Then came the semi-annual address
of the president of the society and feol.
Waddell read au address full of patriot
i,m aud sound sense, on the subject of a
third party. He placed himself squarely
on the democratic platform aud de
clared that nothing could be so disas
trous to the people of the South as a
division among the white people of this
lection.

rously applauded.

guing the necessity of more money.
Mr. Moore, of Hancock, arose and
jumped right on to Mr. Livingston.
He said: “I’ll tell you what wo need
more than we need money; we need

A little girl about six years old was
found wandering around yesterday on

She was evidently lost. She stopped

She would not talk to any one and
her name could not be ascertained.

DEEPWATER
PAT CALHOUN’S SPEECH.
IN SECURING THIS END.
Local Option Legislation.
At 11:30 the joint session of the
General Assembly convened in the hall
of the House to hear Mr. Pst Calhoun
speak on the importance of deep water
at the Savannah harbor.
About one hundred prominent oiti—
zens of Savannah, among whom were
the mayor,the councilmen and aldermen
of Savannah, were extended tbe privi
leges of the floor and came in to hear.
Mr. Calhoun’s address.
President Mitchell introduced Mr.
Calhoun in a few appropriate re
marks. Mr. Calhoun then began his
address.
He said that Savannah had asked him
to present some reasons why deep
water was necessary: But her ambition
was not limited to tbe confines of mere
commercial weather. Her
geographical position was com-
man ling and her commercial position
great. It was pleasant to feel that all
in bis audience were in sympathy with
the line on which he would speak and
that there was no man there who would
not contribute all in his power to the
gretaness aud glory,of the South, and
thus to the entire union.
There was no reason why Savannah
should not have all she asked. The
plan proposed was no wild visionary
scheme. The Federal government had
set her stamp of approval on tbe
work of the engineer who had
worked up tbe matter so it was not a
question as to the practicability of the
work. The work of appropriation bad
already been begun, but all the money
was needed at once.
Savannah’8 geographical importance
was shown by these facts:
The distance from Memphis
Savannah was G50 miles
From Memphis to New York it was
1152 miles.
From Little Rock to Savanuah 907
miles; to New York 1294. From Wa
co, Tex., to Savannah 10C6 miles, to
New York 1707. From Kaunas City,
the center of tbe grain and meat trade,
to Savannah 1187 miles, to New York
1302.
He compared other distances and
showed bow Savaunah equalled New
York in commercial importance, if it
had the advantages which the metropo
lis has.
He then showed what the vast re
sources ot the south were and thus
brought out the necessity of having
deep water at this port. The commer
cial importance of tbe South Atlantic
states was fast becoming superior to
that of the northeastern states. But
New York had secured
over $8,000,000 for her har
bors whbn Georgia had received hardly
$2,000,000.
He compared southern harbors and
showed the superiority of those in the
south.
Tbe appropriation from the Federal
government should all come at once; as
it could do no good if it came little by
little and year by year.
The traffic of tbe west must finally
come through this part, and direct trade
with Europe and the markets of the
world must inevitably follow.
Ho wanted to see the price of
cotton regulated by its price
in Savaunah, with freight
added instead of by Its price to New
York with freight to that point added.
[Applause.]
He had no prejudice against the
nortbssnd northeast, but he wanted to
see tbe south the great financial and
commercial center.
He thanked the members for their
kindness in honoring him by tbe invi
tation to speak.
Mr. Clifton then introduced a resolu
tion thanking Mr. Calhoun in the be
half of Savannah and the general as
sembly which was unanimously adop
ted.
There will be some startling develop
ments before the General Assembly ad
journs.
4pd tbe ball was started Tolling to
day. It will strike somewhere and
where it does it will hit hard.
It has been charged by oertain par
ties in tbe state that several mqpabers
of the General Assembly attempted to
sell or offered to sell their votes in the
senatorial race last fell.
And thereby hangs tbe tale.
Mr. Ottis, of Muscogee, came np
with a privileged resolution tbit morn
ing whioh reads as follows:
Whereas charges being circui ted over the
state that daring the nee for - United States
Senator at the fall term of this General As
sembly as many aa eight members of the legis
lature offered their votes or Buff end their votes
offered foi sale and
Whereas said report Is a reflection upon the
General Assembly, therefore
Be it reeolved by the House the Senate oon-
curing that a committee of three from the
Honseand two from the eoate to appointed
to investigate said charges.
Resolved further that said committee be au
thorized to send for persons and papers and ad
msnister oaths to witnesses.
This is the most sensational thing
which has come up at this session, and
there will probably be some interesting
developments before tbe legislature ad
journs.
The members want the investigation
and demand it, and so passed tbe resolu
tion at once. It went immediately to
the Senate. . . •
Itcaunot be learned who made the
charges, or who the offending members
are supposed to be.
However, all will come out at the in
vestigation whioh will soon follow.
TO REDUCE TBE PENSIONS.
On account of the limited amount of
funds in the state treasury,
some measure looking as the
revision of the pension law has been re
commended by the pen«ion committee.
The first section provides that no
Confederate soldier who owns real or
personal property over the value of
$2000, or who has a salary or income of
more than $000 per annum, shall be en
titled to any benefit under the pension
laws.
The second section provides that no
widow of a Confederate soldier
who owns property worth over $2,000
shall be entitled to a pension, under the
pension laws.

