COVINGTON* GA., OCT. 27, 1JG6. Eor Congress, JOHN D. STEWART, of Griffin. CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION The election for members of the 60ih CongTess will lake place next Tuesday, the 2J day ef November. The campaign has been such a quiet one throughout Georgia, and so void of interest, it has almost passed by Unnoticed, and the people are hardly aware tho election is so near at hand. The explanation of this, however, may be found in the fact that the democratic nominees have a clear field, and there is nothing to create even so much as a ripple of excitement or interest; except, per¬ haps, in the fourth district, where a man named Carmichael, of Coweta county, is running as an iridepend* ent candidate, but his race is a sort of lonesome, “forlorn hope” kind ol an affair, and is scarcely known out¬ side of his own county. The snow will cover him out of sight entirely next Tuesday. This is well. A clear and solid democratic dels egation will go up to tho 50th con. gress from Georgia, of whom all Georgians may be proud. Judge John D. Stewart, of Griffin, whom none know but to love and esteem him for his hightoned, Chris¬ tian character, and pure honest heart, is the democratic nominee for this district, and will, of course, be elected. Still, it is the du y of all good democrats to go to the polls and vote for him next Tuesday This much is duo h:m, as the stand¬ ard bearer of the party, not only to make his election sure, but 10 give him the encouragement of your uui ted and hearty support. And this much ho has a right to expect of all democrats. Remember, the election for COh gress lakes place next Tuesday, the 2 d of November, and be sure you go out to the polls and vote for Judge Stewart. The Greatest Country. Wo find in an exchange tho follow¬ ing statistics concerning our country) which will be interesting to our readers: No country on the globe can com pare with the United States. Great Brittain and Ireland have 35,000,000 of inhabitants ; France 37,000,000, Germany 45,000,000, Italy 28,000.- 75^ 000 , Spain 17,000,000, Russia 000 , 000 , the United States 61,000, 000 . The L T nited States have area about as great as the whole of Eu¬ rope. The population of Russia is about 10 , 000,000 times greater th an the United States, but in ajjfew years will fall behind that of our great fr oe republican land. We have not otily as great a variety of climate, but a larger variety of productions. The late Hon. David L. Yulee, who died in New York, Sunday, was the first senator who represents ed the state of Florida in the con gress of the United States. The election of Abram S. Hewitt as mayor by the united democracy of New York City, will not only be a big thing for the part}- and state, but. will have its effect upon the na tiona! demoer • v.

Natoe the Great Teacher VVilmington Collegian. In his new book, “Nature’s Teac-h tngs, the Rev. J. G. Wood lias <1 is** cttssed a subject not before handled , at length. Jtsobject is to show bow man’s implements and mechanical deviees have been anticipated in na lure. He asserts ibattbero is no in vention of man which is not antic; pated, that all of his mechanical de vices have been used in nature for countless centuries. lie eia ms that the great discoverers ot tbo luime will ho those whocarefully study the natural world. The burr stones of mills art a copy of molar teeth. The hoots of a horse are made of parallel plates like a carriage spring. The finest file made by man is a rough affair when compared with a Dutch rush used by cabinet makers. The jaws of the turtle and tortoise are natural scis sors. Rodonts have chisel, and hip¬ popotami have adze tecLh, which are constantly repaired as they are worn. The carpenter’s plane is anticipated by the jaws of a bee. The wood pecker has a powerful little hammer The diving hell only imitates the work of tbo water spider. This insect although as easily drowned as any other, spends a great part of its life under water. Having constftieted a 6 mull coll under the water, it clasps a bubble of air between its last pair of legs and dives down to the entrance of its cell, info which the bubble is put. A proportionate amount of water is thus displaced, and when all of it is expelled, the little animal takes up its abodo in this subaqueous retreat. In laying its eggs on tbe water, the gnat combines them in a mass shaped somewhat like a life boat. It is impossible to sink it without tearing it to pieces. Tbe iron mast of a modern ship is strengthened by Jeep ribs running along in its inter¬ ior. A porcupine quill is strength¬ ened by similar ribs. When engin¬ eers found that hollow beams were stronger than solid ones, they only discovered a principle which was con turies old. A wheat straw if solid could not support tbo heavy head. The bones of heavier anima's, if solid, would have to be a great deal larger to bear the weight which they