’Murat to-flie surprise of the outside
world Chicago' I* effectively at work
suppressing the gambling hells.
The rumor comes from the Soudan
that El Mahdt hat died of amall pox.
If this be true disease ha* done for
England what her army was unable
to do. t
SuCKf.TAttr Mannixo think* the tar
iff very uneven, but representative
Morrison 1* still of the opinion that
he should be allowed to strike It a
horizontal blow.
Incomw.v.tb returns on Wednesday
showed 1752 new ease* of cholera and
S5 death* in Spain. It I* generally
thought this dread disease will make
its way to America before many
nienlh*.
ItW argued that the prohibition
bill Is unconstitutional. What could
be more in harmony with the genius
of our free government than to sub
mit questions of this kind to the
people and by the people, and what
they decree by a free ballot i law.
TJy the ballot they make and unmake
even constitutions.
Tiik house passed the general local
option bill last Saturday by an over
whelming majority—lll against 22.
The. bill was the order of the day for
the senate yesterday and In ail proba
bility passed that body. ■Prohibition
is sweeping over Georgia with an ir
resistabto force, and under till* law
nearly overy county in this state will
doubtless speedily vole out liquor.
Tug opinion is prevalent in thl*
part of the world that war between
England and Russia over the Afghan
question will be averted only os long
as F.ngtand continue* to oat crow.
The new English cabinet seems to
have as great a relish for it as did
the Gladstone cabinet, notwithstand
ing tho warliko altitude of the op
position before It got into power.
Although rumor* of war between
Russia and England have again died
out it U not at all improhahlo that
they will soon bo renewed again.
Russia want* Zutflkar pas* and mean
to have it if she can get it. Bho ha
no claim to it, hul that fact doe* not
eecm to he a bar to Russia trying to
get what she covets. Some time ago
Russia abandoned all thought
l of Zulflkar pas* on condition
that she should hare Pendjah. She
got the latter place and .is now its—
triguiug for tho former. 11 may he,
however, that she will not risk a war
with England at thl* timo in order to
f?ot it. _ . .
Probably the most Important blit
before the legislature la the one now
ponding; the Local Option Bill.
An organized resistance Is being
made to Its passage. The liquor
dettlrea have entered Into a “protec
tive association." As an eniment di
vine has said : This ‘protective asso
ciation’ does not propose to “protect"
the 300,000 funiillcs nor 4(X\000 wo
men, nor the 600.000 children, nor
the 000,000 tax-payers of Georgia,
but whom? Why 1,500 liquor deal
ers. If tliia 1,500 got the protection
they sook, every man, woman and
child must be placed in peril; every
financial Interest and soelal pleasure
and moral virtue, must be put in jeo
pardy. The “protection they ask for
is to give them the privilege to try to
nvike drunkards ol all men,bankrupts
of all our citizens, weeping Rachels of
at! our mothers, and vagabonds and
waits of all children.
Tttr. house has before it a hill ap
propriatingftio.OOOto establish a schorl
of technology at the most available
point In the stato. This question to
bo decided by a commission. The
Georgia legislature will agreeably
surprise us if it passes the bill to on
reurage tlio training of the young in
Industrial and mechanical arts when
the last man of them lias been brought
up with the idea that It was cheaper
to buy the products of Northern man
ufactories that it was to encourage in
dustries at the South. But the far
sighted and industrious citizens of
Georgia who do not fool away their
time engineering for a sest in tl e
legislature, plainly see the great ad
vantage oi revolutionizing the Geor
gia idea on this subject. Skilled
labor is about the greatest need of the
statu just at tLls time; and no fortuno
that could be given a young man
would prove half so beneficial ns r
thorough training in a good school
ot ioachuelogy.
ISIMK.HATIOX.
The theory of some northern wri
ters fikat Immigration does not tend
toutlpvord on account of the presence
of jltf:black Face and the existence of
lawlAness, Is completely answered
pv a reference to Texas. In Texas the
blaclii are numerous, and most of the
alleged lawlessness of the south is
popularly ascribed to that locality.
Yet In this state there Is already a
colony of New Englanders. Ihe
census of 1880 showed the presence of
709 persons born In Connecticut, 179
from Rhode Island, 1,523 from Massa
chusetts, 549, from Vermont, 318
frem New Hampshire and 830 fiont
Maine—more than 4.000 New Eng
landers in all—and the number has
materially increased during the last
live years. Only the other day an
agent purchased a large tract of land
In Dallas county for a colony of 250
Connecticut families, who will take
posession In the fall. This settles it
that Immigrants will not stay away
from a state that has negroes In It,
simply on that account, nor will re
ports of an occasional violation of
law frighten them oft. They go to well
advertised regions. Advertising and
immigration agents populated tho
great northwest, and tho same meth
ods are filling tip Texas and Florida.
Texas Is a big state. It is as large us
New Hampshire, Vermont, Massa
chusetts, Rhode Island, Connoctioul,
New York, NowJersev, Pennsylvania,
Delaware,Maryland, Ohio and India
na all combined. Such a vast territory
must hayo a variety of climate and
produces annually as muct cotton as
the entire country produced in 1840.
It has a liberally endowed school
system, and many other good points.
\ All tliese attraction* have been kept
before the world in hooks, pamphlets,
newspapers, circulars, etc., and of
course immigrants go there. The
same energy and judgment in adver
tisement would draw people to Alas
ka or anywhere else.—Atlanta

