ALBERT W1WTKK, Whs. 31 mi.
They can’t beat John II. Gordon.
Blount is having a hard road to
travel.
The democrats arc getting to think
pretty well of Mr. Blaine.
The fall poet will soon bud out. He
is not quite so bad as the spring poc\
The whole south is aroused on the
force bill now pending before con-
gre s.
Lester’s fences appear to be out of
repair. The allianccmen have knock
ed off several rails.
Mr. F. J. Walker, one of the solid
men of Colquitt county, is spoken of
for the legislature from that county.
Leonidas Livingston will never
represent Georgia in the United States
Senate. Think of him occupying—
we will not say filling—Ben Hill’s seat!
T he following sign will probably be
hung out at the white house: II.
Harrison, Dealer in Real Kstate. All
deeds, with a $i consideration, made
to Mrs. Harrison.
There is bad blood between the
Constitution’s elephant and the Jour
nal’s lion. The latter flatly refuses to
march in procession with the elephant.
They will evidently not lie down in the
too together.
Tom Woolfolk’s late will be decided
by the supreme court to morrow. It
is generally thought the verdict of the
court below will be affirmed, and that
Woolfolk, will at last, be brought to the
gallows.
Murat Halstead declares of the
force bill that “the attempt to enforce
it would be the re-opening ol the way.”
It should be borne in mind that Mr.
Halstead is one of the ablest republi
cans in the country. He sees, clearly,
the danger lurking in the folds of the
infamous measure.
John Merriam, of Rhode Island,
called himself a humanitarian and
bought up a lot of old horses and
turned them out to pasture to end
their days in peace. He had got
about thirty and the papers were eulo
gizing him, when his wife got a divorce
on the grounds of extreme cruelty.
She proved that he almost starved her
to death.
A meeting of the retail merchants of
the state was held at the Chamber of
Commerce in Atlanta on Thursday
and the “Retail Merchants Protective
Association ofGeorgia” was organized.
A resolution was passed and a com
mittee appointed to memorialize the
next legislature to pass an act amend
ing the garnishment laws so as to make
So per cent, of daily, weekly and
monthly wages subject to garnishment.
A GoodYear.
What a record breaker this year
will be in Georgia! The biggest
crops ever gathered from her soil, and
mere demagogues than ever were har
vested. There’s going to be a halle
lujah chotus from Crawfish Springs to
Dungeness when the leaves begin to
drop and ’possums are ripe!—Bruns

Rushing for Pensions.
Washington, July 24.—Up to the
present time there have been received
at the pension bureau about 326,500
applications lor pensions under the act
of June 27,1890. It is not expected,
however, that any ot these cases will
be reached in the ordinary course ol
adjudication for some time yet, owing
to the pressing need of additional
clerical force.
was tlicjo’in A. Logan of the south —
the great volunteer general in the ser
vice ot ike confederacy. The southern
states were full of West Pointers when
the war erne on. Military education
was esteemed more highly a prerequis
ite for promotion in the confederate
service than in the union army. Jeff
erson Davis had graduated at West
Point, and served in the regular army,
and had been seneary of war. He
bad the usual West Point prejudice
against the volunteer officer. But
Gordon, going at the head of a com
pany. rose by hard fighting and merits
as a commander to the rank o' lieuten
ant-general.
Gordon is a fine-looking man. The
deep scar just below the left eye add*
to the strength of the face ratner than
disfigures. Nature gave him a better
“setting up” than he could have ac
quired at West Point, and he “looks
every inch a soldier.” The scar is one
of five rcminiscenes ol Antctam which
he carries. In that battle he was on
the front line encouraging his men
when a minie ball ploughed through
the calf of his leg. Without stopping
even to bandage, he kept on. A ball
went through a little higher, and two
red streams trickled down. Then he
was shot through the left arm, and a
few moments afterward a furrow was
turned i t his shoulder.
“Fire on and fire fast, boys. I'm
not going to leave you,” he said, as
he saw his men looking anxiously at
his dripping wounds. Then the fifth
ball struck him fairly in the face,
crashing through the cheek bone.
Gordon was carried off the field for
dead. He was so lar gone that be
did not know what was occurring for
days afterwards. He came to con
sciousness in Winchester, and got back
to the army after months ol nursing.
The United Confederate Veterans
chose Gordon to be the general of the
organization for the coming year. And
then the Raccoon Roughs presented
him with a 'coon-skin for luck. His
reply to them was:
“I had rather live and die with a
place in your hearts than be com
mander of all the world. My only
hope is that when I die it may be
jmttcn on my tomb : ‘Here lies the
body of a confcdcrote soldier who did
his duty.’ ”
Words of Wisdom.
“Let the south alone,” says the
Philadelphia Record. “The best cus
tomers the people of the northern
states ever had, or ever ^vill have, are
the people of the southern slates.
They buy more from us, and sell us
more; than all the rest of the world
together. Why, then, should we harass
our brethren, our partners in business,
our closest friends, by legislation pro
motive of political disturbances or race
conflicts ? The south is the most at
tractive field now open to northern
enterprise. It cannot remain so for a
day except under the undisputed domi
nation ol its white inhabitants. They,
only, are the fit and proper custodians
of representative government. They
only can make life, liberty and prop
erty safe in the south. Why should
we not let them alone to work out
their destiny ?
Woolfolk’s Case.
Atlanta, Ga., July 24.—A rumor
has in some way gotten abroad that
the supreme court will affirm the deci
sion in the Woolfolk case. So far as
can be judged the report is well found
ed. There is reason to believe that
one of the associate justices has drawn
up an opinion more than eighty pages
in length, sustaining the judgment of
the lower courts, and will submit it tor
revision to the other judges in the
morning. The judges will say nothing
in advance ol the announcement ef
their opinion on Monday next, but
unless they find reason to alter the
decision they have reached it may be
safely stated that Woolfolk will go to
the gallows.
