Gbidy, while unbosoming himself to a New York reporter, confessed that At lanta had been hurt by prohibition, and that Georgia was likely to be afflicted with General Gordon for the next ten years. It cannot be called poetic or retributive justice, bnt it is a singular and horrible fact, that as' the first volunteer attack upon the reputation of Miss Little, the victim of Moore, came from a man in llryau county, before a week had passed a white girl of that county had been violated and mutilated by a negro brute. The brave men engaged in blacking the character of Mamie Little can turn their attention to the poor ruined girl of Bryan county. Iowa has turned up a weather prophet who predicts a change in the weather shortly. Professor Foster predicts that one of the greatest storm periods of 188G will begin on August 16th and continue till the 2Gth, during which the great drought will be completely broken by heavy rains, hail and tornadoes and heavy gales; a trop ical hurricane on the. southeast Atlantic coast between the lGth and 20tb. These storms will be general, nnd Iowa, Illinois, New England States, Eastern Canada and Labrador will be in the danger path; vivid sun spots from the 18th to 24th; brilliant aarorss on the 20th and 23d. I A Crime and It* Expiation, For several days past the people of this city and the surrounding country have been fearfully wrought np over the details of an atrocious crime. It is unnecessary to reprint them here, as they have already appeared from time to time in onr local columns. While mast he a matter of profound regret to all lovers of peaes and good order that this crime has been expiated by sum mary violence, it is due to our people to record the fact that the provocation had gone beyond the point of endurance. It was enough to boil the blood of tfie coolest citizen to know, that a stranger, a young girl, an orphan and defenseless, had been brutally outraged. A citizens' meeting of large proportions and of representative character had done all that could be done to allay popular ex citement. If there bad been a prompt ac quiescence in the conclusions of this as sembly by all classes of citizens, the due eonrae of law might have been awaited even by those who were skeptical as to its com ing at the proper time and in the proper shape. One mob had been qnietedby the temper ate speeches and cooler counsels of leading citizens, when it was developed that a sys tematic effort was being made to prepare a defence of the brute whose life has been for feited. As nsnal in such cases, an attempt was being made to smirch ihe character of tin poor victim, whose life seemed to hang in a balance'from her injuries. Cowardly men can be found to retail sus picions and scandals of any woman, who Another “Solution.” Among the many solutions of the South ern problem furnished the press by politi cal economists and statesmen of more or less note throughout the country, is one from Texas, which we find in the columns of the Globe-Democrat The plan suggest ed by this writer is expressed with rhetori cal dash, bristles with historical allusions, and is adorned with quotations from many noted authors. Thirf is perhaps the best that can be said of it, unless perhaps we eredit him with a tolerably fair statement of the situation. It fails utterly in the remedy. The plan suggested to rid the South of the negro is colonization, and Mexico is chosen, that portion selected lying npon the Gnlf between the Rio Grande and the Chagres river. We note this plan in par ticular because there is all over the South many people who have a dim idea that some day in some way the negro will be taken bodily from their midst and the country be left to a blisafnl ropcse. The correspondent argues that the country would suit the negro and the negro the country; that he is now occupying, laud from which the Spaniard has been driven, and it would be no sin to drive the Spaniard or his assignees a little further. So much for the morality of the plan. Now as to tho South: "The South had better loso her electoral strength and let a few of her Congressmen retire to privets life than remain as she late to-day. If the North were wise, oa Bismarck is wise, she would not rely solely upon blood and iron as tho cements of national union. A Committee of One Hundred. The proposition to create a committee of one hundred to look after the welfare of Bibb county and the city of Macon, meetawith a ready indorsement from law-abiding nnd order-loving citizens of all classes. There are a few who bitterly oppose the suggestion and some who do not understand the plan proposed. The committee shonld be chosen by a pablic meeting called for that purpose. It is desired that this committee be cam poBed of representative men. white nnd black, from all classes, trades, pro fessions and occupations in the county. So crested the committee will be i direct representation of the best public opiuion and capable of valuable work in the community It will be the duty and province of this body’ to takecogDizanceof, bring to the attention of the courts and correct the evils that exist in the county; to find out what laws are needed to protect and uphold tho peoole in the exercise of ail their rights, and to enforce through the pressure of public opinion the laws that now obtain. This plan is not a new one, nnj is it at all doubtful. It has been tried with sucoess in many of the leadiDg cities of the Union. It in effect crystallizes the best public opinion and makes it available as a weapon against er ror and wrongdoing. There is not in it suggestion to which any law-abiding per son eon offer a reasonable objection, The objections will come, and The Hppakorehlp. The friends of Colonel ilurgun Rawls, of tho county of Effingham, propose to pre sent liis name for the speakership of tho next House. Colonel Bawls was in the Georgia Legislature during the trying dayB of reconstruction and did his duty.* This is considered a crime now by certain parties in certain quarters. Bat then tho Colonel has had experience as a Congressman and was deprived of his sent by a Republican majority. And the Colonel fought and was wounded in defending Atlanta. If the Con federate boom has not petered out perhaps this old soldier may be allowed to catch on.

He stated emphatically that thoro is no ground for donbting the courago of tho State Department in dealing with the -Cutting caae; on the contrary, 'the Senati r is inclined to think that the Scorettry or State has, if anything,'been too aggressive in the Mexican matter. He says that the United States should t^y and induce Mexico to repeal the law which renders an Ameri can citizen punishable in Mexieo for his utterances in the United States.

Tns Democratic oonventlon of Tennessee disposed of the Railroad Commission. The Union says; "The signal victory was in defeat of the minority report on the ques tion of controlling the railroads. This has been a long, hanl fight. It commenced several years ago, nnd, like ail unnecessary outbursts of passion, it bul to run its course. At last, and after years of free dis cussion, a Urge convention voted-two to one to abandon the whole question. The friends of a Railroad Commission aban doned all hope of getting a commission, hut made an earnest appeal by their ablest lead er to decUre in favor of regulating the rail roads by law. This was voted down two to one upon the ground that nu:h special leg islation was not necessary. This hoa al ways been the law and such a declaration could do no good and might do harm."

Nearly 11 trades are included in the list, which give the hoare of labor, the rate of wages, the number of laborers out on strikes and the general state of trade. The showing, the jrhole, is decidedly encouraging, appears that in most cases the workers have reasonable lengths of service, the average being between nine and ten hours, with fair wages, and that in nearly every s'ance the trade is reported as "good, "fair," or "brisk.” Only five trades in the whole list are classed as “dnU.” Among these are the ahirtmakers, ahoemakee and tkilors, whose dull season this naturally The only trades that can complain of long hoars are the bekerm, barbers, beer wagon drivers, hone cir drivers and conductors, shoe salesmen, waiters and tea and grocery clerks. The wegee vary from five dollars a week, paid to jute workers, shirt-makers and silk weavers, to four dollars a day, which stone-cutters, bricklayers, carvers, cement masons, encaustic tile-layers, fresco painters, paper-hangers, plasterers and coopers receive. Folly half of the different classes of laborers are paid at a rate exceed ing two dollars a day, and in not more than tweoty out of the ooe hundred and fifty trade* ia the deity wages Ices than a dollar and a halt At present there is a strike in only one tnJe—the dgar-makers.
