AN INTERVIEW WITH MB. DAVIS.
Dr. A. J. P. Garnet, a physician of this
citv, while on a recent trip South. Visited
Jefferson Davis, with whom he bad a long
and intimate interview, i lie Star this
evening published an interview with Dr.
Garnet, in which the views of the ex-Con-
federate President are given upon the po
litical 8itnation and other matters. Dr.
Garnet says:
“In the coarse of our conversation daring
the day, Mr. Davis alluded to the political
condition ol tin- country by saying that in*
knew nothing of the present executive, and
that be had not yet progressed far enough
with his administration for him to form an
■ pinion of it. He s- tuned ha ndi d
with the members of the cabinet
selected from the South, but not
disposed, he thought, to entertain a
very hopeful view of our future,
an he said that the respect, love and vener
ation for the constitution which animated
the citizens of the United States before the
war had now departed from onr people,
and that the system of government
erected by onr forefathers existed only
in name; that there were elements of dis
integration and'disruption in our midst
wli <-] c ,iff» only b** rcstrH'm-d and held
in check by force; that the underlying
•nd fundamental pri;(ipv- upon w.v-
our system of government was
ereoted, and apon which
constitution as it was
fore the war rested, are. fast becoming
obsolete—forgotten by old men and never
learned by the young; that under the rule
of Republicanism during the war and
subsequent to it, the constitution was
made a rope nf sand, and that whilst this
party of so-called liberal ideas was pro
claiming universal freedom and equality
on one hand, they were tearing down and
blotting out the very sdfrgnards and de
fenses which alone under our form of
government could secure them to the
people.
' Speaking of Commodore Bollock'
book, which declares the secret history of
the Confederate agents in England daring
the war for procuring ships, tbe Doctor
continued, after a pause, “Mr. Davis ex
hibited much feeliDg at what he charac
terized the duplicity and meanness of the
English government in its conduct towards
the South, saying whilst that government
wonld permit us to purchase and take
away as many ships as we desired, there
was always some pretext formed to pre
vent tne sailing of those vessels pur
chased by any agent or citizen of the Con
federacy, although such vessels were en
tirely unarmed.
“I ashed him if it was trne that he ; had
authorized any petition to be presented to
the Federal authorities to have his disa
bilities removed. He replied very em
phatically in the negative, and added that
ne had written an open letter to the author
of that petition, calling his attention to

A BIO HOTEL FOR MACON.
The Enterprise Token Right Hold of by
Capitalists^
It would seem from prerent Indications that
Macon is to have a big hotel at no dls'ant day
In the future. A movement Is on foot to erect
edifice that will cost 1150,000, and that will
surpass in comfort and convenience any hotel
In this section of country.
Without Intending to cut any reflection
upon the hotels that are now located In our
mldit It may be stated that Macon has long
needed such a hotel as is contempla'ed by
the present enterprise. Her locution natural
ly vsuggests the propriety of tbe movement.

NEPTUNE TOOK IT HARD,
Th* Superior Court and Savannah Bar
Hav* n Lively Exparlance nt Sea
Savannah News.
Eight or ten members of the Savannah
bar met with a thrillir g experience, twice
repeated, in attending conrt at Darien
this week. They left Bavannah early
Sunday morning for Brunswick, and in
the afternoon of the same day crossed
over by a steam launch to Darien. 8t.
Simon a Bound is a bad piece of water—
treacherous and stormy. The little
launch “Mischlel” was crowded with
bad a dcz*n passengers. There were twice
that number in the Savannah party;
Judge Adams, Mayor Lester,Solicitor-Gen
eral DuBignoo, Hon. P W. Meldrim, Hon.
J. J. McDonough, Dr. R. B. Harris, R. G.
Erwin, Esq.. J. R. bau*sy, Jr., E. M.
Green, W. W. Mackall, Jr., and W. W.
Frazer, Esq.
Scarcely were they out on the sound
before the wind begau to blow stiffly. Iu
a few moments it blaw a gale. The waves
rolled higher and higher and broke int?
foam over the frail boat. There wa.s
iron enough in the •'Mischlel” to carry
her straight to the bottom if once
swamped. The crew and pafsengers
knew this, and were anything but cheer
ful, It was hard work to keep tbe launch
under control and cat of the trough of the
sea. As she was tossed about by toe
waves htr bow pointed skyward
one moment and to the bottom
tbe next. Her timbers creaked and
strained and seemed as if they would
be wrenched apart by the violence of the
waves. Life-preservers were bigger in the
eyes of the pent-up party than dozens of
retaining fees. They expected to bo swamp
ed or capsized by every billow that rolled
toward them. The sea ran heavier and
heavier, tossing the launch about as though
it was a chip.
After raging with great fury for a time
tho snuall passed over and the wind ceased
as suddenly as it came up, and the party
was lauded safely. Having finished the
docket of Mcintcih county tne rnr mbera of
tbe party started to retaro, Darien is al
most iniccestiblf, bat it is easier to
get there than it is to get away. The gen
tlemen divided into two parties. Mayor
Lester, Mr. Sanssy and all bat Jodge
Adams and Mr. DnB gnon started ont first
in a boat, intending to cross over to the
mainland and take a train on the East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia road.
About the middle of the afternoon J udge
Adann and the Solicitor-General started
after the others in a boat propelled by
three negroes. The tide was low, but
they concluded to take the short ronte
and go through tho three-mile cat. Aa
they were poling along they came up with
the advance party struck on a flat. The
two gentlemen passed on and ont of
■iRbt, but before long they too grounded.
While in this position the other* came up
and passed. Finally hla Honor and Mr.
DnBignon were afloat When they
got ont on the river a stiff breeze waa blow
ing. Clouds of inky blackness rolled up
and out of them came torrents of rain.
Tha aurf foamed and seethed and
dashed over and into the skit!
nntil it was soon halt filled with
water. Flashes of vivid lighting and
peals of sharp, rattling thunder succeeded
each other almost incetsantly. The wind
lashed tbe river Into a white foam, and
picking up tbe spray from the crests of tbe
waves droTe its blinding mass against the
exposed boatmen and their passengers.
They say that it never rained harder fa
Georgia. It continued an hour and a half,
WeltiDg the party as thorougly as if they
had been overboard. Reaching Batler v
Island they found shelter, and while wait
ing for the rain to abate dried their
clothing. Later they started out
again for the mainland, hipieg to get a
conveyance from the landing to No. 1 on
the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia. After Getting ashore
tney drove seven miles through
the rain and were again soaked.
When tbe railroad waa reached they
dried ont again, and yesterday morning
boarded a train and came home without
fnrthnr adventure, though they found
that tbe first party, which was already at
home, were Secerning anxlons for ther
eafety.
It. We expect them all, as on ibat day we will
not only put tho latch string on the outside,
bnt will take the gate off the hinge*.
In additton to tho feature* above mentioned
there will be hurdle racing, baseball and
inumbers of ?-ther attractions, which will be
made known from time to time.

