that this boasted Republican sjstc
taxation is maintained at ar, an „
cost.of nearly three dollars a head to | si
I every man, woman and child in the These scurv;
United States. And more than five
millions of this unnecessary tax levy
goes annually for the support of this
Internal Revenue Bureau and its
army of office holders, all of whom
turn out for “the party” on' election
day and are contributors to the Jay
Hcbbell campaign fund.
Such a showing as this ought to
consign any political party to a sud
den and infamous death, and it is
strange that a free people have so
long 'submitted to such wholesale
plunder as has characterized the Re
publican party since, the war. The

A Little Rock, Ark., dispatch says
that intelligence from Fort Smith
gives the particulars of the capture in
Indian Territory of a female desperado
named Belle Starr, by a United States
Marshal and posse. She was wanted
for horse stealing, and, with her hus
band, was captured after a long chase
and a sharp fight. She has been ad
mitted to bail in the sum of $1,000.
Mrs. Starr is, perhaps, the most noted
character of the Western border. She
has led a wild life for many years. It
is claimed that she was a member of
the Younger gang of outlaws, and was
present when Shepard claimed to have

Rivek and harbor appropriations
since the foundation of the govern-
menf-amount to $121,032 864, of which
nearly one-third, $39,696,275, were
made in the last three years. Eastern,
rivers and harbors have received $23.-
902,178, of which Massachusetts has
hid the largest share. Southern States,
including half the Mississippi appro
priation, have received $24,017/179,
estof monopolies, while onr system
of taxation is one that bears upon the
poor with crashing discrimination.
The ouly remedy for these glaring
iniquities is the complete overthrow
of the party in power.
The Judgeship of the Albany Circuit.
The Grand Jury of Dougherty coun
ty in session last week pay a merited
compliment in their general present
ments to Judge W. T. Jones, and re
commend him to the General Assem
bly a9 the choice of this county for
the Judgeship of the Albany Circuit.
The News and Advebtiser desires,
to add its unqualified indorsement to
that of the Grand Jury, and will here
take occasion to 6av that the election
of no man in the circuit would give
more general satisfaction to the peo
ple than that of Judge Jones. He has
been Judge of the County Couit of
Dougherty' county fdr several years
past, and has administered the law
with ability, firmness and uniform
justice. That he is well qualified to
fill (lie responsible position to which
he now aspires, and to. , which his
friends desire to see him elevated,
goes without question. Although yet
comparatively a young man, he has
long since won his way to the front
rank of the Bar of Southwest Geor
gia, and bis unswerving integrity,
natural mental ability and well-known
legal attainments have established
him in the confidence of our people.
Judge Jones will bo supported by
a large number of the representatives
in the Legislature from this portion of
the State, and if he should be elected
the ermine * will fall upon worthy
shoulders, and the law will be admin
istered with ability, firmness and
equal justice to all.
The claims filed for the Garfield' ex
ponses amount, to over $70,000. and
Dr. Hamilton and Dr. Boynton have
not been heard from. Dr. Agnew’s
bill is $14,700/ and Dr. Reyburn’s
>$10,000. Hamilton’s .presumably the
same as Agnew’s, and Boyntbn’s the
same as Reylmrn’s, although he did
nothing but stand around, look wise
and talk foolishly, would run the total
up to about $100,000. About the first
thing Congress should !c at its next
session should be to allow this amount
with as little talk as possible. It can
appropriate millions for a river and
harbor steal, and then go to “cheese
paring” over Garfield's grave. Lotus
have done with this thing now and* for
ever.
The Ben Kill Monument Fund does
jiQt seem to be growing as rapidly as
the friends and admirers of that de
ceased statesman expected. We see
ii stated by the Atlanta correspondent
of the Savannah . flTeics that only
$3,092.25 have been collected up to
date, which statement is followed by
one still more discouraging,
viz: that much of the interest in the
project has died out. It will be a
burning shame if the people of Geor
gia let this project fall through, and,
if the proper steps are taken hv those ^
who have.the matter in charge, we do'
not believe that it will fail. Would it
not be a good idea for the association
at Atlanta to appoint a general agent
to make ft tour of the State with the
view of working up renewed interest
in the project and appointing active
local agents? The people of Georgia,
who thought so mnch of Ben Hill, will
not refuse to contribute toward a;
monument to perpetuate his memory
f they are approached directly and
ptoperly upon the subject.

