M. B. Bl'KRi HiiHincs* Wnnngfr. Brazil, for a new republic, seems lo be doing right well. The Canadians are talking, though in whispers, of a republic. Blaine hasn’t scooped in Cuba yet. But it is thought that he would like to do so. We presume northern fanatics will not stop maligning Jefferson Davis. If the man had defects—and few have not—the grave should cover them. Almost every town in Georgia held memorial services on Wednesday. Georgia sincerely mourns with her sister southern states, over the new grave of her hero. Florida is looking out for a healthy immigration. And that’s just what Georgia should be doing. We don’t want any socialists or anarchists down here, but we do want a good set of industrious, law abiding immigrants. Farmer Livingston’s picture in the St. Louis Republican, is calculated to injure bis chances for governor. Georgia will never elect such a look ing man governor of this state. Farmer Livingston has good cause for action against the Republican. « ■ • - <XO- It is said that Hon. Roswell P. Flower, of New York, will introduce a measure in Congress, “relegating the selection of postmasters, custom house oflieials and internal revenue collector;, to the people of the vicinage wherein their duties are performed.” At Rest. All that was mortal of .Tclhrson Davis was laid to rest in New Orleans on Wednesday. Eight governors of southern states and hundreds of dis tinguished citizens of the south were present, lending their presence to the impres-ive occasion. The military was a distinguishing feature of the funeral. Companies, battalions and regiments from all parts of the south were there. Georgia sent the Gate City Guards, Atlanta, to swell the ptgeant. Gov. Gordon was the Hon orary Ghief Marshal of the occasion. New Orleans was a sea of black and bathed in tears. No such tribute has ever been paid the dead in the south. And from one end of our fair south land to the other, memorial services were everywhere held. It was a universal funeral throughout the south. Flowers, bright beautiful flowers, were heaped on the grave of the south’s dead. They were sent from every state in the south. One duty remains: the “daughter of the Confederacy,” Miss Winnie Davis, and her aged mother, should be the special care of the south. They arc, in a sense, the heritage of the south—the links which bind the past to the future. The south will see that they never want. May God in his infinite goodness and mercy, tenderly and lovingly bind up their broken, bleeding hearts, and shield them from all harm. DEATH OF MRS. SCOTT LORD.

Mrs. Harrison's Sister Dies Rather Unex pectedly in Washington. Washington, Dec. 10.—Mrs.Scott Lord, sister of Mrs. Harrison, died this morning at 3:30 o’clock. No body outside the family in the house where she was stopping were present when Mrs. Lord died. It Was known that the ease was well nigh hopeless, but still her death was sudden and was not expected so soon. Mrs. Har rison and Dr. Scott are now at the house with the remains. No arrange ments for the funeral have yet been made. The country was never more pros perous. The great lines of railways and water transportation, are iuade quate to move the crops. From every section of the country comes the same report: the best crops made for years. “Jefferson Davis is dead, but the rebellion which he led still lives in a largo part of the country,” says the New York Mail and Express. Editor Shepard should strap on a pair of pistols, come down South, and crush the new rebellion. Shepard simply lies for political effect. Miles Cooper (colored) lives in Or lando, Fla. He was one of Mr. Davis’ servants, and when lie heard that the ex-President was dangerously ill, he went to New Orleans to minister at his bedside. He arrived too late, however—Mr. Davis died a few hours before he could get to the house, and, when lie saw the lifeless features of his old master, his grief was indeed pathetic. Grand army men in Philadelphia are greatly excited because Capt. Gray, a grand army man, wants to take part in the funeral ceremonies of Mr. Davis. They say that they don’t want any grand army men to be pres ent at the funeral. Capt. Gray wants the animosities of the war forgotten The Philadelphia veterans want them funned into a good-sized flame. It is not difficult to decide which is the more patriotic.—News. From llie Enquirer-Sun. A special train on the Michigan Central.'' carrying Cornelius Vander bilt and family, about two weeks ago, made a run ot 107 miles in ninety' seven minutes, stopping four minutes, running at one point for three miles at the rate el seventy-eight miles per hour. This is the fastest railroad time ever made in this country. Dr. Howard Crosby wants news papers that will be above the desire of money making.
