It is satd that an arerage of 100 new words an coined In the English language every year. -u. •• Tnn alliance candidate for governor of Minnesota Is bitterly opposed to the sub- treaaiiry scheme. The Impending eruption of old Veiu- vius comes too late to connect It In any ■way with the affair at New Orleans. Tffw fatttih’rs of the west are now busy saving the chudtry In a way that counts, ’rtiey hre bkrVestlug the wheat crop. LilL hi'd ^ i-ii. r , The funny editor of the Southern Ah liance Farmer says: “We see but little chance of Georgia going democratic In 1892.*' Now let Puok and Judge look ont for their laurela. SAM Small has been in trouble ever Mtacd he ridlt’ newspaper work and be came a travelling preacher. Sam made a tnldtakbih that he didn't recognize 'thalfa ttlil good newspaper man la the trne evangelist. AxxAxnxMKXTs hare been perfected (ot the erection of a new gaa plant In Amertcus, and soon the burners whloh flickered, ont A few months ago will again be ablaze with greater brilliancy than ever before. 1 The republican convention of Ohio la in session at Columbus for the purpose of nominating McKinley for governor. The democrats in that state will nomi nate Governor Campbell, and the race will be one ot great Interest. The most paradoxical thing In poli tics la thd irtovemCnt In ’the peqple’s party to make I.eland Stanford its nom inee fbr the presidency. The California senator la worth $20,000,000 and Is large ly Interested In railroads and other cor porations : THE HEIR APPARENT. One of the most striking signs of the times Is the outburst all over England, in every class except the effete nobility, sgalnst the prince of Wales for his con nection with the late gambling scandal. It is not so much against this particu lar offense that the public indignation is directed; for pnbllo opinion In England la very lenient towards gambling and betting on races, especially when the of fender happens to be of the nobility, but the prince for thirty yean baa led the life of a libertine, gambler and genera) rowdy, and this last offense, while no more than scores of othen committed by the prince, has proven the straw that has broken the camel's back of public forbearance; and the long pont-up vials of wrath are being opened upon hia royal head from all masters. If his hide isn't as tough as a rhinoceros, he must feel keenly the humiliation that should follow the de nunciations of all the decent people In the kingdom What aggravates the situation in the minds of Christian peoplo is the foot that the prince is the prospective head of the ohurch of England, which dissent era os well os churchmen pay taxes to support; and It Is high time that a roan who Is to be the vlcor of Christ in the near futnre should quit gambling and indulging in all sorts of vices that would disgrace a heather, especially as he is fifty years aid and a grandfather. Let the prince take warning, lest the forbearance of conservative England be tried too far, and a revolution deprive him of bis throne before he ever reach es It AiioDt twenty members of the Geor gia Praia association left Atlanta yester day on the excursion to tbe lakes. Home of the boys did not like it because they could not take tbelr wives, or sweet hearts, or sisters, and did not care to make tbo trip without them. . Ir za now thought that owing to tbe blundering of the North Carolina legis lature, Governor Holt of that state has no right to cross its boundaries, as it would leave the state without a govern or. : It le a curious state of affairs when a governor Is not allowed to exchange courtesies with his neighbor. Tux Georgia Press association prompt ly sat dowb upon a set of resolutions of fered by TrbX Bankston, the young man whtr runs tbe Ringgold New South, con demning the farmers alliance. The Georgia press Is with the farmers and the Airmen are with tbe press. Troxy struck tbe wrong crowd with , bis reso lutions. , It is estimated that Sumner county, Kansas, will harvest 5,000,000 bushels _ of wheat this week. That Is probably ~ tbe banner county, of , the state as a wheat producer, but there are 105 more tbat will do nearly at well. The bounti- ful crops oomes to tbe Kansas farmers as a recompense for having repudiated tbe republican party but fall. To expel six young ministers of tbe Gospel just because they voted In politi cal elections and would not promise to ever refrain from repeating this offense, la about the most foolish aet of the kind we have read of In this century. Such was the conduct of tbe Reformed Pres byterian church In Pennsylvania last week. The vote woa about two to one against the young men, who will now Join what le called the United Preebyte rlan church. IMPATIENT WITH IIOVALTV. The prince of Wayles 1ms been hissed by an English crowd, and the provincial press, taking its cue from the London Chronicle, is bulling its thunderbolts at his royal highness, denouncing him as a common gambler and repeating with emphasis the demand of tbe London pa per tbat the man who aspires to repre sent Englishmen must bo exceedingly jealous of his reputation and not one known as a baccarat gambler and special ist in gambling counters. And It is sold that earnest and strong as the criticism may be, It Is nothing compared to that which is to follow when all the Protestant religious bodies are beard from. All of this goes to Indicate the impa tience of tlio English people with scape grace royalty; but it comes from tbe lower ranks and In some degree from “Radicals and discontents,” who might be suspected of seixlng on an excuse to attack the monarchy. Tbe attack ou the princo, however, has not been condnod to this class. Sir Edward Clarke, who boldly stated In tbe prince’s presenoe that he was no better than Sir Gordon Cumming, is a member of the Salisbury Mintstery, the solicitor- general of England, and, by virtue of his office, one of the queen's advisers. Us is s prominent conservative and represents conservative sentiment, yet it is stated that he recolvod the congratu lations of bis fellow members of the bouse of commons; men of all shades of party shaking him by the hand and thanking him for the example of courage he made. All of this goes to (how that the peo ple are not only supremo In England, but tbat they are oxqeedingly Impatient of the sham of royalty which they sup port at a great expense. The popular respect for Queen Victo ria seems to be about the ouly prop left to the monarchy. