- r UNION-RECORDER. Miillkdgkvllk, Ga., Aug. 13, 1880. EDITORIAL GLIMPSES. Maooa people calculate to have the electric cars in operation by October. Inferior cropB this year are reported in every civilized country, the United States excepted. Mr. Dudley DuBose of Washington, Ga., and Mr. P. A. Stovall of the Atigusta Chronicle are writing a "Life of Gen. Robert Toombs." Kentucky had a State election on the 5th for State Treasurer. Sharp, democrat, and present treasurer is re elected by 85,000 inajbrity. Columbus is moving to build a rail road from that city to some point on the Georgia Midland K. K., a dis tance of 55 miles to connect with the line to Chattanooga, Tenn. Kilrain has been urreNtcd and will be carried to Mississippi to keep Sul livan company. It is to be hoped the mill through which Gov. Lowry will put them may grind bettor stuff out of them both. We note with pleasure a great im provement in the general and individ ual, so to speak, get up of our respect ad contemporary the Augusta Chroni cle. It is now abreast witli the best daily papers any where. Those “sports" who got up the Bullivan-Kilrain light, and those “genteel people" from New Orleans and other cities who patronised It, and bet on it, deserve to bo punished as severely as Sullivan and Kilrain may be. _ One of the bachelor editors of the Augusta Evening News had the high honor of announcing the marriage of a kindsman last week. So far so good. Where is Col. Moore? The last we heard of liiui he was pros pecting in Alabama probably with a view to going into theniining bus iness. Royalty lias no special exemption from the ills that human liesli is heir to. Colleen Victoria has been a great sufferer from rheumatism and sciati ca. Site is improving. The old lady would give some of the best jewels in her crown to lie as "aisy" ns Dennis’ wife from Tipperary. We highly approve of the proposi tion of Hon. W. J. Northeu and General Manager Belknap to send a commission composed of intelligent Georgia farmers out West to learn farmers’ ways there, and place before them the inducements Georgia holds out to inmigrants from that section. Mr. Northen, president of the State Agricultural Society, told the Au gusta Chronicle reporter lust week that one sixth of the entire cotton crop this year will be wrapped in cot ton bagging. And in* also added, no power on earth will ever induce the the farmer to go back to jute trust bagging. _____ "Primus the First” the great cotton first bale man, is not a married man. No wonder then he has time to go over his fields of cotton, pickingjiere and there to get the first open boll. "Primus, 1 say, come and hold this baby while I milk the cow,” rung into his ears day after day would knock that first bale out of his brains forever. John L. SulliVan, tfie Boston slug ger, whs arrested in New York on a, requisition from Gov. Lowry of Mississippi. Gov. Hill endorsed the requisition and the prize lighter was carried to Mississippi under arrest, and at Jackson tie was placed in jail. He will Vie tried for prize lighting in Purvis couuty, in which the recent Bullivan-Kilrain light took place. The Legislature, lip to the present time, has passed no measure of public importance. A number of bills of local character, which might just as well been settled by the counties con c j rned in a couuty court or board of c immissioners passed but the big bills are kept before the house that the young member may air his eloquence and some of these bills will die at last of too much talking—gasphyxed so to speak. The appointment of a negro clerk in the Atlanta Post Office by (fen. Lewis the new postmaster,; to be the associate of a young lady of the re gistry department, has produced a big sensation in Atlanta. The young lady, Miss Lyons, promptly resigned. The postmaster says he is only carry ing out the civil service rules. But he could have put his negro friend in some other place not so obnoxious to the lady clerks or to the public that has so much to do with the regis tered letter department. Any case of extreme Bowel Disor ders may be prevented by using La mar s Diarrhuja Mixture in time. Mr. And Mr*. Gladstone. “Do you see that young man." said an English statesman to a young lady who sat by his side at a dinner party in London many years ago. "Note him well and mark my words; If ids life is spared he will one day be prime minister." The young man referred to was William Ewart Gladstone, and the young lady to whom the remark was addressed was Miss Glynne. Lit tle did she think that the prediction would he fulfilled, or that she was destined to become the future Prime Minister's bride and to share his liou- ors with him for more than half a century. It was a very notable oc casion when fifty one yoarB ago she married young Mr. Gladstone, Cabi net officer. The moderate castle, In which Mr. Gladstone’s family resides, was built over a hundred years ago and was considerably added to from time to time so that it is a compara tively new seat. It has a splendid appearance with its stone battlements and walls well grown with ivy. Mr. Gladstone livoB a remarkably regular life. The family head lias long been an