Heavy snow storms have occurred at the
North and travel is greatly impeded.
Labor is organizing throughout the
United States. It is a National effort
for the Presidential race.
There have been disastrous storms
throughout England. Some ships
and smaller crafts have been washed
ashore and several lives were lost. .
The most glaring false economy
and want of appreciation of home in
terests that a good man can be guilty
of, is to refuse to take his county pa
per because he can get one from a
distance cheaper.
The Irwinton Southerner-Appeal,
one of the most carefully edited, liou-
est and prosperous weekly papers
on our exchange list thus compli
ments us: “The Milledgeville Record
er is the neatest sheet among all of
our exchanges. We say success to the
Recorder. Long may it live.”
Governor O'Neal in his message to
the Legislature, says that Alabama
devotes more than one-third of all the
revenues she receives into the State
Treasury to the public schools. That
is a good sign if there is money enough
left for all useful State purposes.
A Philadelphia dispatch of the 10th
says the National Grange Patrons of
Husbandry commenced their 20th an
nual session there on that day. The
meeting, it says, will be held secret
and continue about eight days. There
may be a good reason for secrecy but
that is a curious announcement.
On the Egyptian question Turkey
and Russia take sides with France.
It is not likely that the English gov
ernment will withdraw from Egypt at
the dictation of France, if Germany
and Austria remain silent. Italy’s
reply, the report says, is unfavorble
but in what w&y is not stated.
The Presbyterian synod, of Texas,
in its session at Galveston, declared
that Dr. Woodrow’s Evolution doc
trine was at variance with the ortho
dox doctrines of the church and adopt
ed the Georgia recommendation ofiis
dismissal from the professorship, held
at Columbia South Carolina. We
merely make this statement as a mat
ter of news in which many are inter
ested.
The Civil Service Commission an
nounces that examinations, under its
direction, will be held during the
month of December at one or more
points in Mississippi, Alabama, Flor
ida and • possibly other „ Southern
States. It ought to be dissolved and
let the officials be appointed as they
w r ere under all the administrations
dowm to the introduction of the pres
ent system, 'copied from the aristo
cratic plan of the English Govern
ment. It was established there for
the greater security and imposing ef
fect of royal and arbitrary power.
Democracy is quivering under its in
fluence. It will do more to defeat the
Democracy in 1888 than all things else
combined.
A Chicago dispatch says an after
noon paper publishes that “A boycott
has already been declared by the
General Executive Board of the
Knights of Labor.” Said Mr. Barry at
noon today: “It begins on Armour’s
meats and other products. How far
we shall extend it to the other pack
ers I cannot say yet.”
During the recent strike in Chicago,
a squad of infantry dispersed a crowd
of strikers and the employees went on
their way without further molesta
tion. We see in this the evil result
ing from the measures of the Knights
of Labor. The packers say their busi
ness is injured by the constant with
drawal of their hands and that they
are. compelled to employ. others and
they will exercise their right to em
ploy and discharge whom they please.
It has come to a pretty pass that bus
iness men are threatened with boy
cotting if they dare to discharge a
hand who will not work according to
contract and employ another who is
ready and willing to work. This is a
downright effort to hamper and con
trol a man’s business by unlawful
means and has led and will continue
to lead to bloodshed. The condition
of things is such in the matter refer
red to, that the boycotters could not
be controlled until Lieutenant Mc
Millan gave the order to load with
ball cartridges. Such was the state
of things that Gen. Fitzsimmons re
quested that a company of the First
Cavalry be sent to the yards. It was
thought they could render more
speedy and efficient service especially
in answering sudden alarms than the
infantry. This way of having to at
tend to ordinary business under the
protection of the military is disgrace
ful and unendurable.
Water Drinking.
The writer of the column in the
Atlanta Constitution headed “Con
stitutionals,” while discussing, recent
ly ,the habits of different sorts of peo
ple in the matter of drinking water,
says the following:
“Without exception, I think, it will
be found that those who drink little
or no writer are of slender girth and
somewhat cynical in their views—ver
itable pessimists indeed—or at least
inclined that way. The real fountain
of wit is not the flowing bowl, but the
water-pitcher, and it is a source of in
spiration that neither whitens the
hair, like champagne, nor does vio
lence to the understanding, like the
domestic wine that is for sale in At
lanta.
