Do Saturday George Alfred Town -ehend, the widely known correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer went to see •Crisp for the first time, and his opinion of him is given below: “Gath'' is a severe critic, and seldom compliments people, hence his good words for Crisp have more than usual significance: “I looked !u at three of the aspirants tube Speaker of Congress—Crisp, Me- -MIHin and Springer. “I did not go to see Mr. Mills, because 1 was tuld tbat be was hardly safe at targe, imagines himself to be Mr. Cleve land, and visits the wrath to come of tils countenance upon all suspected of not meditating upon his greatness from the rising of the sun to the going down thereof. “Mr. Crisp, of Georgia, from the town of Americus, is a person of good stature —neither tall nor stout—with body and face harmoniously trim, agreeable, prompt; the easy, yet impressive man oornlng forward like what is called the pnbUe presence, or as 1 thought, the light Apollo. Ha advanced Into a room from an Inside room to speak to his well-wisher, Senator Voorhees, and, not knowing me, I had a chance to no e his method and ezpreaston at leis ure until presented. His face Is refined, observant, keen, yet placid, his complexion pale, bis fea tures distinct, but nowhere coarse or large, rather in womanly than Individual beauty, and winning while dignified. Had I been told that this was the Pres! dent of the United States and should have thought It natural enough. His walk attracted me and his poise while holding Mr. Vorhees' band. Clothed In plain black, probably overworked, need ing sleep, but relying on nature’s stimu lation alone, he said In response that the task he bad In band gave him no leisure, and I thought intimated that the per sonalities Interjected Into It bad been unexpectedi When I was named to him a quick Interest and surprise flashed Into h's expression, and as he spoke I felt another species of Blaine to be there. No hesitation, "nor query, nor suspicion, but a recognition from the republlc-of bright Intercourse. “Why have I never seen you before? Walt till this Is over, however it go, and let us have an even' ingl” Such a representative does more to drive sectionalism away and restore the Union of trustful men than a bun died books, orators and resolutions. “Georgia is the Empire State of the warmer latitudes, because she basso many men like Crisp, New Yorkers of the Southern upland, men not to be Iden tified as local to this or that State, but presentable and impressive in any. “Ametieus, where Mr. 1 Crisp studied law, Is in the ssme county with Ander- sonville prison. Forty years ago Howell Cobb of Macon, fifty miles north of Americus, was elected Speaker of Con grass. A little northwest of Americus For all sick and nervous headaches, take Lemon Elixir.

Is the small county of Schley, with the f" county seat of EUaville, where Mr. Crisp's parents lived, and there he com menced the practice of law at SI, In 1800. In six years he was Solicitor-General of that circuit, and, after public prosecut ing for five years, went on the bench, which he occupied five years, till nomi nated to Congress at the age of 37, and he has been In Congress ever since. No ticket was pnt against him last time. “This statement will show wby Mr. Crisp has not been a bulldozer of any body. He has seen the lost cause lost, has awaited on the bench the leisure of tho lawyers, standing for courtesy and justice, has learned to look rather than cackle, and so he speaks with weight when he speaks upon reel occasion, and knows more than be says. That region of Georgia Is oornlng up In cotton mills, and giving tbs varied appearance of a nation, which raises something besides cotton, hell and oratory. Mr. Crisp Is twenty-four years ycunger than Gov ernor Joseph Brown, twenty-one years younger than bens tor Colbultt, a third of a oentury younger than the Georgia- rebel Vice-President, Stephens, thirty- five years younger than Robert Toombs, and Howell Cobb died when Mr. Crisp was 23. DIM) IV EXILE. Friday night a simple cablegram an nounced the death in Paris of Dom Pe dro U, ex-Emperor of Brazil. His life was a checkered and singular one, full of vivid contrasts and striking incidents. Born of the royal purple, be held the Imperial sceptre of a vast and powerful government, but a system poisoned with numerous corruptions and rank abuses. His enlightened patriotism and progres slve spirit were restless under the tram mels imposed by a seml-oiganlzed social system, and he entered enthusiastically Into devising means of correction and reform. A thorough system of public schools was established; polite letters were encouraged and the ground-work of s native literature was laid; slavery was abolished; broad and beneficent commercial relations knitted Brazil to the United States; scientific researches progressed under the sheltering eye of royalty itself; and every force of modern civilization was put in active operation by the Emperor. His beneficent sway finds a vivid par allel in the golden era of the two Anto- nines of ancient Rome, where laws equi table and needful were most Justly ad ministered. In bis variances with alien nations his attitude was always firm and judicious—conclliatoiy without a a sacrifice of his regal pride or an offense against the haughty traditions of the imperial Braganza. In 1880 the civilized world was startled to bear that a revolution had broken out in Brazil; that a Republic had been proclaimed and that Dom Pedro bad been deposed and banished from the country that owed to him a debt of the warmest gratitude. How serenely and gently the fallen potentate bore the loss of| his crown Is kuown to all, and never was he known to breatliejone word of reproach against the country that he had ruled so long and so brilliantly. The loss of bis wife a few weeks sub sequent to his deposition added many gray hairs to bis venerable head and robbed life of Its choioest inspirations. What a moral Is crowded into those three little words—king and exile. How suggestive they are of the vanity of human hopes or human pride. The crown Is exchanged for the exile's staff and the ruler of a vast country is forced to court the thresh bolds of strangers—an outcast from the people ot whose for tunes he was the architect Dom Pedro's life Is a pathetic one that would readily paint a moral or adorn a tale. Since his deposition he has “lagged superflous on the stage;’’ and death may have been but a blessing in disguise. Vkhy beautiful resolutions were draft ed at the recent Macon meeting of Geor gia editors. But the enthusiasm there manufactured haa not broken forth in afay tangible form for the good of a state exhibit at the World’s Fair.
