Augusta News: The large and hand some silk banner which Georgia won from Texas in 1870 forgiving the largest majority for the Democracy will have to be sent elsewhere. Kentucky claims it but we suggest that tho banner be sent to noble old New Jersey, as she alone of all the Northern States, had the courage and good sense to go Democratic in the late election. Let New Jersey have the ban ner by all means. Atlanta Pont: n. T. Reagan, who was sent to the penitentiary from Spal ding county, was shot and killed by bis guard a few days since. Ileagan frequent ly bad attacks of epilepsy, caused from a wound in the forehead received during the late war, and having one of those fits attempted violence to the guard, who to protect his own life had to shoot Reagan This frightful tragedy is the last act in completely wrecking a once happy house hold. Reagan was in a similar frenzy when Hunt Shannon attacked him, at whom he shot. This sent him to the chain gang. A week ago the poor fellow’s wife died, and now ne lira gone to join her. Altogether it is one of the saddest cases ever recorded in Georgia history. Reagan was a fanner of respectabillty near Griffin, and bas always been consid ered a gentleman by those who knew him. Savannah Netos: Saturday afternoon about eighty of tlie negroes who struck for higher wages at the Lower cotton press on Wednesday last, and who were discharged and their places filled, assembled at the press at the paying-off hour to demand their wages.

The negroes were notified that tliey could not be paid at present, as their lime bad uot been fuilr made up. but tliat they would receive their money some time next week; that employment would be given them if they would return to work on Monday, but tber stated they would not do so at tbe present wages. No attempt at a disturbance was made, however, and about 7 o’clock tbe crowd of colored people quietly dispersed. Waycross lXeptorler: It Is said that Collins bas gone on another pilgrimage to New York. This time for quite a differ ent purpose from that before, the election. -He doesn’t go for campaign money, but to render an account of his stewardship, and as we predicted, he is going to have pretty hard work to conviuce that central campaign committee that he ever ran for Congress. Wonder what argument he is going to nse to prove that he made tlie race—the votes liegot will certainly be very poor ones on bis side of tlie question. But, nevertheless, he must give an ac count. Dublin Gazelle: Last spring, a lady In this county was peeling potatoes for cook, ing purposes. A11 old negro standing by picked up three of the peelings and said he intended planting them; nothing more was thought of it until a few days since, when Jim informed Mr. Sauls, with whom he was working, tliat the three peelings had made three bushels of fine yarn pota toes, and be has them now for anyone to see for themselves. - Rome Tribune: One of tho beauties and charmsf?) of an editor’s life consists in his “ dead-lieadiug” it on all occasions. One who has never tasted the sweets of that bliss, cannot begin to take iu tlie glory and happiness experienced by tlie editor in dead-heading. Forinstance, he docs one hundred dollars’ worth of adver Using for a railroad company and gets pass for a year, rides tlie value of a few dollars, if he rides at all, and then lie is looked upon by tbe conductor as a tramp or dead-beat. * He pulls a concert troupe ten dollars’worth, gets a one dollar seat, and is tiius passed “free.” He blows aud pufis a church festival, docs the handbill printing at half rates and gets a “thank you” for it; it is at tributed as part of his duty as an editor, ami then the paper “has to be filled up with something,” you know. At) aditor does more for a town and community than all the rest of tbe population put together, and gets—curses for it, while, in many in stances, where a man donates a few dol lars for tbe fourth of July, a base ball club or a church, be is gratefully remem bered, and his name is Lauded down to coming geuerations. In fact, “dead-head ing” is something of a nuisance that ought to be done away with, and if the rule of “pay for what you get” was adopted tbe newspapers would be vastlv tbe gainers. Fon tbe past two weeks, the Atlanta Constitution has been literally filled with certificates of good character of the mul titudinous candidates for office before the General Assembly. It beats any patent medicine advertisement .we ever saw. There most be millions In it.' To get even, the Post-Appeal conies out wKh a column of certificates sustaining its own good character.

