A New York correspondent in areeent

the profits derived from it that when a
game becomes by bad luck bankrupt or

Among all the disreputable devices of

THE SITUATION.
REVIEW OF THE WEEK,
Saturday NIeht, October SStli. 185G.
Tho week closing to-night has been
rainless in Macon and above fr03t tem
perature—fine, mellow October weather,
and thus fir in tho fall season wa have
escaped a killing frost. Tho early morn
ing temperature of the week has not been
far from sixty, and the season altogether
has been unusually favorable to the
ingathering of tho cotton crop, which
has progressed with extraordinary rapidi
ty and will soon bo finished. In fact
many of the planters report thsir crops
already picked.
Tho receipts of the week have been
heavy. On Friday 1,433 bales came in
—964 by rail and 474 by wagon. For tho
five days ending Friday night the total
receipts were 5,180 bales—3.083 by rail,
and 2,097 by wagon. Tko sales during
tho same time were 4,144 bales, and tho
shipments 3,903. Saturday’s business
will bo fonnd in onr regular market re
port of this date.
Tho total receipts of the season up to
and including Friday were 32,415 bales,
against 15,922 bales for tbo correspond
ing period of last year—showing an in
crease of 16,493 bales, or something moro
than double tho cotton trade of last year.
It is probable, from tho enquiries
among business houses wo have been
able to make, that there has been a large
though not a corresponding increase in
tho general trade of tho city. All the
houses make a cheerful, and some a glow
ing report. All are satisfied, and a good
proportion flushed and enthused by the
suoce33 and tho prospects.
Tho wholesale grocery and provision
trade fa reported from satisfactory to very
heavy. Betail do. satisfactory. Iron and
hardware a good deal bettor than last
year. Wholesale dry goods very satisfac
tory. Tho tobacco business has been
dnll daring tho week. Wholesale drug
trado active. Trade in liquors very
heavy- Shoe trade beyond anticipation.
Clothing light, but will improve with
colder woather. Tho-' has also been,
daring the week, a y heavy trado in
fruits, particularly apples, which are fine
and low priced,
The banks report money Tory easy,
with little or no demand, and payments
more prompt than have been known bo*,
foro for many years. On tho whole, tho
trade situation in Macon must be con
ceded to be unusually good, end the ont-
look for the rest of tho season fa consid
ered cheerfal.
In health, Macon has an almost abso
lately clean hill, and in pnblic order and
morals all fa peaceful and serene. Good
temper and friendly feeling aro univer-
Cabinet Speculations.
Tho Herald of Tuesday has a longartl
clo upon tho Cabinet officers who will
probably compose tho administration of
Hayes or of Tilden, whoever of the two
may bo elected to tho Presidency. It
would almost appear that the Herald’s
Cabinet lists had been prepared with
malice prepense against the Badical
party; but careful consideration will
show that Hayes, it elected, could do no
better:
Hayes Cabinet.—Blaine, Morton, Bris
tow, Chandler, Conkling; Evarte, Judge
Hoar, General Butler, Logan, Morgan,
Sherman, Cnrtfa, Jewell. And to repre
sent tho South: Spencer (Alabama), Kel
logg (Louisiana), Chamberlain (South
Carolina).
Tilden Cabinet—Thurman, Bayard,
C. F. Adams, Belmont, Trumbull, D. A.
Wells, Bandolph, Morrison, Hewitt, Gas
ton, Payne, Governor Palmer, Hubbard
(Connecticut). And to represent the
South: Gordon (Georgia), L. Q. C. Lamar.
Of tho gentlemen in this list, says tho
Herald, from whom Mr. Hayes will, if
elected, select a Cabinet, it fa pretty cer
tain that Mr. Curtis would not bo con
firmed by tho Senate. Probably Judge
Hoar and Mr. Evorts would no confirmed
with difficulty, if at all. Messrs. Elaine,
Morton, Conkling and Bristow, with ono
of tho three Southern men on tho list,
would be die prominent members; for
tho other two places. Senator Logan,
Secretary Chandler and Senator Sher
man would bo tho most conspicuous can
didates : or, if tho personal hostility of
Blaine to Conkling and Bristow and of
Conkling to Blaino and Bristow would
make them incompatible or impossible
members of ono Cabinet, ihen there re
main for selection Messrs. Chandler, Lo
gan, Sherman, Morgan and Jowell, with
one of the first named.
'Beform within tho party” through
the instrumentality of a Cabinet com
posed of such material as Blaine, Morton,
Chandler, Butler, Logan & Company,
might well be compared to reform from
within a brothel or a gambling den. Bnt
fortunately tho American people aro not
going to call upon any of these ring poli
ticians to undertake the work.
Tilden will select tho Cabinet, and we
aro impressed with the idea that it will
bo chosen with a special regard to fitness
for the great preliminary work which
Tilden will find to his hands so soon as
ho fa seated in the Executive Chair. Tho

For many months, almost every day
witnesses the appearance in one or more
New York papers or paragraphs like tho
following:
Mb. Vanderbilt's Condition.—Mr.
Vanderbilt is still free from pain, and
throughout yesterday was quiet and
cheerful. Ho slept bnt little daring the
day, being engaged in conversation or in
listening to the reading of the papers.
Before retiring last night ho spent a few
hoars in an easy chair.
Every groan and ache of tho rich old
Commodore, how many eggs ho was able
to eat, who went to eeo him, what ho
said and what they rejoined, what will be
the probable disposition of bis vast es
tate, how the changes of the weather af
fect him—in short, everything that the
sick man does, says, or even imagines, is
faithfully chronicled, as though all tho
world wero interested in the recital and
momentous results were thereby involv
ed. Not content with this, and impa
tient at tho endnrante and vitality of tho
tongh old gentleman, they even went so
far on ono occasion as to “shuffle oil” for
him hfa “ mortal coil” and pronounced
the famous millionaire os dead as Julias
Collar. Nay more: They prepared an
elaborate obituary notice, fulsome, prolix
and panegyric, which was duly heralded
forth, and to givo complete credence to
the story, his spiritual adviser and friend,
Dr. Deems, was credited with divulging
all the particulars of the last scene.
Then afterwards appeared tho follow
ing precious morceau:
Hearing hh Obituary Bead.—Com
modore Vanderbilt was more comforta
ble yesterday. In tho evening ho was
placed in a reclining chair and rolled into
a pleasant front room, and there ho
laughingly listened to the reading of his
“obituary” as published by an evening
newspaper.

