The standing committee of the Episcopal church for the Diocese of Georgia, met in Augusta on Tuesday, and decided to let the election of their new Bishop stand over until the regular annual convention, which meets in Savannah next May. 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 ment is a good one and causes rejoic 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 the Macon Telegraph, should be heeded by every ono who has been blessed with enough of this world’s goods to bo able to divide with the less fortunate: "When y6u are laying aside your money for Christmas don’t forget the little ones'who have nobody to invite . Santa Clans to'come to see them. He for whom Christmas is named loved those as jrell as he did the best kept chtldrta on earth," 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.
