The Tresbyterian Assembly at Port land, Oregon, has sustained the appeal against the decision of tjje New York Presbytery in the matter o^the trial of Dr. Briggs for herrsy, and the trial will 9 now be put through on its merits. The Assembly of the Southern Pres byterian church closed Ua session at Hot Springs on Saturday last. At its Fri day's session the wine question was taken up, with a majority report for fermented grape juice for use in the sacrament, and a minority report for unfermented grape juice. Where are the Valdosta Videtts? We have heard frequent news from the neighborhood of that flourishing village that Waycroas was noted as an unheal thy place, yet.our Rifles were well to the man, and the Videtts evidently car ried with them the germs of malarial poison. The country is presented this week with the spectacle of a large percentage of the press of Georgia engaged in terminating from the face of the earth. Col. C. C. Post and his wife. They are accused of being atheists and anarchists, which they promptly deny. IW. Whitley, of Ihtuglasville, is their ac- ctuer and stands sponsor for the of “emissary of Satan" as applied to Mrs. Post. Has not the press of Georgia been trifle premature in thus assailing the character of Mrs. Post, however objec tionable her politics, on no more sub stantial ground than -the statement her avowed enemy 1 When Mrs. I*ost asserts that she and her husband are neither atheista nor archists we believe she speaks the truth, for we never heard of a man or woman who had lost faith in God ami was only too ready to avow whtdesome tenets. Mr*. Post only confesses to two counts in the indictment, she says she hi* made speeches against the Democratic party and she has not denied being a mental scientist. Until something more criminal than thia la prom* by Dr. Whitley we assert that the press is not justified in its viru lent attack on a woman’s character ! Is it undertaken as a religious wai only a political fight ? And whichever it h, will the crusade reflect any credit on Georgia journalism ? The editor of the HKftJU.n does not hold Col. Pott's political views, nor Mrs. Ptoat's peculiar convictions on spiritual matters, but as we would defend oar own liberty of conscience and thought, we make this little plea (or human justice to them. Let not the press engage in a spiritual lynch law, without even the semblance of a lair trial, when we are calling for judge and jury for even the meanest criminals. . feur Unt It la generally conceded that Way- ctoaa should tarnish the next representa tive from Ware in the Legislature. Col. L. A. Wilson, Dr. J. L. Walker. V. I*. Stanton and IV. W. Sharpe have been aaeutiooed. Anyone of these gentle men would nfmmt us worthily and well. Who shall it be? The Democratic Executive Committee wRl dquUlc*. order the selection of del- egatea some time in July and fix the time fbr the nominating convention to meet about August. Let the people begin to think about it. The Savannah Morning New* aspires to be the leading daily newspaper for all this aection, and yet in reading its repots from Gamp North en, ooe would have supposed the Savannah companies the only military there, scarcely any thing except of lo^al interest appearing therein. The hundreds of friends of the Waycroas Rifles who are readers of the Nears throughout this section, looked to its columns daily for some report of our gallant soldier boys, but in vain. Why they were thus ignored, whether from prrjudicr or envy, the Rifles standing second best and bidding Cur to become the best company in the State, is hard to tell. Certain it i* our hoys deserved better treatment at the han«l» of the News correspondent, and in future the manager of that able daily should see to it that our people aud section are treated with roorr consideration. The following from the Atlanta Constitution of Sunday is in striking contract with the narrow course of the New*: There are fifteen companie* in vamp. Among these the Waycros* Rifles have held a prominent |*Mitioo on account of their proficiency in military matters, and their jovial bou comradeship. It is to be greatly regretted that they are forced to shorten their atay in camp. They are granted leave of alisence to morrow l»y the Governor on account of irgent business calling them home. The Rifles stand second best of any company iu the State under imqiection of IJeutenant Satterlee. Captain J. Mel*. Farr commands this company and is very proud of the record they have made. The company his been organ ized only two years. Three times since their organization they have done val iant service for the State in suppressing riots in southwest < leorgia. The com pany numbers forty-three men, hut only twenty-nine have been ramp. Their quarters an* conspicuous for their neat appearance and general cleanliness. Just at the eritrance to their quarter* is dis played a very handsome flag of blue silk, displaying the coat of arms of Georgia, embroidered in gold. This flag was made and presented to them by Miss Wideman, the spousor of the company Fink District Smater. !

The Uaajt«r from Old Drink*. “In my opinion.’* said a physician, Ht is not so great a mistake to indulgo in cold drinks in warm weather as it is to drink them rapidly On a hot day it is almost inevitable that people should drink, and what the system seems to crave is something cold. IMtlint some thing could be a little less t&an ice cold it would be so much the better. But it is practically ont of the question to get a drink of a temperature of 40 or 40 degs. say. which is about as cold as is neces sary Iu order to meet the demands of nature. **So, then, ice cold drinks are "likely to remain a .permanency, and thousands and thousands of people will continue to drink them Now. what l should advise is. that they perform the operation with some del iteration.

A dehjierate struggle ensued, in which the doctor, from loss of blood and strength, became unconscious. In an inside pocket of his coat the doctor car ried a small medicine case. Daring the straggle this fell out and attracted the attention of the cat. which began to claw it and tear it with Us teeth.
