After taking in all the sights of the Hill City, banqueting and dining for a couple of days, the Georgia editors left We print on the first page of this evening’s Herald a memorial pre pared by General Henry Morgan and adopted by the Supreme Court of Georgia at Atlanta, upon the life and character of the late Hon. Louis Arn- heim. Mr. Arnheim represented Dougherty county in the Legislature for two consecutive terms prior to his death, and the beautiful tribute that has been paid him by the gifted Gen. Morgan will be read with interest and preserved by the friends and admirers of Mr. Arnheim. Our Worth county correspondent, whose interesting letter is printed elsewhere In the Herald, puts a more hopeful and encouraging aspect upon the political situation In that county than it has worn since the opening of the present campaign. The thing for the Democrats of Worth to do, now that they have purged their Executive Committee of all Third Partyltes, is to hold a primary on the 80th of July and elect delegates to the Congres sional convention in compliance with the recommendation of, the Distriot Executive Committee, and the dele gates thus elected will be seated. COEIIX TOBK. From Thursday’* KVENlNfl IIkhai.d. The readers of the Herat-I "will re- yCsteftlay oh their Western'trip, member a letter that wad published in Tuesday’s Herald as coming from Hon. O. B. Stevens. In the prcfatqry comments upon the letter ft was stated that the original was in our hands. And so it is. The Herald does not deal in fakes nor does it publish bucket letters or com- uiunicntlousofatiy kind from unknown writers or correspondents. The letter which we published from Mr. Stevens on Tuesday was written to a prominent and reliable farmer of tin adjoining county. The name of the gentleman to whom the letter was addressed was omitted I11 the publica tion, for reasons which will be appar ent to everybody, but the letter was none the less genuine, But il seems that candidate Stevens doesn't like to stand In the light in which this letter puts him, and lie wants to get rid of it. This morning tile editor of the Hkiiald received the following telegram from him : Tmi.MASVit.LE, Ga,, July 14, 1882. To II. M. Meluto»lii Med me morning train with origi nal letter you published twelfth, > U. B. Stevens. he editor of flic Herald met Mr. Stevens as requested, and hail tlte “original letter” ill his pocket. “I would like to see l lull'Met tor,” said Mr. Stevens, “Do you deny having written it?” we asked. 1 don't know whether 1 do or not; let me see it anil then I’ll tell you whether I wrote it or not,” We declined to show him the letter unless He first denied having written it, telling him that we didn’t propose to show him the letter merely to grati fy his curiosity as to which of his would-be constituents hud given him away. He. then waived all that and asked to see the signature to the letter. We Bliowed him this, and then lie said lie didn’t write it. “Then give me yoiirdeninl in writ ing, and lam ready to show up and have you do the same.” “All right.” “All aboard!” called out the conduc tor of tlie Columbus Southern train, on which 51 r. Stevens was going home. “Send me your written denial by mall,” said the editor, as lie shook hands with tile departing candidate for Congress. “All right, hut I’d like to have yoh slute in your tbls'evgtiihg’s paper that I deny having written that letter.” Thus ended the brief interview. Wo have given Mr. Stevens the ben efit of Ills deninl. 5[eantlme. we hold tlie “original letter,” written on two pages of O. B. Stevens’s printed letter heads, and rig tied ns if by that gentle man himself, “O. B. Stevens.” Now, If Mr. Stevens didn't write that letter somebody over at Dawson has been taking great liberty with his name, and ills explanation of the mat ter will he awaited by tlie IIerald and tlie public with, interest.

