There is a young man in Griffin so very polite that be will not talk to a young lady through the telephone without first taking his hat off. Spencer R. Atkinson. The Brunswick Cal), evidently speaking by the card, says: “From all indications it looks very much like Judge Spencer R. Atkinson is really going to make the race for governor, and more, it looks like he is going to make a good one, too.” If this be truly eo Judge Atkinson is something like President Grant said Sam Bard was, “most 100 blamed unanimous.” It seems he is bard to satisfy with an office. First, for val id considerations he was made a judge qd the supreme bench. Finding him* self dissatisfied in that high circle he asked to be made railroad commission er. ’ Now he finds that there is either too much work in that place or else he is not willing to perform the little there is to do, be aspires to another place, aod wants to be governor. Well, U is a laudable ambition, but there is such a thing as a man’s ambi tion overleaping iteelf. Judge Atkin sou is not such a colossus as to bestride the state and pick up any little office bis humor may fancy. He bad better content himself with what he has al ready in band. It is fully equal to his merits. But perhaps the judge is run ning upon bis name. If so, he is mak ing a mistake. The name of Atkinson has lost its cunning. One governor named Atkinson is enough for a life* time.—Atlanta Commercial. a MOZLEY’S LEMON ELIXIR. Its Wonderful Effect on the Liver, Stom ach, Bowels and Kidneys.

While Mr. Joe Leiter is attempting to pick up a few millions on a wheat speculation, his young sister, Daisy, is said to be about ready to risk $10,000,- 000 on a matrimonial venture—that is to say, she thinks of braving papa’s threat to disinherit her if she marries a poor young man with whom she is in love. If Daisy does that she will be entitled to the designation in the Leiter family, as the Napoleon of spec ulators, and not Joseph.—Houston Post. lie- s'} (tail* yXTv s/ , ““ f * * ffeutanZ JT // evtry at DISSOLUTION NOTICE.