Dentil of Mr. Mrereell Holt Sunday morning Judge T- G. Holt re ceived from Chicago tbe melancholy news that his sod, Russell, well known in this city, was upon the ill-fated steamer Alpena when It went down in Lake Mich igan, on the 16th day of October, with all on board. Tbe intelligence came from a friend of the unfortunate young man, and was tlie first to reach tbe family in thfs city, although twenty-three days had passed since the accident occurred. The facts which surround the death of Rusaell Holt present a singular array of happenings bearing one upon the other, and lead to his watery grave like a’path marked out by an evil fate. He was iu business in this city up to the time of tbe Masonic conclave iu Chicago last August, but accompanied his father upon tbe ex- enrsontotbat city. Possessed of a fancy for shipping and the sea he spent consid erable time in tbe neighborhood of the many wharves and vessels which are to be found in Chicago. Although offered a good position in a counting house, he preferred tlie water, and having made the acquaintance of a young gentleman running upon tlie steam er Muskegon, with his assistance he also obtained a position upon the same boat. It was from tuis young companion that the news came to Judge Holt yesterday morning. It seems that a warm friend ship sprung up between the two .young meu, and an intercourse which was unin terrupted until business called the last' .named to Buffalo. While bis friend was absent, unknown to him, Mr. Holt ob tained a transfer to the Alpena, a com panion vessel of the same line, and run ning to tlie same points. When this Chicago friend returned and tyeijt upon tlje Muskegon, he was infortn ed that Mr. Holt had been transferred to tlie 4 ] ponn, and had gone Ujftrn his first trip. Expecting to meet him at some stopping point, and hoping to persuade him to return to the Muskegon, lie starred upon the journey. They never met again Saturday on the lake the two vessels, sighted,, hailed, passed each other anil plunged info the. darfcfoss beyond, one to the safe port, bearing its living cargo to happy homes and loving wel comes; the other into the arms of a mighty tempest, where waves should beat upon the vessel and draw down into eternity the seventy souls tliat were gathered with in her cabins. Upon the latter vessel stood Russell Holt. This is all tliat is known. His friend hesitated for days and weeks, but finally yielded to a sense of duty, and in p. most beautiful letter to Judge Holt, revealed tho sad fate of bis son. Abrupt as was the intelligence, it did not corno altogether unexpectedly. Tlie long time that had elapsed since the last letter was written home, together with the expressed inten tion of going on the Alpena, awoke in the family here fears for tho young man’s safety. But the blow, nevertheless, was crushing, and tbe family are now in tlie deepest distress over tlie sad aTate of the only son. We can bnt extend to them our deepest sympathies. There is, no hope. , The New York Herald of October 20tli bas tlie following concerning tbe disaster to the Alpena: re' ’ r ‘ “There to new w longer any rtMon to doubt the total loss, with all .011 board, of tbe passenger steamer 'Alpcua, of the Goodrich Line, which has l'er many years plied between Chicago and various ports on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. It left tlie dock at Muskegon last Friday evening, October 15ili, and should have made her dock at Rush street, Chicago, on the morning of tho 10th. “Iu accordance with her invariable cus tom, the Alpena touched at Grand Haven ou Friday and wok ou a few passengers and some freight, cloariug from that port at nine o’clock p. ui. She was next sight ed by the steamer Muskegon, also ol tlie Goodrich Line, about midway the lake, Saturday morning, show ing that the vessel had proceeded thus tar without accident or delay. The weather was warm and fine, the lake was smooth, and all on board anticipated a pleasant trip. • • • To-day, for tbe first time, tlie owners of the Alpena give her up, and acknowledge that there is no chance that she inay yet be beard from. Every pointon Lake Michigan wluch tlie disabled steamer could have reached for refuge from the awful storm, which came up with phenomenal suddenness about three o’clock Sunday evening, has been reached by telegraph, and still no word