Who Are They I
The Atlantacorres|ion<lentof the
Savannah New* has indited the
following rather sensational squib,
which has somewhat excited this
section with curiosity to know who
the gentlemen alluded to are:
“Humor says a gifted young poli
tician of Savannah, another of
Ainericus, and still another of At
lanta, nil with earliest longings for
Congressional honors, are to join
Hon. A. H. Cox in the Liberal
movement. Without the Radical
element soconspicous, cither of the
gentlemen hinted ut might run well
with Democrats, bill the present
outlook is not a promising one for
their aspirations.”
Mr, Hollin Wellborn, a well-
known youth of this city who is
now working nt the brick mason
trade with Mr. John Kelioe at Fort
Haines, met witli a very bad acci
dent on Inst Friday at Unit pnim.
He was standing under u seniroiil
upon wliieli a colored carpenter was
nt work with a Imichct, when the
hatchet alip|>cd from the negro's
hand, mid in its descent passed
within a half inch of M r. Wellborn's
face, and being very sharp, the
blade cut Ills nose us clear oil'
ns if it had lieen done with n kuilc,
and, ol course, indicting mi injury
that will disfigure him lor life.
— Kufaula HuUe.tin.
(filed that such consent was essen
tial.
The following citizens were ap
pointed to fill vacancies in the
Hoard of Trustees in the Districts
of the county, to-wit:
Hen. W. Council, 27tli; John
Sims, 15th; A. Dodson, Old 20th;
J. II. Wigging, Thos. Simpson,
Old llitli; W. H. Davis, 17th.
On motion it was resolved that
the Public Schools of the county
be allowed to run throughout the
entire year, but the Hoard will
only pay for the drat ninety lists'
attendance ol any pupil.
Teachers must obtain the con
sent of tile Trustees of their Dis
trict ninl contract with the Coun
ty School Commissioner before
their schools can lie considered ns
Public Schools.
On motion the Hoard adjourned
to the next regular meeting, unless
sooner called together by the
President or County Sellout Com
missioner.

It Is stated that the Cnitetl States
Supreme Court is so crowded with
work that it is far heliiml In its
calandcr. mid its business is accu
mulating so rapidly that impor
tant questions are delayed lor
months mid even years, to the
great loss of litigants mid to the
serious peril of large interests in
various purls of the country. Sev
eral schemes looking to remedy
this evil have been pro|ioseil, mid
some of tbem likely to la* present
ed to Congress in the form of bills.
Tbe best scheme would la* to give
the judges to understand they arc
ap|iointeil anil |iaiil to work, and
not merely to look wise.
Mr. Henry Wattersoii, who is
an intimate personal mid |n>litical
friend of Hon. Samuel J. Tilden,
states through the Louisville Coiir.
ierJournai that Mr Tilileg has no
Idea of being the next President
of the United States; that his coun
sels and his purse are open lo his
party, but that “bis person he has
reserved to his declining years,
which be proposes to enjoy with
his friends, his liooks and his pic
tures, of which lie is fond."
The Washington Slur thinks it
is a duty that Congress owes to
the people of the country to pass,
at the present session, a law to
regulate the counting of electoral
votes. It says; “Two presiden
tial elections have lieen held with
out any defined method of counting
the votes, because partisanship was
more potential in Congress than
patriotism. Until parties are re
sponsible for this neglect in the
past, but both ik w have an oppor
tunity to repair their delinquency
by the enuitmeiit of a lair, just
and comprehensive law, prescrib
ing how each step in the count
of the electoral Notes dull be j
taken.”
Tbe Chicago Timer says that,
the Clnhaii bite is worse than the
I'eriivinu bark. One idea of it is
that, although IVruviaii hark is'
good for ague ill individual enses,
it lias no elleet upon a Chili gov
ernment.
