So far 4,141 office seekers have reg istered from the State of Missouri. Rome, Ga., and Centre, Ala., are connected by a telephone. The Alabama Press Association wi’l meet at Talladega the 7th of next A pnl. Jackson county’s, Ala , total vote on prohibition was 3,256; a majority 1)44 against prohibition. The social, religions, and political status and relation of the negro are go ing to be questions with the Ameri can people. A camel will work seven or eight days without drinking. In this it differs from many men. who drink eeven or eight days without work. “Resolved that the negro should bo put back in bondage” has been de bated alreaby in Indiana, and decided in the negative. Foor(?) darkey can rest easy. The two most noted figures in the long procession, at the inauguration, which filed by the reviewing stand, were Generals Lee and Hancock; < ne a Confederate, and the other a Federal. A correspondent in an exchange says, “by the Grace of God they were made husband and wife.” We always thought that it was by the par ies own Grace aud pleasnre, and the grace of God to follow. Gen. Neal Dow, ‘(the hero of New Orleans,” having again quit the Re publican party, does not know where to go, as neither tha Democrats nor Prohibitionists will have him, and the Battler party is defunct. lie wil probably have to “flock off by himself, i m The Alabama legislature has pass ed an act making it penal for a i er'son to appear or be in public, or in the presence of one or more ii.dividual?, except at home, in an intoxicated con dition; the penalty being SIOO. In toxication is no excuse for crime, therefore it will bring a new feature in the law of evidence. The Sunny South is making some strange ami uncomplimentary impres sions on the minds of a portion of the Northern Exposition visitors, or that clement does not reflect anything creditable to the North. No question hut that a spirit of indiffeience and disrespect to.vanls, and superiority over the Sonth pervades the Northern mind. We can judge for our selves, when, in passing through on the cars, they make sport of the our country, and on returning, a long article ap pears in a journal, with such an ex presbion a*; ‘passing from Chattanoo ga to New Orleans in ?. catile car, leaving the Pullman Sleeper of the North” and, whet', stopping for their to “Supposing that "vervthing - ,■, . p ,. > • ’ ' • i It was noticeable that Hem'ticks at traoted more attention and applause at the inauguration than Cleveland. Mr. Cleveland insisted upon a plain and informal trip to the capitol, ind no reception on his arrival. The press and people of the State are speaking out in unmeasured con demnation of Joe Brown in the Spjei outrage. The legislature should pass aresolution of censure and request him to resign a position lie has dishonored —Sparta Isiimaei.ite Hon. 4’. J. Lumpkin, of Dade, is the man to introduce the resolution. He is one of the Representatives that have not been bought by Brown. —Ac worth News <y Parmer. Joe Brown was decidedly and work ed for Speer’s confirmation; though unexplainable, yet we do not see any leasoa for questioning his honor and integrity on the account of it. One thing certain, lie was open and bold in the matter, and nothing exists irom which to conceive an idea that it was for any personal advantage. We are strongly of the opinion that the “press and people”, and the world and devil will assume a task that they can never accomplish, when they attempt to con vince twelve “intelligent and upright” men of a single instance wherein Joe Brown has over sacrificed the iiiterots of the people of Georgia for his own nor any private individual or corpora tion, though soma of his public acts are not consonate with onr feelings If he has dishonored the position which he occupies, the people of Geor gia are dishonored .It is certainly tine' that our Hon. T. J. Lumpkin is not bought by Joe Brown, and we would consider it a slur upon our sister coun ties to intimate tliet their Representa tives were men that could be so bought Hon. T. J, LumpkiN will never bead such \ resolution, though Joe Brown’s employees without just cause opposed his election from this comity. A very bitter crusade against tobac ca is organixsng in New England, According to the temperance society in that enlightened region, the use of tobacco is ‘‘a sin againstsGod and hu manity.” An eminent philanthropist in Maine is helping on the good work by refusing to give a cent in charity to any family that keeps a dog or has a tobacco consumer in it. Prohibition in Georgia. Out of the 138 counties in Georgia there are now 101 that have total or partial pr diibtiion, and 92 that have total prohibition. r l his result has been reached by elections in each county under the local option law. In 105 county elections the prohibitionists have lost but 4--WaHhington, Deca tur (two liea\y negro counties) Floyd and Gordon Tiie work will go ou steadily until, in our opionion, 132 counties out of the 138 will be prolii tionaiy. A general local option law will be passed this summer which will test the matter in every county in wliieli whiskey is still sold. Elrf.rton, Ga., March 7.