An Independent Candidate and Bis
SpcccU at Dawson. \
Special Coirespondent of tbe Corctfmtfrn.
DaNvsox, October 21.—C. Wessolows-
ky, of Albany, the Independent Repub
lican candid ate "for Congress in this
(2d) district, spoke here rhis morning
to a small audience, composed chiefly of
negroes, who had been “(hummed up”
yesterday, by his “avaunt-courier,”
a negro by. the name of Singleton, who
formerly worked in behalf of the
Democracy. The speaker advocated
‘ ‘a free 1 lallot and a fair Count” and
proposed to get it by dispensing with
the payment of taxes a« a condition
precedent to voting. His “hobby”,
was the education of the poor (black)
hum’s children, and he proposed to do
this by having Congress make an ap
propriation for this purpose, and dis
burse the money in the several States,
according to the degree of illiteracy.
He favored a protective tariff for the
South until we got as rich as the North,
and then to abolish all tariffs. His
peroration was an appeal to the ne
groes to vote for him instead of Hon.
H. G. Turner, because he was a Re
publican ainl could advocate an appro
priation by the general government for
the education of the poor children.
Messrs. J.H. Guerry/J. G. Parks or
G. TV. Cheeves were ready and willing
to reply to his harraiigue, but after re
flection thej-determi ned tha t the' speech
did not deserve a reply,- and so they'did

I was told the other day by a friend
who happened to be- at Windsor when
Grant and his son Jesse dined there
with Green, and stayed all night at the
castte, the following, which may be of

Grant and his wavs. Tfaeie were a

the young man’s expense, I remember,
most of which got into the papers, but
I don’t think thte?iras ever made pub

Mr. Jesse, it seems, was sitting in the
smoking-room of the castle with half a
dozen others (the General not yet
having joined the party), smok
ing away and holding forth'
at the same time with a
tumbler of brandy and soda on the
arm of his chair. “ There is one thing
about this country of yours, gentle
men,’’ he said, when the first lull in
the general conversation gave him a
good oppening, “which strikes me as
peculiar. Ii is this Take your
Prince of Wales here. Let him go
out shooting to-morrow morning and
nol come home at night. Why, the
whole country would be up in arras

tegular way, and the owner of the
same, one Robert Bailey, of Virginia,
an old fashioned gambler, realized
considerable money from tbe same,
receiving $100 royalty for each box
sold. He did all he could to reform the
game of faro and protect thoso who
played from the unfair practices of
regular blacklegs. * He was debarred
from gambling rooms in his latter days
because of the ease with which he de
tected crookedness on the part of play
ers and exposed the same. Though
he made quite a foytune from his
patent, he spent tho money as rapidly
as it came to him. Tlie original pat

costumes—-men who can run out on
the beach every ten minutes and
tell how warm the water is.’
“Well, I caught the idea, and
agreed to furnish the crowd for $20
a day, aud we closed the bargain
I hired eight men at $1 a head to
bathe there nil. afternoon, and. I
pocketed the balance. I got a green

of the Union across the stomach,
and mshed about keeping the gang
alive. The second day they struck
for $2, because the water was so cold.

didn’t miss ’em, and I kept even
financially. Then two froze to death
right on the beach, and.I Lad to ge :
a coroner’s jury to find St verdict
from over-heating in the water. The
balance of the gang left, and I had
to go it alone. I got so inured to
the cold that I could :usii out of the

Recently Dr. William . Calweli
noticed in an Edinbuig paper tbe
statement of. a person who claimed
to have been cured of that trouble
some disease, asthma, by the use of a
weed known as “Life Everlasting,’’
or balm, which glows in abundance
in all sections of the country. Mrs.
Calwell has long been a sufferer from
asthma, and she has tried many dif
ferent remedies without deriving
much benefit. The doctor, two weeks
ago, gathered a good quantity of the
weed and placed it in his wife’s bed
chamber.
-.The effect has been tc entirely* re
lieve her of the malady, and to af
ford her much comfort” She passes
no more sleepless nights, nor are her
waking hours any longer a burden.
The doctor also gave some of the weed
to Mr. J. H. Swank, ; who heretofore
had been afflicted with asthma,and ibis
morning he said . that si?»ce
he began the use of the
balm he has not suffered a particle,
from hie old ccraplaim. Some per
sons in using the herb make a pillow
of it, while others scatter it about the
room and carry a bunch on their pc*r-
sous, inhaling its rather disagreeable
odor at freqneut intervals. The rem
edy costs nothing and .if it possesses
the healing powers claimed for it
there will be many a poor mortal,
particularly at this time of the year,
vho will seek ,relief through it,

A Pocket Key to Weights ai>«l Illras-
ures,
A curious—at least, it is said to be a
fact—and one little known, is that the
United States nickel five cent piece
furnishes a key to metric measures and
weights. This coin is too centimeters
in diameter and its weights is five
grammes. Five of them placed in a.
row will give the length ol & decimeter
and two of them will weigh f a deca
gramme. As a kiloliter is a cubic
nieter, the key of the measure is also
the key to a measure of capacity.
A man who wantonly founded a
bit d with a rifle is reported by the
Muial Gnu ad tan as having made this
'frank coilicssion "It fluttered across
the tieVd; where i' lotiuwcd it, and
found the pancing sufiefer af its nest,
