The Thornton House in Talbotton, the new brick hotel, is to be opened on next Thursday, with Captain S. W. Thornton proprietor. It Is what Talbotton has long needed—a good roomy betel Collins, the Republican candidate la He fist district, is going to contest the election; ostensibly on account of fraud, hut really in hope that a Republican Con gress will give him a seat—or something else. It U said that Mr. J. W.

The animal has since been fit ted with a wooden leg, on which it moves about with tlie utmost ease. This, the Arlington A chance thinks, proves the ab surdity of hastily ordering the destruction ef animals that meet with such accidents. The 'following arc some of the idio syncrasies of the Warrenton Clljiper: Says e lady friend: The only thing that reconciles me to being a woman, is the tfact that I won’t have to marry one. We note that Mr. Stephens and Ben Hill l»ve already arrived in Washington city. Mr. Stephens is spoken of for a cab inet position, and the indications sretbat Mr. Hill is seeking one. Eight bushels of good lime, fifteen bush els sand, and oue bushel hair, makes enough mortar to plaster one hundred aquare yards. One-thousand shingles laid four inches to the weather, will cover one hundred aqusre'feet of surface, and five pounds of nails will fasten them on. There Is strong talk of the revival of the “old Whig party.” We would like for dta platform and principles to be restated at least. A change Is likely to occur in some way. There is but oDe way to Utrn the public mind Horth and South away from the war issues'. This can be gracefully and fully done cow if Grant makes a move to build up a national party. Two new parties will be healthy moves Just now. * Wild Duck Hurting.—Sumter Re publican. : On Friday last Messrs. J. P. Chapman, J. J. Murray and Tom Murray went duck bnntlng on Flint river.

Marietta Journal: The colored peo ple are more subject to consumption new than when in slavery. We bear of fre quent deelbs kmong that race from that Incurable disease.

Wbat is strange both bad been for a long time street laborers; both were taken down sick on the same day, and tbe latter died In ten minutes after the death of the former. Talbotton Register. Mr. B. S. Callier is one of the model farmers of Talbot county. iHe cultivates only a few acres iu cotton, and generally makes about* bale of lint to the acre. Tbe balance of Ills farm is devoted to wheat, oats, rye, bar ley, corn, .peas, potatoes, etc., of which he makes excellent crops, and always eleara money on his operation. He finds * ready market for everything he kas to sell, and disposes ot his surplus at good prices. He doesn’t owe anything, it en terprising and energetic.

The captain of a Spanish vessel threw his ballast overboard in the Brunswick harbor, and was fined $100 for the act. The Atlanta Turk is in trouble. He got up “a blow” that he had drawn $10,- 000 in the Havana lottery, and somebody in Louisville, Ky., was foolish enough to sell him some whisky npon the strength of that “draw.” The Turk was about to chauge Ids place of business, hut was ar rested Just before tho West Point train left tbe Atlanta depot. It is now called the “Stone Mountain Route,” and the Geoigia road has thus been founded on a granite foundation, and, renamed by Col. E. R. Dorsey, its efficient and far-seeing general passenger agent. Tho road will not only thus, ljke its namesake, last forevever, but, like Stone Mountain in Georgia, continue to grow till it becomes a world’s wonder.

Zollicoffer’s original private journals, In which are original or ders from the Confederate secretary of war, from Albert Sydney Johnson, other generals and himself. Military telegrams are-found all througn it. It is quite in teresting to read the varied orders In the -original handwriting of the heroes which have fallen, and exist only In history. The journal has been in the bands of Mr. T.-C. Brown, of this county, who, at the time the Jonrnal came into his possession, wcsillvlng in Kentucky, and at whose house Gen. Zollicoffer once stopped, for getting, when he left, this journal. It was banded to us by Mr. J. D.

Mr. Mullins is using an evaporator that has been in use for ten seasons, and it appears as good as the first year it was put up. This syrup readily commands from 50c to OOeper gal lon by tbe barrel kx our market. This Is a better showing tliau can be made from cotton planted on tbe same amount of land. The Brunswick Appeal in seeking in formation on tbe fish end oyster question, met with the following reply among oth ers: Hon. J. E. Dart said; You need no “smack-;” you need only the cash to pay fishermen. There are hundreds of men and boys hereabouts who will catch all tbe fish, turtles and oysters you can pay for. They catch now double what they can sell here in Brunswick—have been disgusted and quit the business.

