President Arthur is making up his Cabinet by degrees. Blaine is on the rise in the estima tion of the Democrats. Congress has granted the franking privilege to Mrs. Garfield. General Longstreet will not be ap pointed to a place in Arthur’s Cabi net. Small pox is epidemic in Louisville and Cincinnati. It is getting uncom fortably close. What is to hinder the Georgia Mabone from straddling our convict system as an issue and ride into power? It is a question that vitally effects some of our most ignorant V fers. It is really amusing to see how the English journals discuss the Monroe doctrine, when, at the same time, their government is notorious for its inter fcrence with the affairs of the other nations of the earth. In nearly every contest for place between a white Republican and a colored brother, the latter takes the cold potato and departs. There are about three colored men who have paying offices, and these men are nearly white. The exploring steamer, Jeannette, which was sent out to the Arctic re gions year before last, was crushed to pieces last June in the ice. As no tidings had been received from her in over a year, a vessel was sent out in the early part of this year to hunt for her. The Air-Line railroad is getting too noted for its accidents and mishaps. It is said that it is rarely ever that a train is on time on this road. Under its former managers it was earning a splended name for safety and dispatch. Some newspaper man has published an interview with Gen. Joe Johnson, in which that celebrated ex-Confede rate General goes for Jeff Davis in a lively manner. The most important charge that he makes against him is that he managed to carry off in his flight two millions and a half of money belonging to the Confederacy and has never accounted for it. President Arthur has declined an invitation to dine with the Boston mer chants, assigning as a reason that he does not care, while the country is yet in mourning for the late President, to engage in public festivities. There is a delicacy of good sense and propriety in this action that is greatly to General Arthur’s credit. The "rand railroad enterprise of the year is the one that proposes to unite the two continents. The line starts at Houston, Texas, and runs from thence through Mexico and the central American States and ends in Brazil. It is said that the project will soon lie upon a permanent basis and will be put through at once. The greatest objection to the enterprise will be the ease with which it can introduceyellow fever into this country. But we suppose tiie trains can be quarantined. The citizens of Lo c aisvilie and vicinity held a railroad meeting not long since and appointed a committee to look in to their possibilities of making a railro. and connection with the balance of mankind. It appears that the citi zens of that place are divided as to the place to make the connection. The majority favor Lawrenceville, hut Lawrenccville don't want them. Cov ington is the next most popular point. The committee will look into the matter and report at the next meeting. The Mahoneites of the Virginia Le gislature have elected 11. 11. Riddle berger (Ileadjuster) to the United States Senate to succeed Senator Johnston, whose term expires March 4th, 1883. It will be remembered that Kiddleberger was a candidate for Door-Keeper of the Senate just after the inauguration of Garfield, but the Democrats were opposed to his elec tion. It is current rumor that, at the ap proaching meeting of the Directors of the Central Railroad in next month, measures will be taken to water the stock of that corporation. The move is opposed by Mr. Wad ley, the Presi dent, and ids friends, but the opposi tion control the most of the stock and can carry their plans*if they wish. The friends of the Louisville & Nashville railroad are said to have a controlling interest, and that if Mr. Wadley does not do to suit that road he will be re moved from his office. We should regret to see Mr. Wadley deposed from the power that has been created by his own hand simply because it is a Georgia institution. It occurs to u* that wc have hitherto ■ neglected to mention the fact that Congress is in session. We know that \ w.th three-fourtbs of our readers it is ; a matter of but little importance. But then,you know, we always like to keep them posted as to what is going on in the big world beyond us. A bill for SIIO,OOO has been pre sented to Congress as the accounts of Drs. Agnew. Hamilton. Bliss and Rey burn for medical attendance upon President Garfi. Id. The army sur geons will get no pay, but a e to be p om >ted. Ge >rgia's colored lawye-, Styles T. Ilatolims, of Daiien. was found guilty of larceny after trust in Mclntosh