Two coaches and a sleeper were packed and jammed with returning refugees. The engine and train were decorated with flagp, handkerchiefs were waving from the windowe, and the train pulled up to the depot amidst shouts and cheers from a large crowd of people. Philadelphia Times (Ind. Dem.): Relief is at hand for American indus try from the burden of monopoly lax ation by which it is now paralyzed. Free raw materials, cheapened pro duction, enlarged consumption, with wider markets—this is the only policy that can revive our manufactures and give employment to our working men. This is the policy the people have demanded and that is now assured lo them. The new tariff policy is thus full of hope for every branch of American industry. It is a policy of unimpeded expansion and growth, in which all can share, as against a policy of cod dling and contraction that benefits the few at the expense of the many. It is an American policy. It will open to this great country, with its infinite resources, the markets of the world. It will start up our factories, revive onr commerce and carry Ameri can nr- ducts and American influence everywhere. We take the following ex truer from readable letter written hy Congress- lab Russnil to the B.-uubrHgo Dew- «>crat: ‘ . • ‘ Mr. Cleveland is working hard upon Ms message to Congress and hence is doing very little in the way of appointments. • He pledged- himself to give Judge Underwood, of Camilla, a go-id con sulate in • Germany sometime ago, apd bojrill no doubt do so when Con gress meete.

This is one instance, and a rare one, when that thriving city would like to lose its grip. The press of the state, as a very general thing, endorses the proposi tion to hold a constitutional conven tion. Mrs. Corbett has gone to Florida in advance of her husband. She will probably know him alter his fight with Mitchell. „ The yellow fever epidemic Brunswick may be said to be practi cally over. Surgeon Murray has re moved the guards and all are free to enter Brunswick. The trains re sumed their regular schedules this morning. Surgeon Murray says there is no possible danger from citizens of Brunswick leaving there and coming in contact with other people. A watch will be kept on clothing and bedding coming out of the stricken city. A few more cases may occur but the doctors say they will be sporadic and that no danger need be feared from them. intii howling nt Mr. Cleve- n” silver, has has t Harry 12 i.l in Altai t .

London, Nov. 29.—A dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company from Rio de Janeiro, says that Admiral DeMdlo has left Rio with several o! his swiftest war ships, in order to in* tercept the new ships which are on their way to reinforce President Pex- oto. The dispatch adds that great excitement prevails at Rio d: Janeiro, and tt is believed tha; a great nav-<l battle will shortly be fought off the Brazilian coast. St. Paul, Mum., Nov. 30.—A co’d wave of great severity is sweeping in from tho northeast The signal serv ice reports iudicate that the tempera ture to-day will be far below zero at all points from Helena to Milwaukee. Thanksgiving was more generally observed throughout the South on Thursday, than ever before. It is fast growing in jpopulanty do-vn here. The South will soon rival New England in the observance of the day. Monday’s New York Herald printed six columns of telegrams showing that in every section mills are starting up, trade is increasing, labor is finding employment and everything is cn the up grad.;, s<ys the Constitution Probably no city in the country celebrated thanksgiving day more heartily than did Brunswick. The fact that tho black pali of death which has hung over tha: city for months haa been lifted, was enough to make any people thankful With the great retains being inaus gurated aud carried ou: by the demo cratic party, the country will take cn new life and an era of prosperity will come down from Canada t3 California and from the m-zen North to the orauge fringed stre ams of Florida. Governor Non hen has issued a requisition for Harry Hid, who is be ing held by the police in Cincinnati. 'The grand jury ol Fu’to a county found two true hills against the festive Har ry yesterday. It looks like he would be brought back to Georgia. One would infer from the tone cf Governor 'HUman’s message to the legislature of South Carolina, that the governor was ruffled about something. His dispensary plan is giving him much trouble. And then tho rails roads and courts are not run to suit him. , ; •Don’t you,” said the pious landlady to the boarder, ' believe that all flesh is grass 7” "No,” hesitated the boarder, as be took another hold ou his knife, T think some of it is leather.”— Detrrit Free Press. f* The session of the legislature is rapidly drawing to a close.- A dts> patch from Atlanta say?; The House adopted a resolution to day that the House have a night session Monday night, and it is pos sible that night sessions will be held all ot next week. Mr. Calvin, of Richmond, intro-, duced a resolution on the same line, to expedite business, which was refer- ed to the committee on rules, proyid*- mg that hereafter no leaves of absence shall be granted to members except for providential causes. The committee on the penitentiary handed in their report to-day on the bill introduced by Mr. Marlin to eas tablish a reformatory. It unanimous ly recommended that the bill be pass ed. The committee on education re ported against the bill to have uniform system of school book?, but a minority report was made, recom mending that the House pass a btl ro e stablish a uniform set of books lo be taught in the public schools. Colonel Eugene Speer writes to the Columbus Enquirer-Sun about the senatorship as follows: “The friends of Judge Crisp are urging him as a suitable candidate for the senatorship to succeed General Colquitt. This work has been quietly goiog on for some time, but lately his followers are outspoken in view of the fact that the democrats may lose the next house. When Mr. du- Bfgoon was here a few days ago he announced his belief that Mr, Crisp might, under certain circumstances, become a candidate for the upper house. Col. Turner declines to say that he will be a candidate for the senate. Indeed he positively refuses to discuss the subject, although it is* natural 10 suppose that he feels a deep interest in the rituation.” According to the report of the Sec retary of War the United States army consists ot only twenty-eight thousand men including officers This country is so great that it doesn’t need much of an army. European states, with half of our population, keep great standing armies, hundreds of thou sands of men. Wonder what the Emperor of Germany thinks of our. little army?. Uncle Sam, however, would be ready to beat back all of Ejirope if they attempted a landing on our shores. The Young Men’s Bu-iuess League of Augusta has memorialized the leg* islature to create a state bureau of immigration. The league is on the right line. Georgia needs and wants more population. She does not want any riff raff, but she does want a good class of immigrants, come they from whatever section they may. We hope the legislature will aid in this much needed work. The Georgia legislature has passed a bill relieving .Glynn oonnty, on ac count ot the yellow fever epidemic, of all State taxes for the year 1893, ex cept business tax. .Next to Uie fanatic who wants to argne religion on the streets, good Lord deliver ns from the self-esteemed patriot and chronic agitator who is always trying to save the conntry, sagely remark* the Albany .

