[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.
