The Republican National Con

Till CANDIDATES.
Blaine and Arthur are the lead- 1
ing candidates. This is conceded
by all. And between them Ar
thur has the largest following.jbut
they are generally from sta’es that
cannot cast an elec'oiial vote for
the He has, through his
office holders, the bread and but
ter brigade, secured ihe delegation
from almost eve-y Southern State*
but the Represeiratiyes from the
great Republican states that will
elect a Republican, if one is elect
ed, do not intend to permit this
gaug to control the convention.
Blaine is the next mau.& He
comes wiih an enthusiastic follow
ing. as he hns done at the two last
Conventions and his friends go
there to stick. While he will not
be able to ccntrol enough votes at
i the outset to be nominated he can
defeat Arthur. >
The othei prominent candidates
are Senator Edm»n. s of Vermont,
Gen. Logan of Illinois and JohD
Sherman of Ohio. Gen. Graut is
conceded eut of the race now.—
He loomed up a month or two
since into some prominence, but
his financial failure 'in New York
has been a wet blanket to liis aspi
rations
These are the avowed candidates
but there are probably fifty men
of more or less prominence, sit
ting on the anxious bench, hoping
that in the scramble the presiden
tial lightning may hit them.
The probability is that neitbei
of the leading candidates will bt
nominated, although friends
of Blaine c/airn that after the first
ballot, the Logan ana Edmonds
men will come to him anti that
when the tide turns the carptt bag
element from the South, fearing
to loose their places, will hurried
ly fall into line and their favorite
will go in wi.h a storm of entbusi
asm.
In this is Arthur's strength and
his weakness. As long as he is in
the majority he can hold his crowd
square t.o the line because be owns
them, but the minute his star be
gins to wans the bread and butter
brigade will break for the foremost
man. be he Blaine, Logan, Sher
m'tn, Edmonds or old Nick.
Tftking a casual review of toe
field, we will net be at all surpris
ed if a dark horse walks with
the prize, This was the result in
1876, and again in 1880. Hayes
and Garfield owe their nomination
to the bitter feeling between the
real leaders. It is but a repeti
tion of the old fable of the lion
and the bear fighting over the
spoil of the chase until exhausted
and as they lay panting. brer
fox stepped in and bore off the
prize.
Rig Thieves
It is frequently said that if a
man steal a hog he is a criminal
but when he steals a millicrt, he is ;
a good clever man, only a little m.
fortunate. But tbe big swindlers
who jave recently fleeced their
confiding friends in the North are
no l to be let off so easily. Ward
the partner of the Grants is now
in jail, J D Fish, President of ihe
Marine bank is under airest, John

