Yesterday's dispatches gire ns hope

but these three States make no differ

is solidly Democratic.
There seems to be. little doubt of
the election of a Democratic House of

to point to a strengthening of the pres
ent Democratic majority in Congress.
A telegram was received in our city
yesterday from Hon. H. G. Turner,
stating that this District had given the
Democrats a majority of probably
three to four thousand. While, there
fore, wc may be discouraged at the re

knowing that our own people remain
true to the principles of constitutional
government; solid and untied in oppo
sition to Radical villainy and corrup

will hold in check the efforts of the
Republican party to centralizo this
government, and we may yet hope for
a brighter day.

Thomas J. Spear, an old citizen of
New Orleans, recently had a coin
ronnicatiov in the Picayune of that
city setting forth tho commercial valiu
at the cotton stalk for the textile fibre
which may be obtained from it. Mr.
8. says: "Twenty years sgo I remind
ed the cotton planters of Umisana that
the cotton sulks conuincd valuable
fibres, that it was a fine material for
manufacturing purposes, but no atten
tion, as it would appear, was paid to
my discovery and information. 1 will
now remind them again that one acre
of ground will produce on an average,
as is well known, two bales of cotton,
weighing five hundred pounds each,
which when sent to market brings ten
cents a pound, giving for the two bales
#100 -whereas the sulk of the plant
on tho same acre will yield from one
to one and a half tons of fibre, if prop
erly prepared would be found to be
equally as fine as Manilla and worth
at any time, at the lowest calculation,
from |12l) to #150 per ton, or #225.”

The remarkable rise in stocks aod
bonds, cspecislly in good railway se

stocks share in the general boom.

Account of a meeting this morning be

lan : For a man who had met the one
crushing defeat of bis life General Han
cock sustains himself nobly. At 0
o’clock this morning he went to his of
ficial headquarters and was soon im
mersed in his daily military correspon
dence. He bad read the morning pa
pers at the breakfast table and knew
the result Not a word fell from his
lips, not a movement of his impassive
face gave token of emotion within.
Two or three visitors called and were
received by General Mitchell in his of

brought over to Governor’s Island a
gentleman who had once himself tasted

"Well, General," was the visitor's

"I am sorry.”
"I am sorry too, hot only for the

CANDIDATES FOK SUPREME COURT JUDGE.
The Legislature will be required to
elect three judges of the. Supreme
Court at the : pproachiug session. A
Ch : ef Justice and two associate Judges
caused by the resignations of Chief
Justice Warner and Associate Justice
Bleckley. The appointment of Judge
Jackson as Justice Warner's successor,
made the riiirl vacancy. There i:
quite a list of candidates. Judge Jack
son will be a candidate for Chief Jus
tice, and probably without opposition.
In addition to the names given above
Colonel P. L. Mynatt, of Fulton, will
be a candidate. Col. Mynatt is a law
yer of splendid ability and would
make a splendid Judge of the Supreme
Court. He is one the first lawyers in
the State and will have a strong follow
ing in the Legislature. Judge George
N. Lcs'er. of the Blue Ridge circuit,
will also be a candidate for Judge of
the Supreme Court. Ho has made a
record as Judge of the Blue Ridge
circuit that will make him
exceedingly strong before the Legisla
ture. Judge Martin J. Crawford will
also be a candidate for the place he
now holds as the successor of Judge
Bleckley. Wc are also informed that
there will be a strong movement com
ing from Southern and Middle Georgia
urging Judge Willis A. Hawkins to
take the place he now holds. It was
understood at the time he was appoint
ed that he would not be a candidate,
but his friends in the town and middle
part of the State are urging him very
strongly to permit the use of his name.
Wc arc not informed what hn will do
in the matter. He is a first-class law
yer, an admirable Judge, and well ac
quainted all over the State. Judge
Alexander M. Speer, of Griffin, now
Judge of the Flint circuit, will also be
a candidate. He has given entire satis
faction as a Judge, and is a fine law
yer. He is well acquainted in the
State, and will make a good Supreme
Court Judge. We are informed that
Judge E. H. Pottle, Hon. Herbert
Fielder and Judge David A. Vason,
will also be candidates for the Su
preme Court bench. Out of this list
there will be no trouble to find a good
court—one that will be an honor to the
Stale, and as capable as any ever be
fore selected.
JUDGE POTTLE’S CHOICE.
Wabbenton, October 30.—Editors
Constitution : I am no candidate for
the associate judgeship of the Supreme

General Assembly soon to assemble.

Important to Railroads.
Atlanta Constitution.
Wc* call attention to an order pub
lished in another column from the
K«ilroad Commissioner* to the various
railroad companies in this State, about
the injuriojs blockade of freight* now
existing. It seems that under some
arrangement among the railroads only
a certain quantity of cotton can be car
ried by certain railroads. This causes
a blockade of freights, and it is the j
purpose of the Railroad Commission to
relieve the pressure. The railroad
companies are required by this order
to remove cotton and other freights
when delivered to them for shipment to
the extent of their capacity, without
regard to any contract, expressed or
implied, that may exist-among them.
The order is an important one, and is
of importance not only to railroads but
shippers.

The following proclamation was issued
to-day;
A PROCLAMATION.
At no period in their history since
the United States became a nation, has
this people had so abundant and so
universal reasons for joy and gratitude
at the favor of Almighty God, or been
subject to so profound an obligation to
give thanks for His loving kindness,
and humbly to implore His continued
care and protection. Health, wealth
and prosperity throughout all our bor
ders; peace, honor and* friendship with
all the world; a firm and faithful ad
herence by the greit body of our pop
ulation to the principles of liberty and
justice which have made our greatness
as a nation and to the wise institutions
and strong form of government and so
ciety which will tend to perpetuate
it—for all these let the thanks of
happy and united people, as with one
voice, ascend in devout homage to tho
Giver of all Good. I therefore recom
mend that on Thursday, 25tli day of
November next, the people will meet
in their respective places of worship
to make their acknowledgements to
Almighty God for his bounties and
protection, and .to offer to him prayers
lor their continuance. In witness
whereof I have hereunto set my hand
and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed. Done at the City
of Washington this the lat day of No
vember, 1880, and of the independence
of the United States the one hundred
and fifth.
