Hill’s organs are just now fretting because Mr. Cleveland was the central figure at the recent Reform Club banquet, while Mr. Hill was only con spicuous by his absence. It is claimed that Mr. Hill’s absence was brought about by Mr. Cleveland’s friends who did not want him in the way, but the true explan ation seems to be that Mr. Hill declined an invitation and remained away because he did not wish to shine on that occasion as a lesser light Moreover, he is reported to have said in declining, that he had done his speakin before the election. The absence of Mr. Hill did not break up the banquet nor de tract from the good Democratic cheer that prevailed. Mr. Cleveland was the central figure, and he was entitled to the promt nence, although it can be said that it was not of his seeking. By plain inference,Mr. Hill seeks to con trast his active participation in the recent campaign with the fact that Mr. Cleveland made no stump speeches. ’ Mr. Hill is de serving the thanks of his party for what he did, albeit he and his friends seem to entertain an exaggerated idea of the value of his services. But it was not expected of Mr. Cleveland that he should make stump speeches in the campaign. It would not have been proper or decorous, or in any way fitting for the ex-President to have done so. But no man who is inform ed as to National politics can doubt that Mr. Cleveland contributed more than any one else to the sue and the result. He made the issue, and his courage and his convictions pervaded the memorable campaign every where. Mr. Cleveland’s great, speech last Tues day night at the Tariff Reform Club in New York, on “The Campaign of Educa tion” was appropriate, to the occasion, it was a stateman’s tribute to the American people and it was full of encouragement for Democrats in the great political struggle that is already casting its shadow over the country. The Washington Correspon dent of the Constitution says that the Democratic Congressmen from many States strongly criticize this speech as a bid by Mr. Cleveland for the renomination and an effort to boom himself. We are sorry for the Democratic Congressmen whether they be from Georgia, or else where, who express or hold such an opinion of the speech. We fear the correspondent fell into the hands of some of the Hill boomers, who look upon Mr, Cleveland with jaundiced eyes. We are at a loss to see how any intelligent, unselfish Democrat could fail to see in that speech the greatness of the man, his courage, his honesty and earnestness of purpose, all permeated and dominated by an exultant and defiant Democracy. A SENATE STEAL. A Western exchange is hopeful of the opinion that if Jay Gould gets through using the money of the country by Jan uary 15, the rest of the 64,000,000 people may be able to make some investments. The Duchess of Marlborough has settled with her creditors and sailed away with Dukey to Blenheim Castle. The settle ment left her still an income of $85,000 a year with which to keep up the reputation of that historic pile. One of the most noticeable features in today’s Enquikkk-Sun is the number and excellence of its special correspondence. These letters are all bright, entertaining and instructive. A writer in the Christian Union believes that genuine, honest enjoyment of Christ mas is dying out. If that writer had been in Columbus the past week he would never have uttered such a declaration. At the summer session the Legislature might put in its spare time, if it has any, in sponging out of the code a few of the dead letter laws that encumber it. And a beginning might be made on the law re lating to concealed weapons. Pennsylvania politicians are attacking Senator Cameron because he is not pleased with the Force bill. They charge that Don is basely seeking to protect his property interests in the South, and those of other Northern men, who have invested money in this section. And now John Temple Graves has de livered a “message” from the South to the New England Society of Philadelphia. We are glad to credit the Republican House with its one spasm of honesty in resisting the efforts of the Republican Sen ate to filch the public Treasury in the in terest of the clerks of pampered Senators. The Senator who i3 not a Committee Chair, man is allowed a private secretary to look after his correspondence and,in some cases, to write his speeches, who is compensated at the rate of $6 per day during the ses sion. Most of these clerks are broken down politicians, political henchmen, or members of the Senator’s family. It is safe to say that not one of them earns more than the per diem the government pays him, and it is doubtful if the ma jority of them earn anything like it. The Senate, for some time, has been trying to put these clerks oi^ Uncle Sam’s annual pay roll, which would provide a living for them during the months when Congress is not in session, and when they are abso lutely rendering no service. But this is not ail The Senate is endeavoring, by efforts not very honest, to secure an appropriation to pay these clerks the per diem during the interval between the • two sessions of this Congress—another back salary steal. The House has resisted this scheme, and is en titled to the thanks of the country for it. The people ought not to be made pay a liberal salary to these