There is considerable activity in political circles in Georgia, and es pecially about Atlanta. Candidates themselves, newspaper correspon dents and the impecunious follow ers who pick up thiffcrumbs let fall fro nit he table of this or that man or clique, think and talk of but little else. This gossip does not signify much, and yet it is not without interest; and hence we reproduce some of it here from the well-informed crrespondent of the Savannah Times. In a late letter from Atlanta he says: Politics, both State and national, seem to he warming lip in this sec tion. It is now stated that cx-Con- gressman W. E. Smith, better known as “Tote” Smith, of Albany, Judge Tomas G. Simmons of Macon, and Louis F. Garrard of Col umbus, wiil be in the race for Gover nor. As a matter of course, Gov. McDaniel will stand for re-elec tion. If all of these are in the race a lively contest will be the outcome. Bacon, I hardly think, will try it again, as I learn that recently he has been employed as counsel in some very important suits that will command his undivided atten tion and payjhim far better than the Governorship. I Lis name, how ever, has been mentioned very fa vorably in this connection by many of the newspapers of the State, and it is a well known fact that his numerous friends all over Georgia are as determined as ever to put him in the executive chair as soon as an opportunity affords it. With regard to the Congress ional districts, the correspondent gathers the followings rumors, without vouching- for their entire accuracy: It is said that in the first Con gressional district, the Hon. A. P. Adams will make the race for Con gress at the next election. In the second, the Hon. C. B, Wooten is spoken of as the man who will try to capture Congressman Turner’s seat. Judge Crisp, of the third, now in Congress, will, it is said, find an opponent for Ids seat in the person of Judge A. C, Pate. The fourth has always been abundantly supplied with Congressional tim ber, and Buchanan will no doubt find plenty of opposition when the time comes. It is suggested that Hon. W. A. Little, of Columbus, or P. F. Smith, of Newnan, may enter the race. Coming down to the fifth, it is predicted on all sides that an inter- resting fight will thke place for Hammond’s seat. Colonel Ham mond is now here, attending to some law business and looking over the field withe an anxious eye. He i much exercised over Captain Jackson’s candidacy. * * * A close observer tells, me that he thinks Jackson will get the delegates from tin’s county, hut even then the chan ces are that lie will be beaten by some man from the lower part of the district, as there is [a 'strong feeling among the masses of the district that Fulton has had the member long enough. To-day it is authoritatively announced that Boynton is no long er in the race for Congress in the fifth. This announcement was re ceived with much surprise, inas much as it was pretty generally believed that the complexion of the district was favorable to him.— Along with this announcment comes the statement that Judge John D. Stewart, of Spalding, will enter the contest. The impression prevails here that if Judge Stewart makes the race, he will poll the strength of Boynton, carrying the same counties and capturing the nomination. If Livingston runs, it is generally conceded that he will capture the votes of Newton and Rockdale counties, and will go into the convention with four votes.— If Hammond is beaten and Jackson nominated, it is more than proba ble that some Independent will tackle him, in which event the con test will be a lively one from be- gining to end. Blount of the sixth, it is said, is losing a good deal of sleep, caused by Hardeman’s prospective candi dacy. He feels that if Hardeman is in the race he will not have the walk over that he has had for some years past. Mo far, Clements does not seem to have any fixed opposition in the seventh. Before the ball opens, however, he may have his hands full, as there are a dozen men in that district who want t(>3 go to Congress, and want to go there bad. The Eighth, now represedted by Hon. Seaborn Reese, lias not de veloped any candidates so far, and persons from that district | who take an interest in politics tell Subscirbe for the Free Press. me that Reese will have no oppo sition. He is a remarkably pop- ! ular man, always making friends I and rarely manufacturing ene- ! mies. In the ninth I don’t know wheth er Candler will havevany opposi- | tion or not, but the chances are that lie will, as he lias not develop- ; ed as much as his friends hoped that lie would. The redistricting of the Ninth lias thrown into that district new Congressional timber, and this fact may complicate mat ters to some extent. | The Tenth, which is the. new dis trict, seems to have settled on | Hon. George T. Barnes as the conn ! ing man. That district has plenty of Congressional timber, every I stick anxious for Congressional i honors. From the Atlanta Constitution. A Boat on the River.

It is a frequent saying that you can get a man to sign a petition for anything. In Cincinnati a year or two ago one prominent merchant bet another $100 that he could get one hundred first-class signatures among the members of the Cham ber of Commerce asking for the immediate execution of the mayor of the city for gross malfeasance in office. The man who proposed the bet at once drew up a petition re citing imaginary wrongs on the part of the mayor and asking the Legislature (which had no authori ty over him) to hang him for them. Going from one business friend to another, he said: “Here’s a little petition I want you to sign. It’s all right. Just a needed change in the city goyornipent. Flurry up; give me your name.” Before the close of the business day lie was able to tack that ridiculous peti tion oil the wall with one hundred signatures hanging to it. That isn’t done every day, hut something like it is. M KTHODIST EFISCOrAL. dean’ Corinth, 1st Sunday and Sunday night; said Mt.

