S A Ono of Atlanta's Republican poll- ticlans in commenting upon the al leged contest between Gen. Long- street and Col. Buck, was quoted as saying that Mrs. Longstrect said to the Georgia Weekly Press Associa tion, when that association visited Gainesville, “we are all Democrats, now.” Captain H. W. Newnan, of Canton, who was there as a guest of the association, writes that this statement is likely to do Mrs. Long- street great injustice. Captain Newnan Incloses in his letter a copy of the proceedings of that meeting of the association iu which the fol lowing paragraph, the only ono re lating to the occurrence, appear*: Mrs. Longstreet, in whose eyes tears had gathered as she listened to the eloquent words of the gallant orator, grasped him firmly by the hand and said fervently: “I am so glad to meet my people. My only regret Is that my husband is not here to hear your words. I knowhow they would touch his heart.”—Atlanta Constitution. All this is true as far as it goes. But in the proceedings of the meet ing everything that was said by Mrs. Longstreet or by her guests at the reception is not recorded. The editor of the Liberal was stand ing within a few feet of Mrs. Long- street when tlie members of the Weekly Press Association were being introduced to her singly. The name of the gentleman and the name of the paper he represented were called as each one was present- 1 When Col. Newman called ‘Mr. Moore, of the Crawfordville Democrat”, Mrs. Longstreet too-* Mr. Moore’s hand and said “we arc* all good Democrats now.” There were several others who heard it. Col. Newman must have heard it. We have nothing to do with, nor do we care* who comes out on top in the fight between the Republican factions of Georgia for the spoils of office. General Longstreet was not present at the reception tendered tiie Weekly Press Association at his home in Gainesville. The re ception was not intended to have any political significance. MY*. Longstreet had a pleasant word f.i* all. The introductions came in quick succession and no time was riven her for measuring words or calculating their effect. We were her guests and her only thought wa« to say things pleasing aud pleasant to us all. The name of Mr. Moore’s paper brought out the remark on the spur of the moment. We have no idea that she expected its repetition or that sin* incut to convey any such thought as (hat her husband’s political sentiments had undergone a change. But she certainly said it. J. M. Jardine, of Brunswick, has | Q f A I • Just received about 600 raUla grape KnCC (it iw 10T R I fi f vines direct from California, which * Wl VIWIIIIIII| he intends planting on his fruit farm at Nahunta, on the lino of the Brunswick aud Western railroad. Mr. Jardine seems confident that he can raise raisins in that section of the State, aud that they can be dried by the crystalizing process. This process is fast becoming popu lar throughout California iu drying raisins, figs, pears, prunes, etc. If this venture proves successful, many days will not elapse before Georgia will be in the market com peting with Californiafor this trade. Twelve years ago the industry of growing ruisin grapes was com menced iu California, and those who started it were called foolish, but this last season California shipped 1,000,000 boxes of the fruit.

Several days ago the Augusta Evening News was informed of a big Iron find near Union Point, and meeting Mr. Bismuth Miller, who recently lived in Greenesboro, he whs questioned about it. He said: ‘‘Yes, a wonderful deposit has been discovered, and it is one of the richest in the country. It pans out over 70 per cent, of pure iron, and the ores are abundant all through Greene, Wilkes and into Hancock, and they are but about six miles from Union Point, near the seventy- mile post on the Georgia road.” “Will the ore he worked?” “Oh, yes, the land has been purchased by iron-workers from Alabama, aud they have sunk a deep shaft and al ready have a hundred or more tons out. They will work it for all it is worth, and establish mills and fur naces if everything goes well.” Mr. Joe Matthews, of Talbot, says that a chicken was hatched at his home a .few days since that had four legs, four wings and a head like a mouse. He lias preserved this wonderful chicken in alcohol. Georgia is entitled to fourteen Pants, 75c and up. Coats, $ 1 25 and up. Hats, 40c and up. Shoes, 60c and up. Undershirts 25c and up.
