be the gainer thereby.
Gov. Blackbubs, of Kentucky, has

We feel impelled to say that the

Da. Haygood will find it a long hill

The Savannah, Florida and West

pleted the steel railing of its nfain
line all the way from Savannah to
Thomasville, a distance of 200 miles,
and relaid twelve miles of the track

point of junction with the Chattahoo-’

the great railroad systems of the
South, aud is rabidly becoming one of
tbe best equipped.
Judge Jebe Black was a great man.
Had he done nothing else, his answer
to Bob Ingcrsoll’s infidelity should
immortalize him. Judge Black died
with a prayer on bis lips. The fol
lowing was his prayer: “Oh, Thou
beloved and most merciful Heavenly
Father, from whom I had iny being,
and in Whom I have ever trusted, if it
be Thy will grant that my suffering
end, and that I speedily be called
home to Thee, and, oh bless and com
fort thee, my Mary!”
A circular has been forwarded to
all the editors of the journals publish

Five prizes of $100 each are offered
for the five best essays upon the sub

writers and attract considerable
notice from abroad. Papers con
taining the essays will be distributed
to visitors at the Louisville and Cin
cinnati Expositions.
A touching incident occured on the
Georgia Railroad the other day. A
lady noticed on the seat before her a
woman, whose refined appearance led
her to engage in conversation with
the stranger. Noticing the latter’s
beautiful babe, she expressed admira
tion. “Yes,” she said with a sigh,
“beautiful, but blind.’’ Then point
ing to two other children by her side,
she added.* “That is not all—these,
too, are blind.” The sad announce
ment brought tears to the eyes of the
listeners. The mother’s sorrowful
lot and the children’s sad future awak
ened the deepest interest.
Gov. Blackburn, of Kentucky, tells
of a young man who was wounded in
the head by a pistol ball. After fie
bad apparently recovered he robbed a
store of a lot of stuff that was of no
value to him, loaded it into a wagon,
and hauled it into the woods, where
he concealed the whole property. lie
was sent to the penitentiary. He serv
ed his time out, and, going home, broke
into the same store, took tho same
class of goods, which he put into the
buggy he had run off with before, and
concealed the tilings in the place he
had selected on the occasion of his first
offence. Once more he was sent to the
penitentiary* and had nearly completed
his second term, when the prison doc
tor gave it as his opiniou that the
bullet which had struck the young
man’s head indented the skull suf
ficiently to press on the brain,
and that this was the reason
that he committed the burgla
ries. So the prisoner was sent home
He lost no time in loading up the
old buggy again, precisely as before,
and was returned to the penitentiary.
“I then said that I was going to trepan
that fellow's head il it killed him,’’
says the Governor, who is a physi
cian, “and I did successfully. Then I
pardoned the young man. He behav-
c4 himself like a perfect gentleman,
sir, and never made the slightest at
tempt to steal a pin.”
Our Fine Forests.
l)r. Loring, Commissioner of Ag
riculture, has been interviewed upon
the subject of the pine lumber pro
duct of this country.
Recent investigations showed, he
said, that the supply of pine in New
Hampshire and Vermont is now com
pletely exhausted, and that the spruce
would last only seven years in the foi -
tner and four in the latter State. In
r Maine, which is the leading Eastern
lumber State, the pine supply is good
for four yearj longer, while the spruce
will hold out 15. The other Eastern
States average about the same. There
will be no native lumber for sale in
Pennsylvania in 1898, none in New
York in 1800. Nor is the situation
much better in the West. The Min
nesota and Michigan forests will be
exhausted, he predicted, in 10 years,
while Wisconsin will hold out only
20 years.
To the South, however, the country
looks for its future supplies of mer
chantable woods, and the Southern
forests are practically inexhaustible.
Louisiana is good for a century, Mis
sissippi for 150 years, Texas for 250
years and Arkansas for 300 years. In
fine, four-fifths of the South is Iu for
ests, and these forests contain the very
finest timber.
Such is the situation as described
by Dr. Loring, and such are the bright
prospects ahead,uidess we pursue the
•policy of selling all out woodlands at
once at the lowest figures possible and
cutting down all our forests now.
Terrible Storm in tbe Went.
Minneapolis, fckn Aug. 22.—A
heavy storm raged West and South of
here yesterday. The wires are down
in both [direct ions and news hard to
obtain. The report comes from Kas-
so, on the Winona and St. Peter Rail
road, that the cyclone passed ovorthat
place, blowing down buildings, killing
two persons and injuring several oth

