The South has still a yearning for Cleveland—which the treachery of Hill and Tammany only serves to accentu ate. Secretary Blaine had an attack of ver tigo in his office on Tuesday, a cause for rejoicing on the part of the Harriaon element. Owing to the continued illness of Speaker Crisp, McMillan, of Tennessee, was elected as Speaker pro'tern; opening the House on the 5th. The Democratic Frees throughout the South are pretty unanimously agreed that Senator Hill blundered in his recent ut- erancea at Albany regarding silver. John Sherman is again endorsed by a decided majority of his party in the Ohio Legislature Jbr United. States Sen ator. We consjjlet thia action a back ward step in the line of financial reform. By all means let Georgia be represent ed at the great World Fair. Mr*. W. H. Felton haa written a letter to Gov.

That right will not be inter fered with.—Thomasville Times-Enter prise. » set of Col. Livingston has presented resolutions to the House of Representa tive* by which he propose to investigate the present financial distress and to pre pare measures of relief. This demand for fair investigation is just and right and it ia hoped that good will result from it.

The first two have more than the necessary pajAlatioq,T>ut they would both be Democratic States. There’s the rub. The latter two are deficient in population, but are all right for the Re publicans. There’# the rub again.— Thomasville Times-Enterprise. Gadsen county produced over 1,250,- 000 pounds of tobacco this year, and a cigar factory in Quincy, the county seat of Gadsden, employs 200 hands, paying out over 1,200 weekly.. This crop said to have “lifted” more mortgages one year than cotton would have paid ofT ia twenty. It may be safely predicted that in let* than fire years tobacco, and not cotton, will be the main crop in this part of the State.—Jasper [Fla.] News. HEWS OF THE WEEK. Five hundred clerks in the Richmond Terminal in Atlanta were not paid off on the 1st of January, and arc in much anxiety about it. The Richmond A Dan ville muddle is impenetrable thus far. For many months the aflairs of the Richmond Terminal, that Giant Octopus, that has threatened to absorb the entire railroad system of the South East, have been the subject of daily comment by the press of the country. It waa generally conceded that the Directory of the Richmond Terminal held a power for good or evil to different sections of our Southland, hitherto known, and whether for good or evil the future alone could determine. The lease of the Central Road to the Terminal was considered by many a di rect menace to the prosperity of this section and to the interests of the stock holders of the Central system. None combatted this idea with more vigor the late Legislature than the Cal houn*, and yet they arc the first to toll of the iniquities of the Terminal Di rectors. Mr. Fat. Calhoun’s letter to the people ot Georgia, published in the Sunday’i papers make* the sensational charge that those who now control the Central tend to wreck it. The Richmond Terminal people, the other hand, claim that the Calhouns forced to sever their connection with the Terminal and Central on a< count of-exhorbitant detpands made for alleged services. >me time it has been evident that trouble was brewing in the Termi nal camp. The Thoinaa-Brice people have been at-outs with the Inman-Calhoun faction low on top. This means the re tirement of Inman from the Presidency at no distant date, and if what Mr. Cal houn says ia true, we may look for the iplendid Central property to become the shuttle-cock to the battle-doors of Wall Street The Calhouns can hardly avoid responsibility for this result The people of Georgia, through their last Legislature, desired to annul the contract between the Georgia Pacific and the Central, which gave the control of the latter road to the Richmond Termi nal, but Patrick Calhoun succeeded preventing such a result by assurances of good faith on the part of the Terminal people. He should have known and did know that the result which he now pre dicts was then a possibility, and his rank charges at this late date only add force to the opinion that the solicitude of the Calhouns for the people of Geor gia is born of a larger interest in their own ambitious aims. The leeqpQ of all this to the people of Georgia is {that when railroads cease to be operated as legitimate business enter prises by their legitimate owners, and are dragged into the arena of wild spec ulation, it is time for the people to assert their sovereignty and bring them back to their proper sphere of control. The Savannah Express robbers began their enforced labors in the Cole City mines Jan. 5th, DeLanghter for ten yean, J. M. Perkins for five yean.

Not being hydra-headed we hare not an as sortment of views to suit the varied tastes of a varied community.

The better class of the colored people stood by the Regular ticket, and the rag-tag and bob-tail element, after fail ing to convince the white people that their ticket was loyally Democratic and their colored brethren that it was as loy ally Republican, were given to under stand that their interference in munici pal matters was not wanted and would not be tolerated. In fact it was openly declared that at least three of the aspir ing leaden of the mob would have to walk straight henceforth or a change of residence would be recommended. < us hope that hereafter our school matters will not be dragged through the mire of ward polities by the hoodlum el- Rennlon of the Confederate Veterans. Waycross is to be honored on the 19th Inst.—the anniversary of the birth of the immortal Robert E. Lee — by a reunion of the Confederate Veterans of South Georgia. It is expected that not less than three hundred of these grand old soldiero whose deeds of valor have shed immortal lustre upon the American name, will be present. In addition the largest concourse of citizens ever seen in Waycross is expected to swell the number on this notable day. “The veterans are to be entertained by our citizens with a reception in opera house, where a most interesting program will be carried out. There will be appropriate music, an addret welcome and speeches from any of the old vets who feel inclined to talk.
