Manager Davies, of the Pmey Woods Hotel, is daily receiving vari ous inquiries from parties in the North who desire to spend the winter here. The prospects for a big crowd this year is indeed flattering. Mi. B. F. McFarland, a former well known citizen ot ThomasviUe but now. a prosperous farmer near Fort White, Fla., came up yesterday. His ThomasviUe friends are glad to see him looking so welt and to learn that the world is using his lightly. The Month Georgia College is rapidly iucreasing its numbers. Seven pupils wero added to it jester*, day. This shows that its popularity and success is assured. Col. Lynes and Miss B jatie Merrill have divided Professor Roddenbery’s work until his return.

It is unusual to see white men on the chain-gang, but when they do wrong they should ba given the same medi** cine as is administered to others. The law, very properly, is uo respecter of persons. Mr. W. H. Campbell, who has been filing the position' of quarantine in spector since the quarantine law was first put iu force, resigued hit position yesterday. He has accepted a posi tion as prescription clerk with the Cabiu Drug Store, and starts in upon his new duties this morning. Mr. T. J. Bottoms has been pat on the quarantine in his stead.

The four prisoners sentenced ta«*t Friday to the penitentiary were taken ot! ye.sterday morning by Dr. Sims a penitentiary guard, who was sent here by ihe principal keeper of the *^1601- tentiary for them. The prisoners, Isaac Beard, Walter Odom, Charley Spanish and Charley Washington, were chained together and securely fattened in the car, and there is no doubt but what they will be carried safely to their destination. Walter Odom and Isaac B-ard go up for life, -fudey Spanish will spend the next wenty y ars in laboring for the state, while Cnarley Washicgton has only two years t o serve. All but the latter will doubtless be carried to the coal mines in Dade county. Hon. Ben E. Russell. This gentleman stopped over yeas terday to see and shake hands with his ThomasviUe friends.

Deputy Sheriff A., T. driest, of Citrus county, Fla, came up a day or two ago after Plummer, the negro murderer, who was arrested about a month ago by SheriflDoea, and left yesterday with his prisoner. Plum mer is wanted in Florida for murders ing a deputy sheriff. . The crime is said to bave been a very cold blooded one and there is very little jjloubt bat that. the negro wilt stretch hemp.

It is to be hoped the even ing trains to and from Savannah will soon be restored. The epidemic is practically at an end. The quarantine will soon be re moved, and with a revival of business over the Savannah, Fior d* and West ern the return of the night trams is anxiously awaited. The mail* are delayed. Travel is inconvenienced. Communication with points in South Georgia has almost been suspended. The slow move ment of letters and papers, the inter* ruption to passenger travel has been very serious. Letters from Valdosta have been known tb go to Jacksonville, thence up into Georgia by the Georgia South ern railroad, and fioal'y into Savan nah by slow and tortuous routes. This .thing should be speedly reroe* died. Let us have prompt improvements in the train service on this grelt high* way. The people are tired of the crippled service. They ask its resto* ration. Savannah has suffered by this withdrawal of important trains. The Press hopes to chronicle the return of these trains in a very few days.—Sa vannah Press. Savannah is not the only town in* convenience! by the taking off of five and six. ThomasviUe feels it severely. The way the trains have been running fur the past two or three weeks it requires about two days time to go to Savannah. This is a great draw back to business and we sincerely hope the old schedule, will soon be restored.

Mi. R. W. Giadiog, the 'popular and polite southern agent of the fa mous Monon Route, returned from a three days frtp to Florida yesterday on the noon train. He says the weath er is very warm and dry in the Land of Flowers, but that business is pick* mg up rapidly. Every train over the Georgia Southern railroad carries a solid load ol people to Florida. This road seems to have the upper hand of the Plant System in the way ot north ern travel so far this season.