Mrs. Lease was simply flirting with the republicans after all. Oh, these women, these women, these female women.—Post. And so the festive Harry Hill has skipped out ot Cincinnati. It i; thought that he has gone in the direc tion of Canada. The crowning sentiment ot' the chamber of commerce dinner: honest dollar is one of the noblest works ol the government.”—New York World. Editor Walsh, of Augusta, has seen a game of football. And he kicks—not at the ball—but the game. It would appear that the game, as now played, needs reforming. .The Augusta exposition continues to draw.. The exhibition is one of the finest ever witnessed in Georgia, Augusta has excelled herself in the matter of working op the great show. The Boston Herald significantly re marks: “Anyhow, President Cleveland hasn’t offered to give Liliuokolant $20,000 a year and her daughter $ 150,- 000 in cash, as his immediate prede cessor did.” Iodianapolis, Ind., Dec. 2.—Judge Winters rendered his decision ir. the Iron Hall receivership case this room ing. The decision makes a perma nent receivership and ordets a dis tribution of the funds ot the order. A dispatch from Burlington, N. J., reports a big boom in the s^oe indus try, all the factories in the ci’y haviDg resumed work on full time. Free hides make the shoe mauutacturers independent of all proposed changes in the tariff. “There’s nothing like leather,” and in its manufacture Uncle Sam beats the world. Dalton, Gi„ Dec. 3 —Dr. Free Harris owns a hog that is fasting. She has n*ot eaten or drank anything for 43 days to-day. Sne seems happy aud contented, and no amount of tempting food will she take. She runs around the streets and seems deter mined to out do Dr.Tanner in the act. Much interest is lelt in the outcome and some betting. She is gradually loosing flesh. A statistical writer has it th-tin this country 2,500 women are practicing medicine, 275 preaching the gospel more than 6,ooo managing postoffices and over 3,000,000 earning independ ent incomes. Since 188 > the Patent Office has granted over 2,500 patents to women, and iu New York city 27,- 000 women support their husbands, remarks the Augusta Chronicle. The fact that 27.000 women in New York city support the>r husbands is encour aging. There is some inducement for a man to marry when there i prospect of being supported. He can just sit arouQd and jaw his mother in law as much aS he pleases. A bill has been introduced in the legislature which will, if passed, put a damper on lynching parties. Gover nor Nonhen, and others, have worked up a healthy sentiment against lynch law. It should not stain the fair es cutcheon of Georgia, Here is a short resume of the bill: ^ s “It authorizes any sheriff who may have reason to believe that violence of that character is contemplated to summon a posse of citszcns who must respond or be punished for a misde meanor. It is also-made a misde meanor for sheriff to fail to call a posse together in such an emerg ency,~ and these citizens so responding are aus thorized to carry weapons for the pur pose of duty. To participate in mob or to band together for the pur*, pose of Inflicting punishment upon any mtize& of the state is made a felony, punishable by from one to twenty years in prison, and should death re sult from the violence of the', mob, each participator is subject to indict ment for murder! THE NEW SCHEDULE 4 *Jack Curtright is dead,” was tbe sad announcement that passed from iip to lip on Tuesday afternoon, when a telegram came to Captain. W. J. McClure, his brother-in-law: an- noum , i»*g-lit** snd truth. It was not a Burpri-B- /thne** of his f-rirnds who knew of his gradual decline, for they have known for months past that .this tftu*- hearted jand guileless gen tleman t?as slowly yielding (o the iuroads of a pulmonary disease and that he, himself, was preparing for the end.