Why, there is no need of any capital except a deposit of enough money here to pay for wbat is de livered at reasonable prices and an agent here who know* tho freightage, express- age, aud the demands of the numerous markets. I can tiud tlie man, the fi*hu» men, and the markets, too, wlien there is cash enough lie re with the Dexter*, Mad ina, Nelson, or any other four respectable men to pay for other fisb, oysters, etc., as delivered. There Is enough fish and oys ters in the rivets adjacent to St. Simons istauil to supply all Brunswick aud all middle and north Georgia tor aceutury. Eastman Timer. Major Armstrong is at at his residence in the country. They fourid-Dr. Johnson suffering considerably from a wound upon his little finger, wttcb was greatly swolen' and from which his hand was much inflamed. Amputation o the finger appeared necessary, but, afte consultation, it was concluded to postpone the operation, and, If possible, allay the inflammation of the hand. The finger was bitten by a mad negro, and was quka as bad as if it had been bitten by a road dog. The Doctor had some trouMs with a ne gro roan by tbe name of Sam Manning. They met in the road, and the Doctor de cided to punish tbe fresdman. Getting but of his buggy, he thought of using only his whip, when the negro seized the Doc tor’s hand, aud severely bit him.

Albany yews and Advertiser: We would not offer discouragement to young America, but if there is anything uow-a- days to inspire the youth oftbis country to cflbrts for political advaueementor prefer ment we fail to discover It. We see noth ing inviting in the political arena, aud tlie way to that kind of fame is as tlie way of the transgressor, “hard.” No man occu pying prominent position to-day has es caped the scandalous tongue of would-be traducers, or the sleuth-like pea of a rav enous pi ess. The day of meritorious pro gression has passed. It requires tlie pecu liar tact of political shrewdness and wire- working manipulation to win political success, aud after it is won the head lies as uueasy as that which wears a crown. Augusta Chronicle: Yesterday morn, ing a very dilapidated tramp, who had evidently looked once too often on the wine when it was red, walked into the office of the clerk ot council and asked the mayor for a pass Li Beaufort, S. C. “What ir the matter with you?” asked his Honor. “I have lost one of my bauds,” was the reply. “That doesn't prevent you from walk ing,” said his Honor. “Where did you come from ?” “1 came from Columbia, S. C., last,” said the tramp. “Well, you look strong and healthy, you are not of this place, aud, besides, it is not right to spend the people's money in this way. I cannot aud will not give you a pass.” “I will have to go to the hospital, then,” said his trampsbip. “No, you won't; not in Augusta,” said the mayor. The tramp, finding he was in tlie wrong pew, left, muttering something about tbe poor-house. The Boldest Theft Yet.—Colum bus Enquirer: Yesterday niorniug the show window of a store in one of the most public parts of Broad street was broken open and robbed.

We learn from the Gwinnett Herald that the Northern Methodists held an an nual conference in thatconnty at Martin’s Chapel, over which Bishop Foster presid ed. There were about thirty preachers in attendance. They have four districts, and these thirty men, all white, are scat tered at different points in the State, most ly in tho northern part, there being but two men appointed to places below Ma con. At various points of tlie State the young men are leaving for the West, looking for homes. This is unfortunate, both for Geoigia and the young men Young men of pluck and enter-, prise can do as well in Georgia as in any section of the United States. Tho few only make fortunes rapidly anywhere, and tbe proportion In Georgia Is as great as in Texas or any of tlie Western States. Sev eral young men left Greensboro last week on this wild hunt. We hope they may be •successful. Foil forty years tlie i*eop!e of Georgia have been asking tbe Legislature to pass a dog law, and ft is probable they may ask for the next forty without getting a dog gone bit of relief in this particular. A .festive young man of Atlanta got into .the guard house by being drunk and boisterous. He was so humiliated when he came to his senses, that he tried to hang himself with a blanket. The police in onler to keep him from killing hiiu self. W ATE am AN is greatly distressed. He has just learned that there is no provision for warming the jail in Athens. It Is downright cruelty, he says, to subject the inmates te-aeld weather, as there is uo provision in the code for freezing prison ers. He thoughtfully suggests that some prisoners are Iaaoceut. The Atlauta Post-Appeal saya the col ored people of Georgia are worth $5,704,* 503. Twenty yearn ago they were worth more than that. The Reporter remark*, that Gen. Toombs saya tlie people of Georgia are poorer than they have been since the war. We'll show him his mistake if he will come to LaGrange, Dm W. H. Mono an, a prominent citi zen of Greensboro, is dead. The Columbus Enquirer says that tlieir market bouse Is - located ia the cen ter of a mudhoie, and calls loudly for walks or tow-paths to reach tbe stalls.

