The sad death of Reverdy Johnson, the
statesman and jurist, will occasion deep and
general regret. Added TO his great abilities
as a publicist were social qualities which
endeared him TO all with whom he came in
contact A democrat of the old school, but
the antitype of many of his political brethren
IN The south, he secured the respect and es-
TEEN OF both parties, and after the rebellion
no one did more than he in endeavoring to
restore fraternal relations between the north
and the south. He was always welcome
guest at the Capitol, and never entered the
hall OF the House OF Representatives or the
Senate chamber without receiving the warm
greetings of numerous friends and admirers
Col. Forney in late letter from London
paid graceful and afectionate tribute To
Mr.. johnson, who was in England at the
time, alluding especially TO the attention he
continually received from distinguished
Englishmen, and the pride felt in him by
Americans abroad. In his death not alone
Maryland, but the entire country Is the

In view OF the fact that the crop of funny
men in the House has been materially in
creased OF late, the Baltimore American
thinks the danger is that this Overplus of
humOr may degenerate into personalities
and bufioOnry. The Philadelphia Press is OF
the opinion that the halls of Congress are
not intended for the use of weak minded
creatures who desire to appear as end

this fact isrealized by would be funny mem

Tho Farorite Magnolia Route.

What Italy and Southern Franco are to
Europe the peninsula of Florida is to
the United States, and the number of
tourists, lnva!ids and pleasure-seekers
who visit that perennial land of howers is
annually on the increase. Tourists leav-
ing Minnesota and the west and north
west for Florida will have no difficulty
In reaching Louisville, Kentucky, from
which point to Atlanta, Georgia, there
is plain sailing From Atlanta, however,
the great Magnolia route is preferable,
because it takes in the beautiful cities OF
Augusta, Savannah and Others, and
because it has better accommodations,
surer connections, reaches more points OF
interest, passes through grandcr scenery,
and carries passengers safer and quicker
than any other railroad in the South.
This is the only route running double
daily trains from Atlanta to Jacksonville,
Florida, and making close connections,
and afiording the traveller the pleasure
of making the entire trip by day-a supe-
rior advantage long sought for. After
leaving Atlanta, the Chicago of the
South, the passenger Will pass through
Augusta and Savannah; two of the most
beautiful cities found in the south. The
schedules are SO arranged that the trav-
eler can arrive at both places by day and
depart by day, at will. The hotel
accommodations of these cities are equal
to any in the country, and afford the
most comfortable and convenient resting
places for inyalids who wish, to break
