Atlanta, Ca, 19.-All the Congress
men Of this state have been nominated.
There are three republican candidates,
SIX independent democrats, and nine
regular democrats. This shows an ad-
vance IL republicanism and independent
democracy. Down with bourbonism in
all Of its shades is now the prevailing
CRY in every section, and combined efforts
will be made by republican and independ-
ent democrats to free the state from its
ruinous rule, and open wide the gates for
prosperity in Georgia and the south.
The outlook is more encouraging and un-
less q good deal of counting oct and
ballot box stufing is resorted 10 a msjo-
rity of the number In November will be
republicans and Independent democrats.
Tili0n and Speer's, independently cleo
ton is assured, and the most encouraging
news for anti-BourbOns comes from all
sections. For the frat time in years
republicans Of this state have come for
ward and dem anded their right, as free
men, and independent democrats, and
liberal minded citizens are going to see
they get them. When the BOurbons be-
come thoroughly satisfied that If the
election is not conducted fairly Congress
will take hand in declaring the result.
it Is believed they will act honestly and
not practice their skilled methods o9
treachery. The incoming legislature to
be elected in about two weeks, will, from
all appearance, be largely composed Of
independent democrats and republicans.

Of the house. The windows are
surprise, there are 50 many, and
they are of the heaviest French
plate glass, as thick as the finger,
and beautifully clear. There are
but the two panes, one above and
one below. The halls are finished
in oak and the chambers in pine,
and almost every one of the latter
has an open CRATE. There are TWEEN
ty-three rooms, exclusive of eight
bath rooms, each one of these hav-
ing the stationary stand, tub, ect.
There is a fine billiard room in the
basement and Russian bath on the
second floor. The dumb waiter is
the size of an ordinary elevator, and
runs from the basement to the gar
ret. The contract for this house
made the cost $4,000, but it will
cost $4,000, if not more, many
many changes having been made,
differing from the original plan.

Mr.. Robson, Mr.. Blaine, and Sena-

In this neighborhood, a little to
the north, is "Stewart Castle"
which a few years ago stood out
grandly and alone a conspicuous
monument to the folly of man.
Every visitor to Washington will
probably remember its tall tower
aud asylum like appearance. To-
day its glory is gone and it has a
shabby look and forsaken air. Two
years ago last winter the alarm of
fire rang out one cold night about
ten O'Clock and few moments later
one of the most beautiful illumina-
tiOns ever seen was made by the
flames ascending that tall tower.
No effort has been made to restore
the granduer destroyed by that con-
Migration. When Senator Stewards
daughter was married from this
house it stood all alone in open lots
of red clay, wet ard undrained, and
the guests of that wedding, which
was a large one, drove out over the
muddiest roads q distances which
seemed like going into the country.
Those who remember the locality as
it was then would be amazed to look
at it now. Dom PEDRO
