and
illier would be rude enough to
i are in the con pfroceed the others, and thus they

Bedford Springs, August 6.—I mot
Mr. James McDougal, a lumber mer
chant of Baltimore, of high respecta
bility, and one of the genial class of
springs visitors, who become general
ly known and popular. Mr. McDou-
S al lias been au ardent republican, a
emoniac condition he reached after
starting in life as an old line whig and
passing thence through the purgatory
of Douglas democracy. Mr. McDon-
gul lost forlv thousand and some odd
dollars by tho rebellion, a circum
stance which may account for some
of Ids bitterness against the rebels.—
They say he was in danger of being
lynched In the unpatriotic atmosphere
of Baltimore in Ihe earlier days of
tho rebellion, a fact which 1 can read
ily believe, for lie is evidently brim-
full of strong opinions and plain lan
guage, and lias no disposition to
check their overflow. He told me
something that you wilt be glad to
hear, aud which I am surprised that
wc never read before.
When Mr. Lincoln issued his email
cipatiou proclamation—I believe that
was tlie occasion—a deputation of cit
izeus from Baltimore weut ou to
Washington to congratulate him.
Mr. McDougal wasoueof the num
ber. They speedily got through with
their address at the white house, and
were about to leave with the declara
tion that they would not further tres
pass upon the president’s valuable
time.”
“Tako seats, boys, take scats I” ex
claimed Mr. Lincoln, as he rang for
chairs to be brought in. “It would
he strange if I could not spare a half
hour or an hour for conversation with
friends who have come front Balti
more to seo me-”
The visitors sat down and spent
nearly an hour in conversation. Pres
ently the subjects ofgenerals came up
and various opinions were expressed
as to who was the ablest officer on our
side. When a great many opinions
had been given, Mr. Lincoln said:
“Gentlemen, in my judgment you
liavo not struck the right man yet.”
And of course all were anxious to
hear him name the man and asked
him to do so. Ho said:
“It is General Hancock.”
The countenance of the visitors ex
pressed their surprise, nnd one of
them ventured to say that lie feared
Hancock was too rash.
“Yes,” said Mr. Lincoln, “so some
of the older generals have said to me
aud I have said to them that I have
watched General Hancock’s conduct
very carefully, and I have found that
when he goes* into action he achieves
his purpose and comes out with a
smaller list of casualities than any of
them. Bold he is, but not rash. ’
Why, gentlemen, do you know what
his record was at West Point?”
And Mr. Lincoln went to his book
shelf, an taking down and army reg
ister showed the position in which
Hancock had graduated, and that,
furthermore, in a class that was one
of the most distinguished that had
ever graduated at the military acade
my. Continuing to speak of him in
the highest terms, lie further said :
“I tell you, gentlemen, thntifhis
life and strength are spared, I be
lieve that General Hancock is destin
ed to be one of the most distinguish
ed men of the age. Why, when I go
down in the morning to open my
mail—and I arise at 4 o’clock—I de
clare that I do it in fear and tremli-
ling, lest I may hear that Hancock ha9
been killed or wounded.”
Colquitt anil Norwood.
The lion. Thomas M. Norwood,
Ex-U. 8. Senator, has consented lo
sacrifice himself for Hie good of the
minority. The canvass, so far, will
ho between Colquitt, the represena-
Hve of the majority, and Norwood^
the minority. As ‘far as wc are con
cerned, if the Colquitt I'nclion was re
gardlcssof the welfare of the party,
so was tlicaiiti-Colquill. If Colquitt
is an independent, Norwood is a dis-
organizor. Aud if we cannot support
Colquitt, we desire to lie distinctly
understood, that we wilt not support
Norwood. In addition to llio above,
considering, as we do, that Win. II.
Felton is Hie greatest political curse
of Ihe ago, we could not countenance
a candidate who was a second choice
lo hitn. Again, with our opinion, we
could not enlist with any faction
which claimed to repie-eut the simon-
pure Democratic doctrine, and which
nt the same time tendered its stand

Mr. Josiah L. Warren, of Chatham
who mapped out tho programme of
tire minority, has written a card to
the Savannah News explaining that
only those gentlemen whose names
were signed to the Felton telegram
are responsibly therefor. We are
perfectly well acquainted with our
friend Warren’s propensity for en
gineering practical jokes, but does he
mean to tell us that Ids telegram to
Dr. Felton was unauthorized by the
minority ? Is it his purpose to con
fess now, after all is over ai:d the
worst has come to considerably the
worst, that if Dr. Felton bad accepted
the invitation made to him by the
three leaders of the minority, their
followers would have repudiated the
result? If our friend Warren is se
rious in wliat he says in his card, it
was his purpose to make Dr. Felton
ti.e victim of a huge joke. Dr. Fel
ton will no doubt be surprised to
learn that the three gentlemen who
sent him the telegram had no author
ity to seud it—for the telegram itself
conveys an entirely different impres
sion.
The New York Herald publishes
Wade Hampton’s speech at Staunton,
Virginia in full, to show that he did
not say therein that “the political
principles of the Democratic party,
are the same for which General Lee
and Jackson fought in the war of the
“rebellion.” As the statement that
General Hampton did givo uttterance
to this sentiment has obtained wide
circulation, through tho industry of
Republican Journals, tho publication
of the speech itself in the literal lan
guage employed by General Hamp
ton in its delivery, showing that he
said no such thing, makes it incum
bent on these journals, if they have
any sense of justice left to correct the
misrepresentation. Will they have
the honesty to do it? We shall see.
About the Size of It.
It is said that Colquitt silenced ox-
Governor Smith by giving him a $3,-
000 position. This would prove Col
quitt shrewd enough, if not very com
plimentary to Smith. Our opinion is
Governor, that some of these other
fellows want to be silenced, and it
wouldn’t take $3,000 either Atlanta
