Gov. Hogg’s majority in Texis foots

didn’t give the republicans any show
at all.
Charles Duxton: Juliet was a fool

A Mr. Brown has been appointed

Baby McKee’s stocking was hung

Baby McKee well, though, his or her,
grandfather is a mighty little man.
It is said that the gag rule will be
brought up in the senate, early this
week. Can it pass? It is very doubt
ful, with the chances against it. The
democrats will fight it to the bitter
end. If it does pass, then the force
bill may be passed.
To Navigate the Air.
Chicago, Dec. 10.—In a few weeks
there will be witnessed the triumph of
one of the greatest inventions of mod
em times, or else some level-headed
capitalists'will have to confess them
selves the victim of an unsuccessful in
ventor. At the Grand Pacific Hotel
to-day a stockholders’ meeting of the
Mount Camel Aerynautic Navigation
Company, of Chicago, was held. Mr.
Pennington, the inventor, announced
that “within three weeks will sail into
Chicago io the first ot our airships.”
At to-day’s meeting the prospects
of the enterprise were discussed in de
tail. Mr. Pennington explained that
the first of the ships, with which it is
proposed to navigate the air at a rate
of speed exceeding that of ocean
steamers, was now nearing completion,
and that the plans for a trial trip over
the country had been completed. This
trial would occur in about three weeks.
The ship would'start from the place of
its manufacture at Mount Camel, and
travel to St. Louis. From there it
would sail to Chicago, and from there
'New York. In addition to Mr. Pen
nington and his associate, there would
behalf a dozen newspaper men aboard,
and the inventor to.day also invited
any of the stockholders who desired to
accompany him on the journey, i
What a revolution in travel, if the
new air ship is a success. Will it affect
railroad stocks, will Jay Gould get up
a corner on the new mode of travel,
will the stock be watered, and—well
there is no telling what will happen,
Northern tourists could take an „ air
ship in New York in the morning and
take supper in Tbomasville.

Has Resigned.
The following correspondence ap
pears in the Americus Daily Times ot
the 24th :
Americus, Dec. 23,1890.
Mr. Merrel Callaway, president Time
Publishing Company:
My Dear Sir—I herewith respect
fully tender my resignation as editor
of the Americus Times, to take effect
to-day.
With best wishes for the future
success of the paper, I am respectful
ly yours,
Albert Winter.
Americus, Dec. 23,1890
Albert Winter Esq:
My Dear Sir—I am in receipt of
your letter tendering your resignation
as editor of the Americus Times, to
take effect from the date.
In placing your decision before our
board, as it will become my duty to
do, I am sure I ouly reflect the ear
nest sentiment of its entire member
ship, and of our reading public, when
I say that all of our people will mbs
in no small degree the presence and
the impress of n pen which with equal
facility could adorn, enthuse or con
vince. With ray highest personal re
gard. I remain, very truly yours.
Merrel Callaway,
Pres. Americus Times Pub. Co.
The above correspondence will ex
plain itself.
It is not necessary to enter into a
discussion of the causes that induced
the action on which it is based. The
public with all its desire to read be
tween the lines must be content with
the result, and will not learn the
cause; at least not from me.
Five months ago I took charge of
The Times; and since then whatever
of individuality 1 possess has been
familiar to its readers.
In writing these, the last lines
which I shall address them, it is but
natural that I should regret the dis
solution of a relationship that has
been as pleasant ns most things in this
world.
I haye labored to give Americus a
good paper; whatever may have been
my success, others must judge.
I did my best and I am content.
Albert Winter.
The pungent pen of Capt. Winter
will be missed on the Times. He ils
one of the ablest writers on the Geor
gia press, and we hope to see him in
harness again soon.

John Temple Graves.
Thb distinguished young Geor
gian delivered an address a few eve
nings since before the New Enngland
Society, in Philadelphia. He is the
second southerner to address this old
society, Mr. Henry Grady having
been tho first. Speaking of the con
federate soldiers at the close of tho
war, Mr. Graves says:
Side by side with tho resolute
and steadfast figure on New Eng
land’s rook-rbownd coast I place the
matchless pathos of the confederate
soldier, who had empted hb purse and
hb blood for hb convictions, and
walked home a'thousand miles to find
ashes strewn thick upon tho garden
of roses he had left. Leaning upon
his battered musket he faced a future
of sweeping desolation. Ruin, dbas-
ter, death and despair gathered upon
hb horizon; the Grand Army of the
Potomac, with its frowning batteries
of cannon, never sent such a sinking
to his dauntless soul as did the deso
late fields of his country and the piti
less poverty that covered it.
The war has stripped the cavalior
of his doshiDg plume, but the spirit of
the man was equal to the hour, and
as the ruined cavalier faced the som
bre stretches of his future, the hero
spirit of a splendid civilization rose
to conquer in that supreme and cru
cial hour of hb defeat. His brave
lips locked in firmer irou and, as his
soldier hand closed for the last time
upon the battered gun, tho sharp
lines of tho buoyant curled to tho
circle of scythe, the metal melted to
the fashion of the pick, the battered
stock assumes tho measure of the
plow; and our hero with new light in
hb eye and new hope in his heart,
moving through tribulation a into
triumph, comes to-night to this Now
England banquet to say that, from
the point of these helpful, and health,
ful, and heaven blessed weapons, he
has plucked a braver victory than he
ever won in battle from the point of
his gleaming sword. [Great Cheer
