EDITORIAL NOTES.
-—The Carlersville Free Press thinks
tkere is considerable rottenness in the
Georgia State government.
—That one cent a mile rate given by
the Railroads has saved the Atlanta
Exposition, and paid the roads besides
Cheap passenger fares are beneficial to
both railroads and people.
—The Atlanta Constitution is shoot
Ixg some very mean little paragraphs at
Ool. John Screven, of Savannah That
gentleman’s high charaoter can never
he reached by such puny missiles.
—The Congreis of the United States
net in Washington on Monday last
The Republicans have but a bare ma
jority, and consequently the Democrats
ean prevent any high-banded legisa
tion.
—A negro was brutally murdered in
Terrell county recently by three white
leads incarnate. Our Judges have
their hands full of murder cases, but our
juries seldom ever allow them to pass
sentence upon the criminals
—Col. Marcellus Thornton has
bought the Atlanta Post-Appeal. We
presnmo that it will run in the interest
of the Georgia Republicans. Col
Thornton is a clever man, and wo hate
to see him squander his means on a
daily of the republican ilk in this
State.
KEIFER WINS IN THE RACE FOR
THE SPEAKERSHIP-
—A large party of Saxon immigrants
passed through St. Louis last week
on their way to Arkansas. They formed
the third installment of a colony of
5.000 or 6.000 that is being planted in
the vicinity of Little Rock by a coloni-
cation society in the old country.
—Miss Annio Louisa Cary is men
tioned as the possessor of §450,000—
all earned by her own voice. Among
her treasures is one of ilie most per
fect emeralds in the world. It weighs
23 carats, and is valued at §50,000. It
waa bought at the sale of Queen Isa
bella’s jewels in Paris.
—We are delighted to bo able to
state to our readers this week, that after
a thorough investigation of the case
against the Jones Bros., charged with
burning the town of Camilla, by the
Grand Jury recently in session at that
place, no bill was found and the defend
ants were fully exonerated.
—The devotion of the Republicans
for the negro has been again manifest
ed. Rainey, the colored Republican of
South Carolina, ran in the Republican
caucus Saturday for tbe nomination as
Clerk of tbe House against McPherson
(white). Result of first ballot; Mc
Pherson 92, Rainey 44, rest scattering.”
Rainey retires disgusted.
—Hon. Alex. H. Stephens is report
ed very Jill in Washington. lie will
doubtless recover, for the reason that
Death has been sporting with him for
the last seventy years. Our opinion is
that Mr. Stephens will live to be 110
years old, and then blow away. lie is
the most remarkable man physically the
19th century has produced,
—Coming on the improbable rumor
that Mr. Davis is to be succeeded in
the Presidency pro tern, of the Senate
by a conservative Republican,” the
New York World asks, very pertinent-
ly, “What is a conservative Republi
can 7” and adds: “In modern times
the only Republican Senator that ever
hesitated when there was a difficulty
between his conscience and the caucuses
was General Burnside, and he is dead.”
—Evidently some of our contempor
aries are not acquainted with the follow
ing remarks of the late Horace Greely ;
“There is nothing easier than to edit a
blackguard papor and nothing more
difficult than to get up a newspaper free
from foulness and blackguardism. Fish-
women and barroom loafers are skilled
in the art of bandying epithets and be
spattering each other with dirty words.
It requires no brains to do this, but it
does require both heart and brains to
print a paper that a decent man or
woman ean read without a blush.”
—During the trip of a Potuguese
vessel from Rio Janeiro to New York
this month she encountered a fierce
storm. The tips of the yards almost
-touched the waves. About 7 o’clock
on the morning of the 11th, a tremen.
dous sea struck her amidsbip from the
westward side. It swept the deck of
every loose object and carried three
men from the rigging, in which they
were clinging. The men were borne
some twenty feet from the vessel, but
miraculously enough, the next mass of
water moved from the leeward and land
ed all three on deck, safe and sound.
Rainey Shelved—McPherson Back at
The Clerk s Crih—The Old .Officers
Renominated by the Democrats—
Hedging on the Tariff
Washington, December 3.—Seventeen out
of eighteen members of the {Pennsylvania
delegation held a conferonce this morning,
at which, after some discussion, all the mem
bers present agreed to vote for Genera
Keifer as Speaker. Tbe absentee was Mr.
