JOHN TBiri.BTF. Pur, ainn. The gubernatorial convention will meet in Atlanta on Thursday. There will be a gre^tgathering of the clans. Josh Billings once said: “I have often thought it would have been money in my pocket if I had never been born. Now that Turner has been nomi nated, let's shuck ofl our courts and ilect him. The old second will do this, without a doubt. The latest telegraphic reports from Washington represent the force bill as being temporarily blocked and checked, with the astute Gorman on guard. Gorman’s mighty smart. Mr. T. V. 1’owdcrly says of the force bill: “There is more intimida tion in four lints of that law than in all the ‘Southern outrages’ that have taken place since the war.” In a speech in Atlanta, the other day, Hon. N. J. Hammond said: “Georgia has the strongest delegation in the present Congress; but I fear that in the next Congress she will have the weakest.”—Hawkinsville Dispatch. Fay Templeton, who has been in Kurope, has returned to this country and will appear in bcrlesquc opera this season. Fay is well remembered throughout the south, as the daughter of the veteran actor and manager, John Templeton. The BrunswickTimessays: When he was told that Governor Gordon was "not scared” about his chances for the United States Senatorslup, Colonel Livingston laughed. When the Gen eral Assembly gets through with the election ot a Senator, Governor Gor don will laugh. It pays to practice law in New Yotk, provided you can do so as suc cessfully as Charles 1\ Bacon. He has just earned $300,000 by break ing the McGraw-Fiskc will. Mr. Bacon was admitted to the bar only ten years ago. For a young lawyer, he seems to be doing well.—Ex. Congiessman Barnes has written a letter to the Augusta Chronicle, virtu ally withdrawing from the race for congress. Another victim of the sub treasury scheme is added to the list, Tom Watson can not do any more for his constituents than Mr. Barnes could have done. He Went Down With His Colots Fly ing. Mr. Barnes refused to endorse the sub-treasury scheme, and so has been defeated. The man who defeated him in all probability docs not, at heart, be lieve the plan feasible; but lie, like others, will ride into office on the wave which is sweeping the country. The Chronicle, in noticing ihe defeat of Mr Barnes, says: Although defeated for renomination for Congress at a time when he was best equipped for a signal and able discharge of the duties of a member of Congress, he is a bigger and a better man than at any other time of his public life He goes down with flying colors for democratic principle s and retires from the race with self respect and with the esteem ard confidence of those who know him. Nit Grammatical if Legal. Filtecn years ago there lived in Dawson a well known individual in the lowly walks of life, Baty Hall, who figured prominently in our justice courts as a bailiff. Illiterate and very partial to corn juice, his unique levies attracted attention. On one of the^ levies we find written : “Levied this fi fa on one crcen colored Horse blind in one Eye and the other Running water 6 bushels more or less of corn 50 pounds foder more or less 50 pounds of pea vines more or less 1 grobin hoe 1 spaid a fuc shucks 4 punkins 7 head of hoghes if they can be found leved on as property of the defendant property pointed out by the plaintiff. W. B. Haix, Bailiff. The Boston Advertiser delights to think that the Alliance is bound to break “ Hie Solid South.” The Advertiser is jumping at con clusions; the wish, no doubt, being father to the thought. Ninety-nine out of every hundred all ancemen in the south are simon pure, unadulterated democrats; at least that is the case in the second district of Georgia. The University graduates have had such a big swing in holding political offices in Georgia that Mercer has de cided to enter the lists. Congressman Grimes has been defeated by a Mercer graduate in the fourth ; Clements has retired before a Mercer graduate in the seventh, and if Maj. Barnes is de feated iu the tenth it will be by a Mer cer graduate. The editorofitie Whtgl.aro Advance evidently doesn’t intend to have any dodging about how members elect to ,the legislature from Decatur shall vote nn the Senatorial question, lie says : STATE OF GEORGIA—Thomas (‘olinl Agreeable to an order of the Honorable eourt of Ordinary August tel in 1890, ofsaid county, w ill lie sold before the court house iloor ill said county on the first Tuesday in Repti oilier, 1890, to the highest and best bid- der the following property, to wit: The one halt undivided i n Iciest of Joseph Drown minor, in and lo town lot fronting 150 feet on Florida street, and fronting lO.'i feet on .Monroe street.

Gordon for ‘United States Scnitor. This & the “yard stick." Hold ’em up >o the rack, Bro. Wil son. Georgians should never go back on John D. Gordon. Railroads for Ten Years. Probably no more impressive proof could be furnished of the growth and de velopment of the United States during the past ten years than a statement, of the increase iu railroad property. The mileage and'the capital invested in railroads in this county have almost doubled since the census of 1880. The total railroad mileage then was 87,000 miics; now it is over 1G0.C00 miles, and increasing rapidly. The total investments in railroad property- in the United Stales ten years ago were represented by So,000,000,000 iu stocks and bonus; now there are over §10,000,000,000 of such proper ty.—Exchange. Smashing Records. The running record has been smash ed all to flinders this year by fleet horses East and West. It is probable that the ironing record may tumble before the season is over. Sunol, the Calilornia wonder, now owned by Robert Bonner, trotted a half mile at Detroit in t:o*?<. The record of Maud S. is a mile in a:o8y, but there seems little doubt that Sanol can get over the distance in less time. Mr. Bonner has proposed to match her for $10,000 against Belle Hamlin, and the match, if arranged, will probably be the oc casion of a new trotting record.— Tele graph. Clifford Anderson. The Sparta Ishmaelile in its issue of yesterday says: Under the circumstances, the incom ing governor, will need the wise and learned counsels of such a rain as Clifford Anderson lor attorney genera', to give direction to a double-barreled, self-acting veto power. No man as slightly inoculated with legal! nowledgc as George N. Lester would be able to meet the necessities of the case. Hardly Big Enough. From tlic* Iit«1inn:ii»oIis Itam’a Horn. It has been stated ihat a thigh-bone nine feet long was found in Colorado some time ago. If all the other bones could be found and put together, the skeleton would look nearly as big as the free-born American feels when he is marching in a procession. Financial Item. Wife—What are you studying so busily these days ? Husband—I am interested in the silver problem. Wife—So am I. Would you he kind enough to give me half a dollar, —Lowell Citizen. ‘ I’m afraid, Johnny,” said the Sun day school teacher rather severely, “that I will ncvermcet you in heaven.” "Why ? What have you been doin’ now ?’’—Ashland I'rets. The cravat was first introduced in to France by some French officers on their return from Germany in ICG).
