A GEoRGIA editor is responsible
for the remark that "the happiest
moment in a young lady's life is
when s8e has a real, live sweet

Of her existence was when she had

WHEN a man undertakes to pass
upon the faults of his neighbor5
he ought to be very sure that he
is not guilty of something worse.
Simply because the world doesn't t
happen to know of his dark deeds
it is no reason why the gravity Of
the offense should be lessened. If
the secret sins Of men could be
laid open to the world to inspect
and scrutinize, many who now
boast of their capacity to pass in
judgement upon their neighbors
would be found to be perfect
stencil in the nostrils Of all the
world.

General Toombs, illustrating the

Stenhens, during the day, fell into
the company OF General ..l,lda;o', IolaoS'

remarked:
"Well, General, | see that nan
Tucker denies that he is dead.

The Circus That is Coming.

The Nashville American of Oct.
l1th, in speaking of Sells Bros.
circus, which will exhibit in Daw-
son,on the 18th of November, saws:
''The Sells Brothers pitched
their CITY of Tents" in the Sui
phur Springs Park yesterday af-
ter an imposing street pageant,
and gave two entertainments to
Immense audiences, afternoon and
night. The reputation of the
Sells Brothers is fully established
and so we'll in this city, that their
strong credentials from the press
elsewhere was not necessary to in
sure them warm welcome. They
have not exaggerated their claim
to have the best show of the sea-
son Of 1885. but have really
ecipsed themselves. All the old
time, monotonous acts Of ancient
clrouses have been discarded from
their programme, which presents
a continuous kaleidoscope of n vel
and surprising features, with no
tedious delay, and no coarseness
in the ring. Their arenic actors
have evidently been selected with
care, embracing such artists as
Misses Adelaide Coadona, Polly
Lee and Alice Jackson, with Viii
lie Sells, VIM. Gorman and Jas.
Bell at the head of the list. A
host of tumblers, dcrcbats and
athletes are headed by the famous
Stark family byciclists. The me-
nagerie has many rare specimens
of the animal kingdom, among
them male and female hippo
potamus and very handsome gi-
raffp.
The feature most enjoyed by
the Juveniles was the laua liable
performance of Sidney" the edu-
Gated clown-elephant, introduced
by Billy Burke, the laugh-maker.
Take it for all in all it was an
excellent performance and the
menagerie far above the average.
The circus left last night for
Franklin and Columbia.

FIVE months of the present Demo
cratic administration will have closed
by the 4th of August, and still the
Democratic promise of.better times has
not overtaken us yet. Those who wore
led by this Turing cry to vote for
making q change have found decided
change, but not what they were led to
anticipate. II the situation before was
bad the change has been from bad to
worse. The foolish souls who were led
to vote for q change. only realize now
what fools they have been. They were
not satisfied with remaining with a
party that had saved the nation and
had given to it u grand industrial sys-
tem, such as no other nation ever knew,
but tkey see nov when 1t is too late 10
make amends the mistake they have
made.
1t ia remarkably strange that the
workingmen of the nation do not real
ize that the Democratic party of the
country is not u friend to labor. EverI
body knows or ought TO knowthat there
is a great difference between the tive
leading parties in this respect The
Republican party enancipated the labcs
of the South, which before the war wac
entirely slave. and the Democratic
party tried to keep it snslaved. The
Republican party gave to the slave is-
Dor of the south the ballot for its pro
lection, but the Democratic party, by
, organized assassination and fraud
robbed them IF that defense. The Re
p1blican party esta ablished the common
n l.. ~ fnf faG N
ocder that southern labor in the future
IN light be educated, but Democratic
policy and plans have defeated tina
purpose. Now as of old the Demo
cratic party having destroyed education
in the South ignorant and cheap labol
must follow.
Bat we are asked what effect this
| policy has upon Labor in the Northern
States. That Is not difficult to see Il

EXCEPTIONS have been taken by
the Egery Evening to calling John
Roach 9 The Father of Shipbuildiug
in America, apparently because it
thru ws a reelection upon Wilmington
shipbuilders who were at the business
long before John Roach commenced it.
This Is no doubt true, and in strict
acceptation of the term it may be
rather stretch of the reality, as the
man who led off in iron shipbuilding
is certainly the pioneer in this business
In this light the II 4rlan * llollings-
worth Company and the pusey x Jones
Company take precedence. But il
must not be forgotten that Mr.. Roach
commenced the business in ouch au
earnest way and with 40 much vigol
that new life was infused into the busi
ness, but for which hundred of thu
boats built by Mr.. Roach would have
been built upon the Clyde instead O
the Delaware, and in al. probability tb
number of ships built by our Whining
ton builders would not have been $
great.
But 1t is so much the name Of Th
father of ship building" that we clait
for Mr.. Il zach as that he is the maste
ship builder of America. None haS
bull. anything like the number
built, and in quality they have new
lacked the required high standard
excellence. Even rival ship bnilde
of our own city do not aver tn
Roach's ships were weaker or more i
differently built than those built hei
but only that they were not finished
handsomely nor in as workmanlike
manner.
