C. W. HANCOCK, X s UEBICVa, GEORGIA. ^ Friday Homing, Seeembc 3rd. 1830. \ The leaders of the New York Democ racy have formally read John Kelly oat • of the party, and withdrawn'from fol io lowship with him. \ Daring the last two years we have received $200,000,000 from Enrope and dng as mnch more from the ground. The Comptroller of the Currency shows that we now have 1612,284,357 in coin and $688,744,467 in paper in circula tion or in the Treasury. The net profit on every bale of cotton manufactured in the South is $7 per bale. When 4,000,000 bales of cotton ate manufactured in the Southern States they will contain a population of 40,000,000 people, wielding a power through their wealth second to no country on the globe. The presidential electors will meet at their respective State capitals and cast their votes for President and Vice President on the first Wednesday in December. Congress h directed by law to open and count these votes on the second Wednesday in February, and to declare the result. A Denver dispatch says that there had been some trouble about a min Itobinson’s Camp, Colorado, and Saturday night Lieutenant Governor- elect Itobinson, while visiting the with the manager, was fired on by the watch, and it is thought, was fatally wounded. The watch claims that the shooting was accidental, bnt his story is not believed. The Columbus Enquirer-Sun calls tlie attention of parents and policemen to a very dangerous toy pistol that is being sold in that city. It is made of cast iron, is breach-loading and only sells for 25 cents, and if it is bnt half S9 dangerous as represented, every little urchin will have one during the holli- days, and it is going to do some serious mischief, as 6ure as gun. The report of the commissioner of I>en8ions shows that the government paid out last year for pensions, the of $57,026,994; and yet Congress refuses to grant a moderate allowance few remaining veterans of the Mexican war. During the past twenty years there has been paid out for pensions $455,- 718,505, but not a cent to the mer whose valor won for ns California and an empire on the Rio Grande. Pennsylvania has a law, old and al most forgotten, providing that stake holders of elected bets can be proceeded against by poor boards for the amount put in their hands. The poor board of Scranton has served notices on several prominent citizens, restraining them from paying out any money deposited in their hands by betters. The pro ceedings has occasioned a great sensa tion. Gentlemen who have won these bets arc naturally disinclined to have the money turned into the poor fund. The ArrnonuATiojM.--'The total esti mate of appropriations for all branches of the public service are as follows: Congress, $5,531,799 67; Executive proper, $98,064; Department of State, $1 ,420,475; Treasury Department, $162,090,878 24j War Department, $44,147,055 54; Navy Department, $16,124,172 06; Interior Department, $60,186,787 87; PostOffice Department, $4,364,549 90; Depart of Agriculture, $342,720; Department of Justice, $3,896,220; grand total, $298,202,- Th* Negroes in Kansas. The Savannah Xews says the bitter fruits of the exodus have not all bean iped. Terrible as were the sufferings of the negroes in Kansas, Indiana, and other Northern States last winter, there sad prospect of greater privation before these wretched victims of politi cal tricksters. An agent, sent'East by Governor St. John, of Kansas, to solicit relief for these unfortunates, stated before a meet ing in New York the other day that 'the condition of the colored people in Kansas this winter wiil be even worse than it was in 1879, when men, women and children died of starvation, and whole families slept in the open air. There are now fifty thousand negroes Kansas—five times as many as last year.” Similar reports come from other sources in Kansas, and the blacks Indiana are not more happily situated. Only a small proportion of these grants are able to earn a living. Many of them are too old, too young, or too feeble to work. They have been im posed upon by false representations, and have left comfortable homes to find only cold, hunger and general wretched- i, among a people who have for them except on election day, and who do not want their women and children at any time. What Constitutes a Dealer- Instruc tions from Judge Erskine. The following from the Savannah Xetct will be of interest to many of our local readers: Yesterday morning, in his charge to the Grand Jury in the United States Court, His Honor Judge John Erskine stated substantially that the rule of the court is that to make a person a dealer in liquor or tobacco, it must be shown that he sold a glass of liquor or a piece of tobacco, moie than once. In other words, that the selling of one glass of liquor or a single plug of tobacco, does not make a man out carrying on the business of a retail dealer in either of these articles unless he does so repeat edly. The information was given with a view to prevent the finding of indict ments against parties who may be arrest ed on the most trivial charges, often times based upon the simple selling of a glass of liquor or a piece of tobacco Col. J. H. Estill, A. D. C. The Atlanta Post-Appeal says “We doubt if there is a person in Geor gia who will not endorse the appoint ment of Capt. J. H. Estill, of the Sa vannah Morning News, as Aid-de- camp to the Governor with the rank of Colonel. For nearly ten j ears Colonel Estill has been President of the Geor gia Press Association, and this year is also President of the Southern Press Association. From the position of rol ler boy in a printing office he has riser to the proprietorship of the largest and most snccessfnl newspaper in the South. In him the country press has always had a firm friend, and one whom they have never failed to honor when oppor tunity offered. His appointment to the Governor’s staff, however, newspaper courtesy, bnt an acknowl edgment of his eminent fitness for the place. During the war Col. Estill was gallant Confederate soldier, and after the surrender was commander of the Johnston Light Infantry, of Savannah. He will make an excellent staff officer, and reflect credit upon the newspaper profession in that, as in all other posi- It is given out that onions ai unfailing cure for diphtheria. They must be placed in a bandage, in their raw state, and then beaten into a pulp, and the cloth containing them, juice and all, bound about the throat and well up over the ears. Renewals must be made as often as they begin to get dry. In cases noticed the result has been almost magical, deadly pain yielding in a short time to sleepy comfort. We trust the remedy, which is quite simple, may have a wide enongh trial to tully its usefulness. CERESAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA- senate. Ac.taxta, Ga., November 27. The Senate met pursuant to adjourn ment. Prayer by the chaplain. The journal read and approved. The unfinished business, being the resolution to adjourn on the 4th of December, was taken up. The chair had decided that a two-tnirds vote was necessary, and from this decision an appeal was made. The appeal was sustained, which overruled the decision of the chair, and the resolution to ad journ on the 4th of December was adopted. Mr. Winn gave notice that he would move to reconsider Monday morning. The following new bills were intro- Mr. Bntt—A bill to require the regis tration of voters.

