MAT NOT SEE SERVICE Colonel Candler’s Regiment May Be Mustered Out Soon- Tbe Third Georgia regiment, Col. John 8. Candler, commanding; may not see service in tbe field if a report current at Washington be tru*. A special to tbe New York Journal from Washington slates that all of tbo troops obtained under the last call will be mustered out of service witbio a month’s time. The special is as follows: “Tbe mustering out of all the sol diers under the third call will be be gun within the next thirty days. Sev enty thousand men will be sent to. their homes. The practice adopted after the civil war will be followed. The soldiers will be sent to the places whore they enlisted, and from there will be given transportation to their homes. All the definite arrsngementa for this reduction will be completed within the next week unless the close of tbe war should be further poet* pound. “An army of 100,000 in addition to the regular army, however, is to be maintained for an unlimited period after peace has been declared. At the war department today it was stated that this number of volunteers will be kept in service, and the statement is in line with the story siready printed exclusively in the Journal. Tbe vol unteers will be needed for service in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines. “Tbe sdministration is not yet as sured of tbe attitude of tbe insurgents after an agreement for peace has been reached."

The tongue spoken by all but a few of tbe dwellers of tbe Philippine Ar chipelago has been the subject of a great deal of curious speculation as well as scientific research. Conserva tive philology and ethnology ascribe to the language and to tbe untold millions of men and women who use it an origin almost undoubtedly Ma layan. Tbe language of tbe archipelago divides into innumerable local dialects, of which vocabularies of about thirty five have been written down. Every dialect is dim with an infinity of idioms, and the technical and pet words of Mussulman and Christian propagandists, Japanese and Chinese castaways, Negrillo wanderers and Negrilla sweethearts, Celestial mer chants and Spanish Dons hi.ve been mixed as occasion offered. Os thesj dialects the most impor tant is tbe Tagaloc. It u spoken by 1,500,000 Tagais in Luzon and tbe ad jacent islands. I'en thousand girls have been often beard chattering Ta galoe all at once in a Manila tobacco factory. . Tbe word tagal means a native; ta gala, a native woman ; zagala, a lady; dagala, a girl; babaque, a native dress, to wear which is to be a native. Luzon is said to be from losong, a primitive rice mill, kept in every house. Cavite is Cavit, tbe “hook,” and not from tbe Latin cave, “be ware.” Manila, which has given name to a valuable textile fibre, and in some places to the peanut, was manilad, “the place of the nilad,” a shrub grow ing wild among the mangroves. The natives, a musical and poetical people, are much given to the inton ing of extemporaneous verses, and their improvisations are often upon the gravest themes. There is a body of poetry consisting largely of lyrics, wedding songs, ro manzas, ballads and ditties of all kinds. These are all set to native music, wierd and fascinating melodies that are a flat insult to Western ideas of tune.

The state democratic executive com mittee met in Atlanta Wednesday,and was called to order by Cbairfoan dußignon. Mr dußignon said it was hfirdly necessary to e<au> that the prime ob ject of tbe call was to inaugurate the state campaign. He said the com mittee must decide Whether er not beadquarters should be opened in At lanta, and provide for raising funds for conducting tbe campaign. He sug gested that a campaign committee be created to take charge of these affairs. Hon. Warner Hill, in accordance with Mr. dußignon’s suggestion,moved that the chair appoint a campaign committee, the number to be deter mined by him. An amendment that Vice Chairman Brown name a minority of tbe com mittee and Chairman dußignon a ma jority was withdrawn st Mr. Brown’s request Mr. Hill’s motion was adopted with an amendment by Mr. Senford that Mr. dußignon and Mr. Brown be chairman and vice chairman of the campaign committee. Communications were read from Gov. Atkinson and Lieut. Col. R. L* Berner, offering to take the stump for Candler and democracy. Mr.dußignon stated that Judge Spencer R. Atkinson bad also expressed his willingness to take an active part in tbe campaign. Hon. R. T. Nesbitt was declared by the state executive committee to be the democratic nominee for senator from the 35th senatorial district. Mr. J. E. Mozley, who contested Col Nesbitt’s claim to the nomination, joined with Col Nesbitt in requesting tbe committee to take the position of arbitrator. The committee’s action was taken io an executive session which lasted for two hours. When the result was announced Mr. Mozley said that he would obdbrfully abide by the decision and support Col. Nesbitt for senator. At 1:45 p. m. the executive commit tee adjourned subject to the call of tbe chairman. An important part of tbe commit tee's work was the decision to have a campaign committee to take charge of tbe party’s fight in -the fall election. Mr. dußignon will appoint the com mittee some time before August 15. He is to decide upon the number rj members.

Not Unwilling Soldiers- Tbe Washington correspondent of the New York Herald does tbe United States volunteer regiments now on their way to Santiago to do garrison duty there, a grave injustice. He says that these regiments, which, when not needed, posed as immunes, are now seemingly unwilling to expose them selves in the Cuban climate. While there are, in fact, no immune regiments, the United States volunteer regiments enlisted in the south, and miscalled immunes except as to their being accustomed to tbe climate of the southern states, are ready to go to Santiago or any other place to which they may be ordered. Tbe officers and men of the two regiments now em barking at this port, repudiate the suggestion that they have any fear of either the enemy or climate io Cuba. No better men ever shouldered mus kets than those who compose the Third and Fifth United States—Volunteers. The Third regiment is virtually a Georgia regiment. All of its compa nies were raised in Georgia, except two. One of these is from t*lorida and tbe other South Carolina. Col. Ray, its commander, served in the Union army in the civil war, and afterwards in tbe regular army. The officers of the companies are young men who entered tbe service to be sol diers, and we predict that they will show themselves to be such. Tbe Fifth regiment is composed of about the same fine material as tbe Third, and what is said of one is ap plicable to the other. The Herat’s oorreepondent was probably misled by some outsiders who did not want these regiments to go to Santiago, but there never were men more ready to go to the front and face danger in whatever shape it may present itself, than tbe United States volunteers from the south. They are soldiers, and will go wherever duty calls.—Savannah News. OALNTORIa..