Superior Court last week and sen tenced to two years in the chain gang. Hutchins has ha 1 an eventful career, and was capacitated to be a leader amongst bis people, but, from some cause, lie lias proven a failure. Along with the news of Hutchins* fall comes i lie announcement that a colored -lusticeofihePeace in Chatham county bad been found guilty of malpractice in ollice. ••Congressman Speer's declaration that lie will never go into another Democratic caucus is cxhiliarating. lie commands the support of his own constituency and finds himself in a position where lie can and spense with his party associations. He perceives that the Virginia situation is repeated in Georgia with the debt itself left out. and bel eves that an independent movement will be started next year and a full Slate ticket nominated. His confidence may be overwrought, but there can be no doubt that it is a real vista that opens before his prophetic e\cs, although his perspective may be slightly at fault. In any event,, Mr. Speer will be an admirable leader for the independent movement in Georgia, whenever it may !e successfully organized. The Solid South is a shell which may be cracked and punctured almost anywhere.” The above is the editorial comment of the New York Tribune (Republican) upon an in terview with Mr. Speer which that paper had published. We have not been able to obtain the whole of the interview, but, from what wc see of it. it must be an interesting document, as it evidently foreshadows Mr. Speer’s future policy. A Lady’s Wish. “Oh, how I do wish my skin was as clear and soft as yours,” said a lad}' !to her fiiend. “ You can ease!y make it so,” answered the friend. “How?” nquired the first lady. “By using Hop B itters, that makes pure, rich bloo 1 and blooming health.

O. There I was taught that ‘ Don is a prominent element in the physical or i ganisra of mankind : wit' out it life is jan impossibility. A vast percentage of the diseases and premature deaths j to which the race is subject, is caused, or at least made possible by a weak ening of the body in consequence of a lack of Iron in the blood.’ Ila'iig suffered from ill-health, poor digestion and urinary troubles ever since I re covered from typhoid fever, complica ted with malarial fever, I determined to give Iron a trial. From invesliga tion I learned that Brown's Iron Bit ters were the best, and that they did not blacken the teeth, so I concluded to make use of them. They have act ed like r charm. I never before felt so robust, hearty, and strong.” A Merry Christmas and A Happv New Year. Christmas ! The glad word awakes a thrill of joy in many a heart, and I earnestly wish that it will echo joy fully in every home in the world. The little children clap their tiny hands and laugh playfully in the ex uherance of their mirth, as bright vis ions of varied toys (lit before their minds. Shout on, happy child, for it wiil rise as incense to Him who was once a little child. Christmas is com ing ! is the cry of all, the young and the gay, while with light hea r t they prepare for the festival. Christmas awakes in the aged memories of olden years, but the eyes now dim and the cars now deaf to the mel xlies of na ture, can drink from the fountain of memory, and while looking upon the youthful, remember t hat they 100 were once young. But, amidst our rejoic ing, we must, not forget the many homes that are saddened by poverty and sickness, and that a very little given from us, would help them to enjoy it with us. Let us. then, one and all, make up our minds to give something, be it ever so little, t some person who is worse o(f than ourselves. Our glorious country echoes from North to South, and from Kast to West, songs of joy and gladness, but let us not forget those who are suffer ing in the silence of despair. And while sitting—tuinking of Christmas—mem or}* Hies to several years ago, when a very dear friend sent me a fragment of a poem she composed, a few verses of which I'll give: Oh! wild and dreary, sister mine. Is the day of Christ Jesus' birth; No Hitting likeness of that hallowed day That brought our Saviour to the earth? When quafling the (lowing bowl this morn With throbbing heart 1 thought, Of the sinful pleasures indulged this day By our Saviour’s blood 'twas bought. While thousands chase with mirth e'en now The fleeting hours of Christ's birth-day, While thousands weep, and thousands laugh, So glides the years of life away. jTwas Christmas day, one year ago. When you, with heart so light, Entered an earthly paradise Which to \-our gaze was fair and bright. You reveled in the joys awhile And dreamed fair dreams of youth, The fairest of caithly visions, Fnknowing of a short year's ruth. But scarcely