It some congressmen and senators do not look sharp, they will lose their grip—about the time of the next elec tion. Hon. Martin V. Calvin is prominent ly mentioned as assistant commission er of agriculture. This office would honor Mr. Calvin and he would honor the office. Donian, the crank who has been writing letters to VicesPresident Ste vensoo, Senator Mills and others in Washington, baa been arrested. He is a first class crank. Fresh talk about the return of Har- ry Hill to Atlanta is going the rounds, He is, it is said, liable to turn up there almost any day. Harry, it seems, hard to get rid of. fust watch Georgia, grand, glorious old Georgia, wheel into the democratic columns, when the elections come around again. 0, she’ll be ihere, and don’t you forget it. A good many of our exchanges will appear on the half shell this week. Well, if any set of men on earth de serve a respite lrom the ceaseless grind, it is newspaper workers. It begins to look as if General Ev ans would distanca all competitors—if he should have them—in his race lor governor. The wool hat boys are for him as well as the cities and towns.

The Hawkinsvilie Dispatch gives this gcod advice to young men: ‘JHere, young man, go to work: get Off that box and quit whittling and growling and be cheerful.

A., Dear Brother—I, this Sunday morning, seat myself to in form yon my health is good as a camp life will admit of, hoping this reach yon all in good health. David start* ed home day before yesterday, ho will reach home before this letter decs. I want you to send me a tanrel squir rel skin by Dave as long as you are such a great tanner. I want to make me a pocket book out ot it. Send me two pair of pants and two pair of drawers and one coat and one vest and two shirts, they can cut out the vest by Dave's, make it longer than Dave's is and if you can g > or send to old Hubbard m Baiobridge, get him to cat out my coat a round about, he has got my measure that he cat out this coat by, if he can't find that let him cut it oat by David’s and cut it too long for him and then it will fit me. Get him to trim it put gold lace on the collar two stripes, and one on the sleeves and I will be your humble servant Royal. I want a pair of shoes too, high quarters to lace op in front and a half-so'e put on after the bottom is put on. I applied for a furlough bat it came back dU- approved, no chance for me now. I am in for the war. Mabe I will come sometime next winter provided I should live that long. I received a letter from David last night dated Feb. 18th, it had twenty dollars in it I will keep the money and spend long as it has come, but you need not send me any for I have g* money a plenty to last me until draw and they are oweing me three months wages $270. Here is a ring I will send to Mary, I don’t know whether it is big enough or not, reckon it is, it will fit Pierce if it won’t fit her. Saui you never have wrote whether you got that ten dol lars I sent when I was at Chattanoo ga or not. David got off in a good time there is no re-enlisted furloughs granted now, the order came around next day after he left that time fur loughs would be considered under the five per cent order Nothing else that is worth your attention. Yours as ever, H. M. Emanuel. P. S.— One shirt will be enough for Changing The Tima of Meeting of The Legislature. Editor Times Enterprise : Iu a notice that yon published the other day, taken from some one of your exchanges, abont the act amend ing the constitution in relation to the time of meeting of the ’egi«lature, there were many errors and inaccu racies. The act as signed by the Governor provides for changing the time of meeting from the 4th Wednesday in October of each year to the 4th Wed nesday In July of each year. That is the only change made, and that most be voted on by the people at the next election for Governor, etc., on the 1st Wednesday in October, 1894, and if ratified by the people at that rime, and thereby made a part of the con stitution, theife would be no regular Session of the legislature until the 4th Wednesday in July, 1895. Thero are many who expressed the opinion as soon as they heard that the act law passed that It would-not do to simply change the time in this way because it would necessitate an extra session in October or November 1894. Under the act as passed, if it is ratified by the people, there wonld most certainly have to be an extra session, because Che returns of the election for Governor and the various State house officers' can only be opened by the President of the 8enate or Speaker of the House after the leg islature has organized. But under the constitution no business can be transacted at an extra or called session except such as is specified in the proc lamation convening the session. It is probable, nay almost certain, that the call tor an extra sepsion would specify only the declaration of the result of the election for Governor and State House officers, the inauguration of the Governor elect, the passage of an act providing for necessary appropria tions and taxes until July 1895, and the election of Judges, Solicitors Gen eral, and possibly United States Sen ator. As no other business could be introduced to interfere with them these matters wonld doubtless all be disposed of iu twentysfive days ot less. How then stands the question of ex pense to the State? Vote against this amendment and leave the time of meeting as now fixed by the conatitu* lion and you have the regular session of fifty days in 1894, another fifty day Bsion in 1895 and another in 1896. Vote for the amendment and you have an extra session of not exceeding twenty-Svo days in 1894, one cf fifty days in 1895 and another of fifty days in 189G. A difference of twenty>five in favor of the latter. It is clear then that even on the score of economy it is cheaper to vote for the amendment with the extra session attached than to vote against From the Altoona, Pa , Times LETTER FROM THE SOUT f. Mr. W. J. Mervine Writes from Thomas- vllle, Ga.