Diet Convention.
As will be seen by a notice pub
lished elsewhere, the Executive
Committee of the 9th dist. will as
semhle in Gainesvijle on the 17tli.
day of Juue, for ‘he purpose of
calling a convention of ihe district
to nominate a Candida e for Con
gress to succeed Hon. A D. Can
dler.
From the information we get
Here will be but little difficulty in
making a nominat’on. As it is
generally conceded that Col Can
dler is eutitted to succeed him
self. We have not heard a word
complaint from any source against
him or his course in Congress, ex
cept from Hainesville, Col Can
dler's home. where there seems to
be some personal opposition to
him, probably from personal reas
ons. with which the party and bis
supporters heretofore have '„notb
ing to do.
The Gainesville Southron has i
devoled a good deal of space for j
six months to abusing Col Candler 1
under all sorts of pretexts, but it;
was hardly to be expected that be j
could do anyth’iig so satisfy the
edifor of the Southron, who gets
bilious evsrv time he remembers
how the one eyed plow boy lam
basted Mr Speer and his crowd.
Candler beat the race two years i
ago when he tad a well organized |
victorious opposition te meet, and
white he was hut little known in ;
half the districts. And we be
lieve he will be nominated by ac- j
clamatioi if the people are prop
erly represented in the convention,
and elected by a largely increased
majority.
Tour Uncle Sammy Tilden
seems to be the coming man in
Democratic circles provided he
will accept- But ‘that seems to
| be an inigma that nobody can un
j ravel. NowisUucle Sammy do
ing a gojdpart by the boys? If
' a man wants an office let him say
so and if he doea not intend to
have it let him thiow up the
sponge.
"We are l>y him somewhat like
the old farmer was by his Maker.
Some body had stolen the old
man’s pet-pig. After searching
until he abandoned all hope, he
went upon his knees and prayed
thusly: “Oh ! Lord, thou know
est who stole my pig. and if you
do not give me some intimation
as to who the thief is, 1 will al
ways feel that you have not done
a good p*rt by me ’’
Mr. Tilden can settle the whole
question in three words. And we
cannot understand why he should
be so ri ticem. In the history of
the government we believe there
has never before been an instance
where a man refused to say whelh
er he would or would not ac
cept an office, when pressed by his
fries Js. We are afraid there is a
“cat i» the meal tub.”
The Congressional race in the
A'lanta district is already warm
and is heating. By the time the
convention meets it will be in a
boiling state. Hammond. Jaek
eor and Mynalt are all live Candi
da' es and alt good men. They
do not allow any grass to grow
under their feet. Day'after day
they ate busily engaged ip manip
ulating ihe voters and struggling
for the nominatijn. We do not
kuow that we ever saw so much
work done before the convention
met as is being done to control the
primaries. All of them seem hope
ful, well, that haidly expresses it
—they are confident. Somebody
is going to be left and badly dis
appointed.
The Constitution came out last
Thursday with a handsome new
dress. It is handsomely printed
and presents s typographical ap
pearance that any paper in the
country might b* proud of. Ths
new building will soon be complet
ed ana with its new . dress, and
handsome house it may look back
on the conflicts of tbe past with
commendable pride.
The financiers say the panic
will help matters, that it will tone
down the rampart spirit of specu
lation that is rife in tbe country.
But what do the unfoi lunate stoc*
holders of the broken banks think
about its helping matters ? They
can t see it in that ligh', unless
they have the happy faculty of
sinking self interest in the pub
lie good.
The failure of Mr. James and
the bursting of the financial bub
bles in New York, does not seam
to have affected the ‘ Atlanta dirt”
market. The sale of suburban
property last week shows that the
enthusiasts still have faith in the
advance of city property.
Representative Turner ofßrooks
has made a fine reputation as
chairman of the committee on elec
tions iu Congress. His speech in
ths Wallace McKenly case was
a tine effort and hi» report was
adopted by a large uisjojity.
Blackburn's Bab)
The followring story is related
by United States Senator J. C. C.
Blackburn :
“Four days before I went to I
the front with my regiment we 1
had a little girl baby. She is now
grown, and you always see her
with me at every social gathering.
Well incur army the furloughs
cam« very rarely. When we got
into line there was no great
chance for a man t<rget borne. It
was about three years afterward
that a few of us were one night
going the down Misissippijon a riv
era 1 earner. I had been siek and’was
returning to my command, but
pretty broken up even then. As
for money, we did not have any
and the) night was hot as I laid
down oa the deck my throat
almost parched with thirst. Pret
ty soon a little girl came along
wi'h a big glass of lemonade. I
tell you it looked good to me.
She saw me eyeing it, stopped a
minute looked doubtfully at me.
and finally cam* up to my side
“You look as if you wanted
something to drink,' she said and
offered me the glass. It wasn't
the square thing to do. but I
took it and handed it back empty
It was like neefar to me Then I
thanked the little creature and
sent her away. Soon a f ter, just
like every child, she r&roe back
leading her mother to see the
poor eoldier. By Jupiter, it was
ca v wife, and the girl was the baby
whom I had last seen as x baby
just born. You can imagine the
reunion. They were with ray
brother's family and happened to
be going down the river. That
was the only time during the
four year's fighting that I saw
my wife and baby, and under
these circumstances what man
would ever forget it?’”
Washington. May 29.—[Spe
cial I—The republicans opposed
to every step the clause in the
general legislative appropriation
bill, which reduced the number of
customs snd internal revenue dis
tricts. They regret the los* of so
many officials of a class which
has been specially active at elec
tions. The bill as passed reduces
the number of customs districts
Irom one hundred and forty-one
to sixty-niue. The redaction is to
go into effeot on the first of Octo
ber. The number of internal rev
enue districts is reduced from
eighty-four to forty-three to go
into effeet the first of July.
The bill also places grain distil
leries of ten gallons daily capaci
ty or less, on the same footing as
fruit distillarie-i, allowing them to
operate without a gauger. Jt is
left in the discretion of the col
lector whether the gaugers shall
be appointed for distilleries above
ten and less than fifty gallon s ca
parity. The fi-e system is abol
ished and salaries established.
; The new plan is considered by
j the democrats a great improve
ment on the old. It reduces the
number of offic als whose employ
ment has been chitlly for politi
cal purposes, and guaranie«s a
more economical, honest aid de
! cent enforcement of the internal
i revenue law.

and the disposition of a large

A spirit medium has just inter

At 2 p. m., on the 14th of May*
we boarded the train for Crawford

We lioar.ied the Mississippi
