JOHN TBIfl.BTr, Bill. Blnn. Woolfolk will probably die of old age, while the lawyer* are haggling about hanging him. It is the “laws delay” which causes so many lynch- inga. v . The Kaiser and Czar have met, kissed—and parted. And now Europe is watching for the effects of the royal embrace. It mty be war—or it may be peace. McCune, the republican manipulat or in Washington, is going to beat Gordon for the Senate, so it is said. Georgia democrats will see about this. And don’t you forget it. One hundred and thirty-three coun ties in Georgia show a net increase tn values, since 1889, of thirty-one mil lion. Five more counties are 10 be heard from. Georgia grows. Felix Corput has “writ” a card. Felix wants to go to the legislature, and to be speaker. He may get to the legislature, but Clark Howell is more than apt to be speaker.

Gen. Grant’s body will be carried to Washington and the government will build his monument.

Barrett telegraphs to Atlanta: ‘ Maj. Barnes returned to-night. He is the last of the defeated Georgians to return. He looks well and smiling. When asked about affairs at home he said : ‘I don’t know anything, except that there is an organization in Geor gia known as the Farmers’ Alliance.’ “ — Matt McQueen (colored,) has been in the employ of the Southern Express Company at Athens for about twenty years, and has never lost a day from business. In recognition of his faith ful set vice the company has just given him a month’s rest, on full pay, and also a free excursion, with all his ex penses paid, to Savannah, Charleston, and Columbia. Mary Anderson, “Our Mary,” now Mrs. Nevarro, will go on the stage again; but tor just one season. Mr. .Nevarro has given a reluctant consent to this arrangement. Ill health, two years ago, prevented Miss Anderson from carrying out an engagement wttn her manager, and now she proposes to fulfill the engagement. ■ - ■ — Princess Maria Anna, of Portugal, is a young woman who has no use for the modern dude. She is betrothed to an entitled doctor and in answer to a friend who asked how she could con cent to marry a man so far below her rank, said : ‘‘I prefer to marry a man without name, rather than a name without a man.—F.x. Maria Anna, your head is level, very level. Prof. Mayo says the power of the Mormons is broken in Salt Lake City and vicinity. They are now in the minority and have hardly a hand in the government ot the city in which they were supreme. The entire muni cipal government and the schools have passed into the hands of the Gentiles. The social customs which distinguished the Mormons are fast disappearing. There is even a socie ty of young Mormon women who pledge themselves not to many a pol ygamist, all of which is very encour aging. _ Half a ’Million. Boston, Mass., Aug. 23.—Conser vative road tneo place the prospective loss to the Old Colony Railway com pany by the Quincy accident, aside Gram the damage to rolling stock, at half a million dollars. Rallying to the Road. The people ofTallthassec and Leon county are getting in earnest about reaching 'Ihoinasville with a railroad. We take the following call for a series of meetings, from the Tallahasseean: TO THE PEOI’LE Of LKOO COUNTY. There arc people in our midst who make a posi tve and definite proposi tion to build a railroad from Tallahas see to Thomasville, Ga., upon very liberal terms, and they are desirous of making full explanation of their plans to the public. All persons, therefore, who have the welfare of their county at heart, are most earnestly re quested to assemble at the following time and places: Iamoma, Wednesday, August 27th, at 11 a. m.; Centreville, August, 28th, At 11 a. m.; Miccosukie, August, 29th, at 11 a. m.; Gallie’s Hall in the city of Tallahassee, Sept. 2, at 8 p. m., to fully discuss the matter and to have explained to them the actual and im mediate advantages that Monticello has derived by savings in freight, etc., through the acquisition of her present road. There is not a man in this county but what can well afford to give one day to the consideration of thts important matter, as it will necessarily benefit every individual in the entire county and it is promised that every thing done in this matter will be in good faith and not like other offers which this county has heretofore had, as the paries making the present offer have already invested largely in the county, which in itself is the most positive evidence of good faith that could possibly be produced. George W. Saxon, George W. Walker, T. J. Rojierts. Who Will Oppose Gordon? It is very generally thought—though the writer has some doubts about it— th it some one will oppose Gov. Gor don for the Senate. Rumor is busy with the subject. W. R. Goiman, of Talbott, ex Senator Norwood, Hon. J. K. Hines, Livingston and others are mentioned as possible opponents of Gen. Gordon. In this connection we take the fol lowing opinion of a friend of Gen. Gordon, as it appears in yesterday’s Constitution: “His speech will not hurt him, but on the other hand will help him,” said a great adtn.rer of the general yester day. “It took genuine manhood to make a speech like that under the cir cumstances. He could easily have avoided the question if he had wanted to, and if he had been asked direct about it, he cculd have said what he did say at LaGrange. But he wanted to be open and frank about the matter, and he simply opened his heart and said what he thought. A number of Alliaucemcn over the state are ear nestly at work for him, and ma-ty of the Alliance members of the next house have committed themselves or have been instructed for him. He wi li be elected and that is all there is about it. Gordon’s friends are shucking off their coats, and if a sure enough fight is made on him, the fur will fly. South Georgia is practically solid for Gor don. Even Shepard Cries Halt! Deacon Shepard, ot the Mail and Express, has given the colored people of the south more bad advice to the square inch, than any crank in New England, but he has finally called a halt. On this subject the Constitu tion, says: The colored friends of Deacon Shepard, ot the New Yorx Mail and Express, have been trying to enlist his sympathies iu what is called “A Scheme of a Secret Political Society for the Organization of the Colored Men Thoughout the United Slates.” For once Editor Shepard objects and bids the colored matt halt in his career. He says that secret political societies will cripple his influence and ruin him generally, and warns him in advance that he will give him no as sistance on this line. But we have discovered the true in wardness of his refusal. The colored men who propose to form this secret society have taken unto themselves such titles as th* following: “Exact ed Prophet,” “Lord Chancellor,” “Chosen Elder,” “High Priests,” “Le- vites," “High Scribes,” “Sanctified Phirisees,” and “Worthy Sires,” and Deacon Shepard is so religious that he thinks such titles are out 'of p’ace in politics. But the scrupulous deacon of the Mail and Express has much to learn about the ways of his colored friends. He does not know that they have se cret organization in the south that boast just such titles, as ior instance, “The Loyal Sons of Ebenezer," “Daughters of the Resurrection,” “Fathers of Jerusalem," “Children of J ohn the Baptist," “Walkers of the iery Furnace,” “Sons of the Lion’s Den." and "Prophets of Belshazzar.” A Midnight Murder. Only it cat in Ilia motfrt light; Only n cat, that’s al]; Only a song nt midnight, Only a wild, weird waul. Only a mail impulsive, Only a reason flown; Only a dutch convulsive, Only a bootjack thrown. Only a sudden sally, Only an uttered “Scat!" Only a corpse in the alley, Only a poor, dead cat.— Chicago Evening Post. They Are Coming. The Baltimore Manufacturers' Re cord, in its circular,. reports a bright outlook: With such activity as this in mid summer, when Southern peop'e are closely occupied in getting ready to handle their great cotton crop, and when Northern people are waiting for the return of fall before taking an ac tive part in Soulhcrn development, it is difficult to predict what stirring times will he seen later on in the sea son. In a month the cotton crop will he moving freely and money will be very abundant, and Norihern capita lists will by that time be ready to b> gin their Southward march in great numbers. Here’s a Chance For a Job. The Hempstead correspondent of the Quitman Press inserts the follow ing in that spicy paper: Wanted; two editors, one lawyer, a doctor, and a preacher, to pick cotton a few days during this hot weather: Thirty minutes to noon.
