GWINNETT HERALD. T. M PEEPLES, EDITOR EDITORIAL BREVITIES Small pox still rag js in C anada Forty five deaths were reported in Montreal last Friday, and 84 new cases reported. The fight in the Georgia Legis lature. between the Railroads au l the three Czars of Georgia, con linues with unabated fury. The liquor dealers throughout the State, are contributicg funds to buy voters in the prohibition election in Fulton county, J. J. Patterson, who tried to cut his wife's throat in Banks county, and jumped his l>ond. has been ar rested in Atlanta. The United States District court met yesterday Judge McKay, presiding. It is stated that there are over three hundred cases agaist illicit distillers for trial. A beardless boy robbed a Texw as stage coach recently, in which there were six passengers. He quietly demanded the mail sacks, and they weie turned over to him. Dr, Armstrong, the Episcopal minister, of Atlanta, who was cburged with improper conduct m Cincinnati, nas demanded a trial, and the Bishop has ordered a heat ing according to the rules of the church. Gen, Toombs is getting w eaker every day. //is physician is con stantly with him, and lie may die at any moment. His vigorous constitution is completely broken down, and it is only a question of endurance, before the end conies. The bill pending in the legisla ture, to abolish public executions, should be passed. These occasions where great crowds gather to gratify a morbid curiosity, and liss ten to a man whose hands arc reek ing with his brother’s blood, tell how he expects to step from the gibbet into Heaven, do immense harm. The Mugwumps of A'ew York, who fell into the democratic line t and helped to elect Cleveland, have returned to their first love and ate now as blantant radicals as ever. In an old book, not much r ead in Republican households, something is said about the sow returning to her wallowing in the mud. Tee indications are tnat the Mahone crowd will be badly beat- e n at the coming election. As soon as the rotten coalition that exists in that State is defeated, ii will fall to pieces of its own weight. Mahone can then devote his time to taking care of hit bad boy, who seems determined lo achieve a national reputation for pure cussedness. H. N. Smith, of New York, has failed for about a million and a lalf. He has pulled down with lim a number of mercantile and tock brokerage concerns. Among hem Wm.

Round trip tickets to the New Orleans exposition and return can be purchased in Atlanta after the 15th of November for v ls good for twenty days. The senate b»s passed the ,bill to change the Constitutioe and fix the salaries of the members of the Legislature at 5250.00 per term- Now let the House do likewise and the people will rise up and say Amen. The Atlanta soap factory has played out. That city cau main tain at big salaries a base ball club but when it comes to provide for cleanlioess, which is said to be n-xl to Godliness, soap is not needed, sand and water will do. Bartow County -eerns hsrd to satisfy. About two years ago the County established a County Court. A judge and solicitor were j appointed but they do not appear to have given satisfaction. At this session the county court was abolished in order to got rid of their officers and a city court css tablished with jurisdiction over the county. A mere change of name but legislating out of office the incumbents, It is now sougbt to take the appointing power out of the hand t of the Governor and let the peole select their own of ficers. Delegates from that coun ty are daily in Atlanta tomanipu • late the wires. The present House of Represent atives has more blatent demas gogues than any Legislature that nas assembled since Bullock's day. While there nro a great many good men there, who are willing to vote and work ior the best iuferest of the State, there has unfortunately crepi into the body a gang of flera agogues who have obstructed busi ness by their ’ireless gab, and who on every measure have sought to patder to the passions and prej inlices of the ignorant. Such men should be market! and allowed to slide down to their proper level. And if we look back to tho ante cedents of these men, in nearly every instance they have either betrayed their people in the hour of trial or have been mixed up with Republicanism. I'hej do not represent the Democracy or the intelligence and worth of the Sta;e. And the only surprise is that they should have any Influ ence in shying the li delation of that body A lew such men can do immense harm. Iliey ar a communist at heart and are never happier than when clogging the wheels of progress are attempting to stir up strife among the peple. THE MACON TELEGRAPH. As the negro said of .Lie ruuis that had suddenly dumped him in the road, we always did “spise,” a long name for a man or a news paper. The Telegraph & Messea gen came out on the first instant with an entire ne»v dress an< looks as neat and handsome as a “sweet girl graduate.” Among other improvements it drops the Messenger part of its title and is now the “Daily Telegraph.” Under the business manage" men of Mr. Z/ausou and the able editoral work of Col. Lamar and his associates the Telegraph is noi only prospering financially but is a political powei in the State. THE NEGROES OF VIRGINIA The most sensible thing we have seen from the colored people since ehe war, comes from a negro convention in Lynchour/; Va, These people under tuehalluciua* tion that it