DARIEN TIM BEiUIAZETTE KICH’D. IV. CHUBB, - Editor. ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION, - - $2.5(1 DAKIKX,OA., JANUARY 30, I**o. EDITORIAL BREVITIES. The South will not be solid anymore. 'There is a genuine Grant boom in Flor ida. Louisiana's sugar crop will be 185,0<X hogshead. Pennsylvania is going back on Grant. Blaine will get the delegation. The indications are that the Florida State Fair will be the best ever held. Two newspaper men fought a duel near New (Menus on Tuesday, but nob vdy w; s hurt. Hor, Hugh J. Jewett, of New York, is the latest Democratic candidate for Pres ident. Ex-Senator Spencer, of Alabama, recent ly cleared $500,000 by the sale of a Utah silver mine. Hon. Randall Gibson has been elected United States Senator from Louisiana, to succeed Kellogg. Guano shipments through Charlotte are so large that it is next to impossible to got the cars to transfer it. There are about thirteen Republican members of the Louisiana Legislature. The Democratic members number 121. White labor can be had in sufficient quantity to supply the place of negroes who have gone to Kansas from New lberi.f parish, Louisiana. The San Francisco merchant remarks that "if California leather is goo 1 enough to export to Connecticut,it is good enough to make boots of at home.” The two hundred citizens of Bangor, Me., who serenaded Blaine the other night gave three cheers for "J. G. Blaine, the next President of the United States.” lion. E. B. Washburne is a candidate for tile Republican nomination for Gover nor in Illiuoie. He thinks the Gr.berna t rial track io the one most sure to lead to the White House. It is said that a Democratic member of tho Ohio Legislature refuses to serve on the library committee because the chair man of the committee is Mr. Williams,the colored member from Cincinnati. Michigan is financially the solidest state in the Union. Her debt is only $904,000. Her elegant new stato capitol is finished and paid for, costing, strange as it may appear, $15,000 less than was appropriated for it. Mr. Conkling has his people well in hand. A canvass of the Republican mem bers of the New York Legislature gives this result: Grant, 40; Grant or Blaine, 5; Blaine or Sherman, 1; Sherman, 2; Conk ling, 4; Garfield, 1; Washburne, 1; non committal, ‘2O. Virginia Domocrats who have been prone to snub Senator-elect Mahone are beginning to fear that he will act with the Republicans when ho gets into the Senate, and by uniting the Democratic re-adj as ters and Republicans, make the Old Do minion an anti-Democratic state. When tlio Governor of Mississippi stated in Lia annual message tLut justice was ef ficiently administered and crime punished in that state, the Yiokburg Herald (Dom.), at once remarked: "Wo ure afraid ho is u little off in this statement. Tho state has sufl'erod grievosly in killers, shooters, cut ters, staffers and choators, and as a rule thoy have boon punished by turning them loose to engage in cussedness again.” There appears to be a decided difference of opinion among New York journals in regard to Senator Uoukling’s relation to the third term boom. One paper goes so far as to say that General Grant has lost all confidence in Now York’s favorite sou, and that the latter is organizing to flank the third term movement. Another inti mates that the onlj* thing Conkling now cares for in this life is to see Gen. Grant President again. John G. Thompson, who is again at the helm of the Ohio Democracy, in the sti vice of Thurman, announces that the Democratic State Convention will not be held until after the National Conven tion. This gives Thompson’s com mittee the privilege of naming four dele gateß-at-large to the National Convention; but it ishuts the party off from making a declaration of principles, and hence the incontinent growl from the buck-eye wing •of the Democracy. The Philadelphia Times, independent, "regards Senator Maine as the most do serving of the Republican statesmen, and as likely to make the best Pres.dent; but it would not favor Mr. Blaine's election on a sectional issue. It regards Senator Bay ard as the embodiment of the best purpo ses of the Democracy, and as best fitted for the high trust of any of his party com petitors; but it would not support him if the party presented itself in the semi-rev olutionary attitude assumed by the party majority during the extra session.” Janies D. Westcctt, formerly Uuittd Statts Senator from Florida, died at Mon treal on Monday. He was born at Alexan dria, Ya., in 1802; practiced law in New Jersey, and was appointed by President Jackson Secretary of the territory of Flor ila. He became a member of the Terri torial Legislature and of the convention which formed the Constitution of the state and on the admission of Florida into the Union, in 1845, he was elected to the Uni ted States Senate. He removed to Canada at the outbreak of the rebellion and has : 'b e> r since. Hi 1 :•is a . ont of ine • j#*vf Ju i.teeof Florida. Congress is now investigating the exo dus movement. The committee has bo< n at work but a little over week still we can predict the result of their investigations. After summing up all the testimony the committee will make two reports, a major ity and minority report. The. Democratic members of the committee will swear by all that is good that the negroes were per suaded against their will and for political purposes, to leave the South, while the Radical members will swear equally as hard that the negroes wore shamefully abused, ill-treated and murdered, hence the exodus movement. Now, which of these reports