The bleak November blasts will
whistle through legislative whiskers in
Atlanta.
A now they are talking about a con
tinuous session of congress. Good
Lord, deliver us from such a calamity.
Three incendiary fires occurred in
Savannah yesterday. A rope and
a lamp post would be about the correct
remedy.
A final vote on the Olive bill will be
taken, so it is said, in the morning, ll
would, in the opinion of many, be a
great mistake to pass the bill
There is a spot in Siberia about
thirty miles square where the ground
has not thawed out for the last bun
dred years, and where it is frozen to
a depth ol sixty feet.
The fast train between Philadelphia
and New York, running at the rate o(
6o miles per hour, jumped the track
yesterday. No lives were lost, but the
passengers were terribly shaken up.
The lovers of the “weed” will regret
to learn that at least 500,000 pounds
of tobacco in one county of Kentucky
have been entirely destroyed by frosts
during the past two or three nights.—

The democrats of Montana couldn’t
swallow Prince Russell, of the tribe of
Benjamin, and his loud English trous-
sers If Russell Harrison will only
keep himself on exhibition in the new
state, it will become hopelessly demo
cratic. Russell, after all, has his uses
. The famous Brooklyn Tabernacle,
of which the Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage
is pastor, was destroyed by fire on
Sunday morning, at 2:15 o’clock. The
loss is $150,000, and is said to be
covered by insurance. This is the
second time the church has been de
stroyed by fire.
As America was discovered in 1492,
it is now proposed to erect a tower in
New York, on the anniversary of that
interesting event, 1492 feet high. I.et
the tower go up. It will be nearly
500 feet higher than the Ivffcl tower
in Paris, and by far the highest struc
ture in the world.
The Tennessee Methodist confer
ence, at Murfresboro, lias Brother
Haggard on trial for having been en
gaged to two women at the same time,
marrying one of them within a week
after he had written a letter pledging
his undying love to the other.
Hon. Clark Howell, of Fulton, is to
be congratulated on having secured
the Marietta &: North Georgia R. R.,
an entrance into Atlanta. The people
ot the state wiii approve and cr.dor.-e
the action of the legislature. Mr.
Howell deserves the thanks ot the
entire people of Georgia for his work,
It required skillful work, but the young
representative front Pulton was equal
to the task.
The Boston Globe is attack,ng the
character ot Christopher Columbus.
We protest against this. Don’t attack
a man who is not here to defend him
self. Mr. Columbus was no doubt l
very respectable citizen, as respecti-
bihty went in the fourteenth century

"Blocks of P'ive" didn’t win in In
dianapolis, last week. The democrats
carried Harrison's home a-whooping
It is the first time the democrats have
•carried the city for years. There’s
life in the old land yet. It was
stinging rebuke to the grand-son
of his grand-daddy. And there are
more such rebukes iu store tor him.
What Have Wo Here?
The season continues, ns we miiy
say, to accumulate. The ripeuing
persimmon gives evidence that the
’possum is fat enough to eut, if, per
chance, he cau be caught, though the
old breed of 'possum dogs appears to
have played out entirely.
These dogs had long heads, long
ears and keen noses, and if they smelt
at the tree at all it was because a very
small 'possum had “clumb” it. If
the ’possum was a large one, lie was
in a small tree, and we trust that the
war and its results have uot changed
these matters.
But the season is here, and it brings
its responsibilities, whether they come
in the shape of’possums, persimmons
or chestnuts.
We are having a very fine season
of it altogether. The morning glories
and the moon flowers are at their l-e.-t,
and the moonlight nights an;! the cool
mornings bring out all the hidden
beauties of these modest bloomers.
The leaves are beginning to fall.
The magnolia is in a state of trnn-i
tion, and the china tree, whose foliage
is the tenderest, is dropping its yel-
Tow leaves around. We are at the
turning of the year. I11 this climate
the purple of the maples do not
account for much, but the sweetgum,
the hickory and the sycamore combine
to give their testimony to the influence
of the goddess who, at this season,
carries her flaming torch about.
The above bit of word painting,
picturing the autumn, the old au
tumn’s, is from the Coi stitution.
There is a delicate fresh flavor about
it which is traceable to the pen of Joel
Chandler Harris.
Rais!
Washington, Oct. 13.—To-morrow
it is announced, a professional rat
catcher and his ferrets are to hunt tin
rats out of the white house. Tltest
rats, emboldened by long tolerance
have become so audacious that re
cently while the President was sitting
reading alone he saw one ot the
climb up on the table and take some
'Iruit which lay upon it. The Pretid
s quoted as having said then that
was time to call a halt on the rats.

“Boulanger refuses to talk.” That

They never refuse to talk until after

Chicago pastors are earnestly dis

Georgia is ahead again. Even
some of her preachers are on the code.

