SUBSCRIPTION : .IKKRY ON THE THIRD PARTY. The following is taken from a Wash* — | ington special to the Louisville Courier 1S79. | Journal: There is considerable specu- j lation here regarding the alliance con- ___ I vention to be held at Cincinnati. Jerry | Simpson, the alliance congressman-elect fc.oo ; from Kansas has returned to the city. 50 , He says that the third party must be ‘•J grown, not made; that they are now | planting, and do not want to harvest too | soon. He does not think that there will j be a third party started at the Cincinnati j convention, but thinks that the national j convention, which meets at Washington in February, will adopt a platform and Germany has appropriated J230.000 inaugurate a great tliir.l party move- for an exhibit at the Chicago World's ment. j a l r j The Cincinnati convention will be im portant, however, and an interesting Daily, Oxb Year, Daily, Oxb Month, Weekly, oxe Year, - - 1 Weekly, Six Month*.

The Republicans who hoped to seethe Democrats divide on the silver question are very much disappointed, and are disgusted by the fact that it is growing more evident every day that the Demo cratic party is a unit in favor of tariff j reform, and that it is the issue which '313 LcHTlcir St« they will bring to the front In 18D2 In ] advance of every other question and that it will be the battle cry of the cam paign. There is now comparatively very little being said about the free coinage of silver, while discussion of the tariff question is growing daily more general and more interesting. The people are being educated up to see the enormities of the present tariff system, a condition resulting largely from the object lessons in higher prices .and lower wages result ing from the McKinley bill The tariff Is the vital issue of the next campaign, and unless our taxes are re duced it will be a matter of little import to the public whether the money of the country is silver, gold or paper, as the 'ublication, a newspaper as-1 government will get it all in the way of of which Mr. Macune is the taxes and leave the people without mon- ! ey of any sort.

The National Press, Dublin,announces that slnoe his arrival In Ireland, after being appointed commander-!n-chief of the military force* of that oountry, Lord Wolieley has become a home ruler, and says he does not see any danger, from a military point of view, In granting home rule to Ireland. Tna Brunswick Times regrets to no- tice the vicious attack of the Atlanta Constitution upon Hon. Chas. F. Crisp in the shape of a picture of that gentle man In Wednesday’s paper. The Times thinks that if be can survive the effects of so ferocious an attack upon his per sonal appearance, his chances are good. -Ia reply to a request from the Dallas county, Ala., Alliance for his views on the sub-treasury, Senator Pugh has de clared himself against that measure, and In a three column articlo states bis rea sons for opposing it. This is the first time the senator has ever been called upon to eipresa himself in regard to tiie sub-treasury scheme. Tna college boys of Athens and Ox ford have the base ball fever badly, and to-morrow a match game ia to be played at Oxford between the clubs of the two oalieges. Special trains wilt run from Athens to carry the University student* and Ihel.' friends. Athens has of late defeated Emory in these contests, but Emory Is confident of success this tlmo. Tiie great bulk of southern alliance- men are true democrat* and have shown no disposition to bolt tiie party, but it can baldly be expected that they will continue such if tb* democratic party, through fear of offending the gold hug . money lenders of the east, should fail to declare itself Id favor of the free coinage of silver as a measure of financial relief to the country. Tna New York Herald continues to insist that at least one-third of the enor mous amount paid out by the govern ment for pensions is paid on fraudulent claims. The democratic house will havo a fine opportunity to prove whether this be true or not. If true, tbe frauds .should be dropped from the tolls and the money saved. There can be no two opinions about that. Ix THE Tribuae-oI-Itomo ul Wednes day appear tiie announcements of tiie re tirement of Mr. C. L. Frost, business manager, and Mr. A, I. Branham as edi tor of that paper. It is said that Mr. Branham will go to the Chattanooga Times at an early date. Georgia will part with him regretfully, as lie is one of the most brilliant editorial writers ill tiie South since the death of Albert Lamar and Henry Grady. married room to see one of the senators. Tiie door was guarded by a negro who would notallow Mr. Dougherty admittance. Tbe latter commenced to abuse the ne gro, and Senator Hawley, who happened to be near, triod to pacify him, but be turned bis wrath upon the senator and abused him roundly. Senator Call over heard tiie remarks of Mr. Dougherty and came to the rescue of Senator Haw ley. This made Dougherty worse and be has nursed his grievance against Senator Call evor since. He Is now speaker of the house in the Florida leg islature and is leading tiie fight against Csli. It is said that the Ignoble Noble is to retire from the president's cabinet at an early date, bee ause the presdent and ids subalterns in his department can get along together. This is not surprising, for the disposition manifested by Noble to meddle with affairs wholly without concern to him was fully shown when he undertook to force Ge orgia to accept bis arbitrary division of the public school fund between the blscks and whites of Georgia in a ratio fixed by himself. When an official so far trrns cends his powers and prerogatives It in dicates a degree of officiousness that would prevent him from getting along with anybody except on his own terms. Let old Noble go, is the ardent voice of all decent imople. » Ox next Tuesday the citizons of Rhode island will vote upon the question of new constitution. Tbe present consti tution which has been in existence since 1831, provides that a constitutional con vention cannot be called unless there shall be cast for it a majority of all tbe votes of tbe state. The question was submitted to the people in 1887, and re ceived 14,431 in favor of a convention, while only 308 votes were cast against it. It required IS,040 votes to bold the convention, and tbe leaders hope to arouse the people to the necessity of chsnge in tlio old constitution to get the requisite majority next Tuesday. LiKirrKXAST Governor Jones, of New York, who pays tlio freight, has a mus tache that rivals ;that of King Humbert of Italy in length, breadth and thick ness, and other proportions. All of which leads tbe Albainy (N. Y.,) Times to discourse as follows: General Jones Is plotnresqae. If not posi tive! * handsome.

