Congressman Livingston for t " e Senate would lend anew iuteiist. t ,J (1 corgi a politics next year.

There is no 1 doubt of the fact that these Island? are a considerable elephant <m that Un-j cle Sam’s hands and it seems thcre is no immediate prospect of his being able to tuiii it looso. Wallace Putnam Heed, in Hie Bun¬ ny South, writes nil interesting arti¬ cle on Congressman Livingston. Ho gives a brief hiktory of liis carter and proclaims him one of the leading and most useful men in the country, lie couples his mime with the Fed¬ eral Semite and predicts that lii.s peo¬ ple will call him to this high office. He thinks him the, most itdluenlil member of Congress rrom the south and says many very complimentary things of him. The Fort Gains Sentinel says:— “Cotton mills should hum in every Southern town and city. Tlie field is vast; it cannot he overrun. community should have a metory some kind, and altogether tho South would be able to make all it us< s as well ns all it cuts at homo, besides successfully competing with North on and foreign made goods in every market.” Tlie Sentinel is very correct in its utterances above and we hope it may lire to see the South prospering along the line of its suggestion. Fanners arc always being urged io “live nt home;” to make all they need on their farms and become pros porous. “Sauce for the geeso should bo sauce for the gamier” mid those who thus advise the farmer .should be able to apply tlie hint in the fol¬ lowing item from the Macon Even¬ ing' News:—“A representative of a Northern house sold a car load of leather in Macon the other day, and at the same time bought a car load of hides. The freight on the leather coining anti the hides going amoun¬ ted to over a hundred dollars ami tlie leather and the profit might have been made in Mr,eon.” Not a day passes lint that , tho news is flashed over the wires from some section of the south to the daily pa pors, that some black brute lias raged a white lady. Frx*m one to five occurrences of this kind is the daily average in the south, and not one-halt of tlie assail ants are sum warily dealt with. In any commu¬ nity in this country lyncli-law will prevail under such circumstances. The situation is becoming more and more alarming and the white men of the country are determined to make quick and terrible punishment for every fiend in human form that outrages humanity by such loul crime. - 1 ---- ^ tine of the most important features of the fair will he military day. A committee ot three, consisting of Colonel V G llyrd, soring adjutant general of tl ;e state, as chairman. Captain Jogeph Van Holt Nash and Dr. George Brown will have com. pletc charge of the full arrangements for this day and are expected to dt cide upon a date shortly. As soon as the date has been fixed the otuer arrangements will be made, Invi tations will be sent out all over the State to the various military organi¬ sations requesting their utt ndance on military day, and it is coiifident ' crack ij extwct( expei (l f ] mt a milliner of companies will respond. It is not improbable that a s’nnm battle will be one oft lie interesting features of this day, and prize drills may l>e par ticipntcd in hya number of compn „j r , g tJiat will attend, The commit t(3J4 aliead.v commenced its work, aml will doubtless report progress , ilne t „ tlm ,_K*.

The State lax rate estimated on the return of $154,000,000 of tax able property has been assessed by Governor Candler at $5.80 on $1, 000,000. with tho rate at $6,21 ) RS < year it is seen that the chief executive has ordered a decrease of almost $1 outlie $1,000, and thus lightens the burden of taxation in accordance with his utterances previous to his elect ion.
