The Survival of the Fittest.
WAYNESBORO,O.V., MAY 11, 188.1.
g.&r t lie Town prohibitory law
don’t pAflvibit very extensively.
Wo lmvo hoard littlool'tho
star route trials farce lately. We
suppose the matter will be indefi
nitely postponed.
If Senator lloynton failed to be
made governor lie can console him
self with bis luck in the possession of
a wife who has $50,000 in her own
right.
itr It is reported that slavery
still exists among the Indian tribes,
and the negroes are afraid to go into
Indian Territory, lost they should
be re-enslaved.
&r We have heard considera
ble about Postmaster-General Gres
ham being bis own “boss,” and bow
be was performing miracles in re
forming the mail service. There
is a line opening in this part of Ar
thur’s domain for him to put in a
lot of his good work.
0F Gov. Boynton was married
last Monday week to Miss Harris,
of Walton county. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. C. A. Evans,
assisted by Rev. G. A. Nunnally,
both of Atlanta. The bride is said
to be 45 years old and worth $50,000
in her own right. We congratulate
you, governor.

&r A German claims to have
invented a safe, which in addition
to the customary walls and doors of
steel, has an attachment that on be
ing touched, immediately flares an
electric light on the scene, and at
the same time uncovers a prepared
plate on which the burglar’s photo
graph is taken.
The Legislature met at 10 o’clock,
Wednesday morning, and promptly
organized with Senator Pollhill in
the chair as President of the Senate
pro tern. Governor Boynton sent
in a short message relating to the
only business which the Constitu
tion allowed them to transact du
ring this called session—the count
ing of tin' votes and the inaugura
tion of thi' governor elect.
At 12 o’clock, the Senate entered
the Representative hall, and after
the* appointment of three tellers, in
joint session proceeded to count the
votes, which numbered 25,(180—the
smallest vote ever cast for a gov
ernor of the State.
On Thursday morning at 10
o’clock, the’Legislature reconvened,
and at 11 o’clock the Senate again
entered the hall of Representat ives.
President of the Senate, Polldll, an
nounced that the General Assembly
was tin'll in joint session for the
purpose of inaugurating lion. Hen
ry D. McDaniel Governor of Geor
gia.
Governor McDaniel then entered,
leaning upon the arm of Governor
Boynton. Reaching the Speaker’s
stand Governor McDaniel deliv
ered his inaugural address, which
was short, pointed and appropriate.
Chief Justice Jackson then admin
istered the oath of office, after
which President Polhill committed
to him the Great Seal of the State,
and declared Henry D. McDaniel
Governor of Georgia.
The business being completed,
the Legislature adjourned to meet
again in July.
IT Is another place we publish
an account of the robbery of MaJ.
Wasson, a United States army pay
master, of $2-1,000. The robbery
statement was made by Wasson,
himself. It now turns out that he
was not robbed at all, but made the
statement to cover his short
accounts with the government.
St
mmm
fw The affairs of the Freed
man’s Bunko soon to be wound up.
The Comptroller of the Currency
announces that he will wind up the
business by declaring a final divi
dend of seven per cent. The de
positors who are living will get
(12 per cent, all told, of their depos
its. The Republican party is re
sponsible for this disgraceful swin
dle of the Southern negro.
IT Some of the prominent
^Northern Republican journals have
for some time past been engaged in
agitating and advocating the coloni
zation of the negroes in some Wes
tern territory. By this scheme it is
hoped to reduce Southern Repre
sentation in Congress, and at the
same time place the negro where
that party can control his vote and
swindle him with greater facility.
The visible supply of Ameri
can cotton in domestic and foreign
ports, is now nearly a half a million
balPs in excess of the visible supply
of the same description of cotton at
the same time last year, and the
weekly receipts are still as large
as the weekly consumption. This
makes it certain that the price of
the staple will range very low this
fall, and those farmers who are
expecting to pay for their supplies
with the poceeds of their cotton
crop, may yet wish they had taken
the advice of the newspapers, and
planted so as to have secured an
abundance of provisions.
ir Commissioner Raum, since
his retirement from the Internal
Revenue Bureau, has extensively
advertised himself as an attorney
to collect for manufacturers and
dealers in tobacco the rebate al
lowed by the new law. Senator
Vance, of North Carolina, warns the
tobacco men that if they employ
Raum for this service they will
gratuitously pay him large fees,—
lie says that no attorney will be
needed, as the government will
furnish blanks by tilling up which
the tobacco men can make their
own claims just as well as Raum
would do It, and with just as good
results.

vr The relations between the
United Htates and Great Britain, on
account of the late Irish American
Congress, held in Philadelphia, are
reported to wear uu unsettled ap
pearance, and have evidently been
the subject of a lively diplomatic
correspondence, England cannot
afford to make war upon the United
Htates, as that step would free Ire
land and lose lor North American
provinces. Ko far as the Irish
American Congress Is concerned, let
England remember that her tyr
anny has exiled more Irish to for
eign countries than Ireland now
contains, and each one of these and
their descendants stand ready to aid
the mother country at the first op
portunity that offers a chance for
success, England has adopted the
rope and the gallows to awe the
Irish into subjection; let the Irish
blow her into the Irish Hea with
dynamite or any other power that
will effect the purpose of destruc
tion, It Is but a fair offset.
