Jones, editor of tlie Nashville, Tenth, Banner, ami a man who is noted for his sound business views and accurate and extensive in formation gives the following good suggestions on the present outlook in the South:— "At present we are going throngli a course o: healthful andT>erinanont development. The South has all that is needed for self-support, both in ag riculture and minerals, ami a vast overplus for tin rest of the world. Our rice, cotton and largely tobacco, together with naval stores, in this coun try belong exclusively to our latitude and soil. The world is already rely ing upon our timbers for the very best ami marine structural materials. The finer tinfliers of the South are today giving ornament to the best hotels and linest drawing-io..ms in England and France, while our great oak forests are furnishing Germany, France, and Ita- V with coopering stuffs. We have not an area of timber land in the South, of any kind or wherever loca ted, that will not constantly increase ,,j rt . State of the Sunny South. ill value. There is not an acre of vir- ■ South which gin forest in the out in will not pay a handsome interest on the investment at present prices. Capital could go blindfold, locate any where, and not go amiss. "As to farm lands the same is true. The farmers have yet one lesson to learn, and that is to produce their own demeslir supplies ami send their unused sjirplux of all kinds to those who want them, either at home or abroad. The average soil of these States, will yield a greater vari- etv and in greater abundance of such products as the human nice requires from both necessity and luxury, than any other sinilar sp;jee on the face of the earth. Nor are there on the globe an equal number of people who are at this moment so prosperous, so health ful, and SO contented. I include in this statement the negr as well as the \\hites, and challenge statistics. The reason of this is plain, hut little un derstood. The great proportion of this soil is underlaid with elay or stone, largely limestone. It may wear and wash, but in either ease eau be restored and fertility perpetuated. The climate favors all classes, in both their wi rk and health. "As to minerals, whieh you special ly ask about, all sorts are more or less abundant. Stone of almost every use ful variety is here and there. Mar bles of every variety arc well known. Some of our Southern States are now furnishing each other and the North with granite. The various lime sand and cement stones are found in many different localities. Lithographic stone, now supplied exclusively from abroad, will lie found in quality to suit the demands of that splendid printing art in the near future. Gyp sum and phosphate together with va rious marls for fertilizing, are already worked to advantage in several locali ties. The clays for firebrick and for pottery and terra cotta work, and kao lin for the best delft and crockery ware, are found in paying quantities. turn pllvi MR. BLAINE’S WILES Assuming that the Harrison-Mortou ticket will be successful in Novem ber.—a condition allairs by means probable—the question arises as to whether Mr. Blaine was really defeated at Chicago. GEORGIA ON WHEELS. A special car, fifty feet long, is be ing built at the car shops of the Cen tral Railroad |in Macon. It will be handsomely decorated; and in it will be placed a condensed exhibit of the products of Georgia—agricultural, miiiera], forest and manufacturing. When completed this car will he sent north, and its exhibit shown at the various State, district and county fairs, while at the same time there will he distributed such pamphlets, circu lars and papers as the different coun ties can contribute, thus affording e:tch locality an excellent opportunity for advertising its resources. At one end of the car will he the Commissioner’s private office, but the remainder of the car will be fitted up m :tli rucks and shelves to hold the va rious articles for exhibition. On the utside of the car along the top will apjiear in large gold letters, “Central Railroad of Georgia.” In the centre of the side of the car, between two doors, will be painted a reprev<Bitation of the great seal of the State of Geor gia, surrounded with the words, “Em- . . ' - ~ At one end on the side, will appear in large gold letters, “Georgia Immigra tion Bureau,” and at the other end, Georgia Agricultural Society.” As it goes flying through the Northern States, stopping at the different stu ns, the car will of itself be a big vertiseinent for Georgia. In the car will bo a representation of all the varied products and indus tries of Georgia. From tlie moun tains of North Georgia will come specimens of gold, silver, iron, lead, marble, manganese, graphite, mica, talc, and other minerals, together with grains and fruits. From Middle Georgia will come samples of wheat, rye, oats, corn, barley, cotton, vegeta bles, fruits, butter, honey and grasses. From Southern Georgia will come ugar cane, syrup, sugar, sea is land cotto», olives, melons, palmetto, grey moss, yams, and all the produets of that semi-tropical region. From the forests will come specimens of yel low pine, cedar, cypress, gum, oaks, hickory, poplar, turpentine, rosin, etc. From the manufactories will come samples of cotton and woolen goods, wooden ware, iron and a long line of manufactured articles. The Commis sioner is sparing no pains to make the exhibit both complete and attractive, and be lias enlisted in bis aid enter prising men in every section of the State, lie asks all who have any special products peculiar to their sec tion, manufactured articles or curios ities, to send them to him without further invitation. Articles of spe cial value will be returned when so re quested. Mark all articles for exhibit \V. L. Glessner, Commissioner, of Immigration, Americus, Ga.,” and ship by 1st of August. Label each article with name of specimen, name of donor and county, and notify Com missioner of its shipment. Papeis throughout the State are re quested, by the Commissioner, to note this enterprise, and to urge the peo ple of their county to get up descrip tions of its resources and advantages for distribution throughout the North, shipping them to the Commissioner not later than August 10. Savannah is commencing work upon her new §250,(HKl hotel. And Athens? Mr. Depew has gone to Europe to cool off. There are no grangers over the water.