Mr. Wm. J. Speer, Assistant State Treasurer, is bondsman for Treasurer Hardeman to tlie extent of $60,000. A few days ago a judgment was obtained against 51r. Speer for $5,000, nnd when the Sheriff weut to collect it, he oould not And a bit of property or other assets to levy on. The question Is, what has Mr. Speer gat to represent that $60,000 for which lie is responsible to tlie State in case of default? •*«. Tlie Republicans in tlie State of Georgia nre by no means discouraged by their past record, but are, It seems on tlie wur path again tills year. The State Republican convention convenes in Atlanta on the 10th of August, and nt'tlmt time, in spite of the knowledge of slife defeat, they will probably put. out-a tjtnte ticket. But this Is not-all. Col. Buck, the Republican leader, de' dares that the Republicans will put out candidates for Congress in every distriot iii the State. It is hard to, tell what encouragement they have re ceived. They must think that the Third Party is going to split the solid Democracy of tlie State. The elec thins will tell how bail their delusion really is. . K. Oil. 10 Cent* n linllou. Best Water-white Oil, 150 percent,, at 10c. per gallon. L. S. Plonsky, the grocer. 25-tf A SHOOTING SCRAPE.

The v«ni Indie* Who Are la Fat Up The Breeai Drill. Pilot Hirer Htraatp. Leaky, Ga, July 18th, 1892. To the Editor of the Herald.—- Our Couiln Tobe has been, for sev eral days past, rummaging around in Decatur county. Hit headlight seems to be somewhat cracked, and he has to take the by-paths and wiregrass trails through the piny woods for fear be may, unconsciously, run against a Democratic bomb whizzing along the pnblle highway. The last heard of him, after a Democratic bombardment the other day, he was moving off in the direction of Flint river swamp. A Di.putc Between Two Darkle* Bad* iu Bl*#d*hed. The young ladies who are prepar ing to give an exhibition broom drill at Willingham’s Hall, in connection with the Albany Guards’ entertain ment on the evening of next Wednes day, the 20th inst., have gone heart and soul into the work of drilling, and meet every afternoon at Willingham’s Hall, where they are instructed in the “broom taotics” by Sergeant A. F. Coles, of the Guards, who is captain of the “bevy.” “Bevy” is the word used to desig nate the organization, for the mem bers won’t allow themselves to he oalled by any name that is ever ap plied to members of the other sex. Here are the names of the “bevy,” as furnished us by one of them, and a glance at their names will be sufficient to show the readers of the Herald that they are among Albany’* bright est, most beautiful and accomplished daughters. They are Misses Fonda Gilbert, Dita Bostick, Julia Clay Cox, Louise Cox, Bessie Gilbert, Mamie Hllaman, Rosa Meriwether, Mary Muse, .Maud Fitts, Jennie Price, Elia Pope, Alatia West- brood, Addle Armstrong,. Eva Lou Westbrook, Maria Eppes and Eva Price. Now, the mention of these nan will prove amply sufficient, without further recommendation, to bring out a large crowd, for the sight will bo one of the prettiest ever vritnessed In Albany* The other features of the entertain' ment will also be interesting and at tractive, and the Guards ought |to he greeted by a crowded house. Tlie steamer City of Albany, which is anchored at the foot of Broad street, was tlie scene Of a difficulty, about 8 o'clock Wednesday, whloh resulted in a Negro being badly, though not seriously shot. Henry Taylor and George Johnson are hands on the steamer. It seems that during the last trip a colored pas senger failed to take away his pistol when he left the boat at some point down the river, and this morning Johnson and Taylor got into a dispute about who should keep it until it could be returned to its rightful owner. Taylor had the pistol, and Johnson caught up a couple of rocks and started after him. Taylor retreated, but finally turned and fired. The ball struck just above the left nipple, and, striking the bone, glanced upward and lodged under the skin of the throat. The wounded man wasn’t hurt bad enough to prevent him from walking up town, where he had his injuries at tended to by Dr. Davis, Those who saw the difficulty say Taylor was justifiable in doing the deed, but Johnson swore out a warrant for his arrest, and he was brought up before Magistrate Robert for commit ment trial. The wounded Negro was too sick, however, to attend court, so Taylor was released on a $260 bond, whloh be readily gave. 0*1 At Aim Col. B. W.
