Why You Feel Bo weak and exhausted is because yout blood Is Impure. As well expect the sanitary condition of a city to be per. feet with defiled water and defective Sewerage, as to expect such a cornpli. eated piece of mechanism as the human frame to be in good order with impure blood circulating even to its minutest Veins. Do you know that every drop Os your two or three gallons of blood passes through the heart tad lungs in about two and a half minutes; and that, on its way, it Snakes bone and muscle, brain and nerve, and all the other so.ids and fluids of the body? The blood ia th* great nourisher, or, as the Bible terms it, “The Life of the Body.” Is it any wonder, then, that if the b.ood be not pure and perfect in its consti tuents, you suffer so many indescribable symptoms ? Ayer’s Sarsaparilla stands "head and •boulders’’ above every other Alter ative and Blood Medicine. As proof, read these reliable testimonies; G. G. Brock, of Lowell, Mass., says; For the . past 25 years I have sold Ayers sarsaparilla. In my opinion, the best remedial agencies for the cure of all the diseases arising from impuri ties of the blood are contained in thia tnedicine.” Eugene I. Hill, M. D., 381 Sixth Ave., New York, says; “As a blood-purifier •nd general buiider-up of the system, I have never found anything to equal Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, ft gives perfect satisfaction.” Ayer's Sarsaparilla proves equally efficacious in all forms of Scrofula, Boils, Carbuncles, Eczema, Humors, Lumbago, Catarrh, &c.; and is, there fore, the very best Spring and Family Medicine In use. “It beats all,” gays Mr. Cutler, •f Cutler Brothers & Co., Boston, “ how Ayer’s Sarsaparilla floes sell.” Prepared by Dr. J.

Governor Gordon Speaks to a Large Assembly. HE ANSWERS CHARGES AGAINST HIM Gbvernor Gordon, who has just returned from Ohio, was asked what ho thought would be the result of the next Tuesday’s election in that state. Ho replied: “It is impossiblo to predict. Both parties are working and both confident of success. Ohio, as you know, on a strict party vote is re publican ; but I know of many republicans who are weary of the foolish and damaging sec tional hatred which Governor Foraker and the republican party are seeking to keep alive and say they will not vote for the republican candidates.” “How were you received and treated at the points where you spoke?” “By the democrats, with the greatest consid eration and cor iality, and with respectful at tention and courtesy by the great body of re publicans; but the denunciations and slanders by Governor Foraker and a portion of the re publican press were more violent ami gross than they were fifteen years ago. I announced in my telegram (which was published before I left home) accepting the invitation to go to Ohio, that I should not discuss state issues or candidates. To this determination-1 strictly adhered. I did not mention Governor Foraker’s name in any speech; nor did I refer to him except to say in my speeches that if he would come to Georgia 1 would neither malign him while here, iior before he came, nor after lie left. I extended the same invitation to any other citizen of Ohio, whether republican or democrat, to dis cuss any public questions before our people. I assured them that our democratic press and people would treat them with the courtesy duo by the citizens of our state to those of every other state in this union.” “Did yon criticize Governor Foraker’s ad ministration ?” “No, I did not refer to a single state issue. I went there solely to speak in the interest of peace and unity. I endeavored to convince the people of Ohio, and did convince, I think, many of those who heard me, that this excuse less abuse of southern people would yet prove damaging to their own material interests as well as to the country. I do not care one cent for the good opinion of Governor Foraker, or of those who, like him, are too narrow-lninded to understand how our people can bo true to their own self respect and also true to the union and the flag, and to every legitimate re sult of the war; but I do care a great deal about the effect of their teachings on the future of the republic.” “Do those people really believe that we are disloyal to the union and that wo oppress the negro?” “Some of them who hear nothing and see nothing except from such men as Governor Foraker, and such papers as the Commercial- Gazette, do believe it. But Governor Foraker knows that he misrepresents us, but it is his only chance for re-election. They do not pre tend to answer the arguments of the stubborn facts presented by me in the vast accumulation of property by the blacks, the increase of col ored school children from little over 6,(XX) un der radical rule to over 122,000 under our dem ocratic rule, and the largo number of colored military companies in Georgia, as compared with Ohio; or the rapid increase of colored population in Georgia. To all facts Governor Foraker’s only reply is slander of myself as a kuklux and a sense less tirade about the the greeting of Mr. Davis by the old soldiers in Macon. “Why, sir! the proof, (and it is proofs posi tive) of their purpose to mis represent and to falsify every word and act is found in the disgusting falsehood, sent out from Cleveland in reference to General Morgan and myself. The marvel is that they would belie the facts of a scene which occurred in the presence of five thousand witnesses. It was simply this: General Morgan, a brave and able federal soldier of Ohio, had paid me a compliment far beyond my deserts and con cluded with the declaration ‘that if a foreign war should occur he and I would march to gether under the same flag against tlie com mon foe.’ As he stood near me I arose and gave him my hand. When the whole audience wildly cheered, and again and again cheered. This is the whole of it. Now, the radical sheet at Cleveland saw that this public pledge by myself to General Morgan Os the federal army was a crushing rebuke to tlie falsehoods which filled its columns, and it de termined to counteract the effect, and resorted to barefaced falsehood to accomplish it. So that paper contained the next morning the dis gusting stuff which has been telegraphed over the country.” General Morgan was interviewed by an En quirer correspondent at his home in Mt. Ver non, Ohio. “What kind of a meeting did'Gordon have in Cleveland?” he was asked. “It was the most glorious indoor meeting I ever saw. Gordon magnetized his vast audi ence, and they were wild with enthusiasm. After he had finished speaking he had a grand ovation, and was kept shaking hands until midnight.’’ “They say he kissed you squarely on the mouth.” After a hearty laugh the general said: “That story is too silly even for fools to believe. When I alluded to the gray and the blue being united under the starry banner of the union, and the certainty that if war camo the men of the south and north would march shoulder to shoulder against a common enemy, there was great cheering, and jamid the cheers Gordon advanced and grasped mo cordially by the hand and the cheering was renewed in tenfold force, and that is all there was of it. Governor Gordon is not only one of the most eloquent, but one of the most dignified men in our coun try-” General Gordon at Columbus. Columbus, 0., October 31.—General John B. Gordon, of Georgia, addressed a political meeting at the city hall tonight. A parade of local clubs preceded the meeting, and it was about!) o’clock before they reached the hall and the speaking began. There were over 3,000 persons present and more than that many who could not gain admission. The speaker began by referring to a telegram which he sent before coming in answer to the communication of tlie committee inviting him to the state, and said he was not here for the purpose of discuss ing either of tlie gentlemen who are candidates before the people, and that he expected to re turn south without doing so. fie assured them that should either candidate come to Georgia, they would be met with open arms as well as any other distinguished democrat or republican, lie emphasized the point, saying that sooner barriers between the two states were broken down, the sooner the citizens of this and that state become acquainted with the views of each other the better it would bo for all. The speaker apparently felt called upon to defend himself against criticisms of the press since his arrival in the state, and proceeded to d > so, explaining that his life is an open book, no page of which he was afraid to have thoroughly inspected. In April, 1805, he had gathered around him the remnants of the right of Leo’s army at Appomattox, before tlie smoko of tho battle had cleared away, and told his comrades that the war was over; that the union was res tored and tho president sutained. With tiie parole of that great captain, Grant, in his pocket, he went home to keep tho peace and obey the laws, and be had done so. The speaker said many republicans had been misled to believe that the colored people of the south were being trampled under foot, but the evidence which he had produced ought to be satisfactory and would be, except to that class who would willingly ride into office on tho sea of the block men’s blood. Tlie speaker* entered further into dltai! to answer the accusations of newspapers that he had been connected with the kuklux, saying he Wished to prove himself clear, for if the chief should be shown to bo innocent, tiie probabilities in tho minds of all would be that tlie smaller members were not guilty, cither. In this conne' tion ho explained the report of the investigating committee of congress, before which lie tesUlied when tho congressional committee were inquiring into ths kuklux. Ho explained that he belonged to a private organ ization which was formed among the best citi zens for the protection of their homos and their families- This was for the • ■•■• fotang Lmheni MFXICAN MUSTANG LINIMENT, for Maw and Bllast.