Still through the clouds may be seen standing the Republican wall the en tire length of which is bescribbled with the words:—Blaine, Blaine, Blaine. But what would Blaine have to say if the Harrison-Morton ticket were to be elected? This question may be very satisfactorily answered by the asking of others. Was not Blaine defeated at Chicago in 1880, and Gar- iield nominated over his head? What did Blaine then? lie laughed up his sleeve, accepted the Secretaryship of State, and ran the Garfield adminis tration throughout its short and lwdd Georgia will be represented at the opening of the Cincinnati Exposition by her large and luscious water-melons.

Do wc insinuate that as Mr. Blaine was to the Garlicld administration so would be be to the Harrison adminis tration? We most certainly do. The position of Secretary of State is, in the bands of an unscrupulous man often fraught with huge possililities of power, its occupant meanwhile lie- iug virtually irresponsible. With a weak President and a strong Secreta ry of State the reins of Government are practically in the hands of the latter. Mr. Blaine knows this from oximrience. It is not unnatural there fore that he should so gracefully ac cept his presumed defeat. But Mr. Blaine wiH be kept out of the Secretaryship. Never again will be have a chance to repeat the high handed policy he pursued in 1881. He is mistrusted alike by mortals and Gods, and nothing could be muck more baneful to the Republican ticket than bis connection therewith. Next March Mr. Cleveland will accordingly enter upon his second term. A WARNING TO WORKING MEN. The fight is now on. The issue is made up, and it remains to he seen whether the American qieople are wil ling to be taxed for the protection of manufacturers. If the laboring men of the country ill only consider that in the most highly protected industries—for ex ample in the Pennsylvania iron and steel manufactories—starvation wages are being paid at this very time, they cannot, without stultifying them selves, support the Republican party. And not only are the wages paid too low for decent living, but the wage earners are compelled to rent the com pany’s houses, and to purchase their goods and provisions from tlie compa ny’s stores, so that they seldom have a dollar in cash in their pockets and are always in debt; for it is the policy of these corporations to keep the lar borers in debt. In fact the condition of such laborers is very little differ ent from that of the peons on the haciendas of Mexico. It means vir tual slavery for the laborers in both cases. By constantly reiterating in parrot fashion that a high tariff increases the wages of a lrborer, the Republi can politicians and protected manufac turers lsive succeeded in convincing numbers of working men that this is fact. But tlie fallacy—the utter falseness—of such a statement has been clearly shown over and over again by the advocates of tariff reform. The protected manufacturers may threaten to shut down their mills in the event of further Democratic sue cess, but the wage-earners, its an in dependent people, should exercise the freedom of opinion in casting their votes. This threat was used with effect in 1884, hut the manufacturers have kept their mills and factories running at high pressure right along, although the Democratic party has been in office four years. Such threats are vain, and are made only for party purposes. Not :t few of Mr. Norwood’s col leagues in YVashington are expressing much regret at that gentleman’s de feat for re-election. All things con sidered, Tom Norwood has made an efficient public servant, ami is a good fellow into the bargain. In all the cabinets which have been manufactured for Mr. Benjamin Har rison, in the improbable event of his lection, James G. Blaine is put down Secretary of State. Truly the voice is tiie voice of Benjamin, but the band is the band of Blaine. It is reported from Belgium that the condition of the ex-Kinpress of Mexico, Charlotte, is quite hopeless. Her strength is rapidly weakening, and she may be expected to die at any minute. Tlie unfortunate woman has never recovered her mind, which gave way on the execution of her husband, Emperor Maximilian. Mr. D. U. Mills, the very highly re spected millionaire father-in-law of the editor of the New York Tribune, lias founded an institute in New Y’ork for the training of male nurses. It is to lie hoped the training will be very thorough, as Mr. Mills’ son-in-law will need very careful nursing after the November elections. As Mr. Levi 1*. Morton sent “a bale of crisp new §2 bills” to Indiana in 1880 to help the Republicans when Mr. Arthur was the candidate for Y’ice-l’resident, it is to Ik- presumed that be will send two bales of §2 bills this year, since be is on the ticket himself. This was, anyhow, the prob able calculation that led to liis nomi nation.