In my boyish days I was acquainted
with an old gentleman who boasted
that he had drank no water in forty
years. This gentleman was well
known in Georgia at one time, and is
probably remembered by many of the
old readers of the Constitution. I al
lude to the late S. N. Boughton, who
wa^ one of the proprietors of the Mil-
ledgeville Federal Union, at a time
when both the Union and the South
ern Recorder; edited by R. M. Orme,
were the leading papers in the State.
Mr. Boughton was a very pleasant
gentleman, but his whole appearance
showed that the anti-water theory is
opposed to nature. His health was
not good, and liis skin had the ap
pearance of parchment, so that he
formed a ghastly contrast to his jolly
co-partner, Mr Barnes—who, by the
way, was the father of Billy Barnes,
the versatile genius who used to make
Atlanta lively.”
Washington Letter.
From Our Regular Correspondent.
Some of the papers say the result of
the election is unfavorable to the free
traders. We think differently. Car
lisle's small vote was caused by*the be
lief of his friends that he would get his
usual majority. We have given Mr.
Morrison’s statement of the cause of
his defeat. It was not caused by his
views on the subject of a tariff. Frank
Hurd ran in a district that was noto
riously favorable to a high tariff. The
truth is the result was not indicative
of opposition to or friendliness for the
protective tariff. Distinctive charac-
acter, or intellectual vis was not dis
played on either side for or againgt
protection. The great object of the
Republicans was to overcome the ma
jority of the Democrats in congress.
They caught the friends of Carlisle
napping and Mr. Morrison has ex
plained the methods adopted to de
feat him. All that is said about Car
lisle, Morrison and Hurd to show anti
free trade sentiment, can be success
fully met by the result s in New Hamp
shire and Massachusetts. There was
no election of a Governor in the first
mentioned state, and the Democrats
gained a congressman. At the last
election before this the Republicans
elected their candidate for Governor
of Massachusetts by 22,000 majority;
at this election the Republican candi
date, Ames, beats Andrews, demo
crat, but a few votes over 9,000 and
the tariff was the leading question.—
This was a democratic gain of over
10,000 and that too ia one of the
strongest tariff states in the Union.
If the Carlisle, Morrison and Frank
Hurd cases showed some degree of
free trade depression, the New Hamp
shire and Massachusetts cases showed
tariff depression, but, in our opinion,
neither amounted to anything of the
kind as to general results.
The Constitution in Macon.
The Atlanta Constitution now ar
rives in Macon at 6:10 a. m., and the
numerous readers and admirers of
that excellent journal are delighted
to have the paper to read at break
fast.—Macon News.
The morning train of the Macon
and Augusta Railroad leaves Macon
at 10 minutes after 7 o’clock a. m., ex
actly one hour after the Constitution
gets there. Why can not our enter
prising Atlanta contemporary arrange
to have its paper sent to this place by
that train, so that we may get it here
in the morning, instead of at 4:29 p.
in., by the way of Camack, as is tne
case at present?

Editor Uniox-Recorder:
The question of vital interest now
to the Republican Senators is wheth
er the Nebraska legislature will re
turn Senator Van Wyck or some more
reliable brother. During the last ses
sion whenever “crazy horse,” Van
Wyck, as he was sometimes called,
arose to ask the consideration of a
resolution which was inimical to any
fat corporation, or went against any
old abuse, there was a good deal of
laughing and winking on the sofas in
the rear of the chamber.
Ip like manner Senator Riddleber-
ger always seemed to succeed in mak
ing himself ridiculous. When he in
sisted on a hearing in opposition to
executive sessions of the Senate, he
was invariably out of order; yet when
ever he made the same point or order
on another Senator, it so happened
that. the point which was good as
as against him was not good as
against others.