Houston Home Journal: The farmers of Georgia do isbt not want colored labor ers to leave tlie Staley as they fill tbe de mand for form' labor batter than could auy others; but if tlie emigration fever should take them from us, laborers of some other kind must be induced to come to our aid. • Hon.

The elec- lion'Of Judge Fleming makes an unusual coincidence in the history of (lie Bench of Georgia. His father, the honored and venerable Wm. Fleming, being Judge of the Savannah Circuit. Father and son LaGrange Reporter: Mr. John Rob erts, who lives a few miles south of town, had bis gin house burned on tlie lltli in stant.

Sanlmisyillk Herald: Several of the Georgia papers speak of the “whisky war being waged with unabating zeal” in Washington county. We do not think it can be properly called a war, as there are no evidences of bad blood. All is calm and serene, and we think there is no need of any bitterness being engendered, what ever be the issue of the friendly canvass uow made to stop the traffic in spirituous liquors. Albany News and Advertiser: We were shown yesterday tlie claw of a gray eagle filed by Sir. Horn, in Worth coun ty, tbe other day. It m sen rad eight inches across.

Judge Speer was warmly urged for this distinguished position by many of tlio best men ot Georgia, and Ids election will be heartily indorsed not only by them, but by the good citizens in every section of the State. Judge Speer is eminently qualified for the Supreme bench. He is a finished scholar, a fine representative ot the best culture of I he times at home ami abroad, an able jurist, possessing in tlie highest measure the confidence and esteem of the jieojde of the whole State. After a suc cessful and honorable practice at tbe bar, extending over a long period of years, and after a faithful service on the bench eif tbe Shpcrlor Court, his election to the Supreme bench is a fitting testimonial to Ids worth and excellence.

