The attention Of the people Of Geor-
eia Is now being very generally directed
u the fact that the State is to have ten
Representatives in The next Congress,
instead Of nine, as at present, and that
lais additional member is to be elected
l.y the people of the State at large. In
connection with this fact We also notice
that the names Of several gentlemen in
various sections Of the State, save and
except the seabosrd alone, are being
mentioned for The position.
This is a grievous error, for, by all the
rules Of equity and justice the claims Of
this section of Georgia should not be
ignored. The interior already monOpo-
lies al the offices Of the commonwealth,
both State and Federal which do moi
3 e'oug exclu-iyely 10 this Congressional
district, the Governor, President of the
senate, both United States Senators,
Treasurer, and. in short, every
STATE Official, hsiling from up
Ter Georgia We therefore sub
nit it TO the Democratic party, as well
as TO the people, that as q matter Of sim
lie equity this section should furnish
the Cougressmsn-at-L Large, especially as
tais county (Chathsm) pays more money
annually into the State Treasury in the
way Of taxes than does any other county
il the State except one Fulton.
Should the Georgia Democracy accede
Is they can scarcely refuse to do-tO the
Justice Of these views, We can present to
tlciI favorable consideration a number
of gentlemen for the position the peers
81 any In the Union. There is General
Henry r. Jackson, who has already been
10 sntiOned in this connection, and whose
eminent fitness for the position is recog
zed not only throughout the length
a "a breadth of Georgia, but through
out the South. There is General
\ r. LawtOn, who is also we'll and
favOrably known throughout his State
and section as a gentleman, who would
il the Federal Legislature reflect honor
a1d dignity both upon his State and
country. There is also Col. Rufus E.
/ ester, who, as President of the State
S-nate during the last two sessions of
his membership of that body, made a
reputation as parliamentarian, a states
man and a Georgian which proved
him to be man worthy of
any dignity to which his fellow
ctzens might see fit to elevate him.
We might enumerate others from our
section whose fitness and capacity is indis-
pItable. and who would do ample credit
to the Empire State of the South; but
we aIlude to these gentlemen especially
because the mere mention of their names
will, we feel assured, call forth the
hearty concurrence of their fellow Cit.
zsas in all we have claimed for them
We repeat, therefore, that equity and
Justice alike demand that Southern Geor.
ga should be accorded this honor.
Should these demands be acceded to, We
will find no difficulty in supplying a can
didate who will wear the Congressional
mantle with dignity, and who will ac-
quit himself in the Federal Legislature
with honor to himself and credit to his
State.

Speaking of the prices of articles OF
food which are higher now than they
have been for years, the New York Sun
thinks the present status of the business
and social condition of the country IS
gloomy, though not positively alarming,
as business is on a safe foundation. and
the credit system is sounder than in the
past. But, it says, there is one element
of danger, one eyef-pTesent cause Of
depression, one load on business which
il always feels, but most bitterly in times
like these. l: is the load of taxation, and
to it we must look for principal cause
Of the unsatisfactory condition of things
this year. To overill the Treasury
at Washington so that corrupt
rings and greedy schemers may
be satisfied, the business of the
country is made to grosn under
the burden of a complicated and crush
ing system of internal revenue taxation
and tariff whose inequalities are notO.

Regarding the Western labor troubles,
the Boston Advertiser concludes that the
stay-aways are not so perfectly organized
as had been thought, and that there is
comparatively little cooperation between
the great centres. 1t says: "The work
ingmen ooneede that they have had
handsome wages. but they want more.
while the mill owners confess to round
dividends and ample reserves against q
fortnight or month of suspended opera
tlcns. This month will be used for re-
pairs, and if the strike should last much
longer it is not impossible but new works
will be put up away from Pittsburg and
the other centres. This strike has de.
centralizing effect"