are right on the spot They do not meet
in Atlanta, and it would be but polite to
them to respectfully await tbo publica

This, too, when tho noble President of
tho Board of Health lay stretched upon a
bed of sickness and critically ill with tho
yellow fever. How can any sensible man
deem it possible for tbe Board of Health,
whose members aro scattered oil over tho
commonwealth, to offer reliable and ap

have had no opportunity of investigating?
When Dr. Thomas, in God’s providence,
is restored to health, and can testify in
the premises, and when the Board has
possessed itself of all tho experience and
practical observations cf tho medical fac
ulty who officiated at the sick conches of
those infected with the epidemic, then
will they be able to arrive at some prob
able, and perhaps correct, conclusion as
to its origin and treatment.

The same paper says on Thursday
evening a serious accident occurred in
tho Union Passenger Depot. A3 tho
Atlanta and Went Point passenger train
was coming in, and while it was runnin?,
Mr. George Eddleman jumped off and fell
on the floor. As he fell his left foot
struck tho track close to the wheels of
ono of tho cars, and ero assistance could
ho rendered him tho whoel ran over his
foot, completely crushing it. Dre. Baines
and Bidley woro summoned, and removed
tho shoo and stocking. Tho wounded
man was carried to his brother’s, when
Drs. W. F. Westmorland, E. S. Bay and
T. M. McIntosh were sent for. The foot
was so badly crushed that it had to be
amputated above tho ankle, which tbo9e
gentlemen did very skillfully. Mr E1-

It is alleged that there has been loose
ness and mal-administration in the finan
ces of the Government. I shall certainly
not seek to inflnenco tho decision of the
courts in regard to pending cases. "What
you desire and I desire is tho truth.
There has been no attempt to cover up,
no attempt to conceal. Where anything
wrong has been suspected it has been
placed before the courts in order to right
tho wrong and punish tho wrongdoer
or vindicate tho innocent. What man
could ask for moro than this ? But it
has been said that tho debt of tho
Stats baa been increased. As aTrant a
falsehood as ever was told. Bullock cre
ated a debt of between thirteen and four
teen millions of dollars. The reports of
tho Bond Committee reduced this debt
to about, eight million dollars. Tbo in
vestigations of these committees saved
you five millions. "Whatever designing
or ignorant men may say, never was bet
ter s .rvice performed than that done by
the investigating committees of 1872.
Tho debt since ha3 been reduced $700,-
000 It is still being reduced at tbo rate
of $100,000 a year. It had been charged
in speeches over tho country that tho debt
had been increased. Tho ermine has
been besmirched for tho purpose of prop
agating these statements. It was charged
that tho taxes wero higher than during
tho last administration. Why didn't
those who charged thfa make tho whole
statement? Why didn’t they tell that
bonds were issued by Bullock to defray
the current expenses of the government ?
No bonds bad been issued for any such
purpose during tho present administra
tion. Fonr-tenths of ono per cent, was
assessed for current expenses, and one-
tenth of ono par cent, for a sinking fund.
He stamped the statement that the ox
ponses of tho government wero higher
than during tho last administration as
false.

Fun In Political Controversy.
The Tallahassee Floridian, which, by
tho way, wieldo an exceedingly trenchant
pen in political controversy, is having its
own fun in the canvass now going on in
tho Land of Flowers. Tho candidates of
tho Florida Bidicalp, who bavo been com.
pressed into ono ticket by the not alto
gether hydraulic power of old Zack and
hfa Bsdical committee in Washington,
prior to that compulsory consolidation,
wore waging a bitter personal fight in
tho newspapers founded on antagonistic
interests in tho division of tho public
plunder. Accordingly, tho Floridian
evory now and then lays aside hfa edi
torial sledgo hammer and permits them
to frail each other. And it must be con
fessed that they do execution. Wo find
a good sample of their prowess in the
last number of the Floridian, as follows:
Foe Congress, First District-lf. f, Furman,
of Jackson county.—Sentinel.
Thfa whining, hypocritical traitor as
sumes to carry the Bepublican party in
his pockets, mixed up with blue scrip,
Florida bonds and cadet appointments.—
Sentinel.
Fob Goversob—ITarcelius L. Steams, ol
Gadsden county.—Sentinel.
Thfa uncivilized monster in onr politics
fa even now attempting to procure a po
litical endorsement for the purpose of
prolonging his rnlo over our betrayed and-
misgoverned State.—TV. J. Purman,
Fob Coxobess—First District—W. J. Forman,
of Jackson county.—Sentinel.
Thfa man W. J. Purman fa gangrened
and fly-blown with corruption and treach
ery, and never drew an honest breath.—
Sentinel.
Fob Governor—MaTcellus L. Steams, of'
Gadsden county. —Sentinel.
Who could then have divined that Prov
idence had in store for us the infliction
of thfa obesity of incompetency os onr
future Governor? The unfortunate death
of Governor Hart in 1874 precipitated
this nhlegmatic incubus upon onr State.
