IM ItB, IltiNlllOKM .Mu It is said that Harrison’s health is failing. His party will fail in 1892. The earth is the Lord’s, hut Jay Gould doesn’t seem to think so.—Som erville Journal. It lias been almost a week since a stage coach war, held up in the wild West. Strange, Some members of the legislature think they can begin to sec the begin ning of the end of the present session. The republicans; of New Jersey will go to bed on the night ol the election, without any Grubb. That’s Abbott the size of it. The Betterments Question. This question will not down, hike lianquo’s ghost, it is continually rising up. We have an able legislature—this is conceded. The members, no doubt, only wish to do what is right in the premises. But how to get at it is the question. From our standpoint, as seen at this distance, both sides are wrong; lie; slate, at least it is sordaim- rd by some, should not pay a cent; while, on the other hand, the lessees claim more than is actually due them. Something is undoubtedly due the les sees; let the state allow that something, whatever it may be. There ought to be, there must be, a solution of the matter, No one wants to sec the issue carried into the courts. Will it be Settled ? One of the most important ques tions before the legislature is that of betterments—the claims of the lessees of the W. & A, R. 1!., fin- certain improvements made by them during their twenty years lease. The house and Senate have passed the’ following, looking to an adjustment of the vexed question : When ns. it is nlli-gcil l.v the persons who vn or control the lease nt the. Western anil Atlantic Railroad, that they have claims list the slate nt (teorpia as lessees of the tern and Atlantic railroad; and where as, the lessees express a wish to adju-t and settle such claims: and whereas, neither the salidiiv of such claims nor the duty ol the state to allow the same, or make any setile- iicnt thereof is admitted : lmt, whereas, it ■an work no harm to receive from said Wilkie Collins, the renowned nov elist and writer, is dead. The woman in white, was probably the most inter esting of his numerous works. A rhymester writes; “There are poems unwritten and songs unsung." Then let them remain as they are please.—Pittslni rg Ghron iclc. Wonder if anyone has heard any thing lately of the Georgia pistol tutors, who are taking life easy in Tennessee. Governor Taylor is doubtless issuing rations to them. The Senate has passed a bill to sell the Ofckenokce swamp. It makes the minimum price twelve and a half cents per acre. The Goveruer is to advertise the swamp tor sixty days. Major Merrill has also declined the pension conunissionership. lhere is a strong suspicion among prominent republicans that a bomb is hidden un der the late Tannct’s chair.—Tele graph. The New York Graphic has joined the silent majority—it is dead. The Graphic recently joined the republi can ranks. This ought to be a warn ing to papers contemplating a change of politics. ■ Only twenty out of four hundred and seventy members of the chamber of deputies recently elected in Trance, wero followers of Boulanger. It would appear that Mr. Boulanger has about petered out. ■ A member of the Legislature wants to pass a law to require all railroad trains to leave on time. If this mem her can succeed in having the law- passed, he will do more than the ablest railroad manager has been able to do. — Messrs. Hull’ and Patterson were both in their seats in the House yes terday. Mr. Hardeman, ol Bibb, occupies a scat between them. Ibis insures the peace lor the present. Both gentlemen are waiting lbr the decision ot the committee appointed to settle their difficulty.

Therefore, he it resolved, That a int committee, consisting of live from the senate and nine from the house he appointed by the respective presiding officers of the two houses to confer with the lessees ot the Western and Atlantic railroad company, and ascertain from said lessees what claims they make against the state as such lessees, and the basis thereof, and how : nd in what iner they ask for a settlement of the 2.

A short time ago president Ivey, of the County Alliance, appreciating the importance of the farmers of this county being informed as to the cflects of the proposed new rule for weighing cotton, addressed a letter to president Livingston, of the State Alliance, ask ing his views on the question. Under date of the 21st, Mr. Livingston re plies as follows: Dear Uho.:—Yours of 1 5 th to baud. All cotton is now priced with u deduction of C per cent, for tare. A bale weighing 100 pounds, has just 0 per cent, tare (21 pounds) a bale weighing 500 pounds at 0 per cent., therefore, sustains an actual loss ol d pound; This we changed from 0 per cent, to 2 pounds per bale on all jute covered cottui A bale of cotton covered cotton, actual tar is 10 pounds, therefore a loss under tli present tare, of 11 pounds.