advocate of great care in the mastication of food, und, so long as forty years ago, laid down rules for chewing. He made a rule for his children that thirty-two bites should be given to each mouthful of meat and a little less number to bread, fish, etc. His favorite exorcise a walk iu the groundsand chopping trees. Ho dines at 8 p. m. convers ing freely while at dinner. He re tires at 10 o'clock. The London Echo, several years ago, gave an anecdote of Mr. Glad stone, which illustrates his thorough Englishjnature in putting his shoulder to the wheel to help a man get a heavy load of iron up a hill which without assistance ho could not ac complish. He wus Astonished to learn from a person present that it was Mr. Gladstone who aided him and was inue.ii mortified, stating that "I never Hir’d him nor nothing. 1 thought he was some farmer.’’ The carrier speak- to Mr. Gladstone after receiving tile aid said; “Now, old fellow, if thou’ll come up into tlie village, I’ll pay for a pint o’ the best for thee." ‘No thank you. You aro welcome to my assistance,” said Mr. Gladstone, and ho walked uway toward the cas tle smiling. Mrs. Gladstone was just like her husband being nlways ready to accommodate others even at great inconvenience to herself. One said to Mrs. Gladstone, "you have been able to do so much in ed ucational and philanthropic work be cause you are so exceptiouably happy, Mrs. Gladstone. Is not that the se cret of your energy and ambition?” "She looked at mo with a smile on her face and then simply said ‘I think so; happiness is a great inspirer and charmer, and I have never been otherwise in my relations in life. Her appearance indicates the en tire truth of this remark. She lias a noble brow, clear cut featuros, and a sweet expression about the mouth which soften the otherwise strong and severe intellectuality of the face There are several characteristics us ualtv marking great men in public life which are noticable in Mr. Glad stone. He is a groat reader ; lie bus a wonderful memory, which serves as a storehouse for the ideas lie absorbs from books; be has alwnys been an indefatigablu worker; he is a practi cal business man; he is methodical. He lias reduced the geting of max imum work out of a secretary to a science. The first essential of a pri vate secretary is to have plenty of pigeon holes, and Mr. Gladstone used to keep six nests of pigeon holes con stantly going. One for instance, was set apart for all letters relating to the church and to questions of preferment, four of tlie other nests were appro priated to special subjects, while the sixth was sot aside as a kind of gener al rubbish into which all miscellane ous letters were summarily consign ed. Mr. Gladstone took to tree chopping to relieve the strain of an active brain. He cannot stop thinking. While he can readily turn from one subject to another, ho finds it difficult to turn to no subject at all. Muscu lar action is the only thing that will relievo this strain, Bo the Premier is reduced to the inanimate axe to draw his natural activity from his brain. He is a good digester of food and a good sleeper. Miss Helen Gladstone, the young est daughter, is President of Newham college, Cambridge, and is a very cul tivated woman. One sou and one daughter are married and live near Hawarden castle. The son is the Vi car of Hawarden. Mr. Gladstone and his wife may be said to be a part of the Victorian age. They began their married life about there is no breaking down on the part of either. The Premier’s care will probably enable, him to reach an age like the Emperor William of Germany.

The ienate’e President Interviewed as to the Governorship. Atlanta, Aug. 10.[8peoial to Tele graph.]—The authoritative announce ment gave the press the other day that Hon. W. J. Northen, of Hancock, is a candidate for governor, to succeed Gordon, whose term expires a year und a half lienee, lias created no little political stir here, und for that mat the State Road. Mr. Berner is said to have made the most telling speech yet mnde in the House against “bet terments.” Tile question is still open. Nothing will be (lone till this vexed question is settled. We append the following of local interest to Baldwin. In the Senate; The cotored citizens of Baldwin county made a bid for the idle #8,000 formerly appropriated to the Atlanta Universiey by the state. A memorial signed by the trustees of the Eddy Higli School of Milledgeville aud other colored men was read iuthe Senate, praying that, said trustees be incorporated as u board of trustees for the African Industrial College of Georgia, and that the #8,000 indicated in Art. 8, Sec. 8, Pur. 1 of the consti tution, be appropriated to the board for the maintenance of the same. Aua. 8th. The Senate to-day did nothing of special importance, except to pass a bill appropriating #15,000 to build a dormitorv for the Academy for the Blind at Macon. The Governor approved to duy a bill to provide for a stock law in the 105th and 115th districts, Baldwin county. The House continued to discuss the ter, very little comment. Perhaps the reason for this, aside froi V the j lease of the Btate*Ro^L distance ahead of the campaign, is Auo Otli chiefly that it brought no news to j The Senate Committee reported adj the public. It lias been pretty well ; versely on the bill providing for the understood for some time that Mr, i °l e .