For Represents!in Forty-ninth Congress:
From Third Congressionnl District
of Goorgis :
CHARLES F. OUISP,
of Homier.
According to the' recent statin-
tics, there ban been a great increase
in the consumption of liquor in the
United States, and one (nr out
stripping the growth of population.
In 1810 the number of gallons of
liquor consumed was 71,000,000,
and bow the number bas gone np
since is shown in the following
figures: 1850, 91,000,000 gsllnns;
I860. 202,000.000; 1870. 293,000,-
000; 1880, 500,000,000; 1883, 055,-
009.000. That is, while the popu
lation has trebled during the last
forty yean, the consumption of
liquor has increased by almost
i len-lold, and the amount of money
, expended in its purchase shows a
| still greater proportional increase.
The annual expenditure for liquor
! in the United Stalea now exceeds
; $goo,ooo.ooo
j The New Orleans Tunes Demo-
jurat says: “Fellow citizens and
| fellow voters of the North, do not
gel unduly excited about the mat-
ter of armed Federal interference
with your elections. What tbey
will entertain you with an Novem
ber lilt will he but a pleasant holi
day compared to what the South
suffered fur eiglit long years* You
must not roar ho loudly at the
prick of a pin, when your country
men in the South so long and so
palicntly endured the constant
prod of bayonets.”
Fortune nlnyH some men strange
tricks. On Wednesday Charles
Bertram was arraigned before a
New York magistrate on the charge
of forgery. Not long ago this man
was a ricli banker of Prussia, and
was well known in the financial
circles of Berlin. In these days
of speculation the rond from palace
to prison is short.

DUTY OF DEMOCRATS.
Tbs near approach of the Na
tlonal election ahould aronse Demo,
crata to the importance of taking
such measures as wilt insure s full
vote. Tbo casting of a ballot is
not only tbo highest privilege of a
oitixen, but it is his highest duty—
a duty he owes to Ills government,
which protects him in his rights,
and a duty he owes to his leilow-
citizens in siding them to select
faithful and efficient officers.
Because Georgia is reasonable
sure to cast its electoral vote for
the Democratic candidates is no
reason why Georgia Democrata
should not every one go to the polls
snd deposit their ballots for the
candidates of their choice. It
should be remembered that it was
by thus unitedly casting their bal
lots tliut Georgia was redeemed
from Radical misrule, and in that
way only can the power thus
wrested from onr political enemies
be preserved. It is a duty that
Georgia Democrats owe to their
brethren in other portions of the
Union to poll as full a vote as pos
sible and thus cncourago and sus.
tain the Democratic brcthicn in
State* who are struggling so nobly,
under adverse eircumstancea, to
secure the triumph of Democratic
principles.
There is yet s m ore forcible rea
son why the Democrats of this
congressional district should all
turn out next Tuesday, and that is
that there is a contest as to wheth
er n Democrat or a Republican
shall be sent to Congress to repre
sent this district. No one believes
that* Republican would properly
represent the opinions and intci-
csla of the people of this district,
beesuse he must be elected by the
votes of that class who havo but
little interest in the prosperity of
tko country—a class which lias
little pro|>crty at slake, and hut a
poor idea of what constitutes good
government. If the meu who have
most at slake, who desire to sec
the wealth, enterprise and intelli
gence of the district properly rep
resented, do not take the proper
means to secure that representa
tion by attending the polls next
Tuesday, they can have no one but
themselves to blsme. It is idle to
talk that there is no danger, when
there is a candidate in the livid
who is hacked by the money and
influence of the Republicans of
Washington City, and who is using
every means to secure Ids election.
There is but one safe course for
Democrats to pursue, and that is, j ifl

Specially was this true of many large and celebrated nothing
manufacturers who had mede up numerous stocks from materi
als bought ou credit. These manufacturers placed their faith
on lively and profitable September trade, absolutely relying on
it for funds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given
for piece goods, but the trade did not come, the continuous
warm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there
was nothing left for them to do but to fail and turn their goods
over to an Assignee. It was bad for th» m, but it is in your
power to make it good for you, for, ns usual, when good goods
are to he sacrificed we nro always on hand. Our Mr. Joe
Wnxellmum was there,* and notwithstanding the fact that we
were already prepared with a stork of Seventy-Five Thousand