Baynes, who sent word that he will vote
for Mr. Hiscock. It was also determined
by the seventeen members to support Wm.
Bunn, ex-Register Willis of Philadelphia,
fqr election as “ergeant-at-Arms. Five of
the members announced themselves in favor
of Edward McPherson for the position of
Clerk of the IIouso, but it was finally de
cided that the delegation which met make
an effort to elect any Pennsylvania man to
that office, but favor its being given to some
New Yorker, probably Mr. Johnson.- The
result of the Pennsylvania conference is gen
erally regarded as highly favoraDle to the
prospects of Keifer’s success, but the other
prominent candidates still profess undimin
ished confidence. It was announced that
Mr: Klein’s name had been withdrawn from
the list of candidates for the office of Clerk.
THE REPUBLICAN caucus.
The Republican members elect assembled
at noon lo.day in the hall of the House of
Representatives for the purpose of nomi
nating candidates to fill the various elective
offices. Jay Hubbcll, of Michigan, called
tbe caucus to order shoitiy after 12 o’clock
Robeson, of New Jersey, was then selected
as chairman of the caucus, Mills, of Penn
sylvania, as Secretary, and McCook, of New
York, Updegraff, of Iowa, and McClure, of
Ohio, as Assistant Secretaries and Tellers.
A roll call was responded to by 147 repre
sentatives elect, including J. Hyatt Smith,
of New York, and Mr. John D. White, of
Kentucky. The one hundred and fifty-
sixth regular Republican was absent. Nom
inations for the Speakership were declared
to be in order and candidates were placed
in nomination as follows: Frank Hiscock,
of New York, by Representative- Gamp, of
New York; James W. Keifer, of Ohio, by
Representative Ilazelton, of Wisconsin; Jno.
A- Kasson, of Iowa, by Cannon, of Illinois;
Mark II. Dunnell, of Minnesota, by Strait,
of Minnesota; Godlovc S. Orth, by Calkins;
J. C. Burrows, of Michigan, by Horr, of
Michigan, and Thomas B. Reed, of Maine,
by Lindsey, of Maine. A motion was made
and advocated briefly by Bayne, of Penn
sylvania, that the voting be viva voce, but,
this was voted down, and the balloting was
then proceeded with, resulting as follows:
Keifer 52, Hiscock 44, Kasson 15, Reed 13,
Burrows 10, Orth 8, Dunnell 4; total 14G;
necessary to a choice 74.
Second ballot—Keifer 55, Hiscock 41,
Kasson 16, Reed 12, Burrows 10, Orth 8,
Dunnell 3; total 145.
The ballotting continued without result
until the lfith ballot, when Kiefer received
03 votes and the caucus nomination. He
gained 16 from Hiscock, 10 from Burrowa,
and 6 from Kasson.
McPherson was nominated for Clerk on
the first ballot by a vote of 92. against 44
for Rainey, and the rest scattering.
Col. Geo. W. Hooker, of Vermont, late
Assistant Secretary of the National Itepub.,
lican Committee, was nominated for Ser-
geant-ut-Arms en the first ballot, receiving
eighty votes.
The first ballot for Doorkeeper resulted
n tbe choice of Walter P. Brownlow, of
Tennesce, nephew of Parson Brownlow.
Captain Harry Sherwood, of Michigan,
was nominated for Postmaster by acclama
tion, and Rev. Frederick D. Power, pastor
of tbe Campbellite Church, Washington,
was selected as Chaplain of the House.
Resolutions were adopted that the six
maimed Union soldiers now employed in
the House be retained, unless dismissed for
cause. Three of these are Democrats and
three Republicans.
THE DEMOCRATIC rROORAMHE.
