As a correspondent to aodttier ootumn says, "Turn on flic light.” BRING OUT THE FACTS. In the boat of oooffiat at too last meeting of too oi/ty council, too pro- oowllngs of which were reported In yes terday'* Telegraph, certain very se rious charges wore mnde, which do- serve prompt and thorough investiga tion. Alilwmnn Yon baaed bis opposition to the revolution oauveir.ug the Ba- nliluskl Ucenso ou too ground that other offeudevs against too liquor laws wor« allowed to go unpunished. It too latanMbe on which Mr. Van based hla action in opposing too reso lution was definite enough to Justify him In tost course, It must aK> ho definite enough to teouxo too convic tion and punishment of too men ho says have been violating the law. Mr. Van, therefore, dust nuke a valuable wttneos before too grand Jury, and wo hopo that tf&t l>ody wiU promptly se cure from him the tnfomutlou M0M> aary to enforce too law.

On Its face, this dtHkNOM looks about as bad os It could. It looks like an alli ance between -too law breaking ele ment and too authorizes whose duty It Is to proved Infix dims of tbo aw. Tbo charge was so vague that It did - not specify toe offending official, a • <1 toe reply of tile chief of police does not fix the responsibility. The matter ought not to be allowed to rest here. It wa have hi our city a reposition «t toe motooda wCoh bare brought toe poiboe department of Now York Into disgrace. wo ought to know It. We bare unhappily stiffens! la Mncou from AN IMMIGRATION CONVENTION. Our Vootl ookrona yesterday con- mined a report of the not on taken by the M<u»n AdvertMng and Information Bureau at ha teat meriting. Art this meriting a moveuicut was Inaugurated which, If pnopurly supported, we think la sure do hare 'beneficial results not cwfy for Macon, but for toe whole state. We refor m toe nfiototion call ing sa Imtaigrattloo amvcmion in this a ty. The plan far this convention has no* yat been frilly perfeoted, but the general Idol Is tout there stall be one delegate from each ootinty snd two from each congressional district, too latter appoluied by too governor, and too* this convention shall take Into consideration toe beat pfaatt cable merit- ods of inducing luinrlgntichm of «be right sort from toe Northern and West ern atalteu and from Europe. The movement, In our opinion, Is timely. There has been no period tn our history when the effort to draw i mm .grants to this section was more likely to bo successful. Though w« Lave hard tomes, toe South has gone through the panto with less dlstreae to Its people -than any other seailon ot tlie oaitntry. Price* are low, hut •-*. has been blessed with enormous crops; We should toko advantage of the dis content tvlt'a'i itoa hard aoudl-Uous ot uLStcoce la the Northwestern and Northern siutat have orented In tboso regions. There are thousands of men living in those sections who have oewna to recognize 'too fsett that toe chance for suocess there Is very small, and who could be Induced tio come to too South if thoy were give* to pnderstaud the real advatoUgcs of this section, Tlio South has a great deal to gain by turning Hhmgrojtiou this svn-y. Tho streams of pewpto from Europe and from too Huttem stoles have in a few years created in too Wo# a populous and Immensely wenhtby empire. Tho South, during too same years, has In creased in wealth uud populanum ivitli ooiupurotlvw slowness. The same lm- inlgiuCon which has lundo too Wert rich will moke tho South rich If turned Uils way. On account of iho peculiar conditions winch exist in this section, it Is net desirable thus raw hit mi- grariis from Europe, espeoially from soiithem Europe, ontfrely uraaotiuainred with our institutions and with the pe culiar oomULoas in the South, should bo ouooar-igwl to come here In very great nutnbera.

A HAD POLICY. The other day, hi commenting on certain remarks of tho Amcricus Ttmos-Rcoonlor, tho Telegraph as sumed iSm-t Itat paper would bo pleased If Mr. David B.