will be believed? Why the Democrats will believe their side and the Radicals theirs, and right there the matter will end. What a farce, what a humbug, this investigation business in. It now seems that General Grant is not so popular in Ohio as he "use to was.” Mr. Frod liassaurek, editor of the Cincin nati Yolksblatt and one of the leading German:) of Ohio, was in Washington the other day and was fnterviewed. He says emphatically that the German vot: of Ohio will go against Grant in case he is nomi nated, and that this will make Ohio a doubtful State. All the leading German dailies in the country are against Grant, not as a man, but on the principle of a third-term. Furthermore, he says that Ohio cun be carried for Bayard if be is the Democratic nominee. Somebody in the Seventh Georgia Dis trict has already nominated lion. William 11. Dabney for Congress to succeed lion. William 11. Felton. Colonel Dabney is a good man but Dr. Felton who, by the way is one of the very best men in Congress, will defeat him by a larger majority than ho did in 187(5. Felton pays strict atten tion to his duties while in Washington and that is the main reason why the peo ple like him so well; and there is another good thing about him, he fulfills all his promises and never goes back on a friend. No wonder the people stick to such a man. General Joshua L. Chamberlain, tho man who prevented blood-shed in Maine during the recent political excitement, is now being talked of as the successor of old Hannibal Hamlin in the United States Senate. General Chamberlain has served several terms as Governor of Maine, and will be recollected by many as the Union General why made a conciliatory speech in Maine during the last Fourth of July celebration in that State. He is a conser vative Republican and would make a good Senator. We have been reliably informed that one of the most prominent men in this section of Georgia, will oppose the regular nomi nee of the Democratic party in the next Congressional race in the First District, and lively times may he expected. The people of the South aro getting sick and tired of “professional” politicians and many of them had better prepare them selves to be left out in the cold next No vember. The new Senator from Louisiana, Gen. Randall Gibson, is now a member of Con gress and is considered one of tiie ablest and most conservative members of that body. He was elected to the forty-third congress, but was denied admission. Be ginning with the forty-fourth congress he has served continually in the house. Gen. Gibson’s term commences on the fourth of March, 1883. Whenever the country is able to beat into the head of the average Southern Congressmen the fact that the war is over, why then and not until then, can we ex pect the Radical politicians to cease how l ing against the South. Our people should see to it in future that conservative men, and not bourbons and politicians, are sent to Congress from the South. The Democrats have not made any very huge blunders within the last twenty-four hours, but there is no telling what will happen before the week is out. It should be borne in mind that in every case the Democrats do not represent the people. They only represent themselves and the professional politicians. Samuel J. Tiiden is entitled to the Dem ocratic nomination for President whether he gets it or not. The people should see to it that Congressmen are not sent as del egates to the convention. Men directly from the people should be sent as dele gates. _____________ Genenil Grant expresses himself very much pleased with his Florida trip and says that he intends to spend his winters in the “Land of Flowers.” The ex-Presi dent seems to be perfectly infatuated with the South. Well, who wouldn’t be? General Beuj. F. Butler, Massachusetts standing candidate for Governor, will, in all probability, be the Greenback-Labor- Kearney candidate for President. The approaching Presidential contest is going to be lively, and don’t you forget it. The people of the United States ought to lease the De mocratic party to Samuel J. Tiiden or some oth<r good Democrat, for a term of ninety-nine years. We believe in this lease business and w e hope that Mr fc Tiiden will make an offer for it. A young man in South Carolina, an editor by the name of Preston D. Mood, committed suicide the either day because his girl would not marry him. What a pitty, when they are so many pretty girls in the country. General Walker, the Superintendent of the Census, is having a real hard time in trying to appoint his Sup. r eisers to suit i.r re -h We wish Gen ral Walk, rwcll Georg.’:) Adairs. Gen rul Gordon and Dr. Felton are still quarrelling. Who will be the next Governor of this commonwealth ? Governor Bishop, of Ohio, was in Bruns wick a few days since. Macon wants the Stato Fair again. Ob, give to Augusta this time. The Augusta Chronicle defends General Gordon from recent attacks. The next Governor of Georgia will not be elected by 80,090 majority. We are glad to know that Savannah is about to recover her boom again. The Georgia Press Convention will con ven • in Cuthbertthe first week in May. Hon. Thomas M. Norwood, of Savannah, would make a most excellent Governor for this State. About seventeen lawyers in this district want to go to Congress. Do give the law yers a chance. All the maimed ex-confederates are not yet supplied with limbs. The list has al ready run over 1,000. Two colored men fought a duel near Sa vanna!) a few days ago, and both were pretty badly wounded. Augusta lias been contributing liberally to the Irish relief