Wabwington, June 13. —The president appointed Frank Gordon, of Georgia, son of General John B, Gordon, to be principal clerk of the surveys of the general land office. Mr. Gordon is a young lawyer, of Atlanta, and is a ton of ex-Senator Gordon. He succeeds Oscar Hin richs, removed. Whenever a Georgia Bond is put on the market, our Democratic fritnds cry out 'Great irthe Credit of Georgia.” They c'aiiu that Georgia pays ali of her obligations wbenevar they are dn > knowingtheir caim to be utterly false. Georgia has not only lepodiated keel obligation; > in the hand* of purchasers, but she denies the parties who have pa d value for her bonds the Oght to take the judgment of her own courts an the validity 01 those bonds. So in tue bond business the State ofG.wgia acts not onlv the role of the thief and r< bbe »but also of the oowa»d. The man who claims that Georgia meets all ter legal obligationsis simply a liar. ‘ The lying carpet-bagger who wrote the above must hove been in part nership with Hanry Clews, R. B.

Macon, (ia„ June 13.—Out on Fourth street resides l oin Jones, a negro man who is fifty-five years old. Sometime ago curious white spots began to appear on his hands. His friends thought that he had contract ed some amknown ditease, and suggested to him to call on a physi cian. Tim Jones refused to do, say ing that the s|m4s him no pain. About a weok ago Jones’ arm be- i gan to turn white, and soon after, 1 Targe white spots appeared all over his body. His friends again suggest ed to him to call in a physician, but he indignantly refused, saying that freedom had coeae and the Lord intended to Utrn all the negroes white. Jones’ strange whiteness became known to the negroes in the city, and many of them at once accepted his explanation of it. They were highly elated, believing, as one old aunty expressed it. “Hat de Lord done’ termined to make white Jo’ke outen de niggers w Their view of the mat ter has bees strengthened by the appearance of more white spots on Jones ard his continued refusal to have a physician visit him. Mr. Of-car Redlfoh, who conversed with the while negro to-day sa\a that there is do doubt about lie man’s turning while, and that to him the thing is unaovountable. There is no appearsaoe of disease, and the negro. While the middle age is strong •nd beaUfay, Qthsra who ha.e seen tbe ®a® are anxious for some physi cian to examine the freak of nature presented by the case. In the mean- Ueas the tamainder of the Mat-on ne groes maintain their usual color. Fraas th* Room. I have token Swift’s Specific for Wood poison coni r&cted ala medical yellege at a dissection, while I was a medical student.
