Now that the Exposition has proved

General Gordon, on last Friday,
drove the first spike in the iron for the
track of the Georgia Pacific, near At

will be of more than ordinary impor

Arthur's problem in regard to the
solid South is how to give the patron
age to the Independents, in order to
disrupt the Democratic party, and at
the same time keep the Republicans
in heart without a chance at the swill
tub.
Ed Cox, the Alston murderer, has
immortalized himself. In the absence
of one of the guards a trusty recently
took a mule and made for the woods.
Cox pursued him'for two days and
captured the convict in Alabama and
brought him and the mule safely back
to camp.
The Greenbackers sincerely trust
that they will hold the balance of
power in the organizing of the next
House of Representatives. Their
leaders sav that the Greenback mem

The Walton Neivs says that “ a
Texas doctor has discovered that the

such a disease as rheumatism in
Georgia or no bed bugs. Which horn
will you take ?
When the Exposition is over, and
Atlanta straightens herself up and
lakes a look over the magnitude of the
job that she has just brought to a suc
cessful finish, she will find no one
single factor that has contributed more
to the success of the concern than her
big daily. It has been persistent in
season and out of season, and has
never yet lagged in its exertions.
’Tis said that the maids of North
Georgia are migrating to Utah to get
husbands. We never did think that
the Georgia girls would make good
“ E phirihns w” wives. We had
been led to believe that it was a hard
matter to reconcile them to a whole
husband, but we suppose we have
been mistaken.
Several years ago a charter was
granted for a railroad from Gridin to
Madison, via Monticello, and a con
siderable amount of grading was done,
but, from some cause, the enterprise
languished and was about abandoned.
Now the news reaches us that the
lranehise for said road has been pur
chased by the Cole syndicate and the
road will be built at once. This is
good news for Griffin and the country 7
through which the road will run.
While wo understand the Gaines
ville Southron's independentism on
most subjects, yet we must confess
e are at a loss to know bv what
course of reasoning it can make up
its mind to stomach Mahone. Wo
eliminate altogether the local issues
iu Virginia or his personal history,
and have reference only to his course
in National politics since his entrance
into the Senate.
ihe Athens Watchman tells of an
affuii of honor that is impending be
tween Mr. E. W. Rucker, of Athens,
and lion. James M. Smith, of Ogle
thorpe. The fact that the possibility
of such an occurrence taking place
has been made public is a sure indi
cation that the differences between the
gentlemen has either been settled or
that the duel will not take place.
The dead Garfield's religions belief
is on deck now for discussion. We
will state, for the benefit of those in
tcrested, that Hie dead President has
by tin* time, in all pi-obainiity. settled

factorilv to ins mind. With him the
decision of tne revisers of the New

Owing to the small amount of 5
cent nickel pieces in the Treasury, the
Secretary has instructed the Director
of the mint to cause sl7 540 in old
copper cents. $lO4 018 in copper nickel
cents, now in the Philadelphia mint,
o be recoined into five cent nickel
pieces, a .and instructions have already
neon given to carry out the direction.
It will he some weeks before the mint
will be ready to commence the re-coin

