SATURDAY, JULY 28,1883.
Howell C. Glenn has been con
firmed City Attorney of Atlanta by
the Senate, and all is again lovely.
The New Hampshire Legislature
ia pegging away, trying to elect a
United States Senator. The best thing
for them to do is to abolish the office
and go home.
The Constitution says the House of
Representatires drinks ten gallons of
ice wafer per day. That is very tem
perate, provided they do not mix it
with any other liquid.

A resolution introduced in
Senate Saturday for a joint committee
to inquire into the business of both
houses and report the earliest time
for adjournmet, was tabled.
Nxsf Orleans and
Louisiana are
taking precautionary steps to prevent
the introduction of yellow fever. It
is denied that ther^is'yellow'fever in
the city. It will bo there though,
we much fear.
If the University of Georgia is on a
boom, why do the trustees find it ne
cessary to reduce appropriations to
the branch colleges(?) and explain
things to the Legislature? So many
branches take the sap from the trunk.
That’s what’s the matter.
Hon Robert Toombs is mingling
with the law-makers. He says he did
hope he would die before it was nec
ccssary to have an operation perform
ed on bis eye, but he is getting so
strong and healthy again that the hope
has vanished.—Atlanta Journal.
Cholera is on the increase in Egypt.
Dispatches from Cairo-, dated the 24th,
states that five hundred deaths occur
red in that city on the day before.
The disease has broken out among
British troops stationed in Egypt, and
a number of them have died.
The contested election case from
Camden couuty, in which Anthony
Wilson, colored, claimed the right to
the seat of Daniel R. Proctor, was"* de
cided Wednesday last in favor of the
man of color, by a vote of 87 to 61, and
he took the oath of office.
Here is a truth, as expressed by the
Macon*Telegraph: “The Athens ne
groes lose no opportunity of bantering
the white people of that city to aeon-
test of violence. Matters go from
bad to worse, and in the end there
will be no help for it but to gratify
them.”

A dispatch from Norfolk,
dated July 24th, states that one man
had died on board the^steamer Andean,
of yellow fever. The vessel was lying
at quarantine, but put to sea to bury
the man. We very much fear that
the fever will gain a foothold in the
United States.
M. A. Dauphin, of the Louisiana
State Lottery, will bring suit against
Walter Q. Gresham, Postmaster Gen
eral, for $100,000, for alleged damages
to the company on account of his re
cent decision. The suit will be
brought against Judge Gresham in his
personal, not his official character.
A Call for More Water.
An interesting communication from
an intelligent correspondent upon the
subject of artesian water, will be found
elsewhere in this morning’s News and
Advertiser.
The enterprise suggested by him is
well worth the estimated cost, even as
an experiment; and there is no reason
to doubt the entire feasibility of the
work. Our artesian water is already
famous, and will prove a boon not
only to the city, bat to thousands of
suffering people elsewhere. What a
magnificent thing to have several min
eral waters within the space of ten feet
or less, thus affording a cure for a
more extended variety of complaints !
The well that it is proposed to uti
lize by placing in it a pump, is about I
480 feet deep, and the water comes
within ten feet of the surface. It was
abandoned on account of an accident,
and the present well sunk within four
feet of the abandoned one. This wa
ter can be brought to the surface by
means of a pump, and as it comes from
an entirely different &rata, is an en
tirely diffeient water, having no con
nection with onr 'present well. It is
cased for about 460 feet
It is our candid opinion that the city
could not spend a hundred dollars
with a greater prospect of present and
lasting benefit to the city. With two
distinct mineral waters of known cura
tive powers, there is nothing to pre
vent Albany from becoming a great
health resort; and, as a matter of
course, every citizen must partake of
the benefits arising from the presence
of visitors and settlers in our midst
W.e believe our city fathers are en
terprising enough to take hold of this
well and make it a blessing to our city
and surrounding country. We shall
Ijaje more to say on this subject at a
Some Xo’es From Atlanta.