He came by importation from Germany, but was originally obtained from China. Our carp differs from tlie English, which has become hybridized from intercourse with other fish.” “Then it is nest not to breed them iu ponds containing other fish?” “Yes, for several reasons. The carp, besides becoming hybridized, is of the class of fish Unit float their eggs. That is, they attach them to grass, lillies, flags, and other vegetation growing in the wa ter, where they are fed upon by every oilier fish nearly that swims. “Where are these young carp you bring, bred?” “On the Monument lot in Washington City. Wo liave there a house and appa ratus for handling tlie fish. They are bred iti immense numbers and shipped to every part of tlie South. This section lias taken hold of the carp, aud more or ders come in from the South, especially Texas, than from anywhere else.” “In what situations do tne carp thrive best?” “In ponds or sluggish streams, with muddy bottoms. Tho fish have this pecu liarity. Placed in a new home they wt*l explore it thoroughly, and it Is seldom your carp can be seen for many days after you stock tlie water. Iu tlie coldest part of wiulcr they kettle—that is, they come together, place their heads in the mud witli their tails pointing upwerd and gills open. Here they remain torpid, until wanner weather.” “How are they as tahle fish ? ” “The best in the world. The flesh is sweet and juicy, and those who have eaten prefer them above all others.” “Get pretty large, do they?” “[ have seen two that weighed fifteen pounds each, but the average weight is from two and a half to five pounds. They reach that weight in from two to three years, and multiply with great rapidity when bred by themselves.” “How are they thriving in waters stocked last year? ” “Splendidly. Every one who lias tried them seems to have succeeded well. They are evidently the fish for this country, and will be plentiful in a few years.” “Yon brought out the shad for the Ocmnlgee last year, did you not?” “Yes. Seen any of them ?” ,“No. The catfish, however, hare the appearance of having lived well; that probably explains it. The shad have flourished in the Flint, Chattahoochee and other streams, and I believe yours will finally turn up. Please request the par ties who have ordered carp to call and get them.” Tlie following notice of carp we clip from tbe Atlanta Constitution. From those who have already tried, we learn that success has attended nearly every ef fort to raise the fish in waters around Ma con. Many report them as having, since last February, attained the length of eighteen inches. , Dr. H. Q. Cary, superintendent of the fislieries for Georgia, has just brought out 1,900 of tlie famous German carp, whose culture has proven so successful in Geor gia. One year ago he brought out 700 of these Ash which were very small, most of thesis weighing about half an ouuce each. They were placed iu various parts of the State and have so multiplied that tne dis tribution this fall will carry these valua ble fish to nearly every part of tlie State. Some of the fish put in Georgia waters one year ago now weigh as much as four pounds. They thrive wonderfully well. They are healthy and hardy, and have great fecundity. Tiiey lire largely on vegetable nutter, and are not pi edacious in their habits. They aie a delicious tahle fish. Tlie parents of the tisli just brought are four year* old, aud weigh sixteen pounds each. Though tlie carp grows to this large' size, its fiesli is never coarse. In deed, as ^able fish it lias few equals. Dr. Patllio, in southwestern Georgia, recently took out some carp which had been ’u hi* pond nine months. When p..t iu they weighed only oue-lialf an ounce, and when taken out weighiug respectfully 5| and pounds were sent to lion. W. E. Smith. They went to tlie table and were pronounced oxrelient. Such fish can not be valued too bigldy for Georgia. There is a great deutaud for the carp now ou hand. Dr. Cary will make every ef fort to supply the demands of the whole State. The German carp was fint brought to tills country four year* ego from /Ger many by the United States fish commis sioner, at great expense. It is certainly a blessing to have a safe, reliable and cheap remedy for cough* and colds near at hand at' tills season of the yoar. Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup has emi nently proved itself to be such a remedy. Fnce 25 cents. THE HAM ©M THE MONUMENT. What He Htw iu Anno Doaassti Oue TlMNUWUd Mine Hundred and ■Safety. clip frurn the Chra&ffte atsd Con stitutionalist the following: Jt was a mellow day in the autumn of tbe year J980. A mysterious Usure shim mered ovet tlie landscape, and peace and prosperity reigned in the great Sty of Au gusta. The Man on the Monument, stand ing sentry above tlie marble faces of Lee aud Jackson aud Cobb and Walker, look ed steadily out upon the panorama spread at his feet. For miles and miles stretched tire beautiful valley of tbe SavanDab, basking iu tbe goldeu sunlight of indhm summer. Through it, like a silver ser- . pent, glided the broad s»vanmii w-»iV . upon whose deep waters rested scores of poble stsaroere. Faint and musical came tip to bia cars the sounds Lorn the busy si cuts below, which extended for miles to the East, the West, and-the South, lined wkh stately buildings teaming vitli life aud wealth. Fire hundred thousand people lived and schemed and bad their joys and their sorrows within the scope of the sentry’s glance. A million of spindles clattered in tlie giant factories that bor dered the great canal, the smoke from im mense factories floated lazily m the air and long trains laden with passengers and freight moved in and out in every di rection. Away to the southeast the com rades of tbe Man on the Monument slum bered in tlieir quiet graves, beneath the magnolias and pines, where they had been placed, more than a century before. The jackets of gray were long