Now it appears that “the stone
which the builders rejected has be
come the head of the corner.” These
two Senators who were objects of!
ridicule and irritation to the Repub
lican brotherhood, hold the balance
of power between the two parties in
the Senate. They were never in har
mony with their party and could nev
er be relied upon when a vote was
called. So, as they are not Republi
cans in good and regular standing,
the Senate is not Republican, and
there is fun ahead. The Senate
stands thus; 37 Democrats, 37 Republi
cans and the Balance of Power party,
composed of Senators Van Wyck and
Riddleberger. It is quite certain these
gentlemen wall be very graciously
treated this winter by Republican
Senators, although the Philadelphia
Press said it might be better to have
the Senate Democratic than to have it
Republican by the aid of such men.
The suggestion that Mr. Carlisle is
disqualified for the Speakership in the
Fiftieth Congress because his oppo
nent will contest his election, is con
sidered practically absurd by such
able and experienced parliamentari
ans as, for instance, Congressman Wel-
born, of Texas. The further question
of the propriety of his appointing the
committee which is to consider his
own case is a reflection that every
member in Congress would feel like
resenting.
Without distinction of party the
Congressmen who have served with
Mr. Carlisle would be perfectly satis
fied to trust the whole matter to him,
assured that he would not raise a
hand to save himself from defeat, if
by so doing he woqld be taking an
unfair advantage of his opponent.
A finer tribute is seldom paid to a
man in public life than the recent ex
pression of interest in Mr. Carlisle’s
fortunes, by the best people of every
partisan faith. The example is all the
more significant from the fact that in
becoming the object of so much un
feigned regard, the Speaker has never
abated one iota of his loyalty to the
Democratic party.
The Police scandal has been the
talk of the town during the week. It
is alleged that the Chief of Police, in
his cabinet councils which he holds a^
nine o’clock every day, at his office,
instructed his Lieutenants to “spot”
Congressmen who w r ere inclined to
dark w r ays in order that they might
be able to influence these Congress
men to vote for large appropriations
for the Metropolitan Police force.
Lieutenant Arnold, who is charged
with having betrayed the secret, has
been summoned before a court mar
tial, and much interest is manifested
in the trial. It is the most important
agitation in the police affairs of the
District that has ever occurred since
the investigation made into the ini
quities of the detective corps three
years ago, and there is little doubt
that justice will ultimately be done,
no matter who is hurt.
Society gave a little flutter during
the week to prove that it is not life
less. A lunch party given by Mrs
Whitney in honor of Mrs. Cleveland,
was characterized by that elegance of
appointment which has marked all
the entertainments given at the hos
pitable home of the Secretary of the
Navy. There were nineteen young
ladies invited to meet the lady of the
White House. Autumn’s own flow
ers, Chrysanthemums, were used in
decorating the table, and the corsage
bouquets, which have been relegated
to lunch parties, were of violets and
were placed at every cover. The
White House is very quiet just now,
as the President refuses to see all
callers, and is absorbed in the prepa
ration of his message to Congress.
The Treasury Department has final
ly and officially declared that toma
toes are vegetables and not fruit, as
the importer claimed them to be. To
matoes, by either name would stew
as well but there is a question. of tar
iff involved. Hence the decision.
A Lynn clergyman relates that on one
occasion after marrying a couple an envel
ope was handed 1° him which he supposed
of course contained the marriage fee. On
opening it he found a slip of paper on
which was written: “We desire your
prayers.”

“I had a good opportunity to-night
to study Mr. Hayes. I can very well
understand how Gen. Hampton and
other leaders got near him during his
occupancy of the White House. Mr.
Hayes is easy of approach and a most
genial gentleman. He is very far
from bein* a weak man. His face
beams with benevolence. I declare,
every time I looked at him yesterday
and to-night, I could but regret that
a cloud ever gathered about his title
to the highest office within the gift of
the American - people. He is a forci
ble and graceful speaker, and, at
times, really eloquent. He would
grace any rostrum. His impromtu talk
to-night at the close of the Congress,
was warm hearted and free.
All the speakers agreed that the
press reports of the proceedings were
worthy of high praise. They were
complimentary to the Constitution's
reporter, (Mr. Henry Richardson,. I
believe) declaring that his reports, in
and fullness, had nowhere
accuracy _
been equalled in the Union.
