' The Third Georgia will entertain the delegation from the Kawkiu’s Zouaves, in handsome style at Fort Valley to day. • These two commands crossed bayonets more than onco dur ing the war. Now, in these piping times of "peace, the Zouaves come south, where they will be cordially welcomed by their old opponents. The Zouaves bring with them a handsome shield, fashioned after the Rhode Islnnd coart of arms, and com posed of immortelles. The ground work is of white 1 lossoms, and across the shield is a band of gray flowers, on which, in raised blue floral letters are the words: “Hawkins Zouaves to the Third Georgia.” Above the band crimson letters spell ‘‘-Peat":” and “Good-will.” The floral tribute will l>c presented to the Georgia regiment, and a speech will be made by ex-Judge Langbein at the re-union. And the old soldiers will fight their battles over again, not on bloody fields, hut around the festal board. “Behold how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in uni- The usual semi-weekly murder took place at Birmingham day before yes terday.

President, Green, of the Western Union Telegraph Company, one of tlio bloated monopolies of the day, has tackled Wanamaker, the “breeches maker,” now at the head of the post oflicc department. It is very refresh ing, and highly edifying to see these republican patriots whacking at each other—at long range. .Shorten the range, gentlemen; come to the scratch. Wanamaker is yet to be heard from. There isn’t a very big splotch of blood on the moon, and the chances of claret flowing is not very flattering. A mill between these two would lie enjoyed by the whole country. Wanamaker would probably intrench himself be hind his Sunday school desk. Green appears to be the more belligerent of the two. A boy pointed an empty pistol at another boy the other day. The empty pistol went off; they all do. Funeral services from the residence ot the late boy. Gov. Beaver, of Pa., has —at last- decided to surrender Flitnon. the color ed preacher, who is charged with mur der in South Carolina, to the legal au thorities of the latter state. — ••• m - it is being whispered in oflicial cir cles that the N. C. commissioners to the Samoan conference lately held at Ber lin, got left. The shrewdness of Bis marck is cropping out. “Fighting their Battles O’er again,” is what some of our boys arc doing to-day in Fort Valley. On yesterday and to day the famous old Third Geoigia Regiment basa reunion at Fort Valley, and that hospitable little city has laid out a programme that will be very much enjoyed by the old veterans. Mr. Sam Hayes, of our city, who was a member of Co. K.., (Athens Guard-) and ]. W. Murray, of Lake Co., Fla., who was a member ol Co. 1C., (Governor's Guards, from Fort Valley) went up yesterday to take part in the reunion of dieii old com mand. And to the Britishers didn’t scoop the beer breweries in the United States, after all. But they tried to do so. John Bull must continue to guz zle his own beer—on the other side of the Atlantic, or come over here, call for “Schwei beer” and pay for it. like a man. Sectionalism will die only when the republican party dies. Hatred ot the south, and its abuse, is their only stock in trade. Whenever these frazzle out —as they will, perhaps—then will lie Written the epitaph of the republican party; DIED OF SECTIONAL IIATK. Hon.

Some member of the logislntme has capped the climax, by proposing a bill to force the railroads to run on time.

Chicago, July B0. —A local paper says that Messrs. Elkins and Widner, of Philadelphia, who arrived in the city yesterday afternoon, told for the first time of a syndicate having been formed some time ago which has sc : cured gas rights in Indiana of between 50,000 and 60,000 acres, and will pipe natural gas to Chicago. When asked about the Indiana law which prohibits any gas being run out of the State, Mr. Elkins said: “Oh, we are going to have that declared unconstitution al.” Mr. Elkins said further: “This syndicate .numbers thirteen members. They arc till Chicago men except Mr. Hcquenherg, a Pennsylvania oil man, Mr. Widner and myself. All have just signed a contract for building pipe lines and lamps.
