G A WITITEITFAn, Bup’t Gen I’ass Ag’t. Savannah A Bit of Georgia History. Atlanta Journal. “Did you ever know that a gover nor of Georgia was killed in a duel?” asked an official in the executive of fice this morning of a Journal repor ter. A negative reply being given, he went on to state that Button Gwinnett succeeded Archibald Bul lock. in February, 1777. During his administration a delegation from South Carolina tailed upon Gover nor Gwinnett and suggested the ex pediency of having Georgia place herself under the jurisdiction of South Carolina. The suggestion was treated with contempt. Sub sequently an unfbrtii’ate misun derstanding occurred between the governor and General Lachlan Mc- Intosh, which resulted in a duel, fought on the loth of May, 1777, near Savannah, in which both gen tleman were seriously wounded. General Mclntosh recovered, but Governor Gwinnett died ot his in juries twelve days afterwards. These facts are recorded in Wlute’s His torical Collections of Georgia. “A. BOWLD SOGER BOY? ONE OF THE M ACON VOLUNTEERS AND HIS ABILITY AS A DRUMMER. SAMITKI. DUNLAP, OF ATLANTA, GA. The excellent picture we prerent at the head of this column, is of a man who is as well and favorably known in his capacity as a travelling man or “drummer” as anv one mail in the United States. Mr. Dunlap said in conversation recent ly : “about four years ago I had a severe attack of rheumatism, which completely disabled me for a time, and which develop ed into what is commonly called •chronic,' attacking me when least expected, and lav ing me up entirely; incapacitating me for any kind <>f business, and causing me as much suffering in a day as should be crowd ed in a life time. After one of my most severe attacks, and when I had just got able to hobble around. I met J. M. Hunni cutt. an old friend, and lie said he could make a remedy tnat would cure me. and. by gracious, lit did. I took two bottles of his -tuff, prepared from roots and herbs, and I have never had a twingeof rheuma tism since. The medicine was not prepar ed for sale at t int time, but was manufac tured by Mr. Hunnieutt for his friends. About >ix months ago it was determined tc place it upon the market, and a firm was organized for that purpose. Two weeks ago. in the midst of my suffering. I noted in one of their advertisements that it was good for kidney troubles also. I knew it would cure rheumatism, and I bought a half a dozen bottles at once and determin ed to give it a fair show at a kidney dis ease of long standing. It may seem ex travagant. but the first day's use gave me relief and before I had completed taking one bottle mv disagreeable symptoms had entirely disappeared.

MONROE COUNTY, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 8. 1886. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington. D. C., June 2. 1886. Dear A dvertiser two long mooted questions have been at last settled. I mean the question of the president’s marriage and his pur chase ot a tract of land near the capitol for a summer home. By the time this letter reaches you our chief magistrate will have embark ed upon the matrimonial sea. The wedding was officially announced, late on Frida}’ night, to take place on June 2d. the ceremony to be performed in the blue room of the white house, and the president's pastor, Rev. Dr. Sunder.and of the First Presbyterian church, to offi ciate. Only twenty-five persons outside of the immediate families are to be invited. A tier the cere mony a collation will be served in the state dining-room. There will be no bridal tour, as the president and his bride will remain at the white house till after congress ad journs. A short trip may then be taken, and on their return they will occupy the home just purchased by the president. This new home is a fact and no fiction. The tleed was placed on record, and is a finality. The property was purchased in the name of the present marshall of the district, who used to be a real estate agent hero, and in whose judgment the president has great confidence. The marshal afterwards deeded it to Grover Cleveland for 821,000 in round figures. The property con tains twenty-eight acres, and on it is a two-story stone double house. Work will be begun at once to place the house in suitable condition for occupancy by the president. This is the first instance since the infant days of the republic that our chief magistrate has occupied a house owned by himself and furnished at his own expense. It is surmised by some that it is the president’s inten tion to make this his permanent home after he lays down the gavel of authority at the white house. Whether he does or not he can at any time dispose of the property at large advance on what he paid for it. Many prominent men are buy ing suburban property. General Logan was the first one to buy, and within one month after he bought he was offered 810,000 more than he paid for the property. Others followed, among the latest being Secretary Whitney, whose place is adjacent to that just purchas&d by the president. Since the president’s purchase a small tract one mile north of it has been bought by a real estats agent for 815,000. The real purchaser is not yet, known, but it is supposed to be a man prom inent in public affairs. All this property lies close to what is known as Kook creek noted tor its wild and romantic scenery and as the stream on which Fulton worked liis first steamboat in 1807. The valley of this stream forms a natur al and beautiful park, and the com missioners of the district have for a long time been considering means for improving it. Congress will doubt less further the enterprise at some day in the near future. When it is done the president’s purchase will be the most valuable in the district. Affairs are lively at the legislative halls this week. Oleomargarine has caused the oil}* tongues of the mem bers to speed without friction, ex cept that kind which is brought on by conflict of views, and of that kind there has been much. It is the only important question discus sed in the house this session that has not been tainted with party preju dice. The opponents of the Dill did much filibustering the several days that it was under consideration, hut