Georgia. The Governor and Lnla are !
both phenomenal and he might go I

The Baltimore Sun publishes a
special to the effect that an alliance has
been formed between the Baltimore &

They have consolidated for a period of

B. D. Locke, United States marshal
for the southern district of Georgia,
was in Washington a few days ago and
represented the South as enthusiastic f
and solid for Cleveland and Hendricks,

He was celebrating, he said, the nomination

President Arthur expresses the j

the open seas talked about, remains
among the mysteries.
The ISfew York Sun suggests that
the maxim which Mr. Blaine laid
down for the Government of his rela-1

be slightly improved to fit his case;
" tfWhere: avoidance would have * been

Professob Andrew D. White, president
of Cornell University and a delegate
to the Republican National Convention,
says: "I am a Republican,

is the best piece of timber to-aay in rne

At tfoe meeting of the Cabinet on
Friday it was decided to take prompt
and vigorous measures to prevent the
introduction of cholera into the United
States. The State and Treasury departments
will act in conjunction in
enforcing the regulations which are to
be prepared. Vessels of the revenue
marine service will establish a cordon
along the coast to prevent the landing
of all vessels from foreign ports which
do not possess clean bills of health. j

The Fourteenth Assembly District I
Committee of the Tammany Hall
Democracy recently passed a resolu-;
tion strongly endorsing the Democi-afcic
nominees, and "denouncing as
_ traitors and unfit for association with
honest Democrats, any persons, who
profes6icg to be such, fail in hearty
and generous support of the party
nominees." The resolutions have the
right ring about theia, and it is gratifying
to all good Democrat to know
that Boss Kelly does not control aU ?f
the Tammany votes.

A writer of some note commentingon
the various letters of acceptance by
the different candidates for the Presidency,
has this to say about the letters
of Tilden in 187G and Garfield in 18S0:
Mr. Ti Men's letter in 1876 was the
State paper ot* the day. It did more
than any platform of his party or vote
of the Convention which nominated
him lo bring him close to the patriotic
sentiment of the people. It won him
votes everywhere. It stamped him as
the purest and greatest man in his
party. It revived patriotic memories
and reminded people of the days when
statesmen were such by their own
abilities and characters and the puritv
and unsclfihness of their lives. That
letter elected Mr. Tilden, or rather
secured liim the votes to do it had they
been honestly counted and returned.
The Garfiekl letter of four years ago
also ran^s as a great paper, and it undoubtedly
was. Had' Mr. Garfield
lived to put in force the principles he
there so ably gave voice to, his-administration
might have been regarded a9
one of the most perfect in American
history.
coi.onel Youmaxs iri seconding the
nomination of Senator Bayard in the
Chicago Convention, said of Mr.
Blaine:
The chosen chief of the opposite party,
a party whose success every good
Democrat believes to be inimical to
constitutional liberty, and daily, hourly,
ingrafting cancerous sores on the
heart of American freedom, is not to
be underrated. Whatever mav be his
t&uits or ms vices or ms weatinessus,
he is a man of intellect, fertile, subtle
and sagacious. By nature endowed,
by learning taught; with power to
move the passions and the prejudices
of men; with that massive strength
aud headlong weight of vehemence,
that fiber of muscle, both of frame aud
mind, which is born to govern human
kind; the man who, on the great arena
of the floor of the Federal Congress,
competed fairly with such intellectual
lights as Roscoe Conkling, Benjamin
Hill and Proctor Knott?whatever he
mav be. in intellect, in Dower, in pop
ula'r enthusiasm, in the strength of his
body, he is a foemau worthy of oar
very best steel. Even if it be true
what those of the Republican party,
of its higher and its better element's,
who are enabled to break this man's
supremacy on account of his personal
dishonor, and have refused to follow
his lead and revolt from his leadership
?if it be true, as tbey allege, that he
is buoyant by putrefaction, he is buoyant
still. He is the concentrated
essence of fraud: his spirit is imbued
with the thirst for power; in its corrupt
thirst for spoils, in its reckless
scorn of the lights and feelings of all
who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
Blaine is the exponent of his party.
This man's ascendency is more dangerous
to constitutional liberty; this
man's planer sits more darkly" in the
house of American liberty than has
any man's siuce Thaddeus Stevens
wrote upon the flag of the Republican
partv that it know no such word as
truth; debauching-the tone and vigor
of his manhood by the infamous defense
and the infamous avowal of the
infamous truth that the Republican
party camped outside of the Constitution*
Whatever may be said of Blaine,
he towers above his whole*party like
Saul, the son of Kish, or Turness
among the Rutulian chiefs. He i^ fheir
emperor, their chief .and their pi. osopher.
OUR CHOICE FOB COXGBESS.
It is said that Fairfield's support in
the Congressional contest is claimed in
other quarters as soon as Col. Gaillard
is out of the race. It may as well be
understood that Fairfield does not desire
and does not expect Col. Gaillard
to be "out of the race." Without any
disparagement of the distinguished
merits of the other candidates, Fairfield
belieyes that Coi. Gaillard is the
most available candidate, the one giosj;
deserving a nomination and election,

