O. money order or ex press. The Postmaster-General has under consideration the establishment of free delivery service in Americus and other points in the South. Cleveland can hardly be longer re ferred to as “the great boss." He be came a back number a few days since when he assumed the position of lieu tenant governor in his family. The lady editors are coming to the front in Georgia. Miss Harrydele Hall mark (can’t some good fellow induce her to change this name?) is announced os a member of the staff of The Augusta Chronicle. The Savannah Morning News notes that Hon. Gazaway Hartridge expects to re-enter the newspaper Held as a Wash ington correspondent this winter, lie will probably represent a syndicate of Southern papers. The Sea Island cotton planters of South Carolina, who were to hold a con vention last Thursday with a view to forming a combination to prevent the sale of Sea Island cottonseed, decided at that meeting that it would bo unwise to attempt to do this, as it was not deemed giracticablo. The state is now confronted by with the frightful possibility of an extra sess ion of the legislature, which may become mecessary to rectify the blunder in framing the appropriation bill for the public school fund. What have the peo ple of Georgia done that they should have to suffer thus? Thk ecumenical convention is almost as lively as a session of the house of rep resentatives w ith Tom Reed in the chair. Mr. Atkinson's statement that he desired to ‘ knock a bishop down—from the ■chair or on the floor,” is an evidence that muscular Christianity is gaining ground with the brethren. The stars and stripes arc to wave 1,120 feet above the ground—higher than a flag has ever waved before. It is to be done during the World's Fair from an American tower that will outdo Kiffel, Paris. The builder is to be Andrew Car negie of Pittsburg. Andrew thus pro poses to elevate the American flag as typical of the lofty taritf out of which he has made his millions. SOLID INDUSTRIAL GROWTH IN THE SOUTH. The Manufacturers’ Record, of Balti more, October 17, in reviewing the in dustrial progress of the south, says: “The past week has been a very active one in southern development, and the Manufacturers’ Record has very rarely had to report a wider range of indus trial advancement than for the last seven days, even though the financial world is not yet looking for investments In new ventures to any great extent. Despite this, however, the south is pushing ahead and rapidly organizing new man ufacturing and mining enterprises to utilize its vast resources. This growth is not confined to any one state, nor to a few industries only, but. takes in the whole south and covers almost every line of manufacturing, including fur naces, foundries, cotton mills, coal mines, iron-ore mines, ice factories, water works, electric-light works, wood working enterprises, tobacco factories, fertilizer factories, breweries, phosphate mines and works, etc. The leading event of the week is the announcement of the final closing of the sale of 150,000 acres of mineral and timber land, including coke ovens, lum ber mill, etc., In Eastern Kentucky to a Belgian syndicate for $5,000,000, a part of which, it is understood, goes into the opening of new coal mines, the building of coke ovens, furnaces, saw-mills, etc. A dispatch from London says that the directors of the Middlesborough Town Company have voted $1,250,000 to be ex pended ig pushing the enterprises under constri)s^p|i at Middlesborough to com pletion, “Amfyfijf fither enterprises are the pur chase f*ten*ive property in and around Dcfla, Fla., the price being re ported #500,000 for development work the Investment at Dunnellon, in the same State, of about $200,000 for im provements; a $200,000 improvement company at Alabama City, Ala.; six phosphate mining and manufacturing companies In Florida; an ice factory at Lakeland, Fla.; $15,000 saw mill in the same State; a $100,000 brewery company and a cooperage factory at Augusta, Ga; a 150 ton ice factory at New Orleans, La; a $50,000 engine works at Baltimore, Md.; a $100,000 brewery at Bristol, Tenn.; a $500,000 oil and gas company, $750,000 mining company, two $100,000 and one $50,000 coal raining companies, all in West Virginia; a $300,000 packing and refrigerating company at New Or leans; a $1,500,000 harbor and dook com pany at Aransas Pass, Texas; $50,000 tobacco warehouse company in Florida; a $70,000 hedge-fence company in Louis* iana; a $300,000 lumber company at Nor folk, Va.; a $25,000 wagon manufactur ing company at Richmond, Va.; the pur chase by western people of 42,000 acres of timber land near Greenwood, Miss., and a $40,000 cooperage plant at that place; wagon factory at Columbus, Ga.; two tobacco factories, lumber mill and canning factory at Mt. Airy, N. C ; fer tilizer works at Banberg and Charleston, S. C.; compress company at Columbia; water works at Decherd, Tenn., and Bar tow, Fla.; Hour mill, Estill