Washington, December 4.—After the
adjournment of the Republican caucus last
evening, the Democratic members elect as
sembled in the same hall and organized
their caucus for the ensuing Congress, by
the re-election of Representative House, of
Tennesee, as Chairman, and Messrs. Frost,
of Missouri, and Welborn, of Texas, as Sec
retaries. Representative Proctor Knott,
of Kentucky, then offered a resolution en
dorsing the declaration of the Democratic
National Convention of 1876 and 1880, his
supposed objeet being to put the Demo
cratic members on record in favor ef the
plank indorsing a tariff for revenue only,
which, if it prevented the complimentary
nomination of Speaker Randall, would serve
as a rebuke. The resolution was supported
by Representatives Knott, of Kentucky, and
Reagan, of Texas, and opposed by Repre
sentatives Hammond, of Georgia, McLaine,
of Maryland, Hooker, of Mississippi, and
Herbert, of Alabama. Representative
Hooker moved to indefinitely postpono the
consideration of the resolution, and
his motion was carried—ayes 63, nays 42.
Represen.stive McKenna, of West Vir
ginia, then moved that the caucus indorse
and put in nomination as the '■audidates
of the Democrats all the officers of the
last House, and the motiou was carried
viva voce without dissent. The caucus
then adjourned subject to the call of tho
chairman. -The impression prevails to
night that tbe organization of the House
will be considerably delayed to morrow by
objections to the swearing in of the hold
ers of credentials from several Southern
districts and by a threatened contest in
regard to the admission of Delegate
Cannon, of Utah. It is impossible to
predict safely how long such delays may
continue, but many well informed persons
are of the opinion that the House will be
read}’ to proceed to the election oi officers
early in the afternoon, in which event it is
expected that the Republican nominees
will probable receive the requisite
majority' vote, and the president’s message
will sent in before to morrow’s adiourn
meat
Rainey’s Rajection.
The value of Radical professions for
the colored mau and brother was con
clusively settled in the caucus on Sat
urday when McPherson, a veritable
party hack, was given the Clerkship of
the House over Rainey, the colored ex-
Congressman from South Carolina.
Two years ago, when there was no pos
sibility of Rainey’s election, he was
given the barren honcr of the Radical
nomination for tbe same position, and
the organs vied with each other in the
praise of the performance. On Satur
day, when a nomination was equivalent
to election, Rainey was coolly slaught
ered.
True, a fair proportion of votes were
cast for him and he was let down gent
ly, but it would have been far more hon
est to have told him emphatically that
the party had no use for him, which
was the secret of the matter. The par
ty has put itself squarely on the record
in rejocting a man who two years ago
was its unanimous choice for the high
station of clerk of the lower house of
Congress. His ability was conceded,
and if he deserved the place when he
could not get it, he certainly merited it
when the party could have raised him
to it. He is the same Rainey now as
then, and the party is the same but on
Saturday it was supplied with a fulj
hand and played it, while two years ago
it was short and played the Rainey
trick for all it was worth.
We are sorry for Rainey, but he
should have been wiser. To his peo-
plo bis cruel rejection is a valuable
lesson. For, if a representative colored
man, abundantly qualified for the posi
tion he seeks, and backed by a previous
flattering endorsement, is to bo set aside
that a veteran at the crib may be pro
vided for, it is time for the colored
voters to weigh the cost of a devotion
that is used for selfish ends in the haz
ards of political warfare, but ignored in
the bestowal of the rewards of its vict
ories.—Savannah Sews.
Whv Gen- Sherman was not Ban-
quetted in Atlanta-
It is a remarkable fact that while the
male natives have ceased to bear anL
mously toward the grim old warrior
who left a black souvenir in Georgia
“forty miles wide and three hundred
long,” the women, on the contrary, will
never forget that Sherman burned the!"
homes, and they uniformly refuse to
regard him as anything else than an in
vader and a despoiler. Speaking to
some southern ladies about Sherman, a
few days ago, they said they never for
gave him, and Would not permit him to
be feted here if they could prevent it.
“Why,’’ said one, “when he came
south before, and was feasted here,
there were women at the banquet table
who wished every driuk he took could
be transformed into poison ; and others
while lending their presence as a mat
er of necessity, hid beneath the guise
of politeness a hatred which boded no
good for the destroyer of their homes.”
