“The name of Tschernischcwski is

The Philadelphia Inquirer is some
times candid. For instance, it said
the other day: “The enormous out
lays of the past two mouths have
spread consternation among the mem
bers of the administration, and ii
persisted in will wreck the Republi
can party if it does not bankrupt the
treasury. The increase of the public
debt during August being over 86,-

the present fiscal year, July 1, over
87,000,000, is conceded to he a very
unfavorable begiuning for the new

President. Harrison prayed in the

His prayer ought now to be: “For

petition, if it be possible, for it weigh
eth heavily upon me.”
Thoughts on Dueling.
The foliowing, (rom the Constitu
tion, will give some idea of the drill
ot public sentiment on the subject of
dueling:
“This matter of dueling 1> niters
me,’ said a bright young lawyer, yes
terday. “The more I think about it,
the more puzzling it looks.
“If a man insults me and 1 fail to
challenge him, a crowd of people will
call me a coward. If I send a chal
lenge and it is declined, then they call
the other fellow a coward. On the
other hand, if the challenge is accept
ed. the same people will call us lools.
“Suppose wo go cut of the slate,
and the officers arrest one or both i I
People I lie'll say that we expee 'al
he caught, and were only alar a
little cheap notcriotv. If we escape
the officer.! and fight without shedding
blood, these same talkers raise the cry
that it was a fixed up affair. It one
of tis gets killed the people who drove
us into the combat, insists that the
survivor is a murderer, and must he
punished to the full extent of the law.
Don’t you see how many difficulties
this dueling business bristles with?” ■
“What you say about dueling is
very true,” said a bystander, “but I
am troubled about another thing.
Take oui concealed weapon law.
Good citizens obey it. Had citizens
disobey it. Now, alter reading the
daily papers for the past month you
will agree with me that when a
man goes into certain localities
not yery far from Atlanta, lie ought lo
have ft pistol in his pocket. Yet if he
takes this precaution he is liable by
an unguarded movement to expose
his weapon, and then Judge \ an Lpp
will finish him.
“In New York good citizens can
obtain permission allowing them
carry pistols. Why not have a similar
law here? Unless wc modify our con
cealed weapon law, there is danger
that in these turbulent times a measure
intended lo preserve the peace will lead
to the murder of many good citizens
who will fall victims to lawless
with pistols in their hip pockets. ’
There are exceptional times,” re
marked a colonel. “I believe that it
would be just as well to repeal out
laws against dueling and carrying con
cealed weapons. The effect wpuld be
beneficial. Men would be more cau
tious about using insulting language,
and out m the country they would
hesitate to attack a stranger, because
they would expeetto receive a bullet in
return.” •
It will turn out all right,” said a
quiet old gentleman 1 Our people
are naturally peaceable and law-abid-
We have had a few duels, riots
and lynching* lately, hut they will soon
be forgotten. Our crops will be gath
ered, business will boom, money wnl
be flush and everybody will be happy.
The legislation you speak of should
not be lighty set aside. It is m the
interest of peace, and regularly and
continuously enforced, it must and
will give peace. That is the way I
look at it.”

A Step Towards Settling the Bet

The following resolution lias passed
the house. It will probably pass the
Senate.
Whereas, It is alleged by those
who now control the Western and At
lantic railroad that they have certain
claims against the state, growing out
of the lease of the said road, and,
Whereas, They allege a wish and
willingness to settle and adjust the
same, and
Whereas, Neither the validity ol
said claims nor the duty of the state
to allow the same or make ttuy settle

Whereas, It can work no harm to
receive from said parties ail authorita

their proposed settlement thereof
therefore, be it
Resolved, That a joint committee
of five from the Senate and nine from
the House he appointed to confer
with the said parties and ascertain,
1. What claims do they make
against the state and the basis there

2. What settlement thereof, if any,
do they pro[K)se ?

The North Alarmed.
The New York Herald deplores the
recent race troubles in the south, and
very sensibly remarks that the matter
is not a southern question, but a na
tional question. The Herald says
that politcians and fanatics must not
be allowed to play with firebrands.
Every uprising in the south is also an
injury to the north, and an injury
to the status of our nation abroad.
The point is made that during the ad
ministration ol Mr. Cleveland, the ne
groes in the south were peaceable and
quiet. The good sense of the south
erners made everything easy, and it
was not until the republicans came in
power again that the race troubles be
gan.
If the republicans propose to make
these disturbances in the south their
stock in trade, they will find that the
’ 1 men who control the business interests
of the country will repudiate them.
No just and thoughtful republican,
with an interest m the prosperity of
the country, will continue to act with a
party whose policy it is to keep ten
states ol the union in a condition ol
guerrilla warfare, l’eace :o the .south

Washi.ton, Sept. It, 11:50 r. m.
—President Harrison has received
the resignation of James Tanner as
commissioner of pensions. In his
letter conveying his resignation, it is
said, Commissioner Tanner writes
that he recognizes that difference,exist
between himself and the Secretary of
the Interim- respecting the administra
tion ol the pension bureau, and these
differences being radical, in the inter
est of a thoroughly satisfactory ad
ministration of the office, he should
resign.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 11.—The
Senate to-day passed Mr. Bradwell’s
men bill, making complete revision of the
ichool laws of the state and extending
-the term of the common school system
to six months. The bill is very com
prehensive, but with the adoption
of a number of amendments passed
without opposition'. The amendments
provide against tho exclusion of the
bill from the common schools and
that the text books shall he by south

lmd, then the books selected shall he

New Yot.k, Sept. 11.—The tre

northeastern portion of the country
yesterday, had lost none of its severi-

there was a northeast gale here, with
a pitiless rain.
Sear.p.nurr, N. J., Sept. 11.—Last
night was a night of terror here. The
cottagers were badly frightened by
the terrible surf and furious wind.
The surf thundered away on the east
side, and on tiie west the water in the
Shrewsbury river rapidly overflowed
into the streets, Hooding houses and
stores.
Several bodies have been seen float
ing on the surf, but no one could
cover them.
Long Branch, N. J., Sept. 11.—
It is tlie most severe and damaging
storm which has visited this section of
the New Jersey sea coast in-the last
fifty years. Here the surf ran
high that it washed over the outer
end of the great ocean pier, and tossed
its foam and spray 200 feet inland.
The bluff has again been badly dam

K. P. Dodge, Atlanta, Ga., says:
“My wife had catarrh and nothing