To the County School Commissioners 0/ Georgia: So many" inquiries, asking for per mission to begin the schools tor 1894 the first of November, reach this de partment, that I deem it my duty to issue this circular for your informa tion and^ guidance. The School Laws in unequivocal terms makes the school year and the calendar year co-incident. This pro* vision baa been emphasized by the re fosal of- the General :Assembly to change the date of commencement of the scholastic year to the first of No* yember as was proposed. It would indeed bora “leap in the dark” to commence the public term now, when no man out tell what the funds for 1894 ^riU be, what the length of the termjrill be, what new conditions may' be imposed by the. Legislature soon to. assemble, or what changes.in exiating*lawB may be made. Some important alterations and ad* ditions Will be recommended to the General Assembly, which we trust will.meet with their approbation and become law; and np school before theselacts are made known by this departmefit could possibly reap any benefits from these proposed amend* meats. As the officer charged with the ad ministration of the school laws, I can not authorize any school to begin the public term new, or consent to any arrangement for November and De cember to be counted in as a part of the school year of ’94. I instruct you, the County School Commissioners and the Members of the Boards of Education, not to make any arrangements, whatever, for. the schools lor 1894 until instructions are is wed from the Department of Edu cation. . The circular contaiuing«full direc tions will be issued on the first day of January, which is the earliest date that authorizes ma to give you notice, as to the approximate amount of the School laud. Let us hope that the circular in question will contain in formation that will make 1894 a mem orable year in the history of popular education in Georgia. S. D. Braswell, S. S. C. The Repeal Bill Finally Passed. The silver repeal bill, over which the Senate so long wrangled and of the nature of which all our readers are familiar,- has finally. passed both house*, and has received the Presi dent’s signature. It was taken up by the house shortly alter noon on Wednesday and after nearly three hours of fillibustering passed by a vote of 193 to .94. The Georgia members voted as .follows: GEN. CLEMENT A. Eli® HIS ADMIRABLE ADDRESS TO THE VETERANS. He-Appeals fo<* Organization and Sug gests a Form of Constitution For U. C. V. Camps. •EKATK VETERANS. > October, 1893/ Q Cieeular'Xo. 1. • . - The Major“ General commanding the Georgia Division of Confederate Veterans Associations takes this method of submitting to the attention of All Confederate association, and Confederate comrades In Georgia the following explanation of Confederate Survivors Associations, and' the plan by which it is proposed to make them’ permanently useful to thp State, and he requests a . careful reading an<T preservation of this circular. 1. From the time when the Confed erate soldier returned from his battle fields to rebuild', under adversity, the wasted wealth of his State, it has bedn felt that associations should bo formed among those who had become brothers indeed in the, tria’s of four years of war. Accordingly many such frater nities were organized and the reanion of old comrades from year to year have proven tp be occasions of de lightful and increasing, interest But the time has come when there is a demand that these associations should be made more general, more practis cal, and become the, agencies, through which the best memories of our great struggle for principle should be pre served and handed down as authentic bis’ory to prosperity. 2. To meet this demand the organ ic rti >n known as the 1 United Confed erate Veterans was formed and each State was constituted a division with Xf»j*»r General appointed to the nmand. In accordance with this general plan the Major General com manding the Georgia Division is pro ceeding to organize Confederate As sociations in every couoty in Georgia with the assistance of his staff and County Aides, together with the cor dial co-operation cf his Confederate comrades The movement has met with univer^ sal favor and in a short onr hopes will be realized by the forma tion ofu good working camp in every couuty. 3. It will b8 distinctly noted that no political or sectarian discussions are allowed and that the worthy ob* jects are strictly fraternal, peaceful, historical, patriotic and benevolent. Ail Confederates who did any service for the South, will be gathered to gether with their wives, their sons and their daughters, in a common pur- mtereet of a high iodal character. Our sons and daughters are deeply interested in the story of the war, and these occaaions will foster their reverence for that exalted patriotism which inspired their father’s to offer life for imperiled liberty. \ 7.

