Tilden, who, in speaking of Cleveland, said: “He is the boldest politician I have ever known,” Three cheers for North Dakota! She sends a true and tried democrat to the United States senate. This settles the question as to who will control that body. Cleveland’s cabinet appointments are liberally cussed and discussed. Keep cool, gentlemen, Grover is run ning the machine, and he will keep in the middle of the road. The Princess’ Appeal- London, February 18.—Princess Kaiulani sends the following address to the American people: London—To the American peo pie:—Four years ago, at the request ot Thurston, then Hawaiian Cabinet Minister, I was sent away to England to be educated privately and fitted for the position, which, by the cons stitution ot Hawaii, I was to inherit. For all these years I have patiently and in exile striven to fit myself for my return this year to my native country. X am now told that Thrus- ton is in Washington asking you to take away my flag and my throne. -No one tells ne even this, officially. Have I done anything wrong that this wrong should be done me and my people? Iam coming ft Wash ington to plead for my throne, my nation and my flag. Will not the great American people hear me ? Kaiulani. It is the very irony of fate that McKinley should be bankrupted by the failure of a tin plant, an industry which his famous bill was going to build up in this country. The military of Georgia should unite in fighting Hawley’s bill, provides for three years enlistment of state troops and certain other ex« actions repugnant to a volunteer soldiery. General Beauregard died in New Orleans on Monday night. He was the last of the full generals of the war, One by one the grizz'ed heroes pass over the river and rests under the ■hade of the trees. The Billville Banner. All we ask of Mr. Cleveland is that he send us to some foreign country as quick as possible. The vigilance committee is after ns. While our family was away from home we celebrated our silver wed ding and made $3 clear, the mayor having remitted our fine. A heathen from Africa, who has eaten three missionaries, will preach in the town hall to-morrow night. By mistake he swallowed a sermon and was converted on the spot. There are people in this town who think the minister can live a year on one week’s provisions, and lo>k dressed in a black beaver and a coat ot tar and feathers. We got a letter from Mi. Cleveland the other day saying that he had never heard of us. This comes of getting up at daylight and voting six times for one man before the polls were open. Our preacher said during prayer meeting that there was hope for the man who put water in the milk and sand in the sugar, but that the man who puts a tin tobacco tag in the collection basket was damned from the foundation ol the world. Speaking of better roads in Geor gia, Hon. W. A. Huff, of MacoD days: “If the people of Georgia would quit fighting railroads for ten years and go to building dirt roads, they would do more than any one else to sustain the state as an empire within itself.' Dispatches from Topeka say that the republicans will elect a stalwart democrat to supplant Martin, and that democratic senators have agreed to seat him. It makes little diffei ence which faction does the electing 80 that the man chosen is a democrat. Pope Leo XIII has just celebrated his golden jubilee. He was made archbishop fifty years ago. He suc ceeded Pope Pines IX in 1878. Since mounting the pontifical throne, though bereft of temporal power, he has been a central and conspicuous figure in the world’s histoiy. Mr. Cleveland has rented a private residence, and will not occupy the white house for some months. He does not like to expose his family to the danger of taking scarlet fever. It will be rememt^ered that one of President Harrison’s grand children recently had a case of the tever in the white house. Tha Brunswick Times is evidently in earneat about the sanitary condi tion of that city. It says: To the city council: The cholera is coming. It will cover Europe and will probably not be kept out of this countiy. What will you do ahout it! Will you help to keep the town clean? Will you iuyite it by filth and un- cleanUneas? Will you prepare for the wont? x • The wonders of the telephone are increasing. A day or -two since a party in New York listened ton concert in Chicago, distant one thousand miles. The sounds traveled through a copper wire, and were soft, distinct and sweet And only yesterday Boston, 1,250 miles from A Slandor Mill From the following card, which pp pears ivl the Brunswick Times, it would appear that there are some social vampires in that town who should be exterminated : Editor Times: The writer is doubt less peculiarly fortunate in his associ ates, because only recently has he .b?~ come aware of the scandals relating-to social life which affiret-Uhia town. It would appear, however, that some people io Brunswick seem to have gone mad over the imagined moral derelictions of their neighbors. The names of women, good and pure, are bandied about in connection with horribly disgusting scandals, roost of which are utterly without foundation save in the minds of the he devils and the she-devils who concoct them. The writer has been amazed at the indis criminate attacks upon the reputations of many ol the best- women o> the town, and others must feel as he does. Heroic measures ought to be resorted to in order to stop this >hameful busi ness. Some of the Originators and some of the circulators ought to have their brains shot out with leaden slugs from double barrelled shotguns ; and if the writer does not misinterpret the signs, that is just what Is going