LETTER PROM GENERAL ALEXANDER. The following letter was received from General Alexander by a gentleman in this city on Thursday: New York, November 22, 1838.—Dear Sir: In reply to the inquiries as to my position and views I would say—I am not prepared to say that I am a “candidate,” but I have consented to serve if elected by my friends—and they are certainly pre paring to make the race if, when the time comes, they have assurance of effective support. If they do not, they will prob ably abandon it—I don’t know. I notice efforts in the press to prejudice myself and friends by rumors that if I am elected the Toad will be managed, not in the interest of Savannah or of Georgia, but for some foreign city or corporation. With refer ence to that I have only this to say; If I General Alexander Announces HisCw- didacy.

Savannah News. The stock market was quiet yesterday. A few shares of Central woie sold at 117 and some was offered at 11.74, but there were no buyers. There is an imprest:!on that the New York partin.s wiio bougut heavily up to a week ago are waiting for a tumble, and that an effort is being niude to keep the market down. President Raoul returned yesterday morning from New York. He oays that the amount of stock held there is greatly 'exaggerated. The parties who have been buying in New York claim to control 35,- 1)00 shares, sufficient to carry the election. Capt. Raoul says that they have nothing like that amount. TUB NEW YORK STOCK, A little over a mouth ago it was esti mated that altogether 20,000 shares wero held in New York, and a large portion of this stock is known to he favorablo to Capt. Raoul. The only stock that has been bought since then has been bought sinco November 1. The New York parties who are buying up the stock and who will name Gen. Al exander as their candidate do so, it is said, because he is looked upon ns the most available man and because of the large vote be can command at the clectiou. Capt. Raoul has no fear as to the result. He does not believe that enough stock can be drawn upon the market, except in the interests of a new management. THE GREEN STOCK. The Green stock, although it was the balance of power four years ago, will not be so importnat an element in the coining election. All that time the stock was very closely divided between General Alexan der and Captain Raoul, and the 6800 shares of Mrs. Green, through whose proxies Captain Raoul carried the election, then gave the balance of power. In the present contest the Green stock docs not play so important a part. PRESIDENT RAOTL IN NEW YORK. The New York World of Thursday con tains an interview with President Raoul, in whioh he says, in reply to an inquiry if he had anything to say in regard to the condition of the Central: “I have nothing special to say on that point. The annual report of the company for the post year has just been issued and gives a clear idea of its affairs.” “How is It as to the report of the con test for tho control of the road 7” *‘1 understand that there is to be a con test.” “What are the issues involved ?” •‘I know of no issues of management or policy. Certainly there aro none avowed. The present management is conceded to be honest, and, I believe, fairly capable. The question at issue, so far as I can dis cern ft, is whether the management shall continue to be what may be termed a Geor gia management or become what may be properly designated a Now York manage ment.’ « “Is tho majority of the stock hold in Georgia that they aro entitled to keep it a Georgia management?” “Yes, the majority is owned in Georgia. The balance, which is a minority, is wide ly scattered.” “Is the stook held in largo blocks?” "No. There uro only two interests repre senting any considerable block. A large majority of the stock is owned by holders of 500 shares or less. A considerable por tion is owned by holders of fifty shares. A surprising amount of it is owned in ten share lots and less. There arc over 20,000 stockholders in the company.” CONFIDENT OF THE RESULT. “When is your annual election and what do you think the chances aro of the suc cess of your opponents ?” “The election will be hold on t he first Monday in January. I feel no apprehen sion as to the result.” “Your opponents claim to own a majority of the stuck ?” “Yes, I have heard that they make such a claim, but I know that it is not so.” “They claim to have tho llelty Green stock. Docs not that settle the question ?” “By no means. It is true that the Green stock gave the bnnlatice of power four fears ago, hut circumstances have changed very much, so that stock will not again play so important a part.” “Can’t, they buy the stock required?” “They may do so, of course, but they must first find sellers. I scarcely believe a