The World says: “Revivalist Sam Jones

to be seriously ill It is not stated what
Sam Jones is sick of, though the public
generally is sick of Sam Jones."
Baiuns is a reverend, he is also, an evan

he proposes to be elected Governor of
Texas upon this platform. Prohibition
is gradually getting into politics, and

Evkey now and then the world is called
upon to weep over a new Enoch Arden. A
man in New York deserted his wife for
years and then tried to play this little game
upon her. Mrs. Arden took the fire-shovel
to him, and served him right. The Enochs
are generally a bad lot.
The private banker of the German Em
peror owes his position to the fact that
when the Empress was traveling and suffer
ing from cold feet he poured his coffee in a
bottle and gave it to her in place of a hot
brick. His name is Herr Cohn, and atten
tion to her corns made him rich.
The Picayune says: “It is always safe
for u society girl to be asked to play on the
guitar in company. By the time she has
shown her handsome arm to good advan
tage in tuning it the E string will break,
and then she can excuse herself without
profanity and ask some one to play on the
piano."
Oub reportot the funeral of Gen. Toombs
will l>e found full and complete. Knowing
that the ordinary facilities at Washington
for such an extraordinary service would be
inadequate, wo sent a special reporter and
telegraph operator with an instrument to
Barnett and thus secured a faithful and de
tailed re port of the obsequies together with
the events of the sad occasion.
The Senate has passed a bill for the relief
of General Lawton. Congress, having
spent twenty years in relieving the political
disabilities of late Confederates, is now
going into the business of relieving those
who have none. Mr. Beck proposes to push
a general amnesty bill, hut it cannot pass.
Tbo North it still afraid of Jefferson Davis,
ltohert Toombs and Jnbal Early.
The Washington correspondence of the
Cincinnati Enquirer credits Mr. Itodney
AV. Daniel, ex-colloctor of Buffalo, with a
project to bring 20,000 colored men from
the Southern States to New York before
1H88, and so make that State surely Repub
lican. But Mr. Daniel will fiud it cheaper
to follow the old Southern Republican
plan. One thousand colored men skilfully
voted are just as effective os twenty tbou-
The Philadelphia Press aays: “General
Lawton, of Georgia, who, by promptly and
manfully declining the Russian mission
aaved President Cleveland from mnch of
the embarrasami nt which he anffered
through the persistency of other ineligible
appointees, has petitioned Congress for the
removal of his political disabilities. The
petition should be promptly granted and
then Lawton onght to get something. He
his been a square man."
A pbomikebt New York preacher tells the
Star, when questioned concerning the civil
ization of the Indians: “I seriously doubt
whether anything can be done with them,
Everything has been tried in tbe way
Christianizing tho Indians, and yet I think
a Christian is scarce among them. Mnch
wrong has been done them, it is true. ” The
gentleman has only to go through tbe In
dian Territory to find that the Indian may
lie not only civilized bnt Christianized.
People who fear the effect of vast riches
will please observe that gigantic fortunes
dissolve in the presence of death. Corne
lius Vanderbilt left tho bulk of his fortune,
$100,000,000, to Wm. II., who, dying af
ter having doubled his “talent," leaves $80,-
000,000 to each of his sons and $10,000,000
to each direct heir. To-day no Vanderbilt
is as wealthy by half as was the grandfath
er. Large families are national safeguards.