Adopted. A message from the Senate was re ceived announcing the passage of several The question then recurred on the original propqsition, which is to adjourn on Saturday*week till the first Wednes day in July, 1881. The yeas and nays were called* and resulted in 80 yeas and 44 nays.- So the resolution to adjourn as above was lopted. Mr. Martin, of Talbot, made the point of order that it required-a two-, thirds vote to pass the resolution, and asked the chair to rule on the question. The chair said the chair would be glad hear from any member on the point. > one spoke and the chair Tuled the point not well taken. Mr. Gray, of Catoosa, gave notice of motion to reconsider. Mr. Twiggs, of Richmond, moved to transmit the resolution to the Senate. Mr. Gray made the point that it re quired a two-thirds voto to do this. The vote was put, a division demanded and the vote stood 85 to 35. A motion to adjourn till ten a. Monday next was carried after so hard fighting. The House then adjourned until ten a. «., ou Monday next. Atlanta, November 29.—The Sen ate met at ten o’clock and was called to order by the President. Prayer by Dr. David Willis. The roll was called and the journal was read and approved. Mr. Hacket moved to reconsider tho resolution to take a recess from Decem ber 4, 1880, to July 1,1881. The motion prevailed and the resolu tion received from the House to take t recess from December 4, 1880, till the first Wednesday in July, 1881, wasta- For this Mr. McDaniel now offered this substitute: Whbkzas, The importUnt duty railroad, penitentiary, interests of the State, and other publie interests hare not had time *>r the proper discharge of their duties; and hereas, the publie business cannot be fin ished without prolonging the present session * id whereas, many mem- their necessary absence; and whereas, it ii •* duty of the General Assembly at its t lion after each census by the United Sti school teachers.

This far the failures of tl»e present year amount to only $45,- 000,000. During the same period last year they reached $81,000,000, and the year before they aggregated the disas trous figure of $187,000,000. Present appearances indicate that when the ord is made up for 1880 complete, the failures will be found to be relatively smaller than at any time for the last fifteen years. The government disposed ef nearly three times as many acres in the last fiscal year as in the previous year; but out of nearly fifteen million acres it got cash for only eight hundred and fifty thousand acres. The homestead and timber culture entires took up most o s the balance. The railroads gobbled up something over a million acres. The revenue of the year on account of the s ale of lands was $2,290,164. Even this sum divided among the States for school purposes, on the basis of illiter acy, would prove a great blessing to many a child. The European powers are groaning again under the terrible harden of their great standing armies and the rumor is revived that a movement is on foot looking to a general disarmament. Ger many is especially anxious to get rid of the burden, and Bismarck is said to be determined to do so, even if he has to compel his neighbors to join him disarming. It is not probable that be will have to do that, for his neighbors are almost as much hardened as him- aelfandare more than willing to get rid of the burden, the weight of which taay be imagined from the fact that the fiva great continental nations are sup porting over two and a half millions of troops in barracks in time of peace, end are keeping five millions more in condi tion for immediate use in cam of war. The gnlf stream does not come from the gulf. Daring a discussion in the National Academy, of Science in New York Friday the interesting fact was developed that the gulf stream, so call ed, does not come from the gnlf, as is represented in the physical geographies but is an equitorial current which comes through the Caribbean sea from the African coast, is turned northeast upon striking the coast of Yucatan, passes throngh the Straits of Yucatan and Florida, and ont into the Atlantic without really entering the Gulf of Mexico at all. The currents in Gnlf are not connected with this great stream, and are very slow. We want to endorse the following from the Griffin Xews: Colonel Emmett Wommack, of Cov ington, our new solicitor general, is a lawyer of fine talent, and a gentleman of most excellent character. He is thoroughly educated, both in literature and law, and has made quite a reputa tion at the bar. Mr. Wommack will be able to carry the side of the State against any opposion that msy be brought against him and will give per fect satisfaction to the circuit. His honesty and integrity of purpose clearly marked in all his acts. Such officer needs but to be known to be ap preciated. Rochester Herald: A. H. Stephens has arrived in Washington. We be lieve he still weighs, physically, where in the vicinity of 98 pounds, though intellectually and politically he weighs several tons. As a light weight Mr. Stephens will not be alone ii next Congress, Kince Gen. Mahone, of Virginia, is a diminutive person, with what the ladies would cal! a love of foot, but a big head and a very activ brain. Mahone is by no means an it valid. In the matter of health he has the advantages of the Georgia Repre sentative. Mr. Vanderbilt most emphatically denies that he is in any way interested in a scheme to take possession ol the Northern Pacific and other railroad routes against the formidable monopo ly of Jay Gould’s consolidation. As the scheme would require about $75,- 000,000, Mr. Vanderbilt prelers to in vest his money in United States four per cents, where there is absolute tainty of a reasonable amount of gain.
