It will be seen by a circular published else
where that the railroad commission has ext down
passenger rates very much. On all the largest
roads In the state tbe rate per mile will be limit-
to three ceau. This will apply to all the roads
leading to Atlanta, and will be one of the most
Important changes the commission has. yet at
tempted. When the rate was reduced to four
cents a mile there was a great stir among iail-
roads. and opposition to the proposed reduction,
ty be Imagined that this new cut will cause
dissatisfaction among the llnee affected. The
people generally will rejoice orer the reduction,
and there Is bound to be a large increase in local
travel. This will compensate the railroads to a
great degree for the loss the reduction will cause.
! new rate Is not applicable to all the rail
reads in the state. There are several roads placed
class B, on which four cents may be charged.
On other nnaller roads whose receipts are not very
large fire cents a mile may be charged. The new
rates will go into effect on the 1st of February. It
may be expected that between now sad then the
railroad xieu will be very active in their efforts to
effect more liberal provisions from the commis
sion, but it is • well known that the commission
has been slow to issue circulars and very careful
about making amendments to them.
The following Is tbt division of the roads as
made by the commission: For clan A 3 cents a
mile will be charged; for clan B, 4 cents; for
clsss C, 5 cents.
Passenger class A includes the following:

night. As yet no clue has been fonnd to
the perpetrators of the offense The
weather has been quite cold for tbe last few
days, but the fair weather has had a favora
ble influence upon everything. The damp
warm weather of the two or three weeks
previous, conduced greatly to sickness.
Jascfr, December a—While several raft
hands were waiting for the train at Sterling,
No 1 M &B railroad, they, after becoming
thoroughly intoxicated, commenced quar
reling,*and two -young stout men com

There is probably no subject in the whole rang
of American politics about-which so much Intt*-
est is felt as the position that Senator Mah^ne.
Of Virginia, will take in respect to the two great
parties Upon his alignment depends tbe balance
of power In the next senate.
We are enabled to throw some light on this
subject through the following extracts from a
private letter written by General Mabone to his
old and valued friend, Msjor Campbell Wallace.
In giving ns the letter Major Wallace said:
“You may depend upon it that Mahone will
do right He is one of the ablest men in this
country, and is as true a man as ever drew the
breath of life. I’ve known him, and have seen
him in all sorts of places. In my judgment, he
will stand in the next senate precisely on the
platform occupied by 8enator Joseph E. Brown,
of Georgia. Now you wait and see if I am not
right"
Below we print the letter:
“I have never had a higher ambition to dis
charge the duties of any trust to the satisfaction
of those who conferred it 1 am not indifferent to
public approval, but I have never had any lean,
when pursuing the conviction of duty and the

Special dispatch to The Constitution.
Washington, December 9.—The discussion aa
to whether or not Georgia has grown more pros
perous or poorer within the past tan years, isex-
citlDg considerable attention here.
Mr Stephens, I understand, still maintains that
he waa right In saying that the state had grown
poorer—but now says that he will enlarge the
scope of argument and show that the whole
country, as well as Georgia, has grown poorer.
I am unable to aay anything defiulto about the
country, but I am certain that whatever the otter
states have done, Georgia has grown richer within
the par tetf years. Since the publication of Tux
Constitution's answer to Mr. Stephens, prool
of the correctness of Its position and-of the re
markable progress made by the state, come te
me from every quarter and by almost every mail.
I will quote only one that has come to me to
day. Hon. N. J. Hammond, or the fifth district,
“Hr. Stephens is dearly wrong, by the facts, ii
not by the figures. I«sm so certain of this, and
felt that it was of so much importance that his
statements should be corrected, that I had deter
mined to review them mjaelf, until I saw your
article, which rovers the ground:
“Have you given much thought to the matter?*'
VI h«d hardly gone lum an investigation of the
figures and indeed it seems hardly
dothgL The real facts in the case, as every ob
servant Georgian sees them in his dally business,
would carry conviction of the prosperity of tte
state, not only without figures, but even In spite
of the figures.
“Take just one case that I remember. In my
last campaign I slept in a farm
house in Milton oounty. The next
morning from my bed I heard ten steam whistles
blowing. They belonged to ten steam mills
gins or presses, all being at work. Not one of
these was there ten yean ago. Now, Milton is
not an exceptional county. It is off the railroad,
and it has not been expected that It would Im
prove rapidly. And yet the fact is as I tell you

