Brunswick reported 18 new cases of yellow fever yesterday, attributed to the sudden change in the weather. There were no deaths. The Texas cotton crop is reported at from 20 to 25 per rent short. Tiik first shipment of Florida oranges to Luro|>e this season was forwarded by the Fruit Exchange last week, from Juek sonville to Liverpool. John E. Russell, who is in nowise related to tic present Gov. William E Russell of Massachusetts, has been nominated for governorby thodemocrats of that state. Mrs. nml Miss Lester have gone to "Washington, ami have taken wiuterquar ters at the Cochran hotel. They saw very plainly that Congressman Lester would not be released from the extra session be fore the regular session would set in. It is reported that Senator Coi.qriTT has expressed a willingness to spend his last breath ill an effort to prevent the unconditional repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman bill. Sena tor Gor¬ don has taken a much more sensible view of Ids duty to his state. In Siam, the man who goes in debt sel dom gets out again, lie is stripped of his clothes and, bound in fetters, is obliged to work to pay the interest, which is so exorbitant that it takes all one can earn. It has been suggested that in this respect Siam very much resembles otir own coun¬ try. A.\ epidemic of diphtheria prevails in the town of Kiatone, N. Y., set on its rounds by every body kissing the bride at a recent wedding. Fifteen or twenty cases are traceable to the osculation,and one whole family—that of Ransom Rratt— haa been wiped out by the fool¬ ish indulgence. Senator Colquitt and hiscohortswho propose to defeat the administration's attempt to carry out the pledges oi the democratic national platform, w ill meet a day of record ng. Before they a rrogute to themselves the responsible duty of hold¬ ing Mr. Cleveland in line, they would best give him sufficient rope to prove his in¬ tention to walk out of it. When Senator Perkins was a young¬ ster in California, friendless und with only 92 in his pocket, a Mr. Knioht, a merchant, gave him a situation as por¬ ter, where he could earn regular wages, 9-lG.a month. lie never forgot the kind¬ ness. When he had made a place, for himself irilTie business world lie sent for his old employer, who hnd iu the mean¬ time met with misfortune, and gave him a bookkeepers place in his office worth ?176 a month. opening of the Augusta exposition has been postponed Irom October 17th to November 14th. This arrangement has b«*n agreed to for the purpose of al¬ lowing the introduction of exhibits that are now in the World’s Fair, and which will he removed from Chicago after the closing of the Fair on October 31st. This assures a much better display in Augusta than would otherwise be possi¬ ble, and the wisdom of ihe postpone¬ ment is apparent. Secretary Carlisle avers that the of¬ fice-seekers are as numerous in Washing¬ ton now us during the first months of the present administration, und that many who came up in March are still hanging around after positions that will not be filled until next summer, lie says if he gave them the time that they want he would not get time to eat or sleep; but he only gives them two days in the week, at which times the anxious throng makes its regular calls and reiterates its claims and its hopes. The anti repeal Senators have} put their heads together to prevent the Voor hees bill from ever coming to a vote, and they appear amply able to accomplish their design. The United States Semite long ago abolished tlie parliamentary rule of forcing a vote by calling for the original question, and left it optional with as small a minority as one-fifth 1 oj OI hrwU- ,.Krei, . ; , U ,, ^ ^ had ot o not. no l under n l the r , present rules there is no way of bringing the issue to a vote so long as twenty senators tire determined t) prevent it, and tlie same difficulty stands in the way of changing the rules. We notice that the First Congressional District Alliance, inst!, assembled in this tow n on the 14th bas^ warned its brethren throughout the state against “Clearing House Certificates,"’ advising them that the same, to use the language of the res o’ution adopted, “is a fraud and a trap to swindle tiie unsusjiecting people.” It is welt and worthy of hearty approv¬ al, that men watch to avoid the breakers and sand-bars that beset every bark launched ui>ou the business sea; but for men, or newspapers, or organizations to bo eternally cryingdanger! danger!! where none exists is a very small calling, and generally meets a reward commensurate with it# rtw n insignificant proportions. If our alliance bretheren only kuew it, the best informed in their order have long ago caught onto the demagogic scheme of a few of the would be leaders, and have liecome thoroughly disgusted «ith the effort to keep up agitation upon frivolous subjects under the