Springs, Tenn.; tobacco factory, Danville. Nego tiations are pending for beet-sugar fac tories, a new industry for the South, at Staunton, Va., and Martinsburg, W. Va. Such is the record for ono week. It docs not include all that has been done In that time, nor does it take account of the progress of enterprises previously mentioned. It is simply a brief summa ry of the more important concerns re ported in this week’s issue of the Manu facturers’ Record, and of which full de tails are given, showing that these are uot simply enterprises that aro talked of but that they have all been organized. It is an eucouraging exhibit of the week’s work, and indicates how solidly the South is growing, and how groat will be the activity when tho full benefit of this year’s enormous crops is felt next spring after the wheat and corn and cotton which have been produced have been marketed and business of all kinds has receivod tho impulse that must inevita bly come then.” The success attained by Dr. Keely in his treatment of inebriates deserves, per haps, to rank as the greatest medical triumph of tho age. The Keeley treat ment seems to be as effectual a cure for the liquor and opium habits as Jcnner’s treatment is effectual as a preventive of small-pox. There are objections to vac illation, but none have been urged against the use of hi-chlorido of gold, ex cept that it has failed in the hands of ther physicians to accomplish tho re- j suits expected of it. But this remedial j I agent is not the only one employed by ! j I)r. Keeley. He has secrets that he im- j parts to no one except the chemist he [employs. Ilis system of treatment is practiced by agents of his in other states, and he supplies them with all the modi-j eines they use. THE CHURCH OR THE STATE? The pope, in a note to the powers, says that the recent Parteon disorders were of extreme importance, and insists that it is impossible for both the Italian government and the papacy to remain in Rome. The establishment of King Victor Im manuel’s throne in Rome was in effect the destruction of the temporal power of the church; and while a show of inde pendence has been maintained, the fact is that the pope has for years been a prisoner, whose power outside spiritual matters was limited to the issue of pro- nunciamentos against the Italian govern* ment for its usurpation of his authority. The pope is a statesman of high order, and no one recognises better than he that even in Italy the doctrine of the separation of church and state is too strong to be successfully combatted; and that if the church is to continue to claim temporal power, it must be done outside the seat of government of the king who disputes the claim. The question of the removal of the Holy See from Italy becomes daily one of more pressing importance; but no sat isfactory solution seems to be at hand; for while Spain is the most thoroughly Catholic country in the world, and has expressed a strong desire to have the pontifical throne established in her bor ders, there is yet so strong a develop ment of anti-monarchical spirit there that Spain may not even preserve her status as a Kingdom many years, much less yield her autonomy to the temporal sceptre of the Pope. It is freely predicted that the nine teenth century will soe Spain a republic with Castelar her president, and under such conditions there would of course be no room for papal authority in tem porary matters. To the broader-minded Catholics it looks like the temporal power of the church would have to go before tho on ward march of republicanism; and it is now a much mooted question whether the church could not enhance its spir itual power by relinquishing altogether the dogma of temporal authority, which while potent and oven useful in former ages, can no longer regulate the affairs of modern constitutional governments. If the Pope would gain his consent to forego the claim of temporal power, and move the Holy See to the United States, it is believed that one of the strongest coup d’ etats of modern history would be enacted; and that church put upon a higher plane than it has occupied since Apostolic days. How would Atlanta do as a location for tho Holy See? THE TWO CANDIDATES. The announcement that Judge CrUp of Georgia has gone to Ohio to support Governor Campbell will add considera bly to public interest In the momentous contest that la going on in that state. The interest in Judge Crisp will not bo due merely to the fact that he is a new and conspicuous figure in national poli tics, but more to the rivalry for the speakership which exists between him and Mr. Mills. The Texas statesman has won a great deal of prestige by the excellent work he has done in Ohio, while tho noted Georgian lias been in a measure lost sight of. Now he will come to the front again, and the public ment will be enabled to judge how ho com pares with Mr. Mills as a stump speaker, if not as to his qualifications for the sreakersldp. It Is questionable if