to hap pen before the days grow much longer, Vindex. The correspondent of the Times, is, perhaps, too severe, and yet the retail slanderer should be puoished in some way. It seems inctedible that people should delight in sowiog seeds of slan der. And yet many communities are inflicted with these pests of society. From a moral, as well as legal stand point, there may be a difference be tween the man or woman who starts a scandal, and the one who repeats it, but the difference is very slight. Of all characters, the busy-bodies who go about with bated breath, scattering and sowing slimy[scandal,are the most despisable, and the most to be feared. They are beyond the pale of the law in most instances, and retail slander as a sweet morsel. Fearful that they will not be the first to tell the tale, they will enjoin secrecy, and then dash into the next, house and repeat the story. In former days, in some of the New England states, scolds were ducked. It no greater punishment, scandal mongers should be ducked, and held under sometime. They should be held under until the bubbles rise at a lively rate. A thoughtless word, an inuendo, a shrug of the shoulders, the raising of the eyebrows, a significant look, a deprecating ges> ture, has blasted many reputation. God has forgiven those who have taken human life, and he may forgive the man or woman who starts or retails slander. Such characters should be outlawed by society, Baleful and destroying weeds, they grow up and flourish alongside the rose and modest violet. Th’s Happened in tha North. Bedford, Pa , Feb. 19. ~ An outrage by •» White Caps” was perpetrated in the suburbs of this town last night, when - a ‘girl was whipped in bed by 20 men and her lover, narrowly escaped a thrashing and a suit of tar and feathers. It was nearing ini luight when a score of men, each wearing a long white mask dropped over his face and each 'carrying a hickory .switch, stopped in front of John Pltaginger’a residence and rapped loudly*at the dcor. . ' Pleasinger himself opened it. One of the White Caps stepped out and said: '• We are looking for Orange Gor don. lie fa in your horn-*', up d quick.” Gordon is a colored man and has for some months been courting Pleas iogerls comely daughter, white girl. The father at the door prepared to relist the invader*), but in aiwinstant four revolvers were at his head he didn't move. . The ineiLpourcd into the houso and some quickly and quietly began to search the lower rooms, while others ascended the steps to the sleeping apartments. But Gordon had gone. When he saw the “White Caps” he had jumped from a rear windew and escaped. Angered by their failure to catch the man, the outlaws broke open the door where the girl lay in bed. She was plucky and stubbornly refused to tell where her lover had gone. Then the men, tearing away the bed clothing, whipped Miss Pleasinger severely with their hickory switches. She screamed, but showed her courage by striking one of the intruder? in the face with her fist, knocking him down. Several of the “White Caps” held her father downstairs, while the main crowd committed the brutal outrage above. They had brought with them a jug of tar and a sack of features with whicii they intended to cover Gordon after thrashing him. No one sus pected ot the crime has yet been ar rested.” What a howl Tin Col. Sheppard, of the Express, would have raised had this happened in the Boulk. O, consistency, thou art, indeed, a most rare jewel. The souvenir half dollars of the World’s Fair, are, already a drug. It was expected that they would all bring one dollar. Only about a half million of them have been sold. The original estimates of the cost of the buildings was ten millions. Now it is said that twenty millions will be re quired before the gates are ready to open. Chicago will flaat more bonds. A World’s Fair comes high, but Chicago is bound to have it. Mr. Morton says that as Secretary of Agriculture he shall give a great deal of attention to the planting of trees. He originated Arbor day, and since then 40,000,000 trees have been planted in Nebraska. He will be satisfied if, during his term of office, he can impress upon the people the necessity for planting trees.—News. The secretary could not serve the country better than by following this course. The destruction of timber in this country is almost criminal. The question of issuing bonds will not down. The cabinet considered it yesterday. Secretary Foster insists on issuing bonds, the President objects. In the meantime the treasury is about bankrupted. Harrison hopes to tide over and turn over a depleted treasury to his successor. General Beauregard will be buried with public honors in New Orleans, this afternoon. He has gone to join to silent majority, gone to join Lee, Tohnson. Hood, Forrest, Morgan, and the long line ot heroes who preceded him to the great beyond. Lewis Redwine, assistant cashier of the Gate City National Bank, Atlanta, has defaulted for a large amount and skipped. Lewis looked on the wine when it was red. The remains of Mr. Davis will be re-buried in Richmond, on the 30th ol Maj. The occasion will draw thous ands to witness the final burial of Jeff Davis. Machinery and Labor. Mr. Carroll D. Wright, United States Labor Commissioner, in an address delivered to young men in New York spoke as follows on the effect of machinery on labor interests: It may be said that machinery has increased the number of unemployed. This, I think, is not true. England has the most machinery and the great est ratio of people employed to popu lation. Russia has the least machin ery, and the greatest ratio of unem ployed. Machinery means the sur vival of