fund. Several other cities are doing likewise. Sweet William Arp says that Atlanta has lost her boom and that Henry Grady has gone out West in search of it. II- nry Grady ought to be mad ■ Piv i d ut of some big railroad combination. He understands the business. Savannah will soon have a tight-rope performance. Johnson is the colored fel low s name. He killed a sailor. Sunday’s issue of the Atlanta Constitu tion now reaches this office oil Monday mornings, much to our gratification. A colored man has sued Rockdale coun ty for 81 ‘2,000 damages, occasioned by his falling through a bridge, last August. The Catholics of Brunswick are going to build a n-cw brick church in that city before the winter is over. We wish them SUCCOHS. Messrs. S. R. and J. D. Weston have re tired from the Albany News. Messrs. Frank Evans and Lott Warren will run the paper. X. I. E. comes to the surface again with another very rich sketch which appeared in the Atlanta Constitution of Sunday morning last. The Central Georgia Weekly speaking of the next Governorship says that Macon has a Hard(o)man to bent. Col. J. Alf., is right about that. Congressman Felton has explained his position in regard to the Simmons ap pointment. We are satisfied with the doctor’s explanation. What has become of General R. Toombs? Is he still for General Grant, and has he abandoned the idea of stabbing the Union to death ? We hope so. Atlanta will give General Grant a huge reception when he passes through that city ou his way lroin Mexico. The Gen eral already has a boom in Atlanta. Colonel Randall is gathering up all the latest Washington news and forwarding it to the Augusta Chronicle. He knocks the spots out of all other correspondents at the National capital. Blodgett has returned to his duties at St. Mary’s, after illustrating very conclus ively that he wasn’t as oig a man as he thought lp3 was. Tom is a young man and has a heap to learn. During the year 1873 there were eighty six failures in Georgia, with liabilities ag gregating $574,323, against one hundred a id nineteen failures in 1878, with liabili ties amounting to $3,738,134. . Serious objections have been raised to the appointment of Parson Simmons as the Supervisor of the Atlanta District. Gordon opposes him, no doubt, because he does not live in a large city. Captain Stephen R. Weston, the esteem ed Treasurer of the Georgia Press Associa tion, has retired from journalism. We regret this exceedingly, for we shall miss our good friend at the press meetings. Dr. Tucker, the able editor of the Chris tian Index, of Atlanta, suggests that edi tors as a class should be prayed for regu larly by ministers of the gospel and all good people. We thoroughly agree with the doctor. The Quitman Reporter thinks that Col. Bill Harris, of Worth county, will be the next Congressman from the second dis trict. It would’nt surprise ns at all,as the Colonel manages to scoop in all the offices around him. Ex-Governor Benjamin Conley has been re-appointed Postmaster of Atlanta. What has become of the gay and festive Blod ge.t.the young m n who has’more friends than anybody else? lias he lost his grip on the Sherman boom ? Captain F. G. Mallory, the vetran and gentlemanly commander of the steamer “City of Savannah,” which recently had a collision in New York harbor, bas been re lieved of command, much to the regret of his hundred of friends. Capt. Thomas M. Fleetwood has been appointed in Capt. Mallory’s place. The Atlanta Phonograph says: “The last article of any val ue belonging to Mrs. Ed. Cox, was raffled the other.day by Mr. Win. Tanner, and was won by Mr. Kenney, who sent it back to her. Mr. Tanner found her on the train going to her home at Decatur, and when he hand ed it to her she burst into a flood of tears. It was her wedding ring, and of course The Atlanta Constitution, of Tuesday, says; ‘ A lew .days ago, Judge Login E. Bleckley, of the .Supreme bench, sent his resignation to Governor Colquitt. The Govemof v. as loth to accept it, buU as it was made unconditional, he was forced to do so. He appointed on yesterday Judge Martin J. Crawford, of Columbus, to till the vacancy. A capital selection. To fill the vacancy made in the* Muscogee circuit by the elevationjof Judge Craw ford to the supreme bench, Mr. Edgar M. Butt, of Marion county, was .appointed. Another good selection.” General John Z. George, for a longtime chairman of the Mississippi Democratic State Committee, but now Chief Justice of that .State, has been elected United States Senator in place of Blanche K. Brace. General George is spoken of in the highest terms as being one of the most conserva tive men in the South. Wo are gratified to know that Chalmers, Barksdale, and the rest of the bonrltonsj were left far be hind in the race. Wo are glad to see that the people are coming to their senses and are sending good men to Congress. Our esteemed young friend, John G. .Reardon, Esq., who is, by the way, one of the brightest young lawyers in the South, lias connected himself with the Ocala (Fla.) Banner. That paper is now man aged by a strong team in the persons of John G. Reardon and Frank E. Harris, and we sincerely hope that they will make a success of it. Our heart is with you, boys, and “may you live long and pros per,” say we. Affairs in Maine continue bad, and it would really be a good idea for a few Southern bourbons to imigrate to that fac tious State. Their moderate idc as about such affairs would have a soothing effect on the passions and prejudices of New England chivalry. : ;• w_A dvertis ements. New Stare! New Stare! New Stare! H. -A..