it be good policy to bring such noted southerners as Mills and Crisp into direct antagonism witli the Ohio republicans. Still the best means of breaking down sectional prej udice is to bring the people of the sec tions together. Even tho bringing to gether of the northorn and southern ar mies caused tho men of the North and South to respect each other more than before. Bui tho Ohio republicans are notoriously unscrupulous, and if they think they can mako capital out of it they will raise a woful howl about the invasion by southern politicians. Even the election of a southerner for speaker will be seized upon as a retext for stir ring up what sectional prejudice there Is in the North. Happily that most unpa triotic spirit is becoming beautifully less. At any rate it is timo for the people of the South to stand by the rights to which their numbers and intelligence entitle them.—Jacksonville Times Union. Mb. O. K. Latham, of Staunton, Va., a gentleman of considerable wealth, formerly of Chicago, has offered to the Farmers’ Alliance of Augusta county, Va., to build a beet-sugar factory with a capacity of from 150 to 250 tons of beets a day, provided the farmers of that county will plant not less than 1,500 acres In beets. Mr. Lapham also agrees to furnish the seed and the fertilizers re quired, and take his pay in beets. The Tribune-of-Rome is as outspoken on many questions as tho Sparta Isli inaelite. On tho pension bill iu the ley islature it says: “That attempt to give a pension to every individual Confeder ate soldier in Georgia was an outrageous piece of legislation. It was simply an attempt on the part of the “03 and a nig ger” to make amends to the people of Georgia, and especially to the old sol diers, for the brutal treatment of them in refusing to accept the Confederate Soldiers' Home. But it didn't work. The bill was killed, and with it the men who turned their backs on the Confeder ate veterans. The Manufacturer’s Record says: The Berner bill, which recently passed tho Georgia house of representatives, lias been defeated in tho senate. Geor- ;ia is to be congratulated that her sena tors have thus shown their wisdom in defeating a measure which would have proved of great injury to the whole State by seriously crippling all of its railroads. Instead of fighting railroads as some of the Southern States are con stantly doing, it would be tho part of wisdom if they would givo every possi ble encouragement to railroad builders and operators. The South needs more railroads and more capital, and it can only get them by fair and liberal treat ment.” GONE HOME. Here is how the Atlanta Herald turns loose the vials of its wrath upon the late unlamented: “The Legislature is going home. “Going home, to meet the wrath of Georgia taxpayers. “Going home, to preach economy in the knowledge of their own wasteful ex travagances. “Going home, to account for their failure to accept a home that was dona ted for the old soldier. “Going home, to come in contact with a co n stituency that has suffered by their representation. “Going homo, to hear the solemn pro tests of a great people against a record ol the most wasteful misuse of public funds. “Going home, to listen to the tale of woe of a tax-burdened people whom they have encumbered by extravagant expenditures. “Going home, to explain why in the face of their boasted economy they have made the taxes of Georgia higher than they have ever been before. “Going home, to face the condemna tion that justly awaits them for being parties to the most outrageous scenes that have ever brought disgrace upon a legislative assembly. “Going home, struggling under the most replete record of legislative useless ness that has ever signalized the delib erations of a body of public servants in the history of the state. “Going home, laden with free passes in one pocket, and mileage allowances in the other, when they had an opportu nity to enact a law against the accept ance of such hampering courtesies. Going home, to answer why they voted $400,000 to the widows of ex-Con- federates, when $200,000 and $15,000 a year to sustain a home for the penniless survivors of that cause, was what the people demanded. Going home, this twin brother of the billion-dollar congress, to be buried be neath a swelling tide of popular indigna tion. “Going home! God pity them! May such a body never assemble again.” THE TRAMMELL SUBSTITUTE. The following is a correct version of the now famous Democratic resolution. The substitute offered by Representative Trammell to the Sibley resolution which was designed to force the House of Rep resentatives to indorse the Ocala plat form was badly marred in the first pub lication of It by the Atlanta papers. There was a most important omission in that report, and one which entirely changed the meaning and intent of the author of the substitute. In the original were these words: “and complained of by the Democratic party.” These words were omitted in the first