"Will Blaine step down and out? That’s the question of the hour. The oldest "nhabitant is being in terviewed on the subject of drouths. The oldest inhabitant never fails to express himself on the weather. A “woman’s exchange” lias been cstabliseed at Emporia. It is doubt ful whether an experiment of that kind will work in a town where every woman turns up her nose at everv other woman’s cookiug. If the Alliance will teach farmers to become independent, by making their own supplies, their order will receive the endorsement of every man, woman and child in the Uditcd States. Chicago, having just gone through the excitement of the famous Carter divorce case, is now wrought up over the murder of Dr. Cronin. His body was found in one of the manholes of the city. ■— ••• —■ A daughter of General E. Kirby Smith, eloped with a student at Sewan- neo, Tenn., the other day. She was engaged, nnd was to have been mar ried, to Mr Boylstou, a wealthy resi dent of Atlanta, within a couple of weeks. The State undertakers will hold their annual convention next week in Savannah. There is to be an excur sion to Tybee, arid everything will be done to lighten the pall of such a con vocation. It will be as cheerful a" possible under the circumstances.—Ex. It cropped out at the road congress, if the sentiment of that body is a fair reflex of public sentiment, that the people arc in favor of working the public roads of the state with the peu itentinry convicts. And it is lair to presume that the delegates expressed the views of their constituents. There are difficulties in the way, but these may be overcome. Hon. Fleming G. DuBignon, presi dent of the Georgia Senate, said to a reporter in Nashville a few days ago that the overwhelming sentiment :n Georgia is for tariff reform, aud that Mr. Cleveland will be the favorite of the Georgia democracy for the presi dential nomination 1892.—Ex. Grover Cleveland is undoubtedly the choice of the Georgia democracy. There is no reason why farming, properly conducted should not pay. ‘ Don’t buy on credit; do your farming at home instead ot in town, and plant what you'need to live on, and any industrious fa rifle r who knows how to farm can make money in Richmond county. The above from a practical farmer in Richmond county should commend itself to every farmer in the state. The greatest gathering of Sunday school men ever had will be seen in London in July. The World’s Sunday school convention will assemble in that city July a. Very low rates have been secured for persons in the United States who wish to attend. The trip from New York to London and return, including railroad fare, board at a good hotel during the convention and inci dentals will cost only from $160 to $S20, according to accommodations. The trip will occupy about a month. The Bothnia, which is to carry the excursion, will sail June 19. Watering Places, Pamphlets and g Pictures. Did you ever pick up and study n -educlivc pamphlet issued by some iroprietor of a watering place? They usually appear about this season ot he yeai. They are a study. The pictures and print are designed to fas- cinnte and inveigle. A glance at one ind you seem to be transported from the blistering heats of the semi-tropics, 'o the cool shades of some sequestered nook, where the mercury is a stranger above fifty. One of those “etticiu” pamphlets lies before us, as we write with the thermometer in the neighbor hood of 90. Let us turn its leaves and see what it contains. The first thing which strikes us is the cut of tbe main building, with a long piazza. Promenading on the piazza we see a thin legged young man nnd a young woman with a regulation bustle. They are evidently engaged or will ho before the season is over. Mountains arc seen in the back gnund, while the grateful shade of spreading trees throw their noonday shadows athwart the pathway of the couple coming from the "wonderful mineral spring.” The young man is carrying a pitcher of this all curing water to a gouty, rich old uncle who is coufined to his room. The young man would not he carrying this pitcherof water to his uncle were lie not gouty and—rich. And the young lady would not be so sweet on the young man were it not for the rich uncle mentioned. But the young man seems to wear a far off look in his left eye, which might be interpreted to signify that he is, even then, think ing of some other girl. However, the girl mav land him in the end. There’s no telling, A ha}c, hearty, robust man is seen climbing a precipitous ridge. He could scarcely walk (so the landlord will tell you) when he first arrived. It is geneially supposed that the man is being boarded free as an advertise ment. A cow is seen grazing, in a small cnclosuic, without a vestige of grass. She does not look like a Jersey, though the pamplct says “guests are supplied with the purest Jersey milly from the proprietors own dairy.” This may he so, or it may not be so. • Ap pearances are very deceptive, you know. You cannot see the pure air, though it is said to be the purest in the universe, and the most of it to the square yard. A croquet gr >und, with two dudes aud two lad'es engaged in a game of —flirtation, is seen. The ladies show alarming systoms of well developed cases of the Grecian Bend. They evidently have it bad. The dudps may, possibly, dcvclon into respect* able members of society—but this is doubtful. The chances are not favor able for this consummation. This is the fifth season out, of one of the young ladies. She is growing desparate and may marry the cheapest dude. A cynical bachelor is swinging in a hammock watching the game. A match making mother is seen on a rustic seat watching young Fitznoodle, who is rending Byron to her daughter in a latticed summer house. There arc other pictures of groupes and parties, outlined in-the dim per spective. It is difficult to determine tlic sex, thougli it is likely that there are males and females included ; this is generally the case at watering places. On another page is found the analysis of the water. It is said to cure all th-. ills which human flesh is heir to. The fare is said to be excellent, embracing everything to be had in the market. (There is not a market within thirty-two miles of the place.) The waiters arc represented to be both polite and attentive—murk you, are “represented to be.” A “tip” will bring one of them back from the aromatic recesses of the kitchen— which adjoins the “spacious” dining room—in something lees than one hour aud seventeen miuutcs. Such are some of the feauturcs in the pamphlet before us. Tne proprietor may have a keg of nails in the bottom of the spring. Bit it is out of sight. Anyhow you can taste the iron in the water. And iron is just what you need to build the system up. Pack your grip, go to a watering