pretext of guarding doesn’t tbe general stand interest. between Everybody that the plowhaudles is not a thief nor a trickster, and the effort to make that impression upon the honest and intelligent yeomanry will prove a dismal failure. GONE CRAZY. There seems to be lmt little doubt that .Senator Stewart, the leader of the anli re|ieal wing of i he Fnited States Senate, has gone from a mononietulist to a mo nomain.ie. While delivering an address last week, upon the occasion of celebrating the oue huudredth anniversary of the laying of the corner stone of the Capitol, President Ci.livid .ami made this remark: “If the representatives who here assemble to make laws for their fellow-countrymen forget the duty of broad and disinterested patriotism and legislate in prejudice and passion, or in behalf of sectional or selfish interests, the time when the cornerstone of thecapitol was luid and the circum¬ stances surrounding it will not be worthy of commemorating.” Senator Stewart construed this, and perhaps properly so, as having reference to the present conduct of the Senate in handling the Vouchees ini! for the repeal of the Sherman law, and takes it us a great indignity inflicted upon that usual¬ ly business-like body. He conceives that Mr. Ci.kvelami is wielding too great an influence over the affairs of the nation, and has introduced into the Senate tile following resolution; “Resolved, That the independence of the coordinate depart¬ ments of the government, the legislative, Hie ,'Xreutivc, and the judicial, must be miiiutaiiied, but that the uwj of th« power mid iufluenceof one dejiartaieut to con trol the action of another is in violation of the constitution and destructive to the republican form of government."’ In addressing the Senate upon the res¬ olution Mr. Stewart made a very bitter attack upon the President, imputing to him general ignorance, and maintaining that his lack of collegiate education un¬ fitted him for the responsible position which ln> was holding. Mr. Stewart held that the position of clerk, lawyer, sheriff, mayor and governor did not fit a man for the responsible duties of presid¬ ing over the deslinies of this country, but that it required the study of nature upon the farm or in some college to ac¬ quaint one with “the laws of money and ul nature.” He said; “Rut unfortunate¬ ly, our President was denied both a col¬ legiate education and that greater and better education, communion with the great producing classes of the country, communion with the pioneers of the west, communion with those who are the bone and sinew oi the country.” The most charitable construction that the Times cun put upon the conduct of Senator Stewart is that the gentleman is treading in the footsteps of the late Senator Jones, of Florida: one of the naturally brightest men that ever sat with our national lawmakers, lmt who now occupies an Illinois lunatic asylum. We regret to see such useful men go that way. !► • — 7 HE CHEROKEE STRIP. Perhaps no scene more exciting has ever occurred iu this country than that which attended the opening of the Chero¬ kee Strip to settlement by white Jiome seekers on Saturday, the 10th inst. Several weeks previously the President had issued his jiioi'lumation fixing the date, and stilting that all prospective settlers would be required to present themselves on the line of the territory, and register before being allowed the privilege of entering to secure a home. From the issuing of the proclamation would be settlers began to flock to the borders, and on Friday night before the land was to be thrown open on Saturday the crowd encamped upon its borders was estimated all the way from 100,000 to 150,000 people, all iu a fever of excite¬ ment. Some were equipped with teams loadedjw'ith ready framed houses and fur¬ niture, while ot here had prepared them¬ selves with the fleetest horses obtainable’ with the determination of leading in the race into the territory. The signal for the rush was the firing of a cannon, at noon on Saturday. At the report of the gun the race began, in which there was no respect shown lo age or sex. Iu the crowd was a large num, her of woman who were run over and knocked down the same as the men, and many actually had their clothes torn from their persons in the struggle. Not a few had tlie life crushed out of them, and wtlre left lying w here they fell while the mass surged on to victory or defeat, There was not room for all to secure a home, and in some cases those who first settled themselves were shot down by those coming later, who quietly took possession of the location. To add to the excitement of the oeea sion Are broke out in the prairie grass, and was driven over the plains b.v such a furious wind that the “boomers” found , ,.. , . . .. . , «.v lor sa ety, leaving their loaded teams to the destruction of the flames; and the charred