- Bnt.it was none thb Jess a shock hi <1 a gn f, lor death itself is a different thing from its approaches. When wc realize that we shall see a dear face, a loved form n6 more in life, we understand what the arrival of the dread messenger signifies. It is a mourful coincidence that, in the same issue of the Reporter, apv pears a tribute to the father from bis comrades in arms, and the obituary oftheson. They are now re-united, The only boy is clasped to the great, loving heart of parqnt in a Jand where death is.an unknown factor. Father and son were alike in nobility of s'ml, generosity and magnanimity of spirit, and in the qualities that win and hold the friendship of all classes. Sad that such noble lives were cut off 89 prematurely. Mr. Curtright was burn in La* Grange, grew up .here, but since reaching manhood’s estate, ho has re sided in Atlanta and Thomasville In both places he had scores of friends, but m the latter place, particularly, ho was recognized as a successful mer chant and a leading citizen, having not only won friends, but made mon* ey.- Above all, he, in early man hood, hail given himseli to God in a consecrated Christian life, and wss ready for tbo summons. About two years ago he was happi ly! married to Miss Seals, of Fort Smith. To the young wife and beau tiful babe every heart goes out in sympathy in their irreparable loss. As a husband and father he was gentle and loving; as a son, he honor ed his widowed mother, and as a brother he was ever thoughtful, affec tionate and kind, llis nature exhal ed goodness and kindness as a flower sends forth fragrance. So beautiful a life was crowned by a death at once peaceful aud trium phant. “All 13 well,” “I will wait for you on tho othes shore,” were some of the expressions used to his deyoted mother, wife and pastor. It was not death—it was simply transition. En- wreathed with fragrant floral offer ings, he lay in his . coffin like odb asleep. Accompanied by his mother and sisters, Mrs. W. J. McClure and Mrs. W. A. Candler, and Mr. Pike Smith, ^»t Thomasville, the body arrived in LaGrange on yesterday (Thursday) at 4 a. m, via Montgomery, and, at ten o’clock, the funeral services, con ducted by Rev. R. W. Bigham, as sisted by Rev. S. P. Callaway, took place at the residence of Capt. Mc Clure. Tbe evidences of genuine sorrow on the part ot [ our citizens were abundant, a large number of whom were present. Mr, Bingham’s address wob most appropriate aud con solatory. His loving tribute to the deceased young man evoked a re sponse in every heart. A detach- Hi&ut of the LaGrange Light Guards were iu the procession to the grave. At Thomasville, the testimonials of affection and respect were very mark ed. In our lovely Hill View Cemetery, eido by ride with his kindred and friends gone before, rests all that is earthly ol our young friend, but the immortal spirit lives forever in & higher sphere and with nobler em- ploy. May the All in All fill the hearts that are so sorely bereaved by his death.

These resolutions were passed unani mously. Mr. McLendon made quite interesting talk on the new schedule. He slated tnat he was confident when Mr. Plant’s attention was culled to the injustice done Xhomaaville that he would immediately rectify it. He stated that Mr. Plant is not an enemy of the town; on the contrary he him self had heard him repeatedly give orders to his subordinates to lookout for and protect the interests ot Thom- and he admired it. remedy the evil as b kins, Mr. S.

Mr^plevelaud, who al ways stands by his action*, insisted in his reply that Mr. Van Alen. should fill the position, and intimated pretty plainly that ho, the president^ was ready, and would stand by tho ap pointee to the end. Mr. Van Alen says in his letter that the charge to the effect that the office was to 1 pensate him for campaign contribu tions,, is utterly false. He says that his contributions were for legitimate campaign expenses when the national committee were short of funds, and that ho did not ask, or expect, any compensation in any shape. Jacksonville, Fla., Dec, 2.—William Delaney, of New York, and McVey, of Philadelphia, the two nght-nand men lor Jim Corbett, who is to fight Charley Mitchell in this city on Janu ary 25th, arrived here to-day from Atlanta at 10 o’clock. They are only the advance-guard of Corbett and his training party, who will all reach Jacksonville on Decern- 14th.
