By a recent business connection
with a prominent Georgian, the Rome
Tribune is feeling solid-r.
The well nigh perfect system ol
public schools in Georgia is denomi
nated by the New Orleans Times as
“ the pride of her people.”
Judging from what we read in the
Marietta Journal, the colored citizens
of Marietta are certainly anticipating
Christmas by indulging in mean whis*
key.
Collins will, it is said, contest
Black's seat in the First district. This
is the only contest in Georgia of which
we have any notice. Mr. Collins
ought to have a hard road to travel.
Col. Black was fairly elected.
REDUCED RAILROAD FARE.
Mr. Wadley, the veteran president
of the Central railroad, has been in
terviewed by the reporter of the
Savannah News, on the subject of the
last act of Hie railroad commissioners,
reducing the passenger fare. When
asked if the reduction of the passeng
er rates would have a beneficial cr
contrary effect upon the business of
the company, Col. W. replied that
such result did not enter into the
question. ' - principle involved/
which wa. pernicious in its ten-
denees, was alone to be considered,
and if it were conceded that the Com
missioners could pursue such a course
the natural inquiry would he, ‘‘What
next? Where will this interference
stop l’’
There is no small amount of force
in Mr. Wndley’s objection. While it
is right that the railroads should be
prevented by law, if necessary, fror.i
exercising their great power to the
•leti intent to the people, at the same
time they- should m t be oppressed by
law. The people of Georgia, as well
as the railroads will be fortunate if
they do not learn by experience, be
fore long, that a mo«t dangerous
power is lodged in the hands of the
commissioners. Exactly how far the
state should interfere in the manage
ment of railroads, is a problem not
yet solved. We can daily see how
the railroads may regard the last act
of the commission as tyrannical.
The democrats of the Senate have
killed a scheme for raising the price
of every glass of good lager beer drunk
in the United Slates. If the session
goes on in this way, according to the
New York World, the democrats will
do more in two months to retrieve
the disaster r c 1880 than they did in
six yeanftUVffert it
BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS.
The Gossip of the Capital.
Mayor Cooper has put John Kelly
out of office, but he cannot shear him
of power altogether. By a republican
alliance, John Kelly has thrived hith*
erto. By a republican alliance, his
enemies li»vo dethroned him. There
is too mnoh republican alliance in
New York democracy. The hog
trough should bo the party symbol
in New York.
Here is the old Wall street method
as described by an expert: First, easy
money ; second, an inrush of eager
buyers; third, a rapid spurt iu prices;
4lb, tight money; fifth, prices break
and the margin-makers 3re ‘scooped.’
Until the patience or the money of
tho general run of speculators is ex
hausted the ‘ milking’ piocess is an
easy ono.
Col. Bill Harris said to an At
lanta newspaper man the other day:
“I know of plantations in Worth
oonnty which could have been bought
for a rifle or a shot gun several years
ago, but are now held at $1,000.’’
This statement is about as near correct
as those of Messrs. Toombs and Ste
phens, to the effect that Georgia is
growing poorer every day.
Recent advices from Atlanta indi
cate that Fulton county will have
republican candidate for Ordinary.
This is an important office and the
“stalwarts” should look well to its
bearings upon future occasions.
Should the Republicans succeed in
this effort, they might possibly be en-
abled to locate the county polls and
increase their number to suit their
convenience to the detriment of the
county.
Georgia has inaugurated an emi
gration scheme of her own through
tho enterprise of a railroad corpora
tion having 3,000,000 acres of salable
land in the northcasem part. of the
state. One bnndred Swiss are
nounoed to set sail from Havre, De
cember 4th, to found the Georgia
Switzerland. Georgia is the most
progressive of the southern states, and
seta an example that may be followed
with profit by the others.
• The people of Pensacola, Fla.,
have suffered a terrible visitation 61
fire, which consumed seventy-five
buildings, comprising the greater part
of tho business portion of the city,
all the newspaper and telegraph
offices—the total loss being estimated
at half a million dollars. With charac
teristic American energy the flames
are scarcely extinguished before the
sufferers Announce their intention to
rebuild and resume. The lesult will
be that tho oldtfashioued, half Mexi
can architecture having disappeared
from the heart of Pensacola, a more
modern and pretending style will rise
from tho ashes, a result only to be
regretted by artist*, who by their pea-
*.> have made the quaint scenes of
the town so familiar. It is gratifying
to know that the Pensaooliana are not
need of assistance; despite their heavy
Jossee.
(From our Special Correspondent.)
Washington, Dec. 17, 1880.
America is, of all countries, the
most cosmopolitan, and Washington
in this respect is its typical city. May
be there are more “furren gents’’ in
New York and Philadelphia and San
Francisco, but they ate submerged in
mighty populations, and are not seen
in such bold re'ief. In Washington
they stand out in picturesque novelty
and attractiveness. Take any morn
ing in the winter, and walk irom the
Treasury Department to the capitol,
and one can see more strange people
than could he seen in half a century
in any city in the South, except per
haps in wicked and delightful New
Orleans.
The droschkv of the Russian minis
ter will dash by, drawn by a pair of
“ Tartars of the Ukraine breed’’—at
least we will imagine them to be. The
Russian minister is a magnificent
looking man, and ns he lolls back in
his luxuriously fitted carriage, envel
oped with furs ami sables, it can he
easily seen that he belongs to the
proudest and most cultivated, most
adroit and diplomatic, and more than
all, the most cruel aristocracy ot Eu
rope—the Russian nobility.
A very different man is old Sir Ed
ward Thornton, the British minister.
He may be seen any day, driving with
bis flaxen-haired daughters, who re
mind one ol Rowenn, the Saxon. Sir
Edward is himself a gray-haired old
gentleman, with mutton-chop whisk
ers, and a sort of leaden look about
the lace, suggestive ot much of the
roast beef of old England, washed
down with generous libations of port
wine. The goodness of Sir Edward’s
cellar dees not detract from his popu
larity in Washington.
But here come some members of
the Chinese embassy. Those almond
eyed celestials excite much interest, to
all of which they are supremely ins
different. They go clattering along
in their peculiar shoes, and carry their
pig-tails as jauntily as il the whole
country belonged to them, ns the Cal
ifornians believe it will some ol these
days.
Aud who is this gentleman w ho
comes down the street as if the pave
ment was not wide enough for his
triumphal progress ? His lace is as
red as Barilolph’s nose, of which or
gan Falstaff said that a flea on it
would look like a soul iu hell He has
on the most impossible pattern of pan
taloons that ever adorned a gentle
man’s nether extrcmi'ies. His waist
coat is of a piece. HU tall, white hat
is set on at a mkisb angle of forty-five
degrees, and it-mny w ell be doubted
whether the watch he wears is quite
as large as the fob which indicates its
presence. This is a character. It is
Col. Tom Ochiltree, ot Texas, who is
said to be the most self-sufficient man
ou the American continent. It was
of the Colonel that the New York
Son loftily writes:
“Oh, Tom Ochiltree htt come out of the South,
To make us the music he nukes with hia mouth.
In all the broail reach of this land of the free.
There ia no such a yamer as Tom Ochiltree.”
It was this same gentleman who
commenced the practice of law with
his father, a very distinguished mem
ber of the Texas bar, and when the
old gentleman returned home alter a
short absence, during which he bad
instructed Tom to have the office sign
re-painted, was astonished to find
that Tom had re-painted the sign and
re-lettered it—“Tom Ochiltree and
Father, attorneys at law.”
Il a half a square we may meet the
Arabs, who are now exhibiting their
national games, and representing the
whirling Dervish. We may see a
long-haired medical Fakir, or Indian
doctor, who prelendB to deal in won
derful medical herbs and cure-alls
for every sort of diseases. Plain Io-
dians, in their national costumes, add
to tho novelty of the scene. It is
very difficult, by the way, to keep
these worthies in their national attire.
They are prone to take advantage of
the liberality of Unde 8am, and array
themselves in store clothes of a gor
geous type, hardly surpassed by the
rig of Col. Ochiltree himself. One
don’t know how many different sorts
of people there are on the foot stool
until lie comes to Washington.
CHRISTMAS THINGS.
The windows of the shops are non
filled with the most beautiful Christ
mas things, many of them so beautiful
and rare that the eyes of the little
folks in Georgia would dance with
delight to sec them—and the streets
are full of ladies shopping and buying
articles, I suppose, to lend to Santa
Cl-tus. In ail of the magnificence of
our great capital, you are reminded
that “ t,be poor;are always with you.”
Little barefooted girls and boys are'
begging on the streets. Poor little
souls! hungry enough they look, aud
very cold, and he has a I ard
heart who cm roughly rebuff
the “phase, sir, give me a
penny,” which is invariably their
piteous appeal.
ULYSSES, THE GREAT,
is iu Washington now. He came in a
few days ago, with the ladies of his
family, and is now stopping with his
friend, Gen. Beale, a rich Washing
tonian. He was met at the depot by
a large delegation of the “ Boys in
Blue,’’ and lias been toted and ovated
with great pertinacity since his arrival
Fitzbugh, the first democratic door
keeper after the war, was turned out
of office by a democratic congress be
cause he wrote to a frieud in Texas—
“ I am a liiger man than old Giant.”
This was very hard on Filzhugh, and
I have always thought his friend acted
very meanly to give him away as he
did, but we hardly think that the
door keeper was “ a blger man than
old Grant.” lie is the bigge.-t man
to d.iv on the American continent,
except maybe the president from the
tow-path.
I saw General Grant to>-day for the
first time. He was on the floor of the
House while it was in session. It was
immediately moved that the House
take a recess for ten minutes so that
the members could be presented to
him. Certainly a very great houor
to an American citizen, but not great
er than the same congress has already
paid to Mr. Parnell, the Irish patriot,
who is now giving Queen Victoria so
much domestic trouble. The motion
was carried, although there were a
few rebellious members who had not
the fear of men or princes before their
eyes, voted no in a very distinct voice.
Grant then was presented to all of the
members, who came torward to shake
hands with him, and then the officers
of the House, and even the little pages
had their turn at the hand that re-;
ceived the sword of Lee at Appomat
tox.
Grant looks a good deal like Judge
Erwin, of youi circuit, though appar
ently not much more than half so tall.
He certainly lias one of the most de
termined faces I ever saw, and there
is certainly a great deal of magnetism
about the little man. You feci it un
mistakably. They say he has quit
drinking altogether, at which all good
temperance people should rejoice.
Garfield is also a teetotaler.