since dust, and the “Lost Cause” was remembered only as a tradition of the past, hallowed by the sweet services of Decoration Day. The world had not slept in all the long yeats that had gone siuce these men iav down for tlieir everlasting 'rest. Science and the arts, and all that makes np tlie higher civilization, bad progressed with gisnt strides. Tlie twentieth century had outstripped the nineteenth. The sentry, solemn and silent, on his post, had seen tlie years roll by at his feet, as a scroll is unfolded. He had seen Sittle cliildreu grow up and pass away; he had seen tlie last of the host whose valor and heroic devotion he was there to commemorate pass over the river into tho shade of tbe trees, and take his place in tbe bivouac of tlie dead. He had seen the town of twenty thousand souls, grow and thrive aud prosper and increase into a power in the land, sending out its products to the remotest parts of tlie earth. As all these reflections came crowding into the brain ot the marble sentry, a smilo seemed to flit across his weather beaten face and his breast to swell witli emotions that struggled within, and strange soliloquy mingled with the sounds that came from the street, “O happy laud,” ho said, “the land for whose welfare my comraees fought and died, your destiny is still onward aud upward. Their sacri fices were not in vain. Taught by their devotiou to duty, chastened by the fires of adversity, admonished by the stings of for tune to rise superior to tlie sorrows of the past, you liave gone on in an earnest de sire for advancement of tlie new South, until to-day you are respect ed and courted by all the world. No persecution has been sble to keep'you down, no envious hand ef f;u’- tlon ba3 been heavy enough to restrain your advance, but firm in patriotic im pulses, looking to the prosperity of the Re public of winch you form a part, you liave gone on steadily, keeping pace with the march of the age, and doing your part in the great battle of life.” Aud tho sen try took a stronger grasp on his musket, and was silent once again. And still the .Savannah glided to the ocean, ami tlie happy voices of school children minded with its rippling music, and the lovely Fountain City prospered beneath tlie guarding form of the Man on the Monu ment. WHAT IS A GENTLEMAN T How Cardinal Newman Answers the StnexUun. It is almost a definition of gentfeman to say lie is one who never inflicts pain. This description is both refined, and as far as it goes accurate. He is mainly occupied iu mere removing obstacles which hinder tlie free and unembarrassed action of those about him; and lie concurs with tlieir movements rather than take the initiative himself. His benefits may be considered as parallel to what are called comforts or conveniences in arrangements of a person al nature; like an easy clmir or a good fire, which do their part in dispelling cold ami fatigue, though nature provides means ol rest ami animal heat without them. The true gentleman in like manner carefully avoids whatever may cause ajar or a jolt in tbe minds of those with whom he is cast; ail clashing of opinion, or confusion of feeling, all restraint, or suspicion, or re sentment; his great concern being to nrake every one at their ease and at home. Hu has his eyes upon all his company; he is tender toward the bashful, gentle toward the distant, aud merciful to the absurd; he guards against unseasonable allusions or topics which may irritate; he is seldom prominent in conversation, aud never wearisome. Ho makes light of favors white he does them, and seems to be re ceiving when he is conferring. He never speaks of himself except when compelled, never defends himself by a mere retort; ho has no ears for slander or gossip, is scrupulous in imputing good motives to those who interfere with him, and inter prets everything for the best. He is never mean or little in his disputes, never takes unfair advantage, never mistakes personalities or sharp say ings, for a-guinents, or insinuates evil which lie dare not not speak out. From a long-siglited prudence, lie observes the maxim of the ancient sage, that we should conduct ourselves towards our enemy as If he were one day to bo our friend, lie ha* too much good sense to be affronted at insults, and is too well employed to re member injuries. He Is patient, forbear ing aud resigned, on philosophic principles. He submits to pain because it is inevita ble; to bereavement, because it is irrepa rable; to death, because it is his destiny. If lie engages in controversy of auy kind, his disciplined intellect pre serves him from the blundering dis courtesy of better, perhaps, but less edu cated minds, wbo, liko blunt weapons, tear am! hack ii s emi of cutting clean, who mistake the point in argument, waste their strength on trifles, misconceive tlieir adversary, and leave the question more involved than they find it. He may be right or wrong iu bis opinion, but he is too clear headed to be unjust; lie is as simple as he is forcible, and as brief as he ia decisive. Nowhere shall we find great er candor, consideration, indulgence. He throws himself into the mind of his oppo nents, ho accounts for their mistakes, be knows the weakness of human reason os well as its strength, its province and its limits. If be is an unbeliever, he will be too profound and large-minded to ridicule religion or to act cgainsl it; lie is toj wise to be a dogmatist or fanatic iu his infidel ity. He respects piety aud ambition; he even supports institutions as venerable, beautiful and useful, to which lie does not assent; he honors the ministers of religion, and tt contents him to decline its myste ries without assailingordenounciugtbem. He is a friend of religious toleration, and that not only because his philosophy has taught hnu to look on all foi ms of faith with an impartial eye, but also from the gentle ness of feeling which is the attendant on civilization.