sufficient amount can be drawn upon the market for that purpose, except at prices altogether out of roach. I think it would be safe to say that more thau half of the stock of Die company is owned by people who have held it t hrough all the fluctua tions of the company’s fortunes. Much of it is owned by women, minors, estates and charitable institutions. These people hold their securities as investments. They form the conservative element of the company, and can be always reiied on to enst the r vote to perpetuate a conservative manage ment such as the compauy lias prospered under since it was chartered, more than fifty years ago.” NO FEAR OF THE RESULT. Captain Ilaoul held an informal confer ence upon his return here yesterday with a number of the directors of the Central, and the situation was talked over. Neither Captain Raoul nor his friends feel any ap prehension as to tho result of tho election, although a strong effort is being luado by General Alexander’s friends to control the stock. JMr. Bat Calhoun, who is reported to have cleared *100,000 in the Richmond and Danville deal, Is one of his supporters, and is expected iu Savannah to-day. Gen. Alexander is now in New York, but it is stated that he will bo in Augusta next we ek. The appearance of a circular letter, which is being ^cutout by General Alex ander’s friends, contains the official an nouncement of his candidacy. The circu lar was placed in the hands of leading stockholders here yesterday, and is as follows: CALLING FOR PROXIES. New York, November, 1888.—Mr. : At the request- of a large number of the stockholders of ths Central Railroad and Banking Company of Georgia, who believe that a change in the management will be beneficial to the interests of all, and is de sired by a majority, I have consented to serve as president if elected election in January next, am elected I will manage thu railroad in tho interests of the stock. I will endeavor to imlce the stock valuable and to k up enh stock holder informed of its value and thus en able him torenllzo the interest frdlb it il he is forced to borrow or desires to raaihi-i on bis investment. I believe in the stock and mv family have been very large hold ers of ft for forty years. II, only requires a management which believes in it. to bo believed in by the public, and to stand among the best securities in the United States, insteud of being kicked about at 65 to 75 ns it was up to four months ago. To talk about management “in the interest of Suvunnnh" is.afl twaddle to stockhold ers who have lieen allowed to suffer such depreciation of their property, while the management and their relatives and friends intrench themselves in their inside positions and defend them by cries of “Geonjia” and “Savannah.” And to nny man familiar with railroad management it is double distilled twaddle. For no matter who may own and control the property, it cannot he run profitably ex cept in the joint and mutual interest of it self and every city upon its line. It is "built that way,” und it would be cheaper to take it up—track, bridges and station— and move it than to run it any other way. Any sensible railroad man will tell you that this does not admit of an ’argument, and the public who are not stockholders have as little to fear from any change which will better the stock as the stock holders themselves. Prosperous roads make prosperous communities.

My railway management in Georgia can be easily shown to have been as popular with the community as it was profitable to my stockholders, at a time when the Central was notoriously unpopular. I cannot go into more details in the limit of a letter, hut this I hope is enough to one who knows as much as you do of Central his tory and the present situation. If I run it will be for stockholders and stockholders only. I believe the stock is worth more than it has brought for years, and I believe I can prove it by results. I have put my own money in it in that faith, and no city or town in Georgia has any cause to fear harm from my success. Yours truly, E. P. Alexander.

I had a good doctor. Dr. , to attend him, but he got worse, und the doctor could not cure him. His whole head, face and left ear were in a fearful state, and he suffered terribly. I caught the dis ease from him, and it spread all over my face and neck, and even got into my eyes. Nobody thought wc would ever get bettor. 1 felt sure we were dis figured for life. I heard of the Guticura Reme dies, and procured a bottle of Guticura Resolvent, a box ol Cuticura, and a cake of Guticura Soap, and used them constantly day und night. After using two bottles of Resolvent, four boxes of cuti- cura and four cakes of Hoap, we are perfectly cured without a scar. My boy’s skin is now like satin.