clerks during the Congressional recess, nor to pay them for a recess already passed. It is nothing short of a steal, and ought to be defeated. “Sa<-sietv” and its follies with relentless satire It is even racier than” The Rock or the Rye.” the travestry on “Quick or the Dead,” which has been run through sev eral editions and is in great demand yet. Those who have seen extracts from Ward McAllister's book will keenly enjoy this bright little sketch. It is only 25 cents a copy. “Four Years in Rebel Capitals’’ is the title of a neatly cloth bound volume by the same author, issued by the Gossip Printing Company, and is one of the most entertaining and graphic narritives of stir ng events and incidents during the war that we have read. It is in Mr. DeLeon's best style, and is based on facts of the author’s personal knowledge and experience. It is a charming and interesting picture of the South during the eventful period between 1861-65, and is a valuable contribution to the inside history of- the war. The book lias received the highest econiums from the revenues in the North, and has had very large sale in that section, where its graphic and impartial description is ap preciated by the intelligent people. It should be in the. library of every Southern gentleman. The new edition is now ready, and the price is only $1.25. “Juny, or Only One Girl’s Story,” by the same prolific and versatile author is also on our desk. It is a novel of absorb ing interest, dramatic and entertaining far beyond the average work of fiction, and well up to the standard and of the talented author’s genius. It is bright and clever, and is replete with thrilling and humorous situations. It is handsomely printed on fine paper, and is on sale at 50 cents a copy. The January number of “Godey” stands ahead of all the fashion journals. The illustrations are numerous and first-class. Three serials are commenced, which prom ise well; “O K.,” by Olivia Lovell Wilson, is humorous and witty; “The Pride of the Whittingtons,” by Adna Lightner, will, we think, be full of strong situations; “The Filjeano Mystery” charms the reader already. Numerous holiday stories and poems add to the attractions of the num ber, while all the departments are well filled. Subscribe now for the cheapest fashion magazine published. Godey Pub lishing Company, Philadelphia, Pa. Price $2 pet* year. Harper’s Magazine opens the New Year with an exceptionally fine number; among the more notable articles, handsomely il lustrated, being part one of a new story by that charming writer, Charles Egbert Craddock. This story alone is worth the price of the Magazine, which, however, is full of “good meat.” The table of con tents presents a rare, intellectual feast and a better.number than the January has never been issued by this noted publishing house. The prominent article in the Arena for January is entitled, “Are There Objective Appartions?” by Alfred Russell Wallace Popular Leaders—Grover Cleveland, by Wilbur Lawrence is also an excellent and well written paper, which will attract much attention. “A Daughter of Lilith and a Daughter of Eve,” by Kate Buffing ton Davis, is specially interesting and at tractive, and the remainder of the con tents represent the contributions of well known and popular writers. The Arena is one of the best magazines of the day, and is increasing in popularity. It is pub lished by the Arena Publishing Company, Boston, at $5 a year. The Boston Herald is confident that Benny Harrison will not be renominated for the Presidency. First, because there was not timber in him for two terms. Second, because there was not timber in him for one term aside from his locality, and as Indiana has ceased to be a doubtful State Harrison is no longer a name to conjure with among Republicans. A NOVEL WAR. BLOOUY FIGHT BETWEEN RIVAL JUSTICES AND SHERIFFS. Lumbertox, Miss., December 27.— Davidston, a small town, a mile and a half below here, was the scene of a fatal shooting affray this afternoon at 3 o'clock, in wkch six men were shot, one being killed, and two others fatally wounded. The trouble originated from a fight at a party on Christmas evening, near Red Top, between four men—F. T. Favre, one Parker, Neal Strabn, and John Hickman, when Favre fired on the crowd, killing Parker and dangerously wounding the other two. Favre was ar rested and placed in the Ellisville jail for safe keeping by J. F. Cocke, Justice of the Peace of district No. 1. Justice of the Peace J. M. Smith, of district No 2, dispatched Deputy Sheriff W. W. Stack- still with the necessary papers to obtain Favre’s release on an $S0O bond. Sheriff Shivers, upon hearing of his release, summoned his dep uties and came to Davidston on a local freight to rearrest Favre. Just as ■ the train came to a halt the firing begun. Favre was killed instantly and Sheriff J. M. Shivers was shot through the left lung with a Winchester rifle ball, and Deputy Sheriff T. B. White was shot in the left side with a pistol. The ball passed through and came out on the right side. Both the latter are announced mortally wounded. The two wounded sheriffs were brought to this place, where they are receiving the best attention. sent to all the gypsy bands throughout this section, and they came to Dawson in large numbers from Albany, Hawkinsville and other places.

