There was very little business disposed
of by the General Assembly yesterday. It
seems that this Legislature is following in
the steps of its predecessors, making Sat-
turday a holiday.
A French doctor has recently been col
lecting statistics with regard to those of
liis patients who complain of nervous
affections, with the result that he has
•come to the conclusion that the prime
cause of all the evil is the practice of read
ing in the train.
Russell Harrison told a St. Paul Globe
man the other day that nobody could
rightfully lay blame for the Republican
defeat upon “pa’s administration.” He
said that the “poor, deluded farmers of the
West” did not understand the McKinley
hill, but would come to it in another two
years.
The Senatorial contest over in Alabama
waxeth exceedingly interesting. The im
pression is that the fight has narrowed
down to Senator Pugh and ex-Govemor
Seay, and that Seay’s friends are anxious
to delay the election as long as possible,
believing it will be in the interest of their
candidate.
We reproduce in todays’ Enquirer-Sun
the sketches of the Baptist, Catholic and
St. Paul churches, which were published
Jn our issue of the 12th, with history of
St. Luke, with illustration. The former
sketches are republeshed by request, many
■who desired to obtain copies to send
friends, being unable to obtain them, the
entire edition having been exhausted.
The New York Mail and Express was
rather tickled a few months since at the
.ruthless manner in which Democratic
Representatives were ousted from their
seats by the bulldozing Republican major
ity, has suddenly become opposed to this
wholesale stealing, and now sings another
tune. In a recent editorial it says: “A
program of wholesale unseating has two
sides to it. The Democrats can unseat
Mr. Lodge if they choose, and as many
more Republicans as they choose, bat in
the end such action will do them much
more harm than good. The sense of fair
play in the American people is too strong
to allow that sort of thing to go very far
without rebuke.” It is a pity the es
teemed Mail and Express did not think of
this before.
PROSPEROUS, DESPITE WALL
STREET’S FLURRY.
The excitement in Wall street, if long
continued, would necessarily have an in
jurious influence upon all lines of business
in all sections of the country, but as trade
and manufacturing interests everywhere
are prosperous, it is not probable that the
stock jobbing operations of New York will
have more than a temporary effect upon
general business. Under any circum
stances, though, the South is in a better
position to stand even a panic than any
other section. It has gathered big crops
that will aggregate in value for the year
nearly $1,000,000,000, its cotton alone, in
cluding the seed, counting up this year be
tween $450,000,000 and $500,000,000, every
dollar of which it will draw from the North
and Europe. Its farmers are practically
out of debt, and many of them have a
good surplus; its manufacturing interests
are prosperous, and its railroads are
crowded with freight traffic. The whole
South is advancing rapidly, and if depend
ent upon its own financial resources, could
stand the strain far better than the
West. But the enormous shrinkage
in stock values in Wall street will
tend to drive money from that cen
ter of wild speculation to safer in
vestments in Southern development and
manufacturing interests. The decline in
twenty-three stocks on the New York Ex
change since November 1, represents a
wiping out of $100,000,000, and the people
who have seen fortunes swept away like
this will prefer to put their money else
where in the future. The daily accumula
tion of wealth in the United States is
enormous, and it must find a field of in
vestment somewhere. Driven from Wall
street speculations and no longer finding
any profitable openings in the West, as in
former years, it must inevitably turn to
the South. Thus, instead of Wall street’s
flurry injuring the South, it will help to
drive a still larger volume of money this
way.
The Manufacturer’s Record of the cur
rent week, which makes a point on this,
in an editorial captioned “The Prosperous
South,” further continues:
The past week shows continued activity
in the organization of industrial enterprises
and of town-building companies. Salem,
Va., leads off with an appropriation by the
several land companies there of $500,000
in cash to secure the establishment there of
a rolling mill, cotton mill, car works and