A CancaviLLE dispatch to the St. Louis
Republican says: 'The quarrel between
Gen. E. P. Alexander and W. H. Felton
now seems certain to lead to an encounter
between the two. Dr. Felton has not an
nounced his candidacy for the Governor
ship, but is well understood to be in the
field. His friends claim that Gen. Alex
ander's attack was made to ruin Felton po
litically, while Alexander’s friends say Fel
ton slandered the General. In his card to
day Felton says hs has no desire to 'kick a
fallen foe,'and then proceeds to give a quar
ter of a column of his opinions concerning
Alexander, in which he applies opprobrious
epithets to him and makes serious accusa-,
tiOM."
General Toombs.
The death of General Toombs relieved
him from mental and physical suffering,
anu as he had outlived the span of man and
most of his own generation, his friends and
relatives may feel a sad satisfaction that he
is at rest.
If tbe earlier years of his manhood were
marked by intellectual triumphs and all
that could make home happy and eontributo
to human ambition, the eternal laws of
compensation burdened his latter days with
sorrows, illustrating the vanity and weak
ness of m-l.
Ho was the last among a host of great
Georgians who had helped to
build up and strengthen tho State in the
most brilliant era of her prosperity.
•Stephens, the nearest to him, Lumpkin,
Warner, Cobb, Thomas, Miller, Jenkins,
and others whose names will readily sug
gest themselves, had preceded him to the
grave. His friends, his compeers, his po
litical antagonists, had gone down before
the reaper. He, wifeless and childless,
lingered among a strange generation, that
knew of his greatness from tradition only.
For nearly half a century he had been a
commanding figure in Georgia affairs,
maay years of which were spent in honor
able service in tbe Federal conncil. He
was a representative Southerner of tbe day
when Southern intellect, courage and hon
esty held the government to its written
charter.
Bold, turbulent and imperious, with an
ample purse to protect his whims, his de
fiant spirit could uot brook the restraints and
discipline of college life. Bnt n few years
later, while yet a mere stripling holding an
officer's commission in an Indian war, we
find him protesting agninrt inactivity and
delay nt the very headquarters of Genoral
Scott, a fierce martinet, and withal the great
captain of the day. Aggressive, audacious
and intolerant, we find him pushing his way
through tho State Legislature by honorable
service, and reaching Congress young in
yonrs to be acknowledged one of the leaders
of a great party, which went down forever
just before tbe evil days fell upon the laud.
His ability enabled him to rise to the full
responsibility of every new position ac
quired, bo that when called to succeed the
illustrious and accomplished Berrien in tbo
Senate the toga sat upon his shoulders as
though he had been bom to it.
His fierce and volcanic eloquence had
much to do in preparing the South for tbe
venture of tho sword, in defence of her
constitutional rights, and all Georgians
know how, when he thought the hour had
arrived, he rushed Georgia upon secession
despite a most formidable opposition.
His experience as a lawyer and publicist
had great weight in formulating the Con
federate government. But tho march of
revolution was not fast enough for his rest
less spirit. The new government had been
largely confided to tho hands of
men not in active sympathy with
secession, and General Toombs fretted and
chafed nndcr the caution and conservatism
displayed. It has been truly rcmnrked that
had he been chosen the leader of tho now
government, defeat or independence would
have been bnt a short distance off.
Resigning a cabinet portfolio, he sought
the field, but held for a year,as was his pre
rogative, his seat in the Provisional Con
gress. With other officers, from time to
time, he would mingle in the debates and
conferences of tbo Congress, and at this
lime his great power* were at their maturity
and were never displayed to hotter advan
tage.
We recall an incident not long preceding
tho final adjournment of that remarkable
body. The Congress sat,as does the British
Parliament, in chairs and without desks.
One morning during a discussion of a
proposition, which was urged with great
ability by several members, to lend tbe aid
of tbe government to individuals by issuing
notes and bonds and receiving pledges of
cotton, General Toombs walked into tho
hall about the moment of a pause in the de
bate. He was in the full vigor of physical
and intellectual health, lie was faultlessly
dressed in a suit of block, with a military
cloak thrown over ono shoulder and held a
military hut of the then fashion in his left
hand. Catching the Speaker's eye, he held
the floor for about thirty minutes, during
which he riddled the proposition as a bat
tcry would mow down serried ranks
at abort range. Wit, elo
quence and illustration followed
the one quickly upon the other. Drawing
himself up to his full height, he closed in
lungunge something like this: “Mr.
Speaker," said be, “we have been tolil that
cotton is king, that he will find his way to
the vaults of tbe bankers of the old world,
that he can march up to thrones of mighty
potentates, and can drag from the arsenals
of armed nations the dogs of war for us
that he can open our closed ports and tty
our young flag upon all the seas. And yet,
before the first autumnal frost has blighted
a leaf upon his coronet, he comes into this
hall s trembling mendicant and cries, ■Give
me drink. Titan ia, or I perish.’ ”
The effect was magical. The proposition
was killed beyond the power of resurrec
tion.
General Toombs made a mistake in de
serting tbe civil side of the cause for that
of the military. His temper was too in
subordinate to brook the daily routine and
methods necessary to mobilize on army.
Added to this there was an unhealed so re
between himself and Mr. Davis, ne did
not shine as a soldier at first, but this was
redeemed, when at a critical moment at the
second M'"*** 1 *', though under
arrest, ho , galloped to the head
of his brigade. His career reached
its zenith, when at Sharpsbnrg be held the
bridge all day and received tbe thanks and
praise of Gen. Lee. We have rapidly
sketched the rise of Gen. Toombs. The
chronicler of this day looks not for
studied phrases of eulogy. His is the task
to draw if possible a moral from the life of
man who was continually before the public.
