Speaking idculmt* an » x rt» w on of congress the Prts'deni s'«ys : ‘•While th* re has been no mystery or secrecy in regard to iny urention in this matte r, 1 think it oot amiss tha; our'people should be informed au hor- ita «v«rly that the time is at hand when their r» pr*>cntjtiri s in congress will be calho on to d al with the financial condition, whichi* the on ! y menace to the concert’* welfare and prosperity. It is well for our people to take up the subject for thtmselves and arrive at their conclusions as' to the ro< fits of the financal policy which obliges us to purchase idle silver bullion with gold taken from our rc*e»v«\ One does not need the eye of -a financier to see that this gold thus subtracted from the govtroment’s stock is eagerly se-zvd by othtr nations for the purpose o! »trt ngihenmg their own credit at our expense. It dots not net d the art of minship to detect the danger that awaits upon the continuance of this operation. Already the limidi’v of capital is pai nfully apparent and none of us can fad to see that fear and ap prehension in monetary circles will ultimately bring suffering to every humble home in cur land. ‘•I think that between now and the meeting of congress much depends on the action of those engaged in finan cial operations and business c es. Our vast naticnal resources and credit are abundantly sufficienuo just ify them in ihe utmost fiuh and con fidence. If instead of being frighten ed they are conservative, and if insTeat of being gloomy anticipating rhsas't they contribute their share of hop, and steadiness they will perform j patriotic duty aid at the same 1 m protect iheir owu m erest. The tl.injrr needed just now are coolness and calmness in financial circles, and study and refine.ion among our people. Reply iug to a criticism ol a Boston paper on the condition of the negro at the South, the Atlanta Constitu tion plains this blow squarely between the optics of the Busting” esteemed uietnporary: ‘ And, by the way, what are you outsiders doing lor the negro?

The south points to her well-fed, well housed, happy aod -prosper, us back population as a compile an swer to the scurrilous ravings of Mah papers as the Boston News. Down this way we give every law-abidirg negro employment and protection. Our white workingmen do not com bine to drive him out of any occupa tion and our statesmen do not try to rob him ot tho-ballot, nor do they pro pose to banish him. Until the out siders can make a better showing iley shou’d mind their own business.” idlplu Well, the pc occasionally ? Consumptives Cured. Hew Yobk, June 6.—The Recor der details to-day the cure of several consumtive patients at Ward’s Island under the direction of the city author ities. As only charity patients in the last stages of-consumption are admit ted there, the Recorder claims that the cure for which it awarded Dr. \Vi R. Atuick cf Cincinnati $1,000 h»s ace.nuplished something miracu lous. It says also that the Cincinnati doctor has agredd'to keep the hospital supplied with medicine sufficient for a-1 its consumptive cases at his own expense. As only third-stage cases are admitted, there, no more severe test could be invited. While it is ad mitted that the Amick discovery is a certain specific in the earlier stages of consumption, Dr. Amick has never heretofore claimed that it wouM cure more than SO per cent of third stage consumptives. In'this test juit made by the city three out of four were either cured or astonishingly bene fited. It is easy enough for the sufferers from the disease to test the new dis covery through their family physi cians,for Dr. Amick tenders medicines for the purpose free of cost, and he invites impartial tests of it by the edical profession everywhere. If the above be true' it will be a great boon to buffering humanity. Doctors, in the main, agree that when the lungs ate firmly within the grasp of the fatal disease, there is little or no chance for a permanent cure. Atlanta, Ga., June 6,—The past seven days have been more kind to the J arm era of Southern Georgia than to tho.-e of other portions of the state. I u the more northerly districts exces sive rains have fallen and done much damage by washing lands and beating down crops. Iu the south, on the other hand, the rains have been no more than were needed and have been interspersed with intervals of hoi and growing weather. Crops are ow, as a rule, in a good average >n.iai»n throughout the state, only little late. Cotton, however, forms 1 exception, aud can hardly reach a normal state this year under the most able conditions. This statement, u'J be remembered, applies to t ie condition of growth and takes no account of increased acreage, which must be considered io determining ot the crop. “blue t city, does top out liis trial I robbed Utile Little robbers Harry Hill is b Atlanta.

Yts, the calamity howhrs will be getting in thtir work again next y In fact they are already at it; but the people, many of them, who v tooled by these place hunters last y will not be fooled by them a second time. The democratic party is the party of the people, and it will give them an honest, economical adminis tration. A lead ng Northern paper lays: Tne honest veterans, who are entis tied to pensions under the laws cf the United States, will receive every dol lar they are entitled to. It is in the; interest that the reforms are made. Under democratic administration hon est pensioners will not be required to m'.side waiting while political pensioners are served. The honest pensioners will get fair acd liberal treatment, and the political and dis honest pensioners wid get exact justice. The less consideration shown to the undeserving the more attention can be paid to the cases of those who merit attention.