Rowland Hill was preaching once upon a time, on the subject of debt, when a nnih in the audience, in a low tone wondered if lie— the preacher—was punctual always in paying his debts. The minister heard him, and stopped in the midst of a sentence, and looked him in the face. “My vejy good friend,” he said, “I think I never paid a debt in my life,—saving only the debt men tioned hy Saint Paul, in my text— ‘Owe no man anything, hut to love one another.’ As for any other debt hut that of love, I never in my life bought a tiling for which I could not, and did not, pay on the spot.” “Wliat did that lady say?” asked Mr. Buyem of his confidential clerk. “I’d rather not repeat her words, sir,” replied the clerk. “But 1 must know, Mr. Plume—must know, sir.” “Oh! if you insist upon it, sir, I suppose I must tell you. She said you were all business, but you lacked culture.” “So!” ex claimed Air. Buyem in astonish ment. “Lack culture, eh? Look here, Air. Plume; d’ye know you’d oughter told me o’ that long ago ? Let’s have, some right away, before Scrimp & Blowhard can get ahead of us,”—Boston Transcript. and F. F. Dupree. Neither of them are mechanics* both of them being- plain farmers. The building of the boat came about ill this manner:— They were running a steam gin and after the ginning season be came dull and their engine was standing idle they determined to see if they could make it bring their guano from market. They procured a common flat-boat and mounted their engine, a small six horse pow er farm engine, on it. Then, with remarkable Ingenuity, they con structed a stern wheel with pad dles. Then, calling into service the shafting and belting used in run ning their gin', they connected the engine. with the paddles. Then they made a rudder. They were then reedy for the first trial. Tak ing on hoard with them an expe rienced mechanic, they made the trial. Everything worked splen didly. Then, on Tuesday morning they made the first trip for freight. In two hours and a half they were at the Georgia Pacific bridge. Here they stopped and took on six tons of guano previously shipped there for them. On their return their wood gave opt and they were for ced to float back down to Adaholt’s ferry. However, they made the trip in much quicker time and as safely with less inconvenience than could have been done with wagons, besides hauling at one load of the boat as much as ten wagons could have carried over the country roads. They could have made a much bet ter time had the shape of the boat allowed it. rt being only a flat-boat, in going swiftly up stream the wa ter would run over the head block of the boat, and on that account they were forced to move slowly. The river is very rough in places between the ferry and the bridge- in fact, much rougher than for six ty miles below the ferry. It is said that the boat could get down to Franklin, and there could con nect with the boats that ply regular ly between West Point and that place. Thus the river could be made navigable from Tcevillcr to West Point a distance of about one hundred miles. It is very certain that in the spring when the water is high they could reach Franklin. If the river could lie made nav- igable for these small steamers, a very rich section of country that is now shut out from Atlanta would he opened to her trade and her merchants would reap large benefits from it. This boat makes another trip to-morrow and will carry six tones of guano to Air. James M. Wilson’s place on the river. A prominent merchant said yesterday that he had orders for a hundred tones of guano from the farmers along tlic river, all to be delivered hy the boat. Messrs. Cantrell & Dupree will add some machinery to their boat, and will make regular trips between the Georgia Pacific bridge and Ada holt’s ferrv. An old Indian chief of a hostile tribe recently made a speech, in which he called himself a “blasted oak,” Pale-faces whom lie and his tribe have been annoying call him a blasted nuisance* A young lady in Ulster county called at a lawyer’s office in King ston last week and asked to have suit begun against a former lover for breach of promise. “He promised to marry me four times,” she said, “but he hasn’t kept Ids word, and my affections are all blighted.” How much damage do you wish to claim ?” said the polite lawyer. “Well, I was blighted four times, and I think $100 a blight is none too much.” So suit was entered at $400 dam ages for four blights.—N.

The tree had been dead and rotten for a long time, and the axe would hardly make the chips fly. In the stump just at the place of severance, half way between the heart and the outer edge of the tree, he found a small, round bottle, with the origi nal cork stopper in it, and yet the bottle filled partly with punk, which was evidently part of the growth of the tree, and partly with some solidified liquid. Sticking in the punk in the bottle was a large old-fashioned pin, the head of which was made separate from the 1 body and attached afterwards, as was the fashion when pins were • first made.