had the old year Drifted into the new When the idol of your paradise Had changed into the serpent you knew. And black were the clouds that drifted Over your Eden sky. Obscuring all your sunshine And the lov - glit in jour eye. But hope, my own dear sister. For the morrow may be bright, A rain-bow may appear for you To fill your heart with light. But I will condole by stating I wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Vivian. Because it adds to Personal Beau y by restoring color and lustre to gru\ or faded hair, and is beneficial to the scalp, is why Parker's Hair Balsam is such a popular dressing. Athens Chronicle: “Mr. Thomas Goan informs us of the capture of a large hawk on his premises lastTucs dav. When first discovered it was in 1 tl e act of devouring a full-grown Pl \ - |0 o ith Rock rooster which it had j caught. After driving the hawk from its prey he built a good-size bird trap, and placed it where lie had seen t’ e liawlc, putting what remained oft! e fowl on the trigger. In a few minut s he had the satisfaction of seeing his liawkfhip alight, spring the tr'gge-, and thus become a captive. It men - tired three feet from tip to tip of the wing. Others annoyed by this bird might profit by following Mr. Gean's mode of capture.” The Eastman Times says that • Mr L. L. Burch, of Telfair county, kilnd \ a bald eagle last week which mcasur c l eight feet from tip to tip of its i wings. One of the feet was sent to i this office, and the claws from point to point measured Bs] inches.

UNTIE ~W TANARUS" ORK, 1882. The Sun for ISS2 will make its fifteenth annual revolution under the present man agement, shining, as always, for all, big and little, mean and gracious contented and unhappy, Republican and Democratic, depraved and virtuous, intelligent and obtuse. The Sun's light is for mankind and womankind of every sort; but its ge nial warmth is for the good, while it pours hot discomfort on the blistering backs of the persistently wicked. The Sun of 1808 was a newspaper of a j new kind. It discarded many of the forms, and a multitude of the superfluous words and phrases of ancient journalism. It undertook to report in a fresh, succinct, unconventional way all the news of the world, omitting no event of human inter est. and commenting upon affairs with the fearlessness of absolute independence. The success of this experiment was the success of The Sun. It effected a per manent change in the sty le of Ameiican newspapers. Every important journal estijblished in this country in the dozen years past has been modelled after The Sun. Every important journal already existing has been modified and bettered by the force of The Sun's example. The Sun of 1882 will be the same out spoken, truth-telling, and interesting newspaper By a liberal use of the means which an abundant prosperity affords, we shall make it better than ever before. We shall print all the news, putting it into readable shape, and measuring its importance, not by the traditional yard stick. but by its real interest to the' peo ple. Distance from Printing IlquseSquare is not the first consideration with The Sun. Whenever anjthing happens worth reporting we get the particulars, whether in Brooklyn or in Bokhara. In politics we have decided opinions; and are accustomed to express them in language that can he understood. We say what we think about men and events. That habit is the only secret ofTiiESuN’s political course. The Wkekj Y Sun gathers into eight pages the best matter of the seven daily issues. An Agricultural Department of unequalled merit, full market reports, and a liberal proportion of literary, scientific, and domestic intelligence complete Tiie Weekly Sun, and make it the best news paper for the farmer's household that was ever printed, Who does not know and read and like Tiie Sunday Sun, each number of which is a Golconda of interesting literature, with the best poetry of the day, prose every line worth reading, news, humor— matter enough to fill a good-sized book, and infinitely more varied and entertain ing than any book, big or little? If our idea of what a newspaper should be pleases you, send for The Sun. Our terms are as follows : For the daily Sun. a four-page sheet of twenty-eight columns, the price by mail, post-paid, is 55 cents a month, or SG.SO a year; or, including the Sunday paper, an eight-page sheet of tifty-six columns, the price is 03 cents per month, or §7.70 a year, postage paid. The Sunday edition of Tiie Sun is also furnished separately at $1.20 a year, pos tage paid. The price of The Weekly Sun, cighl pages, fifty-six columns,, is $1 a year, pos tage paid. For clubs of ten sending $lO wc will send an extra copy free. Address I. W.