THE SARA SOTA ASS ASI NATION ON
SOCIETY.
The Sara Sota assassins have been
tried, and fouref them found guilty.
Our dispatch yesterday announced the
viction of three of them at Pine I-evcl
The other one was convicted several
weeks ago. The one that was first
convicted was charged with tho mur
der of a man named Abbe, tho Post
master at bars Sota. The throo who
were convicted last week were charge
with the murder of Harrison T. Riley
in May, 1884.
The wholo country was startled
when the story was published,several
months ago, that there was an organ
ized band of assassins Manatee coun
ty, Fla., and that they had a lodge
room, were bound bv oaths, and had
a regular systems of signs and pass
words. Indeed, there were many who
were inclined to think lhat tho story
had no foundation. There was little
room for doubt, however, when the
books of the organization wore dis
covered, and member* of tho band
were scared Into confessing that other
persons besides those who had been
killed were marked for assassina
tion.
The citizens went to work vigorous
ly to arrest the leaders of the organ
ization and they succeeded, it is be
lieved, in arresting nearly all of them.
The stato officer* took hold of the
matter with a determination to se
cure the punishment of the guilty
parties, and they succeeded belter
even than they had reason to expect.
They got evidence without much
trouble that mdo it impossible for
the guilty parlies to escape.
It seems strange that the idea of
organizing an assassination society In
a civilized community should liavo
suggested itself to anyone, and stran
ger still that the society should nave
existed as long as H did without be*
ing discovered.
Tho convicted assassins will doubt
less be made to pay the penalty of
their crimes on the gallows. The citi
zens of Manatee oounty, who have
shown so much earnestness in bring
ing them to justice, can be depended
upon to see that no avenue of escape
is left open to them .—Savannah

Tuesday was the hottest for sever
al years in the Northern cities. Tho
hot wave extended all over Illinois,
town, Wisconsin and Nebraska. At
Dos Moines at 2 o’clock the mereuiy
showed 92. In New York 89, Wash
ington 03, Baltimore 00, and at sev
eral points in that city at 2 o’clock it
was 101 and the death rate was large
ly increased. At Richmond between
12 and 3 o’clock it showed in several
places 100 to 104. At Philadelphia it
went to 08 and there was no present
prospect for a change. Cincinnati