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
“THE gentleman from GADDIS-
TOWN,”
had the floor yesterday in the Senate,
and delivered a much-talkcd-of speech
on the bill to sell the public lands and
divide the proceeds among the several
States, in proportion to illiteracy, to
educate the poor children. The papers
speak in the highest terms of Senator
Brown’s speech. The Washington
Republican has a leading editorial on
the subject, entitled “ A healthy
breeze from Georgia.” The New
York Herald devotes quite a portion
of its valuable telegraph space to eu
logies on the chunks of wisdom that
fell irom the emphatic lips of oar new
Senator. Senator Brown pointed out
that nearly all of our prominent men
from Washington to Garfield, had
been poor boys, and had by their
thirst for knowledge, and their indus
try worked their way up to the top.
It would not be hard to imagine that
the Senator remembered from his post
tion of vantage in the Senate cham
ber, the time when he plowed the
historic bull, and barked bis shins
over the new.ground stumps away up
in the 9th district.
IN THE HOUSE,
as was predicted in my last letter, the
discussion on the electoral count has
come to nothing. It has been laid
aside, and the House has got down
to business. It passed on yesterday
the fortification appropriation bill,
aud the representative from the Ninth
was on the floor for a little while, in
resisting the efforts of the Military
Commitee to appropriate 8400,000
to build fortifications on the sea coast.
Mr. Speer pointed out, on the author
ity of Gen. Grant, referring to it in
one of his messages, that modern ex
perience had demonstrated that earth
works were a sufficient protection for
guns and troops, and that the day of
fortifications of masonry had passed
It was not the masonry ot Fort Sum
ter, he said, that kept the powerful
iron-clad fleet of the Union from
Charleston harbor, but it was the im
pregnable system of earth-works,
manned l>y ihe Southern artillery,
that accomplished that result. The
amendment was defeated, and thus
$400,000 was saved to the Treasury.
Mr. Speer’s remarks were the last
made before tho vote was taken.