whenever a vote was taken on a proposed amendment it was appar ent that the supporters of the bill had the best of the controversy, and that the bill would finally be car ried by a handsome majority. The shipping hill and the fishery question were also discussed slightly, hut both will come up for further discussion soon. The labor arbitra tion hill and the railroad land for feiture bill took up much of the time of the senate. The amendment to the Chinese restriction act also came in for consideration. Senator Sher man took strong ground against the immigration of Chinese to this coun try. He is keen and far seeing and is trimming tor the support of tlie Pacific Slope in the next presiden tial nominating convention. Usual ly the president of the senate is withdrawn from all debates, and so does not come prominently before the people in congressional pro ceedings. But Senator Sherman is an exception. He is determined not to be shelved in that wav. and so. while enjoying the high honor of being president of the senate, fre quently steps down on to the floor and engages m the discussion of all important questions. By order of the president all the executive departments are closed to-day. and the whole city is at the cemeteries, paytqg homage to the brave dead. On motion of Repre sentative Morrison the house ad journed over from Saturday until Tuesday, and like action was taken in the senate. The cabinet meeting on Thursdav was a prolonged one. and the fisher ies question was the principle ques tion discussed. Ihe course to be pursued has Dot rot been divulged. 11. CONGRESS AND ITS WORK. Philadelphia Times. The probable failure of congress to do anything practical toward cre ating anew navy, improving or re placing our worthless seacoast forti fications or adding to the numbers and effectiveness of an entirely in adequate army is already clearly foreshadowed. Public land. Pacific railway, general bankruptcy and silver legislation arc also impera tively required in the public interest, but so far nothing lias been done on any ot these subjects that should have been done. But each house has been trying to out do the other m voting money out of the treasury for pensions, puutie buildings and river and harbor improvements that won’t improve anything that will be worth the improving. In the facility with which the present congress leaves undone the things it should do and does the thing it ought not to, it is probably neither worse nor better than its predecessors have been for the last score of years. This is pre-eminent ly the era of small men The aver age congressman seems entirely in capable of grasping or comprehend ing any subject that is intended to advance the general welfare. He is, in general, the interested attor ney of a single locality and believes that it is iiis chief duty to secure petty offices for as many of his con stituents as possible and as much money as lie can persuade his fellow congressmen to divide with him to erect public buildings and make alleged river and harbor improve ments in his district. Having done this he feels at liberty to leave his seat and spend as ctyeh time as he sees fit looking a' r his political fences, leaving mat, rs of vital mo ment to the general public to take care of themselves. That there are honorable excep tions to this rule of the reign of in terested littleness in congress is true, but that they are the exceptions that prove the rule no dose observer will be inclined to dispute. The most discouraging feature ot this very bad state ot affairs is that the exceptions tend to grow fewer. The really public-spirited men of first class ability who get into congress now adays are apt to get discoura ged at their uttfr inability to do anything of publii utility and leave public life in div -st. Mr. Hewitt, who has alre .lv 'J\i* , e<igthat the J7\ f>C.. i. ’./i.-LLtV, U*7W‘'?V.. tkwfg I ess and given as his reason for retiring the fact that he can be of no use to the public, owing to the overwhel ming preponderance of selfish little ness in that body, has simply spoken what a good many men of his way of thinking have acted upon without saying anvthing about it before now. This state of affairs, which is pat ent to anybody who gives a mo ment’s earnest consideration to the measures that succeed and those that, are beaten or ignored in con gress, is discouraging enough. The people have only themselves to blame for it, however. They will get such representatives in congress as they really want. There isn’t a congressional district in the United States that does not contain men ot public spirit and good ability who would be glad to serve the public in a congressional capacity. But they don’t want to become office-brokers and log-rolling subsidy-hunters. They don't want to become lying demagogues, promising everybody everything they want,"knowing that they must break nine-tenths of their promises. The voters seem to want the men who are willing to do these things and they get them. They will; keep on getting them Go the end of the chapter, unless they get up on a little higher plane them selves. The legislation will grow worse instead of better, until the voters learn that statesmanship consists in something higher and more im portant than securing patronage and extravagant appropriations. Temper at Home. 1 have peeped into quiet “parlors” where the carpet is clean and not old, and furniture polished and bright; into “rooms” where the chairs are neat and the floor car petiess;into “kitchens” where the family live and the meals are cooked and eaten, and the boys and girls are as blithe as the sparrows in the thatch overhead, and I see that it is not so much wealth and learning nor clothing, nor servants, nor toiß nor idleness, nor town, nor country, nor station, as tone and temper that render homes happy or wretched. And I see, too. that, in town or country, good sense and God’s grace make life what no teachers or ac complishments, or means, or society can make it—the opening stave of an everlasting psalm ; the fair begin ning of an endless existence ; the goodly, modest, well proportioned vestibule to a temple of God’s build ing that shall never decay, wax old, or vanish away.—Ex.

