i'he Atlanta Constitution favors John

Attorney, if a Republican is to bo ap¬

What will become of Maine? Her

We hope however, that the man to
whom the honor of Governor rightly
belong - will ho able to tako hlssoat

Will there be a President elected

STRONG DRINK IS A CURSE.
it seetDS strange to us why men drink
intoxicating liquors, while they have
everv reason to know that it ts tho
leading canse df al. ost every nritne
committed, and every other disaster,
than befalls the human race—that
it destroys -the mind, body, and in
the end, tho soul. Many of our most
talented young men. of the present ago,
a ho should, in tho future, fill the honor¬
able and responsible positions that are
now. many of then-, (aud ought to he)
.tiled by good men, suffer themseives
to become eiaves to that destroying
agent and instrument of satan, become
-v holly'unfit for business of every cha’s
ter, that would tend to eievate them
:n the estimation of their fellow man,
and finally, bring them-to a degrada¬
tion, from which they can never rise.
We say it seems strange. Is it to
d; 11 trouble? It only increases it ten
.Aid. Is it because they love it ? The
rame they indulge the greater the ap
; ire. Is it to make them feel stout,
und rich, or to use language which
they have not tho cheek to use when
sober ? When they get eobdr they feel
weaker and poorer than ever before,
and in reality they aro. Weaker men¬
tally and physically, and poorer, be
ctaase the monev and time spent is gone
■drove:; at d meaner, because they have
used language unbecoming a gentle

“The law-abiding north will have to

an inoffensive young druggist
about 1 o'clock at night, while on his

which, had It occurred in Georgia,
would have sent up a howl The next
step was a public meeting held almost
under the eaves of thecapitol, in which
a resolution was introduced to lynch

For The Advertiser,
A Sail Affair.
BLAirsvillk Ga., Jan. 21st, 1880.
Mr a ditOe:—T heie was a terrible
affair took place in our county ou the
night of Jan. 5th, which resulted in the
murder of Win. Townsel. Those con¬
cerned in this cruel homicide, are sup¬
posed to be Arthur Owenby and his
son, tho brother-inlaw and nephew of
Townsel. They have been maliciously
designed toward each other for some
timo. I will not enter the full de¬
tails of this sad and deplorable oc¬
currence.- suffice it to say, whiskey was
the prime cause—as it is of almost eve
ery crime that darkens the history of
our country. When will our fellow
men learn to cease placing an enemy in
their mouths to steal away their brains,
aud cause the eternal destruction of
their undying souls? Cnly think; on
tmmday evening Townsel was in good
health, aud buoyant spirits, but.this
| foul enemy of the humau race, robbed
' him of bis and ere the last rays
reason;
| of the evening star had sank behind
the Western bids, the stroke was made
that severed soul and body. Oh ! for a
general -reformation on the subject of
temperance. Our country is degraded
and demoralized by this demon of hell,
and still the people continue its manu¬
facture, and excessive uee. I verily
believe there are persons who would
distill if it were a hanging crime. They
are as much devoted to it as the heathen
Chineotohis opium, or the rude Hot¬
tentot to his devilish shrine. In cou
elusion 1 would add; May tneannals
our country never be stained with
another deed so deplorable. Tianiiefa But^ nay eft
the day come when ' ituT
temperance shall float triumphantly
over our whole country. Then we will
rise from our fallen state, and like tho
brightest of constellations, shine among
the nations of the earth. May presper
i iry rain copiously all over our land,

New York, January 19— There is
every prospect of long aud hitter liti¬
gation ever the will of the late Frank
Leslie,who bequeathed to his wife most
of his property including the trade
mark ‘Frank. i.esHe '’ His 'oldest son
will contest tbo giving away of this
name, ott the ground that he had been
Baptized by it, and that his father's
name was Henry Carter. It is proba¬
ble that a charge of undue influence ou
the part of Mrs-Leslie will be one of
tbo objections to the brobation of the
will.

Charleston, S. C., January 19.—
Oliver C. Ross, son of a wealthy mer¬
chant at. Greenville, has been courting
a Miss Estella Cavingel, a poor but
be .utiful young lady, contrary to his
father’s orders. Day before yesterday
| was his twenty first birthday, and
shortly after eating his dinner he met
Alias Cavingel and both 'weut off quiet
ly nnd were married. Yesterday the
son went to bis father and told him all
about it. Major Ross immediately went
into his library, and, returning with a
pistol, shot, his son through the breast,
ioflictiog what is believed 'to bo a mor¬
tal wound. Tho father has left the
place,—Er change