—A Fine Country and Agreeable People. The Times . his received a letter from Mr. W. J.- Mervine, a son cf Mr. N. J. Mervine, and a former res ident of this city*. He w_ now iiyiug at rhomasville. Ga., for the benefit of his health, as he has been suffering with a slight lung trouble. Ho has been there for several wetland has improved tar beyond his expectation. “The climate,” writes Mr. Mervine, “since I have been here iVOricgant; there has not been a-day but nhat* I have been compelled to take the shady side of the stfeet. Everything beantifuL’and green and the roses are in. full bloom in a number of yards that I pass daily, and I. have seen four or five orange trees loaded down with beautiful oranges.” In speaking of the people he says: ‘This is certainJy God’a own country, find the people ot the south the most sociable people I have ever me*, end they cannot do too much for a north erner, provided he bihaves himseh.” Mr. Mervinc’s numerous friends in Altoona will be pleased to know that he hopes to be fully restored to healht as a result of the vitalizing- and pleas ant place where he is now making his abode. The above letter was handed to us by Mr. Emanuel, it being &ddres;ed to him at Mt. Plearant, Fla* On the envelope is an old well preserved Con federate postage stamp, and as it Las bsen sealed and unread for ever twenty-mine years, it was a surprise and intensting news to him* The foregoing appeared sometime since in the Bainbridge Globe. It will bring up a flood of memory to many an old soldier whote experience waa simi’ar to that of the writer. Hon. Martin V. Calvin. We leirn from onr exclunges that it is probable that Hon. Martin V. Calvin, the senior member from Rich mond county, will be a candidate for commissioner of agriculture. Mr. Calvin has served for twelve years in the House of Representatives, and during that time has shown special interest in every measure calculated to benefit the farmers ot the Slate and to impiove tbe methods and en hance the u&efulnes3 of the depart ment of agriculture. He has made this a study, and many important laws in relation to the working of this branch of the government were passed by his untiring efforts. If nominated and elected we fed sure that he will make a thorough, faithful and efficient officer. it. As to tie necessity for the change it is only necessary to say that every member of both Houses of the Gener al Assembly was in favor of it, but to put it only on the score of expense, the summer session is cheaper because it does away with any necessity for heating up the whole building which is au expense of several dollars each day. As the only objection to the charge so far has been the expenre of an extra cession that has bciu tbe only question ducussed iu this article. Yours etc., In Favor op the Amendment. In the Mercantile Trust and De* posit Company for safe keeping is a sword which was worn by General Washington. It is the property of Miss Virginia Taylor Liwie, and has just been returned from Chicago, where it was exhibited in the Gov ernment Building at the World’s Fair. Mr. Louis C. Fischer, secretary of the Mercantile Trust Company, who is a friend of Miss Lewis, has charge of the relic. It is a straight, bayonet-shaped weapon, and except .for its peculiar triangular shape is not un’ike a mod ern fencing foil, the length being abont the same. It is inclosed in a heavy'parch meat scabbard, which is bound and tipped with steel. A gold silk braid is bound around the bilt, endiDg in two silk note. Tbe sword was made in 1760, and was inherited by Miss Lewis from her father, who was a grandnephew of George Wash ington. It is carefnlly wrapped in cotton b&ttiog and encased in a ma hogany box, on the lid of which is a silver plate containing the following extract from Washington’s will: “To each of my nephews, W. A. Washington, George Lewis, G. 8 Washington, B. Washington and 8. Washington, I give one of the swords of which I may die possessed, and they are to choose in the order named.” These swords me accompanied with an injunction not to nnsheath them for the purpose of shedding blood ex cept it be for self-defense or in defense of their country and its rights, and in the latter case to keep them unsheath ed and to prefer faffing with them in hand to relinquish them. Now if the batclet, wiih which he hacked that cherry We, should turn np it would be a valuab’e relic of the father of his country. After Baby Ruth Abilene, Kan., Dec. 24.—Two let ters were picked up here on the streets Wednesday by a country woman and handed to the police. One letter is from Topeka, dated Dec. 10, and says: “We have decided to make two jobs out of the white house business. ) We will take the oldest child first. We can get her all right. Mollie will get her and haod her over to os, we will keep her until the reward is offered. It means thousands to ns to get this child, Ruth, aid we’ll get her, too, January. Address me in Chicago. We will go right on.” The other letter was from Miuneap o!is and written prior to the one already quoted. It said: “We • have every thing ready for the white house and will seed Grover to Hades when the bugle sounds. Ws will all start for the white bouse now. We have never failed in our jobs aod won’t oow. There is much more in the houses ot gold bugs and' Vandeibilts.” Harry Hill. Atlanta, Deo. 27.