Gardner, both of that city. The bride is the grand niece of Mrs. President James K. Polk. The venerable lady, despite the weight of 88 years, graced the event with her presence and bestowed her benediction. The nuptials were the most brilliant that have occurred iu Nashville in a quarter of a century. Many guests -from fc&Jtauee were present. A PjtoviDEXca, K. L, man drowned - himself in a river the other day rather than serve on the jory. He was drawn - in the regular panel, and when called presented a physician's certificate that he was unable do Jury duty, bat was not excused. He left the court room saying that bo would not return and that was tbe last seen of him alive. His body recovered a few days later. By a vote of forty-four to thirty the Now York presbytory decided to try Dr. Briggs for heresy contained in his in augural address, and a committee was appointed to prefer charges isgqlut him. That action is likely to provo of momen tous consequences to Presbyterianism in America. It Is |:he beginning of a contest which, if waged to the ond wttu the zeal and determination that have characterized its opening, can only re sult in cither a revision of tiie establish ed creed ora splitting of the church. Sechetakv lit. vine is ill New York, at the home of his son-in-law, Mr. Wal ter Damrosch, sick, and President Har rison is still running over tiie west.. Thus the government is deprived of the two leading powers in Its administra tion, but rocks along as sorenely as if both were at their pests. Mr. lltaine's sickness is not at all serious, hut lie will not bo able to return to Washington for several days yet. not believo that the party could win with Cleveland as the loader. And his reasons for tlieso views are good. He says that by adopting free coinage the democrats will lose the eastern states, and thinks that the wiser policy would bo to insert a conservative clause for the coinage of silver equal to tbe demands of the country, which would satisfy the west and still retain tbe support of tbe east As for Cleveland, Mr. Watterson is opposed to another campaign with a mugwump leader. The Ogden, Utah, university people are still after Sam Small about misap propriating tbe fund* of that institu tion, and tho Rev. Small comes back at them with the barefaced lie, and says they have nothing bat a bole in tbe ground. Sambas resigned tbe presi dency of the college, bnt the directors refuse to accept his resignation until he has properly accounted for tbe funds which came into his hands, and thus the matter remains unsettled. Sam Small Is now in Canada and refuses to appear before a meeting of the direc tors. The whole business is in a muss, and a settlement seems to be in the dis tant future. We will also convince you that it is to your interest (from the stand point of Price) to trade with us. NEW LINE DRESS GOODS! WELL ASSORTED STOCK OF TABLE LINEN, TOWELS, NAPOS, ETC. SPECIAL DRIVE: Majoh W. L. Gi.essnsh, who tvas se lected by tbe World's fair convention to get up the blank petitions to be sent to every cotraty in Georgia earnestly re questing the members of the legislature to vote for the 8100,000 appropriation asked by the convention, is losing no time. The people of Rome approve of tl.e action of the convention heartily. The people want Goorgia represented. They will sign these petitions, and then their representatives in the legislature in voting for an appropriation will simply bo carrying out tho wishes of their con stituent*.—Tribune of-Itome. President Haiiiiison in a speech at Sait Lake City stated that he was proud of tbe fact that so many territories had been admitted to the sisterhood of states under his administration, bnt he failed to say that the rotten boroughs were taken in for the purpose of packing the senate of the United States in tbe in terest of the beneficiaries of the protec tive tariff, and to make the McKinley law stand, if possible, for the next ten yean. WbatjMr. Harrison boasts of is one of the scandals of his administra tion. Advices from Lisbon state that se vere censorahlp has been placed over telegrams sent from or Into that city. Even news telegrams destined for the official journal have been Btopped. The well known political economist, Coello, has written a letter, in which he says that Portugal has a colossal deficit, ruin ous loans contracted upon humiliating terms, and that she is confronted by a monetary, industrial and political crisis of tho most threatening kind.
