FOB BATIFiOTiON,
FOR THE HOMESTEAD OF 1877,

For Senator, 11th District,
HON. J. T. O L_ A R K,
OF RANDOLPH.
For Representative, Terrell County,
HON. ELI G. HILL.
The aiiiprovemenl ol iliv Flint
Hirer.
We notice that a cit'z-m of B iker
county has writteu to the Hon W. E.
Smith to secure an appropriation from
congress for cleaning out Flint liver,
anil that, in response, Mr. Smi h has
intioduced a bill appropriating §25.-
000 for that purpose.
Well, if the Flint ri'.or were cleared
of obstructions so as to be made navi
gat.le fioni Albany down to Bain
bridge ns it is from Bainbridge to its
month, it would doubtless Le a great
convenience to those liviogon and n> ar
its hanks, as a means of local transpor
tation. It cuu’d never be of much iur
por'ance as a through toute, by way
of the Apalachicola river and the gulf
of Mexico, to market, hut, ns an open
and constant menace to the laihoads,
it might keep down their lates and
thus, indirectly, be a benefit to all of
Mr. Smith’s immediate constituents.
But, from past experience, tve have
verylitile hope ol any beneficial results
from these small appropriations for
small rivers.
R. H, Whitelev, during his last term
in congress, secured, it we remember
rightly, an appropriation of §35 000
for cleaning out the Chattahoochee j
and Flint rivers. Shortly afterwards,'
a small band of engineers, or United
States officials of some sort, came
alorg with chains and poles and frol
icked along the hanks of the “Classic
Thronateska” for a whip, and that
was the last we heard of it. The only
“obstruction” that they removed from
anywhere about the river, so far as we
have heaid, war in the shape of a dis
reputably red-headed wench that they
carried off from its banksnear the city
of Buinbridge. We wonder if it took
all cf Whiteley’s §35.000 dollars te
pay for that little “survey,” and if it
will take all of Mr. Smith’s §25 000 tu
pay for another one. If some plan
can’t be devised by which it cuu be 1
nr&de to do some good after it is ap-j
pronriate.l, we think that litt'e §25 000
bad as well stay in the United States
treasury. We may be wrong in this
matter; if so, we respectfully ask for
a little enlightenment cn thejsubject*
Can’t some editor down en the banks
of the river tell us what became of j
thi §35.000 appropriated five or six
yea r s ago?
Itlr. Fcllou’s Speech in i'oiigrcM
It is net very often that we hear
anything from a Georgian, in the Uni
ted States Congress, though we have
a few very able men in that august
body, but the lion, W. ll,Felton made
a spei ch in ‘he,House,a fe w days ago,
on one of the many phases of the
great financial problem, that created a
sensation. Ilis speech was not argu
irentive, after the manner of those
made by the Hon. I’ig—iron Keiley,
but. as a polished, elegant, eloquent
and petuliary southern array and pre
sentment of high and glittering gen
eralities, and an energetic, vigorous
and lighning-'ike propulsion of sharp
pointed, bitter and scathing invectives
against the ranks of his opponents, it
was a inngnifficently successful eff.it j
It is the fir.-t time wo have livuxl
from Mr. Fulton, in a long iiino, and
we opine that few of those who do
not know him, ever imagined that
such a homely man could handle red
hot English so deftly.
Mr. Bell, a’-ao made a speech, on
the same day, which is highly com
mended, but which wo have not seer •
The Fiislcrti Uar,
The tide of fortune seems to have
turned in favor ot thcEus-i ins at last,
and the poor Turks a re getting the worst
of it. After many unsuccessful (di nts
in which they suffered heavy losses,
tie Russians, on last Batnfday night,
succeeded in capturing Kars. This
is considered an important success
and is probably the beginning of the
end.
Gin Toombs made a iqieeoh, i,--
Cartersville, a few days ago in Uvur
of ratification of the new constitute >n
and Atlanta as the capital. It is said
that be w:'l visit Southwest G. orgia

Thai Humbug Again.
Two weeks ago, we published an ex
tract fom'the N"w York Sun,denoun
cing one Dr. J C. Stone, of Philadel
phia, who advertises a remedy fur the
cure of i or.sumption us a fraud, and
his advertisement as a prinui facte hum
bug. Be'ow we copy Jr- in the Sun
another paragraph in regard to the
exposure of a swindler whom we sup
pose to l o this same “Dr. Slone. His
swindling advertisement is in nearly
every paper that comes to our office.
He tried to get it iu ours but failed.
By the way, the New York Sun after
denouncing Slone ami his advenise
ment, publishes id its weekly edition
the same swiudiisg announcement for
one “\Y. W. Sherai” of Rochester,
New York. Verily, “They a 1 do it,”
when paid for it.
This from the Sun of Nov. lGth.—
One of the swindlers who advertise re
medies for consumption bee of cost,
but wish pretended disinterestedness
offer to s> nd die ingredient i for §3, has
been exposed in Philadelphia His room
was littered with letters that had en
closed money, and two women weie
hard at work gefr’lg circulars and
packages ot the nos rum ready for the
mail. The peculiar wickedness ot this
swi-dle lay iu the character of the
mixture sent, of which a physician
said: “This wonderful remedy is virtu
ally hasheesh, tire primary effect of
which is exhilarating, hut its continu
ed use is bi'tlily injurious and debilitat
ing. The system ot a weakly patient
once f.ccus ouit and to its use must have
it, or, ceasing to use it will rapidly fail.
In Dili l winds, its habitual use is al
most, if not quite, as precocious as the
opium habit.”
We regie: to announce that C"!. H.
II Jones, of the Macon Ttlegraph and
J[esgenger was not nominated for repre
sentative, in that county, at the prima
ry auction on last Saturday. He re
ceived a flattering voie tiut not qui’e
enough to nominate. The ('ol. :s a
man of strong letiings and prejudices,
but his inf* grity and ability are un
doubted. We would have been much
gratifi ul if he had been nominated.
Wendell Philips, the great New En
gland orator and philosopher, whom,
long n >o, we used to hear spout radi
calism and abolitionism in the halls
and on the comm ins ol Bos on, says
the dermic: atio victory, in Pennsyl
vania “sett es the question that the
solid south will eventually rule the
Union, as il did befoie the war.” So
mote it be.