Monroe, Ga., March 23, 1830.—We have for
twelve month* been prescribing ( 41 Swift’* Sy

other disease* for which it is recommended, anci
the results have been # inost satisfactory, not
having been disappointed in n single instance.
We think, for all disease* it is recommended to
cure it stand* without a peer, and that all the
medical profession will, sooner Oi Inter, be
torced to acknowledge it in the treatment of
Syphillis, as a sine qua non.

Dear Sib: I have found yonr Liver Tonic to
t>e more effectual than Anything I have ever
used in relief of habitual constipation. It is
the best of these Liver Regulator*. Yonra,
L. PIERCE.
Dr. E. S. Lyndon—Dear Sib: I can never
find words to express my gratitude to you for
the incalculable benefit 1 nave derived from the
use of “Smith’s Liver Tonic.” For two year*
I suffered with Liver disease in the worst form,
and never had any permanent relief until the
first of last November, when I procured a bottle
of the Liver Tonic. Sinoo then, I have used
only two and a half bottles, and am entirely
well. I have not felt a symptom of the disease
since taking the first dose. I had previously
tried several physicians and many other reme
dies, and all tailed to affect me beneficially.
Respectfully, E. ELLEN PATMAN.

who do not come up and settle will soon find
their notes and accounts in the hands of an
