Several responsible gentlemen were present and will hour me out in this statement Mr. T. C. Moore will also bear me out in the state ment no notion was taken at Beuvcr- dam looking to the nomination of candidates. I did not tell yon there was no po litical discussion at Beavordam, on the oontrary, I told yon that the dis cussion was public and that we had nothing to conceal. I simply gave you the facts and asked yon to correct the errors as to the Beaverdam and Nashville meet ings reported iu your ooliinms some time ago, which you promised to do. I vnust confess, liewover, that I did not oxpoot you to make a truthful oorreotion of the affair us none of us cx{x>ot justice at your hands. Respectfully, W. 8. IluasKY. The Gazuttk is pleased to give space to the above letter, if for no other purpose but to establish the correctness of the statements hereto fore made by us relative to the inter view between Mr. Bussey and the editor. We positively assert that the interview, although in bis place of business, was private and the conver sation in un undertone. In the exer cise of hia good sense—knowing full well wc would not have submitted to a public discussion ot the matter in hand—culled us from the street into the store where wc could talk the matter over privately, and no one came near us until about the conclu sion of the talk, and those persons do not know what wus said except as Mr. Bussey litis told them since, or from reading our printed statement of it. We deny most positively that Mr. Bussey made the slightest allusion to the political discussion at lieurcr- dam. His talk in connection with that meeting was to correct tiie state ment made by us that nominations were made. Said he, “It was simply a quarterly meeting of the Berrien county alliunce; there was no poti ics in it and suoli u tiling <ts nomi nating cundidutes in my opinion was not thought of.” This was his ex act language as we remember it. Referring to the organization of the third party iu Berrien county, lie used some wuch language us tills: “The people’s purty was organized in the court house with the doors all open and five hundred persons pres ent, It is not a secret organization and has uothing to conceal.” Con tinuing, lie said: “I think yon should report ns correctly and fairly if you propose to report us at all.” The editor has many personal friends on Mr. Bmuey’s side of the political fence whom he esteems very highly aud it is fur from him to deal unfairly with them of willfully re port their meetings incorrectly. We haven’t found it necessary to descend so low to find arguments ih oppo sition to their i»iiti(ail principles The trouble with Mr. Bussey is, like bis illustrious pretype, Jingo Tom Watson, he tells the truth an far as lie goes, but he doesn't go fur enough.

The Fidelity Mutual, of Philadel phia, is not the oldest, n6r is it the largest insurance company in the world, but it is unquestionably the strongest. No company of which we have any knowledge, whether foreign or domeitie, can compare with it in resources and enduring powers. Its plans conform to well established in surance principles, anti cure ull the weak points of both co-operative aud old line systems of insurance. Plans cheerfully given by M. J. Kent, ageut, Tifton, Ga. Hon. W. W. Webb, of Lowndes, nlliance lecturer for the eleventh congressional district, is a candidate for the senatorial nomination in the sixth districtr-miule so by the voice of his neighbors and friends, mem bers of the lluhiru democratic club. Whatever else may be laid to the charge of the democrats of the sixth senatorial district they do not pro pose to have the sin of ingratitude added to the list. This endorsement comes as a just and gruoeful tribute to the manly services of him who threw himself iuto the bread), when division and strife were rending this democracy of the eleventh congressional district in twain, and brought order out of chn os ntid victory out of defeat. Hon. W. W. Webb is entitled to this recognition at the hands of the people mid the Gazetth is glad lie is to receive it. The work whioh the llahini dem ocratic club lias so nicely and au spiciously begun should be taken up by the great democratic brotherhood Eolmls, l.iiwndez ami Berrien comities and carried to a successful completion. Tho Hahira democratic club met in regular meeting lust Monday night und the question wus asked, “What shall be done to the man whom the people delight to honor?” and the answer came hack witli earnest unan imity: “Webb for senator 1" Mr. Webb is a Isiwndes county man “to the manner born." Ho was born and reared in the backwoods amid tho tail pines of the Upjier Fork district of I.owmles county, and his career lias been a most re markable one. Growing up to man hood with little or no advantages to scoure an education lie has taken position among his fellows that may well be envied by men whose advan tages have been far superior to his. lie has u high order of talent ns a pubiio speaker—eloquent and foroe- ful, lie never fails to oarry home to his hearers the argument iio wishes to impress upon them. It is true his grammar is lint alwuys faultless or his rhetoric beyond successful criticism, still his good sense and logical reasoning makes up largely for the deficiiucy in graiiiiuui mid rhetoric. Such men ns Billy Webb can’t In- kept in tiie buck ground, they come naturally to tiie front, and wield un immense power for good in any rmi8o they may espouse. Mr. Webb was among the first to join the alliance organizuliiui ill this section of country and inis evertieen faithful to its original principles, lie went just ns far into politics, in his allegiance to tiie alliance, ns his conscience and the principles of the order would soucliou. But when lie reached thin limit, lie sturdily re fused to go any further. When the office-seekers, in ttieir wild chase for place and pelf, sought to transform tiie order into a political machine Mr. Webb enlisted on the side of the opposition and did yeoman’s work against it. And when the final fight came which ended in tiie division of the alliance—a largo number going into tiie third or so-called people's party— he remained true to democra cy, and lie wus largely instrumental in tiis defeat of Atkinson and Ocala- ism in the recent Tnruer-Atkinsoc fight in tiie eleventh congressional district. Mr. Webb was president of tiie Lowndes comity alliance in the palmy days of the order and it grew and flourished under ids administra tion. He was president during the past term, but at the last quarterly meeting third partyism was so far in the ascendancy in the order a miser able attempt was nude to humiliate him by electing John W. Hagan, an avowed’third party nun, in his place as president ami electing him as^str; Mssm ant county lecturer to a man greatly his mental inferior. Mr. Webb has done much, by pre cept and example, to reach the peo ple that they ure the architects of their own fortune or misfortune. He a successful farmer, one among the few who makes money on their farms. His farm is an example to his neighbors what success can be at tained ou a Lowndes county farm by the exercise of energy, persever ance and good sense. Mr. Webb will uiulonbtedly make a strong race for Senator. He is pop ular and energotic,and now he is in tiie race he will make a superb fight for victory!

Irahku.a, July 24.—A special from Tifton to the Constitution a few days since, stated that a pretty wo man was in the moonlight distillery business in Berrien county. There must be somei truth in this. Last Friday night a citizen of Worth whs riding along a road in Berrien, when - a pretty and dualling woman oil horseback galloped past him aud went tike lightning up the road. The oiiixen spurred his horse and finally succeed in overtaking her. The wo man, finding that flight was useless, drew a black mask over her face and Ireld a conversation with tiie gentle man. Site said that, for reasons that were secret, she wished to preserve Iter identity; but pulling a flask from her saddle-bags, she offered the gen tleman a drink of first-class corn, which lie would not take until she had first sipped some of it from the same glass. In the course of the conversation the woman said: “1 thought you were a revenue detec tive,” and that gave her secret away. Who can . she be? is a question which is puzzling a number of peo ple. itomebody is evidently either try ing to appease the Constitution’s fondness for sensation or impose npon the managing editor** creduli ty.
