TUB TIMES PUBLISHING COMPANY, Aincricus, Ga |6..«0 Americus, Ga., May 24, 1891. THK NKW MILLKItl IKS The Times-Rkcokdkk has arranged to have a stenographic report taken of K$v. Dr. Carswell’s sermon to be delivered at Cordefe this morning on the subject of the end of the world. The sermon will appear in the next issue A great deal of interest is being taken in this question, because of the learning and intelligence of the men who are so boldly advocating their therories; and big crowds are going to hear not only Dr. Carswell, but others who are on the same line. ( Whatever may bo said about the Rkv.’Du. K.

So there PoisTt oai.'- political crisis lias ter- j is now no answer to Prof. Totten's lig- minatcd by the formation of a cabinet with General de Lousa at. the head, and it is to he hoped that stability iu poli tics may tend to restore confidence in business circles that lias been so badly broken of lato. Portugal is in a had ures except to say, "wait and see," anil as April 14th, ISttP, is the outside limit of time allowed for the tinal catastrophe, the most of us can afford to wait devel opments. An Americus hanker, when asked way, and some radical improvement in j whether Ids policy would be to curtail business or politics is imperative Mb. Wattebson suggests to President Harrison that ylten ltaum resigns the office of commissioner of pensions that he give the office to some educated, ca pable colored man. The double sar casm of the suggestion probably is that Raum has no idea of resigning, and if he did resign Harrison wouldn't think of appointing a colored man to the place. The Supremo council of the Itoyal Arcanum meets in Atlantic City, New Jersey, the first Wednesday in June, and will be composed of ollicers and| MB ' representatives from twenty states and Canada. The growth of the order lias been very remarkable the past year, being about 15,000, which Indicates the popularity of its system. The increase in Gourgia has been over 500. Inllines in anticipation of the end next year, nr a little later, replied that it would no doubt bo just as well to have a safe full of money as none at all at that time, and he proposed to go ahead and make money just as if nothing would ever happen. It Is not likely, therefore, that the elo quence of tlio Second Adventists will materially interfere witli the regular course of human affairs, even if a fow people go off at a tangent and never re turn to the mundane circle. It is bad for a government when it is distrusted by it own subjects. During the past two months, in which the Ital ian government has been alarmed for tho safety of its subjects in this coun try, many thousand, of It. subjects have taken all tl>, risks by coming here. Our consul at Naples und. word that at this time Italians are leaving that port for the United States as fast aa steamships can he found to carry them. Preralor Iiudlni had better refrain from writing any more dispatches about tho American question until he has sent in terviewers here to get the experiences and untiments of hi. countrymen in onr "Italian colonies.” / The Louisiana Supremo court lias de cided what la known na the If ope bond case against tbo state. Hope ft Co., of Amterdam, purchased forty yoars ago over $4,000,000 of itonds Issued by the "CUlzent'bauk of New Orleans which were guaranteed by tho state. The bank re tired all its iuuo oxropt the bonds held by Hope A Co., and finally ceased to paylutercst on these, arranging with the state to tako its real estate and aa- uume the obligations thereon. Hope A Co. then demanded payment from the state, which waa refuud. Suit waa en tered for a mandamus to compel the Funding board to fund the bonds. In the lower court the decision was in fa vor of tbs state. Thts decision was re versed Friday, two of the five judges disunting, and the mandamus was or dered to iuue. The effect will be the addition of uveral millions principal and interest to the funded debt of the state. On the other hand the state comes loto possession of valuablo real estate upon which the bonds were predicated. LIVINGSTON AND TUB THIRD PARTY. However great may have been the censure lavished upon Mr. L. F. Living ston in the past, and however mucli lie may have deserved it, lie is certainly en titled now to the plaudits of the people for his hold and nggressii e stand against a third party, which position lie held bo strongly at the convention in Cincinnati. Mr. Livingston comes in for double honors in this connection, for, not being a delegate to the convention, but as president of the farmers’ allianco of Georgia being entitled to some courte sies at tho hands of his brother alliance- mon, he grasped the situation and urged strongly tile postponement of such action. Mr, Livingston is fair enough in his views to sco tho evil that such a move ment would result In. Democracy is the bod rock, the very foundation of the Alliance. Its very motto, “equal privi leges to all, special favors to none,” la as old ns tho democratic party itself. It was one of Thomaa Jefferson's maxims, and Mr. Livingston in Ilia (pooches and addressos has unhesitatingly preached this doctrine, showing that the alliance has for its basis and very ground upon which it rests, that tho old demo cratic doctrine enunciated by tho father of tho party. Mr. Livingston was right in urging the postponement of suoh an effort, and it Is to be hoped that he will lend hla efforts In future against the accomplish ment of suoh a scheme, for the alliance and she democrats,locked In inseparable union as they are,will find a party split disastrous to both. It would result in tntoruocino strife,and a grand politloai revolution would follow that would rock every state government in this Motion.-— Albany News. The Chilian insurgent war vessel Es meralda if lying helpless in the harbor of Acapulco. Site ran into port to coal, but the Moxicau authorities refused the supplies on the ground that to fnrniab thorn would constitute a violation of the neutrality laws. Then the Esmeralda offered to purchase from the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, whiob keeps a coaling station there. The preslden t of the company telegraphed the depart ment from New York, asking for in structions in the matter. He waa im mediately notified that he should not un der any circumstances sell them a bush el of coal, and thou to make matters doubly sure Consul McCaskey, at Aca pulco, was instructed to see that the orders of the department were strictly obeyed. Without coal the Esmeralda cannot move out of the harbor. She will be compelled to remain there until MMisiance can be sent to her from Chili. It is an extraordinary situation. There has been some expectation that she ' might resort to force to supply her bunkers, for there it plenty of coal Id and around the town, bat this is hardly probable. Her safer plant, end the one she will probably follow, la to commu nicate liersituation to the authorities at Iquique and await, their teUoo. No word has yet been motived from the Itata.

