WHAT Is MAHoNEISM 1.-The
man with democratic tfiinities aud
proclivities who is sitting on the
staked and ridered fence of indepen-
dence and sighing for combination
troupe a la Malone, had better step
down. Mahoreism in Georgia
means a rtturo to the days of recon
struction. 1t is to take the roiEs of
the government from the intelligent
white men of the country and put
them into tho hands of the rspubli>
cans, which means the negrO-Doth
ing more, nothing less. Even in
Virginia Malone has at last shown
bis colors. He confesses that
though it was his intention to vote
with the republicans from the first,
he concealed that fact for the reason
that he would have failed to carry
with him any following. Now that
he has carried his point. he shows
his hand. lie decla'es IS rs his in
tention to participate in the repub~
lican national convention. in 1884
And this is the true inwardness OF
Mahoneism. He has learned his
lesson we'll. Base and deceitful to
carry his point is the tirst-a fine
type of republican politics. No
wonder that the Combination
troupe are so repugnant to organ
lied democracy, The independent
element is on the same footing and
they will find when too late, that the
republicans will only use them as
long as it is to their interest and then
give them the grand bounce they de
serve Columbus Enquirer.

the wedding without thought OF
impending sorrow. Gifts were ar

While the bride was admiring a

a threatened interference at the
wedding by another woman, who

Norris is lying in a critical condi~
ton, and fears Of her recovering are
entertained. The great indignation
prevails, as the fugitive, up to this
time, held a high place in public es
