Why Gordon Resigned.

In reference to the resignation of Senator
Gordon, the following statement which is un-
derstood to come from Alexander III. Stephens,
is of Importance: "Mr. Gordon had reached
that point where he stood in slippery places.
brilliant war record and what had passed
for creditable civil career, have already been
smirched by certain business complications in
which prominently figured the penitentiary
contracts, which, it will be remembered,
brought about the cold-blooded murder of Col.
AllSton by Cox, who was sent to the peniten-
tary for life. MIR. Gordon, it is said, stood in
momentary dread of threatened exposure
which would summarily close his public ca
reer, and ring the curtain down in darkness
The growing Independent party in Georgia
was pursuing him and he found it lmpossible
to cover up his tracks Mr.. Gordon was. there
fore, anxious to get out of public life. Mr.
Brown was anxious to get into the United
States Senate-an ambition which has long
haunted him. Gov. Colquitt, who trains with
Messrs Brown and Gordon, saw how he could
serve two friends, and consented to the dicker
IN the hope of cementing such an alliance as
may hereafter help him i'll some designs which
he holds in allegiance. Mr.. Colquitt cannot be-
reelected, for the Independents will run a
strong man against him, most likely Congress-
man FELTON,. a stirring stumper and strong
popular favorite. MIR. Browns appointment
is regarded by him and his friends as giving
him the turn on the election for the term he
ginning March, 1885, and so strengthening the
combination to which Messrs. Colquitt and
Gordon are partles.''

THE Boston Herald in the course of an
article on Maine mines congratulates the
people of Maine on having made a most val
liable discovery this spring. They have, it
says, "found that hole in the ground is
not mine; that man who can dig a
well or blast ledge or do submarine work
is not a miner: that assays are deceptive,
and skilled miners from California pan out
no better than assays. They have found
that money must be put down before any is
taken up, and that the business upon which
they have entered is one which may yield
dazzling returns to few, but for the many
only promises the same rewards as any 9TH
er enterprise soberly entered upon, Judi
cously prosecuted and patiently carried
through to its conclusion. In short, that
mining is business and not fun-business
which requires capital, experience and tiue
before results are reached. This was not
known last year. Then it was thought start
ing new company meant sudden wealth to
all fortunate enough to be interested The
discovery that this was mistake is fortu-
nate one for Maine"

Much fun is made of the Englshman who
crosses the Atlantic, passes few weeks in
this country, chiefly in railroad cars, and
goes home and gives at great length an ac.
count OF America. One of our own coun-
trymen, Mr.. E. W. Stoughton, has done a
like ridiculous thing. He contributes to
the North American Review paper entitled
Popular Fallacies about Russia in which
he disputes nearly everything that has been
said about that country and assumes to
correct all the travellers who have gone be-
fore him. Mr.. Stoughton has been minister
to Russia and has passed short time at ST..
Petersburg. Therefore he thinks he knows
all about Russia.

didate for Congress" 1t pronounces a
Democratic endorsement of Fogg's nomina-

Democracy of the Second District ''does not

cillor Fogg or ex-Councllor anybody else."
In conclusion it intimates that the election
of MI. Frye is assured by the Greenback