Some at the old rats about the white
house, and Washington, will have to

for the occasion.
0, Woman! Woman!
The society editor of the Constitu
tion thus discourscth about two Atlan
ta dames:
Two ladies who have recently re
turned from New York have purchased
costumes so pretty and becoming that
t seems a pity that no one save their
husbands are to have the benefit of
their rigs. They ate both robes cost
ing a fabulous sum, and made, one of
pa e pink and the other of pale blue
eider down flannel, lined With quilted
satin in the same shades, and tied at
throat and waist with profuse bows of
watered ribbon to match. But this
isn’t all ol the story. There’s some
thing else to match—two pairs of ten—
dollar silk stockings, pink and blue
and tiny pointed-toed pink and blue
undressed kid slippers. Tnink upon
the effect ol such costumes upon the
the artistic taste of humanity, and then
the woman therein contained, fresh,
fair, sweet-scented front her bath, the
shell-like nails manicured to a dazzling
beauty, the befrilled and lace-bedecked
garments giving out the faint odor of
violets.
Admitting Women to College.
The faculty of the University of
Pennsylvania, by a vote of 25 to 2,
recommended to the trustees the ad
mission of Indies as regular students.
It was brought up by the application
of two ladies, made to the board
through Superintendent McAlister,
for admission as regular students in
the Wharton school of finance and
economy. Besides these, some six or
eight have asked admission as regular
students in the new course of natural
history.
The resolution adopted asked the
board of control to authorize the fac
ulty to admit students without refer
ence to sex to all courses covered by
the faculty. Five years ago a young
woman bad applied and passed the ex
animation and the faculty, by a small
majority, and after a long debate rec
ommended the trustets to admit lter-
The trustees, also by a small major
ity and also after a protracted consid
eration, refused to do so, This year
the college faculty voted without de
bate. The more advanced papers of
Pennsylvania declare that even if the
recommendation of the faculty does
not prevail with the board of trustees,
it cannot affect public opinion. The
progress of co-education can now be
no more thnn postponed.—Augusta
Chronicle,
An actual count shows that there

The women’s Congress at Denver,

state in tiie union were elected.
Tire President has shut down on
indiscriminate callers. He is writing a
bloody rcretd about the unrepentant
south, to be read at the opening of
next session of congress, in December.
Harrison is too narrow-minded to take
in the whole country. After all, per

did not endow him with that intellect

distinguishes a true statesman. . He is

help It.

Cured by Cuticura.
I am cured of a loathsome disease, eczema, In
its worst stage. I tried different doctors and
been through the hospital, but all to no pur-
oose. The disease covered my whole body from
the top of my head to the soles of my ieet, My
hair all came out, leaving mo a complete raw
sore. After trying everything I heard of your
Cuticura Remedies, and after using three bot
tles of Cuticura Resolvent, with Cuticura and
Cuticura Soap, I find myself cured at the cost
af about SO. I would not bo without the Cut!
cura Remedies in my house, as I find them use
ful in many cases, and I think they are the only
skin and blood medicines.
ISAAC If. GERMAN, Wurtsboro, N. Y
Burning and Itching.
I was sick in the fall of 1888 with a burning
and itching so bad that in three weeks I was
covered with a rash, and could nor sleep nights
or work days. Some doctors thought it might
be salt rheum (eczema), and sakl they had nev
er seen anything like it before. I received no
help from any of them, or from any medicine
that I could get hold of until I tried your Cuti-
^ura Remedies. After three weeks’ use I was
ble to work, and kept getting better, until I
m now entirely cured. I recommend them to
all suffering with skin diseases.

Most Intense Itching.
I have used the Cuticura Remedies success
fully for my baby, who was afliicted with ecze

my baby is cured, and is now a healthy, rosy-

The Chicago Herald is rather can
did in its expression ol opinion in re
gard to the political 1 monkeyin’’ in the
rccer.t elections in the new states. The
Herald indignantly exclaims: "What
sort of a rotten borough has been re
ceived in the union ol states under'the
reversed name of Washington? Al
though the republicans carried the
new state by a majority of only a few
thousands, it appears that the demo
crats have elected only one state sena
tor and only six members of the house
of rept eseritatives.the legislature having
more than one hundred members.
Such gerrymandering as this beats any
solid south’ deviltry that has yet been
brought to notice.”
The Boston Advertiser says: “Lou
is Napoleon was twice imprisoned nnd
twice sentenced to exile. Twice he
iule attempts upon the French gov
ernment that resulted in setting all
the world laughing at him. He talk
ed generalities and platitudes. Elec
tion after election, in which his name
was an clement of popular interest, a
rallying cry of discontent, resulted in
overwhelming triumphs for the gov
ernment. He wu3 so straitened in
pecuniar circumstances that his pov
erty became a byword. He spent a
large part of his early years of fruit
less conspiracies in London, an object
of curiosity, not unmingled with con
tempt. He neither said nor did any
thing to showtluit he posessed any
capacity for statesmanship or war.
All this is to be borne in mind if we
would wisely estimate the present
status of Boulanger. History is not
prophecy; but prophets should be his
torians.”
