Amerigus Recorder. THE HOVEltSOK’.S MESSAGE* The message of Gov. McDalHel to the General Assembly is a lengthy doonment, too lengthy for our columns, and we therefore give the following synopsis of it from the Savannah News: The Governor shows that he is thoroughly acquainted, not only with the financial condition and demands of the State, bat with its every interest, and be has present ed them in a manner so thorough and simple that the most illiterate ought to be abio to understand them. In regard to the payment of the bonded indebtedness of the State due in 18S6, the Governor recom mends the refunding thcreol in bonds to run not less than 30 years at not over 6 per cent, interest. The reason for this is that long term bonds are eagerly sought after by Investors at low rates of interest. The message calls especial at tention to the necessity of provid ing for tho proper valuation of property for taxation, and ex plains the causes ol the deficit which appears in the estimates of the Treasurer’s receipts and ex penditures for 1885. In reference to the Railroad Commission, it recommends the passage of a law authorizing ap peals from its decisions to the courts of the State. Tbo action of the Capitol Com missioners in adopting oolitic limestone for facing the exterior walls of the new capitol is ex plained, and, in the Governor's opinion, should bo satisfactory to every disinterested and reasonable citizen of the Stale. It earnestly recommends the es tablishing of a house of correction fertile reception of youthful felons —of whom quite a number are now serving in the penitentiary camps —as suggested by Capt. Nelms, the ctUcicnt Principal Keeper of tho Penitentiary—and appended to the message tho Governor pre sents a list of reprieves and par dons granted by him, and gives tho reason for clemency in each case as provided by law. Tho State Agricultural Depart ment is commended and the pro priety of establishing an experi mental farm urged on the attention of the General Assembly, and tho information given that the farm of tho University of Georgia has been tendered to the State for that purpose. The steady growth of our public school system is stated, nml the increased prosperity ol the uni versity under tho new order of tilings adopted in 1881 is com mented on. It is recommended to enlarge the scope of the school of agriculture and mechanic arts in the university so as to make it really a school of technology. This is an important matter, and doubtless one that will receive much attention by the General Assembly. The message calls attention to the necessity for rigid inspection and regulation of saving institu tions and banks of deposit, and for tho preservation and protec tion of trust funds. Attention is called to the neces sity of a well-equipped and regula ted militia, and the movement to increase the efficiency of our vol unteer militia will doubtless com mand tho attention of the General Assembly. The necessity for amending the constitution is urged on tbe Gen eral Assembly, but the Governor does not favor tho general revis ion ol that instrument by a State convention. There is little doubt that tbe suggestions contained in the mes sage will serve as valuable guides to the General Assembly in determ ining what course to pu-suc on many questions that will come up before it. The Governor has been in the service cf the State for many years, and is familiar, not only with the outlines, but the dotaila of everjf dcpartmsnt of tbs goruaaiat. Ooe of tho gratifying results of Taesday's contest is the triumph ant re-election of Bon. Wm. R. Morrison, of Illinois, tbe author of the tariff reduction bill. Garfield had a majority of G5 in his dis trict In 1880, and Morrison’s ma jority In tho district two years ago was 277.- Now his majority is not less than 1,200, and probably - 1,500. The St. Louis Republiasn : Tfl GlY8 TOO 11 M Cf WM H?S B88D says: “And if toe world needed a voice of the people to tell in what honor the horizontal reduction bill HEQCOTETIIE FOLLOWING TRICES was heid, with what a clarion voice has it come from the Eigh teenth Illinois district..

IVillia m It. Moirison is re-clected. Not; tion in tbe bock ground, the lowering clouds, nor the driz- , zling rain, nor the almost impas sible roads could keep the people back from tbe polls. In almost every voting place Morrison cap tured a majority and gained ma terially upon his votes in former years.” The next elections which will in terest the people of Georgia will be those by tho General Assembly for Senator, Judges and Solicitor General.

The reports from all the Con gressional elections in the Union do not show very decided Republi can gains in the House of Kepre* uentatives. Their gains in the North will probably be almost offset by Democratic gains in the South. The next House will un- j doubtedly have a good working \ Democratic majority. We regret to learn that the Southern Dramatic Company, which Imd proposed to givo enter tainments in the several cities for the benefit of a Confederate Sol diers’ Home, has been compelled to abandon that undertaking, on account of the insufficient support received. With the custom houses and post offices out of the bauds of the Re publicans, a good many States now put in the doubtful list wouid be easily and safely Democratic.

Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing manufacturers who had made 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, hut 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 had for them, but it is in your power to make it good lor you, for, as usual, wlfen good goods are to be 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 Hoys, Chil drens and,Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from 30 to 60 per c of the actual value.
