The Georgia Legislature will prob
ably adjourn on Monday evening—at
least the House has decided not to nd
journ at an early date.
The weather was so cold in Atlanta
on Wednesday that the legislature
transacted but -little business and
adjourned at an earlier hour.

Governor Northen has appointed
Judge Allen Fort, of Americus, to
succeed Judge Alex. Irwin os railroad
commissioner on the expiration of bis
term, Oct. 15th, 1891. The appoint

ing among Judge Fort’s friends
throughout the stutc.
Messrs. Parnell and Davitt are
leading the opposing hosts, and hay
ing opposition meets, and the shillnlah
seems to be the weightiest and most
common argument. A meeting of
the two leaders with their opposing
factors at Kilkenny reminds us of the
notetj cat fight there and appeared at
. one time to be almost os desperate,
and likely to result after the same
fashion. Mr. Davitt is a native
Irishman, and understands the use of
the Shillalah better than his distin
guished antagonist. The prospects
just now seem favorable to Mr.
Davitt’s success.
Remember the Poor.
The following lines, clipped ftom

blessed with enough of this world’s
goods to bo able to divide with the
less fortunate:

PASTEUR’S TREATMENT.
Successfully Administered to Two
Dog-Biiton Athenians
Athens, Dec. 17.—Mr. Clarence
Rowland of this city, who was slight
ly bitten by a mad dog some time ago ;
has returned from New York, wiiere
ho was treated at the Pasteur Insti
tute by the celebrated Dr. Gabier,
Mr. R. N. Snead, another Athenian,
is expected home from the institute
in a few days. Both gentlemen are
in good spirits, and have been as
sured that there is no danger of hy
drophobia.
In describing his treatment, Mr.
Rowland said:
“On account of the delay,
were, on our arrival, put under; a
more severe course of treatment than
would have been done under more
propitious circumstances. Dr. Ga
bier, who is at the head of the insti
tute, gave us three hypodermical
injections with the virus taken from
the sixtieth rabbit, because the others
were too strong. The methods they
employ in diminishing the strength
of the virus are very unique. They
inoculate the first rabbit with por
tions of the brain of a dog that died
of rabies, and then they continue to
inoculate rabbits, the strength of the
virus weakening with each inocula
tion.
For the first three days, after our
arrival, we were injected three times
with the virus, the thigh was always
the plnc9 where the injectmonts were
made. The injections were then
reduced in number to twice a day for
fours days, then tor the remaining
thirteen days only once a day. I
suffered no inconvenience from the
punctures with the exception of a
slight sore. At the time of our stay
there were twenty patients undergo
ing treatment from all over the union.
There were also rabbits in cages in
the different stages of rabies. One of
the assistants in the institute was bit
ten by a rabbit and was forced to sub
mit to treatment; they must exercise
grtfat care in handling the rabid ani
mals nnd are in constant danger. Dr,
Gabier says we arc entirely out of
danger and wo need not .'entertain the
slightest trouble or apprehensions of
future trouble from the bites.”
The Financial Stringency.
Tbe following'ex tracts are from a
lengthy article o*i the business situa
tion in a recent issue of the New
York Journal of Commerce:
The so- called ‘‘stringency” is not
owing, therefore, to any diminution
in the volume of currency by waste
or export, and there is in the country
about 824 for every mau, woman and
child within our limit?, not excluding
those left out of the count by Porter’s
slipshod, inexpert, and partisan enu
merators. If there were 81,600,000,e
000 more, making 850 per capita, as
the Farmers’ Alliance demand, this
addition would not help a man now
impecunious to another dollar. And
this is the grand mistake which tie
needy and improvident arc always
making in regard to their empty
pockets. They see the full purses in
other hands and they fancy that if
more money was put in circulation it
would overflow the coffers of the rich
and run into their collapsed recepta
cles 1 But it every bank vault was
bursting with its treasuro, and the
stores of the thirfty and forehanded
were doubled, no man who stood idly
at the street corner waiting for his
share would get a nickel out of it. It
is not the rule of this world to give
something for nothing.
There being more currency in the
country than ever before, what is the
reason that those who complain of
their lack do not obtain a supply?
Plainly because they do not offer in
exchange tor it a tempting equivalent.
The banks have the same capital.
Why do they stint their discounts?
Because the business paper offered
does not seem to them so attractive—
in other words, does not present to
the eyes of their managers the same
security that it did when they dis
counted more freely. Why do pri
vate capitalists ask such high rates of
interest? For the reason that the
Bungtown Railroad bonds and the
High Flyer Consolidated shares and
the like are not in the same repute,
and as they are paying enormous pre
miums for loans, those who have un
doubted securities are compelled also
to pay an advance.
