JUNE 11, 1889 Senator JSrown is still improving. Jeff Davis celebrated his 81st birth day on the 3rd inst. May his days he long in the land. A big stock ot pea nuts is being accumulated in Atlanta. The legis lature will soon meet. It is said that Buffalo Bill is a big ger man in Paris than Whitelaw Reid. William Buffalo is making his mark in Y urrup. Georgia will pay, this year, to wounded cx-joufederates, •8160,000. Frothy Foraker wtll-jilense make a note of this, \ - ’ ' The Constitution favors Cleveland as a candidate in 1892, instead of Randall. That astute journal ac knowledges that Randall could not he nominated. Nashville had atl earthquake the other day. And yefc^ashyille stands on a firm foundation—the entire city rests on a bed of rock. But earth quakes are no respecter of rock foun dations. Savannah is redoubling her efforts to raise the 850,000 necessary to in sure the building of the Savannah, Americus apd Montgomery road. The indications 'ale now that the amount will betorthcoruing. The postmaster at Adel, Ga., has in his possession a diamond about as big as a goose egg. He found it in a fence corner on liiB farm some time ago. The Czar of Russia and a Geor gia editor arc bidding for it. It is thought the newspaper man will get it. qf, ,j>areon Jasper ^Solomon-\vai In the lanj ■“the world i a little off when he said there was nothing new under the sun. Edison would have disabused the wise man’s mind by demonstrating new wonders in electricity, while the hundred thousand and one new inventions of the present day would have knocked the assertion into pi. President Donaldson, ot the Bain- bridge, Cuthhert and Columbus road, has assured the citizens of Ba nbridge that the road will be built at once from Bainbridge to Cuthbert, if the citizens will subscribe $20,000, to be paid when the road is completed. And Bain bridge will raise the money. They would be acting very toolishly if they did not. The road will be extended westward from Cuthhert to Columbus and southward to Quincy or Tallahas see. It gives us pleasure to testify here to the excellent work being done on the Constitution by Mr. M. Folsom To whatever class of work he is assigned —wherever he is assigned—he fully maintains the expectations of his friends who have observantly lollowed his brilliant career. There is a great deal of come-out in this young man— and much has already come. The above compliment to a wire- grass boy, in the Constitution, will be fully appreciated by Montgomery Fol som’s south Georgia friends. Folsom started in at the bottom of the ladder, but be is in sight of the top round. And be will get there. The writer has watched his course with interest and wishes for him both fame and for- Melon Rates. South .Georgia-is deeply interested in the question of melon and fruit rates. ^It jvds hoped and expected that the roads would give growers a living rate this year. The following, from the News and Advertiser,Albany, is an eye opener: The melon growers have been lay ing the flattering unction to their souls that the rates for the near season would be a great reduction on those that were in force last season, and their hopes and expectations of better returns have been raised in proportion to the sup posed reduction. But alas! a comparison of the rates promulgated for the present season and those in force last year will partly de stroy the delusion by discovering the following facts: rst. The rates to points south of the Ohio and east ot the Mississippi rivers, have been reduced in accordance with the promises of the southern roads and requirements ot the Georgia Railroad Commission. ad. The rates north of the Ohio and west ot the Mississippi have been ad- vanced fully 50 per cent., so that the reduction in the through rates to those points amounts to only 6 per cent., when, if there had been no increase, it would have been 18 per cent. This will appear plainly from the following tablulated statement with elucidation: ALBANY TO— 1888 1889 Chicago lit 75 104 20 Cleveland, U 1U5 75 00 40 Kansas Citv 120 05 112 80 Lima, O..-. 00 75 02 20 Dayton, 0 101 20 81) 20 Jackson, Mich 100 25 101 80 Cincinnati, 0 80 20 08 20 Louisville, Ky 80 20 <38 10 It is whispered that a prominent southern line has been dickering with the roads north ot the Ohio, with a view to sharing in the advance. If such is the case a mild case of boy cotting would be in order. Items from the Augusta Chronicle: Thn Savannah News believes if the Legislature should transact its busi uess this summer aud promptly ad journ it would create a sensation. The News is working iu a barren field tor a sensation. Captain W. H. Harrison, who is in charge of the Georgia Pension Office, states that the pension roll numbers 2356 old soldiers, and they have been paid to date, as allowed for the cur- reut.year, 8147,000. One of the unfavorable signs is the number of large rewards that the Governor is obliged to offer for the capture of criminals in different parts of the State. Is the local constabulary growing inefficient? President P. J. Berckmans lias an nounced that the Guorgia Hoiticultu- ml Society will meet this year at Griffin, holding a three days’ session, from July 31st to August 2d. Griffin will have a good chance at that time to show off her experimental station. Governor Gordon, by the way, goes into ecstacies over the Griffin farm. Pauls, June 8.—A violent shock of earthquake occurred to-day at Brest. Rome, June 8.—The congregation of cardinals to he held next week will discuss the question whether the pope should leave Rome. , New Bedford, Mass., June 8.—A distinct shock of earthquake was felt iu this city at 10:35 this forenoon, the wave being from west to cast or a little southeast.' Athens, Ga., June 8.—Dr. A. AJ Lipscomb, of this city, ex-chancellor of the University of Georgia, lias de cided to accompany a party which leaves here to-morrow morning for the Paris exposition. The doctor has been in very feeble health for some time, but his physician thinks the trip will greatly benefit him. London, June 8.