Hiddlebergcr] lias been* elected United States Senator from Vir ginia to take the place of Senator Johnson whose term expires March 4th, 1883. The Democrats voted fur Mr. Johnson, but it was mere ly a matter of form to keep the or ganization solid. It is expected that the Hession 0 f Congress will be a very long one, not so much on account of the amount of important business on band as on account of the evident intention oi partisans to rake up issues and prolong discussions for the purpose of making political capital.

Hinton, oi Americus, will probably be a candidate for Governor. He lived in this county many years, and has many friends hero whowill support him very zeal ously. If hu makes the race, there is little doubt but that Marion will support him. The New Vork Herald suggests that Guitenu could make a point in favor of his claim of inspiration by citing the treatment of the Mormons. It says the Mnnions defend polygamy by the plea tlmt that it is sanctioned by inspiration, and that the government practi cally admits the plea by not cn- lorcing its law against the Mormon institution.

We Imvc men of capital and energy, and it only remains lor those men to us • tlmt capital and energy in such a direction as will cot only build tip our city but gain for them an abundant harvest. A cotton seed oil mill would prove a profitable investment and add to our popula tion and wealth. There is no bel ter point iii’Gcorgia for such a mid, for wc have at our doors all the seed that can lie used, and all the fertilizing properties of the seed in the shape of meal could he retained at home, instead of being shipped away as now, while the profit of the oil could lie saved to us. A cotton factory would prove a big tiling for onv city and for those who have the energy to creel sueli an institution. The larges', cotton market in Southwest Geor gia, there is no reason why it should not reap the profits of its manufacture,ami tliauhvie is prnlli is shown by the dividends declared I by found command ol the Confederates at the time Gen. Butler dropped down on New Orleans and that section, and the hold Benjamin took in the $35,000 worth of swords, sending them here as trophies of war. They are very handsome, the han dles studded with diamonds, and the blades of tho finest steel. Here they have remained ever since, until now a descendant of Gen. Twiggs is making an effort to cause them to lie turned over lignin to the family. To accomplish this a bill must lie gotten through con gress, and to do this that same Ben Butler, who captured the swords, is non- helping, heart and hand. Odd, isn’t it?