There Is little donbt that it would prove An
object to secure this class of travel.
Generally tbe people who leave their
liomrs In tbo far North to seek
health in tbe genial climate of tho 8cuth arc
those who have wealth aua who are wllllug
to dispense it. If they could bo detained In
Macon, the money they leave at other point*
could Btoppcd here, aud the city would derive
the benefit. There is hardly a person who
would not secure a share. So much for the
feasibility of the scheme.
Mtj, T. Skelton Jones ha* the enterprise in
hand. lie has assurances of 175,000 from capi
talists outtlde this city, and he now desires to
raise a like amount from the people or Macon.
That he will have but little difficulty In
doing does not seem doubtful, as
casually mentioned tho subject to
group of five gentlemen yesterday
aud they promptly subscribed over five hun
dred dollars. The Msjor will make a canvass
of our moneyed men within the next five
days.
As to the design, location, etc., nothing has
been said or doue. Tho Hill has claims th%t
cannot bo overlooked, while the business por
tion of tho city will exact some consideration
of its claims. There are plenty of ellglblo
sites in Macon for such a hotel as projected,
and all of them with advantages, now that wo
have street cars.
There is hardly a citizen in Macon who doos
not feci a deep Interest In the success of tho
hotel enterprise, and capitalist cannot fall to
regard it a- :t ;-mv. !:m mm- ut when Ma

For several nights Mis. Keating has been

Macon, Ga., July 14, JS84.—I take

the superior excellence ot your Hors-
ford's Bread Preparation (Baking Pow
der) as an article healthful and nutri
tious. So long as superfine wheaten
flour is made use of for bread-making,
so long will there be a necessity for re
storing to such flour the nutritive ele
ments of which it is deprived by the
refining process; and, so far as f am
aware, this is the only Baking Powder
in the market that possesses that qual
ity; while in giving lightness and
porosity to the bread, whether made of
superfine or unbolted (Graham) flour,
there is none better.

Not having a fence around tho Jail came
near getting Jailor Blr&ong In trouble yester
day. It seems that D. G. Johnton, of Colquitt
county, convicted In tbe United States Courts
of obstructing a legal process, was in the Jail
awaiting sentenco. Yesterday morning ho
appeared In charge of the marshal in an In
toxicated condition. The Jailer was sent for,

side could supply the prisoners with
pistols, knives or any thing else; that
wss being built and soon the prisoner* would

Judge Speer accepted tho explanation a*

HO N HORSES FIGHT.
Snld to b* Muoi Funnlsr than a Circus.
Greenland, Florida, Letter.
Tbe fight in question occurred be
tween an old and a young etallion, two
well grown and beautiful animals. We
deem it necessary at times to stable
the old, oa with 8go they grow spiteful
and vicious among their progeny.
Whenever tho old one is brought out
he generally neighs, and appears eager
for the fun. Thia brings tho young
stallion at full speed, and he also ap
pears ready for the fray. Then the old
is unbridled. They make no saluta
tions, but at full speed go in search of
the drove that instinctively huddles to
gether for their protection and that of
tho young. Tho stallions, on nearing
tho drove, form a circle, which ih gen
erally about one hundred feet in diam
eter, and around tho drove they do
their fighting. Tho old invariably
takes tho inside track, which is a de
cided advantage. They fight princi
pally rearing. Should one get the ad
vantage, the other would turn to kick
and start again around the ring.
It is astonishing to see the art used
In these fights, which continue several
hours. The old invariably proves the
victor. We take little interest in cock
fighting and seldom bet on horse rac
ing ; but on the old bay station, in a
contest for mastery in feats of agility,
we will bet our pocket-book.

Tho modest equaro white dwelling

Wishing to end his days under his own

as a piece of real estate did not much
exceed $25,000. The princess asked
$125,000 for it, and when Hugo ex
