EDITORIAL NOTES. Tiie caraiiaign is lively in Virginia. Let’s have a law prohibiting the manufacture ant] sale of pistols. Is this hot wave cnuscil by the war like condition of the Gate City Guards? There seems to have been some- thing of instinctive wisdom in the Domination of Maj. John W. Daniel for governor, by the democracy of Virginia. What with the straight out republican party which is com- Tbavilbo Agent, p ase j mainly of the ignorance of the state, led on by aliens, whose incentive is spoils, on the one hand, and the Mabonc repudiationists, whose pa triotism is even discounted by the radi- cals and whose leader believes that 'to reign is worth ambition though in hell,” on the other, the old commons wealth has been ‘in the toils’ for sev eral years. In this nomination, the man and the occasion seems to have met for the redemption of the state from misrule and the horde of vam pires who have led on her honor and sapped the foundations of her materi al proiperity. Virginia’s opportunity X ext Tuesday at 9 a. m., Chancel lor Mell will deliver an address on the University of Georgia, before the leg- I , )ag ‘ a ' a lier t “ ue son >" w ,n ]|h islature, by invitation. Ths bill creating the Northeastern circuit has been signed by the Gov ernor and the election for judge and solicitor will take place next Monday. The washerwomen stiikersin At lanta now number 900, and the Atlanta editors enu wear their shirts three weeks at a time without becoming the subjects of invidious remark. The l’osi-Appeal claims that At lanta has 4,000 buildings going up, and that she consumes 30,000 water melons every day. That’s right; tell a good one while you are at it. It would be ridiculous to have an exposition in Georgia, invite all other states and countries to be on hand, and then have Georgia unrepresented. And yet that’s iust what a lew of the papers want. Wonderful is the prejudice against Atlanta! Judge Twiggs withdrew bis bill to make cotton factories liable for injuries to employes, because of an assurance from the Augusta manufacturers that if the bill passed, they would discharge all minors wi.h whom they could not make contracts.

Tnis agreeable information is conveyed to the l’rinco in bucket letters ot warn ing. Mr. John W.

He was an excellent man,and had lest an arm in the Confederate service. her above and beyond the dangers which have threatened her. Maj. Daniel’s nomination has been received with a cordial enthusiasm which proves the wisdom of the con vention and is prophetic of a grand triumph at the polls. His name in spires confidence in every portion of the.state and gives to the country ass surance that the old race of giants, whose illustrious names crown with honor the nation’s history,have still an exi-tence in their progeny, lie is spoken of thus by a friend. “He is an accomplished lawyer, a ready de bater, an attractive and forcible stump speaker, worthy of any focman’s steel in discussion, and possesses in an em inent degree distinctive power over the populace. His utterances are magnetic and draw the popular heart irresistibly, llis control of an audi ence is phenominal. When the pale, beardless face of the Virginia nominee gleams above the crowded and noisy amphitheatre, silence so deep that a pin’s fall is detected, follows, and the attentive countenances of the andicnce are eagerly expectant. He sways and thrills the crowd with matchless elo quence.” He was chosen oyer several of the most honored and talented gentlemen in the state and wc con gratulate the old mother of slates on the brightening prospects. TIIE NEW CAPITAL TOE NORTHEASTERN CIRCUIT. The Judge and Solicitor of the Northeastern circuit were elected yes terday, by the Senate and House in joint convention. For judge, Mr. Silman, of the house, nominated Hon. W L Marler, seconded by Mr. Estes of tho house. Mr. Davis, of Habersham, nominated Judge C U Hutton, ot Habersham, seconded by Mr. Mosley of the senate. Mr. Guerry, of the senate, nominated lion. C J Wellborn, ot Union, sec onded by Mr. Davis, ot Lumpkin. Judgn Wellborn was elected. The vote stood, Wellborn, 141 ; Marler, 41; Sutton, 11. The election for solicitor general was next in order. * Mr. Price, ot the senate, nominated R H Baker, of Luiupkiu, seconded by Mr. Lamar, oi the house. Mr. Polliill, of the house, nomiuated Mr. H W J Ham, of Hall, seconded by Mr. Raney, of the house. Mr. Butt, of the senate, nominated \V S Erwin, of Habersham, seconded by Mr. Barrow, of Clarke. Mr. Es tes, of the house, nominated NV F Findlay, of Hall, but withdrew his name during the ballot and voted lor Ham. The ballot stood : Ham, 71; Erwin, 64; Baker, 54. Changes begau and went on rapidly, Bake.-’s votes leav ing him and going to Erwin and Ham The final result was Erwin, 89 ; Ham, 83; Baker, 2*2; Findlay, 2. Mr. Price withdrew the name of Mr. Ba ker. The second ballot resulted in the election ot Mr. Erwin, he receiving 111 votes to 81 for Ham. HUT HOUSE PLANTS AND ANNUAU3. Col. Thomas Hakdenian was unanimously re-elected president of the state agricultural convention. Hou. David E. Butler was elected vice-president from the Ninth Dis trict, and Gen. Wm. M. Browne member of the executive committee. It is still insisted that Mother Ship- ton was right and that the world will close out in November, occupying from the 1st to the 15th to wind its affairs up completely. There is one sustaining idea in this if it’s true, a good many will escape the bleak and wintry weather. Postal savings on star routes. Second Assistant Postmaster-General Elmer reports a net reduction in the star route and steamboat mail-service during the month ot July amounting to $324,664, and that the total amount of savings by reductions and discon tinuances since Mach 4lh is $1,381,. 