The situation at Washington seems to be this: The Administra tion has no apprehension of a war with Spain, but th inks it well to h;.ve as formidable a fleet as possi ble readv for any emergency, with an extra supply of ammunition on board. The New York Journal publish es this financial item I'hat Geor gia financiers who was carried away with the reports of returning prosperity to the extent of raising the figures on stock certificates managed to g t several paces ahead of the procession-” Pfibably the highest-priced stock in the world is that of the London water company—the New River Company —one share ot which was recently s dd a auction for 8G25.,0U' > . At this price it yields a revenue of 2 1-6 per cent Shares in the company were mice to be puichas p d at less than sl,- 500. Now thev are usually dispos ed of in twentieths or even hun dredths. The Augusta Chronicle says: ‘Governor Atkinson has retired from the senatorial race. The great factor in his defeat for the Senate is the overwhelming Democratic sentiment of Georgia against an other election fur governor. It is not because of any want of confi dence in the governor that he eas bum compelled to ’ retire, hut be en us the people are tired of elec tion' They need a rest from poll- ’ tio< ” Sditcr Stoval thinks the result I oi /Tie present senatorial fight may ; be a catnpiign nex* year between I dftßignon and Berner for governor! with f 'k.v hacking dußignon and I Atkl- -it backing Berner. He says: “This would be a pretty race fur goveruov, Berner and dußignon. If dußignon could carry South Georgia, so'i<lly r Clay could carry North Georgia for him and this ».u’.d be a hard combination to beat. Both men are fine orators I Berner has hardly a superior in the I South as a campaign speaker. He , has the flashing eye and the com manding presencejoi a real Tua i, Bob Berner has always been an ex treme anti-railroad man and a strong temperance man. Dußig non has won his spurs on tne hus t ugs as well as in the court house. The campaign will be one of ora t ry—it will be one of oratory —it will recall the palmy days of Bob Toombs and Ben Hill. Georgians have a treat in store if these two men meet and try conclusions in S -.-iking joust and joint debate. ’ Complaint is mauetha' in the Cape Cod cranberry bogs the na tive pic-xers have been supplanted by Italians, Kimis and Swedesand that thus another Amer m indus try has passed into ii;-. minds of foreign rs.

Bill Atkinson is nearer the people of Georgia today than < ver before. ATKINSON’S RETIBEMENT. The speech of Governor Atkin son in withdrawing from the sena torial race has p aced him on a high plane and Secu’od for him ■ the warm esteem of many who I hitherto were not so warmly dis posed to him. Ii must be confessed that in the present race the antagonism was not to the governor himself but to another e'ection. If he had not been hampered he would have won > out loiiz ago. In representing such . to be the case he, therefore, stated , nothing more than the tvu h. It was like wise true as the g v- I • | ernor slated, that his opp ments had paid him the c mpliment of not seeking to measure arms with . him :n the ground of abili y. Ou thul score they must have suffered j defeat. It was a manly act on the p rt ? o ’the governor to retire from the 5 rice rather that jeopardize the . g ivernorship and prolong the fur I moil which has already obstructed pub ic business to a deplorable de gree. He leaves the rac- with the c msciousness of having fought 1 with bis old lime vim and vigor e and is followed ty the plaudits o> v r is people. Augusta Hera d Boils It is often difficult to convince peo ple their blood is impure, until dread ful carbuncles, abscesses, boils, scrof ula or salt rheum, are painful proof of the fact. It is wisdom now, or when ever there is any indication of Impure blood, to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and prevent such eruptions and suffering. “I had a dreadful carbuncle abscess, red, fiery, fierce and sore The doctor at tended me over seven weeks. When the abscess broke, the pains were terrible, and I thought I should not live through it. I heard and read so much about Hood’s Sarsaparilla, that I decided to take it, and my husband, who was suffering with boils, took it also. It soon purified our Blood built me up and restored my health so that, although the doctor said I would not be able to work hard, I have since I done the work for 20 people. Hood’s Sar saparilla cured my husband ot the bolls, and we regard it a wonderful medicine.” , Mrs. Anna Peterson, Latimer, Kansas. Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier.

W ceuU.’ | THE HUSTLErt OF ROME WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER, 18 1896 '(QyhtUEyE Mr. Bill Drennon, the wide-a wake Second avenue blacksmith, tells me that while hunting a few days ago, a few miles from Rome, up the Oos anaula, he ano his par ty saw the famous bell buzzard. H i ' says the bell was about 21 inches long and looked to be made of s >me metal of a whiter color than brass Mr. Drennon saw the fa mous bind flying down'stream late in the afternoon. The bell was not ringing then, but the next morning "hen the hunting party left camp tney saw the buzzard perched on a limb of a dyad tree. When they mad ■ him leave his pi rch the bell rang out right merrily. * * 1 nctici that the autho ities are having the appraaches to tne Sec ond Avenue iron bridge n ver the Oostanaula made good. This work is not being done a day too soon. And then, it’s the most propeiestest mng to do to keep the bridge open. Rome has many iron bridges but not more than she needs and needs right badly. * * Officers John Huffman and J t Johnson left the city at an early hour this morning for a bird hunt, up the O istanaula. They returned ah -ut 10 o'clock with a fine pris oner. i lie man’s name is Jim W atts and he is wanted on half a dozen charg j s, by Sheriff Durham, of Gordon county.
