The Georgia Legislature aiiem
bled yetjerday.- v
Georgia tends a solid Democratic
delegation to Congress.
Crisp and olcar ring out the
clarion notes of Democratic victory
in this district.
. nl j i i^p » -
Sam Randall, the great Demo
cratic protectionist, has been re-
elected to Congress.
The “Independents" of Webster
have a very strong penchant for
voting the Democratic ticket.
It was a luneral 'Bell that tolled
the defeat of the Republicans in
this congressional district last
Tuesday.
* Ur. Bell told the Hawkinsville
News editor that if be was. n.ot
elected to Congress, he would know
the reason why. If he has not al
ready found out why he was not
elected, we can give him the reason
—a failure to receive a sufficient
number of votes.
The bonds of Georgia which fall
due in 1886 oonsists of $879,100 of
6 per cent, bonds issued by Gov,
Jenkins under authority of the act
of Feb. 87, 1856, for the construe
tion of the Western and Atlantic
Railroad; $3,968,000 7 per cent,
bonds Issued by Gov. Jenkins un-
der the authority of the act of
Marah.iS, 1866, in renewal of old
bonds; $99,000 8 per cent, bonds
issued by Gov. Smith under au
thority of act of Feb. 19, 1873, in
renewal of old bonds. This makes
a tqtsd of'$3,$66,100. Should the
whole of this debt be refunded a*
4 per cent., the annual saving to
the State would be $98,683. The
bonds falling due in 1885 are $91,-
000 of 8 per cent, bonds issued by
Gov. Smith under act of Feb. 19,
1873, in renewal of old bonds, and
$ltf ( 035 of 4 per cent, bonds issued
by Gov. Colquitt under act of Dec.
14, r 1878, to redeem maturing
bonds.

The returns from this Congress'
Tonal district are better than we
feared they would be, and it affords
us pleasure to announce the re-
election of Bon. C. F. Crisp by a
handsome majority—one of which he
may well feel proud, considering
the efforts made by his opponent.
Bis election' shows not only that
the people of the district appreci
ate his faithfulness and ability as
a representative, but also that they
are not yet ready to intrust thoir
interests to a man whose principal
support must of necessity come
from a class a large majority of
whom have no proprietary inter
ests at stake. We are especially
pleased with the result, as at once
emphatically retuting the claims of
the Republicans that they bad a
majority in this district under a
fair and full vote. No one will
deny that a fair vote was conceded
them, and if It was not full It cer
tainly was not their fault, foi
greater efforts to organize and
bring It out were made this year
than there has been tor mrny years.
A Chinese pamphlet recently cir
eulated in Bong Kong against the
Ohristiam mission vo'k affirms
that Europeans do nut belong to
the human race, but are descended
from monkeys. This race of wild
beings worship neither the heavens
nor the earth; they do not honor
their parents nor hive respect for
their forefathers. They come into
China under the pretense of preach
ing a religion, but really come to
take the eyes anJ tbe brains of dy
ing people and the blood of'child-
ren. With these tbev make medi
cal pills, which they sell in their
country, aid In this manner secure
shrewdness.

Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing
manufacturers who had made up numerous stocks from materi
als bought mi 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 them, but it is in your
power to make it good for you, lor, as usual, when good goods
are to he sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe
Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the fact that we
were already prepared with a stock of Seventy-Five Thousand
Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Roys, Chil
drens and Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy
Goods. Corsets, etc., at prices varying from 80 to 60 per cent,
of the actual value. Promptly at 8 o’clock Monday Morning
and itgwill 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.