Wo pirod yullfy to tho charge of having for tod moment forgJhen Uut our con tevttpoRity had committed Itself to a ticket <a which Mr. Hill's name does not sppssr. But avo oanoot agree with too reu son-i-ag by which our contemporary seeks to make it appear that Mr. Ste venson Is too proper man to bo the Democratic candidate tn 1SDQ. It says: “S«n«.ter HUl la a better Democrat tn all probability than any other man north ot too Potomac, but ht Isn't our sort ot Democrat- His constituents Interest* arc diverse from ours, snd If he filled too me sure ot Democracy according to too Stevenson or Crisp standard ho couldn't carry a single election precinct tn ton whole state of New York for any office from balUff to president. The Democratic party must do away with tho Eastern Idea and look to the West and the South for their candidates Senator Hlfi (eo- crapblcal situation eliminates him from t^ie race In iSX. no leas than his lack ot harmony wlrh the doctrines ot whi left of the Democratic party In the South and the Unloii. Senator Hill's kind of Democracy, while as good ss could he expected north of the Potomac, doesn’t come up to our standard, and the man that sutta us of toe South couldn't com. mand a corporal's ruard of votes In that 1 section where protection ond xoldhog* eery constitute the sum total ot politics held equally by Democrat and Republi can.'' We think this bad ramonlng la favor of a bad policy. KSs country las suf fered during toe last thirty yean from no cause so much ns from sectional feeltDg. During that time toe utot has grown strong in too minds of public men tout it is their duty to legislate, not for the general Intercut, but for toe particular Interest of their section. The congressman or toe senator re gards himself, oo* as a law maker ot toe United States, but as a law maker for toe particular seotlon from which be oranes. The Republican party, dur ing most of that time In the ascend ancy, snd drawing its strength from the North and Went, has therefore leg Istated purely in the Interest of those sections. It was oot a national parly. In making laws it did not consider toe effect ot those laws on the country as a whole, but thought of nothing ex cept too beoefft to the North and West 1* legislated to protect and cre ate monopolies, because those monop olies had their sent In those sections. In every other possible direction It was oootroUed by toe same considerations. If tlio proposed law tended to take money from toe South, and give it to tho North, too* woa not an objection to too eyes of these legislators, but a recommcndabloQ ot overwhelming weight If we understand tho Recorder cor rectly, it proposes that tola sp’rit shall guide the policy of toe DemocrMlo party; ffiut too Democratic party, la Us tarn, shall seek to consolidate the South and West in order that they muy legislate » take money from toe North and East We consider tois, as wo have said, bod policy. We have regarded It ns toe misUon o>f too Dem ocratic party to restore to lcgniation its national dUaraater, and tots can bo done only by giving wught and oana.der.ng prcpoaltiona of legisla tion only to tho quearion whether the offoat will be good for the whole coun try qnd Is Jiut. There Is no pixa.blo basis for truly rraittoixil legsktnon ex cept Justice. Tho tariff law which protects cannot be Just because tho prodls which It nlll confer upon ono industry or one section must be taken from other Industries and other sec tions. Bo In financial lc-gdlation. The low which Is Intended to relievo debt ors partially of the obligation of then contracts, because the West and South are the debtor sections, will-be in ac cordance with too name vicious prac tices that caused too country to ret volt against tlio RjetpubQloan party in 1800 and 1802. We -uuy be sure that If tho country understands that this prinoipCe Is t» bo adopted by me Dem ocrulo party-if too party; Is to be come “sectional Instead of national ;n chariiater-ithoit It will never oe' given a vote of confidence. It vyiH lose in ctaraotor without gaining,* power. In our opinion, It unroot sulfite such a change ot character, but , will dasapt pear from too arena of Amettoan poli ties. But If, on too contrary, It it t-ltoful to Its prtnctplee, if n remuius too faithful reprcsemu-tlvo .of thoso who demand -that legitCatlou shall oarofully seek to do Justice to all nut| confer epoch! favors upon none, toon U may suffer defeat, but it will never die; It will bo Just as ImWvoi os tho lovo of Justice Is immortal in toe hearts of men. - « ' elected by toe people; bale want our wnoto Juaiclaj sycoa-a ensngea to wcac is itnown as uie rocacog Bystem. wnen wo need have no tear o-r wno-r uie coro- truuee says would a great danger—mat Is, one Judge would oe lenien't with criminals to get utem to vote ior them.

Why should we pay the expenses ot toe legislature tor two or three weeks to do the fame thing that we can do In one day without 1* costing the state A cent? The way tjte Judges are elect ed now Is a disgrace to the Bate. It Is done entirely by trading politicians. It makes no difference how unpopular O Judge may be in his district, he can be elected over 'the people's protest I hope that this legislature will carry out toe wishes of the people, as the taat election proves to us that we have no clach on thie'affairs of this stake.