Now John son, down at McVille, has a dog that lays over anything in the shape of canines I have ever seen. Johnson brought tho dog from Jesup, sixty miles down the road and carried lurn up to McVille. AU got along very well, until one day in a fit of anger Johnson beat the anhnal severely. Here comes in the dog’s sense. He neither fled nor sneaked off. He went down to tho train, got on board, and was well received by Dick Harris who knew him. When the train reached Jesup the dog get off aud returned to his former home. Days rolled by and presently the dog got a terri ble beating from some one about tbe house, and calmly he walked off the sec ond time. He was nobody’s dog, he rea soned; the hand of fate was against, and the doors of both homes were closed behind him. What did he do ? Stifling his sobs, b« went forth again aud sought tbe train. This time ft was Dick Johns, who took him in and dead-headed him on the score of old acquaintance. McVille was reached, but the dog stirred not. He only looked over towards Johnson's, heaved a sigh, let the big tear roll down his cheek unchecked, aud rode on with the train, alone in -he wide world. But Johnson had seen him, and followed on tlie next train. When he reached Macon, he found the dog asleep on the veranda of the Brown House, and as he took him in charge, a neighboring butcher presented a hill of three dollars for a day’s board.” And tbe Colonel arose, drove a toothpick down behind the gold filling of his pet tooth, and linking his arm in Carey Styles’, strolled towards the depot. A Snffceatlon. Yesterday we were shown a letter from an inmate ol the Insane asylum, a man who many years ago was a resident of this city. The letter contained the request that the recipient would scud some old papers to the writer,who was fond of read ing but had nothing to read. The request suggests an idea that may perhaps be pro ductive of much good to an unfortunate class of people. It i3 this; Every dally paper in the State receives,Jon an average, fifty exchanges a day. These exchanges are usually cast aside after being scanned and sold or given away. Why not, once a week, bundle up iu each daily newspa per office, a hundred or so of these ex changes and forward them to the asylum lor the perusal of those who can read ? A contribution of oue hundred old newspa pers, from each of five offices, would be sufficient. There can be no doubt bnt that the reading of these papers would strengthen many minds that now feed upon themselves and sleep under the clouds of melancholy. When upon a visit to the asylum some months since au inmate said to us: “I am not insane, but my mind is weak; and no wonder. I have droppedout of theworld, aud having nothing to read and no one to converse with, live in the narrow circle of my own thoughts.” What eficct would a constant supply of new matter have upon a mind that could thus express itself so clearly ? A cheering, strengthening one, surely. Books aro too long. They weary, and tbe minds of these people cannot re tain the plots and characters, but the mis cellany contained in the newspapers, the items of news, bits of romance, poetry and history are just tbe things desired. Teopie who remember the hospital pa tients of tho late war, will remember the avidity with which they seized upon every old magazine or paper that came iu reach and read it until use wore it out. We know of no rule to forbid the extending of this kinduess to the unfortunate by the Georgia editors, and hope to see the suggestion, if a good one, adopted. Tlie express companies will doubtless carry tlie packages free of charge. Paripj gfljiBM Simmons Liver Regulator up *0-its htfcbret sioclaid.

