The Maine Election ,Tho Principal Topic.—Bloody Duel in Birming ham.—Collision on The Hudson Central. Since Reed’s greet victory in Maine he is on top of the brush pile. The following telegram was sent out from 'Washington last night: Speaker Reed will come back in a blaze of glory which will need no fireworks or brass bands. His friends will rally around him at his room in the Shoreham and make him very welcome. Naturally enough he will find more friends on his return than he had when he left for .Maine, for his popularity here has increased with the successive increases in his majority. His glittering victory has dazzled the eyes of the politicians, coming as it did, so unexpectedly and for the time being, at least Speaker Reed is the foremost man in his party. In the estimation of Washington, where nothing succeeds like success. Speaker Reed’s politi cal fortunes, which might have been ruined if he had drawn a blank, are better than ever now, that he has drawn a grand prize, and the crowd is quick to recognize the fact. A bloody duel occurred at Birm ingham yesterday afternoon between Thomas 11. Bennett, the warden of the city prison, and William Harde man, a locomotive engineer, in a sa loon on First avenue. Bennett was killed and Hardeman wounded. It seems that an old feud in which a disreputable woman named Fannie Corbet figured, was at the bottom of the difficulty. The men had quar reled frequently and a conflict was constantly expected. Both were cool, fearless and brave as lions. ' They went heavily armed and associ l at cd much with gamblers and saloon men. When they met yesterday the quarrel! was renewed, and Bennett proposed that they fight it out. Waiting Io |llar<le:nm to arm him self, both men began firing almost simultaneously, emptying their pis tols before the shooting ceased. Bennett was shot four times, one ball penetrating the heart, producing in stant death. Hardeman was shot in the arm, but not badly. Hardeman immediately gave him self up to Sheriff Smith, in whose custody he now is. He is net the least troubled, saying he acted in self-defense and that Bennett had I < been dogging him a long time. Two passenger trains collided on the Central Hudson railroad last , night near Troy, N. Y., caused by a 1 misplaced switch. Strange to say no one was hurt. The switchman causing the troub le was a new hand who had taken the place of a striker on the Troy Union road. Gov. Eagle yesterday issued a proclamation ordering a special elec ' tion in the Second Arkansas district to fill the vacancy caused by the un seating of Congressman Brecken ridge. The candidates are Major Breckenridge and I. C. Langley, Union Labor. The vote of the dis trict at the recent election was: dem ocratic, 4,076; fusion, 6,012. Kentucky's Constitutional Con vention was called to order by Gov. Buckner at noon yesterday at Frank fort, and temporary organization was affected with Hon. George Washing ton, of Newport, Ky., as chairman. Tft- swearing in of delegates was then taken up and completed, except as to the contest in Washington county, which will be taken up to day. There were eight or ten prominent cotton buyers at the New York Cot ton Exchange yesterday. They had just arrived from Liverpool. Their main mission is to the South, to look over the cotton crop prospects and to make i-ontracts for c tton for fu ture del < iy. The L ai-ton. (Me.)

A special from Athens says: Miss Annie Solimons, a lady about forty years of age, attempted suicide Sun day at her home near Lexington, by shooting herself with a pistol. She is said to be of weak mind and gives no reason for the rash act. Kit Bustian, the negro rapist, who is now in jail at Newnan, will be taken to the State penitentiary to save his life. The people of Coweta connty were so much incensed at the commutation to life imprisonment granted by the governor, that they threaten to lynch Bustian. The latest news from Screven coun ty gives the proceedings of a county mass-meeting held at Oliver on Sat urday. Norwood was endorsed for the senate. Gordon was declared not in sympathy with the Alliance and his course was condemned. A special from Atlanta says:—A bigamist in bard luck. That’s J. F. Hawley, a man whose four years’sen tence for the crime was up to day. He was at liberty the fractional part of a minute only, whan he was ar rested by a South Carolina sheriff upon the same charge. He is also wanted in Nortn Carolina for biga my. The man’s career is decidedlj out of the usual run. ’Gordon made a fine speech nt Gainsville yesterday. His audience was quite enthusiastic. At the clos ing of the speech the following res olution was unanimously adopted:— , “Be it resolved byhis mass meet- ( ing, that oqr senators and represon atives in the next legislature be re quested to cast their votes for Gen. , John B.

L.

Special to The I’ost, j Macon, Ga., Sept. 10. —A probably fatal shooting affray occurred at the t hook and ladder house yesterday morning, between Mr. Ben Bowers of . that company and Mr. John Vaughn ' of No. 2 fire company. Five shots were fired from a pis tol in the hands of Mr. Vaughn, all 1 taking effect in the body of Mr. 1 Bowers.

Better Grade of Goods Than Usual. “I have purchased a larger stock of goods this season than ever be fore.” That is what all the enterprising merchants of Brunswick say, when ' asked about the outlook for the com ing season. | When the goods that have been recently purchased by our wide awake merchants, are all in, the t stores of Brunswick will compare favorably with those of Atlanta,-Ma < in and Savannah, The time has come when the peo ple demand a better class of goods, ( than that which satisfied them sev eral years ago and the merchants are glad of it. It is now a matter of ’ pride with them to see who can show the best stock and otler the best in ducements to intending purchasers. Brunswick’s merchants are fully abreast of the times, and it is not nec- ' essary for our citizens to go else where to buy their goods, any and ’• everything needed can be had right here at home. ( There will be a lively competition here in some lines, especially* in < clothing and furnishing goods, but ‘competition is the life of trade,” and the merchant who has induce- I ments to offer need not fear getting left. Ihe stocks kept by the grocery- * men cannot be surpassed anywhere in the state. Brunswick has her share of grocery stores too, but every one seems to be making money. , Rah for Brunswick’s merchants! PERSONAL MENTION < Mr. J. M. Jones, of Atlanta, is at the Ocean hotel. I Mr. H.