Governor Gordon’s Address at Cleveland. Ci Kvm.Axn. <),, November I.—Governor J. B. Gordon, of Georgia, addressed a largo au dience at Musin hall tonight. At the end of liis speech he offered to answer any questions that might bo asked him. “What have you to say of General Jackson’s speech at Macon,’' inquired a man in the au dience. "Nothing," said Governor Gordon. “Do you consider it treasonable?” asked the m:>n. “I have nothing to say,” was the governor’s reply. General G. M. Morga* l , of Mount Vernon, introduced tlie governor. General Morgan closed his eulogy by referring to tho stars and stripes, an I.saying;'that it was tho only flag that could henceforth wave over tlie north and the south. Just then Governor Gordon walked rapidly to where General Morgan was standing and kissed him directly iu the mouth. "I have not come to Ohio to discuss a local issue,” said the governor, when he began h’s speech. "I am profoundly impressed with the conviction that the sooner tlie barriers that di vide Ohio and Georgia are broken down the better it will bo for your interests and for mine. I shall not detain you by any defense of myself, nor shall I attempt to reply to un warranted, ungracious and ungentlemanly attacks upon my character. At Appomattox on tho night of the 9th of April, when tlie air was still murky with the smoko of war, before we had been paroled, I sat on my horse, and gathering around mo tho remnants of my shattered army, I began to preach the reunion of my country. i defy any man to put a linger upon ono word which * has escaped my lips since that time inconsistent witli that declaration. God knows we have suffered enough by tlie war. We do not want any more of it, but I have sometimes thought that I would be willing to see one more war, that we might march under the st ars and stripes, slioul der to shoulder against the common foe. If I could call tiie lightning down tonight, I would blast forever this horrible feeling of sectional hate.” Governor Gordon then read an extract from a republican paper, saying that his hands were red witli the blood of innocent negroes. He then walked to the edge of the platform and asked reporters of republican papers if they saw any blood on his hands. He paid a high tribute to the faithfulness of the blacks in tho south, saying that they had remained behind during the rebellion and had protected tho wives and daughters of their masters. A greater part of the speech was devoted to answering attacks made upon him by the “Leader.” The governor will remain here until tomor row night, when ho will leave for Georgia. TOM WOOEFOEK. Taken from Fulton County Jail and Carried to Macon. Tom Woolfolk, the Bibb county citizen who is charged with murdering his entire family nine miles from Macon, a few months ago, is now safely confined in the Macon jail, Early yesterday morning Nat Birdsong, tho Bibb county jailer, reached Atlanta. In his pocket he carried on order to Sheriff Thomas for Woolfolk, and beside him walked Mr. Thomas Dame, a trusted friend. There is no more cautious or careful officer in tho state than Jailer Birdsong, and realizing that his mission was one which needed no advertising, ho declined to parade it. Going quietly to tho sheriff’s office he surrendered his order for Woolfolk, and then as quietly passed the time until noon, when he went to the jail and asked for his prisoner. Jailer Poole was there on duty, and after piloting Mr. Birdsong through the jail, pointing with pride to everything, ne approached Woolfolk’s cell. The prisoner was swinging in his hammock, when Jailer Poole remarked: “Here, Tom, an old friend wants to see you.” a “Who is it?” asked the prisoner, rolling out. “Mr. Birdsong, the Macon jailer.” “Oli, yes,” said Woolfolk, showing his teeth through the bars. “Well, Tom, he’s come to take you to Ma con,” said Jailer Poole. “Yes, that’s what I want,” said Mr. Bird song “And I’m ready to go,” said tlie prisoner, gathering his effects together. In a minute or two the prisoner walked out of the cell. As he stepped into the hallway, Mr. Birdsong exhibited a pair of bright sinn ing handcuffs, remarked pleasantly: ~ “Here, Tom, I guess we’d better try these on.” Waelfolk looked at the chained bracelets a second, and dropping his bnndlo, extended both hands, saying: “Just as you please. I ain’t going to try to leave you, but I’ll wear ’em if you want me to do so.” There was a click, click, and then Wool folk’s two hands were securely bound within a few incites of each other. He looked down at tho chains and then looked up at tho two officers before him as tliongh expecting to hear something. Neither spoke and as they turned to start towards the door tlie prisoner re marked. “Well; well; well.” In the office Mr. Birdsong was met by Mr. Dame. The prisoner knew the gentleman and shaking him by tlie hand passed a remark or two. Drawing his watch from his pocket, Mr. Birdsong observed that he had more than an hour to spare