The bill was engrossed immediately, and in twenty minutes, at 3:10 o’clock, the formal announcement was made to the Senate that its amendment had been agreed to by the House. The bill was hurriedly enrolled by Chair man Pearson, of the committee on en rolled bills, and at 3:30 o’clock was presented to Speaker Crisp for his signature. A fleet-footed messenger cirriedjt to the Senate, where it was signed two minutes later by Vice* President Stevenson. Chairman Pear-; son, with the bill under his arm,' en tered a carriage waiting for him on the p’aza in front of the capitol and drove rapidly to the white house. The President had been kept duly ad vised of the progress of events. A LIST OF THE VOTERS. Indeed ho manifested so much interest in the vote ia the House that at his request a duplicate of the names of those who had voted for and against concurrence was made soon after the roll call was completed, and thiaJist was lying on his desk when Mr. Pearson arrived with the bill. Secretary Carlisle, Attorney General Olney and Private Secretary Thurber were present. After felicitating with each other for a few moments over the victory that had. been achieved, the President took up the engrossed copy of the bill and read it aloud. Then picking up a quill pen he affixed his autograph at 4:25 o'clock. And thus sixty-five days, four hours and twen ty five minutes after the extraofdinary session convened the remedy of the financial distress which Mr. Cleveland demanded in his message was applied. The vexed question u settled and it is to -be hoped that all bitterness that may-have been engendered by the long strife will subside and that unity of sentiment and concert of ac tion may prevail in the democratic ranks. The party has many ^pledges enunciated in the platform to fulfill and the party should poll itself solid ly together for the work. The Georgia Legislature. ; The home has passed a bill to in. crease the number of supreme court judges from.three to five. The bill passed by a votc of r26"to at. The fioaince* committee has ageed to report adversely on the bill to Jo- crease the salarys of superior court judges from $2,000 to $2,500. Mr. Norman, of Colquitt, has intro duced a bill to prohibit the 'sejmng.of creeks and pondsJn that caualy. The senate, after some discussion on the cigarette bill, voted* to re commit it. ^ out cherishing, any section’ll animosi ties whatsoever. The history of the great war will be gathered from the recollections of the private so’dier and citizen as well as from the officers and records, so that posterity will learn the thrilling facts from the actors themselves who made the history. The spirit of patriotism which de scended to us from our heroic ances- tory will be transmitted to our chil dren through which alone can be maintained our theory of popular government. 4. In order to carry out ihjse noble purposes an appeal is now made to all Confederates to form one sub stantial organization at least in every county in Georgia without de’ay. To do this let the following practical stepe be taken by two or more com rades in each county where uo asso ciation has beerf formed: Issue a call through your local newspapers, all of which hav$ gener ously aided our cause for a meeting of all Con federates residing in the country, to be held- at a designated day at the county .site. When as sembled and a temporary chairman being appointed have the objec’s of the meeting explained and adopt a constitution after the form appended to tbu circular, with such changes as local circumstance* may require. After addresses have been made choose an early-date for the next meeting, appoint committees, and let all parties go enthusiastically to work. 5. The Constitution hereto append ed will be> sufficient general guide, hot jn addition it is suggested. that the Historical Committee should be composed of men from all command and all parts ot the county and should be divided into several sub*cgmmit tees under the direction of the His torian. It is the duty of this Com mittee to compile complete rolls of. aU companies from the county, and all individuals who went from the county into service and also those now resid ing in it. The domestic history of the county should be writ-ten to show what was done at home to sustain the Southern cause. The fact most also appear that the material and . moral welfare of-the county since this was built up by Confederates and their children. While fully appreciating the fraternal citizenship among ns all we know- that the South owes its prosperity to Southern enterprise, and we believe that it has resources now developing, which inll make it the great influential section of the Union, The recoid when completed should be placed in the custody of the ordinary or clerk of the superior court. 6. The Annual Reunion should be ■ made an occasion of general oounty our Confederate sympathies peculiar to people who are conscious of the purest patriotism in the brave at tempt of the South to assert by arms their faith in constitutional free, gov ernment. Time will soon bear away every Confederate soldier from earth j but his fame will not fail unless the love of liberty andjieroism die out among men. . We are still strong in energies, in numbers and in glorious purpose to promote the welfare of the “Land we Love,” and/we will con* tinue our efforts' to the last. Then we shall have the happiness tb -torn over to onr children a splendid state redeemed from all vestiges of war,- prosperous in every section, as the noblest heritage that ever fell to any generation. 8. Confederate comrades of Geor gia I You are earnestly urged to co operate in this movement and give yonr patriotic assistance to the pur pose of perpetuating the true story of Georgia’s illustrious part in the Con federate War, and of recording the history of those efforts in peace, which are bringing a notable prosperity to the State.

The several recent attempts to mur der and murders of rich men and con- troling spirits by cranks, suggest the question, what is responsible for these unprovoked and cold blooded* crimes? Of course the primary -cause is a diseased mind/bat that U not all. A diseased appetite and‘moral weakness create a love for whiskey, hot association alone makes the drun kard, There is not a case On record where a man became a drunkard that “ever took a drink except by himself and in the privacy of his own cham ber. It is the congeniality, and similarity of tastes He finds in bar room companions "that creates the sympathy and temporary pleasure that ta^es him froMMushomeand family at night' to TEe ratoons, and. kindred institutions and lands him in the gutter and police station before morning. ’ • Just so with the crank, who, with- out provocation, slays, in a mad mo ment, the man who happens to be the object of abuse and hate of his daily companions. The primary responsi bility for these crimes is a disordered mind, but it is associations-that des ▼elops its dangerous qualities, and turns in the direction of the bloody crime, which, in too many cases, has been the result. -There is too much unwholesome and incendiary agitation in this couns try. Too much abase of prominent men by business and political enemies for selfish purposes. Words of abuse from political or business opponents, though they be uttered for a purpose altogether selfish, and their author may know that he is lying -in 'a gen teel way, are not understood' by ig norant people such as those who would rob a fellow-man of his life on an imaginary provocation, and make on their minds a deep and dangerous impression. > Cease useless agitation. Eliminate personalities from polit ical and business rivalry both by the press and the people and there will be no more such crimes as the foul assassination of Mayor Carter Har rison. The abuse of one piomiuent man "in business or politics by another with a labor agitator or ward politician or two to scotch up when off alone with his ignorant companions excites envy, jealousy, hatred and desperation till the man who has already a morbid mind thus poisoned believes it his Christian duty to end the career of the blunt*of the abuse constantly poured into his ears and finds pleasure in an evil and an insane moment in sacrificing his own life and that of a fellow being to carry out what his burning .brain and diseased mitd leads him to believe is his duty and a service to his imaginary oppressed and ill used brother. One of the fundamental principles of this government is the right of free speech, but free lying and abus ing, free insanity and free murder is quite another thing. Iu many cases the greatest developers and greatest pub ic men are the worst abused ot all God’s earthly crealuies by their business and political oppo nents, and the iguorant classes of the opposition believe every derogatory sentence utteied and form their opin ions and act according’y. This is a bad state of affairs and is growing worse, and as there is no question as to the root of the evil, the remedy must be applied.—Macon News. Local Bill.