market, and at once over 3,000 of them were | pairn, that there was improvement in every coun*
ty, over what I saw two years before that. The
farms were better cultivated, the bouses were im-
tcady and higher but later a firm tone waa de-
eioped. Although fluctuations were moderate
luring the day, the undercurrent of the market
«hows strength and the stability of price* seems
» have inspired a general better feeling all over
•he country. At the close the nearer muc ths had
fully regained the lasses occasioned bv the de
cline yesterday, but the more distant months,
while closing .higher, were barely able to recover
losses. The great firmness of the market in the
face of such heavy receipts as have been reported
days past is a matter of conslderab .e en
couragement to the bull element, though much
higher prices are hardly to be expected at present*
and tbe late unsettled state of tho market has In
spired a want of confidence on the part of specu
lators. The spot market has shown very little
change to-day. At the close cnton was dull;
middling ll^c. Net receipti to-day 41.993 bales;
exports 22.400 bales; stock 921.579 bales.

At the opening of our market this morning the
feeling brightened up considerably, and tbe pros
pects for better prices for the day strengthened
the receipt of the first New York telegram,
rfariy in the day the marke began.to advance
under the influence of a lot* demand, aud tho
range of prices conlinneu up to the close. Tho
advance, however, seems to havo been confined
chiefly to the better grades of ootton, for no quo
table change hss taken place in tho market for
lower grades, and the demand for that dw of
cotton is very limited. At tbe exchange bust-
in the future delivery market has been very
brisk all day, and transactions have baen unu
sually large. Our receipts to-day amount to 1,339
bales, ol which 127 bales were received from wag
ons. At the close ootton was quotable at the fol

genuine opossum. She then informed her
husband, Mr. Noire, of tbe fact, and thither

soon rested upon the object of bis search.
There was the opossum true to life,

time was necessary to convert his opossum-
nbin into opossum pork, and in due time

BarnesvtPe Gazette.
Last Monday Mr. W. P. Bussey, tbe best
sheriff that Pike county has ever had,
arrested Mr. Bill Raiden, and lodged him
in the guard-boose in Barnesville. The
arrest was made near Mr. W. R. Murphey's
tnilL He was in the house of Miss Ander
son, and when Mr. Bussey saw him through
the key bole, and knocked for admission,
the door was locked and admission wss
refused. Mr. Raiden, armed with a shot
gun, told Mr. Bussey if be attempted to ar
rest him that he would shoot him. Raiden
with a shot-gun, and one, two or more
women in the room armed with the shovel
and tongs, placed our sheriff in rather an
,t is factory condition. But what should
.— what is right. This is
merely aa effort to make mote just and
uniform the railroad passenger rates. You see
they have been for a loug time selling thousand
mile tickets at <30, and even as low as $25. This
terns the man ol money aa advantage over the
poor man which is not just U they “*—* *“

carry any other at the came rate. Frequently
ttiey give excursion rates as ow as one ceut a mile
ana sell them tickets so thst tney get
less than three cents a mile Add to this tne re
duction on through rates, and you will find that
the average p^sseuger tariff* do not go as high as
three cents a mile. We believe in making more
uniform this busineas. I calculated that in one
a quarter of a million dollars waa carried
of Atlanta by excursions because of
great rash of people to eu-

at once. Seeing a dab axe at band, Mr.
Burney gathered it and with one stroke
drove tbe door wide open, and
he confronted the man for whom he had a

yielding of tbe door, forpot his gun and
began to seek a hiding place, at the same
time pleading for mercy and begging to allow

him in the guard-house. The arrest
was made under a warrant taken out by
Mr. A. 8. Clark, charging Raiden with steal

Oglethorpe Echo.
There has been a good deal of excitement
in our commubity for the last two or three
weeks on account of mad dogs. About a
month ago a strange dog passed through
Mr. W. F. Moore's farm, attacked his dogs,
bit one of them and came, near biting an
old darkey. In a few days afterwards one
of Mr. Moore’s dogs began to show syrup
toms of hydrophobia and bit several
other dogs on tne place. They tried tc
kill it, bat failed to do it, and the dog es
caped. When next heard of he had gone
by Mr. W. W. Brooks’s and from there over
into Clarke and Oconee counties and bad
bitten over a dozen does. He was next seen
at Veal's gin. at Big Shoals. Here he was
killed by Mr Lewis Veal and a negro named
Steve Barnett. Fortunately no person was
bitten, but no one knows where the thing
will stop, as tbe dogs that have been bitten
are likely to have hydropbebia at anyoime.
and it behooves everybody to be on their
guard.