—Tire police have information that Harry Hill returned to Atlanta last night. The detective force iion the hunt for him, bnt upJ2 o’clock this afternoon they had not located him The anarchists of Chicago now threaten to blow up the great Armour Institute in that city with dynamite. Mr. Armour has erectel magnificent buildings and endowed the institution with his millions. It is free to any youth in Chicago, however poor be may be. The anarchists c’aim that it should he destroyed because it was built and endowed by a millionaire. Chicago woqld do well to bang every anarchist in that city'to the nearest lamp post. String’em up. Washington, D, :C*' Dec 26.— Charley Mitchell and party arrived here firs morning and left at eleven o’clock over the Richmond and Dan vil!e route for Jacksonville, where they will arrive at 9 to-morrow mom* ing: General Evans. The Constitution, with its usual alertness, pounced down on General Evans 0:1 Christmas, and put its rep- ortorial j-eocil at work. The Consti tution says: “No man in Georgia enjoyed a more genuine happy Christmas .day than General Clement A. Evao?. There were a number of reaeoas, no doubt, for that happiness, but in talk ing with a Constitution reporter last night he dwelt particuter'y upon one of tbcie: •‘The report irom all parts of. the state published in yesterday's Consti tution,” said he, “has given mo to-day a very happy Christmas, and I did not hesitate to say so. The good wifi of the people gives the real value to the honors of office, and'stimuiates' a true man to be faithful to their inter* A Repart Confirmed. Atlanta, Dec. 26.—News from Ma con has been received to the effect that the Journal’s statement that the Seaboard Air Line had gotten control of the Georgia, Southern and Florida railroad is confirmed. No details' aie given. We*mentioned tbe fact some time ago that the legislature had passed an act authorizing the appointment in each county of a physician to assist the coroner at all inquests. Referring to thU law the News says: Under an act passed by the lost session of the legislature the coroner of each county in the state has the right to appoint a physician, the ap pointment to be approved by the judge ot the superior court, at a sala ry of $600 per annum. The physi cian eo appointed ii to he at tin ser vice of the coroner at any time he is called, to make medical examinations, autopsies, or for any such purpose for which he may be called. in the future there will be only tis jurymen in case c-f an inquest, which means a saving each time of $6 to the county. Referring to the public school syss tem lately inaugurated iu Hawkins vilie the Dispatch fays: “The people of this section are tak ing advantage of this excellent sch 20I system, and are moving into the town so that all the vacant houses have been rented, and consequently a large number of pupils have made arrange ments for board at the “Pupils’ Home” near the school building, con ducted by Mrs. Dr. A. A. Smith.” This shows what a public school system will do 1 or Thomasville. The people, when the time comes, will vote overwhelmingly for the system. Jacksonville, Dec, 28.—In friendly suit, Jim Corbett waa arrested this morning, and is being held to answer before the next grand jury. This evening an application for ha beas corpus proceedings will be made, and, if it is granted and the prisoner discharged, it will settle the matter in favor of the pugilist’s right to fight in Fiorida. Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 28.—At a meet ing cf the representative citizens of Atlanta to day committees were apv pointed to organize for the largest ex position ever held in! the couth, to come ofl next fall in this city. Great enthusiasm was manifested and pledges of all necessary funds secured. “In France,” an exchange says, “the woman who wears the breeches is taxed $10 for the privilege.” If the law was inforerd in this country it wonld do away with the need of an income tax. < • Respectfully referred to congress. The general and his friends are very mneh gratified indeed over the result of thatConatitation canvass. What especially pleases me,” said General Eygns, “was the manner in which it was obtained—the absolute fairness and the partiality of that re port. The returns agree very closely, except in a few instances, witii the in formation which has been voluntarily sent to me from time to.time for sev eral months, and accords with the many expressions which have appear ed.in the weekly press. It was never my desire to become ah embarrass* men; to my friends or party, nor in any way to interrupt the desirable harmony among onr people that ought to be enoouraged and main tained. While it is true that I con sented last summer to be a candidate, my consent was always based upon the popular call and with a view of conciliation among ourteties on sound principles. “I would like, of course,” continued General Evans, “to have a unani mous nomination. There has not been in oar history such reasons exist now for firmness in political faith and unity in political action, sincerely desire to rife above all per sonal ambition in my candidacy, and I think I may venture to say that with a unanimous nomination I can make a campaign of good will that the people of Georgia will approve, would hold it as a high privilege to do this special public service of my state, and then to transact its bnsiness atter my election with intelligent and pa triotic regard-to all interests.” “The general in this connection re ferred with becoming