When peace shall have been de* dared Senator Proctor should lake an* other trip to Cuba and ascertain how many of lire 500,000 starving recon* cenlrados remain.—Augusta Cbrooi* °*®‘ We have spent 1140,000.000 on tbe war and paid 148,000,000 for tbe de ficit caused by the Dingley bill. That will nearly exhaust the $200,000,000 derived from the bond issue. Tbe ar* niies will be kept in the field until the other $200,000,000 are issued. Wall street will see to ’.hat—Louisville Diepatch. 11 Gen. “Joe” Wheeler thinks that anybody in this part of the country likes him less because, in tbe excite* meet of tbe moment, be dropped thir ty odd years out of his calender at Santiago afld told bis men to go ins end clean out tbe infernal Yankees, let him come to New York and see bow a touch of nature makes the whole country kin.—New York Tri bune. No native government is possible in Cuba. No American government is ready or likely to bo ready for a long time to come. Io the meantime, the Spanish army is starving with the civ il population. Events eoem to have moved so quickly as to leave the American war office absolutely unpre* pared to deal with tbe problems much greater than tbe provisioning of tbe field force at Santiago.—London Times. Secretary Long can claim for him* self the credit of the victory at Santis go with as much plausibility as be claims it for Admiral Sampson. The publio is thoroughly conversant with all tbe facts and Secretary Long ap pears only as a special pleader and not aa an authority. He has nothing new to tell. Hie conclusions are dogmatic and tbe only effect of bis letter will be to strengthen the charge of favoritism which, whether unjustly or not, has already been brought against tbe navy department in regard to Admiral Sampson. UDUSTRIALEDnCATION. The State Agricultural Society, at their meeting at Indian Springs, which has just adjourned, have de dared unanimously tor industrial ed* ucation in Georgia, and Griffio, if she is alive to her interests, will awake from her “deep sleep”'and aid in tbe good cause. She bolds the key to the situation, and has men able and will ing to handle it. Tbe Call was the first paper in Georgia to raise the alarm. Let's get to work and secure the agricultural college. -• < r ■■ ,x- s - 'lk? Sobbed the Grave. * A startling incident, of which Mr. Oliver, of Philadelphia, was tbe sub ject, is narrated by him as follows: ’-I was in a most dreadful condition. My akin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite—gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians bad given me up. Fortu nately a friend advised trying ‘Electric Bitters'; and to my great joy and sur prise, tbe first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim.” No one should fail to try them. Only 50 cts per bottle at Carlisle & Ward and J. N. Harris A Soo's drug store.
