SATURDAY, JUl.f 88!.
The American colon}' in Paris cel
ebrated the 4th in grand style.
It will be several days before the
legislature gets down to solid work.
Harrison orated at Woodstock, Yt.,
on the 4th. A big rain took the
starch out of several speakers on the
occasion.
Conventions to form state coinstitu
tions met on the 4th, in the new States
of North and South Dakotah, Wash
ington and Montana.
Maj. J. F. Hhnson is at the head of
a manufacturing company with 8130,-
000, the proposed object of which is
to erect a cotton factory in Cordele.
The Blue grass wears the blue rib
bon again. Proctor Knott beat Spo
kane, the famous Montana horse,
four lengths, in a race at Chicago on
the 4th.
The first bill introduced in the leg
islature was to change the code.
There now! Wc expected it, howev
er. Poor old code. The best lawyer
in Georgia don’t understand it now.
Johnstown, Pa. has had another
flood. But it was not very disastrous.
A number of dead bodies were ex
posed by the flood, All were beyond
recognition.
Fort Worth, Texas, anti vicinity,
was overflowed by a deluge of water
on the 4th. Several lives were lost.
Dispatches put the loss of crops,
buildings, &c., at two millions of dol
lars.
What right has slugger Sullivan
and bully Kilrain, to invade a South
ern state, and violate the law? We
hope the strong hand of the law will
be laid on these bull dogs of the ring.
Prizo fighting is a most brutal sport.
The west Florida annexation
•ehemc is still being worked. A big
mass meeting, to discuss the question,
was held at Chipley on the 4th
There were opinions and counter opin
ions. A man fainted during the
meeting. This broke up the pow
wow, and Florida is still intact.
Georgia’s new capitol was formally
turned over to the State ou the 4th,
by the building committee. Capt.
Evan P. Howell, of the capitol com
mission, delivered an address formally
tendering the building. Governor
Gordon accepted the building in be
half of the State.
The Persian minister has got his
back up about criticisms in the Amer
ican newspapers ou the shah, and re
signed. The shah, has made a hoc of
himself, and his minister at Washing
ton has made a fool of himself. „
The New York World makes some
very practical suggestions in relation
to the movement of the higher educa
tion ot women. It says:
“Education is a preparation for life,
and in just so far as a woman's life dif
fers Irom a man’s in its circumstances
she has different educational needs.
Education is good m the degree in
which it fits the pupil to discharge well
the duties that will probably fall to his
or her lot, and measured by that test
the training of our boys is far from
good, while that of our girls—those o
them at least who receive the ‘higher
education’—is nitibly bad.
A Pretty Big Family.
Another fourth of July has conic
and gone; and another wrinkle has
been added to "Uncle Sams” brow.
But the old gentleman appears to
carry his age quite well. Although
well advanced in the second century
of hi? existence, lie would be a tough
customer to tackle. He stands well
among tliejnations. Crowned beads
make obeisance to him. Ilis family
is numerous, and every memljer of it
is perfectly devoted .to him. It was
found necessary, a few years ago, for
him to spank some of liis southern
progeny—in order to maintain family
discipline;—but the children have
gotten over their spell of pouting, and
everything is lovely again. It was a
pretty severe ease of discipline, how
ever. If the old gentlman will see
to it that the Northern wing of the
family shinnies on their own side in
the future, there will be no more
family jars.
“Miss Columbia’’ and “Uncle Sam.’’
Miss “Columbia,” fresh and smiling,
as she was at sweet sixteen, entered on
the one hundred and fourteenth year
of her age, day bclore yesterday. There
are no wrinkles on her fair brow, and
her form is plump and full, while her
eye shines as bright as it did half a
century ago. In lacl Miss Columbia
is a well preserved old maid. She
may be a little coy, now and then, but
never coquettish. The latter would
make her ridiculous, and Miss Colum
bia is never ridiculous. She might
tolerate, but she would never encour
age a flirtation. A kind of platonic
affection exists between her and “Un
cle Sam.” The old genlleman,though
now well advanced in years, is quite
spry, and his devotion to Miss Colum
bia is quite marked on occasions
Your Uncle Sam is [arming on quite
an extensive scale, but his agricultural
pursuits do not unfit him for the per
formance of those gentle amenities and
attentions to the fair sex, which is dis
tinctively an American trait. We wish
both Miss Columbia and Uncle Sam
well. They are an interesting pair.
In fact, it would be difficult to find
two more interesting and popular
characters. May they live to sec a
thousand fourths of July —and still be
young.
The Georgia “watermillion” is get
ting in its work. W’c notice that cases
ol colic and cholera morbus are num
erous at the north. Druggists and
doctors wear a smile a yard wide.
Mr. Blaine intends to visit Tennes
see next fall, hut announces thus far
in advance that the only.object of his
visit will be “business.” One trouble
with Mr. Blaine is that lie lias too
much business. lie gets it badly
mixed with bis politics aud the
discharge of bis official duties. The
Little Rock railroad and the Peruvian
guano scheme were “business” in the
Blaine vocabulary.
it is unfortunate that the panic in
the shirt marker in Atlanta, when these
garments dropped down to four cents
a piece, occurred a day or two before
the legislature met. These gentlemen
could have liaid in enough linen to
have lasted through a prolonged ses
ston. And the question of clean shirts,
toward the heel of the session, is a very
important one —with some members.
