When Mr. Blaine first entered the campaign and entertained some hope of car rying one or more Southern States, he was very kind and generous his remarks toward the South and professed to be willing to bury the past; but now that lie is defeated he rushes forward'as be did in Con gress and waves aloft the ensan guined garment of sectional hate, and seeks to fan into flame the dy ing embers of tbe fires of prejudice. It is too late, however, to do him any good or the country any harm, Mr. Blaine, in bis tattooed attire of corruption, makes a sorry show in posing as a patriotic alarmist, and will fail in exciting the fears any considerable number of people Admitting that his charges are true, it is not in good taste foi sneak thief to warn honest people against the assaults of a burglar. charges oftrAUd to mjike, let him prttMntlthem fh the usual gay to A LIM'D!

This que3 tion will come up at some time during the session, and it might as well be met now. Tbe effort to change the contract so as to use Georgia -material is an effort to in crease tbo taxation of the people of Georgia. As was well said by a distinguished member yesterday it is taking money out of the peo- pie’s pockets and putting it in the pockets ot n few individuals. The owners of Georgia material have bad 1 two chances at the capitol con tract, and their best offer is $150 000 higher than tho bid which was accepted. TWK VALUE OP TRADE ISSUES. Yesterday a gentleman of this oity received a letter trom a friend in Now England, asking for statis tical information regarding the in crease of. valuation m property in Georgia, and- also the number of miles of iullroadk in the State. The inquiry was made with a view to investment of capital in the State. Tho lettor was sent around the RecoBdeii office for answer. We pinked up a Recobdkb Trade Issue of last year, found tho in formation wanted, marked it and sent it. It is probable that hours might have been spent in examining various State report^ without being able to And tho same .information While the work of Trade Issues may seem at times slow and nnsat. isfaotory, it is constantly growing and extending and will yet bear fruit. There is a good deal of difference in the way you spell it. Mr. Jllaine waved the bloody shirt, and the waived it.

AMERICUS, - - - GEORGIA. CONVULSES NEW YORK fm CITY BALL CENTRAL PARK. OLD ESTABLISHED MERCANTILE HOUSEB, WHOSE SOLVENCY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOUNDED ON INDESTRUCTABLE ROCKS OF UNLIMITED CAPATAL AND UNQUESTIONABLE CREDIT, Tottered and Fell in a Day! 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, 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, for, as usual, when 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 Boys, Chil drens and^Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from- 30 to 60 per cent, of the actual value. Promptly at 8 o’clock Monday Morning These Purchases will be Put on Sale and itQwill 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 ot the dry goods, clothing, boot and shoe trade.