S03IE NOTES FROM ATLANTA.
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 17th, 1883.
To a Southwest Georgia “member’*
who has business at home demanding
his attention, the outlook here, so far
as an early adjournment is concerned,
is anything but satisfactory. New
matter continues to pour in, and all
efforts to cut it off are fruitless. Some
of the oldest and most experienced
members of the House now say that
it will take until the 1st to the 15th of
October to properly dispose of all tbe
measures now pending and “on deck”
in both bouses. This is not very en
couraging to those of us who come
from the “Cotton Beit” and want to
get home by the first of September.
At least one-fourth of the time ol
the House is taken up.in suspending
the rules. Under the tedious machine
ry provided by the constitution, the
roles must be suspended three times
in order to introduce a local bill and
get it read the first time, and have it
referred to its appropriate committee,
after the Legislature has been in ses
sion fifteen days. When it is remem
bered that the first fifteen days of 4 every
session is taken'np by electing Judges,
Solicitors and other officers, it can be
readily seen that the fathers ot our con
stitution made a mistake. They ought
either to have cut off or inhibited
local legislation altogether, or left off
some of the tedious restrictions which
make it so hard to obtaiu. The consti
tution does not cut off or lessen local
legislation in the least, but merely
makes it harder to get. Georgia, with
all her varied territory and diversified
interests and industries from tbe
mountains to the seabord, must of ne
cessity have much local legislation,
and it is-to be hoped that the many
hindrances and pull-backs thrown
around this class of legislation by our
new constitution will soon be»removed.
Well, as you have already learned
and announced, the million-dollar new
capitol bill has passed the House. It
was amended from beginning to end
when under consideration in Committee
of the whole House, and such restric
tions and safeguards were thrown
around the bill that many who would
have opposed the measure in its origi
nal form, voted for it. Our Capt. A
C. Westbrook is here, and I have
■heard it intimated that if the bill be
comes a law and the five Commission
ers provided for in the bill are elected
by the present General Assembly, he
will enter the race for a place on the
Commission. Southwest Georgia will
certainly be entitled to a* representa
tive on the Commission, and if Capt.
Westbrook concludes to make the race
he will stand a good chance to be
elected. Aside from the consideration
to which his practical sense and famil
iarity with State House requirements
will entitle him, he has an extensive
acquaintance and many friends in this
Legislature, and I know of no man from
our section of the State who would
make a better lace for the position.
H. I. Kimball arrived in Atlanta this
morning, and says that he has came
to view the ruins of the great hotel
that bore his name, aud to see the
house rebuilt. Atlanta cannot afford
to belong without the Kimball House
or another hotel equally as large, and
if Mr. Kimball can build it with
Northern capital he ought to be al
lowed to do it. Say what you will
about Kimball, he is a great developer,
and has done more good than harm in
Georgia. I shall not undertake to in
dorse all of his plans and methods, but
I can readily see now that just such a
man as he is was needed in Georgia
at the fiiuc he came.
The House is wrestling with the bill
to redistrict the State to-day. The in
dications at this writingare, that unless
an afternoon session is held, a vote
will not be reached on the bill to-day.
Tho members from the Second Dis
trict arc keeping quiet, and a majority
of them will vote for the bill rccom
mended by the majority report of the
committee. This bill will leave our
district just as it is at present, except
that it takes off Quitm «n county and
gives it to the Third. The bill re
ported by the minority of the com
mittee leaves the Second just as it is
now. Most of us would be satisfied
with either bill, but will vote with the
majoriiy of the committee because
tho.-e of our members who are on the
committee agreed to it, and f or the
further reason that we are afraid that
if the slate is “rubbed out,” and a
new arrangement is attempted in the
House, we may fare worse.
McIntosh.
Atlanta, Ga , Aug. 21st, 1883.
There is not a dude in the House,
but “they say” there is a pair of them
in the Senate.
Mr. Middlcbrook, of Newton, is the
interrogation point ol tlie^Ilouse. He
