Quite a number bad not m de up their minds, as they thought they had plenty of time to study the matter.

Otheis had given the subject consid- crible attention, ai d werft ready to name the man they wanted to govern the State of Georgia next term. The fol lowing are some of the opinions: Air. E. E. Jones, says: “I am in favor cl Hon. J. C. C. Black, of Augusta, I de-m him one of the purest and ablest men in the State, and one who would manage the executive affairs with credit to himself and the State of Georgia.” Air. D. P. Haselton: “II n. J. C. C. Black is undoubtedly the man who should be the next Gover nor of Ge- rg>a ” Mr. A. Culeman: “I favor the lion. Henry AY. Grady for Governor, and truly hope he will be elected.” Mr. A. H. Hodgson : “I think Hon'. II. D. McDaniel has made one of the best Governars we have- had since the W3r, and I would like to ste him put in office again.” Air. C. VV. Baldwin: “I have not given the matter a great deal of study, but as I see it at present, I favor the election ol Hon. Jas. M. Smith. He is a man of great executive ability, and I think would make a mighty good Governor.” Mr. Y. AY. Skiff: “I thought I had time to make up my mind, consequently I cannot SiV that I have decided upon any man. With the present light before me, I would be tempted to s*y Grady.” Air. Will Dorsey: “Mr. Grady is an old Athens bov, and a deserving man. lie is aUo one of the' most popular y r oung 1«en in the South, and would make a fine Governor.” Messrs. Grant & Willcox also favor Air. Grady. Mr. James O Farrell: “1 favor either Henry Grady, or Pat. Walsh, I don’t care which. Either of them would m?.ke a fine Governor.” Mr. A. A. McDuffie : “Henry Carlton is »lie man for the place, and I favor him.” Mr. Jankower thinks Air. Grady should be the next Governor, and Mr. J. A. Mullane, is in faver of Hon Patrick Walsh, of Augusta. Opt. Dozier: “Hon. Pope Barrow is my choice for Governor.” Judge A. L. Mitchell: “I think either Black, Cutnming or Blount, of Macon, would make a good Governor, and as for Black, he will make a fine Senator or Governor either. Col. Ike Lowe: “I am in favor of Air. Black, of Au gusta, or Blount, of Macon. Either gen tleman would give great sastisfaction as Governor.” Mr. Geo. Middlebrooks: “Hon Patrick Walsh, ol Augusta, is my favorite for Governor.” Mr. George Hodgson: “I am for Henry Grady, or J. Black, of Augusta.” Michael Bros., favor the ' election Mr. Grady.

The fact that good health, strong muscles and sound nerves are attainable should encourage every invalid to an earnest endeavor in the right direction. Remember all disease owes its origin, more or less, to a lack of iron ill the blood. Iron in the blood meins health strength and vigor. Analyze the blood of an invalid and lit tie or no iron will be found. Healthy men's blood is full of iron. The best method of supplying this lack of iron is by using Brown’s Iron Bitters, a sure cure tor dyspepsia, general debility, weakness and all wasting diseases.

When it became known at Anderson Court House, which was garrisoned by the Federal*, a posse was immediately sent to the river to inves tigate the particulras, but nobody seemed able to give any information, as the murder had been committed by un known parties at a dead hour of the night. Fishing for the body of the young guard was begun on the arrival of the coroner, and in a short time they were all found in water near the ferry. Be sides the fatal bullet holes through their heads, the bodies showed signs of violence,supposed to have been inflicted by the murderers with the poles of the ferry boat. The horrible spectacle presented by the exposition of the mangled bodies elicted the sympathy of all good people regardless of party- affiliation, and the mu dsrers if they had ever been found out would have been objects of the sternest condemnation of all respecta ble, law-abiding people. The oldest one ol these ill-fated sol diers was only 24 years of age. Their remains were interred in the Presbyte rian cemetery at Anderson, where they still rest.