place, wander around in the woods, gathcr’a crop of red bugs, and you may be happy yet. The festive red bug lietli in his native lair, and awaiteth for his victim. He is no respecter of persons, age, sex or previous condition. He gets there, all the same. And his staying quali ties are beyond dispute. ^ Lee’s Eloquence. - Gen. FitzLec delivered au address a day or two since at the unveiling of a monument to the Confederate dead of Alexandria, Va.,‘ Atuoug other tilings, lie said: The ceremonies by northern organ izations, in honor of devotion to the union of states by federal’soldiers, are right and proper, and celebrations in ihe south, by southern soldiers in honor of the memory of those who died in defense of their states, their homes and their people, should be equally recognized as a merited trib ute to their valor and in no sense in consistent with all the responsibilities and duties that now devolve upon the states, and individuals with equal force. With pride in the history ot the whole country, I shall speak to you to-day as one of its parts, an inhabi tant of the state that sought, in 1861, It establish with sympathetic sister states another confederacy on this continent, mid in doing so I feel your heart beat in unison witli mine when I exclaim in the glowing words of au Irish patriot: “Do you ask me, my lords, if in my lifetime if I have thought any treason or done any crime that should call to my cheek, as J. stand here, the hot blush of shame, or the paleness of fear? Though I stood on my grave to receive my death biow, before God and mankind, 1 would answer no.” Suwanee River. It will bo remembered that a short time ago Col. Jeff Lauc, general man ager of the Georgia Southern and. Florida railroad, offered 850 as a prize for the best verse to close the soug, “Ole Folks at Home.” The time for awarding the prize is July 1, and Col. Lnue will receive contributions up to that date. He lias already re ceived about thirty specimens, and some contributors have sent three or four verses. Col. Lane docs uot limit the contestants. Any one may sgud as many verses as they please, but he ouly wants one. That is, the contestant may run in as may styles as he pleases, blit the oue that takes the prize must round off the song the best and sing the praises of the Su wanee,River route.—Telegraph. Here’s a chance for some aspiriug, perspiring poet. Sail in. President Harrison’s benevolence seems to be ns boundless as the patri. otism of the famous humorist who an nounced liiH williugness to scud all his wife’s male relatives t > the war. The President's family designs arc of a kindly character and they have al ready extended to three beneficiaries. Brother Carter Harrison has been made marshal of the Middle Tennes see district, and Scott, who has the honor to he the brother of Mrs. Harri son, has been ensconced in the soft berth of superintendent of the In- dinuapolis public buildings, nnd Inst, but not least, the Saunders family comes in for its share of official honors nnd lucre. The father-in law of Mr. Russell Harrison, a venerable old gen tleman, who, since lie failed of re-elec tion to the United States Senate, has been out of a job, hail to he provided for, and accordingly jUr. Saunders is named as a member of the Utah com mission. The most important work of a Utah commissioner is to draw 85,000 a year out of the United States treasury. The president lias done fairly well for his kinsfolks for the first two months of his udmiuistra- tiou. He lias many mouths to reign yet, and his family connections’ name is legiou. British Fort on our Border. Man Francisco Standard. The easy indifference which marks the attitude ot the United States tow ards all other countries is well illustra ted by the apparent lack of interest in Washington in the building up o! a great British fort on Vancouver's Isl and. \ resident of Olympia. Wash ington Territory, said in this city the other day: “A very small proportion of the people of this country are aware that the strongest fort on the American continent is now building on the Pacific coast. When completed it will rank next 10 Gibraltar among the world’s fortifications. It commands the en trance at Puget sound, the second port of entry on the Pacific coast, and ope of the most important in the Unit ed States. The British will soon he able to close this port at anv moment. No other nation in the world would permit the building of the gr<*at fort to intimidate a peaceful neighbor. U ncle Sam could lay out Johnny Bull with one hand tied behind hm. Why, we’d just step across that line and take that tort in case of war; that’s what we’d do. A Good Suggestion. It is settled that the beautiful arch near Washington Park, New York un der which the procession passed at the recent centennial celebration, is to be preserved in some permanent form 'as a memorial of an era in our history. The Charleston News amd Courier makes a good suggestion in reference to the construction of this memorial arch. Instead of building it of marble; as has been intended, the proposal bv the News and Courier is to invite each of ihe original thirteen stales to con tribute flier native stone for the work. Our contemporary s&vs: “These stones, fitly joined together, would symbolize the union as it was and as it is, and thus the arch would be made ' a national monument to perpetuate the national glory.” Every one of the original states is rich in deposits of stone and several otfthem have many varieties ot marble and granite. For a memo rial representing the beginning ot a new century of national life, and de signed 10 stand a long time, granite is decidedly preferable to marble by reason of its slower decay. We have no doubt but that Georgia would en gage in such an appropriate work as the construction of this patriotic arch. All the states, which established this government ought to be represented in this memorial — Telegraph. Motes for Publication, Name: II. Clecker; residence: Elm street, Dallas, Texas; occupation: bar her; statement April 10, 1889: rfad ulcerated sore throat several years; could not talk loud enough or plain enough to be understood by my wife and family. In the efforcto drink wa ter or coffee it would run out of my nose. My tonsils were eaten away by the ulcer. I took a good many reme dies. Potash and mercury mixtures greatly impaired my digestion. I finally abandoned all other treatment and began Swift’s Specific, and a few bottles cured me sound and well— voice recovered, health made good. This was several years ago, and have had no sign of any return of the dis ease. TWO BOTTLES. Two bottles of Swift’s Specific cured me of a bad condition ot my blood, trom which l had suffered for 18 mos I had blotches and sores which were painful and troublesome.