of the Alpeua. Ou the contrary, pieces of her cabin, her piano and other wreckage were found tiiis morning on tlie beach one mile north of Jlollaud, Michigan, while north of Grand Haven, a large amount of the Alpena’s freight lias drifted ashore. At a late hour to nigiit no intelli gence has been received iroiu any pttsseu- ;er or crew, and it is thought that 110 one has survived to recite the story of how the steamer was dashed in pieces by tlie furi- o;t| wares and finally went down. All hope that tbe Alpena might have found shelter among the Mauitou islands is dis sipated by the arrival of tlie propeller, Wissahickon, at Milwaukee this morning with tho intelligence tliat the Alpena had not been seen at Maniton. • • • The Associated Press agent at Holland, Michi gan, reports: Have been to tlie shore and along Hie beach lor a distance of five miles; find large quauUties of apples, headings and other freight, also portions of the upper deck, stanchions and rail, gang-planks and hatches, and one door panel with the name Alpena upon it; also two life preservers, an oar, and a chair marked steamer Alpena. A - piano came ashore during the night, which is recoguized by tbe agent of the Greenwich Line from Grand JIavcn, as belonging to the Alpena, morning, and lias been recognized as tliat Of Mrs. Bradley, who, with her two daughters, i.fid been stopping at Grand JIaveu during the summer, ana wiro ou tbeir way to New Mexico. “Twelve miles south of Grand Ilavcn, the body of a boy nine years old also came ashore.” In addition to the wreckage dcscrioed, the trunk of the stewardess afterwards came ashore nfiar Grand Haven. Wsldsfsp tire Wrong- Boy. Sunday night Mr. Each Rogers, who lives out on the turnpike road In the neighborhood of Giles’ store, went off to church, leaving the bouse and little daughter in care of his so if Johnny, aged abour thirteen years. Johnny went to sleep, but was awakened by tbe noise of some one trying to force tbe kitchen latch The latch broke, but the burglar failed to get the door open. He tbr n tried a win dow, and finally came upon the porch of the house. Johnny thought this was about time to interfere, and throwing open window be stepped out on tbe porch also, revolver In hand, and as tbe baffled bur glar made a]rapld retreat, fired three shots at him. * f Tbe man was evidently struck, for he cried oat loud enough to be beard by the neighbors, who immediately earn! to the rescue of our little marksman. > Johnny was ealm through It aH, and did not until the mau had passed beyond the Ihie of a neighbor’s window. When Mr. Rodgers returned, which be did a few minutes after, he found the bo? standing out doors iu his night clothing, relating the affair to a group. In reply to an in quiry whether or uot be was frightened be replied, “No, but I am pretty cold.” This appears to be a case where the wrong boy was disturbed, burglariously speak- ftrr. mSSSS Mr. James C. Shaw, the popular travel ing passenger agent of the Central rail road, was married last night to Miss Clara D.Subcrs, daughter of Mr. S. Subers, of this city. The bride is well known and greatly esteemed by a large circle of friends for her many excellent traits of character and amiable disposition, and Is in every way worthy of the heart and hand of the mau to whom she lias coupled her destiny. Mr. Shaw is known everywhere, from tho Atlantic to the Gulf, one of the most energetic railroad men, and prince of good fellows. We extend our congratulations, and wish them every comfort allotted to married life. They leave for New York to-niglit on an extended trip, and the good wishes and prayers of many go with tliem. Tbe United Htales District Court, At the opening of tbe session on yester day of the United States District Court Col. L. N. Whittle, of tlie Macon bar, arose in his place, and substantially re marked as follows: May it please your Honor: Before the regular business of the court has begun, I would like to say a few woids in behalf of myself and my colleagues of the west ern division of the southern district of Georgia, expressive of onr pleasure and gratification ou the organization of the United States Courts in Macon, and do hope that our relations with tlie court over which your Honor has long and ably presided, will continue as pleasant in Ma con as we Lave always experienced In Sa vannah.

