“Dixie” was played in the ball of the
house of representative* a few dsye
ago for the first, thne It will be the
favorite national air by the time the.
south turns Out a few more Schley*,
Hobsods, Bagleys and Bines, thinks
the Savannah Press
—
Bay* the Birmingham Ledger:
‘When this war ia over, it is idle talk
about the government going back *o
its mooring*. Theas moorings are
gone. The proper thing now ia to
make calculations for the future. New
issues are to be met,new policies form
ulated and old things are to pass away.
There can be no-going backward now *
The pronunciation of Arkansas was
officially settled by legislation, and it
is Arkansaw. Now let our lawmakers
lake Hawaii in band at the first op
portunity. If we are to Americanise
the country, let us also Americanise
the name. For an American province
or territory Ha Wah-ee is simply hor
rible.—Augusta Chronicle.
A young man at Auburn went to
enlist. He was given a newspaper to
read, but could not, and was just as
successful when asked to write in
English, and when reminded of bis
deficiency he said : “Veil, I can’t
read nor write in English, but I can
fight like b——in any langwilcb and
I thought id vos fighdtersyou wanted,
not professors.” He was enthusiasti
cally accepted.

It Is said that when a stranger first
goes to visit Niagara be is oppressed
by the roar of the falls. The whole air
aeems impregnated with sound, and
go where be will, be cannot escape its
dreadful monotony. The cataract ad
vertises itself, but the next day the
sound seems fainter, the roar of tbe
falls fsilsto disturb hi* slumbers, and
after a time be ceases to bear it at all
unless be stops to listen al it.
As finally reported to tbe adjutant
general at Washington, the list of
killed and wounded in the fighting at
Biboney on July Ist and 2d foots up
S 3 officers and 208 men killed, 81 offi
cers and 1,203 men wounded and 79
enlisted men missing—among tbe
dead. Tbe total lose of 1,593 which is
extraordinarily large in proportion to
tbe number of men engaged, may be
set down as tbe costly premium paid
by our commanders lor
with modern weapons and means of
defense behind intrenebments*. They
know now that to assault an intrench
dd enemy from the open field is only
to waste human life.
Even tbe business men who pay 25
cents per word for cablegrams from
New York to London have bnt little
idea bow much tbe newspaper* have
to pay for their news, observes an ex
change. For instinoe, the price of a
cable from Manila to New York is
12.25 per word. The messages have to
be received and transmitted a score of
limes before reaching its destinatior.
A single message has cost some of tbe
papers considerably more than a thou
sand dollars, and fortunes have been
spent by some of tbe larger papers al- !
noct daily in collecting tbe news from 1
all parts of the globe. Perhaps the pa- 1
per spending the las'geet amonnt for
lews since the opening of tbe war, is '
be New York Bun. This paper has I
ts exclusive new* service from all sec
ioos of the globe, employing the beet ]
nd most reliable writete of the entire 1
icwspaper world, and tbe almost uni I
ersal verdict among them is that tbe 1
l<ms them all. ’

The directors of the new E*gle and
Phenix Company at. Columbus have
authorised President Jordan to offer
for sale *400,000 of first mortgage gold
bonds of the Eagle and Phenix mills,
bearing 6 per cent, interest. There is
a probability that a large portion ol
these bonds will be taken up in Co
lumbar, as tbe mills are now on a
paying basis. Tbe Columbus Savings
Bank ha* just *ub*cribed to SIOO,OOO
of tbe issue, and other local concerns
may follow suit. The bid* for the
bond* are to be in by the 20th. It is
possible that all tbe bond* may be