°tion of the commissioners of ugri TEN THOUSAND PEOPLE Barn Postmaster Lewis and Col. A. E. Back In Xflgy. Atlanta seems to be wild with in dignation over the conductor Gener al J. It. Lewis the uew postmaster. Last night the indignation was brought to a culmination, and the result that the postmaster together witli Col. A. E. Buck were burned in effigy. , The scaffold was arranged in front of the Custom House about 8 o'clock, and in a short while the men, women and children in the streets formed a surging crowd of nearly ten thousand souls. The crowd clamored for the hang- lug aud soon the grotesque figures were dangling in the air; one being named Lewis aud the other Buck. Several negroes helped to swing them up. Then the torch was applied to them, and the doomed effigies were soon burning away. Just as the flames were raging at their fiercest, a band came up Broad street and played Dixie. And then tho heavens were almost rent with the tremendous cheers. The effigies soon vanished into smoke and ashes, and the outburst of indignation was over temporarily. The band serenaded Mr. Lyons at his home and also serenaded ex-post- master Rer.froe, Several republicans tried to have the thing stopped, but failed to do so. Everything was carried on in an or derly manner. THAT BOND. Another one ia gone from Lewis’s bond, and Lewis is sick at heart. Judge Henry B. Tompkins withdrew yesterday, and wrote Lewis a very salty letter. In his letter he used these words which commend him more than ever to the white people: "I suppose that you would not overlook the fact that my signing you plrtc man’s supremacy. Sou tli, immeasurably above all other worldlv considerations." Northen was not only one of the pos sibilities as a candidate for guberna torial liouors, but that he was practi cally iu the field. , EFFECT OF NORTHKN’S ANNOUNCE MENT. The announcement, however, forces permature consideration of the prospective campaign, and gives per tinence to what may be said of or by other gentlemen who have been nam ed in connection with this high office. Probably no one has been more often or more prominently alluded to in the public press or in private speech, than Hon. F. C. DuBiguon of Chatham, the presidebt of the Georgia Senate. The Telegraph correspondent be lieving that any • utterance from him on the subject at tills time would be of more than casual public inter est, sought him out this morning to have a public interview if possible. FOUND DUBIGNON AT WORK. President du Higuon was found hard at work in his private office at the capitol. Mr. DuBiguon was asked if lie had anything to say iu regard to the gu bernatorial race in view of Mr. North- eu’s declared candidacy. He replied that he did not desire to say anything except to remark that lie regarded Mr. Northen as A most excellent gentleman. 1 then asked Mr. Du Biguou if he would he a candidate himself. DUBIGNON BEGS TO BE EXCUSED. He answered; “You must really excuse me now. Fourteen long intervening months may bringabout a good many changes. Tiie office of governor is one that may well excite the aspirations of any man, but, a fourteen months’ cam paign for a two years’ tenure is rath er onerous. Don’t you think so?" Enlarged Tonsils Removed Without Pain.—Children pale and feeble, often breatliiug hard in their J culture by the people. There was a discussion, in which our immediate Senator participated, on the bill to authorize county com missioners or the ordinaries to hire county convicts to other counties for road work. The bill was not dispos ed of being recommitted. The Sen ate adjourned to Monday! In the House, Mr. Howell’s bill as to the State University Trustees was the principal subject of consideration. UNIVERSITY TRUSTEE BILL. Mr. Howell’s bill to provide a meth od for the choice of trustees of the State University was read the third time. . As the bill includes an appro priation, the House went into com mittee of tiie whole. After being read, the committee reported favoru bly upon the bill. The bill provides that, the board of trustees of tiie University shall con sist of one member from each congres sional district and two from Athens all appointed by tiie Governor and confirmed by the Senate. The term of office will be eight years. Three are to be appointed for two years, three for four years three for six ami three for eight. 4The appointments are to be made every two years as the vacancies occur, Mr. Howell explained tiie measure and urged its adoption. The board now consists, be said, of about forty eight members, halt of whom are elected by the board. The board its elf recommended the passage of some such measure. On the vote the ayes were 118 and the nays 4. There was a lengthy debate on Mr Cliftou’s Oyster bill. The consideration of tho lease of the State Road .was postponed to Monday next. Aua. 10th. Tire Senate was not in session to day In the House only routine business was attended to. Ab oft Told Talo of Daring.
