The New York Worlds Washington
special says: "It appears that, under
instructions from ex-Secretary Blaine,
through a member of Congress devoted
to his interests, the Public Printer has
been induced to distribute the type of
the official documents laid before the
House Committee of Foreign Affairs,
together with all the testimony showing
the unquestionable completely of Blaine
with the Landreau claims on Chill and
Peru, and that he was induced to do
this not much more than a fort
night before the election in Maine,
the express and obvious purpose
of the transaction being to stop the
circulation among the voters in Maine of
the facts and the evidence which go to
show that Blaine used his official posi-
ton as Secretary of State to serve not
only his political but his personal and
pecuniary objects. As the documents
and the evidence in question are part of
the current history of the times, this at
tempt to suppress them in the interest of
a reckless and discredited political specu-
lator will not only inevitably attract the
serious attention of the next House, but
provoke inquiry from the Executive,
and it will probably lead to the republi
cation of the whole story in all its de-
tails under the sanction of the Depart.
ment of State"

The death of Rev. Edward Bouverie,
Pusey, ID, late Regius Professor of He
brew at Oxford, and canon of
Christ Church, which is an
nOunced this morning, removes
from earth one of the most dis
tinguished divines of this century. DR..
Pussy made his great reputation in the
movement known as the "tractarian
movement" in the second quarter of the
present century. This movement
was traceable to the action of the reform
ministers on the suppression of the
Irish sees, and derived its name from
the fact that the ideas of its promoters
were made public through pamphlets
emitted "Tracts for the Times" Its OBJ
iect was to ascertain what was true and
what was false in the dogmas and cere-
monials of the Christian Church, and
it led to the establishment of what is
known in the Church of England, as
well as the Episcopal Church of
this country, as "ritualism'.
In this movement DR.. Pussy was as.
sisted by Cardinal J. II. New
man, then Vicar of the Church of
England, Mr.. Froude, the popular his
torian, and several English clergymen.
The opposition was so great to these
gentlemen that Rev, Mr.. Newman was
driven into the Church of Rome, and Dr.
Pussy himself was, in 1S43, suspended
from preaching for three years. This
opposition still continues; but, never
theless, the ritualistic movement is still
progressing, and has many ardent fol-
lowers both in America and Europe.

Ocean steamship navigation during
the summer season has achieved some
noteworthy triumphs in the fast trips of
the Alaska and some of the Cunard
steamers. But next year New York
firm proposes to establish line of huge
steamships that will make the distance
from that port to Liverpool in five and
one half days. Three of the vessels are
expected to run as a weekly line, eleven
days beng consumed in round trip and
nine days in port. Their dimensions will
be: Length $50 feet, greatest breadth 66
feet-58 feet at low water line, depth Al
feet, draught of water % feet when
loaded. With double propellers and en-
gines with a total of 10, 900 horse power,
speed of twenty miles per hour is ex-
pected to be developed Should this
line prove a success, the trip across the
Atlantic will be reduced almost to a
casual and pleasant excursion. The
breadth of the vessel will keep them
steady in all weathers except the rough

Let All Turn Ont.

The Democracy of this county viii
meet tonight at eight o'clock for the
purpose of nominating three Representa-
tives to the General Assembly and Sc
lecting delegates to attend the conven-
ton to nominate the Senator for the
First district. The Legislature of which
these nominees Will in all probability be
members, will have before it many i'm
portant matters-among them the cleo
ton of a United States Senator to fill
the place of the lamented Hill; the cleo
ton of several Judges of the Su-
perior Courts of the State, in
Guiding that of this, the East
ern Circuit; the duty of redistricting
the State, by reason of the increase of
Representatives in Congress, and the
question of the lease of the Western and
Atlantic Railroad.
1t will require able and patriotic men
to manage such important matters, and
Chatham county should send delega-
ton of her best and purest citizens.
We also have matters of local interest
which may require the care of our Rep.
resentatives, one of which is our new
city registration law. This law has not
yet been tested, but it is rumored that
movement will be made in the
next General Assembly to have il
repealed. The law was prepared with
great care. and is for the purpose Of
protecting the ballot, or, in other words
affording an opportunity for a ''fret
ballot and fair count" and thus stop al
future complaints about unfair city cleo
tons.
This county, like many. other ant
larger communities, is said to be gov
erned by a ring, or several of them. L
this is so it is the fault of the rank and
file of the Democratic party. who sub
NIT to it. There is certainly an oppor
tunity afforded at every primary meeting
| for them to speak out. Ample notlce L
given of these meetings, and no gagginl
has ever been attempted that we know
of. Free speech and free vote has al
ways prevailed.
If Democrats stay away they have NJ
right to complain if nominations do no
suit them. If they attend the meeting
and sit supinely by while resolution
fixing things" are passed, then they arr
as much to blame as those who make VI
the slate. To prevent all caviling here
after let every Democrat attend oul
primaries and take part in their delibera
tons, so that whatever is done will NEE
the assent of the whole party.

The Egyptian collapse is certain to
have an immediate effect on the Ameri-

of food and of cotton which few days

weeks, certainly past the period, Octo.

crops go into the freshly inundated soil.
1t is now certain that Egypt will be in
complete peace before the inundatiOn is

The citizen of Savannah who owns a
plot of ground and puts building on it
and rents it to his fellowmen for what it
is worth is a public benefactor, and puts
money in his purse besides. Notwith-
standing the large number of dwelling
houses which have been erected during
the past few years, the demand largely
exceeds the supply. Business of
one kind or another brings hun
dreds of people into the city who
are compelled to live in a most I'M
satisfactory way, by boarding or in
smaller tenements than they require,
because they are unable to find the
accommodations they desire and are
willing to pay for. They all with one
accord comment on the high rates of
rent, but begin to understand before they
have been here long why they are so
high, and are soon willing to pay what
ever is charged provided they can obtain
what they want. This steady crowding
indicates the growth and prosperity of
the city, but it is unfortunate for several
reasons that accommodations are still so
limited, and that we are unable to pro-
vide for all who come in accordance with
their tastes and means.