—Tile Berlin cor respondent of the Times says: “The American and English delegates to the Samoan conference are still wait ing for the necessary powers for final conference. It is evident that Amer ica is discontented with some points, and more committee work is not un likely.” Capt. VV. D. Dixon, a prominent undertaker, of Savannah, has been elected vice-president of the Centers, a base ball club of the Forest city. As there is great rivalry among the various amateur clubs in Savannah V P. Dickson has adopted a novel mode of stimulating the Centers. He offers two prizes for those who make the best runs: A fine metallic burying case, and a handsome tombstone with raised letter^ The lucky winner will be reidy for burial. Well, a metallic case is a very good place for a young man who can’t talk anything but base ball. The New Republican Motto. Springfield Republican. How would this jfo for a campaign banner for 1892? writes a reader from New York: “A public office is a fam ily roost.” Some Plain Talk. The New York Herald contains a communication from Mr. William J. Griffiu, a resident of Elizabeth, N. J., showing whv Southern protectionists place the race issue before the tariff question, and why men who oppose the economic policy of the Democrat ic pnrty still repudiate Republicanism and all that it implies. High above the question of tariff; stys this writer, ranks the question of self-respect and self government. The South lias no prejudice against the North for the part it took in the emancipation of the negro. It has no enmity against the negro himself as a laborer and a citizen. But it has unalterable hostility to that party which has endeavored to legislate the negro into supremacy at the South; to take the control of public offices from the hands of the whites and give it to the blacks; to reverse the civilization of this section and.to place the peo ple under a ban of perpetual recon struction. Thn history of Republi canism has been one of hostility to the South. And yet Northern men and some Northern papers, like the Herald, affect surprise- that Southern men of protection sentiment do not become Republicans. This correspon dent informs the Republican party that it may just as well try to' legis late Calfornia into Chinese control, or the Western Territories into Indian governments, as to place the South Atlantic seaboard, like Hayti, under negro rule. The whites must rule the blacks or th* blacks will rule the whites. This is about the size of it. Millions are spent to put men in office in the Northern States, aud schemes with “blocks of five” arc engineered to wheedle doubtful States into column; but when Southern men overcome the black ballot by means of legislation or otherwise, the pat ty of “high moral ideas” becomes shocked. The South has turned a deaf car, and always will turn it, to the allurements of men who promise as the price of party affiliation, Congressional votes and negro supremacy, new industries and material wealth. Self-respect and race pride cannot be subverted along these lines' The Almighty, in His infinite wisdom, has stamped the races with-inequality; nan, in his in finite ability but infinite self-conceit, cannot legislate them into equality. The Northern people have not shown themselves more forbearing toward the colored people where they exist in large numbers or become trouble some in Northern communities. Mr. Griffin puts the Puritan ele ment in the North and West on no tice that the old trait ot knowiug what is best for other p:ople, and of insisting upon an acceptance of their own policy, is an error which had best be abandoned. Mr. Griffin has made out a strong case. He is entirely right when lie says that there is no hostility among the whites towards the negro as a class. The best element of the South recognizes that there is no portentous race issue before us; that shotguns and swindling arc not agents for the settlement of the problem. They treat the negro fairly and considerate ly, and are glad to sec him given a fair chance in life. But whatever anybody’s feelings on this point, or private convictions abqpt custom houses and internal revenue bureaus, they cauuot accept the principles and prejudices of that party whose shib boleth is hostility to the South and its people. Under this sort of in fluence the solidity of the South has never becni broken, and it never will. —Augusta Chroscle. “ The Melon Crop. The protracted drouth which was broken by copious raius last week has proved a serious injury to the melon crop. It is feared that the rains have come too late. The growth of the vines and the fruiting of the same has bean set back ten or fifteen days, and in many instances the vines have died outright. We cannot hope now to ship as many melons as we did last year by a considerable amount.— Valdosta Times. ' The Railway Age says that 53,436 miles of new railway have already been projected in the first quarter of 1889. There are 666 new lines. Nearly halt of the new mileage will be in the south and southwest. And yet there are croakers who believe the country is moving backwards. Some of these days they will get run over by the wheels of progress. The most eastern point of the Unit cd States is Quoddy Head, Me.; the most northern point I’oinl Barrows, Alaska; the most western point is Al ton Island, and the most southern is Key West. Working.from these lour points, many will be surprised when they locate the geographical center of the United Slates. The sweet girl graduate is now en gaged in posing before the mirror to see whether the ribbons match her general make-up. Mr. John B. Harrison,of Springfield, III., says he had blood poison tor quite a time; hfis tonsils were swollen, erup tions over his hands and face, follovycd by paralysis of the face, which was all relieved by Swift’s Specific, and after the lapse of seven years there has been no sign of the return of the disease. Over lour years ago Swift’s Specific cured me of a troublesome eruption which covered my shoulders, back and limbs, This was after I had been treated by six doctors, some of whom said I never would get well.

AN ADMISSION OF ITS (iOOD QUALITIES. An old line physician never recom mends a proprietory medicine till he knows of its good qualities and has proved them. A well known conser vator of the health writes: “Allow me to offer you my experi-' once with Cnlisnya Tonic. I have prescribed it in many cases of general debility with marked success.
