A dry poods cle; k who wna staying after ordering his dinner at a Wash ington street restaurant the other day, was requested by the waiter to take oli urge fora minute while he stepped around t.ho corner. Before the waiter returned, a big, hungry- lookir.g customer entered, entrenoli- ed himself behind the firs*; table, glared at tho bill ot fare, hold upside UoWn, Hud Savagely demanded wlmt there was to eat. The clerk saw that this was an emerg*uoy that muat be met, and, after pinning on a napkin, approached and ran over the card after the manner of the coun ter: “I shall be pleased,” said he, “to show you a very stylish line. We hav« a ueiit article in tomato soups— we are opening a new invoice of white fish—we can put up a superi or quality of veal, ur lamb with mint sauce—-and lure, 0, here is n lemon .pie that is all the rsge, and— “All (he—“put in the customer, catching his breath. “See here, young man.

It is dangerous ts tiie permauency of the Democratic purty that such tilings ure true. It is sud to contem plate how fust tho old landmarks are fading from signt, and men are grow ing cureless about them, We waru tire people that Uadioalism is watch ing the divisions in onr ranks. Such men as Stephons, Felton, id el homne gtHHf, are surely doing more to resus citate the odious principles of Radi calism in Georgia than t hundred open and avowed members of that party could possibly do.