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN ? In bln official statement relating to the Keystone Bank, Comptroller Lacey says tbe first information he received of the Lucas defalcation was In a communica tion from Examiner Drew dated Jan uary 24. When Drew was before the Councils' Investigating committee lie testified that be got Marsh's confession on January 5. From this he discovered that the bank bad been robbed of six L undred thou sand dollars—a hundred thousand more than its capital—and tbat Marsh, its then president, had not only known of the robbery, but had been trying to con- ceal it. Accepting Comptroller Lacey's state ment that lie was first iuformed of this on January 24, the question arises, Why did Examiner Drew wait three weeks before telling his superior officer that he had made a discovery which threat ened the ruin of the hank and criminally involved its president? Failure to re port promptly a discovery so important would seem to bo sufficient cause for calling Drew sternly to account. But Drew lias testified that he report ed the defacation as soon as ho discov ered it on January 5. Here is Ids testi mony: Mr. McErtilCen one of fhe directors, brought the statement of Marsh's confession to me ut the Continental Hotel on tbeeven- Ihat day. Within an hour ol that time n letter to the comptroller inform- of the fact of Marsh s confession. Drew further testified that from that time till January 24, when he made his first official report, he communicated daily with the comptroller touching the affairs of tlo bank. Both the comp troller and the examiner cannot he cor rect. Which one is wrong ? BEALL & OAKLEY. BARGAINS 1 And Special Prices still the rule of the with us. For day SETTLED AT LAST. At last tlio soal question is settled. President narrison yesterday issued Ids proclamation announcing that the agree ment between the United States and Great Britain for the prohibition of seal catching in Bohring Sea has been con eluded and would be enforced against all offenders, American or foreign. The prohibition is absolute, except that the North American Commercial Company will be permitted to take seven thousand five hundred seals for the support of the nntivos. This arrangement is to last for a year. It will, to uso the president’s words “avoid irritating differences” between tbo two governments and operate “for the preservation of tlio seal species' during this season. Meanwbilo the questions that have been so elaborately discussed by Mr. Blaine and Lord Salis bury are to bo submitted to arbitrators, whose decision will be binding on both governments and will, therefore, deter mine tlio rights of each. The controversy whicii has bcon waged so long and so earnestly may, then, be regarded a practically settled—a result for which tlio peoplo of both countries aro doubtless duly thankful.

De Witt's Little Enrly Risers, tho pill - It is not often that then Is an extra sale of a newspaper because of an able emanation from tbe editor giving his opinion on a publio matter, but such was the case recently in England. Tbe largest sale of any London paper during or after the baccarat trial was tbat of the Chronlale, containing the editorial written by Massiugbam, fearlessly de nouncing the prince of Wales. So great was the demand for the paper contain ing the editorial that many orders bad to be left unfilled, though the preaa worked all day. At tbe republican state convention at Columbus, Ohio, Tuesday, the bare al lusion by a speaker to Blaine brought forth «ucS a demonstatlon as proved that be Is still the Idol of that party; though, strange to say, they bad for years peraistently refused to nominate him for the presidency, and when at last they did so In response to the popu lar demand, they permitted old Buc:ch ard with his three R’s to knock him ont in tbe ffrst round. Some men are too big ever to to president; such as Clay, Calhoun and Webster, and Blaine set ms destined to join the record of that fa mous trio. Much regret Is expressed In the many quarters at the recent changes In tho Central management, not only becauso some good men were wholly displaced, but because certain other good men were not promoted. Mr.,W. W, Starr was next Id rank to General Manager Gab- bet, and should have been mode the gen eral superintendent, because he knows more about tbe Central ayatem than any newly Imported man can learn In live years,' and has been identified with the Central from boyhood, while the new managor McBco la a total stranger to Georgia and her railroad needs. Till-: TiHBH-RxconuxR may not know how to run a railroad, but it knows who aro the men that do, and Ur. Starr la one of the very beat of them, and his merits will soon have to be recognized. Cotton is lower than since 1850, and tills Is bosod upon the eatlroato that this crop will ran to 9,000,000 bales, or about 1,500,000 bales more than was supposed a year ago to be in prospect It would seem time to quit making “estimates' when the most accomplished estimators missed it a million bales, but already the flgures of next crop are being put forth, and it Is estimated that 8,000,000 bales or more will be raised In 1801-02. With a surplus of 1,000,000 bates from thb present crop, to start in with next fall, the prospect of still lower prices than now prevail, Is very strong, and some even predict tbat we may expect to see middling cotton at Ore cento in interior markets before tbe spring of 1892 closes. for constipation, biliousness, sick head ache.
