Tlie Marietta Journal comes to
us.l« F a handsome new dress, and is
noyr aa besatiiul at it la, good.
This fat the .time when, the auto
graph fiend writes to Blaine and
Oleedaod) and St. Joboand Butler,
and tells each one that he would
like to add to his election the au
tograph of the next President
The New York World charges
that Ben Butler stole, or managed
to make $8,000,000 while in milita
ry command of New Orleans. Il
Butler could have proved this
charge be might have beaten Blaine
in the Republican Convention..
Everybody is advised to buy
their overcoats without delay.
Weathe*iprpphet De Voe, of Ilack-
L-osaok, N. J., predict* a warm au-
tu'rn, and Says we won’t have any
cold, weather before the end of
November.
The combustible gunny lagging
that now wraps the cotton bale
mustgo. Two Augusta men have
invented a comparatively flre-proof
bagging, ami they have a bigger
thing before them than lining
President, or even Spcsker of the
■louse, witli sll its opportunities
to “oast anchors to tho windward."
The Republicans are sending out
a pamphlet with the title “Lifo of
(irover Cleveland,” the pages of
which sre entirety blank. Il will
ho tho lasting regret of James O.
Blaine that his life has been such
that no while page in history can
ever lie set apart for him. From
early life to the white hairs of ma
ture,years If 1* blotted and blurred
with questionable transactions.
If-the wave of rascality looms
much longer in “the States,” Cana
da will have the richest and most
unblnslishie population ever known
in a civilized country. Every de-
faulting scoundrel in tills country
for two years past—and there have
lieeu lots of them—have betaken
themselves to Canada. The Buck-1
sunns, of the liquor firm uf New
comb, Buchanan A Co., Louisville,
Ky., furnish the last delegation of
emigrants.
The bids for the building of the
new capital opened Thursday go
from $116,006 to $1,000,000. No
doubt the Commissioners will he
able to award the contract in a fow
day*. Whether the bids are really
lower than those first made depend
on how much the plant lor the
creation of the building have been
modified. Georgia doesn't seem
to figure very conspicuously in the
list of proposals.
It is a little singular that the
conteat for and against Mr. Blaine
should be waged upon the other
side of the Atlantic as well as her*,
aud under other flags than the
stare and stripes. It is telegraph
ed from London that the Dublin
Freeman's Journal and other
papers devoted to the Irish cause
are publishing crltiolsms on Mr.
Blaine’s cabinet record, and that,
in consequence, the attitude of the
UBOBeiA HEWN.

A dry whirlwind struck a negro