(Atlanta) A Teit Thousand Dollar Damage Suit. * The Chattanooga Times a few days since published a dispatch troin Blunt county, Ala., to the effect, that Alvin Dixon, tax cellector of that county, had left home one night, leaving a large amount of the tax money in care oi liis wife, and returning with his face blacked, attempted to rob hi> own bowse ot the money, whereupon his wife shot and killed him. It not only appears that the entire matter is a fabric, but Dixon has been tax col leetot for ten years and a man of a good family and himself of high stand ing. With “anger in his heart anil litigation in his mind” lie has filed a libel suit against the Times, claim ing ipi.o,ooo dsmages. It is stated that lie will also prosecute a enmina action against the manager of tin rimes in Alabama, Dodson <fc Moon •d ‘o’- thp prosecution, ami A H oru t Boys, don’t swear or use any other j bad language that may cause yom triends to be ashamed of you. Swear ing is a mark of low-breeding, and its tendency is, to degrade the mind. Its injurious’' effects may not be felt at the piesent time, but the linpit will continue to grow, until it will lie al most impossible to brake it. A bad word or slang phrase learned in boy hood will always be ready on your tongue’s end, and will often cause you shame and sorrow as well as your friends. Good people when sick and deliiious, bave been known to use the most wicked and improper language, and when told of it afterwards attrib uted it to early impressions and hab its. The oae’of hlang phrases, so com mon now a-day is really disgusting to people ol intelligence and nfincment. Girls, don’t you fall into this habit. Il any one in the family must rC | foil t them, let your big brother do it. You have no idea how it sounds to a per son not used to it, to beer a young la dy say, when asked to go to a certain place, “Not much,” oi if asked to write a short article for the Times, hear bed say, “(JanP'jseo it.” \Ye sonietimer hear a young lady in speak ing of a young gentleman, say, she intands “to go tor him,” and perhaps if that same voting gentleman calls to take her buggy riding, she will an- swer, “Not fai Joe.” Young ladies of good character and good education sometimes fall into this habit, think ing it shows wit and smartness, but if they would look at the matter cor icctly they would at once see it is neither lady-like or becoming. “I bet” “you bet” sounds badly enough among boys trading jack-knives, or men trad ing horses, but the contrast is shock ing when we boar a young lady repeat them. They seem at once to lowei her in the ranks of intelligence and refinement, and place her on a level with men of rough character, from whom she would naturally shrink with horror and disgust. Good lan guage is the blossom of good sense, so let each one cultivate it as a choice plant, M. A. Hovey. Lower Sai.ek, Ohio Fku. Isth 1885, g t V Cole 6’ity March, 1885.

At Atlanta, midnight Saturday, when, tho drill stopped, the artesian well 1,481 ft. deep, working in a hard granite formation through a column of water 1..'177 feet. Col. Baum, while still certain of striking an arte sian stream, said that he (foes not now expect it before tho depth of 1,800 feet. The latest thing is tbe*vr»v of an advertis ing dodge is a balloon, which is owned by the Dawson Ari-KAi.. Appeal is going to »«Ld np the balloon on Saturday night, March 17, if the weather is (air. Attached to it will hen card giving a years subserption to the Appeal to the and returning the balloon Newton county will enter suit against Hen ry county at tbe iijirtf jaching term of court to recover one-half of the amount expended in re-building 1.-dnnd Shout* bridge. About two years ago the bridge was swept away by the freshet. Newton county wanted it replaced, but llenrv refused to bear the proportional expense that would have bt-oi: entailed upon her. Newton went ahead then and built the bridge, and now seeks to recover half tho a mouut spent ill ils.eoustuction. The claim mounts to something over si,ooo. The meeting of the spring court* reopens the work of the grand juries- and from the presentments ef these bodies the latest ex pressions of the popular will may be learned. One thing is notable in all tUo presentments of tho last two years and that is tho decline of crimes in tho counties which have adopted prohibitory legislation. It would seem that the loss in revenue flour the refusal to license whiskey shops is “more than balanced by the lessened c.iminal expenses of tho county.
