IBARNUM’S STILL HUNT.
According to a New York corres
pondent of the Philadelphia Times,
the apparent quiet of Mr. William 11.
Barnum as contrasted with the rather
ostentatious activity of the Chairman
of the Republican National Commit
tee, does uot indicate that Mr. Bar
man is idle bj- any means. He lias
gone about unheralded, and is put
ting in bis word quietly, where it will
“do the most good.” No effort has
been spared to allay differences and
secure through organizations in New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut,
and Mr. Barnum has been in Indiana
and Ohio in person, superintending
operations. He is not disposed to
waste any money in trying to carry
Maine, or to reduce the Republican
majority in Vermont for mere effect;
but he does intend to defend the
Democratic possession of Indiana
with vigor, and to carry the war into
Africa by making such an attack on
the Republican control of Ohio as
will give them all they want to do to
save it in October.
The correspondent has no doubt of
the efficacy of Mr. Barnum’s “still
hunt,” and says that he and English,
between them, have made assurance
doubly sure in Indiana and have
made Ohio a realy doubtful State.
Ohio may be a doubtful State, but
it must be.admitted that the doubt is
strongly in favor of the Radicals.
Fortunately Democratic success does
not depend on the yote of the Buck
eye State.—Savannah News.
"FACTS” THEN AND NOW,
The people have not Ibrgotton the
Seventh district—that memorable
campaign two years ago. How the
people at a distance looked with pride
and pleasure, at that glorious victory
certainly to be achieved by the gal
lant Lester—so the Atlanta Constitu
tion said. How that noble man
went from county to county con-
quring and to cciiqur. Felton was
met upon the stump and deruol
ised kt one fell s troop—so the Atlan
ta Constitution said. How we re
joiced ! So badly whipped was he
that he never dared to meet Ids op
ponent any more—so the Constu
tion said. Every train passing
through the district was poked;
every town and every militia district
was polled ; every nose in the district
was counted —and Lester certainly,
beyond all doubt, cavil or possible
conjecture had the district by about
50U0 majority—so the Constitution
said. So sure was the victory that
several, seeking preferment, were
about to apply for the vacant judge
ship soon to be made by Lester’s
promotion; hut the election day came
—the votes were counted, and our
favorite was beaten several thousand
votes ! Wo were sick ! We disliked
Felton worse than ever, but we felt
no little chargin that the Constitution
had so badly, so badly, deceived us
as to the true situation.—Valdosta
Times.
ThT same Constitution is now in
the governor electing business, and
is making similar predictions to Col
quitt’s succes that he was df Lester’s
two years ago.

Found at Last. — The lost tribes of
Israel have been searched tor much
longer than Charley Ross, and have
been “found” nearly so often. The
latest discovery has been a Russian
traveler and journalist, W. J. Rem
irowitch-Dantsclienko, who has found
them in the Caucasus, and of course
has written a book about them.
They were found in the mountains of
Daghestan, in a place where travel
ers never came before. They are
warlike and resemble the Cossacks
in appearance, but they follow the
old Mosaic law as it existed before j
the time of Ezra and the second
building of the Temple, without any
knowledge of Talmudic traditions |
and forms, and they claim to have j
lived where they now are ever since !
the time of Psahjionassar. They j
keep the Mosaic law in regard to a j
man’s marrying a deceased brother’s j
wife, and make a first rate red wine, ]
which they drink regardless of solo- j
onion’s admonitions.—Savannah j

FRAiiK AND JESSE JAMES.
Hon. J. A. Dacus of St. Louis,
the well known editor and ex-Member
of the Missouri Legislature, has writ
ten a carefully prepared “Life and
Adventures of Frank and Jesse
James,” which lias been issued by
the well known publishing nouse of
N. D. Thompson & Co., of that city.
Mr. Dacus, we are informed, spent
two years in the preparation of this
work, much of which time was with
the family and friends of the James
Boys, whose friendship and confi
dense he gained, and who gave him
all the facts concerning their antece
dents and ancestry as well as the
facts concerning the almost number
less robberies, dashing raids and
vengeful murders committed by them
during the 20 years of their career
in nearly as many states, and terri
tories. The bock is the most startling
record ever made in history. The
careers have no parallel in the his
tory of highwaymen. Bold and
dashing to a degree that seemed
reckless to personal danger, yet
they have never been apprehended
during this long period through re
wards to the amount of 870,000
have been offered for their arrest,
dead or alive. The book is sold by
subscription, and we are informed by
the publishers that 21,000 iicvc been
sold in four months. Agents are
reaping a rich harvest with it. We
advertise it in another coumr.