Black to the Chronicle, is to be found the true spirit that should control in select ing men to fill the offices of govern ment. Ignoring personal prefer ment, let the people assert and main tain control of public affairs and put in office men whose administra tion will redown to the general good: Editors Chronicle :—The invita tions with which 1 have been hon ored to address the people on the pending gubernatorial question seem to impose upon me a duty to re spond in some way. I cannot visit the localities to which 1 have been invited, and therefore adopt this method of briefly giving some of my views. It must.be a matter of re gret to all good citizens that the joint discussion between the candi dates who aspire to the high office very soon became so personal that their respective representatives agreed that the unity of the party and the public good required that they should be discontinued. But when we come to think about it, is it strange? Where gentlemen be long to the same party, and agree substantially upon the public ques tions that must be determined during the administration of the office to which they aspire, there is little, if anything to discuss but themselves, and this being so, the effort of eacli is to make his competitor inferior to himself, and hence personal abuse or detraction, and a mere wrangle for office must follow. This must be so until wo curb the disposition to pursue office for the emoluments and honor it brings, and learn that the people have some capacity to select tor themselves their own public ser vants. As long as the people allow it to be understood that no citizen is to be called into office unless lie is willing and able to conduct a long and expensive canvass, in which iiis chief employment is to be praise of himself and detraction and abuse of others, who are engaged as himself, the services of many, very many, worthy and qualified, who would, if properly called, accept public sta tion, must be lost to the state, for they have neither the taste nor ca pacity to pursue such methods. To elevate the tone of our politics, dignify the methods now too com rnonly resorted to, to inculcafelfliesal utary lesson that offices are ndt crea ted to be dispensed as rewards, even for the worthy, but to be con ferred and enjoyed for the public good ; that they bring not only em olument and honor, but impose the most sacred trust and the gravest responsibilities, is far more impor tant than the political preferment of any individual. These high ends so devoutly to be wished for cannot be attained unless they are demand ed and insisted upon by the virtuous and intelligent, whose interest and dut}’ call upon them to assert and maintain thecontrolof public affairs. „—_ How to Make a Happy Home. Mrs. John in Cleveland Plaindealer. Have no secrets from your com panion. AYhat a husband knows a wife should know. Never tell yotir neighbors your troubles. Of course, we must greet one’s friends with a smile when we feel sad at heart. Now husband, show your love tor your wife, if need be. Christ suffer ed for the church. Study to keep her young. It is not work but wor ry that wears. Keep a brave, true heart between her and all harm. Stay at home; habitual absence during evenings is sure to bring on sorrow. If your duty or business calls you, that is all right, but if you go out to mingle with other society and leave your wife at home alone, or with the children, you may be sure there is no good in store for you; home is your only retreat. Take your wife with you in society. She must see other people appear and act. Wife, love your husband ; seek to secure your husband’s happiness ; make your home attractive. This means more than furniture ; it means the thousand little touches ot taste that drive the darkness out of the corners, the stiffness out of the par lor and the gloom out of the house. Make your home so easy that you will feel easy in it yourself. Keep your house clean and in good order ; it takes less time to keep things than to neglect them. Even pover ty is no excuse for dirt. Many a man isdrivenfrom home by dirttothe bar room, and through that to death. Have your table clean ; your food may be but coarse, but if it is clean and put on in an inviting shape, the meal will be relished. Of course, all homes are not happy ones; but if we would do our duty they might be. There is point, and much good sense in the above paragraphs. If home is not happy and pleasant, then is husband ar.d wife adrift upon the sea of trouble. He’ll Not Live to See It. The day when either house of congress passes Senator Saulsbury s bill disqualifying senators and rep resentatives from being candidates for president will be a golden day in American history; but it is safe to assume that Senator Saulsbury j will never see it.— Philadelphia in quirer.