the greatest number in the reatest comfort. Wages have doubled since the day of hand work, and while prices of some necessities have increased, most have decreased. Referring to this, the Philadelphia Record says:. The prejudice against machinery has largely passed away with the diffusion of education. Gradually the truth has dawned—and not so much from the light shed by “college professors” as from the observations of daily experience—that machinery has not made harder the struggle for existence, but that its effect has been distinctly in the contrary direction. It is worth remembering, too, that few have contributed more to the multiplication of inventions than intelligent workmen themselves, who are best situated for perceiving op portunities for labor-saving devices, and who instinctively feel in intro ducing them that they are helping not themselves only, but science and humanity as well. Princess Kaulanl Coming. London, February 22.—Princess Ivaulani, the heires3 to the throne of Hawaii, sailed to-day for New York on the steamer Teutonic. The prin cess was accompanied by Theophelus Davies, his wife and daughter and Miss Whartoff. George Birthrogton’s Washday was very generally observed. Columbus had to take a back seat on the 22nd. We hope Judge Jackson will not be in a hurry about sending in bis resigna tion to the President. Alabama’s example in adopting the Aus.ralian ballot should be followed by Georgia. George A. Jenks, of Pennsylvania, it is said, has been appointed attorney general. The houss got into a tangle and re mained in session all night, on Tues day night. A bent pin placed in a chair is sure indication of an early spring. The Cabinet Completed. Lakewood, N. J, February 22.— President elect Cleveland announced this evening that he had completed his cabinet by the selection of Rich ard Olney, of Boston, for Attorney General, and Hilary A. Herbert, of Alabama for Secretary of the Navy. The complete cabinet is as follows: WaHer Q. Gresham, of Illinois, Secretary of State. John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky, Secretary of the Treasury. Daniel S. Lauiont, of New York, Secretary of War. Hilary A. Herbert, of Alabama, Secretary of the Navy. Iloke Smith, of Georgia, Secretary of the Interior, J. Sterling Morton, of Nebraska, Secretary of Agriculture. Wilson S. Bissel, of New York, Postmaster General. Richard Olney, of Massachusetts, Attorney General. Will Stand by His Convictions. Referring to the independence of Mr. Cleveland, ihe Augusta Chronicle says: “It may be written now in adyance that Mr. Cleveland will be the Presi dent of the next administration, and there will be no premier or other pow er behind the throne to dictate its policy or practice. Mr. Cleveland knows there is no third term for him, and even if he were subject to such an influence, the hope of re-election is removed from him. His only aim therefore will be to make a great record for his administration, and it is sate to say that he will devote the best energies of his life to the problems of government now confronting this na tion. The achievements of the Cleve land administration will not be handi capped by policy or precedent, but will be bounded only by the possi bilities of Mr. Cleveland’s head and heart. He may be written down as a non-preccdent President.” Heaviest Snow in Years. Pottsville, Pa , Feb. 22.—The heaviest snow storm for many years has been in progress throughout the coal region since seven o’clock last evening, and this morning it has reached a depth of fourteen inches at this point, while in some places here abouts is reported eighteen to twenty inches. A brisk storm sprung up and the snow is drifting badly in all quarters.. Railroad trains are badly delayed while the collieries about the region are entirely suspended. The Schuylkill Electric Railway connect ing Pottsville and outlying towns is completely, snowed under and no cars are able to run. The storm continues unabated.” The Savannah Press gives the fofa lowing good advice: “TKe great mass of appointments to be made in the executive departments are under the civil service rule. The surest way to get a position under the federal gov ernment now is to prepare for a thorough civil service examination and to score a high average. WHAT A-VISITOR SAYS. • Visitor Writes up Glen ArveD, Greenwood, Cleveland "Park, Elsoma and Other Points ; . of Interest. Editor Times-Enterprise. If my noted impressions of Thomas- ville arc worthy'of publication, please find place for them in the columns of your very readable and well conduced daily. This, Thy first visit to your beauritut little trty. has ’mpreved me mast favorably toward the place as a resort for hose who would and can flee from the hardship** and rgnrs of our extn me Northern winters. The climate hereabout is unsurpassed. For those rot in good health, I derm it most favorable, wh'le l»»r the strong and healthful it fa, simply, enough! To be able to ride or drive or walk almost every day is a blessing and a boon! I have derived much pleasure from my visits to the notable places in Thomasville and its environs, and i hope I shall not be thought obtrusive il I mention some of them particularly. The names chosen to distinguish these several places havo struck me as being most fit and happily selected. “Glen Arvea” for example, the name given to the beau ilul Bark which J. Wyman Jones, Esq, has in his gener osity and liberality thrown open to the public. Ooe may visit Glen Arven many times without exhausting its beauties. Good roads have been made through it in every direction and a wilderness has been changed into a thing of beauty a- joy forever.” The