The President of the 8en»te.
It would seem that the statute which
declares that “the oath of office shall be
administered by the President of the Sen
insignificant, either in honors
or emoluments. He will be
recalled as a prominent figure in what wr.s
s arted as an investigation of the molfeos-
Grneral Fry nos taken occasion to fur
nish documentary evidence of the fact that
“Camp" Sherman is a liar.
Wr notice that contemporaries in and out
of the State forage very liberally in onr At
lanta colam dh. We don’t care particularly
about this, but it would appear that matter
worthy of reproduction is also worthy of
proper credit
The Philadelphia Times says: ‘ ‘A South
ern fanatio of unbalanced mind murdered
Lincoln and another fanatio of unbalanced
mind murdered Garfield.” We move to
•mend by inserting after the word “an
other” the word “Northern.”
AsTBONOHERsare rivalling weather proph
ets. Professor Newt jn is credited with the
assertion that the late shower of stars con
sisted of fragments of Biela’s comet, which
was broken up in 1342. He also predicts
another instalment from the same source in
1892.
The clerks in Washington are kicking
because they are compelled to work from 9
o'clock a. m. to 4 o'clock p. in. Many of
the best men and women of the country
ore compelled to labor for a support from
daylight until dark, and sometimes long
into the night.
The Boston ltecord says: “A hill has
been introduced in the South Carolina
Legislature to exempt ox-Confedcrato sol
diers from road duty. The Confederates
did a good deal of that sort of dnty daring
the war, bnt it is fair to say ■ that the road
duty done by onr aide at Bull Run has nev
er been surpassed,"
Sooth Carolina is confronted by a valued
insurance bill, and doubtless editors are
looking around for ammunition. We re
spectfully refer our contemporaries of the
Palmetto State to New Hampshire, now
serving tho Union for the first time. New
Hampshire is tho “awful example” of bod
insurance laws.
The World says: '"Uncle Remns,'the
reformed newspaper man oi Atlanta, Ga.
has made much money by his efforts as an
amateur evangelist, and envious enemies
declare that, like his converter, Sam Jones,
he is a revivalist for revenue only.” After
all, what is fame worth!'' It is “Old Si,"
and not “Uncle Reams," who reformed.
Bishop Huoh Hilleb Thompson has
been visiting the Mississippi Agricultural
College at Htarkesville and writes enthusi
astically to the Times-Dcinoc rat about the
sons of the best people who wen to be
seen digging potatoes, planting strawber
ries, clearing away the forest and drilling
in military tactics. He thinks it a fine
augury for the future of the South.
Mb. Jack Focxtain, of Wilkinson coun
ty, sends to this office s beautiful white
partridge killed by him a few days since.
Taxidermists have been called upon by
Middle Georgians during tho last fire years

doves and a white robin, all killed in the
neighborhood of Macon. Thie last freak
will also go into tho bird-staffer’s herds.
Tut first experiment ever made of paying

The pay is five or six times as much
Hindoo or Chinaman earns in his own
country and ten times as much as a Russian
