VICTORIOUS DEMOCRACY!

The election Of Cleveland to
the presidency is now an almost
assured fact. He has received the
support of a solid South and has
carried New York, New Jersey
Indiana and Connecticut, which
gives him decided majority of
the electoral votes, and on the 4th
day of March there is bat little
doubt but what Grover Cleveland
will be inaugurated as president
of the United States.
In Georgia everything passed
off serenelyan the democrats car
ried the day by about 10000. Ten
democratic Congressman were
elected in our State, Harris de-
feating Persons in the Fourth and
and Crisp defeating Bell in the
Third.
= CleI eland carried the Northern
States named above by majorities
ranging from four toffteen thous-
and.
Il The earliness of the hour we go
to press prevents our giving a
more extended notice now, but we
will more fully review the situa-
ton in our next.
LATER Since the above was
put in type Capt. VIM. Kaigler
received a telegram from Atlanta
stating that New York had gone
republican by 5000 majority
We can't wait for further develop
mems without being behind with
our publication.

At White Superior Court last
week a young man by the name of
Daniel was put upon his trial for
shooting Mrs. Henson about two
months ago. The proof showed
that he secreted himself behind a
stable near the residence Of Mrs.
Hensons in open daylight, and
made a noise to attract attention.
Mrs. Henson went to the door,
and was was Immediately riddled
with the contents of both barrels
of a double-barreled shotgun
She was struck in the head, face
arms and breast with a great num-
Ger of shot, and would have GER
tainly been killed on the spot if
the shot had not been too small.