and was wondering how to pass the time when the prisoner said: "I’d like a good beefsteak." “Well,'you shall have one, Tom,” remarked Jailer Birdsong, whose kind heart is known every where. Turning the prisoner around so that he stood behind him, Mr. Birdsong tied a light rope to his arms, and then, witli his friend Mr. Dame started for tiie depot. Woolfolk appeared to enjoy the walk, but when he reached tlie wait ing room in tlie depot sat down out of breatii. Mr. Birdsong then left tho prisoner in charge of Mr. Dame, and going to Durand’s ordered a steak. Woolfolk’s presence in tlie waiting room soon became known, and a large crowd collected. The prisoner returned the gaze of those about him without flinching, and when his meal nirivcd ate it witli a relish. When questioned, ho answered in monosyllables or not at all, and at no time appeared ill at ease. As the Central train backed into the depot the two officers led the prisoner out and put him in the smoking car. A Constitution reporter, who was present, approached tlie prisoner, re marking : "Well, Tom, how do you feel?” “All right I believe,” he answered without changing expression. "Going to Macon?” “Guessso; but I haven’t seen any ticket yet.” “Well,you’ll get your trial soon, wont you?” “Don’t know what I’ll got.” "How do you feel anyhow, Tom?” "All right, I guess.” “Fatter than when you went to jail, ain’t you?” "Am I?” “You look so.” “Well, then, yon ought to know.” Woolfolk was evidently not inclined to talk, and tinning to Mr. Birdsong tlie reporter said: “When will he get his trial?” "X cannot say. The grand jury meets Mon day ami I guess he will then be indicted. His trial won’t bo delayed long.” “Do you apprehend any trouble in getting him in jail in Macon?” "None at all,” answered tho jailer, smiling. "Our people down there are willing for the law to take, its course and will not interfere. If he is guilty he will bo found guilty, and if ho ain’t ho will bo cleared. Bibo county people want justice, and justice only, and they know tho courts will give that only.” Tlie train left at lialf past two, carrying tho t .vo officers ami tiie prisoner away. Thousands of people have found in Hood's Sarsaparilla a positive cure for rheumatism.

BRILLIANT SRSECHES AND MUSIC It was, perhaps, tho largest meeting ever hold in Atlanta. The crowd was variously estimated to con tain from seven to ten thousand people. A largo number of ladies were present, and they evinced as much earnestness as tiro men. Tho warehouse was brilliantly lighted and comfort ably warmed. Everybody, whether prohibi tionist or anti-prohibitionist, enjoyed the moot ing, and was entertained and instructed. No body who was there will ever forget the meet ing. Judge Hillyer asked all in tho audience who had white handkerchiefs to display them, and for a few moments tho fluttering of white handkerchiefs created almost a cyclone. Ho then introduced, as tho first speaker, Senator A. H. Colquitt. As Senator Colquitt came to the front lie was greeted with the Chautauqua salute in Atlanta’s regal style. -Vdvancing to tho front and looking tho au dience square in the face, Senator Colquitt said: "Fellow Citizens: Tlie grand and solemn opening of these services, the song and supplication, tho praise and prayer, is a fitting introduction to the subject to be discussed, the salvation of society and of home —a cause that calls down on it tho blessings of God. [Ap plause.] “Did you ever hear of a liquor dealers’con vention, or ot a meeting of liquor dealers, open their services with prayer, and havo a precen tor rise and raise the grand old song, “Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow?” (Cries of no! no!] A voice in tho crowd shouted: “You never will!” [Laughter.] “What sort of a prayer would a liquor dealer offer? It would bo something like this: “Oh, Lord God Almighty, who rules the appetites and controls tho passions of men. Oh, Lord, give these boys of our land; oh Lord, give these husbands of our land ; oh Lord, give those fathers of our land; oh Lord, give them an unquenchable thirst for liquor that I may supply their needs.” [Laughter and applause.]. “Can such a prayer be made in this city of the redeemed? “If there are any doubtful ones present hero tonight, who thinks prohibition is wrong, ore ho retires to rest tonight let him faee his God on this mattor.l como to speak to you as a citi zen of Georgia, as a patriot, and I trust as a Christian conscious of his responsibility to God. I havo never heard of a man going out from Atlanta that did not sound her praise. Her citizens love it and magnify it. “I am not an indifferent reader of history, and tho declaration I am about to make is not an idle one. It is my solemn conviction that there has not been a place on the civilized earth since tlie Redeemer walked into Jerusa lem where the people are more moral, religious or true to convictions of right than in tlie city of Atlanta. [Applause.] You