NOT A “SOREHEAD.’ PuhUcutiona made recently w-tro ap parently Intended to convey too lm prosston that Col. Leveret*, because of too loss of hi offleo of United States inarrJi.il, had become a "sorehead''—« disgruntled Democrat, disposed to fight too administration and to wreak ven geance on persons who. It was tnslu united, had brought about his removal for political reasons. Nothing could bo further froth tho truth. OoL Leverott is now, as ho has always been, a straightforward, fight- tog Democrat, and though be thinks that ho has been grossly wronged in being denied a hearing, ho Is not for that reason going around cursing toe president or' nnybody else. Ho Is per tevilly wining to stand on his record as a Democrat before ho took the office and on too results ot Ills administra tion after he <JM rako It All ha asks now is that too fhots of bis administra tion bo brought out in a hearing that Is ocrraCn, to vlndicaxe him. Speaking yesterday of toe publlardons which had been made In reference to toe sen- atorshlp as affected by his remoral from office, ho raid that ho saw no connection whatever between too two; that the newspaper writers who had tried to ontivey toe Impression that such a connection existed wore either mtsluftirmed or had a motive of their own. His own positon, ho said, vnas well known, and he had not toe toast objection to orating it now and at any other time. He had been Gen. Gordon's friend for years and would continue to be. Gon. Gordon bad been friend, snd two years from now and In toe nuMutlme. ho would do what ho could to securo Gen. Gordon's ro- election. If that gentleman deervd elec tion.

Monroe Advertiser: If there Is nny one public duty of which the suffra gists of this country have become tired It la that of attending upon the mul tiplicity of elections held in Georgia In order to choose their public serv ants. The Idea of consolidating the elec tions fs not new to the Advertiser. Believing It to be a wise policy we ad vocated It years ago. We have given the subject some thought, and If there be valid reasons against having fewer elections 1h this state, we have been, thus far. to discover them. It may be. perhaps, the wisest policy not to mix the national, state and coun ty elections in the same spot, lest the results obtaining therefrom might not be the most wholesome. We belong to that class of state rights thinkers who have never, and who do not mink It the safest policy tor national affairs to meddle too closely with state affairs. However, a wise election law might set up a barrier sufficient to suppress any evil results likely to grow out of a combination of national and state elections. But we can see no wise statesmanship nor wise policy In hav ing the state and county elections sep arate and thereby annoy the voter with attendance upon two elections when one could accomplish the same result. The first iweek In January, the time at which county elections are now held, to the most opportune ‘time of the year ah which an: election can he held. This is specially true when we consider the environments of the large class of laborers of this coun try. Indeed there Is common sense In hav ing the state and county elections, at least, consolidated and held on the same day. Attaching to every elec tion Is more or less demoralisation among some voters and certainly too much political pow-wowlrig; and the fewer elections we have the less of these things that brood no good will we have. Hence, While the legisla ture Is considering election reforms, the members thereof Should give the matter of consolidating elections their serious consideration. , CHEAPER TO BUY IT.

A Sumter County Man Who Will Buy His Cotton In the Future. Americus. Nov. 21.—The Tlmee-Be- corder prints the following, which is a timely hint to farmers: One of Sumter’s best and hitherto most successful Planters was talking about the low price of cotton yester day. and rather surprised his audience by declaring that next year he will buy Ms cotton crop instead of planting and gathering it as in the past. He will buy October contracts, put ting aside a goodly sum with which to keep up the business, and expects to realise as least as much as from the crop lust gathered and sold at 4 1-2 and 5 cents. But the best feature of Ms plan is that he will plant his entire farm In com, oats, peas amd potatoes, and. will raise every pound of meat that it will take to run the place. If he will stick to this proposition he Is bound to suo- ceed, oo 'matter how his cotton pur chase pans out. 1 The Rome.

Tho ail ego l.brary. of Primcdton has received from a prominent alumnus, whose name Is withheld, a fine me diaeval manuscript of Terence. This manuscript oonslsts of ICG leaves, partly of parchment and partly of pa per. The text is written throughout In one hand, in clear masculine letters, In black ink. The names of the char acters In fho play are regularly written in red. Tho test Is oonrplote for the six plays, and the manuscript Is dated, wliloh Is unusual. On tlie flisft page Is a fine lllnmlu- aited capital, nnd fn .thB earlier part ot die book there are a good many pic tures and deconnifivo figures. IVhllo the test is completo from end to end, the rod lotifera for the diameters in tho plays are only partly filled In. Whore they aro not filled In, there are little black letters Dor the diameters. The Band of the expositor is visible in many places In a small brownish writing be tween the lines of the text Tho whole manuscript Is prefaced by an epigram of six lines, wh'idi Is hdadod: “H^Mhaphluin Therenoil.” At tho end is a laitf.n note which, trans lated, runs as fof.l«ws: "This Terence belongs to John cf Santanco, licentiate In law, art Salines In Burgundy, and ho had it mnde fa the city of Pavla, tn the year of our Lord 1402, while he himself was slaying art Pavia, In tlio house of Master George do Forils, and I gave BO ducats of gold.