publication. Here is the correct version of the substi tute: "Resolved by the House of Representa tives, the Senate concurring, that our Sena tors and Representatives In Congress be, and they are hereby requested to use their influ ence and votes to secure legislation which will correct the evils complained of by the National Farmers Alliance and Industrial Union In convention at Ocala, Fla., and complained of by the Democratic pnrty, es pecltlly tho*»e that re I at- to the pr-sent financial and taxation policy of the govern- The prohibition business has got the tobacco worms on the run; and now tea and coffee are to be laid out. Here is the latest development of science on the the bill of the supposed harmless bever ages that we drink: “The case of Dr. Fownos of New Yoak, a prominent phy sician who died from the effects of strong coffee, token in immense quantities, is attracting general attention. It is prob ably tho first case on record in which this beverage has caused death, and the interest of physicians is correspondingly awakened. The effects of tea and cof fee. unlike those of alcohol, are not in- stontaneous, and their results are not easily traceable to the proper cause. People who uso those beverages to an excessive extent are poisoned without realizing the fact. They are aware that something is ailing them, but the appa rently innocent drinks in which they so freely indulge are tho last things in the world to which they attribute their trouble.” PARTON, THE HISTORIAN. The death of James Parton, the histo rian, removes a prominent literary char acter from life. His lives of Greely, Aaron Burr, Andrew Jackson, and other prominent Americans were works of su perior merit. His most pretentious work was his Life of Voltoise recently pub fished. His wife was the well-known “Fanny Fern,” who was no less well known in literary circles than her hus band. Parton was commissioned a few years •ago by the Harpers to write a life of Washington, that was regardless of ex pense, to he the greatest and most accu rate and reliable history of the father of his country ever written. Parton went to Virginia, and after months of careful investigation of letters and other volu minous data about Washington, he re turned to the Harpers and threw up his commission, explaining to these aston ished publishers that if he wrote a truthful history of Washington and the Harpers printed It, both writer and pub lishers would be mobbed by the Ameri can people. lie said that Washington’s private cor respondence showed him to be a man of such loose moral character, that the shock to popular sentiment would be too great; and that the actual truth could not be told to a people who had been taught to revere him as a model man in all respects. The Harpers were satisfied that Par- ten’s report was reliable; and so tho great life of Washington remained un written. THE ABLE ASSISTANT, In a recent number of the New York Journalist that paper takes the ground that the shears are quite as important at times as the quill. It says: “A good many people do not know that an editor’s selections from his con temporaries are quite often the best test of his editorial ability, and that the function of the scissors is not merely to fill up vacant spaces, but to reproduce the brightest and best thoughts and the most attractive news from all the source* at the editors command. There are times when the editor opens his ex change and finds a feast for eyes, heart, ana soul. The thoughts of his ccatem- porary glow with life. He wishes his readers to enjoy the feast, and ho lov ingly takes up the scissors and clips and clips, and sighs to think that his space is inadequate to contain all the treasures prodigally spread before him. A/tcr all the true test of a newspaper’s real value is not the amount of original mat ter it contains, but the average quality of all the matter appearing iu its col umns, whether original or selected.” A cable to the New York Herald from China says that the Russians have invaded Chinese territory. A frontier officer at Chang reports that he re cently met a Russian expedition descend ing the Alai plateau, and that lie pro tested against this invasion of Chinese territory, but the Russians, being in greater force than the Chinese, disre garded the protest and continued their march. One division of Russians pro ceeded to Alicliar, in the Pamir territo ry, and another division marched toward tho Groat Pamir territory. The Novoe Vremya, the Russian government organ says that a meeting between the Rus sians and the British in Pamir was inev itable, adding: “British incursions and Afghan and Chinese raids, violating the conventions forbidding them access to Pamir, now make it imperative to deter mine the exact frontier. Russian diplo macy would find no difficulty in estab lishing suzerian rights over the terri tory.” A COTTON FACTORY. What step do our people next p ropo to take to promote the growth and pro? perity