No city iu the South line greater natural advantages than the city of Maeon. Her climate i* not sule je«*t to extremes of heat and cold. She has a delightful winter climate. She ha* Ju«*t ns pleasaiit summer climate. If she had a five hundred thousand dollar hotel it would he filled iu the winter by people from the North and in the summer *»y people from the South. She is in the centre of the greatest stale in the South and all the roads in the South lead to her gates. She is located on a navigable stream whose clmniel is soon to he re-opened to her trade. She ha* rail toad* to the coast, railroad* to the ir*ni field* and coal mines, railroads to th* lumber forests, railroads to the finest fruit portion* In tlie world, rail* roads to all the markets North, Fast, West and South. She ha* the Cncet site* for all kinds of run nti factories. The cot ton manufi‘‘**r»'s located here are pay ing better dividco I*, perhaps* than any vnUU |« *J»- OqjjOj.

Indeed, this writer believes tlist If nil «ur loenl advantages were properly wt before the rotton spinners In Ihs East they would qieedlly loente their nennlng wheels at lenst in this section. What is true of our rot-ton mills is just ns true of ,11 our foundrie* and suh, door anil blind factor!,, and other msnnfsob uring institutions that are well man aged. Mncou is today tho finest distrib uting point for everything that can ho made in the South. She will bo ,t31 further i< advance of her si.ter elite# in this respect when her new railroads arc nil complete. Iu tld, connection it is not amis, to say that Macon Is today the finest point in the whole Southern country for tho location of a manufact ory for box and flat cars. Such a manu- fatory ought to be here and in auccees- ful operation today. liut it take, Iwaius n, welt to build n city. Well, we've got the brains. We have the institutions right bore on the ground for turnltig out men and women of brains. The truth is, we havo been entirely too modest in the uso of our brains. At lenst, we have been too slow to advertise to the world our possce- •inns in this respect. When occasion offer, we can produce the brightest and brainiest of professional or business men. We have business meu without number whose sagacity and skill have already accumulated fortunes In our midst. There is no lack, of brains in •toy of the departments of onr trade. But there are two other things reqni- s'to fnr*lie building of a great oily, and of these the Telegraph doe, not feel so certain. A few year, ago we gathered together a good deal of pluck and we built a splendid road to Florida. Not satisfied with that, we undertook one to Birmingham, and another to Kavannah at the same time. But onr money gave out and wc got hurt, and for the lime at least, we lost our pluck. But that's no matter, we will get those roads to going again. Wc started a good many other things around here, and some of them went dowu with the general crash and our people hist heart. So we need to get our courage hack, and we will puli all •hose insttitutious, that are In trouble, out again, and on ther feet. With the good limes that are ahead of us we can not afford to be behind. But there is atr.l another important requisite fur build ing a great city, and that is amity, nifty of purpo-e and action. United p tuple si* •.uiriy invincible In any possible achieve menu A determined spirit in harmon ious action must acoaipiish whatever It wXs. This .pint, the Teiegrapb hope, to see rapidly renewed la our inid*(. Our people must pull mors to- g thcr to Mitre a greater forward move ment. loot every man utke hold of er- cry near enterprise that starts and pash it on as if it were h'a own. let us talk up and not bilk dow'u our institutions, 'rids spirit of unity is • spirit of u* meas ured helpfulness. It ought to lie in the very stmosphsrs of the town. Let ns put it there and breathe it every day until Mao.n and ail tier'interest* are on our hearts and ou our. longues and on our w.lliug bands. Tile Only national Party. For many years the Democratic party has biv.1 the only uat.ooal party in char acter ami purp i- .. It nut sought to I reward or punish any section, and has ! not belli that residence In any particular pari of the country entities a man to greater res|K*ot or consideration or con fidence than residence in another part. It has proceeded nti the nssutnp.ion tli.it all Americaos desire the wcUfare of their cuuuiry and are worthy of trust- But with alt its Just claim* to con* deration as the only national party, the Democra cy has labored under the daadvantage of having most of its strength iu the South. Leu* national even in this re spect than its chief opponent, for it has always sbowu great strength .n the North and West also, yet its enemies were able to keep aiire prejudice against it by persistent attempts to identify the Dem ocracy with the Confederacy. During the last campaign Home of the most con siderable of the Republican newspaper, could find no better way to help the muse of protection than to nueer at "Confederate" free trade, at the Confed erate constitution of which protection was a violation, and at “old Jeff Davit.” There ia a cause for sincere rejoicing in the fsrt that the last election makes the Democratic party as national in loca tion as iu doctrine and in character. If the states which seceded had not voted at all iu Ihs election Mr. Cleveland would Will have been chosen. Had all the states of the “Solid South," including those which did not secede, failed to vote, the result would have beeu no close in the states of tue North and West that the official el would have been necessary to de cide whether Mr. Cleveland or Mr. Har rison had a plurality. Wc do not believe. In the face of these facts, that the Republican party can longer maintain its sectional attitude. It must