[JOHN TRII*I.ETr, Hus. Jinn.
First Assistant Postmaster Clark
son has resigned. lie leaves n bloody
ax to his successor.
Chattanooga went democratic the
other day for the first time in many
years. The tide is rising.
The Alliancemen of Louisiana arc
fighting the lottery. Every good citi
zen in that state should join in the
fight.
Thore are nearly as many people
who speak English as there arc peo
ple who speak German, French and
Spanish.
The defeat ol Col. Clifford Ander
son, for Attorney-General of the state,
is very much regretted by bis numer
ous friends in this section.
The Democrat predicts that phos
phate finds in Decatur “will open the
eyes of the people.” All right, Pen,
we hope you will have an interest in
the richest beds lound.
Alabama went democratic the other
day, electing Jones governor by over
ioo.ooo majority. What do you think
of that Mr. Reed ? Cut if Reed had a
chance at Jones he’d count him out.
A young girl—so the story goes—
ate her father's entire peach crop up,
in Maryland last week, and then ask
ed for more peaches! The old man
did not have but one peach in his en
tire orchard.
Hon. Maston O’Neal, one of the
truest democrats in Georgia, will be in
the next senate of Georgia. Decatur
county has shown her wisdom in nomi
nating him. He is thoroughly equip
ped for the duties which will devolve
upon him.
What has become of Col. E. C.
Wade. It is time he was calling a
convention to nominate himself for
congress in this district. .Sail in, Col.,
if you think there is no hereafter.
The democrats of the old second arc
laying for you.
A Paris surgeon has cured a little
child of idiocy by peoforming an op
eration on the skull which caused the
brain to expand.
There’s a fine opening in this coun
ty for a surgeon who can expand the
brain.
A dispatch from Washington, yes
terday, said the force hill was in a
hole. It maybe just now, but old
Hoar will twist it out before the end
of the session. The country would lie
better ofT if old Hoar was in a hole
himself—and in to stay there.
A Breakfast Unpleasantness—Mar
riage is indeed a lottery, sighed Toni
noddy, after a tiff with his wife. And
we both drew prizes, returned the
lady. Ah? saidT., somewhat mol
lified. Yes. You got a capital
prize, and I took the booby.
The Standard Oil Co., one of the
greatest monopolies of the day,and the
richest corporation in the United
States, has, at last, found a place to
to sink money: they are going to start
a daily paper in New York. The long
suffering public will have their revenge
at last.
We but express the general senti
ment of all who have, for the past ten
years, had business with the. Executive
Department, that Tip Harrison would
be very much missed if Governor
Northen should fill his place with
another, Every old soldier in the state,
especially, would miss him. He has
been a great friend and help to the vet
erans ; and he has the entire routine of
executive business at his fingers’ end.
Governor Gordon for the Senate.
From time to time we hear rumors
that there will be some opposition to
Governor Gordon's candidacy for the
senatorship.
These rumors may iiavc no founda
tion. They should have none when
the people of Georgia arc seeking to
honor their bravest hero, their best
friend, their ablest counselor, and
their best-beloved countryman. It
would be a calamity to the stale if
Gordon should be defeated.
Governor Gordon’s candidacy for
the senatorship comes just at the lime
when this state, the south and the
democratic parly need his services in
the senate chamber. The occasion
and the man have met. In both
houses of congress the liberties of the
south, and the rights of the stales are
threatened by ambitious politicians
who would wreck the republic if by
such desperate means they could per
petuate their despotism over the grave
of tree institutions. Democratic voters
are to be held up by the bayonet at
the polls, while republican supervisors
regulate elections and count their
minions into office. The south is to
he harried by federal interference and
dictated to by federal soldiers. The
horrors of reconstruction are to be in
dicted upon us after a generation ot
the profoundcst peace and matchless
patience under wrong.
To face the danger in the very van
of the storm, the south needs able and
fearless patriots at Washington. Geor
gia should send her best representative
to the senate, to aid in the great strug
gle that must come. Once southern
courage and southern intelligence
guided the destinies of the republic.
Surely now the best of southern cour
age and intelligence should be at the
post ot great danger to defend the
threatened liberties of the southern
states. We made the constitution.
We should now help to save it from
republican usurpation.
Who but Gordon can Georgia send?
Who but Gordon would she send to
the front at such a crisis?
He is the only man that the people
can afford to send to the senate at
this lime. If it is possible that he
could be sacrificed, it would be a cal
amity to the state, to the south, and
to the democratic party, to commit
our interests into any other hand.
The next senator from Georgia should
he, and will be, John B. Gordon,
That Augusta Road.
With unabated and increasing in
terest the people of Thomasvillc, who
have subscribed 850,000 to the above
road, arc watching the progress of the
road. The fact that this line has
recently purchas -d the partly construct
ed line from Augusta to Knoxville,
Tcnn. increases the value and impor
tance of the Augusta and West Florida
road. The Augusta Chronicle, in notic
ing this purchase, says:
“ 1 he combination of two new en
terprises, both working in Augusta’s
interest, is full of promise. The Caro
lina, Knoxville and Western and ' the
Augusta and West Florida railroads
ars now virtually in one system and
will be worked together to rapid com
pletion. The Chronicle has already
published the statements of the ofiicttrs
of these lines and ol the construction
companies, and the outlook for a
prompt and practical combination of
tbese lines and their speedy completion
to Augusta is good. This city is now
the center of great activity in railroad
circles and industrial lines. The
Chronicle wishes the projectors of this
new enterprise all success.
Messrs. James U. Jackson and Wm.
E. Jackson have taken great and com
mendable interest in this work. They
deserve to succeed for their energy and
pluck. The system, il perfected, will
place Augusta in the middle of a valu
able line from the mountains of Ten
nessee to the lakes ot Florida, and
every citizen of Augusta must wish
this work success. The influences at
worn, the men behind it, the capital
invested in it, the value of the combi
nation as a business idea, the inviting
field which Augusta presents to pro
motors of these enterprises leave small
room to doubt that this system will
grow into a practical and powerful syn
dicate. The enterprise is certainly full
of interest to all our people.”
The cumulates for speaker of the
Georgia House arc Messrs. Clarke
IIowcll, of Fulton, W. H. Fleming
and Rob’t. L. Benner, of Monroe, W.
Y. Atkinson, of Coweta and J. M.
Twitty, of Jackson and Felix Corput
oj Floyd. Mr. Corput will have a
strong alliance following, though
Clark Harrell will divide that vote
witli the gentleman front Floyd. .
Give Us the Road.
The Tallahassee Northern Railroad
should be pushed to completion as
early as possible. It will do more to
build up Tallahassee and Leon county
than almost any other enterprise would.
Take some stock and help carry it to
success. It will pay from the begin
ning of the first train. Nothing offers
a better field lor investment of money
now. If you are not able to take
$1,000 in stock lake Si00.—Tallahas-
sccan.
The Cotton Crop.
Washington, Aug. II.—The Aug
ust cotton returns of the Department
of Agriculture shows e. slight advance
in condition in Caroliuns, Tennessee,
Mississippi and Louisiana, a fall of 1
per cent, in some points in Georgia
and Flnrdin, ot 2 in Alabama, 4 in
Arkansas, and 7 in Texas. The gen
eral averageis 89.5. It was 91.4 last
month The condition therefore, is
still relatively high,
A paper out west, speaking of a
cauidntc who is bidding for the Alli
ance vote, describes him as one who
“farms with his mouth.’”—Hawkins-
villc Dispatch.
It is the genuine, sure enough far
mers, who should he recognized,
instead of those who are merely far
mers in name, and who are using the
alliance to get office.