Atlanta, Ga. # March 19.—Did the southern confedercy evercontemplete,or was there any danger of. a church estab lishment if . the confederacy had suc ceeded? The Philadelphia Presbyterian a few weeks ago published the following : A»It is a late but somewhat singular revelation that the leaders of the late confederacy in the south, now happily burled, and not muchQpriourned, pro posed among other novelties to establish a church m connection with the state. The8tory rests upon the authority of Rev. Dr. llcFerrin, a leading Methodist divine, who died lately in Nashville, Tenn. It was his inference, he said, from all that he gathered while serving as a chaplain in the southern army, aim so persuaded w;is lie of tiie correctne s of nis inference, that he was enabled thereby to bear the results of the contest wi.h great equanimity.” Dr. J. Win. Jones, of Atlanta, former ly secretary of the Southern Historical society, and a personal friend of Mr. Da vis. as well as a defender of the name and fame of the confederacy, sent this item to President Davis, and received in reply the following letter: Beacvoir, Miss., March 10, 1889. Rev. Dr. J. \Vm. Jones: Dear Sir—1 have received yours of the 15th inst., with the enclosed slip The story referred to is not only untrue but absurd. The constitution of the Confederate States differed from that of the United States by having in its preamble a recog nition of the Supreme Being, and “in voking the favor and guidance of Al mighty Co i.” and in section 9 of the 1st article it nuid: “Congress shall make no law re peering an es>.a lisliment of reli gion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.” No such-prohibition was contained in the constitution of the Uniied states, as originally adopted, but the same prohi bition was made i-y an amendment. The o iginal observance of the spirit and letter of the constitution by the con federate States government was 60 marked a feature as never to have been denied by' its worst enemies. But if these silly slan ders be worthy of any investigation it may be asked what church, or sect, was to constitute the establishment ? Was it to be the largest church in the Confed- era y? Then .that, I suppose, was the Methodist Church, South, and would this have been such a grievance to the author of the story as to reconcile him to the downfall of ihe Confederacy ? Was the church to he select* d indi cated by the composition of the chosen officers of the C* nfederate government, and the cabinet counselors directing its pol'cv? If se, how does the matter stand? The president was an Episcopalian, the vice-president a Presbyterian, the secre tary of state a Hebrew, ihe secretary of the*treasury an Episcopalian, the secreta ry of war a Presbyte iun. the secretary of the navy a Catholic, the postmasfe general a Method st, and the atto ney general a Baptist, or, at different times, a member ot all these denominations ex cept the Cathol'c. Henco appears the absurdity of the suppos tic-n that a church esiabli-hmen was eontemp.a ed, or if so was a possible achievement. Respectfully and truly your friend, Jefferson Davis.

Mr. Stowers was sent to the Tortugus, and kept there until his sentenced expired, for a crime he never committed, and the writer saw him when on his way back to his family. ^ His sufferings, while confined in the different prisons and with the sentence of death hanging over him, were horri ble to listen to. His noble wife clung to him through all of his troubles, and a good little fortune was spent by her to save her husband. Gaines Stowers has long since gone to his final account, but a nobler hearted gentleman never lived, and we are con fident that he never committed the crime with which the Yankees charged him. smell is so "load’’ that it impregnates edibles in the cuboaids, spoiling bread, pies and takes.

Wanton Cruelty to Cattle. Cincinnati, O., March 19.—The village of Cleves ia excited over as wanton a piece of cruelty as has ever come to the notice of the authorities. Residing on a farm near there is a retired Methodist mini ter named Smith. Smith had quite a large herd of cattle of n itive breed. Recently a notion pos sessed him that he wanted “moolieB,” or home s cattle: so driving h sherd into the stable, with the help of a hired man, he sawed off every horn. Two of the cattle have since died from this mutiUation, and other's are sick, Saturday the S. P. C.

It is just as neces sary tiiat fertilizer should be in good mechanical condition and throughly assimilated in order to obtain the best re sult from its use as it is- necessary that the soil be prepared thoroughly before planting, if one would make a good crop. Second. When one buys a fertilizer the first question should be not how much am monia the manufacturer guar antees, but whether the am monia is thoroughly assimilat ed and ready' to act immedi ately on the plant. This he will know by examining a complete and absolutely am- moniated fertilizer, like the ASH EPOO or the ElfTAAV, where the component parts are so united as to from a per fect whole. The field test of such goods will bring about the most profitable results. Third. As one is largely dependent upon the integri ty of the manufacturer he should buy fertilizers front a house known to be absolute ly' reliable and who would only handle goods made b* absolutely first clas® manufacturers. Thus one will avoid paying out mon ey for inferior goods that would probably' yield no prac tical returns. Fourth. Messrs. ROB ERT, TAYLOR & WIL LIAMS of Charleston, S.
