J(|e Rrlffin Daily News. Griffin U the liveliest, pluokiest, most pro grewive town in Georgia. This is no liy per Olkai descri tion, as the record of the last (Ire years will show. During that time it has built and put into most successful operation a 1100,000 cotton faotory anil is now building another with nearly twice the capital. It has put up a targe iron and brass foundry, a fertilizer fac- ory, an immense ice and battling works* a sash and bund faotory, a broom factory opened up the finest granite quarry in the United State-, and has many other enter¬ prises in outemplatiou. It has secured another ail road uinety miles long, and while ooatcu on the greatest system in the South, the Central, has secured connection with its important rival, the Kast Tennessee, Virginia aud Georgia. It has just secured direct inde- pendent connection with Chattanooga and the Wist, and has the President of a fourth railroad residing here and working to its ultimate completion. With Its five white and three oolored churches, it is now building a $10,000 new Pre«byterian chnroh. It has Increased its population by nearly one fifth. It has at¬ tracted around Its borders fruit growers from nearly every State in the Union, until it is now snrrouuded on nearly every side by or¬ chards and vineyard. It is the home of the grape and its wine making capacity has doubled every year. It has successfully inaugurated a system of public schools, with u seven years curriculum, second to none. This is part of the reoord of a half decade and simply shows the progress of an already admirable city, with the natural advantages of having the finest climate, summer and winter, in the world. Griffin is the county seat of Spalding county, situated in west Middle Georgia, with a healthy, fertile and rolling oountry, 1150 feet above sea level. By the census of 1890, it will have at a low qstiiuate between 6,000 and 7,u00 people, and they are all of the right sort—wide-awake, up to the times, ready to welcome strangers and anxious to secure de siruble settlers, who will not be any less wel oome if they bring money to help build up the town.

An Extra Mu**ion may l>e Called Next May 8o That the K« publican* may Per- fe<^ Their Organization—liar- rinou may Prevent It. Washington City, Dec. 12.—There seems to be no longer any doubt that the republicans have elected a majority of the next house. The democrats, who have been claiming that their party would organize that body, have all given up, as the fifteenth New York district has elected a republican member, and there is not another district in the land the democrats may hope to pick up through irregularities to give them a majority of even one. A careful inspec¬ tion of the returns of two or three dis¬ tricts in the northern districts has been going doubtedly on, but the republicans are un¬ elected in all of them and the democrats are forced to admit that their only Is hope of organizing the next house in the event of the death of a republi¬ can and the election of a democrat to take his place. Of course no one hopes that any suefi misfortune may come upon a republican, the house, as bad as the demo¬ crats want and when it comes to dying, a democrat is as likely to die as any one else. The republicans are claiming a major¬ ity of five in the next house. They can¬ not substantiate it on the returns that have been received hare. To do it they put down on their side of the division two members from West Virginia. They may secure one member from West Vir¬ ginia. but even that is doubtful. The contest in two of the Virginia districts has yet to be settled in the courts, and the indications are that the democrats will get both and thus have a solid dele¬ gation from the state. They also claim the Chattanooga district of Tennessee. The certificate bus already lieen given to Bates in that district and he will thke his seat in the house when the next con¬ gress meets. The republicans will prob¬ ably only have one majority when thoy organize.

The Lillie Republlr Mu»I Hop up on Her Muat-le if site Intend* to Maintain Hoi- llttt-t-—OrgHni/utlon of tlte Army am! Navy* Washington. Dec. 12. — [Special. ]— General Legitime’s circular is lteing read with interest by diplomats here General i egitinie recently sent it to the powers as a [ilea for his party and cause, ami in it the "Black Nupoieon’ outlines his scheme for reorganizing the Haytieu laud and sea armies. After indulging in a few preliminary platitudes he says: Hayti, ou account of her exceptional political conditions and also as an insular nation, should have an army and a navi. It is Often said, with¬ out trying to find the reason for it, that the United States have no perma¬ nent army. The United States, a great nation, have no immediate and powerful neighixirn: therefore they have no fear of military surprises or of any violation of territory'. This is not the case with the neutral states ot Europe any more than it is witli Hayti, though the latter i* sur- ounded by a belt of water. Hayti’s natural neutrality iu international con¬ flicts is not a sufficient guarantee for the people* interested if the country itself does not become a power able to inspire respect by- her military organization. Consequently our armies of land and sea require reform in accordance with their mission, so that tiie soldier should in fu¬ ture have a higher consciousness of his duty and that beneath tho uniform the citizen should feel himself honored. The army, regularly constituted, is a brilliant career open to our eouragoous youth, and the nation, henceforth solidi¬ fied, can at any hour count ujion an 6f- feetive force to maintain order and im¬ pose respect. what the As to affects navy, we can add that the country cannot, to place it¬ self in communication with the outside world, always be forced to have recourse to foreign shins. Hay ti iu many tilings should she depend should upon herself, serious and begin¬ in all things have a ning. The way to advance does not consist wait in impossibly crossing thing from one s fut arms and to for every a ure already too much compromised by the liUlolwi»L*J \JU 1 a»ttttrr» quo. The following, from a naval stand¬ point, are the principal attention: points The Which at first demand our survey and policing of our coasts, a rational system of defense, the exploration of the gulf, the organization of our mercan¬ tile navy and the study of the nautical art.

To must be vigorously and scientifically order conducted without faltering. estimate In that to produce this effect wc we should actually limit ourselves to the following disposition*: The organization of the Hay tien army- can lie modified so that each regiment, with it* numerical order, should in fu¬ ture form a corps of five companies of one hundred men. These corps will al¬ ternately and in proper order do garri¬ son service, the number necessary for that service being four thousand men, provided for and equipped upon the model of European armies. This effect¬ ive force canno: be exceodod without the existence of trouble in the country ne¬ cessitates it; then the supplementary force will be the object of a decree from the chief of state. The corps not in garrison will furnish the outpost service as a new regulation will have soldiers provided. doing garrison duty will The not only apply themselves to military- letters exercises, but 1xi instructed in and topography in the intervals between exercise. The garrison, which will be divided among four or five different re¬ gions. will constitute itself (as much as is possible in a special organization) that by work into workshop and school, so and education the soldier can accumu¬ late money and -till further develop his intelligence. of this reorganization the In view budget for the land army can approxi¬ mately bo calculated as follows: Four thousand men at the rate of 200,- 000 piastres annually for each 1,000 men, or an average of 200 ppatr. s for each man for armament, clothing, boots and food. Officers and staff, staff preliminary college, twenty stud- clerks who have made dies to do the duty required of them. Parades are abolished.
