The Journal’* Levity.
The editor of the Waycross
Journal is a little bit supercilious
in K his reply to “Our Choice,”
which appeard in our columns two
weeks ago.
Our esteemed contemporary
should save his sarcasm ’till the
battle is in full tilt. There may
come a time when he will need all
his light artillery,
We are indirectly informed that
Judge Dart has announced that he
is not at present in the race for so
licitor next term, but, as we sug
gested in “Our Choice,” the race
is a long way off and there are
many angles to turn and we do
not know what lurks behind the
corners in our front.
We warn the Journal not to
handle Judge Dart too lightly as a
possible candidate. The signs of
the times are too evident, and the
many public and private responses
to “Our Choice” from all over the
circuit indicate that Mr. Brantley
might have left a possible vacancy
somewhere at sometime despite
the fact that the Jornal has not
been able to see it.

The Breeze published an extract
last week from a communication of
Representative McDonald, which
appeared in the Waycross Herald,
in regard to the Spottswood spot
less” one hundred dollars, that it
desires to counteract. The article,
if let remain as it stands, is likely
to do Mr. Bennett harm, which
the Breeze does not intend at pres
ent, and for that reason desires to
explain that there is nothing in it.
It had no connection with Mr.
Spottswood’s United States court
prosecutions, whatever, but was
fired at Mr. Bennett by McDonald
in a joke. Mr. Bennett had no
connection with the Spottswood of
fer for one hundred dollars to con
trol the republican or any other
vote, nor did he have anything to
do with the collection of one hun
dred dollars cost in Mr. Spots
wood’s court.

Returned from New York.
Mr. J. A. Jones, who is fast
coming to the front as one of the
leading dry goods and clothing
men of Southern Georgia, returned
from New York last Thursday
morning, and informs the Breeze
tliut he lias bought such a heavy
stock of seasonable goods (struck
a wholesale house in trouble) that
lie fears that his store will not be
large enough to allow him shelf
room. In order to sell them he has
determined to put a notch just
above cost. Watch the Breeze for
