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 wick Times. 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.
