MVIT1NO IMMIGRANTS.
Tbb Cnrollnns arc already reap
ing the benefit o( their liberal ad
vertising. They have invited im
migration and they are getting it.
French nnd German and Scotch
settlements arc being located in
several places^ and in new life will
coon be infused into those old
States. Georgia has done nothing
in this way. Excepting the Swiss
colony on the Air-Lino road,
whlob was the result of private
enterprise aided at the time by the
energetic mnnagers of that road,
there is no colony in the great
Empire State, a State which is
unsurpassed for colonization 'pur
poses by any State in the Union
and equaled by a few only. This
should not be. With far less in
ducements to colonies than Geor
gia can offer, the Carolinas have
far surpassed us by the concentra
ted public spirit of tho people, the
wise and complete system adopted
to bring out the resources and ad
vantages of that territory aud the
efficient and practical aid given
to this work by tho State govern
ment. Georgia should learn to do
likewise.
Col. A. K. McClure’s paper, the
Philadelphia Times, say ts "There
is a constant campaign cry against
the 'Solid South’ in every impor
tant eonleel;.but those who clamor
for a divided South studiously con
ceal the fact that every property,
industrial, educational and pro
gressive Intercut of the Southern
States demands Democratic admin
istration. Republican rule in the
South left one vast sea of debt and
desolation, and Republican capital
ists would to-day withdraw their
investments if they apprehended a
restoration of the only Republican
authority that the South could
furniib. North Carolina is one ot
the most conservative of the South
ern States, a State not naturally
Democratic, a State that would
give a majority for any better par
ty than the Democratic party, but
it is held in the Democratic col
umn solely because to roturn to
Republican government would he
to return to the blight of reckless
carpetbag and ignorant and de
bauched negro rule.”
The Chicago Times presents an
interesting conundrum. It is this:
If wheat drops eight cents alter a
Republican victory in one State,
where would it drop to if lllaine
should be elected? This conun
drum interests farmers.

The coat was a very bad 111—too
full in the back. “That'll never
do,” said the customer; "it's like
a shirt ou a bean-pole.” “Dot

Look at dot back. Mein gracious,

The accounts of the post office
department have been made up to
the 30th of Juno last, and show a
net deficiency of $3,193,137, which
it attributed to the reduction ol
postage. While this ia a plausible
explanation, there is no doubt that
this deficiency could be made up
and a saving made sufficient to
admit of still further reduotion if
the affairs of the department were
properly administered. While
some branches of the eervioe arc
thoroughly organized and carefully
supervised, thero is lu the depart
ment at Washington, in some of
the larger offices and in nearly all
the smaller cues, a great deal of
inefficiency, want ol system, lazi
ness, extravsgauce, and polities,
especially politics.
R. S. Munger, of Mexia, Texas,
wants to get up s convention ot
cotton ginnets ol tho South st
New Orleans during the Exposi
tion. He wants to exchaugu ideas
and discuss ginuing interests. In
pursuance of his plan he asks those
interested in the matter to write
to him and inform him relative to
tbs best lime to hold the conven
tion. If Mr. Manger can think of
eome way to prevent the destruc.
lion of so large per cent, of cotton
gins by fire be will do cotton plan-
tors a great service.
The Chicago Herald calls for
shorter political campaigns. The
suggestion is entirely in order.
Two months are loug enough for
the agitation and uproar of a Pres
idential canvass. Let the prelimi
nary 8tate elections bo abolished
and the candidates be nominated
about the first of September.

UNLIMITEDCAPATALAND UNQUESTIONABLE CREDIT,
Tottered and Fell in a Day!
Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing
manufacturers who had mede up numerous stocks from materi
als bought on 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 dp but to fail and turn their goods
over to an Assignee. It was bad for them, but it is in your
power to make it good for you, for, as usual, when good goods
are to be sacrificed wc are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe
Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the fact that wc
were already prepared with a stock of Seventy-Five Thousand
Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Boys, Chil
drens and^Men’s Clothing, Diy Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy
Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from SO to 60 per cent,
of the actual value. Promptly at 8 o’clock Monday Morning

and itfiwill be to the interest of every one in this city or country
to be on hand, for at the prices we propose selling these goods
you were never offered them in the history of the dry goods,
clothing, boot and shoe trade.