Yesterday, there died in this city Wm. Pepper, a colored man whose life was a varied, and in some respects a re markable one. He was formerly the property of Mr. Sam Griswold, and after the war went to Liberia. In that coun try he was stripped by the natives of every thing he possessed, and barely escaped with his life. He finally managed to get aboard of an English ship, and mako his way to England, where an abolition society took him in charge, taught him a speech, published his record, and carried him from town to town as a lecturer. Bill’s next move was to one of the North ern States, but life iu that region did not suit him, aud he drifted back home again. His verdict was, “Geoigia is the best country in tlie world.” He .settled down into a faithful woikman aud polite citi zen. The grandsons of his old master will bury him in Oak Ridge Cemetery to day. — — m a - -- Cattle Mtealtaff. Tlie Chief of Police received a tele gram from A. T. Clarke, of Barnesrille, describing a cow that had beenslolen, and requesting that if a drover, then coming toward Macon, had sncli an animal iu his possession, that he arrest him. Yesterday morning Mr. Clatke arrived ia Macon, aud having obtained tlie proper warrants, went in search of the drover. They found him on the upper part of Cottou Avenue, and iu his herd of cattle was Clarke’s cow. Accompanying Clarke was a Mr. Dumas, who at once recognized in the herd several head of cattle belonging to himself. The driver was arrested and searched. A weapon was found upon ills person, and he will doubtless be convicted of carryiug con cealed weapons, if of nothiug else. Hu claims that the strange cattle just tell in aud came along with him without bis knowledge. ■■ ■ m Bishop G. F. Pierce. The many friends of this excellent prelatiwill be glad to learn that his health, which has beenso precarious for a year, is improving. Hu is now in Texas, is to-day at Dallas, aid will go from there to Arkansas, wh>-re will hold two conferences. He will not return to Geor gia before Christmas. A Baid on Editors. This long-suflering class of individuals has received the attentions of the public in many ways. They have been denounced and praised, alternately, as the whims and necessities of tho public diclatcd. But now comes ono Rev. Warren A. Candler, wbo L deuiands that they be licensed, like a patent medicine man ora tin peddler, and carry around In their breeches pocket the authority to peddle their wares. Of course, he lives in Atlan ta, and we copy from the Constitution what he has to say: “1 can see do reason,” said the Rev. Warren A. Chandler, with the airof a mxa who had made up his miud, “tvby editors should not be licensed and commissioned just as other public servants arc.” “Tbe law has provided,” be went on to say, “that the lawyer who sets up a claim that he can protect our property, slutll be duly examined, and admitted to practice only after lie has demonstrated liis ability to do intelligently wbat he starts to do. He is then put under certain rules, that hedge him within an honorable and straightforward conduct. If lie violate these rules the right to practice is taken away. So witli the physician who takes cate of our physical health. He must show his ability before be is allowed to receive pa- tienty, and he must conform to the estab lished rules or he is tabooed entirely. Tbe preachers aro also licensed and a depart ure from the laws laid down takes tbe preacher out of Ills pulpit aud deprives him of tlie right to preach. Why shouldn’t editors be put under the same sort of rule?” “Something ia that,” wc murmured thoughtfully. “Of course there is. The power of the editor for good or evil is tremendous. The human miud can hardly conceive Ike depth and width and the power that the journalist possesses. Ami yet l.--: i- - fectly irresponsible os far as times go. Be mouuts his tripod without auy formalities —holds ft despite the most glaring viola tions of all laws of propriety—and looks to no tribunal.” “Libel suits!” we interjected feebly.. “Doesn’t touch the case. There is hardly one libel ia a thousand that can be assessed by a jury—not one iu a thousand that is carried into court, the libelled par ty preferring peace to prosecution. And then, beyond auy special complaint, there is a danger that tbe editor way corrupt society, mislead the people, put the bad over the good, and do infinite damage. Agaiust this soit of course—against tfce editor who pursues it—there is uo repara tion. Worse than this, there is no vrs? t 0, protccL society from him.” “Might kilt him,” we suggested fur tively. “That might Ue best,” said Mr. Can dler, smiling. “But really, without hav ing any definite suggestions on the sub ject, it does seem that there ought to be some test for editors before they- are al lowed to edit, and some rules fo them straight when they arc at work. The only way to reform the press is toget good men in the editorial chairs. That a certain.