Is this long suffering republic to stand a perpetual infliction of an “Old Man of the Sea" in the person of the pension commissioner? It looks liko he can't be shaken oil, in spite of bis unsavory record. Then, as if he feared the coun try couldn't get enough of him in the first degree, he has been training up a young sprig from tho same old bough who has so far transcended tho limits of decency that the long dormant senso of sliamo of the republican party is arous ed, and thero is a disposition to shake off the deadly incubus of both the Itaums, father and hopeful son, but when the president wants to call for Itaum’s resignation, he appears to be afraid to do so openly, as this is not the soason to make political enemies of even such men as Raum. True to the record of office-holders, he will neither die nor resign unless the president can finally summon enough courage to demand his scalp. If Raum doos'nt resign he will be in vestigated by congress. The country is not satisfied with the management of the pension office and the president knows it isn't. It is probable, therefore, that the rumor that the president ia looking for Ranm’s successor is oorrect. And it can bo pretty safely stated that he will find him before long. Surprise Is expressed that Green B. Raum, Jr. Is not prosecuted for his al leged frauds on the civil service com mission, and It ia said that his "pull” alone prevents It bio n» The New York lawyer who received $200,000 as a fee in settling up the affairs of the assigned firm of Decker, Howell A Co., still standi at the head. The Philadelphia Record has been looking up the big fees paid to members of the bar In that elty, but can find none larger than $100,000, which was paid to Wayne MacVeagh for his services in defending the Pullman l’alaco Car company in the big anit against it of the Central Trans portation company. John G. Thompson is said to have pockoted $50,000 moro than once in Im- portact cases in which be has figured, but these large compensations arc very rare in the Quaker City. Senator Bon Hill, of Georgia, got a foe of $100,000 in the Metcalf cotton case in Augusta, Ga., just after the war. General Henry It. Jackson, of Savan nah,Is said to have got a fee in a railroad caso some years ago, which while not paid in actual cash at tho timo was in property which turned out very shortly tberesfter to be worth $400,000, so that ho really got what was the equivalent of that much money. So that General Jackson is ahead even of tbo New York lawyer by $140,(TO which by itself is larger than any other fee on record.

MB. BLAINE'S HEALTH. Vague and painful reports of Mr. Blaine's physical condition fill the air. It may be difficult to reach a definite conclusion on the subject, but it is evi dent that the cares of.office have at least impaired a naturally vigorous constitu tion. Very few gentlemen in public life have done as much hard work as Mr. Blaine. He has been somewhat spendthrift of his vital energy, so eager in the accom plishment of Ids many difficult tasks that ho did not reckon the consequences to Ids nervous system. No man in tills country ever excited such admiration on the one hand, or such determined opposition on the other. For years he has been in the vortex of political events, lias met ap palling odds with courage and succumb ed to fate with all tho grace the occasion demanded. Such a life of strange vicissitude and constant struggle tells on a man as age advances. He cannot keep up the strain with impunity; cannot stay in the thick of tho fight without bearing away some deep wounds. Wo have opposed Mr. Blaine's meas ures, have been both free and fearless in comments on his policy. As a sturdy contestant for what ho believes to lie right, however, wc are always glad to give him credit. lie is a foe worthy of any Irian's steel, and if it he true that lie is either partially or wholly disabled we desire to he among the first to express our sorrow. It is to be hoped, however, that cur- Yent reports are an exaggeration and that we shall have the pleasure of meet ing him on the field of political battle for many years to come.—New York Herald. BEALL & OAKLEY, 313 LAMAR STREET, ■OFFER' For the next thirty days, startling reductions in their entire stock DRY GOODS, DRESS GOODS, THE OUTFLOW OF GOLD. Europe has got more than $40,000,000 of our gold within the last few months, and still the outflow continuts at the rate of several millions a week. Onr fi nanciers say that the outflow will oease shortly. It is to be hoped that it will. It Is having a paralysing effect in this country. It lx true that no financial disturb ances have been produced, and it ia probable that we eonld stand the loss of a good many millions more without showing any symptoms of alarm, but the fact cannot be concealed that there ia a lack of buoyant feeling in the money centers and business circles of the coun try in consequence of this steady out flow, the most of which is going to Russia, where it will be permanently withdrawn from circulation. Kxo land is becoming alarmed at the exodus of destitute Hebrews from Rus sia, as large numbers of them are seek ing refuge in Great Britain. This move ment has assumed such proportions that it Is termed the “Hebrew invasion of England.” It is estimated that about five hundred appeals are made each week to the different newspapers by in dividuals urging that the authorities should introduce legislation to exclude destitute aliens similar to the immigra tion law recently adopted by the United States.