remainsofhun.au bodies. scattered here and there, tell of the ex tremity of suffering that overtook many a luckless homeseeker. Not only was there not room in the small territory for the great host that sou B^ t l )0,ne * there, but its attractions "ere uot sufficient to bind m.iny of those "d'o were considered fortunate in infr a ^ttlement; so the anxiety and haste to gvt back into tIie “ whit ® »»**»’** country” is scarce exceeded by the rush upon the Cherokee Strip. A dispatch sent to the Associated Press from Guth rie, Oklahoma, last Tuesday, just ten days after the Strip was opened to settle tnent, states that more than half of tho 200,000 people who had entered “the land of promise” had already come out of it. Not a few people praetie the plan of shaping their own opinions so us to fit exactly crosswise of those with whom they associate. Having no influence to assist any measure on, they endeavor to make themselves the more conspicuous by hold Ing baek all they can. Their chief pleas ure is found in grumbling because others agree. They urehappy just in proportion as they can annoy some one else, and would die of ennui if it wasn't lor the cir¬ culation which friction keeps up iu them, At this time the blood is spinning through their veins and their hair is standing on end because tlie reco*?mzeci leaders in n»j>eai- both tlie old parties have agreed upon ing the Sherman act. FLORIDA VERSUS FLORIDA. The unseemly contest I etweea '^toF la tobacco grower* and .Florida cigar mail uffieturers is calcidated to impress with the rarity of patriotism, and the idea that a national lroveriunen t, which endeavors to foster private indue tries will always have its iiunbs fall. The situation is this: The McKinley duty on Havana, wrapper leaf is $2 pound for unstjunined, and 92.75 for stqinmed leaf. This has had the result 'of encouraging fraud upon the port of manufacturers, who have used Florida grown tobacco and palmed it. off for IIii vana. The scheme appears to have |floven partially successful; but the! inanulacturers have made the discovery; that, “while they can fool some of people all the time and all of the some of the time, they cannot fool all the people all the time,” and the bottom is about to drop out of the Florida-gro.vn Havaini-eigar-tobaeco fraud, ami they; have concluded to ask that the Florida; tobacco industry lie permitted to stand upon its own merits. To that end a del¬ egation went up from Florida to Wash¬ ington a few days ago in the interest of the limnufaeturers of that state, to ask the Ways and Means CoinmiHiv to re¬ store the old rate of duty on imported tobacco. lint, like almost everybody else, the Florida tobacco growers want every cent that can be taxed out of their neighbor*, and in - 'st that, “if the liinnufai-t urers"' demand is acceded to this industry will be destroyed;” so, last Monday Mr. F. 1!. Moodie, 1’resident of 1 he Florida Tobacco Growers’ Association, passed through Savannah in route to Washington tti put in his plea in opposition to that of the cigar niamifacturers. lt is, therefore, Florida vs. Florida on the tariff issue. <- to Tue authorities of Savannah seem to have gone to the extremes in the quar¬ antine business, and even residents of the city arc occasionally put to much uiiiiec esHnry trouble. A few days ago a man antl his wife came out and spent the du.v ut Guyton, and upon attempting to re turn that afternoon they wore put off the train at Meldriin bv the inspectors which came aboard there. No testimony that they could adduce would sulfice to prss them back home. A certificate was the required evidence, and nothing less would do. The certificate of the ordinary of the county will do, and in response to the suggestion that a .countryman might have to go twenty miles to reach tire or¬ dinary, Dr. Rrunner replied; “Let him go the twenty miles then.” In some instances the certificates cost , and the issuing of them is serving to loosen up the financial pressure in such cases. IVe note that an exchange estimates the damage to the cotton crops front the big gale at not exceeding 5 per cent, and says that this was inflicted chiefly upon the open boll. As a fact the loss sustain-; edby the cotton planters is much heavier than the above allowance, and jvas very ignali in regard to the open cQttou. Tfie chief damage was to the growing stall-, which was so whipped"about and lirftised as to destroy most of thelatecropsinthis section, so far as the Times’ information and observation extends. In some in¬ stances the stalks are dying, while in others a new growth is starting out from tlie body of the plant, in either case there will be no top crop, and the bolls non matured will be about all the grow As will gather this season. ALL OVER GEORGIA. Tlie F. C. A P. railroad takes charge of the South Round next Monday on a nine¬ ty-nine y.-ars" lease. A. II.