of Americus? What about tt, cotton factory that has been discmJI off and on for two years? Why s jj 0uld it not now bo pushed through? c any thing be done that will pay a (, ette ° return on the inrestment and turn more money loose in this community? Here are some figures that are worn considering: A pound of cotton that costa eight to nine cents makes four yardsTf osnaburgs or chocks that sell for eigbj to twelve cents per yard, or a value ere ated in manufacturing of 23 to to cents per pound. This margin goes to labor, and thus build up trade, pay rent expenses, etc., and pay a dividend on the capital. Even if the investment paid no direct dividends the merchants of Americus could afford to build a cotton factory for the increased volume of trade that the one thousand more people brought here would create. A few shares each by all the merchants of Americus would do the work, to say nothing of investments by capitalists, for it is well known that properly managed, cotton manufactur ing right in the field is a very profitable business. Let’s have a cotton factory! If people would take the advice of ff. C. Kussoll, tho druggist, they never would start on a journey without a bot tle af Chamborlaln's Colic, Cholera and Dlrrhcca Remedy. It can always be de- pended upon and is pleasant to take. ootl lm Editor Cuuistophkk, of Montezuma, who is now publishing an out-and-out third party paper, is very much outraged that the Berncr-Smith bill was defeated, and he uses strong language on tho ac tion of tho Sonate. Ho says: “How much money did it take to briho tho Senate and kill the Smith substitute? If not bribed, every member of the Senate who voted against it swore to a lie. They swore they would enforce the con- ■tltution, and they failed to do it." AecoitMNti to the Washington (Ga) Gazette the first two cotton factories in Georgia wero built iu 1811, and ono was in that county. It was called Bolton's factory, though that was not the charter name. It was on Rocky creok, within a few yards of what is now Simpson's mll'.ri. It was of stone, and Mr. Simpson has under his mfil-huuse a part of the stone arcli over tho door. A part of tho name Bolton is easily read, ami the fig ures 1811 plainly remain. Mr. Bolton, a Savannaii man of that noted rich and aristocratic family, was chief stock holder. The financial trouble caused by tlm war of 1812 caused the failure of tins factory. In the old file of tho Ga zette of 1810 the factory property is ad vertised for sale. Thk Federal crop report for October indicates that the cotton crop will be smaller than that of last year, hut by how much it would be hazardous to pre dict from existing conditions. The crop is late, aud the chances are against a repetition of tho long and favoroble season that made the phenomenal yield of 1800. The country is in an excellent condition to stand a smaller production than that of last year, and as producers have been complaining of the very low prioes they will be well satisfied with a decreased crop. Ax organized effort is under way among the farmers to secure from con gress froo mail service in country towns. The Farmors’ Alliance, Patrons of Hus bandry and other orders aro canvassing tho matter. Letters aro being written to congressmen in favor of tho projoct, and petitions to congress for free deliv ery are being circulated in many parts of tlie country. The farmers assert that a daily mail delivery at the door will add perceptibly to tho money value of thoir farms, and will he worth still more bo- cause it will keep them in touch with tho markets and tho outside world and divest farm life of its isolation and mo notony. Farmers aro writing to tho ag ricultural press that this convenience would enable them rpiite generally to take a dally paper as well as to subscribe for tho local papers more liberally. Thk Pall Mali Gazette, referring to tlie appointment of Right lion. Arthur J. Balfour, chief secretary of Ireland, as first lord of tlie treasury, and, there fore, as conservative leader iu the House of Commons in succession to tlie Right Hon. William Henry Smith, says: “The appointment is no bad tiling for tho op position. Wo prefer to meet fighting men. It will be nothing hot a boon to tlie liberals to have opposed to thorn a man specially identified with coercion in its most defiant form.” A Kittle Fatherly Advice. “If ever you marry,” said an old gen tleman to his son, “lot it be a woman who has judgment enough to superin tend tlie getting of a meal, taste enough to dross herself, prfdo enough to wash her face, and sense enough to uso £>r. Pierce's Favorite Prescription whenever she needs it.” The experience of tlie aged has shown tlie “Favorite Presciip- tion" to be the best for tho cure of all female weaknesses and derangements. Good sense is shown by getting tho rem edy from, your druggist, and using It whenever you feel weak and debilitated. It will invigorate and cannot posaibly do harm. PROFESSIONAL CARDS qy A.
