BATUBDAY MAUCH ai.wt
Mb. GbobgbGuav. whu was elected
eenaior to fill the vacancy ot Mr.
Bayard was installed into ins place as
senator on Thursday.
Thb Greenville Vindicator is not
the biggest paper that comes to this
office, but there are but lew that we
nilas more wnen it fails.
Tub literary societies ot the uni
versity of Georgia have resolved to
Invite Colonel J. W. Danii ls, of
Richmond. Virginia to de.,ver the
commencement address.
Am arithmetical offi'C'Seeker has ac
cording to Brother Gilman, made a
caciculation that It will at the present
rate of removal take just iiftv-eeven
years and nine months to “clean the
rascals out,**
Mi. Blaisb works six hours a dny.
Mr. Cleveland works—as long as
there Is anything important to do.
But Mr. Biane hasn’t got thirty
eight states to work for, and there Is
where the difference comes in.
Bboaubh Bismarck will be seventy
years old on the first day of April,
no one must take him to be an April
fool. He may be a fool, but that Is
not his character among the big
brains of the world.
Thb president, a day or so ago, re
ceived Arch Bishop Gibbons, of
Baltimore, in the blue room of tnc
white bouse, and passed a half hour
with his reverence. Os course Dr.
Burchard will again yell out some
thing. Romanism, etc.
Thbsun will "oro-is the line” to
morrow or the day after. We are
Impatient for the crossing to take
place. The blizzard side of the line
does not suit us at this seaeon of the
year. Os the two, we would rather
our bones would parch than freeze.
Tub burning of the James block In
Atlanta the otner night, was a sad
affair, aside from the loss of valuable
property. One old gentleman, a Mr.
Canfield was burned to death, and
several other persons were badly
hurt.
* Wb are glibly told that when we
want anything that we don’t see, ask
your member of congress for It.
Well, what then? Suppose he likes
the otheb fellow beet? We have a
member of congress who has been
liberally Importuned. Who will he
make happy?
B. H. Hill, Jb, son of the lute
senator of that name, has been ap
pointed by Mr. Cleveland United
States district attorney for the north
ern district, of Georgia. The senate
will doubtless confirm the nomina
tion.
S s
A little society of Dunkards, a
vanity of the Quaker brotherhood,
we believe, up in Pennsylvania, have
lately been ilftted out ot their spare
cash by the "going up” of a Dunkard
banker. Well, these good people
have but little use for filthy lucre,
and we hope they will n ever miss
what thev have lost.
Thb tekgrai h operators of the
Btnkers & Merchants’ line quit
work Thursday night, and went on a
strike—cause, not paid. It sounds
queer in this mortgage ridden conn,
try that the employes of the Bank
ers & Merchants’ telegraph line in
the north cannot be paid, and yet so
It is.
Thb people of Ailania have raised
by subscription S4,(NX) for the purpose
of securing the sitting of the commer
cial convention soon to be held in
that city. Atlanta merchants and
business people are a wonderfully
liberal set of workers. They deserve
success in all good enterprises, for
their pluck is amazing.
The English commanders in the
Biudau turn out their men some
times to see if they can find any ene
mles unpleasantly near. ThU would
be a pleasant exercise were it not for
the fact that they can, by just look
ing over the hills a little ways, find
more Arabs than they want to see.
Arabs are not good neighbors In war
times.
Bomb of the western states are cul
tivating the Oatalpa tree. They grow
very rapidly and in a few years make
good cross-ties—so says an exchange.
Now, what we want to know is
whether they take along with the
tree the Oatalpa worm? The worm
is a huge and rapid an insect growth
as the tree is as a vegetable growth -
Det them go together.
Bomb of the old Inhabitants of offi
dal pigeon-holes about Washington
are disposed to sneer at the new de
parture of the new heads of the de
partments In selling off unnecessary
horses and carriages that have
heretofore been kept for family use,
at public expense. But sneers will
not receive popular sympathy, fort he
idea is wide-spread that official life
at the capitol has been too expensive
for a long series of years. The
masses will approve a return to
purer habits.
Jambs Stephens, the great Fenian
head center of a former period, has
been expelled from France for poll'i
cal reasons, and is said to be in a
dying condition. His wife has writ
ten to frietds In Ireland for aid—be
Is very poor. The tax imposed upon
Irish industry by Irish agitators, to
support so-called “leaders” lu their
work of disturbance would go a
long way towards paying their rents.
These leaders find it profitable to be
come too violent to stay, and they go
abroad and live in clover.
UKORUIA Bins* FOR HALE
Bvau advert.is-mipt iu another
pl »ce it will b seen tha’ the state of
G >ergH Is mvPing bldg for a Ht<le
over tUr> e an 1 a half millions of her
The.i Ivertisemeut fully >x
p’ai is all th. cipi’ailsfe will uc d to
know about th<-m. Tt>ey,arerenewal
bonds, and art to run thirty years, »t
five percent, payable in N -wyorkAt.