With this number, we place at our
mast-head the name of Cor.. E. C.
Bower, ol Early, as the democratic
nominee fin Senator from the 9th
Benatoiinl district. The c rcurnst rices
connected with tlie nomination of Col,
Bower are too well known to the peo
ple of this county to require a repeti
tion here. Suffice it to say, that Ba
ker and Calhoun did not co-operate
with Early in her efforts to place a
suitable man in tho field as a candi
date lor the sufl, ages of the people.—
According to the schedule ol rotation,
adoptei by the leading men of the
district, assembled in convention, prior
to the fitst election succeeding the late
war, the right to name the man be
longed to Early. Tins she has done.
A man in every p rticular worthy of
the solid support of the democracy of
the 9th Senatorial district has been
nominated. Baker county lm- very
properly ratified and endorsed the ac
tion of Early. Calhoun, alone, has
lemnined silent. Representatives, as
we try lo be, of the wishes of the
democrat!:: party of our county, we
have waited patiently for their, to take
some steps in thin matter, but for some
reason, unknown to us, they have
failed to Jo so; and yer, we honestly
believe that a majority of Calhoun’s
democracy favor the candidacy of Col
Bower, and will give him their earn
est support. Believing this, and feel
ing confident that the best inteiests of
the democratic party, and tbe best in
terests of the 9th Senatorial district
will be carefully and conscientiously
guarded, if placed in his h inds, we
gladly raise his name before the peo
ple, and solicit for him their cordial
and unanimous support, We willi g
ly pledge him our humble support
and should any opposition arise, will
do all in onr powei to secure his elec
tion.

M dniglit burg'ars are still on the
ramprigo in this community. On the
night of the lGth inst., they effected
an entrance to the drug store belong

therefrom, sundry articles amounting,
in value, to between fifteen and twenty
dollars. No cue as yet to the where

that all the paregoric, soothing syrup,
etc., known to the medical world is

Delightful Pa hty. —Mr Simon
Wooten and his excellent lady treated
the young people in their neighbor
hood to au elegant party on the eveu
ing of the 13th inst. We were not
fortunate e: ongh to he present, but
we are informed that there was a large
number of the young people present
and that they enjoyed hemselves
hugely. They tripped the, “light fan
tastic,” until a Vi ry lute hour, and de
parted lighthearted and gay. Some
of tlie thoughtful ones have requested
us to thank Mr. Wooten and his la
lady for the priveiiges of the even
ing, and e'press the hope, tiiat a re
petition of the same may soon occur.
Thk Situation.— From present indi
cations, we are led to believe thsi our
sister county, Baker is likely to have
some trouble in her representative
election. The gallant ckmourncy of
that county tias heretofore been quite
suuees-fui in carry rig things pretty
much their own way, but if the discard
and dissension which now exist in
their ranks is allowed to remain, we
fear that matters wi 1 assume another
sir ape a together, and the election re
sult quite different from what we
might hope for. We learn that they
havo held two meetings for tfre pur
pose of nominating a candidate to rep
resent the county in the legislature,
but adjourned both times without
making a choice, and we hear it ru
mored that a s: rub race ts very ap
pareif. George Bivens, of the col- j
ord way of wrapping iiis hair, has al
ready declared himself a candidate,s
and svo a e to!J tiiat the negroes are
rallying to his support with an inflexi- |
ble'due'imiua'.ion to elect him if possi
ble. " W e sou'od t *ia as a no’e ol warn
ing to our Baker hie ink, and hope,
that they may yet harmonize enungh
to centie up'itr some good man for the',
position -almve mentioned. We
glad to know that Baker, has ratified - !
Early’s actions in regard to a Sena'or, i
and that the County is almost a unit for i
Bower Now f t Calhoun go aid do I
likewise, and CM Bower’s ehtUon is!
a foiegouu conclusion.'

In Memory of Mrs. Laura HohsEly,

She lived the life of a Christian, and
under all circumstances performed
her part well, leaving nothing undone
that was in tier power to do in the
advancement of good. And w hereas,
on the 13th day ol October, 1877, it
pleased our Heavenly Fart er, the giv