other enterprises; in Buena Yista a $1,000,
000 company has been organized to build
basic steel works, and three improvement
and building companies with an aggregate
capital of $300,000 have been started in
the same place; Glasgow has organized a
$100,000 car works company; Norfolk,
three land and improvement companies
with a capital of $700,000; Wheeling, W.
Va., is to have new steel works; at Vicks
burg, Miss, a $600,000 phosphate company
has been chartered, and at Aberdeen, in
the same State, a $50,000 machine shop
company; at Algiers, La., a $75,000 brew
ery will be built; Bessemer, Ala., has organ
ized a $100,000 pipe manufacturing com-
pan; Baltimore, a $200,000 car company;
Bartow, Fla., a $50,000 manufacturing
company; Blacksburg, S. C., a $40,000
stove foundry; Rusk, Texas, a $500,000
company to build an iron furnace, and
Rogers, Ark., a $40,000 ice factory. These
enterprises, scattered all over the South,
show how widespread is the activity that
is seen from Maryland to Texas. Without
any fictitious speculation or wild booming
the South is steadily pressing forward,
building new towns, new railroads, new
factories and furnaces, and everywhere
shows evidence of activity and prosperity.
The New York Tribune warns the Re
publicans that to repeal the tariff law now
would mean certain defeat in 1892, and
the Chicago Tribune warns them that if it
isn’t done there’s no hope for them. Tak
ing the testimony of these two Republican
papers, we should say that the high tariff
brethren were located somewhere between
the devil and the deep sea.
The Spaniards of old Spain are by no
means asleep over the chance to celebrate
the four hundredth anniversary of the dis
covery of this neck of woods. A magnifi
cent monument, designed by Spanish
artists, will be erected at Granada, and a
triumphal arch at Barcelona. Each struc
ture will cost $50,000. ’
The Philadelphia Ledger furnishes this
item of news:
Douglas Green, of the old firm of Green
& Bateman, Wall street operators, is in
Paris “on his uppers.” Americans who
have met him describe him as being both
“seedy and needy.” Mrs. Snell-McCrea,
with whom he went through a marriage
ceremony near Fortree Monroe, although
he had a lawful wife in New York, has
remained with him and they are living
together in France. Bnt her magnificent
fortune of $800,000 has vanished, until she
has only a small income on which to live.
NEW MAGAZINES.
Demorest Fashion Monthly for Decem
ber is received, and is the most attractive
number of the year. The handsomely col
ored frontispiece of a Christmas scene is a
gem of art. The contents are varied and
entertaining, embracing short stories,
sketches, poetry, and an admirable house-
hell department, whilst the fashion notes
and plates will prove specially interesting
at this season to the ladies. Demorest’s
r inks as one of the very best magazines of
its class in the country, and is invaluable
to every lady who desires to keep posted
oa matters of great import to the feminine
world.
The Christmas edition of the Cosmopoli
tan magazine is one hundred thousand
copies. The order, as originally given to
the printers, was for 85,000 copies, but
while on the press it was thought advisa
ble to increase tne number to 100,000.
It contains a feature never before at
tempted by any magazine, consisting of
123 cartoons fronuthe brush of Dan Beard,
the now famous artist, who did such won-,
derful illustrations in Mark Twains book,
“The Yankee at the Court of King
Arthur.”
These cartoons are placed at the bottom
of each page of the magazine, and take for
their subject, “Christmas during the Eigh
teen Centuries of the Christian Era, ’ with
variations, showing the way in which we
modem Christians carry out some of the
chief texts of the Christian Gospel.
Above, at each side of the page is a
quaint border, the whole effect being novel
and extremely pleasing, and with the un
usually varied table of contents, will make
such a Christmas number as is worthy to
go into more than 100,000 households.
The frontispieces of the Cosmopolitan
have of late become noted for their beauty,
some of them having as much as four
printings. That for Christmas, while in
but two printings, is not behind anything
that has preceded it in artistic merit.
An excellently illustrated article is one
on teapots, by Eliza Ruhamah Seid-
more. Literary Boston is treated with
numerous portraits, and an article which
comes with the ninetieth birthday of Von
Moltke, sketches the life of the great field-
