GOOD NEWS roR THE WINGS.

We yesterday morning received the annexed des-
patches from Georgia. The first comes from the Of
flee of the Augusta Chronicle" under date Of Sasw
day night, at half-pa nine o'clock. II states
"That the Democratic majority in the State is re-
duced one-haf; that there is no doubt of the State
being safe for Taylor and that Messrs. TooMBs and
STEPHENS are elected BY increased majorities."
The next is from the office OF the Macon "Journal
and Messenger" point some three hundred miles
further on the southern line, and is dated hapast
seven O'Clock yesterday morning. 1t says:
Georgia and Florida are redeemed the latter by
large majority, elec,ing Governor, Congressman, and
Legislature.
"The popular vote is close in Georgia. The TAr-
LoR gain in seveniy-one counties is Isl over the vote
for Governor Of last year, when the Democratic ma
lority was 1898. The State is good for TAYLOR in
NOVEMBER by majoritd of two or three thousand"
We also learn that the Democrats have carried the
second Congressional district OF Georgia by about70
votes Their majority at the Congressional election
Of 1916 was 800. and at the Governors election Of
last year 426; so that the Wing gain in the popuor
vote of this contested district is from 800 to $50 votes
The Georgia Delegation in the next Congress will
be equally divided between the Two parties, in the
present Congress, viz:

several important capacities, he was quietly
"gathered TO his Fathers" at good old age.

utions were adopted.

Daguerreotype Discovery.

1t is we'll known that the edge of the
sharpest and most polished lancet, looks
as blunt as the back of case knife, and
as jagged as a saw, in viewing it through
a microscope.-The finest painting thus
viewed becomes rough and uneven. and
is entirely destitute of beauty ofcooring
or outline. lis not so with the photo.
graphic art. A professional gentleman
of this city few days since applied a
microscope 10 daguerreotype miniature,
and to his surprise it became life like
bust" or cast with the natural coloring
ofthe hair, the eyes and the dress, with
the natural expression of countenance.
The bust will appear as of plaster, of
granite, or of Paran marble, according to
the purity ofthe glass set over the picture.
To test this discovery take micro
scope-a watch makers eye glass for in
stance-apply it to the eye, and in a prop
or light, range it at the true focal distance
from the picture, and you have view
that is truly wonderful, 1t may be used
to detect any imperfectons ofthe picture
not perceptible to the naked eye.-Sci
