Gen. Joe Wheeler is certainly
elected to Congress from the Eighth
Alabama District, over Lowe, Green-
backer, and present incumbent
His majority, however, is only
43. In the last election Lowe’s ma-
jority was over 2,500.
The Nashville American says:
“ We find democrats generally keep
ing their upper lips in a stiff condition
and their courage dry for use in 1884.
Far from the result having dampened
their ardor, it has simply determined
them to bide their time. The doleful
prophets are really fewer than they
were in 1872.”
It is wid that at a caucus of Gen.
Lawton’s friends in the legislature,
the other night, the fact was develop

Our congratulations to Mr. Walsh,

The republicans say “ the South

in the business of “ raising h—11.”
Garfield did not get a vote in
Coffee, Columbia, McDuffie or Irwin

There is a man in the legislature

The banner which Gebrgia won

The New Orleans Picayune says;
“No. 329 has been chalked on the

Columbia. The road to a nation’s
shame is covered with DeGolyer pave

soars aloft. T .t is sore all over.”
Hon. Emory Speer must feel
lonely when he reflects that he is the
only opponent ot the democracy in
the eutire Georgia congressional dele
gation.—Savannah News.
Lonely? Just you watch Emory,
when Congress convenes, as le saun
ters into the hall of the House, and
see if he looks lonely. He will come
nearer looking like he owned the en
tire body. The man who talks about
Speer’s being “an opponent of the
Democracy,” is talking lolly.
A paragraph in the Governor's
message discloses some astonishing
evidences of Georgia’s wealth in min
erals. There are, says the Governor,
in the State’s collection specimens of
iron ore from 71 counties ; granite
from 45 counties; gold ore from 61
counties; limestone from 48 oounties;
quartz from 47 counties ; soapstone
from 22 counties; mill rock from 71
counties;asbestos irom 28 oounties;
copper from 27 counties; corundum
from 9 counties; kaolin froth 11 coun
ties ; manganese from 15 counties;
marble from 6 counties; serpentine for
mantels from 11 oonnties.
It is said that Ex-Gov. James M.
Smith carre near making the Tace
against Judge Jackson for the chief*
justiceship. By not doing so, he saved
himself some trouble and a certain
defeat.
It seems that plowing a bobtail
bull yearling , did not make, Joe
Brown’s fortune after all. It is gen
erally supposed that the ex-governor
started with nothing ana worked his
way up. Rev. C. W. Thomas, of
Griffin, who says he has knowp Sena
tor Brown from his (Thomas’) boy
hood, tells a reporter of the News
some facts concerning Brown’s' early
life. He says Brown married the
daughter of the president of the mint
at Dahlonega, who, in common jiar-
lance, was said to be “worth ’her
weight in gold.’’ So it would appear
that Joseph had his wile’s oapikil,; as
well as his own judgment, for a foun
dation for his fortune.
It is probable that Johnson, a col
ored barber, has been elected to Con
gress from the first Arkansas district.
His majority is reported to be .1,000.
Hjs candidacy was announced but a

N aw comes a veracious Frenchman
and says that Sara Bernhardt has only

. New York is not necessarily a
democratic state. It has gone that
. way only twice in the last twenty
yean. In I860, 1864, and 1872 it
was carried by the republicans. In
1868 and 1876 the democrats carried

The Land ot the Sky.
Looking at the map, it would seem
impossible from the mountains delin
eated thereon, for a railroad to go lrom
noithcast Georgia to southwestern
North Carolina. Bat Dot so; nature
has designed a way to pass the other
wise impossible barriers.
The more southern ranges of moun
tains seem to be, from wbat engineers
say, almost if not quite astrouble ome
as the others. The old Blue Ridge
railroad, which tried to gei from Soiith
Carolina into North Carolina, without
making a line through Georgia terri
tory, was a conspicuous failure. It
was intended to run from ’Anderson,
So. Ca., by Walballa, throngh Rabnn
Gap, down the Tennessee river and
thence to Marysville, and there to con
nect with a road to Knoxville. • On
this ronte, which ran directly across
the mountains, there were such long
tunnels and steep grades, that the
road was abandoned before it was
completed.
The proposed route of the North
eastern is better laid out. The engin
eer decided without hesitation that
the best places to cross the mountains
were where the streams crossed them;
that these were, of course, the lowest
points. So therefore he laid the route
through the mountains on the south
ern side, where the Tallulah river
breaks through; and thus without
any extreme grades,- be found his way
to the elevated basin which constitutes
Rabun county.
From there the way out into North
Carolina is easy enough. Rabun Gap
is a natural pass—a place where the
sides of the mouiitains slope down
until the railroad will actually go
across the Blue Ridge mountains with
a cut only eighteen inches deep. And
it is worthy of note, that with the
exception of the pas* near Dalton,
this is the only place in all the extent
-of this range of mountains where a
railroad can be built. This matter
has been tested time and again by
railroads, and every time with the
6ame result. No other available pass
can be found. , „
The mountains once crossed, the
fertile fields and rich bottoms of North
Carolina are reached. Here the Sa
vannah and Tennessee rivers rise.
The headwaters of each are in
swamps, which are not more than fifty
yards apart. Indeed, there can still
be seen the remains of a ditch, which
was once dng to tarn the incipient
waters of the Tennessee into the stream
which afterward grows into the broad
Savannah. . . . ,
Here the earth brings forth jilenti*
fully, and the fruits of the ground
await the iron arteries of commerce
to hear them to a market. The ques
tion now is whether the road which
shall tap this sealed country and cause
its richness to flow out, shall be the
Northeastern or some other. It is no
secret, that the road which first
reaches Tallulah Fails, is the one which
will go on to Knoxville. The North
eastern holds (be key to the situation.
Shall the bolt be turned, and the door
of this grand enterprise opened to ns
and to the world,‘or shaH it remain
closed until some other apd readier
hand shall do the work ?

Good Reasons for the“Doctor’s Faith.
Monbok, Ga., March 23, 1880.—Wc have for
twelve months been prescribing ( u Swift’s Sy
philitic”) in the treatment of Syphilis and inary
other diseases for which it is recommend' d, and
the results have been most satisfactory, not
having been disappointed in a single instance.
We think, for all disease* it i* recommended to
cure it stands without a peer, and that all the
medical profession will, sooner oc later, be
forced to acknowledge it in the treatment of
SyphilH*, as a aino qua non, *

Extract from a Letter of Rev Dr. Lovick
Pierce, Sparta, Ga., April 23, 1879.
Dear Sm: I have found your Liver Tonic to
oe more effectual than anything I have ever
used in relief of habitual coustipation. It is
the best of those Liver Regulators. Yours,
L. PIERCE.
Db. B. 8. Lyndon—DxAn Sib: I cmi never
find words to express my gratitude to you for
the incalculable benefit i navo derived from the
use of “Smith’s Liver Tonic.” For two years
[ suffered with Liver diseope in the worst form,
and never had any permanent relief until the
first of last November, whon I procured a bottle
of the Liver Tonic. Sinoo t len, I have u*cd
only two and a half bottles, and am entirely
well. I have not felt a symptom of the disease
since taking the first dose. 1 had previously
tried several physicians and many other reme-
dies, and all tailed to affect me beneficially.
Respectfully, E. ELLEN P ATM A N.
