GEORGIA’S PROPERTY In the ( ty <f Chattanooga Eagerly bought For. Tho state of Georgia owns some valuable real estate connected with tbe Woatern and Atlantic railroad in Chattanooga. Last fall a couimiteee of the legis laturo appointed to investigate this property, reported that tbe state owned in Cba“ - '! >ga $1,400,000 worth of real t to excess of the ground needed for tbe terminal facili ties of the Western and Atlantic rail road. The commission appointed by the governor, under an act of the last leg islatnre, to examine aud make an in ventory of :"the property of the Western an lantic railroad, has employed Mi. It. Reneau to sur vey Ihe state’s property in Chatta nooga, and be is now engaged iu that work- The value of tbe state's property is shown by the anxiety of a certain Chattanooga lawyer to buy it, and failing in that, to lease it for a term of thirty years and pay the rent in improvments. This lawyer came to Atlanta dur iog the last session of tbe legislature and in an interview with Governor Gordon proposed to buy from the state its Chattanooga real estate, He tried to impress upon the govern or the idea that there was a cloud on the state’s title. That matter was mentioned in the Journal at the time and the Chattanooga attorney’s talk about tho state's title wus shown to be rot. The governor informed the gentleman from Chattanooga that no officer of the state had any power to sell tbe property. Within the last few days the same individual has written to Goveron Gordon proposing to lease the prop erty for a term of thirty years, and to pay the rent in improvements which he proposed to erect upon the land. The governor, through his secrets ry, Judge J. T, Nisbet, informed the gentlemen that no officer of the state had power to lease the property in question, and that even if he had, he did not tbiok it wise for the state of Georgia to owu improved real estate in another state and lease it, especial ly as a handsome cash price could be bad for (be property. How often is the light af the house hokt clouded by signs of melancholy or irritably on tho part of the ladies. Yet they are not to be blamed, for they are the result of ailments peculiar to that sex. which men know not of. But the may be removed and joy restored by the use of Dr. Pierce,s "Favorite Prescrip tion,” which, as a tonic and nrrvine for debilitated women, is certain, safe and pleasant. It is beyond all compare the great healer of women. Strong Endorsement. We find tbo following printed in the Covington Enterprise: Griffis. Ga-, April 17. 1888.

Any one wbo has given thought fat attention to the subject must, it seeois to us, have been impressed with the uselessness of the ocean, and our readers therefore will agree with us that the time has come when •t should be filled in to common grade. why There are many good reasons this should be done. In the first place, inasmuch as the submerged surface of the globe occupies two thirds the entire superficial area, the amount of land reclaimed would be enormous, and as tbe sentiment seems to be growing that fcll taxes should be laid upon real estate, it follows that the more real estate there is to lay taxes upon the greater the revenue accruing from that source, aud by couseqnenee munici palities which now have great diffi cut in making both ends meet would no longer be obstructed in their appropriations for such internal improvements as wine dinners for the city fathers, and, incidentally, for the improvement and establish ment of the city; though, to be sure, the larger the number of street wid ening and street openings for the ao commodation of the several varieties of pipes of the various corporate bod les for whose use and emolument cities are called into being. Hut let that pass. If the sea were filled there would be no more seasick ness, which is a great point and should not be lost sight of for a mo ment, and there would be no more drowmtigs, save and exoept an occa sional drowning of one’s sorrow in the flowing bowl, and then there would forever be an end to those interminable fishery fusses, which have strained the otherwise friendly relations between the United States and Her Majesty’s maritime provin ces North America. Possibly the amateur fisherman might become a truth teller. This, however, is al most too much to hope for. It might be urged that the filling of the ocean would rain our shore re sorts, but this is an objection which is of little moment. It is quite possi ble that the resorters could find oth er places Jn which to swallow vinous and cereal liquids and to take on their annual coating of tan, and it is probable that cooking quite as ajro cious could be obtained without the marine propinquity which now ren ders the abuormal cullinary interest so fashionable. But, say some one: there could be no shipping without water for ships to sail in. A foolish objection, truly, when it is remembered that the Unit ed States has no shipping at the pres ent time. The filling in of the sea would not effect us; let others look out for themselves- And it so happen* that tbe officers of our gallant navy are already thoroughly injured to land service: so that it would be no hardship to them to continue to serve on shore; while, on tbe other hand, the grand navies of foreign nations would be rendered useless, and there would be no further fear of our great seaports beiDg laid unper tribute by tbe seagoing kings of the eartb, and consequently, no need of disfiguring our environment with hideous for’ifications.