Constantinople, June 5 —Re- >rts from several cities of Asiatic Turkey sty that cholera has appeared a many districts aud is now spread- ag rapidly. Along the lower Tigris ud the Shat-El-Arub river people re dying by thousand'. Whole vil lages have been deserted by those !g fiom the pest." The pauic has become so great that lew fatni'ies wait iry their dead or even to nurse sick, but flee to the next towns cape infection. Fugitives from stricken towns are spreading the epidemic with appalling rapidity. Letters from Bassora City say that 0,000 persons have fled from Bassora province alone. The tide of pension reform is ris- ug. The Grand Army Gazette, , the •fiieial organ ol that great organiza- ou, eayt: “What is asked fur—aye, demand d— is that the pension list shall be niuutely examined. No honest pen- siouer will resist that; Le will not be considered honest if he does. Then ivery dishonest case, if such be fouud, ba wiped from the rolls. This is only fair aud right to the people of ihe laud, the people who pay taxes.” Hoke Smith hit the key note when he struck out for pension reform. New York, June 7, 2 a. m.—Ed- u Booth, the great tragedian, quiet ly passed away at his apartments in the Players* Club, at 1:15 o’clock this uing. At his bedside at the time - Mr. aud Mrs. Grossman, Lis sou in-law and daughter, his physician Dr. St. Clair Smith, Supt. McGoni- glc, William Bispham, an intimate friend, and Charles Farryell. The death of the renowned actor, which had been expected at any time during the past ten days, was very peaceful, bung scarcely noticeable to the anxi ous watchers at his bedside. John B. Gordon.

Here is what a nor h rn pap,r, the Philadelphia Record, says about a re cent lynching : •Yesterday morning a negro thirty* three years old, accused of assaa’ting two white woin?n, was taken from jail by a body of t wenty-five armed men, and hangtd 10 a telegraph pole standing directly in front of the court house. A crowd of nearly 20 >0 ^eop’e witnessed the lynching, yet none raised hand or voice in interference. This oc curred not in the south,But at Decatur in central Illinois, scarcely 200 miles from Chicago. The crime for which this man suffered death at the hands of a mob has been repeatedly visited with this sort of wild retribution. Urged on by uncdntrolable rage and resentment, the mob satiates its thirst for vengeance without delay and with out fear of consequences. Much as these exhibitions of lawlessness are to be deplored, they can be permanently checked only by removing the inciting cause. “Let the assassins begin, then!” cried Volta ; re when the orators of France were shouting ‘ Down with crpital punishment!” Noshing can excuse or condone the substitution of mob violence ior the orderly forms of law; but in avenging the outrage of a white woman by a negro the most law abiding citizen throws statutes and ordinances to the wind.” Tii.m \svii.l*.

A. P. Wright Adopted. Mr. Chairman: Your committee appointed to draft mem orial resolutions on the death of Col, A. P. Wright beg to s.nbmit the following ; In May 1877, Col. Wright'was appointed a member of the board of county commis sioners of tiis connty. His superior ability being well known, and his wonderful exe cutive powers and bis staunch firm attitudi for right being lu! y recognized and appre dated by his brother members of said board, he was elected by them, chairman, which position he has filled continuous'y Jill his death. It was indeed aol an envious position, but one of great responsibility, and we dare say few men could hare filled the office for so long a time with as much credit to them selves, and with as great good resulting to the whole county from h's patriotic aud unselfish administration of its affairs, lamented brother chairman. Public spirited, wise and prudent, Col. Wright, Was ever alert to the needed provements and material advancement of every interest of the county, keeping to bis heart at the same time the fact that the burdens of taxation on the people should bo aa light as possible. 15 years ago our county was in debt, our public buildings a disgrace to the county, our bridges poorly kept up, and yet our people were paying an advalorem tax more than double of what it is now. How do we find the county’s condition to-day? By a wise and prudent mansgtment ot the peo ple’s money, our court house, jail aud bridges have been made to compare favorably with those of any county in the state, tar superior to many, and an ornament to the connty, our county virtuaUy ont of debt, and all this improvement made on a steadily redneed advalorem tax noli! to-day, no connty in the state levies a lower rate of taxation and bat few of them as low. We rny it unhesitatingly, that to Cel. Wright more credit is due for tb; : management, this flattering condition of the county’s affairs to-day, th tn to .any other one citizen. He loved bis country, an 1 he chcerfnUy gave his time and bis talents without renumeration to her every interest, and it was his pride and his ambition to manage her affairs tnst the greatest pood should be derived from the least expendi ture, and if ever he erred it was a mistake of the heed and not ot the heart.