It is a wonder that the LcConte
pear has held up as well as it has,when
considering tlic tact, that at the open
ing of every shipping season,—or rather
before the opening—parties v/ill per
sist in sending forward green culls,
blown, perhaps, from the tree. A
dealer at the north who sells his cus
tomer some of these pears, certainly
cannot expect to sell him again. And
the customer will tell his neighbor to
let the LeConte severely alone.
The 'KgjU. Jacksonville, grows pa
triotic as well as poetic. Listen ;
"Fling out the starry ensign red; iu
immortelles cmvreath it 1 The hoy
in blue, and cx-confcd, c: ,, i all shake
hands beneath it.”
Then haul[down the bloody shirt;
send Foraker to the ycai; make Tan-,
ner strike the dirt, and pull Bill
Chandler’s car, kick Dudley out, and
sound the gong lor honest men to
rally, and then you’ll see it won’t bo
long, ’til from hiO top and valley,
will come a million voices strong—
saying:
“Let us have peace.”
The Georgia weeklies will be on the
half shell tills week. The fourth of
July does not come twice a year.
.Some one has written a work en
titled, “The Woman of the Future.”
It is the present woman who will mo
nopolize the attention of the masculine
gender. The present woman can
largely discount the woman of the
future. Dealing in futures in cotton
may do very well, hut when the man
of to-day is asked to take stock iu the
“woman of the future” lie will flatly
tell you that lie will do no such thing.
But he will unhesitatingly strain his
galluses to the point of breaking of!
the buttons, for the girl of the period.
He prefers, on general principles, pos
session to pursuit. And yet sages tell
us that there is more pleasure in pur
suit than in possession. But it is
mighty hard to convince some fellows
that this proposition is true, when a
sweetheart is in the ease.
It is a noticeable fact, that while
B. Harrison shrinks from inviting
“Blocks of Five” Dudley, to sliovo his
shanks under the white house maliog-
ony, yet whenever there is any par
ticularly dirty work to do, Dudley is
appealed to. And doing dirty work
lias become so congenial to Dudley,
that he swallows the slights, and
dives down, to the very bottom of the
pool of political rascality, and revels
in the dirty work cut out for him by
Harrison, Quay and others. He is,
indeed, a pliant and willing tool.
Let us hope, fondly hope, that the
next generation will not duplicate
Dudley.
Rosenthal, the spurious check man
who has been swindling melon grow
ers, was arrested on Thursday in
Atlanta, just as he was boarding an
Air Line train for the North. The
sheriff of Brooks county lias wired the
chief of police to hold “Rosy” until
lie gets there. Rosenthal says lie is
afraid they will mob him in Brooks-
General Lawton lias reached home
from Vienna. He says lie is glad to
be in (leorgia again. General Lawton
made a most creditable representative
abroad.
Little Bobby—“Ma, will I go to
heaven when I die?” Mother—“If
you arc a good boy you will.” “Will
you go, too?” “I hope so, Bobby.”
“And will pa?” “Yes, we will all he
there some time.” (Bobby didn’t
seem altogether satisfied, hut after
some thought lie said:) “I don’t see
how I’m going to have much fun.”
A Grand Stand Collapses.
Kansas City, July 4.—A special
from Guthrie, Oklahoma, says a grand
stand, from which 1,000 people were
witnessing an exhibition of fire-works
at Oklahoma City this evening, col
lapsed,Jaml seventy-five men seriously
injured.
Dr. Green, besides being rmfait in
physic and surgery, is skilled in wag
gishness. For example, he recom
mends Dr. Sessions, who wants some
postholes dug, to buy the town well and
saw it up into post holes.|Hc is the man
who went to the ice factory, bought a
piece of ice with a hole in it, and ut
terly mystified the ice man by dc
manding that the weight of the hole
be deducted from the price of the
piece. The ice man wonted to know
how in the thunder he was to ascertain
how much the hole weighed.—Eustis
Lake Region.
Mother—“Jahnnic, why arc you
crying ? I’m only going to be away
a week, aud your papa will he home
with you.”
“No, he won’t; he’s going to Rome.”
“Going to Rome ? Why, child,
what do you mean ?
“I heard him say that ho would
make Rome howl when you loft.”
“Oh, indeed? Well, I won’t leave
you, Johnnie.”
An Editor’a Experience.
Major Sidney Herbert, a well known
journalist in agricultural circles, writes
April i Sth, 1889: Some five years ago
I wrote a letter stating that Swift's Spe
cific had cured me of severe rheuma
tism. Since that time I have had no
return of the rheumatic troubles, al
though frequently exposed to the influ
ences that caused former attacks. Sev
eral of my friends had a similar expe
rience, and are firm in the conviction
that S. S. S. brought a permanent cure.
The searching power of this medicine
is shown in the fact that it developed
a scrofulous taint that was conspicuous
in my blood over thirty years ago, and
has removed the last trace of it. I
have also tested S. S. S. as a tonic after
a severe attack of malarial fever,which
kept me in bed for three months, and
am convinced that the curative and
strengthening properties insured my
recovery from that illness, as I was in
a very low condition of health.