have to sit 1 p *rt. Tho frame work of a ship resembles theskeloton of a he 1 - ring, and he who would in,prove aerial navna ioii might study tbo frame work of a bird with advantage. Palissy made a careful study of ih shells by 1 he sea side, in order t<> e.rn tbo best method of fortifying a l iwn. Tbe ship worm feeds on wood, arid gradually tunuells its way through any submerged limber. It also lines ns burrow with a hard shelly coaling. Brunei] taking a Hint from this, was the first to succeed i.i sulmquatic tunneling- The Eddy stone light house is built on the plan of a tree trunk, and fastened to tbe rock in a manner somewhat similar tn the manner which a tree is fast¬ ened to the soil, It is suppose*! that the first idea of a suspension bridge was sugg* sled by the creep¬ ers of a tropical forest. Mr. Wood gives an interesting ac¬ count of the origin ol the crystal palace. Mr. Paxton, a gardener, having noticed the structure of the great leaves of the Victoria R ear 1 , a plant which had been introduced into England a few years previous, struck the plan of copying in iron tbe ribs ol the leaf und filling the remaining space, which corresponds t*o the cellular portions of the leaf, with glass. Thus, by copying na Hire, an obscure gardener became Sir Joseph Paxton, tho great archi¬ tect. That was a strong point which Gov. Pattisori, of Pennsylvania, made before the 30,000 listeners at York county fair—that if the coal men conspire lo reduce the output and increase the prices, so could th ■ farmers combine to limit tho acreage ingrain, and thus make their own market figures. And, by the same token, if such coal combinations may ruthlessly crush out any inde¬ pendent operator who rofu-* - to go into their ring, why may not la¬ bor organizations crush ou*, inde¬ pendent workingmen who take their places during strikes? Should not eauoe for the goose be sauce for the gander, also? Tbe great Washington philan¬ thropist, W. W. Corcoran, is aiwa) - s doing good and making others hap¬ py with his immense wealth. lj 0 has just given # 1,000 to the confed¬ erate home in Charleston. lie had already given 85 000 to the genera! relief fund, and had prcviou-ly given 86,000 to the home. So Charleston gels 812,000 from this noble bene factor. You should never begin to read, write or sew, for several m nutes attar coming Iroiu darkness into the light. The Century’s Else of Wages Discussing wages, in one of his lectures before the students ol llar vurd I niverity, Professor Tliump son gives many facts of curious in-' terest. In 1793 the Schuylkill at-d SusquehannaCanal Company adver tised for workmen, offering 85 a month for the winter months, and $6 for summer, with board and iodg | j n g. Tlie next year there was a de , bale in tho house ot representatives which brought out the fact, that the soldiers got but three dollars a month. A Vermont member, dis¬ easing the proposal to mise it to §4, said that in his state men were hired for £18 a tear, or 84 a month with hoard and clothing, Mr. Wads worth of Pennsylvania said : “in tho states north of Pennsylvania, the wages of the common laborer ur <j not upon the whole superior to those of the common soldier.” In 1767 a Rhode Island farmer hired a good hand at 83 a month ; am) §5 a month was paid to those who got employment for the eight busy months of tbe farmer’s year. A strong boy could be had at that time for 81 a month through these months, and he earned it by work¬ ing from day break until 8 or 9 o'clock at night. He couid buy a coarso cotton shirt with the earn¬ ings of three such months. Th-> farmers could pay no better, for the price they got for their produce was wretched. Butter sold at 8 cents a pound, and when it rose suddenly to 10 cents several farmers’ wives and daughters went out ot their minds with excitement. W’urnen picked the wool off the bushes ami Briars, where the sheep had left it, and spun and knit it into mittens to earn 81 a year by ibis toilsome business. They hired out as help for twenty five cents a month and their board. By a hard day's work at the spin¬ ning wheel a wi'inin and giri to¬ gether could earn twelve c, n s. A late as 1821 the best farm hand could be bad lor uvonl\ -five cents a da)’, or twine ns much in mowing lime.

Until this year public faith in sen serpent stories was far Horn being strong and steadfast. The narra¬ tives of those who have claimed to have seen the reptile, and who noi 'infrequently described it so accu¬ rately as to leave little room tor doubt, were received with a great many grain- of allowance, however high the reputation of tbe narrators for truthfulness. To-day there are fewer skeptics, for the run-on main¬ ly that the sea serpent has l e o 8 f'(* { in waters hitherto strangers to it. and by so many persons *■• ho-e des¬ cription of it lallied in all os-entin! respects, as to leave no tangible ground for disbelievers t* »stand upon.
