There is still hope for Alfonso XIII An exchange says that “b'e may grow op to owns saloon in New Y<Jrk city, if he is good ” The senate and boose committee have agreed to unite on a report of a bankruptcy bill which will probably pass daring the present session. The most expensive drug kn >wn i» physostigmine, an ounce of which is said to cost nearly $1,000,000. It is prepared from the Calabar bean, and t is used io the diseases of the eye. The American fighter is a terror under whatever circumstances he may go into the conflict. Some of the hardest fighting yet done io Cuba was by marines on shore and cavalry afoot. A Texas commercial olob has agreed to purchase the first bale of new crop Texas cotton and present it to the government to be made into gun cot* ton to be fired by the Vesuvius against the Spaniards. A German scientist has discovered that the human memory is better in summer than in winter. He also says that among the worst foes of memory are too much food, too much physical exercise and too much education. esse— ■ -Be And now we have a negro assistant United State, district attorney for North Carolina. As things are going it will not be long before the negroes will have first place and the scallawag white republicans will be glad to serve under them. An enthusiastic American has dis* covered that among their other rich products, the Philippine Islands yield a total of about 300,000 tons of sugar each year. If the sugar trust ever hears of that it will peremptorily or* der the war stopped. James Marcellus Hobson, a brother of the Merrimac hero, has by competi* tive examination won an appointment at West Point. For four years past be has been trying to secure appoint* meat at the Annanapolis Naval Acad emy, but could not overcome the op position of an 'unfriendly congress man. The Oregon seems destined to make a reputation as a globe trotter. And the beet part of it is, when she has reached the end of a long journey, she shows up ready to do business with all comers. If the Oregon is not the finest and most trustworthy fight ing craft upon the bosom of the deep, she comes mighty close to it. There has been a rise in the market value of wives in Natal, South Africa, Before the rindepest killed so many cattle the quotation was eleven head of cattle, valued at £33; but eleven bead now represents £132. [lt is being urged that the government should fix three bead as the price of a wife for the present, and should make it a rule that the money equivalent may be paid where cattle are unprocurable. The passage of the H&waiian resolu tion if no mistake has been made in the count, is now simply a question cf endurance. If the opponents can protract the debate until the close of the session, it will go over till next winter, otherwise it will through at t lhie session. It is a queer way of de liberating, but the majority of the sen ate will have no other.—Louisville Courier Journal. WM. E. H. SEARCY, JR., Counsellor at Law, GRIFFIN, GA. GENERAL PRACTICE. The prospective removal of the Geor gia regimenji to the frontal an early day will bring the war right homo to ue, says the Savannah News. The lists of wounded and dead are now scanned with sincere sympathy for those in other states who are called upon to mourn their losses. Within a short time we shall be eagerly reading those lists which may, and probably will, bring poignant grief into our own community. However, this is war, and “war i. bell.” Those Who remain behind must be brave as well as those who go to the front. ■aBMBSMSBSLLIJ - -"'"S-'W After three or four years of canvass ing, the attempt in North Carolina to raise among the negroes of the South $50,000 with which to build a cotton mill to be officered and manned en tirely by negroes, has practically failed, and subscriptions are now being asked from white capitalists. The probabilities are that upon its new baria the scheme will go through. Bev eral cotton mill owners have sub scribed, in order that the value of ne gro.help iu cotton mills may be tested. The negro labor feature of the enter prise ie to be retained. Grant Drilliac the Home Militia. Grant left West Point in midsummer and speht his furlough in Bethel and Georgetown. He was invited by the offi cers of the militia to drill the troops at * ‘general muster, ’ ’ which took place at Rusaelsville during August of 1844. William Wilson and Peter Wamax are two of the few witnesses living who re member the splendid occasion. It impressed itself ineffaceably on young Wilson’s mind because it seemed wonderful, even revolutionary, to see a young lad such as Cadet Grant looked, ordering the pompous old officers about. “He looked very young, very slender vid very pale. “He was dressed in a long blue coat, with big epaulets and big brass buttons, and his trousers seemed to be white, though they may have been a light gray. He wore a cap and a red sash around his waist, and he rode his horse in fine style. “I was particularly struck with his voice—that is, his way of using it. The old men barked out their commands. You couldn’t tell what they said Noise seemed to be their idea of command, but Grant’s voice was clear and calm and cut across the parade ground with great precision. It was rather high in pitch, but it was trained. I could tell that, though I was only a boy. ’ ’—Ham lin Garland iu McClure’s Magazine. ■NiHiiHiMUMiiHuniiiiiiuiHinmnMiiiiiiiiiHiiißa 1 MOTHERS, IREAD THIS!