Alanta, Ga , July 24 1883
—The “Is-»t hot enough for-you?’’
i.diot is as numerous here as in Al
bany, and has been in bis glory for
the past fortnight
—Speaking of the weather, I find
that ic is much wanner here in Atlanta
than in Albany. The nights are mnch
warmerhere than in ourseclion of the
State, and the atmosphere much more
oppressive. This may be due, in part,
to the crowded condition of the city;
but the delightful breeze that we get
from ihc Gulf throughout all Southern
Georgia does not got np as far ns At
lanta.
—I have met qptta a number of
South Georgia people in the city dar
ing the last week. The}' are all look
ing for a cool place, and they move on
to New Holland, Gainesville, Mount
Airy or some other favorite resort.

Juikie Martin J. Crawford, Asso
ciate Justice of the Supreme Court of
Georgia, died at the residence of Mr.
A. G. Redd, on Rose Hill, near Co
lumbus, at half-past six o’clock Sun
day eveuing last. Judge Crawford
was one of the purest men in public
life, and his place will be hard to fill.
Typhoid fever was the cause of his
death.
Tiie Thomasvillc and Northeastern
Railroad, notice of an application for
the charter of which appears in the
Emanuel Itemizer, if constructed will
run through the counties of Thomas,
Colquitt, Worth, Berrien, Irwin,
Montgomery, Wilcox, Telfair, Dodge,
Laurens, Emanuel and Burke. This
is a fine section of Georgia, and no
doubt would sustain the projected
road.
Telegraph corapauies cannot limit
their liabilities by sticking up a pla
card stating that all messages are
taken subject to delays, and condi
tions printed on their blanks. They
are subject to a penalty for a failure to
transmit a message promptly, and are
liable for any damage the sender of
a message may suffer on account of
unnecessary delays. They cannot
plead that a strike interrupted their
business.
The picscnt Legislature will be
handed down in history as the “Me
morial Legislature.’’ They have al
ready memoralized four great men—
Mill, Stephens, Jeukins and Uerschel
V ..Johnson. They will soon have to
suspeud that feature for want of ma
terial, unless Bob Toombs and a few
others will accommodate them by
shuffling off. But this is an excep
tional period. The death of great
men conics in avalanches, and the pale
spectre has had a harvest in Georgia
the past few months.
The Times-Democrat says that “as
innocent a vegetable as the tomato is
it almost caused a pool-smashing war
among the Chicago local freight agents.
The vexed question was whether it
was a fruit or a vegetable. A majority
contended it was the former, but an
aggressive minority insisted that it
was the latter, while one agent class
ed it as a mineral. After much bick
ering the high classification was
adopted, and the tomato is now sent
out of Chicago-, as fruit” They
should have referred the question to
the Telegraph and Messenger, and
probably the tomato might have been
classed along with the persecuted
“cuke.” At any rate, it would not
have been “truck ”
Another Fool Gone.
A dispatch dated Buffalo, July 24th,
say s'that: “Capt. Matthew Webb, the
noted English swimmer, perished in
an attempt to swim the Niagara whirl
pool rapids this afternoon. He w'as
rowed in a skiff to opposite the old
Maid of the Mist landing by John Mc-
Cloy, the* ferryman at the falls, and
leaped from the boat at 4:20 o’clock.
The daring swimmer passed the big
rapids all right, keeping the middle of
the stream. When he struck the
whirlpool he was rushed to the Ameri
can side wheTe the waves, it is esti
mated, are from thirty to forty feet
high, and the last seen, of him was
when he he threw up one arm. His
shoot o f the rapids was thrilling. His
intention was to pass the whirpool on
the Canada side. Webb leaves a wife
and two children in England. The re
refusal of the railroad and hotel
managers at Ihc falls to have anything
to do with what they termed his “go
ing to his death,” rendered the affair
financially a failure. The river has
been searched for two miles below the
whirlpool and no trace of the fool
hardy man can be found, and it is gen
erally conceded that he was engulfed
in the whirlpool.’’ Fools and drunken
men can pass through with safety for
a time what a sober or a sane man dare
not attempt. This is the providence
of God. lie pities the unfortunate,
but sometimes it becomes necessary to
make examples of them as a warning
to otlierp. Capt. Webb was a good
example, and the - Lord knew his op
portunity.