has; ncv?r risen to ask the Chaplain a
question during prayer, however.
Representatives Rountree, of Brocks,
and Eason, of Telfair, arc the belles of
the House. They are not of the dude
sort, however, but show their good
sense in other things beside their
fondness for the fair sex.
The old members say that this is
the most temperate Legislature they
have ever seen, although the general
local option bill barely pa-sed the
House and i3 in danger of being killed
in the Senate.
Mr. Jenkins, ot Putnam, is one of
the ablest young lawyers in the
House. He tackles constitutional ques
tions, and wrestles with them with
a degree of odeptness aud ease that
would do credit to a man of riper
years.
Mr. Rankin, ot Gordon, Speaker
pro tern., has been presiding over the
House for several days, Speaker Gar-
ard being absent on account of the
death of his little boy. Mr. Rankin
is oue of the ablest and most experi
enced legislators in the House, and is
as ready and clear-headed in the chair
as he is upon the floor.
The bili of Mr. Harris, of Bibb, to
increase the legal rate of interest, or
rather to prevent the plea of usury on
any rale of interest not exceeding
twelve per cent, where the party
agrees to pay such rate, occupied most
of the time this morning. The bill
provoked considerable discussion, and
was finally defeated by an overwhelm
ing majority, or rather it was laid
upon the table after a test vote.
Under a joint resolution, the roll
of counties was^ called for the intro
duction of new matter the last time,
in both houses, yesterday, and sevexal
resolutions naming a day lor final ad-
ed ten inches in circumference. Ef- joaroment were introduced in the
forts to obtain particulars are in vain.
The clond to the West and North was
a heavy one, and fears are expressed
.by many here that great damage lias
been done, but the wires being down
no particulars nave been received.
House: None of these were acted
upon, however, more than to lay .them
on the table. No more new matter
can now be introduced except by
unanimous consent. The last bill in
troduced in tbe Hru-e wns- nnmbrr
1029. Of this nuulber only about 3SO
have been disposed of in the Home
and sent to the Senate.
The fight over the redistricting
bill will be renewed on Thursday.
There is considerable opposition to the
bill as it passed the Senate, and which
is supported by a majority of the
House Com mitte, and the fight is get
ting to be bitter. The mo«t of the op
position comes from the Eighth, Sixth
and Tenth Districts, and three or fonr
of the members from the Second have
joined the minority. Every member
of Ihe new Eighth opposes the bill in
its present shape, and they claim that
the d ; strict will be lost to the Demo
cracy if the apportionment proposed
by the majority prevails. It is claim
ed upon the other hand, however, that
the past record of the counties com
posing the district shows & clear
Democratic majority. If the House
should fail to agree to the hill as it
passed the Senate, there Is no telling
how long it will take to dispose of
this vexed question.
Messrs. Harris, of Bibb. Little, of
Muscogee. Reese, of Wilkes, Hodge
and Halsey, of Falton, Falligant, of
Chatham. Redding, of Pike, Hawks, of
Sumter. Watson, of McDuffie, Sweat,
of Clinch, Ray, of Coweta, Fite^ of
Bartow, Gary, of Richmond, and last
but not least, McGregor, of Warren,
do moat of tbe speaking in fhe House,
while Mr. Middlebrook, of Newton,
asks “the gentleman a question,” Mr.
Jordan, of Hancock, makes the mo
tions and offers the resolutions, and
Messrs. Spence, of Mitchell, Cren
shaw, of Troup, and"Humber, of Put
nam, call for “the previous question.”
I do not mention any of these gentle
men, or their respective character
istics, in any spirit of unkindness or
criticism, for they are all good mem
bers, and the foregoing list embraces
many of the ablest members of the
House. McIntosh.
A THOUSAND DOLLARS.
The Bad Boy’s Ideas Regard I us; the
Wisdom of Solomon,
Milwaukee Son.
“SU down on the ice box/’ said the
boy to the grocery ntan. “What you
need is rest. You are overworked.
Your alleged brain is equal to wilt
ed lettuce, and it can devise ways
and means to hide rotten peaches
under good ones, so as to sell them
to blind orphans, but when it comes
to grasping great questions your
small brain cannot comprehend them.
Your brain may go up sideways to a
great question, and rub against it,
but it cannot surround it and grasp
it. That’s where you are deformed.
Now, it is different with me. I caii
raise brain to sell to you grocery
men. Listen! This Solomon is cred
ited with being the wisest man, and
