,i£ Sorgia THURSDAY JULY 9, IMIS. The Nation's Birthdfty. No brighter fourth of July ever dawned upon this repub - lie than her one hundred and ninth aniversary. No doubt many of our people thought of the wondrous blessings Provi- 4 -uce had dispensed us as a natioo. Spread eagle orations are not so common as they were half a century ago. Our work and progress presents more of a business aspect. We hail with gratitude the day that will forever bring to the memory of our people the dec¬ laration of independence. We delight to think of the noble and worthy characters that fig¬ ured in the war of revolution that resulted in breaking the chains of a cruel tyrany and in the establishment of a govern¬ ment of which the world has never beheld an equal. We rejoice to think of those who have poured out their life blood for the redemption of their Lomes and loved ones. With proud hearts and en¬ chanted minds we ‘ trace the history of our nation, But now, casting aside thoughts to us so precious, let us contemplate the present outlook of our re pu blic. Democracy, after more than two decades of humilia¬ tion, now rests quietly in the “White House.” An earnest effort is being made to give us the best possible government. The white winged angel Peace spreads her lilly wings over y all our homes. 1 Thousands of temples dedicated to Jehovah are rising year alter year. Our land is becoming dotted with colleges and universities as the white tents of Israel lined the valleys of the east. Useful in¬ ventions are rapidly increasing Benevolent enterprises aie re¬ ceiving such consideration as in all the history of the past they have not received. Pro¬ hibition threatens the destruc¬ tion of King Alcohol. Cities, towns, villages, country church¬ es, school houses and mountain coves affo’d Sunday school ad¬ vantages. The prospect is our lands will give us bountiful ciops, so that plenty and the peace that abides where plen¬ ty is shall be ours Let us be of the and part of our history m the and labor to make the more glorious. May each ceeding birthday of our nation mark increased prosperity and happiness. May our ment remain unshaken by ed hands, but grow stionger and better even to the in of the millenium. Then all will be well. The new British ministers as a rule are conside a’qly youn¬ ger than their predecessors in office. Lord Salisbury has on¬ ly fifty five years against Mr. Gladstone’s seventy six. The oldest men in the new cabinet aFe Sir Stafford Northcote and Lord John Manners, and they fire each only sixty sev^n, iy hi It-Lord Granville is seventy and Lo: d Selborne seventy three. Lord Roseberry was Mi. Gladstone’s youngest min-, inter, and he is thirty eight, and next to him comes Sir Charles Dilke, forty two; Mr. f itjvelyan, forty seven and Mr. U "fr- •• '•••' V- • 1 idolph Churchill is oply thirty six, Lord George Ham* ilton forty Colonel Stanley for* ty four and Sir Michael Hicks Beach forty eight. Of course the new ministers are largely lacking in experience as well as years, and the infusion of “youg blood” into the govern¬ ment may not prove to be an unmixed blessing. Thomas A Edison is ex peri menting on Erastus Winan’s Staten Island railroad, with what he he calls “grasshopper electricity.” He proposes to telegraph from one moving train to another moving train. The system is similar in some respects to the Phelps induction telegraph, but unlike it in that Mr. Edison proposes to use the rails of the road as the means of conducting the current of electricity. He “jumps” it from one rail to the next; hence the peculiar name which he has given it. A most remarkable case of lightning striking is reported to have occurred near Cisco, Texas. A white man and ne¬ gro were driving cattle, when the fo. mer was struck and kill¬ ed, and the negro was struck on the head, his hat demolish¬ ed, the current running down his back tearing his shirt off, and killing the horse he was riding; the negro himself was only slightly scorched. Objector Holman, of Indi¬ ana, is credited with having more influence in the distribu¬ tion of the patronage in that state than all the rest of the congressional delegation togeth er. The president thinks Hol¬ man is “about the smartest old fellow he has to deal with. Georgia has 143,471 colored voters, the largest number of any of the southern states. Mis sissippi comes next, with 180,- 278; then Virginia, 117,257; South Carolina, 118,883; Ala¬ bama, 118,423; Louisiana, 112, 977; North Carolina, 105,018; Alabama, 38,827, and Missouri 33,042. Three sons aud two daugh¬ ters of General Lee survive him. His sons are farmers in Virgin¬ ia, and his daughters are both great travelers, the elder hav¬ ing explored Australia, Japan, China, India and Egypt, in ad¬ dition to the European circuit of sights. More is required of ladies in society than of young men. A young man need not be be beautiful, need not sing play or say anything intelligent. He may be positively idiotic, and get on well in society, as it is shown in numerous instances It is now said to be a fact of history, that the horse Gen. Edward Pockenham rode in the battle of New Orleans was brought to Hall county, Ga., about 1825 and died near Gainesville in 1830. At Fort Worth, Texas, the other day eleven persons were poisoned by eating canned meats. The meat was put up in lead cases. There are several American engineers in Mexican jails on account of unavoidable acci¬ dents. The fourth of July was cele brated generally throughout the nation. .*»v 1DVI of college atletbi standing, and annc the leading athletes, ffe are the poorest scholars.! Ex-EmpieSs Eugenic raSglg ly wrote to a friend: “I and left alone, the sole remnant ofra shipwreck, which proves how fragile and vain are the gran¬ deurs of this world.” » The Lord Mayor of Dublin refused to allow an address of welcome to the new Lord Lieu¬ tenant of Ireland.