General Assembly leave Atlanla^to
spend Sunday.
—The “leader of the Hon e” has not
yet developed. Messrs. Little, of
Muscogee, Harris, of Bibo, Rankin, of
Gordon and Iloge, of Fulton, are re
garded as the ablest lawyers in the
House,Jand always command the at
tention of the body when they rise to
speak, bat neither of them has such
swayfas Turner orHammond held when
they weie members of the Legislature.
—Mr. Morse, of the Brunswick and
Western railroad, is here to-day, on
business before the Railroad Coinmi.j-
sionere, 1 believe. He informs me
that he expects to run a train over
Flint river, on his own track and
bridge, on the first of Angust. He al
so speaks in the most confident and
positive terms about the extension of
his road Westward from Albany. And
just here I may remark that it is now
an open secret that the extension will
take in Dawson on .its route. This
much of the route, at least, has been
decided upon.
—There :s no talk of adjournment
in the Legislature yet. The bill redis
tricting the State has not reached its
third reading in either house, but the
fact has already developed that the
bill reported by the committee will
meet with a stubborn opposition, and
it is probable that the measure will be
wrangled over for a week or more. A
good many Congressmen and aspirants
for CongressioLal honors have been
hanging around Atlanta recently, for
the purpose, it may be naturally in
ferred, of influencing members of the
General Assembly to adopt their views
and further their respective interests
in the matter of redistricting the State,
I am pleased to be able to state, how
ever, that none of these hangers-on
hail from the Sccjnd District.
M.
The County’s Growth.
That our town and county are on
the upward inarciican but be ob
servant to every one. The town is
rapidly growing, strangers are con
stantly flocking to our city seeking
homes and investments here, while in
valids from every portion of the
country are testing, at all seasons of
the year, the health-giving waters of
our artesian well. The City Council
are doing all in their power to make
the city attractive, and the demand for
houses and stores cannot be filled.
New stores and dwelling houses will
be erected for rent this fall and the
demand partially supplied, while
many private dwellings will be erect
ed. Vacant city lots have advanced
in v l"c and are at present difficult to
pur~uase, and farms in the county will
bring better prices than for years, if
offered upon the market. The Receiv
er of tax returns reports an increase
of taxable property over last year of
$169,503. The aggregate value of the
whole property returned is $2,625,-
537.
With our present board of County
Commissioners and a free bridge, the
tax returns another year will be likely
to show a still greater and even more
gratifying increase.
The New York Times y canvass of
the country for “Presidential Prefer
ences” has shown it a new; kind of
“Solid South,’* so it confesses—a
“Solid South” of Federal office-hold
ers. President Arthur was declared
to be the first choice of 64 Republican
correspondents. Of these 38 were lo
cated in the South, and of these 38
nearly all were office-holders. This
gives the Times an opportunity to say
that “the office-holders control the
portion of the Republican party in the
Southern States. It may be said fur
ther that they are made office-holders
chiefly for t’.ia* purpose.” The Times
is firmly convinced that any man in
the Presidential chair can secure near
ly solid delegations to the Republi
can nominating convention from the
South, if he will only manipulate the
office-holders properly. “If it is true
that President Arthur is working by
means of Federal appointments in the
South to secure its 300 delegates in
convention, and thereby a renomina
tion, he is working against the best
interests of the party aud probably
England invaded the shores of
Egypt and slew thousands ot the help
less Mohammedans with sword and
musket; Egypt is now sending a ghost
ly avenger among the English in the
form of cholera. Egypt may thus get
even with her foe. A dispatch from
London says that “several cases of ad
mitted cholera still exists in East End.
