New York will vote on prohibition in April. The Georgia legislators are taking a rest. It will be Cleveland, and not Hill. Mark this prediction. The next legislature will not have to tackle the betterment question. Every one wished Governor Nor- then a merry Christmas, He is mak ing a model governor. Five men are awaiting death by electricity in New York. The novel ty of this mode of execution will soon wear off. Gov. Hogg’s majority in Texis foots up 204,061. That’s real hoggish. He didn’t give the republicans any show at all. Charles Duxton: Juliet was a fool to kill herself for in three months she’d have married again and been glad to be quit Romeo. A Mr. Brown has been appointed by benny harrison as associate Justice of the Supreme court of the United States. Who is Brown? Governor Hill, of New York, is going to have the census of his state taken over again. He will show Porter up in a bad light. Baby McKee’s stocking was hung up in the White House. We wish 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. GKEO. W. FORBES 175 BROAD STREET. MASURY HOTEL BUILDING.

WHOLESALE AND RETAIL GROCERS. 11|6 d 5m ASK YOUR GROCER FOR 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.