was to their interest to side with the Republicans in all political contests and to vote against tile peop/e upon whom they depend fsr employment, edu cation and protection, For twon~ ty y mrs they have been the blind tools in the hands of aspiring pol iticians, who kicked them off like a scuvy dog as soon as they Could no longer be made useful. Jn the address of this conven tion among another other sensible things, they say “Boleiviug that the time has come for us to call a halt on tne unquestioning support we have given the Republican parly, do here in convention as sembled, solemnly declare our selves politically independent in all matters which pertain to us as citizens.” * * * “We therefore appeal to the colored people of our native state to look well tot.be tiltered condi tion of affairs, and in the future to make such political alliancies as will most advance our interest educationally, financially and po litically- We feel snre there is a general disposition on the pari of the white people to accord us all our rightsbefore the law and to meet us heartily on every advance we make foa upholding our peo ple- When the coiored people of the South understand and act on tLis : principle, tj/en and not till then, will they occupy that positi u which their numbers give them power to attain in the affairs of j the country. HARRISON OF QUITMAN. One of tlie best members of the present Legislature is the Hon. W. 11. //arrison, of Quitman. Ho is a well poised man, of good judgement. .‘>n experienced legisla tor and a bold, clear headed thith er. Asa debator he is empass ioned and emphatic, stucking sledge hammer blows. If he has anyth ng to say, he sa>s it amt Lheu takes his seat. There is no demagogue about him. He studies a question care fully and arrives at an honest con elusion, and does not hesitate to strike square from ihe shoulder sot the riaht, whether he is on the popular or unpopular side. Hs is not o.e c f these time sorvi-*g political non-entities, who first count noses and 'hen blusters around a« though he was a real leader. In discussing the Rail lined Commission bill last week, 1 >i. Felton made one of his character istic speeches, The constitution gives the following report, of Har rison’s reply: Mr. Harrison, of Quit.mni , we t for the doctor after this fashion ; “I have never 'intoned before, ant I never expect to age in, listen to anything that compares in its Satanic results if 1 understand them to what wo have listened to for the last hour! Never U-t re have I listened to tiny mail in tnis state, who, as far as I was able to judge, had but a single purpose, and that to array the capitol and the labor of Georgia agaibst each other." The house fairly shook with ap plause, and die evcitement was in tense. A hundred men were on their feet and five hundred yelled, shouted and stamped the lloor and pounded the desks. It. was some time before order ooufii be re stored, and when the uproar had bten somewhat quelled Mr. Har rison proceeded: “Shades of Dennis Kearny *n the sand lots of San Francisco, paiet into insignificance before what we have heard this afternoon Here, again, the applause was stupendous, and it was sometime before order could be restored. The applause shook the building. ANOTHER UOTSIIOT. “The result can only embitter feelings and engender strife, and bis conduct is violative of the spirit of the Master he serves- How comes it, oh, shade ot the loly Nazarine, that oue of His avowed followers sould give utter arce to no sentiment save that which in its legitimate results cau bring only bitterness and strife between men ? He took no step to still the troubled waters, he brought no oil to pacify the an gry passions of men. but here he soaks to create a divison that the commune of France is not at all incomparable to. More than fifty years ago tue state of Georgia wrestled with the subject of traus porution. At the home of the gentleman from Bartow mink skius were legal tender, and in the county of Quitman the gopher was the staple commodity, . The city in which we stand was a howling wilderness that had scarcely been Visited by man, What has wrought this change? The rail roads have done it. They have driven out the old methods of transportation and given us a quicker and a cheaper system. They do the work cheaper thau the old system, and cheaper than anybody else can or will do it, and yet the gentleman is not satisfied. Nothing can satisfy him on this subject, and he comes in reeking with bitterness, and presents, as the basis of his harangue, the pe tition of sixty three citizens ask ing you to keep this railroad com mission in power that they, the beneficiaries of the railroad, that they 1)ID NOT BUILD, may be protected under this usurp atiou of authority. (Applause.) They fail to listen to the c.om plaintsjof 4,3000 shareholders when tiiey tell us they are on the verge of bankruptcy,” Mr. Harrison leferred to the fact that Georgia had failed to make a success of running her own road and had then capped fiie climax by putting ail the other roads in the hands of ibree men to run—and two out of three don’t know the value of a cross tie. Ho spoke at some length on the necessity for a cl ange in the law and said the matter ought to be decided justly and wi'hout preju dice. KNOCKED OFF A TRAIN. Intelligence of a serious acci dent to Mr. P- C. Langston, of Gainesvill, at Akton Jnnct’on,Ala. night before last, was received in Atlanta yesterday.