remember that in the campaign of 1885 it was predicted that if prohibition prevailed tho houses would lie empty, the owls and bats fly ing out of the windows and men and women walking about the streets moping and dejected because of a mistaken vote. “Tho liquor influence has been exerted over tho press aud tlie politicians and office seekers, aiid silenced the preachers in many places. “It has taken by the throat all tho cities. At lanta is tlie only exception. [Applause.] When it came to Atlanta it struck a Gibraltar. “Atlanta stands the chief and most brilliant star in tlie Christian reformation and tho puri fication of society. What do you propose doing? [Voices —keep her there.] "You are right,my friend. I have endeavor ed to analyze tlie opposition to prohibition. There is but one solution, and that rests in the seiishness of human nature. If I am ca pable of hating any man, it is tho mean, sel fish man who says, ‘I will takecaro of myself, you take care of yourself.’] “See the conceited self-important man, in double-breasted cloth coat, who meets you with a supercilious patronizing air—he’s a gentle man, he is—ami tells you he will not follow after short-haired women and Sunday school teachers. He’s a man, he is. Talk to him of ruined Jhearthstoiies and debauched young men and he will tell you that it is none of his business. “God save Atlanta from such selfish men as these. [Applause.] “Give me a man that feels for tho woes, tho sorrows and griefs of his fellow man. [Ap plause.] Give me a man whose grasp of tho hand conveys tho warmth of his soul to yours, as ho says ‘God speed you my brother.’ [Applause.] Don’t give me a man whose shrivelled soul erics: ‘I will take care of my family; you take care of your own.’ [Ap plausg.J "Another objection is urged, and that is pro hibition does not prohibit. You have heard that before. I’ll make this proposition: Poor as I am, I am willing to stake all but my wife and children on tho proposition. If you find a saloon keeper that favors prohibition I’ll give up tlie cause. If prohibition did not prohibit, wouldn’t there be found at least ono liquor seller who favored prohibition? They sell liquor to make money. "If they sold more under prohibition wouldn’t they favor it? “Georgia is the empire state of the south. What a mockery is the title if she has to lay her sceptre at tlie feet of the liquor dealer and say, ‘Wc are powerless.’ You know it, every man, prohibition or anti, knows that prohibition docs prohibit. If boys draw inferences they are likely to Como to the conclusion that tho groat vices arc violations of the law, such as burglary, arson, larceny, etc., an<f should be suppressed. But when the most accursed vice of the age is as sailed you must bo careful to say nothing against it. “Nover since tho government has been es tablished was there such a largo gathering of humanity assembled than in Atlanta during your exposition, and as few drunken men seen. [Applause.] I have been in smaller assemblies when there were ten times as many drunken men. [Applause.] “I arn not familiar with all tho arguments used in this campaign. While wo were en camped in tho woods near Chancellorsvillo and were uncertain as to the position of the enemy ‘wc shelled tho woods.’ “That is what I am doing tonight. [Ap plause.] But there is a financial objection, is there not, Judge Hillyer?” Judge Hillyer—They havo given that up. The finance is all right. Resuming Senator Colquitt said : "But if there were I would not discuss them before a Christian audience. If 1 were a missionary to the Sioux, the Kickapoosor other tribes, 1 might consider and discuss it before them, but 1 will not put you on the plane of the savage. "A man is prohibited from building a wood en structure in the firo limits. Ho may claim the inalienable right to build a wooden house, but will be told that ho has no right to erect a building that will endanger tho property of others. Bar tholdi, in endeavoring to get a proper repre sentation of liberty, took, as a model, a woman. There she stands, intended to catch tho spirit of divinity, tho ethereal firo of heaven, a torch in her hand, while her lambient grateful eyes lookup to tho stars as if they wore to be lit above the corruption of earth. But how would you represent the liquor dealers’ idea of liberty? “Knock off tho statue and substitute In place of the woman a red-eyed, bloated face, slobbering, staggering drunkard. Criticisms have been made upon the women engaged in the prohibition cause, that they are overstep ping the Ixiunds of delicacy. Whatever men may think, there is chivalry, courage and love enough left to move the men to protect their wives and children. Even if the women did not move the children would.” Mr. Grandlsoii's Eloquent Effort. As soon as the applause had subsided Judge Hillyer said: “We havo something good in store for you. Wo aro about to hear from a speaker who lias won fame In North Carolina —Mr. C. N.