vase making appeals to the pas- sons and prejudices created by the war, if it is to have a hope of success, and ad dress itself to the issues in which the country is now interested. Such a change will inevitably bring blessings w.th it. For thirty years it bus been im possible until now to have any question of public policy, no mutter how import ant, decided by til* people on its mer its. The lUpuMican party waa always aide to induco hundred* of thousand* of people to vote, not on the question sub mitted to them, but on the questions which divided the country at the timp of the civil war, and which the war settled. To some extent, no doubt, they were suc cessful in doing this even in tho last election, but the rettik as a whole was so disastrous that it D entire ty possible mat tbe Uepubllcsn party wf.l never again march to battle under the bloody shirt standard. The Democratic party is national, and it will force even its opponents to bo national in order to escape contempt. In no other way can it aerTo tho country better, for in driving awny sentionaliam anil war liiured it mokes possible intelli gent and patristic government by the people. Jutlgo Tourg.es Confession. Judge Albion Tourgee, the moat ardent of Republicans, In hit lost letter to th, Chicago Inter-Ocean, remind, hi, party of a rear Important fact—“that the policy of protection or of a protected market for American product!, standing alone and by itself, has saver yet commanded the assent of a majority of tbe Ameri can people. The election* of 1814, 1802 1881 and 1890 wer# instances in which thin question was presented as practi cally the sola issue proffered by a great party, si two of the cases under pecul iarly favorable condi lions." In each of these year*, when the tariff wt* the question before the people, the verd.cl was against protectioo and ia favor of aommeodal fresdom. Judge Toqggee does not intend to condemn his party, perhaps, ~hut”Le does oo very severely. What he proven it that the vast fibre of protect!?, taxes, weighing heavily on every cotunmor, and diverting billions of wealth from those who prodnen! It to persons favored by th, law, was never •nlborixed or approved by the people, but waa impoied upon them against their protests. Judge 'TtfttTBe* Intimate, th, meaner In which thla was done. Protection, “when ataading alone' Tie any*, was de feated. It was combining protection with other issues to which it naturally bora no relation that majorities which would tax the many for tbe few wen ob tained. Tbe favorite oily of protection baa been the bloody ohirt—and th, bloody •blrt was abolished along w.th it last Tuesday. Thursday’s Celebration. Macon expects all her neighbors next Thursday. Her gates will b« wide open and her cltixens ready to welcome her viaitora. The occasion will be a great one, offering pleasure and amusement to every Democrat. No party ever wo* a greater victory or one promising great er results in adding to the prosperity of the country, and U is fitting thai we should celebrate It in cuch • fashion that everybody will know we ora happy. The rauironda have made a very low rale and Dtsnoerals aboold take advan tage of the opportunity to meet the uien who lad thtaq to their great victory.

In the little Tillage of Egmauting, in Bavaria, a curious nocturnal cxhlbidon haa iuat taken place.

Freseady every man dis charged bit firearm. Many of tbe inhab itant! who were indoom, behind strong barriers, trembled at the thought of the carnage that must have ensued. Then a sjp-fially appointed person recited tbe record of deadly aina by way of exor cising the spirits of evil supposed to he borvenng about.

The Democrat, Win. From the St. Loui, Globe-Democrat. The Democrvu hove carried the coun try. All tbe doubtful states of the Norch bare declared in their favor, and they have held their own In all tho ex- slave state*. They hare carried New York by a larger plurality than that Mate gave to any party before since 1872 arheu Grant swept it by 53,001). Their lead in Indiana la greater than was that of the Republicans in 1888, which was 2318. They bar, also car ried Illinois, with (even or eight of th* electoral vole* of Michigan. The Re publican* bare lost in the West, in nd- 11 don go tlie sc Mate,, tbe states of Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming and Ne vada, which have been woo by Weaver. Th* home of repreaenaalTes haa also goat Democratic, and the senate proba bly keeping it company. Republican re verses have been luMained in several status which elect legislatures that are to choose successor, to Republican sen ators whose terms end on March 1 next. In the present senate the Re publicans hare forty-eeveo members, the DemocraU thirty-nine and the Far mer,’ AUianca two. Thu, th, Republi cans have a plurality of only sight and a majority of but six In that body. Con siderably over half of the twenty-nine senator, whose terms expire next March •re Republicans. If th* DemocraU win foar of these Republican seau without losing any of their own the tenai* will be tied as between tbe Republicans and Democrats, with Stevenson's raatnig vote In their favor. Ae the BepnbL- coas are gaining nowhere, bat losing in many place*, th* Democrat* are Ukely to have tbe next sen sic. Tb* DemocraU, therefore, will be In undisputed control of all branches of th, government for tbe firat half of Cltvalaad', hew term at leant. Their majority in the house will not be so great aa in the present body, but it will be greet enough to give them a decided preponderance on all questions oa which partisan lines are drawn. They will thus be entirely responsible for aU th* legislation of th* two yean beginning with March, 1893. Often in the past eighteen year, control bss been divided, owing to • lick of partisan harmony between the two branch** of congress, or