Our dispatches this morning from the capital report the transfer of the Western and Atlantic railroad from the old lessees to the new, which occurred yesterday after noon without delay and without any fric tion. Those who apprehended that some terrible complication would arise at the last moment, which would smash the new lease, may breathe freely today, while all the people can be congratulated over the result. The disposition of the State’s great property is no longer a troublesome issue, and a most profitable return from it is as sured for many years to come. General Miles has been vaguely men tioned in some quarters as a possible candidate for the Republican nomi nation for President. His chief recom mendation seems to be that Mrs. Miles is a niece of John Sherman and a sister-in-law of Senator Cameron. It is no violation of confidence to warn the General that neither Sherman nor,Cameron will be con sulted to any great extent by the American people when they come to name the next President.

The Enquib- THE LONDON TIMES BRINGS IT UNDER SCRUTINY. London, December 27.—The Times, today, published a three-head column arti cle severely criticizing Gen. Booth’s scheme of social regeneration as set forth in his book, “In Darnest, England,and the Way Out.” The writer of the article says that Gen. Booth cannot think he is to be authorized to convert by force, moral munaties, irredeemable slaves of vice, crime, and drink. He cannot expect us to believe he can compel to work men who, admittedly, will Dot work, or that any colony of such men, even under the stimu lus of the lash, which Gen. Booth is too clever to ask for, could be compelled to be self-supporting. The article accuses Booth of a child-like ignorance of farming and of recklessness in entering on a con tract for the purchase of land for a farm ing colony in Essex. It admits that there is likely to be a certain percentage of suc cess in connection with the farm and col ony schemes, but questions wheth er General Booth is the right man to control the operations. An editorial states that the article is the first installment of a critical examina tion of the scheme by a well qualified writer, and says: “We do not affect to regard the scheme with anything but pro found distrust. We urge the public not to conclude in a fit of hysterical emotion, that Booth deserves ta be entrusted with an immense sum of money, but wait and hear eferytning that can be urged against the scheme.” to the enterprising drug firm of SULLIVAN & DRUMBOR for securing the sale of the celebrated “ Perfected Crystal Lenses,” made hv Faulkner, Kellan & Moore, of Atlanta, Ga., the only manu facturing opticians in the South.

Dublin, December 27.—The Freeman’s Journal today announces that the confer ences between William O’Brien and Har rington have resulted in an understanding whereby the funds of the National League, now in the hands of that organization, are to be devoted to the maintenance of ten ants who were evicted for not paying their rents under the plan of the campaign which was inaugurated on the different estates throughout Ireland by the Nat ional League. In addition, these funds will be used to assist the sufferers who are de pending upon the league for support. All disbursements will be made by Kenny and Webb, members of Parliament and joint treasurers of the league. MURDERED AND MUTILATED. Sayville, Long Island, December 27.—Bohemia is a village of 500 inhabi tants, three miles north of here, occupied entirely by Bohemians, most of whom are cigarmakers and quiet people. Here Frank Kruliz, last night killed Winnie Croupa, man, notwithstanding the name, and mutilated his body in a fashion somewhat like “Jack the Ripper.” Later in the night he walked in a saloon in Bohemia and laid one of his victim’s fingers on the counter and said he had killed Croupa. Nobody believed him, and he was ordered out of the saloon. He then went to the house of a constable, laid the dead man’s finger on the dining table and an nounced his crime. The constable was nearly as hard to convince as the people in the saloon, but after listening to Kruliz’s circumstantial description of the murder, he concluded to investigate, and, under Kruliz’s guidance, found the corpse. Kruliz had killed Croupa by cutting his throat, and had disembowled and other wise mutilated him. One ear was found in Kruliz's pocket. When the Bohemians were satisfied that the murderer’s story was true the officers had great difficulty in preventing them from lynching Kruliz. Jealousy and revenge was the motive. FRENCH NEWSPAPER FAKES. Paris, December 27.—The announce ment. made in the newspapers of this city that a formal conference between the Irish leaders will take place Monday next, is officially stated to be premature. William O’Brien complains of the num ber of false statements made in the newspapers and at tributed to Gill and to himself. O’Brien specially classes as untrue the assertion made that he would recommend that Par nell be maintained as the leader of the Irish party. O’Brien has not yet seen Parnell, but it is said he expects to meet him next week.
