The Onuhx Convention. The con rent ion of the People’s party assembled at Omaha on July 2, and completed their work on July 6th. There were 1,776 delegates and the platform of principles were adopted and the candi dates nominated on July 4th, so that the entire affair wa» a sort of fourth of July celebration. Following i.t the platform : 1.

Crisp was unani mously renominated for Congress by the lVuiocralic convention of the Third District. A resolution was carried re questing Mr. Crisp to use every honora ble means to pass the Stewart silver bill. Mr. Warren lsdt’s name has been mentioned by several persons for legis lative honor*. Mr. I>»tt has had experi ence in that line and he would make a wise and conservative representative who would Ik* most acceptable to a large majority of the citizens of Ware county If Mr. I<ott will allow hi* name used, the Hkrald will enthusiastically dorse him. One of the beautiful results of protec tion is seen in the lockout of the work men at Carnegie’s Homestead works, near Pittsburg, because of their refusal to aeeept a reduction in wages. The works had U*en strongly barricaded and an effort was made to bring army of Pinkerton thugs, to guard the non-union workmen whom it wa signed to employ. The locked workmen took possession of the works and a battle ensued between them and the Pinkerton’s, the latter being eonsid* rrablv worsted. The Central’s Receivership, Mr. II. M. Comer was appointed Monday as sole receiver for the Central Railroad and Banking Co.

OUR MACON LETTER, Maoox, Ga., July—All lovers of amusement are in a delightful state of expectation at the announcement of Carmencita’s appearance on the 7th inst. That this famous Spanish dancer would give a performance in Macon was be yond the hopes of all, and the Academy of Music will be filled from pit to dome to see this wonder of the stage. Her dancing is said to be the perfection of graceful motion, and indiseribably fasci nating. Doubtless the opportunity of seeing this finished artist who has the power of putting her whole soul iuto her feet and whose toes are even eloquent, should l»e embraced if only to find wherein lies the gift to charm the mul titude. I-a»t week Father dc la Moriniere de livered a lecture ou Christian Chivalry, and paid a lieautiful and touching trib ute to Robt. E. Lee. The discourse was exquisite and not at all doctrinal; it was the same which he recently delivered in Augusta and Savannah. Notwithstand ing the fact that this gentleman is con sidered the finest orator in the State, the Academy of Music was only half filled. It is a deplorable and an unaccountable truth that lectures are not appreciated the South. We are a broad-minded and cultured people, yet we flock to see pantomime show, a circus or a danseuse, but an occasional lecturer meets with a half-filled house for an audience and the balance empty rhairs. iae Metropolitan, the new electric line, is an assured success, and is a source of pleasure to the stay-at-homes, enab ling them to take an airing five miles from the city and hack for ten cents. July 4th dawued bright, beautiful: hot. The streets are thronged with people in holiday attire. Everyone car ries a fan and ice-water and soda are in great demand. All business houses will close nt noon. The Macon Evening News of Wednes day last contained the following: “Miss Hattie Olenmn, a very beautiful and tal ented youug lady of Waycross, is in the city. She has had many attentions paid her since coming to the citv.” Klatch. SI. Mary's Dots. “The glorious fourth !” St. Mary's is very quiet to-day.

The Third Parly Plat form. Savannah News. There is nothing to be said aliout the Third party platform. The country U familiar with it. It is the platform that adopted at St. Louis last February with a few verbal changes, and the omis- of the plank that demands “that the government issue legal tender notes and pay the union soldier the difference between the price of the depreciated money in which he was paid and gold.” There were some who denied that this latter plank was a part of the .St. Louis platform, hut it was sent out by the Aa- riated Press as a part of it. It does t appear in the Omaha platform. It is noticeable that the platform has nothing to say aliout lessening the bur den of the tariff taxes, nor does it con tain any reference to the force bill. Its main features are demands that the coin age of silver shall be free, that there shall be an increase in the volume of the currency, that the currency shall be issued by the government without the ose of banking corporations at a tax to exceed 2 per cent, and that the gov ernment shall own the railroad, tele graph and telephone lines. Hie platform is not one that will stand discussion and Is not likely to meet with favor from any considerable number of people in any part of the country. The Appropriate Pet Name. Detroit Tribune. It will l»e found advantageous to select a good supply of pet names at the thres hold of married life. The following suggestion*, based upon the inexorable logic of history, may be found of value : Tootaey—Most properly applied to a an of forty-five with one eye, a large red nose and stiff black whiskers. Birdie—Not to be tolerated unless the bride weigh* orer 2ft0 jsiund* and ha* false teeth. Girlie — Refers exclusively to the fourth or the fifth-lime bride of thirty- eight summers and upward. Sweetness—A very choice epithet ap- plirahle to almost au\Laly whom the cold world would regard as any tiling bat sweet Ownicst Own -Finds great far.tr with husbands who have married a fortune. A formic Candidate. The patriotic action of the Chicago convention in unanimously nominating Grover Cleveland for president will be too hot. The melon crop seems scarce; very few of them have Iteen seen in town up to this date. There will l»e few peaches too, hut figs will be plentiful, I learn, •a* in abundance. There were two or three picuics last Thursday, the last day of June. The people seemed to feel as if the fourth had already come, judging from the way they seemed to enjoy themselves. Mr, Branch, the admired school aeher, has returned, and will open bool on Wednesday next. Rev. Mr. Porter, of Waycross, gave us smooth, lovely discourse Sunday even ing from the psalm: “The Lord is my Shepherd, 1 shall not want.” Plenty of young ladies in town, hut few young gentlemen to gallant them about; they will have to imjiort some! A sweet young lady from the “Magic City” is visiting some of her relati' near St. Mary’s. There is one fine garden, or small field of corn, in the town, in sight of tlie writer, indicative of industry.