Considering tlie uncertainty of la bor, and the helpless state in which employers who hire irresponsible ne groes too often find themselves, there is a growing demand for legislation which would remedy the present troubles. No one will contend that an irresponsible party should he a! lowed to get shelter, fuel, food and clothing through the winter and spring months, under promise of working when the crop most needs it, and then leave at the very time liis obligation should Ik- most binding. There must l>e some legislation to break up these methods, or the farmer will have to cut loose from such negroes. In commenting upon this condition of affairs the Montioello Times says: “YVc have never heard so much complaint of laborers, at this season of the year as now are' heard every where, through this section. One gentleman tells us of a couple, of men he has been feeding and furnish ing every way all the year, with th# contract requiring them to remain to the end of the year. They called on him and asked for a settlement saying: ‘YVe have decided to quit.’ “ ‘Why, what is the matter?’ replied the employer. “< YV’ell, nothing’s the matter. We have decided to quit,’ and they left the farm in a condition to cause great loss to the owner. “Another farmer tells us that he has waked several mornings and found one gone, till he has now great fears of losing liis crop, or a great part of it. Both these farmers had annual contracts with their laborers. Several others have had the same ex perience, and are at a loss to know what to do. One gentleman says he will not attempt to make another crop with Kuril lalior. He proposes to sell VINDICTIVE PARTISANSHIP- The current comments of some of the bloody shirt organs on the action of the Society of Confederate Army ami Navy Veterans, and the Associa tion of the Maryland Line, in erect ing a home at Pikesville, for maimed and broken down Confederate vete rans are positively sickening to right minded citizens, no matter what might he their party affiliations. YVhat man with a heart in his bo som can blame able-bodied Confeder ate veterans for lending a helping hand to those disabled comrades with whom they have so often stood shoul der to shoulder amid the hardships and dangers of war? It would rather seem that if these able-bodied Con federates neglected this solemn duty towards their dependent and helpless comrades they would merit the con tempt of all true men without dis tinction of party. These bloody shirt organs aforesaid contend that the establishment of “Homes” for broken down and indi gent Confederate soldiers is inimic.v ble, and a standing menace to the Government of our country. On the other hand, the vindictive partisan at tempts to keep alive the hatreds and passions engendered by a war of twenty-five years ago, are unwise and unpatriotic, if not actually treasona ble to the Government as it is now constituted. The knowledge of the fact that bet ting on an election involves tlie loss of a vote is not likely to prevent men from wagering on tlie cliances of tlieir [,et candidates, and many heavy bets on the Presidential election have al ready been booked. The betting hab it might well be confined to events the result of which would not involve issues of such paramount importance to the country’s prosperity. nanra Conch, llmnehltlK AatlinuK In.tiirreUonl U*.

Hood’s Sarsaparilla A New York dentist makes the in teresting statement that the great reason why people’s teeth decay is that they are not used enough. By the way, did anyone ever see a tramp with bad teeth? with such labor. He proposes off all stock, and reduce his operations to what he and his family can work.
