Mr. Montgomtry, ol Marion, has intro duced a bill to exempt all cx-confcd- erates from street and road duty. The great battle over the terms upon which the state road shall be leased, has opened in Atlanta. Dr. Felton fired the first gun. And it was a loud one. Long days will he con sumed in the discussion.

They should he, for we have some of the “Old Guard” here. ^ Wanamaker having knocked out the green postage stamp lias turned his attention to Dr. Green, of the W. U. T. Co.

The irreverent members of the fourth estate now refer to the “breeches maker,” Wanamaker, as “Moneymaker.” Is there no protec tion for greatness? This latest out rage should’ receive swift, unerring, severe and blistering punishment. Let no guilty editor escape. It would appear from an interview with Col. Hawkins, in the Savannah News, that the new road to Savannah is in rather a nebulous state. The Colonel was very non-committal. There is a suspicion abroad that the Central has got its finger in this Ireshly baked pic. The Central is famous for this. The Colonel, how ever, assured the reporter that ?50,000 would insure the independent line. Congressman John Allen of Mississippi maintains Ids national reputation as a wag. He began a speech to an immense gathering at a Confederate veterans' reunion a few days ago in this way: “Ladies, gentlemen and fellow-rolonels.” This was followed by ai|sptecUfull of wit, beaut v and pathos.—Ex. And ninc tenths ot the audience considered themselves personally al luded to. Felton is willing to leave the next jf tbs state road open to the “Parthi- Umitta and dwellers ia Mesopotamia.” Small Manufactories. Nothing tcmltj more to build up a community than small manufactories, and in these Thomasville is sadly de ficient. Wc have come to rely almost entirely upon our winter business in hotels, hoarding houses and north ern visitors’patronage, and are paying little or no attention to the all thc- year-round business. This tdiouM not he so. It is true wc arc growing, aud growing moderately fast, hut we should take advantage of the oppor tunities given ih, and build up every conceivable industry. We purchase from 25,000 to 50,000 crates and in numerable barrels here every season for our pear crop. These ought to he made here. We waste thousands of dollars worth of fmit which ought to he canned and evaporated. We order doors, sash, blinds, etc., which could and ought to he made here. We ought to have an iron foundry, and any number of other enterprises which could he induced to conic here with a little etlort. Now, there are quite a number of these enterprises located at points not half so desirable as ours, that, could he induced to conic with a little effort. Let our people make that effort, and the Amerieus Recorder has presented a plan to that end which suits our case so well that wc adopt it. It says: There is not so much risk ol failure, and there is greater diversity of employment mi I better wages. There are no strikes or sudden suit dowr.s, throwing hundreds out of employment. •►Small manufactories, properly-managed, build up ffito large on*s ami build on n firm foundation, .'or they know by experience the want of the market and work to supply them. Too often all the capital, in large manufactories, is ex pended in building ami machinery, leaving too little to work upon, and as the first year is always an experiment, the losses often cat up the small working capital and work is suspended. We need a number of small manufactories and wc can secure them at a comparatively small cost and without any great exertion. There arc many small and profitable manu factories which could lie located here if our people would take one-third or one-half the stock. The money for this stock could be easily secured by the organization of an investment company upon a plan similar to the x loan and building associations. Hay organize an investment, company with a thousand shares of $100 each, payable at the rate of one dollar per month on each share. This would give one thousand dollars per month to he invested by the directors in the stock of small manufactories. The directors could Advertise that they were ptepared to take a certain proportion of stock in manu factories to he located here, and we have no douht but many could be secured. By tul investment and management this stock could lie made to pay handsome divi dends, and thus not only would the city he bem fitted by increased population and trade, but the stockholders would realize a fair percent, on their investment. In eight years we would have ouc hundred thousand dollars invested in manufactories without the investors having felt the losses of the money. Suppose some of our enterprising busi ness men go to work and get up sin li nn organization. Wc believe the amount of stock necessary could be seemed in a short time. LATEST TELEGRAPHIC NEWS.

Our exports and imports came nearer balancing for the fiscal year recently closed than at any time in a quarter of a century, merchandise imports exceeding exports by only 82, 725,000. Our exports for the last fiscal year increased 8-1(1,000,000 and our imports 820,000,000 over the fig ures for the preceding year. But our specie exports exceeded imports by 807,078,000 against an excess of 81”,- 000,000 for the previous year. Until 1870 the merchandise exports from this country never exceeded imports any three years in succession; trom 1870 to 1887 every year showed an excess of exports which varied from 826-1,000,000 iD 1879 to 820,000,000 in 1887. In 1888 the balance turned again and exports fell 828,000,000 behind imports. The exports of gold last year are stated by advance sheets of the bureau of statistics to have been the greatest since 1864, We alih exported 818,- 000,000 of silver, the largest quantity for nny year since 1874, while our import of gold was the smallest for ten yeafs.—Telegraph.

The appointment goes into effect to-day. Mr. Haines is a young man, but he' has had considerable experience in the general passenger department of the Savannah, Florida and Western railway, with which he was connected for several years. lie- lias a wide circle of friends who arc glad of his appointment to the posi tion —News. The Morning News wants to drain the Okcfenokec swamp, between road workings, with the state convicts. Not a had idea. But it is doubtful if the counties could successfully and economically handle any number of convicts. Mr. Olives attack on Major Wal laGe will not do lnm, or his bill, any good. The Christian Index (Baptist) edit ed by Dr. H. II. Tucker, speaking of Mrs. Canfield’s letter, says: The horrible story of Lucretia Borgia is said to he fictitious, hut here is something about which there is no fictiqn. Borgia was satisficl with units; Mrs. Canfield wants victims by millions. Borgia's venom, so far as we know, terminated with earth. But Mrs. Canfield reaches beyond the grave ; anti her conception cf heaven is that it is place where the malice of the pit will en hance the bliss of the redeemed. We must think that she enjoys the had eminence of being the first member of the human race who ever conceived such a thought. The merchants are preparing for a higfall trade.