While they were conveying Guit
tcau from the Court House to the jail,
a young man rode up to the prison van
and took a shot at Guitteau and rode
off at a furious rate. This is the sec
ond attempt that has been made upon
Ins life since his imprisonment. The
would-be assassin has been arrested,
tuit no doubt thinks he wdl make an
easy escape of it. owing to the preju
dice that is against his would-be vic
tim. It strikes us that, even if Guit
teau is a mean, despicable wretch, any
attempt upon his life should be pun
ished with as much severity as in an\
ordinary instance.
The Republican party propose to
get around the repudiating proclivities
of their Virginia allies by the decision
of the Unite! States Supreme Court
upon their relief measures. It may
be possible that they have not consid
ered the magnitude of the movement
to which, in their greed for power,
they have given their aid and sympa
thy. for it is not probable that the
United States Court will attempt to
interfere with a sovereign State as to
the disposition of its debts, and if it
does it will run the repudiators from
the Republican party. They can't get
the money on tl.cir bonds and the
power too.
The Washington correspondent of
the Savannah Morning News gives
some stale information in reference to
what Mr. Speer is doing in regard to
appointments to tiie Federal offices in
tins District. YYe believe that Mr.
S,/eer himself makes no secret of the
fact that iie has requested the Presi
dent to withhold one particular ap
pointment until lie could be heard in
person upon the merits of the case.
We can readily understand how he
can consistently approach the Presi
dent upon the subject without trading
with him iu any respect, and can see
no objection in his so doing, and will
give Lnu the benefit ol the doubt as to
the trading part.
A Washington special says : "There
is a lot of so called Southern Republi
cans in this city who are on every
occasion coining to the front to make
themselves conspicuous in National
politics. They are for the most part
carpet-hag ex-members of Congress
and ex Federal officials, who went to
the South to get office and left that
section as soon as the offices were
taken away 7 from them. They are
setting ready now to call on President
Arthur and fire off a lot of speeches
and resolutions at him. giving their
views of what his Southern policy
ought to be and why he should ap
point a Southern man in his Cabinet.
They have about as much right to
speak for the South as they have for
New York or Massachusetts.”
The same parties who. a little more
than two years ago, knocked Cole from
his throne as king of the Nashville &
Chattanooga railroad combination are
again at work trying to upset his
plans. This time they are working
through the Memphis & Charleston
railroad stock. Several years ago the
Memphis & Charleston railroad was
terribly run down, and the stock was
not worth more than five cents on the
dollar. At this juncture it was leased
for twenty years to the East Tennes
see, \ irginia & Georgia railroad, which
road is the basis of the Cole system.
The Memphis & Charleston was put
in first-class order in every respect,
and now forms an important part of
the Cole system. Cole’s enemies have
been buying up a majority of the
stock of the road, and have elected a
friendly President and Board of Di
rectors, and they now propose to break
the lease to the East Tennessee. Yir
ginia & Georgia road, and thus de
prive Cole of an important link in his
combination. 11 is hardly to be sup
posed that they will succeed, as no
Court will be so ridiculous as to annul
the lease and turn the road over to its
stockholders, when they have, of tlieir
own free will, leased it away.
Humbugged Again.
I saw so much said about the me
rits of Hop Bitters, and my wife, who
was always doctoring, and never well,
teased me so urgently to get her some
I concluded to be humbugged again ;
and I am glad I did, for in les3 than
two months use of the Bitters my wife
was cured, and has remained so for
eighteen months since. I like such
humbugging.— 11. TANARUS., St. Paul.—Pio

It is solemnly stated that a man at
Rome wanted to go-to Coup’s circus
when it exhibited there, and didn't
have the money. lie tried to borrow
it, but failed. He then went to a mer
chant and bought a dollar’s worth of
coffee on credit, sold it for seventy-five
cents cash, and was soon viewing the
animals and the leapers with as much
unconcern as the man who had to get
a twenty dollar bill changed to pur*
chase his ticket.
Burned to Death.
On last Friday niglit Mrs. Rebecca
Cates, wife of Joshua Calcs, of tins
county, was burned to death under
very remarkable circumstances. She
is about fifty years of age and it seems
from the evidence taken at the inquest
was in the habit of drinking liquor.
On that niglit her husband went over
to the residence of Mr. Ford leaving
her at home. He returned at about
one o'clock on Saturday morn*ng and
found his wife lying in the yard with
a’l her clothing burned off except a
breakfast shawl about her neck. She
had been intoxicated that evening.
The evidence further shows that
Samuel Goddard was staying all niglit
at the house and was on ti e bed asleep
when Cates got borne. He went to
bed about 10 o'clock and there bad
been no one there except Geo. W.
Cates, her son, who was setting by the
fire place with It s mother. Goddard
knew nothing of the burning until old
man Cates waked him up to bell) him
get his wife in the house. He says
that deceased and George were very
drunk when be retired but that she
was able to walk.
How she came to be burned will
always remain a matter of conjecture,
as none of the witnesses seem to knmv
liovv she caught. A. J. Balew testified
that Geo. Cates came home about day.
drunk, and stated that lie saw a woman
get burnt up and that be put out the
fire ; that lie never heard such screams
in his life, that he pulled her out doors
and extinguished the fire will) a bucket
of water, but be was so drunk be did
not know who the woman was.
There is a mystery connected with
this unfortunate affair. How a woman
could burn up and her screams not
awake a grown man in the house; or
that her son should pu‘ out the flames
that were consuming his mother and
not know who it was, can only be ex
plained upon the idea that all parties
were dead diunk, and, from the
evidence, that seemed to lie their con
dilion.— Gwinnett Herald.
Little Mary, daughter of Mr. T. E.
Danbury, editor of the Rome Tribune ,
makes considerable money by raising
white, blue and variegated colored rab
bits, which she readily sells for $3 per

all of which Coup’s circus wanted
the other day. but she preferred to sell
them to Georgians lest the stock might
be lost.
