Bullock’s daughter was married in Atlanta, on last Wednes day evening, to Mr. L. T. Kendall of Atlanta. From the face of the returns at At lanta, there will be one Republican Senator, and one negro member of the House of Representatives. Mayor W»witt was nominated for re-election to the Mayoralty of New York on the Oth. He was chosen by acclamation. Gov. Hill has gone to Indiana to stump the State for Cleveland and Thurman. That looks like the Gov ernor was satisfied that New York State was all, right. We are Indebted to Mr. ,T. F. Har bour for (tie Tjade Issue of the Rome Tribune. Rome, with eight railroads and three rivers, lias come to the front, ns one of the most progressive cities in the South. The low price of cotton, only 81 cents for the best is due to this '‘Trust” concern. The Republican party brought the millionaires to the front. And, if it had four more yenrs of power it would buy Washington City, and no Democrat could hold of fice there without its consent. The Hon. Levi P.

The man who can win honors raising calves ought not to waste liits time in poli tics —Macon Telgraph. Official Announcement. Ga. Statk AoricultukalSocikty,) Secretary's Office, > Macon, Ga., October (l, 1888. ) The Georgia State Agricultural So ciety through its Fair Committee, have fixed the dates for holding the Annual State Fair on November 5th to November 10th., 1888, at Central City Park, Macon, Ga. Ail fear of yellow fever having subsided, and tlie country having recovered from the effects of the recent floods, all obsta cles to suocess have been removed. Our premium l|pt is full and com plete embracing everything in farm, garden and orchard products, homo industry, needle-work, fine arts, rub chinery, live stock, poultry, doge, bees, etc. Our grounds are the boot in the south, and unsurpassed in America. Oar race track has no su perior anywhere. Oar stalls for stock are uew throughout and on the most Improved plan. Iu fact we have ample aooommodation for all comers in every department. The books are now open, and wo respect fully urge that entiles be forwarded to the Secretary at once to Avoid rush and confusion. For premium list and full information address the Sec’ty, W. J. Northkn, Rout. A. Nisbkt, President. Secretary. The South Carolina Republicans asked Governor Richardson to allow them a commissioner of elections. He replied that their request could not be complied with, giving as a reason that there are no men honest enough iu the South Carolina Republican ranks to manage an election. This was pretty heavy on the applicants and the more so because of its truth. “Robert Anderson, aged 18 years,” reads a dispatch from Pottsville, Pa., “is lying at the point of death at his father’s house, as the result of a heart trouble produced by cigarette smok ing.” Deaths caused by cigarette smoking are quite common, but tlie manufacture of cigarettes is not oft the decrease. Of course the manufactur ers will make them as long us the de mand continues. A collision on the Lehigh Valley Railroad occurred on the 10th, in which sixty-three persons were killed. Severe and certain punishment for j accidents would lessen the number to a wonderful extent. They are us ually the result of carelessness, and carelessness that endangers human life is a crime that should be punished. Excursion trains seem to be peculiar- • ly subject to, accident, owing proba bly to the la^t that the railroad em ployees partake of the so-called ‘good cheer’ of these demoralizating occa sions. As will be seen from the above the State fair is “on” again in all its glory. We are assured by Secretary Nisbet that the prospect is unusually bright. The postponement has gained a special advantage in the matter of live stock and the races. The entries iu both these depart ments will be much larger than they would have been in Ootober. The dates as they now stand form a good racing circuit, with Macon in the lead followed by Columbus and Augusta in order named. Tills as sures tlie best races seen in Georgia for many years, which alone will be wortli a trip to Macon. MclntcBh, Talbot and Hancock Counties are in the race for the ♦1,000 premium, with a very strong probability that Houston will follow suit: thus you see there will be no lack of interest, information and amusement for all. The Sate Fair belongs to the people of Georgia, and the people of Georgia should see to it that there are full exhibits and big crowds. Isolations Sure Preventive of Yellow Pever. Decatur, Ala, Oct, 8.