ground is partially cultivated, but the charm of the place consists main ly in its “native wood growth wild.” Mr. Jones is, I am told, a retired banker from New York, and a many many times millionaire, and delights in spending his princely income in such a way as to confer most good on otheiB. Indeed from what has been said to me about this gentleman I con dude the name J. AVyman Jones is a a synonym for charity, liberality,^gen erosity and kindness. Cleveland Park, the winter home of of Mr. John W. Masury, of Hew York, is about three miles out on the Bainbridge road. The proprietor, a well known manufacturer, retired from active participation in his extensive business some fifteen or twenty years ago: and since that time has travelled all over the world. He is a*man of books, acd his library at Cleveland Park is of itself well worth a visit. His reading is extensive and his won derful memory enables him to quote whole poems out ot books which he has not seen for more than sixty years. When in the mood he shows except ional conversational power, and it was with amazement and delight that listened to his discourse as I sat with him in] his gorgeous library filled with choicest books in richest bind ing. The roads and drives at Cleve land Park are tree to strangers and citizens alike and all are welcome who can find pleasure therein. The mansion itself is* an architectur al poem, the exterior being of grand proportions, while the interior finish and decorations must be seen to be fully appreciated. As I followed the owner through the many rooms, new beauties were revealed at alraokt every step. The hall is finished in quartered oak panelled all the way to the top floor and the stairwiy is mag nificent 1 \ The furniture and hanging draperies are rich and costly, and were all made to order by the best houses in New York City. The title, too, is most ap propriate and the whole does honor to the great man whose name it bears. Greenwood, name suggestive of Robin Hood and his merry man, is the title of another winter home of a New York raillionaire,S. R. VanDuzer, E«q.,a name well and favorably known in commercial circles in the great city. Mr. VanDuzer finds occupation for his dignified leasuie in improving and beautifying his two elegant peaces. The city residence of this gentleman is in common vie v and so requires only a passing notice. Greenwood was the home of one of the oldest settlers in Southern Georgia. This part of Georgia, as is indicated by the family names hereabout, was settled mostly by emigrants from Scotland and Wales; and, no better setlers are there than these Scotch men and Welshmen. Among the first settlers was the Jones family. CXarum ct venerabile nomen. This particular Jones estate was pur chased by Mr. VanDuzer who has, I am told; very much improved' and beautified it. Of this, however, I speak only from heresay, as I was forbid' den to pass the entrance by a sign board of such proportions that the “wayfaring man though a fool,” could not mistake the intention of the owner. Eisoma, another pretty name, is the title to the residence ot Mr. J. Wyman Jones, situated about two miles from town on the Tallahassee road. The main bouse is a one story building of the common kind hereabout, quite without ornament and with no pre tension to architectural features. Oat buildings have been added lrom time to time to suit the needs or conveni ence of the owner. These many and bizirre .structures are homogeneous in color and are bright and pretty with their newly applied coating of buff colored paint, and present to the beholder a tout ensemble not alto gethcr uopicturesque. y About six miles opt on the Duncan ville road . one comes to another old Jones residence. This planta tion is how* t am told, the property of Mr. Ohsries Chapin, a son of Mrs. J; Wyrnan Jones. To get at *the name of this place has beaten 'all my efforts. ’ A ^igo board nailed high up 00 a tree in the road »ra* pointed out to roe as bearing ■the name ot the place. The writing on t^'s board reads thu*: “Chasse imerdite ” Chaste is French for all kinds of.chasc or hunting, both with horses mid dogs, or without either. Interriite fa, 1 known not what, not English nor Latin nor Greek Frene)*. A gentleman whose acquain tance 1 made at my hotel, suggested that the sign board was a notice against trerpass. This I explained would not hold, as the greatest ignor amus smong sign painters would not print such a notice in one known and one uoknown language. Aoother sug gested that the laoguage was “old cracker” dialect, and the meaning: Hogs, dogs and lean Kine, sont defew dre d enlre ici, and -that a notice against trespass written in French would be properly, Chasse defender or Chasse inierdit. Notwithstanding these explanations, 1 must adhere to the first proposition, that “Chasse Interdtte” is the new name lor the old place. Another pretty outlying cottage lately built for Mr. Parsons, of St. Louis, may be seen on the old Monti* cello road. This will be attractive when the newness shall have worn off and the grounds shall have been im proved. In the same neighborhood may be seen a new and substantial one story cottage, recently buili for Mr. Dana. The writer’s conclusions are that the future of Thomasville lies in its unrivaled climate and the inducement it holds cut as a winter resort for those who, sick or well, are compelled, either from choice or necessity, to get away from the severe c^ld of our Northern climate. Every home built and occupied by such people is a benefaction to the place, and the humblest inhabitant must receive more or less good therefrom. Visitor. Sold. Toy C'u.rtxlg'ii.t Pa.xa.iel- L. F.
