All . the , ducalion , .. that , . ' may be heaped upon him would leave him a negro sfill in the eyes Of e .t those ...i who | know ,,, him bggk Congreiemdn Livingston ha« recove:ed sufficiently to give out a very interesting inter¬ view relative to the possible future complexion of southern politics. Flo thinks the bank¬ ers, manufacturer 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 wa« bound and gagged and then the two highwaymen proceeded to take what they could find. Two hundred dollars was secured by the robbers ?nd they left the ti’iiiti near Gordou. The mes¬ senger was still bound securely when found by oue of the crew. Now the cheei ful tidings come to us from Porto Rica that un¬ der nncle Sam’s regime the na tave girls of the Island are be lug sold by tbeir fathers to prevent their starva¬ tion. Nothing is said of the boys of the island so we judge that they are not hungry else there is no market, for tnern. Uncle Sam should look after Its adopted daughters. How long roust le sout lern people submit to slanderous m suits such as Dr. Parkin, rs. of the Ogden party, is uov\ r iui ing at us? Phis constant, evetiast* ing 'dogging’ at the aeuthein white people, and fondling the negro, by those who have more money than brain, is becoming tiresome, to say the least."