yet history says he had a thousand
wives. Just think of itl You have
got one wife and pa has got one,
and all the neighbors have one, if
they have had any kind of luck.
Does not one wife make you pay at
tention? Wouldn’t two wives break
you up? Wouldn’t three cause you to
see stars? How would ten strike \ou?
Why man alive, you do not grasp
the magnitude of the statement
that Solomon had a thousand wives.
A thousand wives, standing side by
side, would reach about four blocks.
Marching by fours it wauld take
them twenty minutes to pass a given
point. The largest summer resort
hotel only holds five hundred people,
so Sol would have had to hire two
hotels if he took his wives out for a
day in the country. If you would
stop and think once in a while you
would know more.’*
The grocer}’ man’s eyes began to
stick out as the bad boy continued,
as though the statistics had never been
brought, to his attention before, but
he was bound to stand by his old
friend Solomon, and he said : “Well.
Solomon’s wives must have been dif
ferent from our wives of the present
day.’’
“Not much,” said the boy, as he
saw that he was paralyzing the gro
cery man. “Women have been about
the same ever since Eve. She got
mashed on the original dude, and it
stands to reason that Solomon’s wives
were no better limn the mother ot
the human race. Statistics show that
one woman, out of every ten is red
headed. That would give Solomon
an even hundred red-headed wives.
Just that hundred red-headed wives
would be enough to make an ordin
ary man think there was a land fairer
than this. Then there would be, out
of the other nine huudred, about
three hundred blondes, aud the other
six hundred would be brunettes, anil
may be he had a few albinos and
bearded women and fat women and
dwarfs. Now, a thousand women had
appetites, desires for dress and style,
the same as other women. Imagine
Solomon saying to them, “Girls,- let’s
all go down to the ice cream saloon
and have a disli of ice cream.” Can
you, with vour brain muddled with
codfish anil new potatoes, realize the
scene that would follow? Suppose,
after Solomon’s broom bridge had
got seated in the ice-creamery, qnc of
the red-heatled wives should catch
Solomon winking at a strange girl
at another table.
“You may think Solomon did not
know enough to wink, or that he was
not that kind of a flirt, but he iniot
have been, or he could never have
succeeded in marrying a thousind
wives in a sparsely settled country.
No, sir. it looks to me as though Solo
mon iti his glory, was an olu masher,
and from what I have seen of men
being bossed around with one wife,
I don’t envy Solomon his thousand.
Why, iu-t imagine that gang of
wives going and ordering fall bon
nets. Solomon would have to be a
king, or a Vanderbilt to stand it.
Ma wears $5 silk stockings, and pa
kicks awfully wliervtiie bill conn sin.
Imagine Solomon putting up for .a
few thousand pair of silk stockings.
I aiu glad you will sit dowu and
reason with me iu a rational wav
about some of these Bible stories that
take my breath nwav. The minister
stands me off when I try to talk with
him about such things, and tells me
tos’udy the parable of the Prodigal
Son. a»«d the deacons teils me to ac
ami S'»-«k my head. There is darn
little encouragement for a boy to try
and figure out things. How wouid
you like to have a thousand red
headed wives coming into the store
this minute and tell you they wanted
you to send carriages around to the
h Hi-e at 3 o’clock, so they could go
tor a drive? Or how would you
lik i to have a hired girl come rush
ing in and tell you to send up six
hundred doctors that six hundred of
your wives lmd been takeu with chol
era inorbtl*? Or
“O, don’t mention it,’’ said the
grocery man with a shudder. “1
wouldn’t take Solomon’s place and be
the natural proctector of a thousand
wives if anybody x would give me the
arth. Think of getting *.p of a cold
wiiitir morning and buildtng l,0CO
fires ! ‘ Think of two thousand pair
of hands in a fellow’s hair! Boy,
you have shown me that Solomon
needed a guardian over him. He
didn’t have sense.’’
“Yes,*’ says the boy; “and think
of two t ousund feet, each one as
cold as a brick of chocolate ice cream.
A man would want a back ns big as
the fcncoto a fair ground. But I don’t
want to harrow up your feelings,
t must go and put some arnico on
pa. He has gone home, and says he
has been to a summer resort, on a
vacation, and he is all covered with
blotches He says it is mosquito
bite*, but ma thinks he has been shot
full of bird-shot by some watermelon
farmer. Ma hasn’t got any sympa
thy for pa because he didn’t take
her along.”
