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 Fallier lliibbnnl Coal. Buffalo Kxprefl*. 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 ooat, mein frent,” replied the deal er, "ish a very stylish garment. Look at dot back. Mein gracious, it ish lufly. See dot pcaiitiful puffing—dor latest style-and don’t you forgot it. It vas made in Filth avenoo. It is der Faddcr Hubbard style, and is actually worth so much as fffe toller more for dot cut,” a ml five minutes later the delighted customer left the store with bis Father Hubbard coat.

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. In larger than ever before, at prices we defy competition. IN BOOTS AND SHOES!

CONVULSES NEW YORK CITY HALL Ip CENTRAL PARK. OLD ESTABLISHED MERCANTILE HOUSES, WHOSE SOLVENCY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOUNDED ON INDE8TRUCTABLE ROCKS OF 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 1 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.
