Thk joint, debate arranged to tnke place between Post, Klllngton, Turner and other Third Party leaders and Congressman Livingston, Capt. Evan. Howell aiid other Democratic speakers at Douglassville on Tuesday, was a sort of failure, owing to the fact that .the Third Party speakers couldn’t stand the racket, and Went off to them selves to hold a sort of secret, meeting «f their own. The Third Party lead ers in Georgia are on the run. Now ani> then a suh-Allinnre or a militia district in Georgia Is seen to •rise In Its majesty and say “goodbye" \o the Demooratlo party with a flour ish which seems to justify the sus picion that they are Inflated, as they triumphantly wave baok a last fare well, with some suoh self-inspired idea as would And fitting expression in, “Now ain’t we playin’ ,” or words to that effeot; while to the sober onlooker the aspect of the noisy little band is amusing, .Air Detrait, Mich., on Saturday last, a successfhf test was made of a subma rine boat designed and invented by George C.

It was made to Gpk and rise at will, and attaloedfaa^Ml of ten miles an hour when below the surface. In all its nlanaiuvres it maintained a horizontal position, which is a great improve ment in a submarine boat. It isshaped . like a cigar, with 'compressed sides, 4 feet long, 14 feet deep and 9 feet beam “Aiming the incidents of active war service, there arp no events more thrilling and more exciting than the charge, for In Its dash Is displayed the boldness, the fury of the occasion. We find an interesting article on this subject in the last number of The Century. During our late war there existed a marked difference between the yells of the opposing armies and the fact has been a pregnant source of comment. The notes and tones peoullar to eaoh of them were well defined, and led to their designation as the “Yankee” and thb “Rebel” yells. Southerners have always been recognized as people possessed of unfounded enthusiasm and ardor. Their peculiarities of birth, temperament and character, coupled with the fact that they were chiefly. an agricultural people in habiting n broad expanse of country but thinly settled, tended to Improve their voices for high and prolonged notes. The “Yankee” yell lacked In vocal brentli, pitch and resonance, from the fact that the soldiery of the North was drawn chiefly from densely settled portions of the country, from eltles aud towns. It Is ante to say that many of them had not elevated their vocal tones to within anything like their full enpan- Ity since their boyhood days. The “Yankee" yell wns nailed by the Federals n “oheer," and was intended for the word “hurrah," though that pronunciation wns never heard In charge. It was “Iloo-ray! Hoo-ray I" eto. The “Imo" littered with n low, short tone, nml the “ray” yelled with a long and high tone. Rut the “rebel" yell possessed n dis tinctive quality, penetrating and ter rifying. It was often licnrd on the field of battle nnd name forth spon taneously, “Woh-who-ey! who-eyt woh-how-cy I" The first syllable “woh,” short nnd low, and the second “who" with n very high nnd prolonged note defleoting upon the third syllnble “oj." It enthused the “Rebels," but wns usually terrifying to their enemies. I.et us rejoice Hint war is wltl) us only In memory, and that now there is no need of giving vent to a yell either North or South that is tended to en courage man to take human life, even If the taking of it seems justifiable. PHotiRass or this south. Hon. Carroll l). Wright, United States Commissioner of Labor, on Thursday evening of Inst week deliv ered an address at Nashville, Tenn., on the Progress of the Southern States from 1880 to 1890, In the course of which he said: “The Soutlierti States in 1880 pro duced 1187,1101 net tons of pig Iroh, nnd In .1800,1,800,000 tons wero produced. Ill sleeltlie South has made much progress. In 1880 the number of net tons was 4,860, and 111 1890 184,026. This Is a most encouraging outlook, and bespuaks for the South a steel in dustry 111 the future of whleli she will be proud. The largest ootton crop in the Soutli- ern States prior to the war was in 1800, wlien 4,609,770 bales were produoed. In 1871 It was 4,862,817 bales. In 1891 the production reached 8,062,697 bales, and 106,001 bales of the production were consumed in Southern mills, as against less than half that quantity ten years before. In I860 cotton seed oil mills orushed 1,007,200 tons, the product being worth 867,810,880 an Increase, in round num bers, In ten years of 891,000,000. The number of cotton mills fnorcased from 101 In 1880 to 884 in 1890, the number of spindles from about, five hundred thousand to nearly two million, and the product from 816,860,182 to $61,- 109,870. » Thk Oklahoma Tlmes-Journal calls uttentimi to the fact that for the llrst lime in the history of political Nation al conventions ill the United States the Republican National Convention at Minneapolis will' contain a full- blooded Indian, and that Indian will be a delegate from Oklahoma. He is “White Turkey," chief of the Shaw- nees. 11c Is a full-blood, and during the war assisted the Federal forces ill every way In liis power nnd command ed a uoraoanv of Indian soldiers. Albany, Ga., March I j Thk second annual report of Pasteur Institute of New York has Just been Issued, and furnishes some interesting statistics with reference to hydropho bia nnd Its treatment. During the year just ended 674 persons applied for treatment. In 461 of these cases it was demonstrated that the animals at tacking them were not mad, and the patients were sent back. In 118 cases the anti-hydrophobic treatment wns applied, It having been proved that the bites were from animals which were mad. Out of this number only 8 died of hydrophobia. Durlngthe year 42 deaths from this cause wero report ed, from various parts of the country, of persons who had not taken the treatment. Statistics show that from 26 to 40 per cent, qf_those who are bit. ten die. Tinder the Pasteur treatment only 8 out of 113 authentic oases died. During the two years of Its existence 298 persons have been treated at the -Institute. Mklox and fruit-growers' conven- T » p. tinea, tlona'will soon be the ordeqof the day. Gknbkai.