—Dr. Jerome Cochran, state health officer, reports ns follows: “There have been two now cases, both colored reported to-day. Dr Williams and Lizzie Jackson are dy lug. “Allow uie to say a few words for the future now while they will be read and remembered. All cases come from j exposure in the infected district or | to tlie sick. No exposure, no yellow I fever. If you keep away from the fire 1 you won’t get burned. Absolute | isolation is absolute safety. There is no need of stampedes, no need of panics. Instead of running away let every man isolate himself and family in his house and out off all inter course with tlie world outside and lie will remain safe in theinidst of an epi demic.” Tlie most pitiful scenes are daily oc curring at Jacksonville. Here is just one selected out of dozens even more heart-rending: J. L. Rlliott, husband of Mrs. El liott, who died yesterday in Spring- field of yellow fever, is sick, and is at tlie Sand Hills, and knows nothing of his wife’s death.. He saw his wife alive on Sunday, just before he was taken out to the hospital. The shock resulting from her husband’s sickness caused Mrs. Elliott’s sudden death. She was very weak and was just get ting over a severe attack of tlie fe ver.” It Won’t Bakk bread.—In other words Hood's Sarsaparilla will not do impossibiltes. Its proprietors tejl plainly what it has done, submit proofs from sources of unquestioned reliability, and ask you frankly if you are suffering from any disease or af fection caused or promoted by impure blood or low state of the system, to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla, The exper ience of others is sufficient assurance that you will not be disappointed in the result. Major W. L. Glessner and the Geor gia exhibit car arrived in Macon Wed nesday night from an extended tour to the county and state fairs of the West. He went on to Americas. Tlie car will be exhibited at the State fair. Judge Thurman’s formal letter of acceptance was received yesterday; it is a brief^but strong document. We will publish it in our next issue. The Fever. Saturday's record showed the small est number of new cases since the fever started at Jacksonville. There were 31 uew cases and 3 deaths. On Sunday, at Jacksonville, there were only 18 new cases and two deaths from the fever Total cases up to yesterday, 3,544. Total deaths 813, about an average of one death to every 11 cases. At Decatur, Ala., there were on the 14th, two new cases, and one death. There was a frost there on that day. Hta. X. T. Calvin. Mr. Oalvin, of Riohtnond, will be th* only member In the next Georgia Houee of Repreaentativeswho has been in tho Legislature continuously since 1883. Mis election for a fourth term is a just recognition of faithful acid able servloe to his constituents and the stati. Mr. Calvin baa distinguished himself in every LegMIature of which be has been a member. We learn that he will bo a candidate for speaker pro- tom, of tlie House. No better selec tion could be made. He lias often pre sided over tlie deliberations of the House, and always in a most accept able manner HOW TO OVERCOME THE DAN OERS OF EXPOSURE. Erancis O’Reilly, tlie well-known liveryman of No. 18 Prince street, New York, says of Allcock’s Porous Plasters: “For the Inst forty-two years I have been engaged in the livery and hacking business. I am greatly aided by my four boys. We are much ex posed to the weather, and we have found Allcock’s Plastkhs of very great service. We use them as chest protectors, placing one on the chest and one on tlie pit of the stomach. They not only ward off the cold, but act as a tonic. We are frequently affected with rheumatism, kinks in tlie back, and pains in tlie side; but one or two of Allcock's Plastkhs quickly cure us. My wife and daughter have been using Allcock’s Plasters for weak back and think the world of them. I have now been using them for twen ty years, and always have a box in the house." From the Capital. We get the following from the Con stitution of last Saturday : Hon. A. 8. Clay, of Cobb, Hon. Fleming G. duBignon, of Chatham, and Dr. Tbeopliilus O. Powell, the principal physician of the. lunatic asy luin at Milledgeyille, called oh Gov- ernorlGordon yesterday afternoon. Heriutor Alfred H. Colquitt got back from Washington, yesterday. He dined with Governor Gordon at tile mansion, yesterday afternoon. At the comptroller-general’s offiee yesterday $28,000 in taxes were record ed from the Central ruilroad and $420 in taxes from the Rome and Decutur railroad. Lectured Crawford, tlie negro who was defeated for the legislaturein Mc Intosh county by H011. C. M. Tisop, filed yesterday a notice of oontest in tlie executive department. He claims that T.ison was elected by. illegal votes; • ; .. Tlie negro Crawford was a member of the last legislature and his speeftii oh the disabled soldier bill is well rpmembered. Among other tilings lie said: “The United States government has pensioned her soldiers, both white and black, who fought for lier in the war. I do not see why Georgia should not pension her wounded veterans, although I am well aware that my race will not get a dollar of pension money. How to Gain Flesh and Strength.
