\ NO MAILS YET- Railroad Officials Cannot Say When Northern Travel Will Open. The last northern mnil lor Savan nah reached here Saturday. When the Seaboard auil Roanoke reported a washout uear Portsmouth yesterday, the only route by which the Atlantic Coast Line could reach New York was obstructed. Travel from Savan nah to New York is blockaded and discontinued at Weldon, where the Seaboard and Roanoke touches the Atlantic Const Line. Between Wel don and Richmond the) Petersburg bridge is washed away. It was over 200 feet span, and sometime will be consumed in rebuilding it. A num Ircr of other washouts have occurred between Weldon and Richmond, and extensive washouts are reported on the Richmond and Fredericksburg road, between Richmond and Quanti co. Some time will be required tc put the line in shape. Supt. Fleming, of the Savannah, Florida and Wes tern railway, received the following dispatch yesterday from Assistant General Manager j. R. Kenly, of the Atlantic Coast Line railway: Wilmington, N. C., June 4,1S8!I, To R. G. Fleming: I have just been advised that Sea board* and Roanoke railway is im passible on account of high water at Nottaway river. No serious damage has been done ns yet, and I do not think any will occur. I hope the in terruption is only temporary, and that they will be running through within twenty-four or forty-eight hours. We have now no connection north of Weldon.- Our freight and passenger department is advised, J. It. Kenly, Assistant Gen. Manager A. C. Line The Savannah, Florida & Western officials have instructed ajl the points north of Savannah not to receive ship ments for the north except upon con dition that it be turned over to the Ocean Steamship upon arrival in Sa vannah. Considerable freight is being shipped this way. It is inferred, from the telegram received by Supt.. Flem ing from Assistant General Manager Kenly, of the Atlantic Coast Line that the Seaboard & Roanoke railway will be again resorted to for a route north before the lines directly con necting the Atlantic Coast Line with New York are repaired and passable. In consequence ot these washouts all through travel has been interrupted, and no northern mails have been re ceived here this week. Southern Express Agent Cooper said yesterday that all express matter for the north is going by the Ocean Steam ship Company. It is likely that many days will be required to repair the track, so that travel can be resumed. Savannah News. Souio weeks ago M. l’astcur, the great French scientist, said that, there was no efficacy in a mad stone, but he probably did not expect everybody to believe him, or, it he did, he ex pected more than he had a right to expect. The mad stone is still being applied to persons bitten by animals affected with hydrophobia. One of the latest cases is that of an Indiana man, who sent to Kentucky for a mad stone, which was applied to the wound; and at last accounts it was said to have drawn most of the poisou from it. The belief in the virtue of the mad stone is strong, although it hasn’t much to rest upon. The losses by fire in this country in 1888 were nearly $i,000,000 less than in 1887. For some years the average annual loss has been about $110.- 000,000 It is stated that most of the fires in the south last year were attributed to incendiarism. Prob ably this is also true with respect to those in the north. While it may not be true that most of the fires in this country are of incendiary origin, it is a fact that most of them are thought to be. Georgia is an agricultural empire with vast resources. Her sons should honor the old commonwealth by dev eloping these resources themselves, •na not let their heritage pass into the hands of strangers.—Southern Culti vator. “WIIAT MEDICINES ARE ItlOST CALLED FOR?” asked thn reporter of an old druggist. “ Dr. Pierce’H preparations,” ho replied.
