The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1881-07-07

QUITE a sensation was created in
Atlanta, Georgia, the other day. A
few days ago the following appeared
in the Chicago Tribune, telegraphed
by the Atlanta correspondent Of
that paper:
"One of the most clear-headed
men in the state gives it as his
opinion that Gordon, having robbed
Georgia of all that he could, is now
organizing a company for the pur-
pose of foraging upon Alabama and
robbing the people of that state"
The Gordon referred to in the
above is ex-senator Gordon, who
has lately been elected president OF
new railroad enterprise. Upon
the appearance of the paper contain
ing the Objectionable matter, Mr.
Hugh FL. Gordon, son of the ex-
senator, called upon Mr.. S. w. Pos.
tell, correspondent of the Tribune
and demanded a retraction of the
offensive language. The latter
apologized, and, at Gordon's dicta-
ton, wrote the following:
Mr.. Hugh II. Gordon:
Dear Sig-Having learned that
you feel aggrieved at certain re-
marks in a letter recently written by
myself to the Chicago Tribune, in
which serious reflections were made
upon your father, Gen. Gordon, !
take pleasure in disclaiming any in
tention to do him injustice in this
letter and regret having published
the same. Very respectfully,
S. W. POsTELL.
Mr.. Hugh Gordon is the eldest son
of Gen. Gordon, and the gentleman
of high character referred to in the
card is w. A. Huff, ex-mayor OF
Macon, and one of the most promi-
nent men in Georgia. A dispatch
to the New Orleans Democrat, dated
the 26th, says:
Yesterday, pending the trouble,
Wnen everybody thought that they
certainly saw blood upon the moon,
Mrs. Gen. Gordon sent the following
eloquent dispatch to Hugh Gordon
from New York: My son, keep
cool do nothing rash, but resent
the insult to your father at all haz-
ards. Your mother Postell is pre-
pairing a card, in which he will deny
that Gordon dictated the letter OF
retraction, and assert that Huff as
sumes full responsibility for the
statement objected to by Gordon.
Meantime the sensation is the one
theme at the hotels, ON the streets,
everywhere, and may yet end in a
cowhiding, a duel, or go-as-you-
please pistol fight on the street"

THE miscarriage Of the govern
mont, the other day, in the Land
Lsague trials at Dublin, multiplies
the difficulty Of dealing with the
Irish question. The complexion of
the jury was fair reflection of the
public sentiment. The ten juTors
who were for acquittsl chose rather
to represent the almost universal
sentiment OF Ireland than to give
hssd 10 the emphatic instructions of
Judgs Fitzgerald who, In effect,
told them to bring In q verdict Of
guilty. What will the government
do about IL? Over one hundred
yssrs ago Edmund Burke, in . fine
burst Of indignation, said to Lord
North, and through him to
George Ill, that he could not
bring In . bill Of Indictment against
= whole people. He was speaking
of the discontent then prevailing
10 the colonies and which resulted
IL the American Revolution. The
remark holds good as to Ireland to.

Near Paris . peasant girl was de-
serted by her lover. who had prom.
ised to marry her. Some time af-
terward he called and found her
washing clothes In the garden near
. we'll. They had been chatting
while, when suddenly the girl, as
II by accident, dropped cloth into
the we'll, and exhibited great grief
over the loss of 1t. Her companion
volunteered to lean over In the
we'll and fish the garment out; but
while he was so engaged, the girl
caught him by the legs and threw
him in. In reply to his cries. she
told him il he would promise to
marry her she would pull him out.
He promised, but no sooner was he
out than he brought suit against
her for trying to murder him.
Then at last he withdrew it and
married her.
