* \ cast bis ballot for O. B. Stevens a3 the representative of his principles. I think Mr. Stevens now goes back squarely on hi3 address, and is content and anxious to be regarded as a Dem ocrat, seeking the Democratic nomina tion at the hands of Democratic con stituents. But it is, or should be, too late. First the Democracy had a right to complain of Mr. Stevens’ de sertion of their cause. Now he is un true to his address accepting the Cuth- bert.i”iance nomination, and plainly shows . himself anything for office. There is nothing in the vote3 cast by O. B. Stevens in the Georgia Legisla ture that entitles him to the confi dence of the Alliance, as such, for I think any man who will take trouble to investigate will find Mr. Stevens al ways against what might be called purely Alliance views and measures. How is it then—can’t the Alliance, if they insist upon the privilege of nam- ng the next Congressman from the Second district, at least name a man who has been, and still is, deservedly true to their principles, and somewhat acceptable to the party ? Many thousands of Democrats—like myself—would not care a straw if the candiu tr .a or is not an Allianceman, but for God's sake give us a man of char acter for brains and statesmanship. Who is under all circumstances a true Democrat to succeed Turner and up- fa >ld the high standard of ability and integrity erected for the Second dis trict. Randolph Democrat. The Primitive method of Striking Pare Seen la Vac In Thu City. THEY ARE AFTER CONGRES SIONAL SCALPS NOW. Some of The Leading- Houses who Desires vour Consigmuents Con- Did you ever see the old flint and steel method of striking fire? If you count your years beyond the three score period such a thing may not be a novelty to you, but to the present generation it would be quite interesting. The general use of the match has re tired the primitive method of using the Hint and steel, the matches are plenti ful and very cheap but if you should notice some young men as they pur chase a cigar you would think from the quantity of lucifers they put in their pocket that the supply of matches is about to be exhausted and we will be forced to go back to orig inal metlfbds. Nearly all of the present generation remember in interesting accounts given them by their fathers of the use of flint and steel in former days, but yesterday afternoon a reporter of tbe News and Advertiser saw the first and only contrivance of this kind. It was in the possession of an x>l<T ante-bellum darkey who is working with the waterworks laborers on Washington street. The old darkey is fond of smoking a pipe and when he felt sorely in need of the stimulous of the narcotic he stepped near the side walk, filled his pipe with the weed and drawing from liis pocket the flint and steel arrangement was soon extracting the comforting smoke. Several parties standing near noticed the old darkey’s movenunts and when they saw the unique manner in which, he obtained his fire they at once de termine 1 u,ocn inv-siigai,ion. The old darkey seem very much surprised; at their ignorance concerning the flint B. F. 8.

The flint rock, of course, is carried loose in the pocket. In operating it the old darkey held j the steel ever the cotton contained in j the horn and with a quick stroke of the flint across it the cotton was ignit- ; ed. In this way he produces fire j whenever he needs it. ! He is perfectly independent of 1 matches and does cot seem I to care whether any more are , manufactured. A certain gentleman i standing by who saw the old darkey I strike tire walked off with the remark, “I believe all the old time conveniences will yet come into use.” There is preserved in Trinity Col lege, Dublin, the harp whose notes were heard in Tara’s Hall when Brian Born was King, and the sight of which insyired Thomas Moore when he was. studying at old Trinity to write his famous song. malice toward the South as Chicago. For twenty-seven years, after the deadly strife of war was over, after banners were furled, after expiration of every kind demanded had been made—for twenty seven years the cit izens oi Chicago have kept up the ran cor of the strife of sectionalism and the maledictions of her citizens against this section have been too mean to be human. An inoffending people and an inof fensive section have been brutally n-aligned whenever occasion offered and when it did not offer, the press has been the agent of carrying to the people the sentiments of Chicago citi zens, sentiments that lor blackhearted villainy found no records in any an nals. Chicago now finds that she needs the aid and assistance of this section that has so long been the victim of her vile abuse. We do not know tiiat any Southern representive would oppose an sppro- priafion on the ground of partisan ship or prejudice, in fact this view of the opposition does not present ilselt and we are sathiiid our Southern members are too noble, too manly and too patriotic to to guided by such feel ings, if such they have. But it seems that constitutional obstacles line the pathway of the progress of that appro priation and SoaSt&n members will not consent to vote away the peopl money when they have not the right to do so. It begins to look like a retri bution seut on Chicago for her law and mean vindicativeness toward the Southern people. Looking at it from a patriotic stand point we feel that the appropriation ^should be made because it.is nod for Chicago alone but for the whole peo ple, for the purpose of making the great Columbian exposition a success. But if the appropriation is voted down and its defeat accomplished by South ern men wc cannot but feel that the Southern people have had their in nings and that retribution has come in “the eternal fitness of things.” THE BARBECUE AND POLITICS. The barbecue and the political gath erings over the State this summer have had a faint suggestion of the' ante hel ium gathering's when the Whigs and Democrats met in wordy war. The come-to-stay-all-day disposition of thqpeople has manifested their deep interest in the issues cnvolved and knowing that a great campaign year is in progress they seem determined to keep up thoroughly with the proces sion. In Northern, Middle and Southern Georgia the campaign has been opened in a lively manner and in the reports of the large gathering of the clans we notice that the basket dinner and the savory barbecue play a very important part. The people seem determined that while the mind may be charged with a heavy diet for digestion the gastric functions must not be overlooked and the inner man is required to keep along with the digestive process. But there is one healthy and en couraging sign connected, with the junction of politics and gastronomy. However much we may differ politi cally, however excitable the stump however exett The Third party wants Tom Winn to beat Pickett for tbe nomination in the Ninth district, because they fear thatPIckett can’t compete with Car ter.

I have dropped upon the Fourth district program today, and I think it can be safely stated that Col. Jack Turner, the National Alliance secre tary, will offer against Moses. Tur ner is a Tronp county man, and he has a phenomenal gift of oratory and a world ol figures at his command. It to understood that he has been select ed as the man to oppose Moses.

SEARCY IN THE SIXTH. r Ti e 'mpresslon ts that Col. Searcy, of G 'Bn, will be the Third party can didate in the Sixth. The fact that be recently declined the nomination for treasury at the hands of the Third party, seems to emphasis the pre sumption. THE GENERAL SCHEME. The managers cf the new movement are as dumb as clams, bnt it is easy to observe that they mean to make a live ly campaign in the Slate and that all the districts and all the State officers will have to be won by hard fighting. The sinister feature of all this move ment is the absolute stillness that sur rounds It. There are no newspapers In the State to encourage it, but tbonsands and ten thousand of circu lars and documents are being distrib uted from this city and elsewhere, which give It momentum, and from what I could learn today Third p rty candidates in every Georgia Congres sional district will be nominated, and if tbe Republican voters agree to stand by them there is trouble ahead and lots of it.

I do not care to carry about with me the consciousness of be. ig even the Innocent c-anse of unbalancing any man’s mental condition, but at the risk.of again setttng ablaze tbe smoul dering fire of our “Billy’s” ruin, I feel that I must say a word or two about the political status of this portion of the Second district. In the good old days of Whigs and Democrats every man gloried in be ing one or the other, a Whig or a Democrat, and accordingly enrolled himself in the ranks of his choice.to advocate boldly and openly the cause of the party he espoused. And in the good time of which I spent every man the courage of conviction, or the manliness to remain open- to convic tion by fair means in the hands or mouths of his adversaries.
