torials of the last campaign published
by the side of some of their goldbug ar¬
ticles of the present campaign.
Bring them out, Brother Ishmaelite,

short years.
The Chrysanthemum Show,

All who can do so are cordially invit¬
ed to prepare for the exhibit, and help
to make it one of the finest ever seen in
our city.
We regret that we have inadvertently
omitted to mention the matter before,
but trust that everyone will prepare to
take part in the exhibit.

will be given later.
Sure Cure for Hog Cholera.
Mr. M. W. Davis, of Covington, gives
us the following, which he assures us is
a certain and sure remedy for hog chol¬
era, if tire hogs are not too sick or far
gone to eat:
Take common lime and sprinkle it
over tiie hogs, especially about the head,
and put some in their feed troughs,
where they can eat it with their food.
Also, put some of the lime in the water
they drink.
Mr. Davis says his father, Mr. Wilson
L. Davis, has used this remedy for 50
years, and has never lost a single hog
with cholera, if they were able to eat
when lie discovered they had the dis¬
ease.

A Sad Death
We learn of the tragic death of a lit¬
tle girl, in the edge of Walton county,
last week, which is a peculiarly sad one,
and commands the sympathy of every¬
one.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Higginbotham,
of Walton county, had but one daugh¬
ter, a sweet little girl of 8 years.
One dav last week she was playing
about the lot with her little brother and
some other children, when a large gate
post, which was found to be rotten at
the top of the ground, suddenly fell,
striking the little girl on the head, and
causing instant death.
There seems to have been no special
cause for the post’s falling when it did,
and was one of those unaccountable
things that appear to be utterly myste¬
rious.

Letter from Atlanta.
Atlanta, May 16, 1895.
The people of Georgia living outside j
of Atlanta cannot conceive what a huge
exhibition the Cotton States Exposition
is going to be. Almost every state in
the union will have exhibits, and even
foreign countries will make grand dis
plays.
The surviving ex-bonfederato soldiers
expect to draw §60 pensions inidev the
law enacted by the lust legislature, but
as 5-30,000, the amount appropriated lor
them by the general assembly, is iiiade
quale,none of the old confederates can
draw, and it will be for the legislature,
when it convenes, to appropriate the
necessary amount of money to pay the |
old soldiers, w I 10 are greatly in need of j
it, these hard times. It is estimated that |
it will take between $100,000 and $150,- j
000 to pay the disabled class their pen- j
sions under the late law.
It is due the brave old soldiers that
they should be paid fur their defense of
the cause of the south,

Venezuela's Thanks.
lion. L. F. Livingston, our member
of congress, has received the following,
letter from prominent citizens of Vene¬
zuela, thanking him for his effort to in¬
duce England to submit her boundary
troubles to arbitration for settlement.
The letter, as will be seen, was writ¬
ten and mailed on the 6 th of April 1895,
a little over one.month ago, and is sign¬
ed by a large number of leading dUz ns
o f “Soledad, Iiidependencia District, in
the State of Bermudez, Venezuela,” and
was received by Col, Livingston about
two weeks ago.
It was sent to Washington City, the
national capital, and was forwarded to
Kings, Newton county, Git., the home
Lol. Livingston.
The letter is written in Spanish, and
was translated :nto English in Atlanta,
and published in the Constitution, on
Saturday last,
Col. Livingston has toe original at his
home at Kings, in this county,
lHre is the letter as translated:

my. northern sis
“We were well aware that our
ter, that great republic we love and respect so
much, as the advanced guard watching for our
lights constantly threatened by European cov
etousness, would not see indifferently the out
rage inflicted on a sister republic by a Euro
pean nation, odious to the whole world, and
whose rapacity and insatiable avarice are well
known to all.
“By talking before the congress, in such an
eloquent and worthy manner, the vindication
of the rights ol Venezuela against England,
that eternal usurper of territories belonging to
nations less strong than herself, you have been
the faithful interpreter of the noble American
character, and you have taught ambitious
England that the tree, noble and just
| riat i on of the United States is ready to put
into practice for the benefit of her southern
sisters the precepts of that sublime Monroe
doctrine, the hope of all American nations
and the preventive of European overflow.
“Be sure that Venezuela will never forget
you, the noble representative of Georgia, and
the throbs of cur hearts will always be of love
and gratitude for you. The work you have
undertaken is noble and praieaverthy, and just
and noble causes are crowned by God with the
palms of victory.
“May the ‘Guayana’ question be settled by
arbitration, if not, Venezuela will show Eng¬
land that, although weak, she knows how to
handle the rifle, to hold the sword, and that
her sons are ready to die with honor on the
bloody battlefield to protect the national dig¬
nity and the sovereignty of their freedom.
May God keep you safely 1”