These bond should bring as much
in the market, and probably will, a
any bonds now afloat. The state is
in as sound a financial condition as
any state In the union, and Is be
coming stronger anu stronger each
ye <r in her resources—f ir, while she
owns valuable, marketable property
enough to pay all her debts, if sold,
her tax ible wealth is constantly In
creasing, and her indebtedness yearly
decreasing. Her entire debt is only
15.7u4 000, and h< r railroad alone is
wot h the debt, and when sold, the
con titution requires the proceeds to
be applied t.o the payment ot her
public debt. No safer investment
can be made than these bonds offer.
Immiguation to the south from
Europe or the northern section of
this country is a slow-going thing,
and we have never felt any regret
that it is io. The Idea of filling this
fair land up with a promiscuous peo
ple has never fired the southern
mind to any considerable extent. To
be sure some emigrant brokers and
agents who sought pay from
the state or speculating land
companies have written and
worked some to get up a furor in that
direction, but they have signally
failed, and deservedly so,as we think.
Ah we have often said,we like to have
foreigners of a good class to corne
among us and become citizens with
us, but we do not want that class, no
matter where from, widen Is known
as “emigrants,” and which come and
move according to the behests of paid
agents. This is a good country, and
we are wilUng that it should be k< pt
for gradual development, by ita na
tural and legitimate native popula
tion. The meeting of what was
called the “Southern I nmigration
society,” In Now Orleans the other
day, was very nearly a failure, and
nothing was done that will amount to
a row of pins toward forwarding the
object of the gathering.
Skouetahv Mannino is to issue a
Call for $10,000,0(10 In bonds in a few
days. This will offer him a good op
portunity to get rid of some of that
huge pile ot silver dollars that has
caused «uch distress among the gold
worshippers.
The Athene Banner wants tp know
If the Constitution, in advocating the
establishment of state banks, ever
thought how the state has lost by
* wild oat banks.”
Wo notice this for the purpose of
asking the Banner if It overestimated
the enormous sums paid by the banks
and people of the state to (be north
in unuual interest for the use of
money sent down here. Nearly al)
t he mon< y we see belongs to northern
banks and bankers. The gold and
silvoa certificates that wo have here,
ami like so well, are issued to repre
sent gold and silver belonging to
northern bunkers, and they get Inter
est on them as long ot they float
L’he entire banking capital of Geor
gia at pres< nt Is not mate than Co
lumbus shoul i have, if her buain< ss
is to be sustained, and her people
supplied with money at moderate
rates of Interest. But there need be
no “wild cat”bankß, even though the
stales again assume control of their
own currency. Yet. should there be,
md one break occasionally, the loss
would scarcely exceed the amount
paid for the use of foreign capi
tal. Before the war, when
what the Banner culls the “wild oet”
system ot b inking pr >vall< d in G< ( or
gia, these biuks did a large an 1 pr f
liable business in buying up southern
merchants’.papers in New York and
other northern markets. In these
days credits were larger than they
are now. Merchants bought goods
on from tour to eight months time,
and sold them to their customers on
account to run through the year, and
the volume of currency needed was.
not so great as now, hence,tbe b f inks
often had large surpluses on hand,
whlcn were used, as stated above, in
buying up the papers of southern
merchants in the north. It is true
ihitt these banks sometimes “broKe,’’
when recklessly managed, and so
they do now, but as every city had
Its own banks and furnished its own
locality with currency, lu very large
part, the losses by breaking were
rarely ever very heavy. Believing
that a safe sys’em of state banking
can be devised, and that these banks
can be ably and honestly managed
under state supervision, we agree
with toe Constitution, and would ask
for the states the right to operate
their own banking system.
The railroads which compete for
freight about Chattanooga and west
ward are cutting rates, and putting
things down pretty low, comparative
ly. We bear of no more however, in
the chambers of commerce or among
merchants of the competing pointe
at which these “ruinous” r ites are
made, intervening between the com
peting parties, and suggesting higb< r
freight that all may live and do well.
That has been suggested In the mak
ng of boat freight on the Chatta
hoochee river, just as if the boat
companies could iot take care of
themselves now as they have always
done. We have no interest in the
matter one way or the other.
Wb have no liking for John Sher
man. but we can’t help seeing some
force in the following from the Ohlca
go Herald: “rhe upstart McLean,
of Cincinnati, is makiug his brags
that he will succeed John Sherman
as senator from Ohio. When Ohio
trades off Sherman tor McLvan it
will be about time to let the hogs in
and have the state rooted up.” The
fact is that Ohio can And much truer
and better men than either. One Is
cold, sardonic, bitter and sectional;
the other trleky and unscrupulous.