With private and public record that
challenges the closest scrutiny, and with
au experience of four years in the
House, and four more in the Senate,
during which time he was most prominent
|ii furthering wise legislation, and
.defeating impracticable measures, in
manifesting an independence that com
pel'.ed respect, and an eloquence of
speech and sincerity of purpose that
carried conviction, he has undergone a
thorough coursc of training for a broader
sphere of action. Fairfield is proud
of him,, and feels assured that in presenting
him, she is [performing a service
to the district. ?1^ confidently
hopes that he will come ''out off the

Both po/itic$] parties l^aye uos^ ?h;3<r
Presidential tickets in the field, &ud
between this and November the mass
of voters must decide which of the two
is deserving of support. The representative
conventions have by their
respective nominations made the personel
of the ^ndidates, the real and
dominant issne in the campaign, and
upon the outcome of that issue must
largely depend the result^of the November
ejesijou.
The corrupt elera^st of the Republican
party obtained control of the
nominating convention, and forced
upon the party and the people a corrupt
and dangerous man for the Presidency,
and a slanderer of good people
aud & murderer of good English iof
the second highest official position in
the government. Upon the other hand,
the Democrats have at least for once
offered to the nation and its voters a j
pair of candidates ot eminent ability, 1
and of pure, lofty and unimpeachable |
character.
Grover Cleveland, as the Reform
Governor of the Empire State, 'has ]
demonstrated to the country at large
that he is the possessor of execntive
ability of no mean Qrdei\ ant] that his
character for honesty and impartially.
in the discharge of o&cial dnty is bevnnd
vpnroach and void suspicion. The
im Mr. Cleveland's support upon |
y
thn tinknt nasscd unscathed thronsrli i
the political fires of '7G, is proof conclusive
that, with personal character
as the great issue, he will add strength,
dignity and ability to the ticket.
In addition to this very excellent
ticket, the Democracy enters the campaign
advocating administrative and
tarifF reform, while unon the other
side the records will show that the
incuinbcnts honestly favor neither.
The Republican party has been continuously
in power for'nearly a quarter
of a century, and as a logical consequence
every branch of the Federal
Government is now steeped in corruption.
The fair and bald statement of
the respective positions of the two
great parties betore the country argueseloquently
and forcibly enough for a
change ot administration Assuming
that the "outs" arc'cqnally as corrupt
as the "ins", the country would all the
same reap benefits from the proposed
change?rival political parties with
fair opportunities would expose the
frauds and bad practices of each other
and the stalls of the Federal Government
would be kept clean by the
waters of party strife and party corar?pHfir>n.

occupies a still more impregnable position
before the voters of the country.
Our party masses are beyond question
purer and better, and would naturally
incline to'an improvement in the governmental
administration. The jSfew
York Herald says:
The Democrats have nominated good
men upon a good platform. It deserves
the support of all honest citizens,
regardless of old party affiliations.
The men who have seized control
of the Republican organization are
not true Republicans. They would be

Monticello, July 16.?The farmers
have been patiently waiting for the
past month until the clouds rolled by
before they began to kill grass. The
cotton fields look more like hay meadows
than the domains of the fltvcy
king. I have heard that one of our
citizens was so badly in the grass that
he had hoisted the white flag over his
fields iu token of submission to General