modesty to his active work for the party. ‘Ever since my return home from Appomattox,” said he, “I have neces sarily taken a warm and active inter* eit in all.questions affecting the wel- faro of the state. I have gone heartis ly with every struggle to save our state from the perils of re construc tion and to advance its general inter ests without either asking or expect- ing any office or other reward. Like thousands ot other private cit'zma I have stood firmly for all measures that have improved the condition of the stale and have been glad to see honors fall upon any worthy man. But I do net like to talk about my self. Some time in the future I will be glad to meet wiih our able public men in a proper prefcutation of those issues which are set forth in the dem ocratic platform. A friend of General Evans has made a study of The Constitution's canvass published in Sunday’s issue aud the result of that study is inter esting. Of the counties from which inter views aie printed, eleven are for Mr. Atkinson, Ihis including Meriwether and Coweta counties, seventy-five are for Gee era!Evans. “Of the fifty-one oountios not heard from private advices show, it is claim ed, lhat forty will be for General Evans. “Showing a total cf 115 for Gener al Evans and twenty-two for Mr. At kinson—ibis based, as stated, on the estimates of General Eyan's friends in the counties for which there are no returns. “Going into the individual expres sions, it is found that 668 are for Ev ans and 219 for Atkinson. “It is very natural,’’ added the gen tleman who made the calculations, “that the general and his. friends should be highly elated at the outlook. It looks like a spontaneous and al most universal demand cf the people that he become the standard bearer of tbe party. General Evans has no Bjlfidrends to gain. His' candidacy started in the backwoods—you might say. That is, the demand came first from the people of the country dis tricts and then was taken np by the weekly press. There has, perhaps, never been a campaign in which there has been such harmony or an issue on which there was such unanim ity'among the .newspapers of Geor gia and the people. A stndy of Sun day's Constitution will convince any thinking man that General Evans is the strongest posable man the part^ Peace on earth and good in ward men. The following di was sent out from Washington on Christmas day: The World’s Columbian Exposition memorial for international arbitration has been presented to Secretary .-ham and President Cleveland by Win. E Blackstone, of Chicago, hon orable commissioner cf the World’s Columbian commission. Ins a re markable documen*, having the auto graph signatures of the commissioners from some forty different nations which participated iu the exposition. The President and Secretary ex pressed their approval of the object sought by tbe memorialists, the Pres< fdeot mentioning that the same senti ment had been incorporated in his recent message. TEXT OF THE MEMORIAL. The following is the text of the me morial:. “To the Governments of the World: The undersigned citizens of many countries, gathered at the Columbian Exposition, in Chicago, in the United States of America, recognizing the advantages accruing to those nations which have pursued the policy of arbitrating international disputes, aid desiring that like benefits may io the future be enjoyed by all nations, and deeming this a fitting opportunity, do hereby join in this memorial to all our various governments praying that they will unitedly agree, by mutual treatie? to submit for settlement by arbitration all such international questions as shall fail ot satisfactory solution by. the ordinary peaceful. negotiations, and for this the petitioners wdl ever pray. 'It is requested that a cepy of this memorial shall be presented to each of the governments of the world.” At soon as the requisite facsimile copies shall have been pre pared it will be transmitted by Secretary Gresham to the various governments ot the world.

London, Dec, 26—The Times, re viewing the general political situation; dwells upon the discord at home, and says that circumstances throughout tbe world generally appear to favor the prevalence of peace and good-will equally as little as in Sjuth America where political movement is conduct ed with the aid of shot and shell, add ing: “While everywhere the great powers stand watching each other with incessant suspicion, stiainmg their resource 1 to the utmost in pre paring for the anticipated attack, hap pily there is no immediate danger cf war, but it is idle to deny that in many quarters aod between many people the tension is greater now than it was a few months ago.” The Times then proceeds to urge that the safety of the empire demands urgent and imperative attention being paid to the defenses.

X - " Macon, Ga, Do2. 26—There considerable gestip here to-day among railroad authorities, tending to con’ firm the Journal’s story of the ab sorption ot the Georgia Southern and the M. and N. Roads by the Sea board. Owing to the peculiar status of the Georgia Southern’s complicated af fairs, no one here presumes to speak authoritatively and, o f course, no in formation is direct, but it is live gos sip in limited circles and the belief is growing strong here, regardless of de nial, that the Journ-l’s story is cor rect, with possibly the exception of the details cf the deal. Four Augusta cotton mills this year paid dividend* of 6 per cent, out of their net earnings and one a dividend of 10 per cent. What bitter argu ment is needed to show that the south is the proper place for such factories? says the Savannah Press.