442. Augusta had a rain and thunder storm Sunday. From the description of the News one might think the city was submerged and numerous people almost drowned, but then, those old fellows know so little of water practi cally and hate it so much that even a good shower seems like a Noah’s flood to them. Tiie local editor of the Griffin News was attacked one night last wetk, while going through a skirt of woods, l>y six robbers dressed in women’s clothes. They got nothing of course, ns the editor was true blue on the score of impecuniosity. If they had known .hu was an editor they would never have troubled him. The Cole charter bill passed the house by a vote of 124 to 25. This will be gratifying to every one who has the true interests of the state at heart. We hope to sec Col. Cole go right ahead with his work, and soon there will be two roads from Macon to Atlanta and two from Atlanta to Rome. There is a prosperous time coming. Georgia's development is scarcely begun. The Finance Committee of the House has reported a bill that has a fair prospect of securing a good ma jority. The bill provides for the erection of a new capitol to cost $1,060,000, the building to be com pleted in five years, at an annual ex- penditure of $200,000. Three com< mission';rs are to ,be elected by the Legislature to superintend the work and make tho contracts. The build ing is to be of brick, granite oc mar ble, and Georgia material is to be used as far as possible- The site for the building is the City llall Park, and.tho work is to commence immedi ntely after the passage of the bill. The commissioners will be under oath and bond, and will each receive annual salary of $1,000. The editor of the Banner has here tofore expressed some doubts as to the advisability of beginning the erection of a new capitol; but a closer investigation of the matter has shown us tbat possibly we were wrong. According to the iniorma- tion which we get—and _it comes di rect from a reliable source—the pres ent building is positively unsafe. Be sides this, it is said to be decidedly inadequate to tho wants of the state. As an illustration of tho last state ment, we understand that for want of committee rooms, several of the com mittees bold their sessions in the pri vate rooms of the members at the hotels ; and for want of other room, some of tho public archives are stored in the water closets. If these things aro true,—and we have no reason to doubt the correctness or reliability of onr information,—then a new capitol is needed, and needed badly. In case the bill passes, there is some reason to believe that the merits of Capt. W. W. Thomas, of Athens, will give him a place on the com mission. He is a very accomplished architect and engineer, 'and possesses tbat integrity of purpose which will insure the carrying out of the law, and the guarding of the interests of tho people. T he nearest star is 18,918,000,000,- 000 miles from us; and Sir John Herschel calculates that if a person stood upon that star and looked to wards our earth, not only would our mighty sun be utterly invisible, but if the sun were so enlarged as to fit the earth’s orbit—tbat is, instead of being 800,000 miles in diameter lie were more than 180,000,000 miles in diam eter—even then that stupendous orbit would be covered with a human hair held 23 feet from the pupil of the eye J From a close |<ersoual investigation, we are prepared to say that Sir Johu is correct, except that be has located that star about 13 miles too fur off THE PENITENTIARY BILL. The bill to provide for the better inspection and management ot the pen itentiary convicts, passed the House yesterday by substitute, by a vote of 97 to 44. The substitute omits the wardens, provided for in the original bill, and calls for the election, by the legislature, of a board of mana gers whose term of office shall be six years. These managers will have power to make all the regulations for the government of convicts, aod the regulations so made will have all the force of law*. For a wilful violation of these laws, convicts shall be taken away from the lessee so violating. The urn relieves the governor and principal keeper of all care of the convicts and abolishes the offices of principal physi cian and principal keeper. These are the main features of the bill. It is a good one, and ought to become a law. As the lessees are supposed to have vested rights, which cannot be interfered with, everything which the power ot the state can do, ought to be done, to prevent inhu manity to the convicts. SPECULATIVE INSURANCE. Five men have already beenhauged iu Pennsylvania foi an insurance mur der, and it seems probable that the gallows will claim another clique of cold blooded conspirators, who are suspected of haviug compassed the death of an old man in order to make available the insurance policies which they had placed upon his life. The circumstances attending the death of Joseph Miller, in Lycoming connty, would not be likely to excite suspicion of foul play were it not that there were policies on his life aggregating nearly $40,000, the son with whom he lived being a beneficiary