SA JOSE S ICCCESS.
A correspondent of the Nashville
American writing from Murfrecabor
ough, Tcnm, nnder date of the I6th
says: No ordinary Georgia scrub
couldcorne toTennesseeand take pos
session as] Brother Jones has done.
He is either the greatest revivalist of
the United Stales to-day or Tennes
seeans are the most consummate asses
living. So, indeed, Texans, Mississ
ippians and others, for he has aroused
the same excitement everywhere. Col.
K. P. Dillard, of this city, pronounces
him the great pulpit commoner, as
Pitt, Clay and Johnson were the great
commoners .of the political world.
Plok out from the list of the converts
lhe names of the few “hardened sin
ners,” at the head of this letter. They
are men of brain courage and convic
tion ; men whom no ordinary breeze
could move from any position. Read
his sermons. Are they not, for the
most part full of plain, practical sense
and theological orthodoxy ? II the
Christian's Bible is the foundation of
hope, who could bettor testify lo the
common people (or to the uncommon
people, cither.) his faith id the divin
ity of the written wood than when he
says:
“1 believe the whale swallowed Jo
nah ; believe it literally. I only do not
believe that Jonah swallowed the
whalo simply because the Bible docs
not say so,"
To the sinner who hesitates who
walls for his “feelings" la move him,
who wants to “feel" that hois good
enough to go before lie makos any
change in his conduct, was there ever
a more homely or more convfcning Il
lustration presented than theaneedo'e
ef the man who sat down, ax In hand
at the root of a tree one cold frosty
morning, waiting for the sweat to
break out before he went la work ?
Brother Jones admit* hi* natural
weaknesses. Ha ha* the appearance
of a man of a hasty and once violent
temper. It must have been difficult
at first to keep a lock upon his Ups
he is no doubt a man, brave impulsive
courageous—tho very sort open lo
temptation. Was there ever a better
illustaatlon of one liable to fall, yet
determined to stand, than that made
yesterday of himself.
“I dont care bow often one err, if
he’ll honestly strive to restrain him
solf and recover his proper balance
when he does err. Ail along the way
we meet with conflicts and tempta
tions. When I stumble and lai'thank
God I always fail r|jto.an India-rub
ber-hall—l fall bouncing! God wilt
put his angels on hat* rations to keep
an honest man and his family from
starving.”
Withal, he reaches men of less im
posslb’e sympathies by mixing horse
sense logic with horse sense wit anec
dotes and Mlnstratrion*, for no one
can more clearly establish to the mul
titude his proposition that “religion
is a matter of principle and convic
tion.’
But tho best answer lo all his crit
ic* is to point to results. What If
Brother Jones' word* re plaiu and
blunt? What though he prefers to
call tho devil the devil rather than
‘his Satanic excellency from the burn
ed district ?” Or likes nnshlrted “heir
better than “sheol” la purple and fine
linen ? He moves his hearers. He
holds In his hand the assembled
thousands; and whether ho preach
forty minutos or two hours they hang
on, obedient to bis will! L*t result
decide the Issue. Men of all grade*
and classes enjoy bis sermons alike.
They rise at 5 in tho morning to pre
pare for his 6 o’clock
sermon—men, women, and
children, who perhaps, have never
s-en the sun rise till now. And when
the exhortation Is delivered and
“Psalmsof Victory” sung they move
forward from ail pa. t
of the tent, and, “(hose who
came to scoff remained to prai.” The
barkeeper and his, patron, tho gam
bler and his victim, the doctor and
his patient, men and women, lawyer
and client good and bad. hardened
ago and tender childhood, till, within
the past three days, ai this meeting
alone, 300 or 400havo either professed
religion or declared tlioinselves peni
tent.
It is the proud boast of Brother
Jones' friends and admirers that in a
single revival at Knoxville, he closed
27 barrooms and thus redeemed 270
drunkards. How poor and insignifi.
cant seem all the results of tho
Maine liquor aud bleeding Kansas
prohibition laws in comparison with
a work like that!

A telegram of (he I9th from Keene
JI. H., says: Barnum’s large Asiatic
c ephant “Albert,” which killed keep
er Jas. Sweeney at Nashua Saturday,
was taken to a ravine in (he suburbs
of Keene Ibis afternoon and kitted.
He was chained to four large trees
and the location of the heart and
brain marked with chalk. Thirty
three members of the Keene Light
Guard were then marshalled iu line
at fificen paces, and at the the word
“fire” the same number of bullets
penetratod the vital spots. The huge
boast fell dead without a struggle.
Albert was thirty years old and has
been used as a performing elephant
until lire last three months, when he
had shown such temper that he was
withdrawn from the trained herd. He
was valued at about SIO,OOO. The
eniains have been donated to the

THE BEST MACHINE.
The cotton planters will have to
use tue old-fashioned ten-fingered
cotton picker again this tall. Neither
Mr. Mason nor any of his rivals, has
been able to so far perfect a machine
at to put it on the market. It is to
be feared that the prospect for a per
fect cotton-picking machine are not
very promising just now. It seems
lhat even Mr. Mason is not yet satis
fied with the workings of his machine.
More long and tedious experiments
are necessary. Perhaps Mr Mason, if
a married man, might get some as
sittance from his wife. It will be
remembered that Whitney never
would have made anything of the
cotton gin If his better hall had uol
instinctively given his saws a stroke
with her hair brush.—Savannah
