It would bo well for people abroad to look at the course Griffin is pursu ing, and do something for them selves. There are hundreds of poo pies, wage earners,who flock to Grif¬ fin to get employ merit in her matin facturing establishments. There is no Georgia ! •„ ; of its size that can boast of as many manfacturing es tablishments- The following are some of the principal manufacturing industries, cotton mill, iron and brass founchs, clmii factory, sash, door and blind factory, guano fac lory, and planing mill," ".McDonough has blowed in $15, 000 ou the G.

The stock oftho Griffin cotton mill is now selling at $100 per share which originally sold for $100. The stock holders of the mill are making over 20 per cent, on the in ve.'tment, and have subscribed $100, 000, to build a new mill, which will be built at once, if you want a sure invev, ticut, that will pay for all time to c me", put up a cot Ion mill that will grind out 20 per cent per annum with cotton in itseare.” A Sad Case Case of Poisoning is i hat of any man or woman affieted with disease or derangement of the liv er, 1 1 suiting iu poisonous accumulations in the blood, serojulons affections, sick headaches, and diseases of the kidneys, lungs or heart.

ACGU8TINE. The Subtropical Exposition»The Streets of Jacksonville aud Hie St. Augustine Hotel. Special Correspondence New; . Jacksonville, Feb. 10,’88. As I told you in my last letter from Waycross, T. B. Reams and myself remained over there and took the morning train this morning for this place. We were unfortunately de layed on the way, and in ihe inem time it commenced to rain shout ten o’clock in the morning, and contio ued to rain until late in the evening; which circumstance interfered very much with enjoyments, as well as with our plans. It prevented us from going to St. Augustine. Most of (jur delegation came on down here last night and so far as I know they all went down to St. Augustine. All that 1 have heard from report the mammoth hotel there tho grandest one on the continent. All hands that have visited the grand display of tropical fruits here at the Exposition grounds pronounce it as indescribable and can only be ap predated by visiting them. Now, for a few words about Jacksonville. Four years ago I was here. It was a grand place then, but the improve¬ ments made since I was here four years ago are simply astonishing. I mention especially the improvements on the streets. They were a bed of deepi sand and now they have them paved with blocks of cypress standing on end, sawed smooth and sysiemati cally put in, making the streets smooth and nice,and serves the same purpose as the Belgian rock. As you know, this is a fast age iu which we live and an age of great im provemeutin travel,. ICor instance it is 353 miles from Griffin to Jackson ville via Albany. Trains that leave here at 7 o’clock p. m. will arrive in Griffin at 11:30 next day, if no deten tion occurs. V man that wants to feast his eyes on sawmills, planing and matching mills, turpentine or cnards, and distilleries, Ac., can be fully accommodated by tak'ng day time run from Albany to Jackson ville. In the whole route of 171mil«s he will see more of the things describ ed and less of good farming land, and fewer comfortable dwelling houses than be could see in the same distance any where I know of. Truly, there are a few men settled on the road, and as Bill Arp would say, seem to be comfortable and serene. I must close for today for want of time. Respectfully, S. W. Bloodwortii. P.

Griffin, Ga , Feb. 18 Editor Maws:—On Friday a no gro woman named Mary Tharp, liv ing iu Southeast Griffin, i ear Ison’s branch, while working on her premi sea had her eye put out by a shot fired from a parlor rifle by an un known white buy. Tbo wound is not only exceedingly painful, hut disfigures the woman au»l deprives her of a useful member through life, The same accident might have happened to the best white lady or man iu town. Numerous complaints have been made to me from vinous parties about the shpoting that is eing done in all parts of town, both day nod uight, especially by boys with parlor rifles This is not only dangerous, but contrary to the laws of the State and the ordinau Isos of the city, and it must and shall be stoppod. 1 therefore give /air warniug that any one caught firing off any fire arm if any kind, or known to have fired off any firearm, within the in corporate limits of the city of Grif fin, will bo u trusted and placed iu the guard bouse for trial. litis ap plies to old and young alike, are 8pectivo of persons, nnd moans just what it says ; and I hope it will be heeded. T. G. Manley, Marshal. The above card will receive the hearty commendation of every eiti zen of Griffin, and we hope to see the order vigorously euforoed.

Scott’s Lieutenant Appointed Member of the Campaign Committee, Washington, Feb 18. — fSpecial.J— It will bo i.xembered that at the Democratic caucus held last week to select a now Congressional Commit tec, tho State of Pennsylvania did not make its selection, becauso of tho contest going on between Represen tat.ves Scott and Randall, each con tending against tho other for con troi < f the Slate delegation and Democratic party machinery. The fight has progressed with great vig or, until it has become personal be tweeu the two, until they have quit extending the usual courtesies among gentlemen and refuse to speak to one another. Mr. Scott, however, has triumph over his protection opponent Randall, and to-day was successful in having appointed upon the Con gressional Committee, his first lion tanant and faithful follower, Repre aentaliva Mash, who will bear the Scott banner from this until tho end of the campaign in November. This defeat of Mr. Randall drives another nail in Lis political casket, which but foreUi's the fa?e that awaits him, so long as be occupies his present an tagonist c opposition to tariff reform and the wishes of 'be administra tion. If you ar# afflicted with rlienutatium, tieu ralgia, gout or other bodily pain, or if you havo a sprained wrist or ankle you ought at once to procure a bottle of Salvation Oil, tho greatest cure ou eartti for pain.

By this schedule the \ u of M« Donough and Henry County get on® tram each way a day, and th»t » mixed one. If they want to com® to Griffin they can start at bcif past two in the afternoon of on® day sod get back at one o’clock in th® after noon of tLo next da;. They will find nice I eds and hospitable accost modations w hen our hotels are not too crowded, uod this will b® r®rj convenient for attending the many entertainments at the opera boot® of a uight and getting tb® jog filled next morning: ladiea are requested to bring tbeir knitting. Bat people who come on business will find tb® railroad vary good walking, even to muddy weather, alwaya being car® ful not to wear out the croaatiea and to keep a sharp lookout for the nam erous trains. There is only one objection to tLiis schedule. As tbo people of Henry county can not possibly com® to Griffin two days in sneceaaion tb® way trains now run, wby coaid tb®y not all arrange to com® on tbe same days, and thus save tbe useless cx pense ol running a tram each way every day? One train south one day and north the next day ought to b« sufficient. We submit this to th® man who made up this schedule, and wbo seems to be too mocb influenced by Henry coudIj's liberal snbscription.
