A bov in Wyoming territory has just
killed another with a rock. The boy
who killed another with a toy pistol is

to prove that “he did’nt know it was

waiting for.
The announcement that a party of
Servians isin St. Petersburg for the pur
pose of proposing the overthrow of King
Milan in Russia’s interest is cool and
even cynical. But why should not the
ezar’s capital be the resort of king killers
and king kidnapers V Russia is bent on
protecting the traitors who plotted
agaiiiHt Prince Alexander, and might do
as much for conspirators who should
dethrone King Milan in the interest of
I’rince Karageorgevics. More than one
plot seems to have already existed in
Belgrade for the assassination or expul
sion of King Milan, but until lately at
tention bus not been called to St. Peters
burg as a headquarters for the shielding
of people engaged in the abduction or
abdication of rulers inimical to Russia.
The process is rather dangerous to roaort,
to The doctrine of the divine right of
kings finds fewer adherents everywhere
than in elder days, but it is at least. a
doctrine that one does not expect to find
assailed in so practical a way from the
thrones of autocrats themselves.

The Atlanta Constitution and tlie Macon
Telegraph are two of the leading news
papers in Georgia. They are representa
tive oouthern journals, and the large
patronage received illustrates the high es
teem in which they nre held by the
people of the state.
The readers of these two papers can
hardly have Failed to notice the character
of an editorial in each that appeared Sun
day, and the effort to impress upon the
public that each was right on tlte fol
lowing day. The Constitution charges
the Telegraph with ottering an insult to
Gen. John B. Gordon, and criticises that
paper very severely for the manner in
which it speaks of the governor-elect of
this state. On the same date the Tel
egraph reads the Constitution a severe
lecture l'or the reference made to Mr.
Dorsheimer, editor of the New York
Star, who is soon to visit Atlanta. Both
articles were, perhaps, unnecessarily se
vere, and however much of an attempt
was made to disguise the fact, malice
was the chief moter in both instances.
It is exceedingly to be regretted that
these two newspapers should constantly
exhibit so much ill-feeling toward each
other. We submit that the manner in
which the Telegraph referred to General
Gordon was uncalled for, but it is plain
that the criticism made by the Constitu
tion was prompted by just such a motive
as that which caused the article to be
produced. It is perfectly natural—and
we use tlie word natural, advisedly—that
each of these journals may, at times, lay
themselves liable to criticism, but unless
the criticism is made in a spirit of fair
ness and good nature with a view of ac
complishing some good, and not in
malice or personal spleen, it would be
much better to abstain from it entirely.
As matters appear to exist between the
Constitution and the Telegraph, they are
bardly proper subjects to criticise each
I other, and if the information is of any
value to them, the public have learned
I to lay hut little stress on anything they
have to say regarding each other.
| Twenty years ago the great slate of
I (ieorgia was the hot bed of two contend
ing and passionate parties. They stood
; on the further shore of a wilderness
! through which they had just jour-
i noyed, fighting as they inarched
| —a wilderness whose soil was
blood, whoso air was fire, and
whose sky was the blackness, of dark
ness forever. Each contending party at
tributed its troubles to the other. And
it seemed natural if it didn’t seem right,
that there should be a grudge in every
heart, and a musket on every shoulder
j and an oath on every lip. The bitter
ness of both, sides found its vent through
the journals of that day. Every
page snapped with semi.profane
adjective, and down every column there
marcheh the inky-black funeral lcor-
tego of some man’s reputation. Even
tins freshet of venom did not seem out
of place because it was in harmony with
the time|. But those times are gone.
The muskets are stacked; the blazing
passions nre cool, and the hands that met
in conflict are now clasped in friendship
to form a bridge across the bloody
chasm. How ill, then, does it become
two great journals in this time of peace,
professing the same principles and flying
the same flag, to be forever clinched in a
senseless conflict, employing no manoeu
vre but libel and no weapon but mud.
The attitude of the Constitution and the
Telegraph is a scene. It is a scene that
lias made nobody laugh nor nobody cry,
nor nobody angry. But it is a scene that
has made the state of Georgia sick.
“Brethren, as much tvs lieth in you
live peaceably with all men.” So says
the Scripture, and such is the Enquirer-
Sun’s faith. Yes, brethren, let us have
peace! peace! It is sweeter than the
scent of the flowers; it is brighter than
the glint of the sunbeams, and it brings
a voiceless benediction with it which
makes us know that this world of sin
and smoke is sailing close alongside of a
better one. Let us have peace.
OI K NEW CONUKESSHAir.
Hon. Thomas’W. Grimes, of Muscogee
county, was on yesterday elected to rep
resent the fourth district in the fiftieth
congress. The vote was comparatively a
small one, owing to the fact that he was
virtually without opposition, and there
was no excitement to call the people to
the polls. The contest in this, as well as
in most of the congressional districts in
this state, was fought and won in the
nominating convention. The popularity
of the congressman-elect was evinced on
that occasion, and those who supported
him so heartily recognized the fact that
a nomination was equivalent to an elec
tion.
That congressional honors in the
fourth district have been well bestowed,
none who “know Mr. Grimes will for a
moment question. Though a young man,
lie lias bad some experience in legisla
tive affairs, having served for several
terms in the lower house of the Georgia
legislature and also in the state senate.
He is an earnest democrat and has served
the party as loyally as any man in the
south, and has at no time or under any
circumstances failed to perform what he
believed to be his duty. In honoring
him the people of this district have done
well, as ho will reflect credit upon the
entire state and will prove himself equal
to any emergency that may arise. When
he has added experience to the ability
he possesses, we believe that he will be a
valuable aequisition to the southern del
egation and that he w ill be the peer of
any of them.
