Daniel Webster said: “One may live as a conqueror, a king or a magistrate; huthe must die as a num ’ ’ In the language of “Smith, of Gwinette”—lda Wells, the kinky headed brunette, should be “regu lated to the rear.” The Philadelphia Record says: “If China should run short on ce reals she might fall back on her crackers.” “Democratic Harmony!’’ And the Journal and the Constitution retire to their respective back yards to “chew rhe rag.” r Lord Chief Justice Russell, of England, has put on a new grey gown, and has taken his sea*. He uses snuff in profusion, and yet feels that he is not to be sneez 'd .=at. Tennessee went democratic last week by an increased majority of 5,000 over the Cleveland vote of *92.

Rain has never been known to fall there, and the inhabitants do not believe travelers when told that water can fall from the skv. Colored people of Philadelphia can boast of having graduated from their ranks the finest artist of their race in America. Henry C Tanner's picture of “The Bagpipe Lesson” excited great interest at a recent academy exhibit. Pu'-umonia in the popular mind is associated with winder weather and cold winds aui r ins. The New York Recorder says:“ I'here is real ly more danger from pneumoniain the v«ry hot spells of summer,be cause people sit m drafts to get or keep cool. Thoir pores are open from the ] roluso perspiration, and thedratt goes right throught them to the vital parts- Above all things keep away from drafts,” Our printing office stands on the precise spot where the old state peui tetiary once stood, and the street in '-ont of the office running directly to the cemetery is called Liberty street. Just a stone’s throw from the office door is the old mansion where the governors Jived before the war, while upon the bill a little nearer, stands the ambitious young Industrial Col lege. Verily, we occupy historic ground —Miliedgville Moon. Ignorant people may talk about a ‘‘contracted” currency, but they do so in the face of facta. Last year 70,000 00U dollars were coined, and the currency increased that much. The per capita is larger now than any time in ten years past, and is being made larger every day. The gov ernment is coining 50,000 standard silver dollars every day, and will keep it up unul $25 7,000,000 more of them ire coined, and also $66,666,667 ac cumulated seigniorage. Daiton Ar— gu-. he Coiumdus Enquirer-Sun thus treats in the proper vein a rather ri diculous episode of the convention: Col. 1 rox Bankaton, pf Catoosa, was one of tl e prominent delegates r) the convention. Trox had heard with great pain, some cheap cam paign slander against Hon. Steve Clay, and. amid some difficulties, brought to the attention of the dele gates. When he heard that the slan der was a lie out of the whole ctoth, he fell upon|the breast of the conven. tion and wept tears of exceeding great joy. ” ALL ACT THE SAME DAY. One of the most praiseworthy acto of the convention was the passage of the tesolution directing that hereafter m Georgia all the counties shall act ou the same day in nominating candidates for Gov ernor and other state house offices. This is indeed a stride in the right directiou and will work to the purification of political meth ods employed inside the party lines. The press of the state led rhe fight for this change and in winning it jhas done reach for Democracy. CHAIRMAN STEVE CLAY. Hon Steve Clay, who was unani mously elected permanent chairman of the state convention, and is one of the best presiding officer© in the South —when we eniplov this com parison, we always mean the entire country, for it is known that the South leads the nation—and his suc cess in handling the great body cd Democrats that assembled yesterdav covered this young leader with glory There is not a truer man or more loyal friend in Georgia than Steve Clay, and’all know that a more pop ular Democrat or more well-fitted leader for the present campaign could n t have been selected. Aggressive, yet fair, positive, but always respectful, courageous yet modest, able, but unassuming, he is today one of the most promising yjuug men in political life.

TENNESSEE IS ALL RIGHT With the defeat of the repub! - can populist ticket the prospects of a fusion controliug Tennessee has passed. Had tne combination been successful at the elect lour Thursday, they would have put ini a fusion supreme cour', the repi • licaus having nominated four ami the populist the other one. With the control of the suprenm bench the election laws framed by democratic legislators and oppos ed by republicans would have beui quashed before the November elec tii-us came ou thus greatly aug menting the republican vote and. almost guaranteeing the election of a fusion governor, a fusion leg islature and t' en a fusion United States senator. In view of this plan the repumi cans made no nomination for gov ernor, but mauy separate count;, conventions ot republicans vote d to indorse Mims,the populist no.r inee. The populist, had the fusion ists captured the legislature,wool J have sent either John H. McD >w ell or ex-GoV'rn ->r. Johu 8. Buc hauan to the United States Sen ate. — Savannah Dispatch. A GOOD PLATFORM. Hon. Wm. Y, Atkinson will be the next governor of Georgia. In adopting a platform Mr, Atkinson uigel that there be no straddle.

The resolution referring to Pres ident Cleveland expresses an abid ing faith in his courage, wisdom, honesty, and patnoism. A strong effort was made to substitute an unqulitied endorsement of flu administration, ‘but it came to< late, as the the convention endors ed the committee report which it in the nature of a compromise be tween the extreme factions, We are glad to see the old Em pire state coming out and takeng such a bo*d stand on the silver question and when the entire na tion wakes up on this question ana gives to silyer its just rights w« will have prosperous time, ami they will not .come until this it done.—Chattooga News. The New York World has inter viewed everybody connected wiH the Nova Scotia coal syndicate,re called, and finds that neither President Cleveland, ex-Secretary Whitney nor Secretary Lamo t has anv connection with it, near or remote.