to the extent of $2,000. This’son is sus pected of being accessory to the mur der. The whole case will depend upon the chemical analysis of the stomach of the deceased and its con tents, and unless this is managed with great care, and by thoroughly compe tent experts, the evidence is never satisfactory nor conclusive. Mr. Miller was 74 years of age, and had arrived at a time of life when sudden death docs not of itself fnrnish the least presumption of unnatural cause. MissSeaqers, fifteen years old, living six miles from Borne, undertook to kindle a fire in the stove by pour ing oil from a can on it. The oil be came ignited, exploding the can and throwing the oil all over the clothing of the girl, which was burned almost entirely from her person. She lived until next day at 12 o’clock, when death came and relieved her suffering. Her father, in attempting to extin- cnish the flames, had his bands ter ribly burned. It seems that people will never bo warned by the fate of others. There are probably a hun dred fires lighted every day with kerosene in Athens. Mr. Editor.—A circular just issued by Hon. W. D. Grant, chief lessee of peniteutiary camp No. 3, contains this exquisite extract: “The hospital *is neatly kept. The windows aud ap proaches to the building filled with hot house plants and annuals is evi dence that the entire comfort of the sick is one of the leading features.” Here is richness! Here is fatnessF Hot House, plants is good, but anim als ! This is too utterly utter !<w£| grim humor of Mr.'Grant blazes o' everything and ^Wpenses a get! heat. Why does not Mr. G., goffiU. one step further ? Why does he n£t name the hot house plants ? Why qut give us the annuals ? Does the convict look upon the exquisite gera nium, the delicate fuchsia or the stately rhododendron ? How pleasant to be sick! How delightful to be transferred from the contemplation of the ragweed and the cockle burC to communion with pot plants and arnus als! Such tenderness, such gentleness is born of the same soil spirit itliat leads these lessees to oppose capital puuishmeut. Give the poot fellows a chance they say ! Put them , in for life ! Let us administer jus tic*, tem pered with mercy. A man syilb a louse upon him should feel licklid when he gazes upon the hot house plants, and lacerated backs cease to athe aud tremble when the eyes are turned full upon the annuals ! These two fea tures must have made a tremendous impression upon the committee. Tli$y are not only there, but “windows and approaches are filled with them.” Probably the best selections trora the maguibcent grounds on Peachtree street. Agaia the circular says, .‘Any practical plan for reformation or moral regeneration of the prisoners will he gladly adopted by company No. 3, but the discoursging fact pre sents itself that after trying many methods in many counties, the work of reforming criminals progresses slowly.” We suppose the hot house plants and annuals are brought in as a last expedient, and the effect has not yet been thoroughly ttsted. Let us hope that these gentle influences will prove more potent than the blood hound, the heavy ljtsh, the lousy bed, working the sick, making a trusty of btm who informs upon complainers. Tho “discouraging fact” that reform ation proceeds slowly ! The ghost that comes up at the banquet! And after so many hard trials for better results! The volum inous crop of little bastards shows the fauliiness ot the system of chaining men and women together, and we hope this is sufficiently tried. Whipping naked women in the pres ence ot men tends to brutalize, fifteen hours of labor a day brings disease ; working the sick produces despair ; the presence of guards more savage than bloodhounds does not elevate the soul; making the “trusty” report the names of those making complaints and then lacerating grumblers will not inspire confidence. The plans hereto fore used remind me of this incident: A king approached one of his subjects. The poor fellow, horror stricken, broke to run. Tho king followed, caught and beat him. “Why do you run’’ he asked ? “Because, sir, I fear you.” “Fear me! Why I want you to love me.” R. P. S.—Hot house plants and annu als will not thrive away down in the Dade county coal mines “a mile be low the ground,” but I suppose arti ficial flowers could be tried. GEORGIA, Cuui County.

In Darlington county, South Caro lina, a party consisting of twenty white men, who had been at work on the public highway, stopped under an oak to rest and shelter themselves from the sun. Clouds were visible at a dis tance, and the rain was falling some miles away, but in tbat immediate lo cality the sun was shining, the sky was clear and nothing indicated the presence of electricity. One of their number bad stepped off a lew yards tor water when suddenly a terrific crash startled him, and turning he be held his companions—some dead, com pletely paralyzed, and others wounded and struggling in the throes ot death. J. M. Mazingo, Rufus Mazingo, Willie Waters and John B. Gailin, were killed outright. These were all young men and recently married. Twelve others were struck and more or less stunned and mutilated, 6ome of them being seriously if not fatally injured. After the clouds had gathered an hour later there was a heavy fall of rain. All around the tree' lay the scattered tools with which the men had been working on the road, and it is possible that tlies6 may have attracted the electricity.
