EDI TORI A I/COM ME XT. | Alliens is making propara tion for a fine hotel. The president's message is re ceiving a good deal of criticism from all sides. The Tribune says Carncsville is badly in need ol a school. Ditto llomer. . The Athens Haulier says “tlio 51st, Congress goes to work wilh two able preachers to pray for it.” The president does not intend to sleep over his rights in Ids ap pointing power to ollice. lie is putting them in and out at a rapid rate. Col. Grady has returned from his trip through the north. The Constitution now contain* able articles on negro emigration in the south. The Atlanta Journal says ov er SIO,OOO of the Davis fund has t>een subscribed in Georgia. This ought to be enough tor the empire state. Col. Smilh f Gwinnette county, is spoken as a probable candidate tor congress from this distriet. There will be several other prominent names mention ed in connection with the race. A few nights ago, while “Un cle Tom’s Cabin” was being played in Jehnstewn, Fa., some one gave the alarm of lire. Dttr mg the stampede ten were kill ed and several wounded. The long-discussed and com plicated tariff-question is rising le the surface again. Congress is likely to have some hot de bates over the matter in the near tufure. The Jeff'. Davis fund consti tutes two —one for the relief of his family, the other for a moo ument. Both will be raised without any inconvenience on the part of the southern states. Those northern papers that have been crying out mock tri ais in the south, will find 'usl at home—the Dr. Cronin murder trial just ended in Chic Ago, is a tarce in the~eyes of jus‘ice. The long a ad wearisome trial of the Dr. Cronin murder in Chicago, has at last ended. One of the prisoners were acquitted, one given thre> years, and three given a iile-time in the peniten tiary. At a meeting in a negro Bap fist church in Kansas City, Mo., a few days ago, a lively row took place, in which chairs, hymn nooks and razors were used to the seriously wounding ot sever al. The preacher prayed for peace, but it would not prevail. It now turns up that (lie train robbery on the Mobile it Ohio .railroad, at Buckatunna, in Mississippi, sever*' months’ ago, was done by flu be Smith and an accomplice named McCluney. i’!iey have been captured and iden'id >1 M.

Ctme and see us. They are in the majority, and the result may be a telling blow to the alliance, as it would bring jute below competition of any other staple. The New York Mail and Ex press launtingly says that Tam many is swallowing tha eounfy democracy so fast that it resem bles a gorged boa constrictor. We hope that the swallowing will go on. If appears to us to be the best thing to promote Democratic harmony in New York ar.d make the success of the party sure. The bitterest paper in the country, in its notice of the death of Mr. Davis and tli9 ut terances ef the southern press speakers on the event, is the New York Tribune. Yet the Tribune is the paper founded by Horace Greely, and which he so long and tbly edited; and Mr. Greely was the chief bondsman ot Mr. Davis to obtain his re lease frem prison. But no Hoi ace Greely, nor any man of his calibre, now edits the Tribune. The Chattanooga Tradesman makes an estimate frem reports ot governors and comptrollers of the several states, that the cen sus next year will exhibit a gain of 33 per cent, in the popul ition of the southern stites during the last ten years. Its estimate giv es Georgia 2,165,541 population, and Alabama 1,658,453. We hope that the Federal enumera tion will sustain this claim. If so, the increase in the south must be as great as that of any other section. A great deal is being said about emigration ot the negro in Ihe South. The color line has been, and always will be drawn in the South. Yet, the negro enjoys the freedom ot his race as much as in the north, l'he south has never indicated his alienation. This is being done voluntarily of his own will. If he sees lit to seek other ceuntries, the southern people have no objec tion. They have long since his emancipation, learned to doff' the “ruffle-shirt” and don the “home-spun.” It is not necessary lor north ern papers to ask superiluous questions on the po : nt of negro emigration. The South is too prosperous to note their atten tion. The negro can not receive better treatment than in the southern states. Dick Hawes, tiro Birming ham murderer, is despairing iu hope of ever escaping fho gal lows. A rope was foun lin his cell a few days, ago. Sheriff Smith removed him 1o another cell dressed in anew suit of clothes. A case is now pend ing in the Supreme court for a nsw hearing. It is hardly prob able the- decision of the lower will be reversed. C. W. Hood & Son, HARMONY GROVE, GA.