The little boys who possess velocipedes will be glad to learn that a gentleman in Macon lias taken their interests iu band, and will inaugurate here, a custom that has long been observed in Augusta and other cities. He proposes having a veloc ipede tournament on one of the streets some afternoon. In Augusta these tour naments are held every year, tho mer chants of tho city contributing tho prizes, which consist of knives, balls and other articles best suited to a boy’s fancy. The tournaments take place in the afternoon, and arc as well attended as the ilremanle parade. - ’ O i For our own boys, the sidewalk on Walnut street, from Second to Third, has been selected. The boys will enter their names for the race and be governed by judges. Prizes will be awarded for first, second, third, fourth, and fifth best, and will bo governed by ages.

A gentleman In Macon being tnhiBld with a severe cough, carried a bottle of Brewer’s Lung Restorer home to take at nights, and placid it on top of an old clock tliat had not run in ages. He then retired to bed. Next morning, his atten tion was attracted by a tick, tick, and it was some time before lie discovered from whence it cam& never dreaming for a mo ment it could oe tlie old clock, but oil ap proaching it, lo and behold it was working mamifnliy away, seeming anxious to try ami catch up with lost time, as in tlie days of its youth, when its machinery was not affected by age and rust. Now, tliero is a moral attached to this most unaccounta ble mystery, and it goes to show that though the lungs have stopped performing their part in Hie human body, there is no use becoming discouraged, bnt oil tbem up well by taking Brewer’s Lung Restor er, and you will be snrprised to see tlie magic effect produced. The grandest piece of machinery ever made (tlie lungs) will be again put In motion, and perform the duties assigned them with as much vigor and ease as ever. Tho above is a fact, strange as it may seem. P. S.—While Brewer’s Lung Restorer will make an old woru-out clock run by being set on the top oi it, it will not cure a cough by being looked at. After thfs gentleman saw iu eflbcu on tbe dock, be took several doles of It, and his cough was entirely eared.

Last night Miss> Adcle Beigarde af- orded to the theatre-loving a feast. .Tjie bill presented was a most enjoyable one, presenting & succession of the most, beautiful acts in Shakespeare. The "fourth acts, from “Cymbeline,” “As You Like It,*’ “Twelfth Night,” the prison scene.. iu “Measure for Measure,” the balcony scene m “Romeo and Juliet,” aud the closing scene iu “Hamlet” were given. In these numerous acts the talented lit tle lady was required to appear uot only in female characters widely differing, hut to represent also those two opposites which the master hand of the great author has drawn with such wonderful distinct ness—Romeo and Hamlet. To say that she succeeded only wcuid not he. doing justice toa faithful actress. As Imogen, Rosalind, Viola, Isabella and Romeo, sbq was sin gular distinctive, cutering iuto each char ter With a thorough sulf-rorgctflilness, anil seeming to grasp the intention of each as by intuition. In.Hamlct—fora woman—she was won derful, lacking only force of manhood suf ficient to overcomo a boyishness In some parts. This we take it, however, is tbe fanit of nature, if fault it can bb termed, for in denying us here a perfect Hamlet, nature in Miss Beigarde has given us perfect Isabella. If we may be allowed to pronounce upon tbe whole bill, we would express a preference for Isabella, as portrayed by Miss Beigarde in the pris on scene ol “Measure for Measure;” it may be truly said ot her that ahe held tlie mirror up lo nature there, aud gave us perfect representation of a woman moved by love, scorn and anger. - Miss Belgarde’s acting is of that pas sionate, impulsive kind which, while at times it may fly above the mark, never falls beneath it. Of her support we scarcely know what to say. In some pieces it is good, in oth ers mediocre, and in others still, a failure —that is, regarding the support as an en tirely. Individually there were members that stand high ai actors, and deservedly so. Mrs. Sargent as Juliet and Ophelia, was both realistic and inspiring, and Mr. J. R. Anderson, who appeared last evening in three acts, was without fault iu the characters assumed. Several of tlie others, also, were successful at times. Perhaps we would belter express ourself had wc said the support lacked that unity of purpose tliat links the char acters of a play together, and makes the action of each natural.