between on* or both and ffi* execu tive, and for thi, reason each party has besti enabled to shirk responsibility for legislation io some degree. With th* DemocraU for the next two year*, how ever, tb* situation will be different. They will have complete and undisputed eway In all departmenu of the gorern- meat, and tbe people will be nbla to bold them to s rigid accountability foe th* management of tta affaire. Spirit Picture*. From th* Boston Transcript A curious thing that the Listener saw in Boeworth street waa th, spirit-picture of tbe spirit-children of a French Canadian gentleman, displayed in th* wioJow of lb* Banner of Light Uw. These am understood to bo the portrait* of a very large family of children who have "grown np" hi the spirit world, and have been obtained, of course, by tbe aid of a "control" from the wplrht world. Mom of the grown-up young men have mustaches and "goatees/' and look like—well, dr oortul, nil nisi bo- num; bat one wouldn't want to meet them lone of a dark night, embodied or disembodied. Tbe possibility 'b.w an Innocent baby may grow up n the spirit world to be a young man of such a type would add a very large new terror to death, if one believed It. However, Swedenborg's beautiful picture uf the heavenly kindergarten miut encourage tb* believer* in the continuation of this life In another world to feel that a hap pier fate awalu tb* baby angidt, and meantime, the pirtnre* in Bosirortb street are anutaing enough to warrant a trip through the street to ere th*m. A WOMAN'S ARCTIC TRIPS. She lisa Tl,tt-<l the F*r Sorth Region Fire Time** From tho Sun Francisco Report. Thera ia many an old whaler who can boast of hi* off-repeated trips to tlie Arctic, but we doubt if there bo many ladle* in our midst who have ever gazed on the icy water* of that far-off ocean. There la residing at the Occidental hotel Just at prewnt a lady who haa visited that frozen forbidding region not once, but five tlmes-golng further north on tbree different occa sions than any other American woman, if wo may except the now reigning Philadelphia celebrity, Jim. Fcary. lira. Healy, whoso husband Is the commander of the United States rev enue cutter Bear, arrived In this city a day or «o ago on the Yorktown. hav ing left her husband at the seal Is lands, where be la now doing patrol doty, eudeavoring to guard tbe neats from the Inroads of the poacher, who, until recently, fairly swarmed In thoee promising water,. Sira. Healy made her Oral trip to the Arctic nearly nine yean ago In tbe stenruer Corwin, mak ing two other trips in the same veaaeL Tbe but two were made In the Bear, and she being a woman of clear un derstanding and quick observance, has gained an Intimate knowledge of the manner, and cnitoms of tho Indlnn, living In that far-off part of the globe. On her recent trip nhe made five ex- cunlon, to the Siberian coast. In order to obtain the reindeer, with which R> ia hoped the vast plains and steppes of the North American Continent may In time be stocked. How Important the micceu of this movement ia to tbe future welfare—the very existence of tbe tribe* inhabiting that region— whom food aupply of whale and wal rus Is yearly growing lees. Is already widely known. The reindeer are brought from the Siberian const to Fort Ctnrenoe, and alrendy a herd of about 175 bare been landed there and are doing well The only thing to be feared la that the people who are to bo benefited—In their atiiftloxs, short sighted way—may neglect these ani mals when they are placed In their hands, and allow them to perish for want of proper care. On one trip from the Siberian coast to Port Clar ence the Bear bad on board alxty- aeren reindeer, which were purchased from Siberian Esquimaux at the rat- of two reindeer for a rifie and box T cartridges. Mm. Healy had the pleasure of meeting and being Introduced while In tbe North to Father Toza, the bead of the Jesntt establishment away up the Yukon river. The worthy print gave an encouraging account or tbe mission under hla charge, and stated that the Indians were being rapidly redeemed from their barb&rto state and filthy condition of life. The Jes uits bare In that district a day school and boarding school The younger In dians—that ls,tbe few who will sub mit themselves entirely to the care of the father*—are, first of aiL washed, scrubbed and relieved of their long ■vaumulatlons of dirt—on operation of many days. They are then clothed and taken Into the Institution as stud ents. The other* who can not give up their roving life and accumulated tilth are taught aa dny scholars, when they feel tike ooraing to school, but aro kept upnrt from the others. The Slaters of St. Ann, two of whom were also met by Mrs. Healy at Port Clarence, have a convent on the Yu kon river, Just opposite tho collego of the Jesuit Fathers. They, too, aro do ing much to redeem the savage maid ens, and bare already seventy board ers In their Institution, all of whom aro doing well and learning very rap idly. "Except for their filth,” said Mrs. Healy, "they are as fine a race of Indians oa any in the world. They are quick to learn, handy at all the mechanical trades and Inclined to be honest. The good Sisters told me, however, that they bad never dreamed that any human beings conld be loet to every notion of cleanliness ai these poor people. Filth seems to be their all-beaetting sin.” Although Mrs. Ilenly haa made the northern trip ao often that It ice mi no more than an ordinary undertaking for her to pack up and atari, she has come to the conclusion that aho has soon about enough of the froten tone, and this latest trip she hopes will be her last A l*rl#*t Who Feared an Opal, » Th* belief thst tbe opal shed, a baoe- fnl influence found a suaporier even In the late Father MoWager, the venerable priest-physic-an of world wide fame.
