ed, and now it appears that the vitals
have been touched. •
Be this as it may, the republicans of
New York are now as much divided by
this Conkling struggle as "the democrats
of, the same state evfi# vfere by : lhe boss-
ism that Kelly attempted to practice.
K.eby proved the rock on which the
democratic party of New 'York founder
ed in. the last campaign, aud.it no^
seems: that Conkling bill prove the ruin
of the republicans in the next.
As obnoxious as Cqnkling has become
to us by |his unscrupulous warfare
against democracy and Honest govern
ment, we fail to see that any advantage
will accrue, or any better things' result,
by the election of tho.man who repre
sents-tlie other wing of the republican
party in opposition to his re-election to
the United States senate.
Should Depew be elected to succeed
Conkling, the only, change will be that
an unscrupulous partisan boss of biie
wiug of the republican party gwill be
superceded by an unscrupulous boss
of another wing of the Republican par
ty, Depew has been attempting to buy
liis election, and when an office is
bought.it is not likely that the position
will be used for the public good, but
rather fdr the personal aggrandisement
and pecuniary benefit of the incum
bent.
Considered from the present outlook,
the republican party, in New. York.is"
split into two factions that, can never
be united.. Being thus, the democrats
will prove themselves imbeciles un
worthy of success should they fail to
manage their campaigns so as to secure
the next state government, legislature
and electoral vote of New York.
Verily, we believe New York will oc
cupy her proper place, in the ilemocart-
ic rapks when she votes again, .and the
35, or more,-votes she will give tie
democratic candidate for president
should be enough to make up a majori
ty of the electoral votes and place him
in the white house.
Since our last issue there has been
no practical change in the condition of af-
rairs at Albany, and it now seems quite
improbable that tLe present legislature
will elect U. S. Senators io succeed
Conkling and Platt, Should this be
come a fa'ct, it is . thought the.next leg
islature will bp-able toblect two demo
cratic Senators.
Thp vote for Conkling and Platt has
diminished somewhat, while Depew
and Wheeler have gained a few votes.
The democrats regard the situation
with much complacency, aneferote sol
idly for- their candidates,^ Kernan and
Jacobs.
The investigation of the bribery
cases continues, after .,a fashion, but
nothing more is disclosed' than ibat the
aterage republican politician considers
it a legitimate business to buy and sell
votes, even when the votes in question
are those of legislators. -

Three vacancies yet remain unfilled,
one cansed by the death of the Hon.
Fernando Wood, of New York, and two
owing to the resignations of Hon. Levi
P. Morton,, of New York, and. Wiliiam

Assuming -that the Democrats will
elect a successor to Morton, that will
reduce the regular Republican vote to
146, which they hope to increase to 151
by- tbe votes of the four republican
Greenbackers and the Independent,the
Rev. J. Hyatt Smith. But while it is
possible that these Greenback and-In-
deDendent members may vote with the
Republicans, it is also highly probable
that Judge Kelley, of.this, city, Jorgen
sen and Dezendorf, ef Virginia, will not
vote for the candidate of the Republi
can caucus. Under any circumstances
it is not believed by those who have
canvassed .this matter that the candi
date .of’’the caucus, even if acceptable
to the administration and anti-adminis
tration Republicans, can obtain more
than 149" votes, or two more than nec
essary to elect; while, upon ttie other
hand, if the fight between Blaine and
Conkling continues, the chances are
tliat-Hr. Randall may be pretty nearly
the unanimous choice of the House.

Tlie Atlanta, Cotton Exposition.
There is now no doubt entertained’
concerning the success of the interna
tional Cotton exposition to be held in
Atlanta, commencing on the 5th of
October next and continueing three
months.
The Exposition, while primarily for
the illustration, of the cultivation and
manufacture of cotton, in alt its prases,
and the exhibition of all implements
and machinery used in connection"
therewith, will practically be a World’s
Fair on an extensive scale. Visitors
and exhibitors from all quarters of the
world will he present, and the manu
facturers oi Georgia will be enabled to
compare their manufactures, machin
ery aud mode of operation with the
manufactures of New Fngland, and of
every other country where’the’Maple is
manufactured.
Besides this, the agricultural inter
ests of Georgia, as well as every o'ther
industry of our State, will have space
provided for exhibition. In fact it is :
intended that the' vast and inexhausiA
ble resources of wealth "in our State
shall be placed ,bsiore the . eyes of the
countless visitors from other countries
who will attend the Exposition.
It is personally to the . interest.of
every citizen in Georgia, if possible, to
contribute something to the .exhibits of
the Exhibition. No admissiph'fee will
be charged on agricultural displays.
Commissioner Henderson has j issued an

Afteb all it appears that the revision
committee of the New Testament in
substituting “love” foT “chtfrity” " have
only returned to an Old renderidg. In
the edition printed by Robert Barker,
of London, in 1610 “love” appears
throughout the thirteenth chapter of
.First Corinthians, thus: “Though I
speak with the tongue3 of men and an
gels and have uot love. I am as sound
ing brass or a tinkling cymbal,”
Aguin m the fourth "verse, “Love suf-
fereth long,” etc., and in the thirteenth,
‘‘And now abideth faith,' hope and love;
even these three; but the chiefest of
these is,love.”—.