marshal in an interesting way, and is by
Gen. James Grant Wilson. Elizabeth
Bisland has one of her charming articles.
The Christmas issue contains 228 illus
trations, nearly double the number that
have ever appeared in any illustrated
magazine.
CLOSE OF THE EXPOSITION.
ONE CENT A WORD
Fifteen words or more inserted in this depart
ment for ONE CENT A WORD, cash in advance
each insertion.
The Chattahoochee Valley Exposition
closed its gates yesterday evening.
It was a grand and brilliant success.
Providence smiled upon it, and we were
blessed with ten days of lovely Indian
spring weather.
No Exposition has been mere favored
in this respect. It was an exceptional pe
riod of balmy days.
Thousands of strangers have visited Co
lumbus within this period, and they have
been delighted with the exhibits, and we”
satisfied for their coming.
So far as the exposition is concerned
Columbus has cause to congratulate her
self, and the worthy President, Capt. J. J.
Slade, Vice President T. J. Hunt, the in
defatigable, and Secretary C. B. Grimes,
who showed himself a regular Hercules,
and who has been on a const-ant strain, to
gether with the faithful Board of Directors,
have reason to be gratified at the unmis-
t tkable stamp of public approbation and
pleasure which has been given their ef
forts.
It was a good exhibition; did infinite
credit to Columbus, and most substantial
benefit. Several instances have come to
our knowledge that give practical force to
this declaration. Among the exhibitors
in the stock department was a gentleman
from Kansas, who is so thoroughly pleased
with Columbus that he proposes to locate
here, and is now making liis arrangements
to that end.
So far, so good. Now, in regard
to the practical benefits of this
Exposition to the retail mercan
tile interests alone of Columbus—
there is no doubt that our merchants did
an exceptionally fine trade. In fact some
of them were so busy that they had no
time to attend to anything else than the
wants of the customers who thronged their
stores. A vast amount of money was ex
pended here by the immense crowds which
graced the principal streets at various
hours of the day, goiug to and returning
from the Exposition. We have it from
one prominent retail dry goods firm, that
on Wednesday last their cash sales exceed
ed over five hundred dollars, and during
the Exposition season, up to Friday,
night the average was over $250 a day, cash
sales, the great bulk of which came from
strangers. Doubtless the experience of
many other merchants was the same in a
greater or less degree. In fact, that nearly
every branch of trade was stimulated
there can be no question, and he who con
tends that this exposition has not been of
material and substantial advantage to
Columbus reckons outside the pale of
knowledge.
The Exposition is over, and was a suc
cess. Its effects have been felt, and will
hereafter be manifest. Columbus has been
well advertised, and will reap the bene
fit. Credit is due therefore and should be,
as it is, awarded the Chattahoochee Valley
Exposition Company, for having inaugur
ated and so successfully carried to a close
undoubtedly the best Exposition in the
South this year. ,

Cure is taken internally, and acts directly on the

of the best physicians in this country for years,
and is a regular prescription. It is composed of
the best tonics known, eo obined with the best

Thb Eminent Scientist
and Author, writes the
editor as follows:
“I think you have succeeded
in the very difficult task of im
proving on all existing liter
ary periodicals. The articles
deal with questions of vital
interest to every thoughtful
person, and they are all
well written, original, and
thorough, without being
heavy.”
THE ARENA

Containing the best thoughts
from the greatest brains of the
age, on all social, ethical, religious,
and economic problems.
Each issue contains one
or more magnificent fun
paged portraits of leading
thinkers on plate paper.
Each larae contain* a complete

Rev. CYRUS A. BARTOL, D. D.,
The Distinguished New
England Clergyman,writes
as follows;
“The place that was wait
ing for a periodical, not only
free and able, but catholic and
comprehensive,—fair to every
thinker and just to all thought,
while open to any subject in
which ou r common humanity
was concerned,— in my judg
ment you fill. The Arena
is wider and loftier than any
other broad or high church.
It is the most cosmopolitan of
any magazine in this country
or the world.”