The clergymen of San Francisco have
pretty strong views on the Chinese ques-
ton. The Rev. DR.. 6. S, Abbott gave
the people of New York in lecture re-
cei tly some remarkable reasons why the
Acknowledged race should be kept out,
and, at the same time, gave an interest
ing lesson in ethnology, which an ex-
change cOndenses as follows:
"Of the three races, the Characters
| tics of the Caucasian are strong enough
to overcome and erase the signs of the
African, but not of the Mongolian. The
white absorbs tie black after successive
intermarriages. The child of a white
and black is mulatto, the offspring of
a white and a mulatto is a quadroon;
| that of a white and a quadroon is an
| octOroOn, and in the course of several
| generations the traces of negro blood
nearly disappear. In the same way
| Indian blood disappears through inter
marriages with the whites. But taking
the Chinese eve as tne most distinguish
| ing feature DR.. Abbott remarks that it
still appears in children OF the eighth
generation CT intermarriage with the
whites. The Chinese eye. the speaker
continued. IS the most vital of all eyes
on the globe, and the eye is the window
of the soul. The Chinese eye, with four
hundred million pledges of vitality be-
hind it, in contest for the worlds mas
terry, if put on trial with the Caucasian
eye, would be the victor. Don't be afraid
to take off your hat to Chinaman-he
is of the strongest race stock in the
world. Therefore ! hold that we are
justified in all honorable means to pre-
serve ourselves. 1t will tax the white
race te its fullest resources to perpetuate
itsolf in the race for existence.
These views of Dr. Abbott are inter
esting, but they are not altogether cor
rect No matter how many generations
may pass, persons containing negro blood
in their veins always manifest it in some
degree. 1t cannot be eradicated. There
is, however, little likelihood of Ameri-
can women becoming infatuated with
Celestial ApollOs, unless, perhaps, Some
lone Northern spinsters-of whom there
arc not few-might consent to receive
them as liege LORDS. These, if they have
the courage of their convictions, might
be brave enough to cast race prejudices
aside, but the American women in gen
eral will never consent to Chinese, any
more than to African, miscegenation.

GAARET4A's FUTURE-.A well in
formed correspondent, who has access
to the best political sources, writes as
follows on his return from recent visit
TO Paris; The general impression l
find to be that NJ Gambetta is shelved
for some time to come. NJ. Jules Simon
is almost alone in holding the contrary
opinion. am inclined to believe that
the general impression is we'll founded.
NJ Gambetta, despite his unQuestioned
ability, is out of sympathy with both
the prevailing currents of public opinion
in France-the reaotionary current and
the progressist. The Conservatives, who
once were Liberals, are rallYing to the
church, especially since the new law on
primary education, and NJ. Gambetta
certainly is not TO their liking. The Re-
publicans, on the other hand, wish to
decentralize, to decasarize France,
to augment the autonomy OF the
communes, to weaken the resist
ance of the magistraeY and TO
democratic the army. All this IS excel
lent, provided they renounce the re-
vanche. But NJ. Gambetta is the man
OF the revanche. He is, therefore, OBJ
posed to whatever weakens the central
power and the army. and while France
and the Chamber are ultra-paclfic, NJ;
Gambetta at heart dreams of war. F--fuH

A strange scene occurred at the Cirque
d'Ete, Paris, few night ago. The MARQUIS
de Bois-Herbert and his charming wife,
from wnon he is 1epersted, met there acct
dentally. The Marquise had her little boy
with her, and was sitting quietly in the
front seats, when her husband came behind
her aud forcibly carried off the child, not,
however, till his wife had stabbed him in the
face with tiny gilt dagger which she was
gearing in her bonnet. N. le Marquis, It

Marduise was at first distracted, but her
anxiety was quickly Gained, when, on
driving home, she found the boy sleeping
quietly In bed. His father had had time to
reflect, and probably repented Of his yio-
lence. 1t is understood that the heroine Of
this affair win soon make her appearance on
the operate stage.
Mary Leister, young German Jewess,
made complaint before apolice magistrate
against her husband, David Lester, of New
York, on Saturday, OF having endeayored
to obtain her consent to a divorce under
threats Of violence. She stated that she
had paid ten dollars for an introduction to
