There were 276 failures in the U, - B. last weok, and 13 of that num ber in Georgia, = The radicals seem to manifest some uneasiness about Ben But ler’s candidacy. . ~ The republicans have nomina ted two negroes, P. R. Wilkingon and Tvy Farmer, for the legislature in Coweta county. Rev. Robert Hardin, who - lives “piear Hoopers Mills, Ala., and who was niarried last Sunday, was as gaulted the same day while on his way to one of his appointments Wwith his new wife, and severely cut _with a knife by Dock Wallace. ~ Bwarms of locusts have appear ed in Mexico. Although thou sands have been killed, great de- Struction to crops has resulted. It is said that over a hundred square miles of county is covered with them, destroying corn, grass and other erops. It is reported that thougands of families, dependent upon small crops will have to be suppoited by the government for 4he next six mionths. - Ben Rutler’s record 15 by no means favorable one. It is said that the only damage he did to the confederates during the iwar was stealing their cotton and selling it, and wrongfully executing two pris oners, Since the war, fvhi]e,in con gres, he has voted in favor of land grabbers and monopoliste. He has been regarded in congiess asin the ~—pourts as the attorney of monopo lists. Now he comes out under the disguising plea that he is the la boring man’s friend. A new paper to be publishéd in the.interest of the:Blaine campaign started in New York this week, This in connection with the cor ruption fund and all other frauds they may practice, without a re nnion of the party and & more firm organization, will not secure his election. The republican party is too corrupt to stand. The labor ing clasg of these United States can no longer claim protection un der its foul and corrupt adminis tion. They demand protection, and must have it. Under its ad ministration it has protected tliose who need no protection—the capi talist und the millionaire; it has oppressesed those who need no op pregsion—the laboring class being its vietims. E | * Some of the best imen in-the re publican party have deserted its ranke dnd have sought refuge in the prohibition party, while others will flock to the embrace of Ben Butler, the so-called friend of the Jaboring man . Some,%” how ever, will support the nominee of of the radical party: and stand; by it, despite its record of . shame and corruption of ‘a quarter-of a cent ry, through all the trials and vis citudes of the campaign, ‘to suffer a mobt inglorlous defeat next No- VOmber, .» .- .o e e ¢ ‘The prospects for the olection of Uleveland and Hendricks are grow ing brighter every ~day. Every thing, . with but . few _exceptions, is moving along quietly, . peacably and harmoniously. With such a gicket, which has met the approba tion and apptoval of all true dem-, ocrats (and nhost of honest repub licans,) and the unobjectionable’ platformi adoyited, which embodies. ‘the tfue principles of {-ge‘mocmcy, any onecan readily ~appprehond ‘that we are marching on to demo-' oratic victory. : ' ‘ itis sad that Cleveland is a fine libi)]‘ii\lig man—erect, a head’ ‘and aeck that rise up like a colunin of granite and a face ot rugged pow er. It is not a serene face, not one full of unrcasoning, conscienceless ambition, such as Napoleon had, but one of dauntless courage and unflagging perseverance,; tem ’pered with benignity and the soflter ‘traits of humanity. John A, Logan originated and introduced in the Illinois Legisla ture of 1853 the law making ita misdemeanor for any ‘‘negro or mulatto, bond or free,” to enter the state and remain ten days,with the intention of permianently resi ding there ; and providing that the negro or mulatto convicted of that heinious crime might be sold at auction to the highest bidder. 1t requires something more than a can.paign of slander to defeat a strong presidential candidate. Gen aral Jackson suffered more in this respect than any of our great men, Among other things he was accus ed of murder, seduction and adul-1 tery. Circulars with coffins printed at the top were sgnt broadcast through the -country charging Jackson with murder of three eiti zens. This was proven to be an absolute falsehood. The stories a bout Mrs. Jackson were cruel and baseless, but they had the effect of killing the unfortunate Jady, who died between her husbandg election and inauguration. A campaign lie is very much like aboomerang. Constitution Scarcely any of the pictures of the Democratic standard bearer do him jus tice. The most of them #re atrociously bad, Few of them, and none that we have seen for sale in this city convey a just conception of the firmness and ener gy of his character, which is so clearly delineated in his features. They fail to show that kindly twinkle of the eye, or, as a gentleren who called upon him re cently pute it, ‘that make-yourself-at honte expression’ which his visitor does not fail to observe. His pictures give him the appearance of a man fond of ease. His appearance indicates a man devoted to laborious and pains-taking work. He is evidently dignified in appearance and deimeanor, and at the same time emi nently simple and cordial in manner IHis utterances show hini to be a man who possessey a great and wellbalanced mind. His acts stamp hith as inan of dauntless cburage arid iron will. He isa good, a grogt, and a growing man. —Bog ton Post. | Bachelor Presdents, l | It is a remarkable fact that no party but the Democrats have evar elected a ‘bachelor president. The. laßt president ‘the Democrats have elected, who served out his term, was a bachelor, Jas. Buec haunan. The last president %the Democrats elected, who did not serve out his term, was a bachelor, Samuel J. Tilden. The preseént npminee of thg Democrats, and who will be elected and serve his {erm, is a bachelor, for *‘the stars have gaid”’ no bachelor ean be beaten who is-a can didate for president. No bachelor .who has ever been a candidate for president has ever been defeated.~Atlanta Jour nal. Hon, Allen G. Thuirman at the Columbug, Qhio, ratification meet ing said he had never geen and did uot personally know Cleveland,but from what he heard he was able, thoroughly honest, a strong and vigorous man of sterling sense, a Democrat dyed in the wool: .He had resorted to no dishonorable means whatever ‘to sccure his his nomination, and would make a good and safe President. - For a quarter of a century he had kriown Hendiicks {o be -one of the . most highnmiinded and truest men in this cotitry, In Mississppi hugging socicties have been introduced to swell the chuich treasuries,and a paper gives the follwiiig scale of prices: Girls under 16 twenty-five cents for each hug of two Hintiets ; froni 16'to 20 years of age, fifty cents; fiom 20 to 25, Geventy-five , cents: :school ma’ms’ forty cents : widows,accord ing to looks;front ten cents to $2: old miids, threc cents apiece, or two for 4 nitkle, and riot any lim it of time.

A man got a letter here some time ago from his son out west, who had been lately ad mitted, in which he stated that he was “doing a thriving business.” The old man had it published in the Times, and by a misprint it read “thieving business.” Col.