[Wild cheering.) 1 cannot hope to deal in statistics as the gentle men who proceeded me have done; nor can I hope to rival their fervid eloquence and sub lime rhetoric.

[Loud cheering.] When I look upon this sea of faces, upon tho noble men and pure vir tuous women, I realize that it is no mean cause which has brought you together. [Prolonged applause.] I am opposed to the rum traffic because it is a crime. I am opposed to the anti-prohibitionists because they propose to bring back a curse, and because they, to carry their ends, appeal to the prejudices and passions of my people. [Vociferous applause.] Whenever there is to bo an election the liquor men come together and say we can get all the negiocs. They be lieve that because tho negroes havo always been oppressed and deprived of the rights of civilization and educa tion they can put dirt in their mouthsand then swear its sugar. [Laughter and cheers.] They don’t expect to buy tho white man. The negro is on trial in this country. Nover did the negro know such an uplifting as when he stood up by tho white man and put down this rum traffic. Tho negro, by standing by God and his native land, won* for himself a naino and fame. Tho question is what are you going to do with the negro? You will find him everywhere. Kight up hero among tlie white people. This country has settled his rights and citizenship. It remains for him to demonstrate to the world that ho is capable of properly using his rights. Everywhere I’ve been they have said, how stands tlie negro on prohibition?

His honor makes the following point: After the presidential election of 1876, this com munity became tired of what was denominated as “boss rule. ’ It determined to put nn end to personal politics. 1 took nn nctive part in the movement, and was punished by a refusal on tho part of the democratic machine to r< nominate me for congress. Ido not know of the existence of any such ••boss rule’’in this city nt this time. If they exist it seems to me that the mayor in db e.harge of his appointing powers would have encountered them. They have not materialized nt the mayoi’s office, nod no demands have been made upon inc in their behalf. But I have encountered another ami new kind of boss who has given me a great deal of unsought ad vice and a large amount of unneees ary bull 1 >zm •. I refer Loth; newspaper boss. Sitting in his e lito rial sanctum like a brooding Buddha, he does not hesitate to claim omniscience an I t » end »\v him elf with omnipotence. The political boss was resj onsi ble only to ids party; the newspaper boss itm)s‘>on>i ble to liis own pocket. He is as he is despotic. He must be siippres i-d. otherwise par ties, upon the healthful exLtenco of which tree government depends, will be destroyed ami voiora will be compelled ’to choose between newspaper tickets insteal of 1 arty nominations. Republicans, who, m my own c ise, n fuse to indorse the democratic candi date, were prompt enough to seize the opportunity to foment discord in the ranks of their opponents by tiie open nomination of two democrats, thus making the humiliating confession that they have no men in their own party wh > have Hie courage and ability to effect reform, promote justice ami punish crime. The deduction from those facts is dear that tin; Nic >ll movement, in its inc-pilon, the newspaper advertising dodge, and in its conclusion tlie dis graceful stra’agem of tlie republican mana ices to demoralize the democratic party, in tlie hope that tho confusion thus produced will determine tiie presidential contest of JBS.S in favor of politicians who were driven from power in ’B-1 by the election of Grover Cleveland.
