Atlanta cotton men are estimating the receipts at that point this yea.- at 125,000. v'x don't hear much from Brimber- ly, the Republican candidate for Con gress in this District. He hss evident ly decided upon a “s ! ill hunt.” Colucitt and Joe Brown will be their own successors. This seems ju si now to be a fact, the why ness and how- aeas of which need not now bo dis cussed. Now let's turn our attention to the Second Congressional District, count noses, and see how many colored voters have forgotten Brimberry's Ca milla riot The New York Herald reviews the political situation. Its Indiana corres pondent says that the State seems cer tain for Hancock. Illinois, and Ohio, seem to have turned their faces toward Hancock, and are likely to give him their electoral votes. The First Congressional District, Is greatly in danger of being captured by the Republican candidate Collins, who is Collector for the port of Bruns wick. Collins stands well socially among the young men of the coast, which fact gives him considerable strength. He will doubtless vote the ■olid Republican vote. The Democratic Convention is much condemned by the west-end wire-grass boys for throwing off Col. Nichols after he had served one term so faithfully Col. \V. A. McDonald, of Ware county, is an independent candidate, and will doubtless carry a strong following in the wire-grass, and thus spl.t the party which nominated Hon. G. R. Black, of Scriven. This is one of the many bad results following the failure of the State Dem ocratic convention to nominate a candi date for Governor. While we hope for the election of Col. Black in the first, we know that McDonald cannot be elected, and believe that Collins stand the best showing for success. Col, Black is one of the very foremost men of that District, and the people would honor themselves by sending him to Congress. SubaUtntlng Grant for Garfield. Word cornea from the Republican headquarters at Washington that, in tho event of a* Democratic victory in Indiana, which is now regarded, even among tho stalwarts, as highly proba ble, Garfield will bo forced to retire, and his name on tho Radical ticket sub stituted by that of General Grant. In the event of a Republican defeat in Ohio, it is said that tills change wilt certainly Ire made. An yet, this information can, of course, lie treated only as more political rumor but that such a stop is being seriously thought of by the leaders of tho party in power, wo are not disposed in tho least to doubt. Tlist the nomination of Garfield was tho greatest blunder commitlcd by tho Republican party since tho war has become painfully evident even to thoso who were his most ardent supporters; and as tho Democrats happily nvoidod a similar mistake by the nomination of Gonoral Hancock, a Republican dofeat in No vember is now regarded as almost an absolute and unavoidable certainty, as between Hancock and Garfield Under such circumstances, a change of some sort is a thing very much tabe desired from a Republican standpoint, aud, like a drowning man, the sinking party is desperately catching at every straw that conies in the way. Such false issues as the Sherman correspon dence and the Southern War Claims, that have been raised against General Hancock, have utterly failed to accom- pliah any of the desired results of their scheming originators, but have, upon the other hand, given the great Demo cratic leader the opportunity of writing two letters to the people in which he has shown himself to bo one of the soundest statesmen and grandest patri ots this country has ever pioduccd Hew ^dtoevtisements.

The Presidential Campaign Hon. R. E. Kcnnon, Presidential Elector for the SUte at large, who has just made a tour of Ohio and Indiana, canvassing those States for Hancock and English, and has had such signal success, addressed the citizens of At lanta on Monday night. From . the Constitution's report of the speech we extract the following: Colonel Kennon said he had made six speeches in Cincinnati, addressing from 2.000 to 15,000 persons at a meet ing. He thcrerorc had an opportunity to judge of the feeling of the people Everywhei e in tho great West there is a blaze of enthusiasm for Hancock and English. [Cheers.] The people there are getting tired of the bloody shirt and are determined to bury it so deep that it will never be heard of again. I told those people that the old South of secession was dead, and we have now a new South, progressive and patriotic. The great orators of the West are doing us justice and removing the old prejudices. I heard General Steadman pay the highest eulogy to Southern chivalry I ever heard, and 3,000 men cheered it heartily. [Cheers.] There are so many Democrats in Ohio that you can’t count them. They measure them by the acre. They say if they can get the majority in October down to 5,000 they can carry the State for Hancock by 10,000 in November. There are all over the State what they call "flopper clubs,” composed of Re- puHicns. who will vote the Republi can ticket in October, but will vote for Hancock in November. The old bug bear of Southern claims has ceased to frighten the people. If we could only throw the South solid for Garfield and Arthur the Republicans of the North would be willing to pay us for every slave and every war debt. [Laugliter.[ But I pledge the South solid for Han cock. They are afraid of the solid North now. [Applause.] They are handling Garfield with gloves off, and it is telling. There was not a more pros- ! ’" hB speaker exhibited a pamphlet on Garfield's civil record which he said The Financial Chronicle states he decline in United States bonds since the jlaino election at 1’* per cent., and says it was -almost a fore gone conclusion that the election ex citement would shake the markets a good deal, whichever party _ might be ultimately successful.” That a 4 per cent, bond of any kind should be quoted | at 110J- in this country was a fact so unprecedented and anomalous that it is no wonder there has been pressure to j >ell and realize the premium. The |100 at flO 50 premium realizes only $3 G2 interest per centum, subject to the premium in 1907, which would lie equivalent to nearly 50 cents a year de ducted. In other words, United States 4 per cent, bonds at present prices net only about 3 per cent interest. Theuk is a good opening at Bruns wick for some practical and energetic newspaper man.

Benj. II. Hill, of Georgia, said of the let'-r: “It will have a most salutary and strengthening effect It will have this efleet because it exactly expresses what is slready the view of that ques tion taken by all the people of the South: it is no new doctrine which General Hancock so aptly illu Urates in his letter. For years the South has just held this doctrine. We are not waiting for a season of the Democratic fact we give the following showing of her increased business : She has re ceived up to date nine thousand four hundred and eighty-two bales of cot ton, against four thousand two hun dred hales to same time last year.— Thns it will he seen that our market has made a gain of 5,282 bales. Albany enjoys lower freight rates, and is therefore aide, and does pay from one to one and a half cent more per pound than any other market in this section. The New York Financial Chroni cle of the 2d makes the total visible supply of cotton 1,373,951 bales, an in crease over last year of 351,130, an in crease over 1879 of 245 790, and an in. crease of 80,455 over 1878. The Amer ican aupply as compared with lastyear has increased 350,353 hales. For the week ending the 1st the nineteen interior towns received 77.077 hal-s shipped 09.351. and had stocka of 78,735.

Lamar, of Georgia, said: “When carpct-hag.-ers were in power in the Southern Stales they were very industrious in cooking up these claims, and the Republicans in Congress passed over $30,000,000 of such claims. The Southern people have accepted the consequences of the war in good faith, and do not expect to get any damages for losses suffered through its prosecution. The letter of General Hancock will be very warmly indorsed by the entire South.” Sat what you will about the “im mortal nine” who nominated Mr. Nor wood—they succeeded in getting up the biggest rumpus that was ever raised over the Gubernstorial question in Georgia. The Republican majority in Maine is like the negro’s tied-out catfish, it's “shwiink’’ mightily. They had a ma jority of sixteen thousand four years ago, but thia year the tfdbt is ou the other leg.
