Carter Tat© May be Opposed.
A Lawrence ville special to the
Atlanta Constitution under date
of March 5. declares that Judge
Russell, who is now holding court
at that place, was asked about his
rumored candidacy for congress
against Hon. Carter Tate. The
judge .said his name in this con
nection had been mentioned quite j
frequently of 1 ate, but that he had
no thought of running; that he
was in no sense a candidate and
did not expect to be.
He left the impression, however,
that if sufficient pressure was
brought to bear that would guar
antee his election j he would enter
the race. He has two more years
to serve as judge of the circuit,
and intimated that he would
rather succeed Carter Tate in con
gress than succeed himself as judge
of the western circuit.

In some of the thieves’ schools in In

gone through In the art of “pouching,”
or concealing articles of value in the
-throat. The Englishman, a newspaper
published in Calcutta, thus describes
the process:
“At first a small piece of lead, -at
tached to a 'thread, is swallowed and
guided by the action of the tongue to
the orifice of the sac in the throat. As
soon as tbi3 has been thoroughly learn
ed the lead is coated with lime. This
eats into the sac and enlarges it. The;
j size of the article to be pouched is
gradually increased . until ft is said
that many of the- Indian thieves can