enterprising individual was endeavoring
to "make a corner" on cow-bells,
as he thought it would be necessary to
bell the laborers when they were put
to work. Your correspondent does
not vouch for the truth of the above,
as he only heard them as rumors. One
thing, however, is beyond disputefarmers
will have a hard row to hoe
for some time to come. Cotton on
clay land looks well, but the gray,
sandy soils have had too much rain.
Corn on uplands is looking well. The
farmers have not been so unfortunate
in this section with their grain, as in
other parts of the State. A great deal
was ieic in me neia, rant ? near 01 uiue
of it sprouting.
The quarterly meeting of this district
began here on Friday. The first
da. was set apart as Children's Day.
The Rev. A. Coke Smith, Presiding
Elder, aud Dr. Darby, of Columbia,
were invited to deliver addresses.
Both of these gentlemen have won for
themselves a reputation for eloquence,
and on this occasion thcv ably sustained
that reputation. Mr. Smith selected
as a subject appropriate to the occasion,
''The Centenary of American
Methodism." He gave a very interesting
account of the origin of Methodism
in England and the transplanting
of it to America. He told how from a
little plant, at first tended by "a woman
and a one-eyed man," it had in
this the centennial year of its growth
developed into a mighty tree whose
roots permeated the soil of this fair
land throughout its ieugth and breadth,
and beneath whose broad branches the
weary sinner finds a holy resting place
from the toils and cares'of life. The
reverend gentleman thoroughly understands
the art of decorating his discourses
with the flowers of rhetoric,
not to the extent of concealing his reasoning,
but only to render his deductions
more forcible, and at the same
time more agreeable to his audience.
Dr. Barbv, of the Colnmbia Female
College, followed "Mr, Smith, and
showed how important education is to
a thorough understanding Oi the lessons
taught by religion. The Rev.
J. K. McCain, of this circuit, then
addressed himself to the "old folks,"
and impressed upon them the neces
6"'o ??????? v.u?j
children by supplementing the work
of the pastor' and Sunday School
tcacher with good home training.
After the address the assembly adjourned
to the grove in front of the
church, where an elegant dinner had
been prepared and which every one
enjoyed. Services were appointed for
Saturday morning and a large crowd
was in attendance. Mr. Smith eonducted
the services. In the afternoon
the quarterly- conference'met and disposed
of all'business on hand. Interesting
reports were made by the different
superintendents of Snudav
Schools. The pastor made his report
of worjf done on his circuit and from
the different woman's missionary societies!
"On Saturday night Mr. Smith
addressed the Woman's Missionary
Society, and a large subscription was
made for foreign missions.
On Sunday two sermons were
preached?by Mr. Smith in the morning
and by Dr. Darby in the afternoon.
The speakers had an audience in sympathy
with them, and from sweet religion
made a rhapsody of words which
stole o'er the sense like the sweet south
wind over a bank of viflicfcs. The
occasion was one which will be long
remembered by many who were present
with that plcas'ure which is felt
when the chords of that mysterious
instrument-r-the soul?are touched by j
a master hand. a. t.

A Physician's Testimony.
I was called to see Mr. John Pearson,
bVho was confined to his bed with what appeared
to consumption of the worst form.
tYsallofhis family had died with that
lread disease (except his half brother) his
ieath was regarded as certain and soon,
ifter exhausting all the remedies, I finally
is a last resort sent for a bottle of Brewer's
Lung Restorer, and it acted like magic.
He continued the use of it for some time
md lias been fully restored to health. So
far as I could discover, he had cousump;ion,
and Brewer's Lung Restorer saved

MR. JOHN PEARSON'S STATEMENT.
In the spring of 18821 was attacked with
i very bad cough, which continued to
?row worse until fall, when I got so weak
that I could not get about. I tried a great
many kinds of medicine but continued to
?ro\v worse. I was notified that I had
consumption and would probably die. Dr.
Holloway finally told me to trv Brewer's
Lung Restorer. They sent to Ward's Store
md got a bottle and I commenced taking
it right away. After taking two or three
loses, I began to improve, and by the time
I had used up one bottle I was able to get
an my feet again. I am now in excellent
T om thftt flip. T.imrr Tip
storer saved my life and my neighbors are

Remedy ever made in my opinion. Dr.

manufacturers and tell them of the wonderful
cure it made in my case.
Statement of ifr. Benj. F. Hearndon.
Early in November, -1881, while sewing
on the machine, siy wife was taken with a
severe pirn in her side, which was soon
followed by hemorrhages from her lungs
and a severe cough. Fever commenced,
she could neither eat nor sleep, and in a few
weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton.
V ? attending physician told me that he
caought one of ner lungs was entirely gone.
she could not retain tne most aeiicarc
nourishment on her stomach. I then
agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family physician,
to call Dr. Holloway in consultation.
They made a final examination of the
patient and pronounced the case hopeless.
Dr. Holloway then suggested the Brewer's
Lung Restorer as a last resort I sent for a
bottle and gave her a dose. I found that
she could retain it on her stomach and
after about the third dose, I began to
notice some improvement in her condition.
I continued the medicine regularly, and by
the time she had taken two bottles, she
was able to walk about the house. She is
now in better health than she has enjoyed
fr\y Cdvonl TOiliSi T K>1iVvp that T.imc
Restorer saved her life. We have a family
of six children, some of them grown."
Mr. Herndon's postofflce is Yatesville,
Upson county, 6a. lie is a thoroughly
reliable man in every particular.

We ha\ve seen,'-frith pleasure; that Edwjn
F. Scott, Esq., of our City,'Is aboutto pubish
his book, which he has appropriately
:alled "Random Recollections of a Long
Life." Mr. Scott did us the honor to
submit, at different times, his manuscript
? our perusal, and while some of us did
lot read all the manuscript, it affords us
?reat pleasure to say that we have read
;nough of the ."Recollections" to say that
I is noi oniy interesting in
ive, filled as it'is with local history and
mecdotes, but will be really valuable' 'in
preserving facts pf a public nature which
should b'6 preserved, and which will soon
>therwjse pass away and be forgotten.
iVhen we recall the xact that this js the
vork of a man over eighty years of age,
xp. think it a verv remarkable production.