I have found that this sentiment still
exists here very largely among the
women of Georgia, and if report be
correct, it was a potenial agency in in
fluencing a changing of programme on
Tuesday. A committee of citizens
proposed to honor the general of the
army with a banquet, but current ru
mor has it that the members of the
committee were informed that it would
bo distasteful to some, and that a num
ber of ladies visited a merchant who
was on tbe committee, and warned him
not to give the banquet or they would
withdraw their patronage. I give this
as I get it, and one corroborative fact
is present in the absence of the banquet.
— Cincinnatti Commercial.
God bless cur noble women. Our
men may bow the knee to Baal, and
kiss the hand that smites for a mess of
official pottage, but our women will
train their children like old Hamilcar
did his scds Hannibal and Hasdrubal, to
forever hate the blood bounds and in
cendiaries who destroyed their homes
during the war, and tried to degrade
the manhood of our soldiers when the
struggle was over. The brave and
honorable opponent our women would
help to crown with the laurel, but they
Lave nothing bat scorn for the Attillas
and the Alvas.
Republican Senators must view with
keen interest the Senatorial contest in
Virginia, Should the successful can
didate be as hard in driving bargains as
Mabone, Republican seekers of State
office will henceforth stand no chance.
! Mahcne alone claimed about one-half
of the patronage. With a colleague he
will take the rest. It would be a funny
spectacle to sea thirty odd Senators led
around by two; but the Republican
Senators will be in a minority if they
don’t submit, and what are they going
to do about it ?—New York Sun.
Guiteau has some smart points in Lis
published defense. He narrowly escaped
being a notable man for composition and
oratory. Here is a gem from ills collec
tion that ought to be preserved for refer
ence: "I appeal to the president of the
United States for justice. Iam the man
that made him president. Without my
inspiration he was a political cipher,
without power or importance."
fimall-Pox In tlie .’nails
Washington, November 28.—la con
sequence of alarm caused in some por
tioos of the country by the reported
spreading of small pox. Acting Postmas
ter General Hatton lias to-day issued the
following order:
Where the health officers of a village,
town or city, by official action declare
that mail matter from any other village,
town or city is liable to communicate a
contagious "disease’ which at the time is
prevailing in the place whose maii it is
thus sought to quarantine, and such
health officers shall furnish to the post
master a certified copy of sueh declara
tion, it shall be the duty of said postmas
ter to refuse to accept said mail matter
from any carrier or maii messenger, and
he shall furnish such carrier or messenger
with a copv of said declaration to be
delivered by him to the office thus quar
antined. with the mail matter so refused,
and the facts shall at once be reported to
the first assistant postmaster general.
In the absence of board of health officers
the declaration of a regular county or city
medical society may be accepted, and
failing such organization, the opinions of
such physicians as the postmaster may
regard as most reliable may be acted upon.
Tho mail returned shall be held until the
prohibition is removed, and shall, after
being properly fumigated under direction
of the medical authorities, be forwarded to
the place of it3 original destination.
There is little hope for a republican
form of government in Rhode Island,
but the oligarchy which rules that State
is making a little progress in the right
direction. It is actually considering
the proposition to allow honorably dis
charged Union soldiers to vote at elec
tions. oven if they do not own real
estate. The time may yet come when
a well-behaved and intelligent foreign-
born citizen of Rhode Island will have
the rights and privileges enjoyed by a
rascally and ignorant native-born one.

looking at it.
The supreme court of Tenuessee has
decided that the law of that state provid

unconstitutional. This decision will em
power every city in the state to assess
railroad property as private property, and
to collect back taxes since 1875 at such an
assessment.

Dr. J. Bbadpield—Sir : My daughter
has been suffering for many years witli that
dreadful affliction known as Female Disease,
which has cost me many dollars, and not
withstanding I had the best medical attend*
ance, could not find relief. I have used
many other kinds of medicine without any
effect. I had juet about given her up, was
out cf heart, but happened in the store of
W, W. Eckler several weeks since, and he
knows of my daughter’s affliction pursuaded
me to try a bottle of your Female Regulator.
She began to improve at once. I was so de
lighted with its effect that I bought several
more bottles. *
The price, §1,50 a bottle, seemed to be
very high at first, but I now think it the
cheapest preparation on the globe and
knowing what I do about it, if to-day one of
my family was suffering with that awful
disease I weuld have it if it cost $50 a bottle,