It seems impossible to stamp the mal
ady oiit m that district. There is as
yet no scare in the city, although it is
not denied that what cholera there is
here .came direct in shipping from
Egypt, The gravest cause for any im
mediate alarm exists in the fact that
the scourge had strong hold iu Alex
andria before its ex’stence was ac
knowledged by the sanitary authorities
there or they had quarantined the
port. There are several vessels due in
London which left Alexandria just be
fore the quarantine there, and their ar
rival is dreaded. The government is
doing all.in its power to prevent an
epidemic in the East End. Sanitary
lectures are delivered free, and fre
quently meetings for sanitary organi
zation are numerous, and rules and
pamphlets are published and distrib
uted free. It cannot be denied that
cases of diarrhcea and dysentery are
unusually common in the East End,
aud the weather, which has been
rainy, chilly and humid, has been quite
favorable for these species of choleraic
symptoms.
The telegraph operators’ strike con
tinues, and most of the big dalies are
full of strike news from all points.
The latest important news we have
heard is embodied in a special to the
New Oilcans Times-Democrat dated
New York, July 22nd: “It is said
late to-night that President Garrett,
of the Baltimore and Ohio Company,
came here and had a conference with
the American Rapid people, and it
was agreed to form a combination
against the Western Union. They
then went to John Campbell, manager
of the strikers, and he agreed to fur
nish them a full quota of the best op
erators to go to work to-morrow.’’ It -self-last Saturday evening. A party
seems trom this that the Western Un
ion, which is controlled by Gouid, is
about to be squeezed. There will be
fun and low rates, perhaps, if war
takes place between those great monop
olies. Let it come.
The Albany News oughtnottobe
jealous of its prosperous neighbor
Thomasville just because Thmnasville
has a flourishing college and Albany
has not—Union and Recorder.
The News and Advertiser, if that
is the abbreviated party referred to,
t ikes great pride in the ‘ Young Fe
male College” at Thomasville, which
is the only one there. As to the
other schools there, we wish them
all well. Albany has three flourish
ing High Schools, one male, and two
female, but they arc not University
suckers, and arc not called Colleges.
Let Thomasville and every other
place build Colleges, say we, but do
not let them sap the University of
Georgia, and rob her of her name.
But if these branches must be main
tained, let them be called by their
proper names—preparatory depart
ments.
The strikers have stood out one
company at least, and have gained all
they asked, as will be learned by
the following dispatch, dated New
York, July 27 th: “Satisfactory
arrangements having been made
between the Brotherhood of Tele
graphers of the United States and
Canada and the American Rapid Tele

Washington, July 18.—A circular
was issued to-day fiom the office of
the Thiid Assistant Postmaster-Gen
eral, officially notifying the Postmas
ters throughout the United Slates of
the reduction in postage rate-*, to take
effect the 1st of October, and directing
them to make preparations for it. Post
masters are notified that it is desirable
to have as a small a stock of the pres
ent 3-cent postage stamps and stamped
envelopes as possible on hand when
the reduction rates go into effect, and
they are accordingly directed to limit
their r qnisitions for stamps and en
velopes of this denomination to such
quantities as upon careful estimate
they may deem sufficient to last until
the 1st of October. They are also in
structed to lake all the available
means, without incurring any expense,
to call public attention to the coming
reduction, so purchasers may not ac
cumulate an unnecessary supply of $•
cent stamps and envelopes.
The circular also directs that an no
arrangements have yet been made for
the redemption of 3 cent stamps and
envelopes in the hands of Postmasters,
or forHheir exchange by Postmasters
of th >se stamps and envelopes in the
hands of private holders, until further
notice Postmasters wlil not make ex
changes* for the public nor return to
the department the stock that remains
on their hands after October 1st
Postmasters are, however, notified
that as the 2 and 3-cent stamps
and envelopes of the present
issue will continue to bo valid after
that dale, they must be accepted ia
t le pa\ ment of postage when offered
in proper amounts and that 3-cent
stamps can be used in combination with
other denominations on letters requir
ing more than one rate of postage, and
