The next congress will be the first one since the war without a negro member. The countiy is to be congratulated. TTie Georgia Weekly Preps Asseciation will hold its buri-. ness session at Athens thisyear. in July, and front there tlm members will go to Buffalo and take in the exposition. ThiU promises to be a most enj i) ihle i and profitahls outing for the craft, I All tbe money of all the He!. fo°I 8 in the world would not: make the negro different in his character or change his posi¬ tion politically or socially in the couth. All the 'dtidal inn that may be heaped upon him would leave him a negro still in the eyes of thope who know him best, Congre^eman Livingston ha« recoveied sufficiently to give out a very interesting inter¬ view relative to the possible future complexion of southern politics. He thinks the hank¬ ers, manufacture!s and capital ists will go to the republican ranks when the negro question is settled. The Congressman usually looks well ahead. The express car on a Central train was robbed near Macon last Thursday night about, 12 o'clock. The messenger was bound and gagged and then the two highwaymen proceeded lo take what they could find. Two hundred dollars was secured lay the robbers r?nd (hey left (lie train -near Gordou. The mes¬ senger was still bound securely when found by oue of the crew. Now the cheeiful tidings corns to us from Porto Rica that un¬ der nncle Sam’s regime the tm tave girls of the Island are hc ing sold hy I heir fathers to prevent their starva¬ tion Nothing is said of the . hoys of the island so we judge that they are not hungry or else there is no market, for tnern* Uncle Sam should look after his adopted daughters. How long must thh^sombern the Ogden party, is uow hui ling at us? This constant, evetlast ing ‘dogging’ at the sent hem white people, aud fondling the negro, by those who have more money than brain, is becoming tiresome, to say the least.' Dr. Park'.-.urst may be a phi la nth r > pist, but he need, eome tJ teach him discreetness and at the same time point out. to him that the south is not a cuss* pool ' of ignorance and poVeitv.
