the effect that this old and well known
firm had failed, cryetnlized later
the day, confirming the report.. We

represent the firm.
Since the above was in type we
learn that Col. A. P. Wright has been
appointed assignee, given bond, and
taken charge of the business. The
liabilities of the firm are estimated at
anywhere from forty to fifty thousand
dollars. The assets are estimated at
835,OfiO, of which 830,000 is preferred.

Punish the Conspirators.
AVhat is to be done with Livings
ton is a question which is agituting
the Farmers’ Alliance of Georgia.
Everywhere over the State the deepest
indignation is felt at the effort of the
organization’s president to sell it out.
General Gordon’s friends do not
hesitate to say that Livingston nnd
Macunc could not have pleased them
better than by indorsing Mr. Cal
houn, and attempting to drive the
fanners to him. That there was a
conspiracy between those two leaders
and three or four lesser lights in the
Alliance there is now no doubt. -Nor
is there much doubt as to the nature
of their motive. The conspirators
were bold and reckless. They took
desperate chance and lost. Con
trolling the General Assembly by a
large majority as it does, the Allianeo
could easily have elected any man

two great ranges of mountains which
ridge this continent—a table reaching
from the Atlantic to the Pacific seas.
It is the Thanksgiving table of the
Nation. They come from the East
and the West and the North and the
South, and sit at it. On it will be
smoking the products of all lands—
birds of every aviary, cattle from every
pasture, fish from every lake feathered
spoils fiem every farm. The fruit bas
kets will bend down under the pro
ducts pluckedjfrom the peach fields of
New Jersey, the apple orchards of
western New York, the orange groves
of Florida, the vineyards of Ohio and
the nuts threshed from the Southern
woods. The bread will be white from
the wheat field. of Illinois and Geor
gia, the banqueters will be adorned
with California a id Georgia gold, and
the tabic will be a gleam with Nevada
silver, and the feast will be warmed
with the fire-gates heaped up with
Pennsylvania and Alabama coal. The
halls will be spread with carpets from
the Philadelphia mills, and when dark
ness conies with its heavy draperies,
the lights will flash from bronzed
brackets of New York manufacture.
The fingers ot Massachusetts' girls
will have hung the embroidery ; the
music will be the drumming of ten
thousand mills aciompanied by the
shouts of children let loose for play,
and the gladness of harvesters driving
barnward the loads ol sheaves, and
thanksgivings of the nation which
crowd the celestial gates with doxolo-
gies, until the oldest harper of Heaven
will not be able to tell where the ter
restrial song ends and the celestial
song begins. Welcome Thanksgiving

solidly indorsed. Mr. Calhoun was I Dav !—’Talmage in I.idies
not the one to whom Allianccmen journal,
would go, and the order suffered de
feat. The hlnmc is put on Mactine
und Livingston, where it rightly be
longs. Now leading members want
those men deposed from their offices.
A fight is imminent.—Savannah
Daily Times.
Let such men as Governor Nortli-
en, Park, of Bibb, or Waddell, be put
in the lead, men who are devoted to
the good of the order, men who will
not prostitute it to personal promotion
and the order will swing hack to the
high and noble purposes for which it
was organized. The people are with
the alliance, when the order is not
used as a stepping stono for political
demagogues. Mnctinc, Livingston,
Harry Brown, &c., made a woful mis
take, when they undertook to drive
the alliance into the support of a rail
road monopolist.
ValuablesStolen.
Mr. J. L. Linton had a splendid
gold watch and considerable sum in
cash stolen from him on Fridayago.

Newcastle, Ky., are among the latest
arrivals in the city. They are at the
Gulf.
McCabo A Young’s minstrels

quartette with this company is stud to
be excellent, and the whole program

At Augusta.
Senator Gordon was given a grand
reception in Augusta, on Friday night.
No such demonstration has been wit
nessed there sinco the election of
Cleve'and. Among other things Sen
ator Gordon said:
•‘Long live the farmers’ alliance,
freed from the domination of unwise
counsels, erect in the unpurchasable
manhood and individuality ot its cour
ageous and self respecting member
ship, persistently and bravely battling
with the great party of the people
against legalized oppression in every
form, and resolved never to furl its
banners until this government of the
people is administered in all its
branches in the interest solely of all
the people.

John Baring, Mr. Kirkman and Mr.
Hodgson.
Wouldn’t Take the Medicine.
The Valdosta I’mios says :
Livingston and Macune managed to
get 36 votes tor their Alliance caucus
nominee for the Senate. This was a
crushing deteat for them when it is re-
membered that the legislature is two-
thirds Alliance. In a word, the Alli
ance repudiated Livingston and Ma-
cune’s sell-out to the Richmond Ter
minal Company. They would not
take the medicine.

‘T am tho boss fool,’’ said a man
to Mr. Charley Beermau at the Kim
ball.
“How so?” said lie.
“Well, I got drunk, have bellowed
myself hoarse, have spent all my
money, got my hat crushed in, and
have no place to sleep—and all on
account of the election of a man
whom I have never seen, and know
nothing about. I'm a stranger iu the
city.
An advance statement given to the
Financial Chronicle hy the census
bureau shows that there are now six
teen cities iu the United States having

eight cities above 100,000, and no

BUSINESS.
Owing to the dis
turbed condition of
the clothing trade
this season, we have
concluded to sacrifice
our handsome stock
of brand new clothing
iu order to meet
competition of any
kind, trusting to re
gain at some future
time the losses we
will naturally sustain
by this sacrifice sale
of elothiug.
The public are cor
dially invited to call
and compare our
“PANIC” PRICES
with any other in
town before buying.
We have no fear of
the result.