Mr. Buaink’s health Is getting to be vigorous enough again to disturb the present occupan.t of the White House. Bo many Congressmen are having tp run home at rrequent Intervals to look after their fences that absenteeism is seriously retarding business in Con-' gress. Tna Brooks county Alliance has re solved Itself into the Third Party, but two of the siib-Allianoes refused to renounce their Demooracy, and dis banded. Thk bid that Judge Atkinson made for the Alliance vote in his letter an nouncing his candidacy for Congtess is beginning to recoil on him. And It ought to. ' Thkiik will be very few peaches In Southwest Georgia this year, and the penr crop will bo almost a total fail ure. That Maruli freeze Is toblaipe.

Upon the prmplple of “giving the devil Ills due,” Col. Leonidas Livings ton Is entitled to oredit for making a mighty good Demooratlo speech and knocking the bottom out of the Third Party at Conyers on last Saturday. Now It Is rumored that Col. Living ston is going to stump tlie.Statg for Governor Northen’s re-eleotiou. I Col. Livingston Is one of your politicians who never lets his right hand know what his left hand is doing, and of whom it cannot be told to-da.v what he is going to do to-morrow. Thk crop bulletin. Issued by the United States weather service Satur day nfternonn gives a most encour aging repertof the condition of the fruit crop for 1892. “The fruit crop Is promising,” says the Acting Director In Ills Saturday’s report. So (lie Geor gia peach crop will, in spile of tlie frosts, be a success. Thk Savannah News scores a good point in the following: “The South had a bitter experience with political adventurers during reconstruction days. Then the ignorant Negro was used as a cat’s paw. Now, other ad venturers are trying to use honest and intelligent white farmers, and the wonder of it is that some Georgia farmers appear willingto be uspd.” TitKltcorgln Democracy is in a bad way. It’s afraid of tbe Alliance and of Itself. One tiling seems pretty sum The most turbulent Hill State in the South is beginning to as* itself: “Have I bitten off more than I can masticate?” Meanwhile Cleveland is making headway* and brother m bidden bowure of brother if tho latter hold au Alliance vote.—Chicago Inter Oocan. If the Inter Oeenn knows as little about the political sentiment of. tlie other Southern States as it seems to know about how Georgia stands on the Presidential candidates, it may aa well prepare Itself for some surprises. Georgia hasn’t “bitten off 1 ’its .Presi dential quid yet, and those papers and politicians who have pledged the State to Hill may find that they can’t deliver the goods. But the Inter Ocean need not lie looking in this direction for any comfort for the Re* publican party.
