EDITORIAL NOTES. Three weeks more and this family fight will end. §■■«. The late storm was very destruc tive in Jamiaca. Colquitt’s friends are using money pretty freely to capture the colored Vote. tides the State Road belong to Georgia or Georgia to the State kostd ?. The Quitman Reporter is to be re moved from Quitman and published in Way cross. The steamer V eracrnz was wrecked oil the coast of Florida during the late equinoctial gale, and all on board lost. Colquitt’s oliice is to be perpetua ted because he fought, a battle at Olustee. Is he the only general that ever fbught a battle? He has recei ved pay for his war record. judge James Jackson, associate judge of the Supreme court, has been appointed Chief Justice by the gover nor to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Judge Hiram Warner.

Let Sir. Colquit tell the colored jieoplt all about the penitentiary con victs, who, under his administration, have been neglected and allowed to be eaten by vermin and die from disease from neglect. Yes, by all that is right, let him tell them of his official neglect, of the suffering and death by it. jixbbF, Black.— -Judge Jerry Black reached here to-day, as bluff and liearty as ever. The Judge expres sed hi 3 opinion quite fully tc the newspapers in New York and Phila delphia on his return from Europe, tiarfickt is his personal friend, but he is yeti-hot for Hancock. He visited the Democratic headquarters and told them everything was going all right. The Judge will probably make some speeches for Hancock be fore the camgaign is over.—Tele graph & Messenger’. Sonic of the Colquiltites have suggested that the anti-Colquitt sen timents of this paper be suppressed. same spirit of bulldozing at the invention seems to still continue in the votaries of the “hero of Olustee.” .We give nothing but facts, but the tyiith hurts some times.

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. , t —-— : .— 7i . The. trade issue of the Savannah News, is before us. It is a mammoth sheet, replete with interesting reading ’natter, with a review of the Savan nah market. The edition bespeaks energy and go-U-headativness „on the part of the, publisher, and is an hon or to the city in which it is published. Mr. R. 11. Williams., of Bridgton, C. S., who recently visited Savan nah on business, has mysteriously disappeared, and fears are entertain ed that he has been foully dealt with. He was last veeu cn Monday, last. He had on hip person s2eo which he drew from Jackson & Co j Half of Scotland is owned by seventy persons. -«►• The number of emigrants arriving at Castle Garden, New York, during the month of August was 0,000. 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 News. 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. iITTa VfcCEf ABLE grS* A PURELY VEGETABLE REMEDY rw m 4 : M - For Internal and External Use, 11 —g an. jf ■ _ ~ r 'Yy % .3 ?.
