While they arc fighting over appro priations to the university and common schools, the friends of the branch col leges should not be idle. Bruffcy is in jiil again. He refuses to tell the gtand jury of Fulton county what he knows about the East Point lynching. Bruffey is generally on deck. He’ll stick. Sunset Cox was buried in New York yesterday. - Grover Cleveland and vice-president Morton walked at the head ot the procession. A bright light in the democratic parly has been extinguished. The London strike lias not been settled yet. When John Bull meets Bull—well, there are two stubborn elements in conflict. The people sympathize with the strikers. They have been very orderly. Rev. Williams, of Brunswick, who advised the negroes to arm themselves and “use their pistols on the slightest pretense," will receive a cool reception when he returns. Since we come to think about it, lie may receive a'warm’ reception. Harrison declines to discuss with Tanner, the causes which led to his forced resignation. Harrison is right: Tanner would have had the best of the argument. The whole truth is, that Tanner has becircarrying out the expressed views of the aforesaid Ben jamin Harrison and his treasury rob bing party. They Met Again. If there is an ex-coufedcratc soldier i xvho can read the account of a late meeting between Gordon and Long- street, and the writer’s allusion to Lee, Hill, Gordon, Ewell anil Longstreet, as these men fought hnck the lines of blue at the Wilderness; the appear ance of Longstreet at a critical mo ment, followed by 10,000 half clothed, half starved heroes (every mail of them), makes a picture which, even yet, thrills the heart; if there is an ex-confederate, we repeat, who can read this sketch, without a quickening of his pulse, and a tear for lamgstrect and the men who followed him, we arc sorry for him. Bright hits From the Tiines-L uioa, Jacksonville. D. D. meant doctor of divinity till Tanner commenced to pension the Dishonorably Discbared. To tree one who pronounces route root, ask how root is pronounced. lie will reply “rut.” Then ask him how “rut" is pronounced—and lie takes to the timber. An exchange wonders “why our women can’t walk gracefully.” Har ness up any woman with corsets, hard and fast, like a boy’s goat in a dog cart—put liigli-heel hoots on her, strap a bag of meal to her back—and then ask why au elephant can’t climb a tree. A spiritualist photograph has been taken of General Garfield “in heav en,” rigged out in a confederate uni form. The general haviugdiscovcred that the confederates were the correct expounders of the constitution, is now “a rebel brigadier” himself. HufTanil Patterson, the Atlanta duellists, arc 150 miles apart, hunting for each other—one in the wilds of Alabama, facing west, aud the other in the wilds of Georgia, facing Cast. Each must go only half way round the globe to meet his terrible fate in the wild* of Africa. Let the proces sion j^rooced. THE LECONTE PEAR. How It Rates and Ranks in New York and St. Louis. Dixie Nursery, ) Tiiomasvh.i.k, CiA.jScpt. : 2, '89 j Ki>. Timks-E.nikkitusk : While in New York recently, I made it a point to inquire very closely as to the merits 0! the I.eConte pear, as viewed by dealers and growers in that section. 1 was anxious to find out if the fruit was gaining favor with the dealers and consumers 1 tound but 011c opinion: that the I.eContes arc steadily advanc irg in the scale of merit and populari ty, and notwithstanding the ovcnvlirlni- ing fiuit crop this year, the ti uit is in pressing demand, more so than at any period of its history, and more so than any other pear. I tound one man, Mr. G. 1, Sands, one ot the levelevl- hc.aded men in the fruit business, who admitted that he had made a great mistake in rejecting the LeContc, which lie did when it was first intro duced in that market. Such is the feeling of many fruit dealers in New York. “O ye ol little faith." H. II. Sanford. In connection with the above, we take the following from the Farmer and Fruit Grower, in reference to this subject: “We have received so many letters in reference to the LeContc pear from various parties in the south, many of them residing in Florida, that we desire to say through a medium that reaches so many interested—your journal — that up to this season we were unable to offer anything satisfactory with ref ence to its value or success in tiiis market. So far this season such an abundance of the LeContc lias been offered here that the dealers and con sumers have had ample opportunity to judge of its merits. The general ver dict has been decidedly favorable, much more so than we anticipated. It is true the LeContc does not com pare with the Bartlctte or five or six other well known varieties hero we might name, in taste, texture or flavor, but it is so large and showy that it catches the average buyer, and its success has been marked. Yesterday we fairly tested its value side by side with our most favored variety, the Bartlett. We had twenty barrels of the LeContc fiom an Alabama shipper and a similar number ot barrels, nice Bartlctts, from a Missouri grower. The LeContc all sold at $3.10 a bar rel and the Bartlette at $2.75. 'Fhe result was something of a surprise to us. We did not expect to see any variety beat the Bartlett. However, we cannot assure shippers that the LeContc will remain in the ascendency or remain as attractive as the other lavored varieties here, but our experi ence so lar this season convinces us that it will always do well here, better than the average good pear.” Ik M. Kiely & Co. St. Louis, Aug. 22, 1SS9. The LeContc pear has come to stay. Be Kind to the Old Horse. From the Timcs-l'nioi. Jacksonville. Mr. Min ter I’. Key, the energetic agent of the Washington City Humane Society, lias recently written lor the Host of that city, a poem, from which the following verses arc taken. It is entitled “The Appeal of the Old Horse O, driver, I am weary — Withhold your whip I yiay : 1 ft.o the very h.-t ! van Throughout tlie livt-lon.; »l;iy. Your mix*l nccdU'jft* lushing, With such a rcckles- hand. Which makes my poor ik-sh quiver, Id more than I cm stand. o, well do 1 remember The place where I was born ; The green grass of the meadow, Un dear old master’s farm; The children gathered 'round me With many a fond caress. lint now no word is spoken To soothe my deep distress. They brought me to the city, And now my poor old bones Must trudge o'er concrete pavement • And over cobblestones, No clover for my pillow, All flecked with dairies while. But in a dark old stable 1 pass the dreary night. • u, driver, 1 am weary ; I know th*: time is nigh When, in sonic barren pasture field They'll turn me out 10 die; Then in some dusky hollow .Shall be my lonely grave, But those who knew me best will say, “Ik* Was a faithful clave." The surest test of a low, base-born, cowardly nature, is that which exhib its cruelty to the poor, dumb, friend less creatures, whose very helpless ness touches every brave and gene rous heart.” A man who will beat and abuse an old horse, one which has performed good, patient service for years, is a brute. We have, infinitely, more respect for the tottering old horse, than for such a man.—(Ed.) LATEST TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. BRUNSWICK DOES NOT LIKE IT. They Petition Harrison—No Jurymen in tho Cronin Case—More of the Great Storm. Brunswick, Ga., Sept 13—The dispatches from Indianapolis, relative to the convention being held there, during which John Williams, of Bruns wick, is quoted as having used incen diary language in regard to the eject- ment of negroes from a train at Bax ley, created a good deal ol indignation here to-day.