A KANSAS JUDGE
Don’t Try Cases Under the Shadow
of Bayonets.
Topeka, Kas., Aug. 12.—Judge Bot
kin is here from Southwestern Kansas,
and in discussing the forthcoming trial
of Brennan, who murdered Colonel Sam
Wood, said: “I understand the sheriff
of Stevens county intends to call on the
governor to send the militia to Hugoton
when Brennan is tried. I want to say
that if it is done there will he no court.
I will never try a case or permit one to
be tried in my district under the shadow
of bayonets. I will swear in new
bailiffs who are able to keep the peace
and prevent murder or bloodshed.”
Judge Botkin exhibited letters which
threatened his life, and said: “I know
there is a plot to kill me, but I want to
say that every hair on my head is num
bered and if I am molested I have
friends enough to see to it that every
one of the conspirators will bite the
dust, and the funeral procession will
reach from Topeka to No-Man's -Land. ”
The feeling in Southwestern Kansas is
intense, and murder and bloodshed may
follow.
AFTER THE LEVYS.
New York Merchants Charged with
Grand Larceny.
New Yoke, Aug. 13.—Moses 8. Levy
of the firm of Levy Bros. & Co., which
yjtly failed for several hundred
thousand dollars, have been arrested,
charged with grand larceny. The firm
are charged with fraud inasmuch as
they allowed money to be drawn frdm
the firm and paid to Samuel Levy, a
relative, $100,000 and over. Samuel
Levy, they claim, was not a creditor-
It is further charged that the firm
fraudulently disposed of certain goods
at 60 per cent, below the regular prices,
and other irregularities are cited. Mo-
see Levy waa arraigned in the police
conrtt and pleaded not guilty to the
charge. He was held in $15,000 bail for
trial. Other members of the firm are
to be arrested. The warrants for the
arrest of the various members of the
firm were granted nearly two months
i. Julius Levy, the senior member
the firm, was in Europe- however,
and the police, fearing he would not re

waited for him to take a steamer for

/- - ;
Atlanta. Aug. 12.—There was a gen-
nine sensation in the house of represen
tatives here, brought about by the in
troduction of the following resolution
by Mr. Oates of Muscogee county:
Whereas, charges are being circulated
over the state that during the race tor
United States senator, at the fall term of
this general assembly as many as eight
members of the legislature offered their
votes or suffered their votes offered, for
sale; and whereas said report is a reflec
tion upon the general assembly, therefore
be it
Resolved by the house, the senate con
curring, That a committee of three from
the house and two from the senate be ap
pointed to investigate said charges.
Resolved, further, That said committee
be authorized to send for persons and pa
pers, and administer oaths to witnesses.
For several days this matter has been
quietly discussed by tbe members of the
legislature, and whispered in the lobbies
that some action was demanded on the
subject. The report is that Hon. L. F.
Livingston has stated to various parties
in different portions of the state that he
could have defeated Gordon and elected
Pat Calhoun if he had desired to use
money. He is quoted as saying that as
many as eight members approached him
and Pat Calhonu and offered to sell out
at $400 a piece. He is also quoted as
saying that he has positive proof on the
subject not dependendent on ids or Mr.
Calhoun’s statement
It is said the matter was discussed in.
a recent meeting of the Alliance mem
bers, and that it piovoked considerable
disenssion, but that the members be
lieved it was due to the general assem
bly that au investigation should be had.
In speaking of the matter, a prominent
member said : "I have no idea there is
a word of truth in it I think Living
ston started the rumor, but he can’t
prove it, and this will simply catch
him. * s

The great advantages to he derived by
the state of Georgia, by the southeast,
and by the entire country by a timely
and sufficient appropriation from the
government necessary to complete the
work at an early day, were clearly
shown by the speaker, who dwelt at
length on the natural resources of the
empire state, and the importance of a
‘ 'pping point for the growing section
of this great American country.

The Troublesome Spider.
Many years ago, when the writer used
the level with an engineering party,
there were frequent difficulties with the
instrument. Curved lines like arcs of
circles would appear in rapid sequence
across tbe field of vision, which would
be nearly eclipsed at times. These diffi
culties would arise at irregular aud gen
erally inconvenient intervals. The in
strument was carefully examined with
out revealing any cause.
The writer, distrustful of his own eye
sight, visited an emiuent oculist, receiv
ing some v;igue advice And paying •
realistic fee. It was afterward discov
ered that a minute spider had ensconced
himself in the cover of the eyeglass of

tried, does expel every trace of scrofula or
salt rheum, removes the taint which causes
catarrh, neutralizes
the acidity and cures
rheumatism, drives
out the germs ot
malaria, blood poi
soning, etc. It also
vitalizes and en
riches the blood, thus overcoming that tired
feeling, and building up the whole system.
Thousands testify to the superiority of Hood’s
Sarsaparilla as a blood purifier. Foil Infor
