General Wolsley evidently sees the
futility of attempting to corral the Nah
di, or his next friend Osman Digna,
on. the great African desert this sum-
mer, and his dispatches favor an early
withdrawal from Soudan. AS it will
be months before the English soldiers
can hope to make an advance movement
on the Soudanese rebels it would seem
the better policy to take them to some
more solubrious cline while they are
waiting for the arid season to pass by.
They are likely to be more than decim-
ated by the climate if they spend the
hot months on the shore of the Red sea.

Harmony.

Dresden Enterprise
The Pulaski CITIZEN, in most re-
spects an able, conservative and
sensible democratic newspaper, has
made a plea for harmony between
the two warning democratic fac
lions.
1t may be a praiseworthy desire
on the part of the CITIZEN to see its
party unified, but the indications
are that it yearns for the impossi-
BILE.
When oil can be made to mix
with water, then perhaps will it be
possible for progressiveness to fel-
IOwship with mOssbackism. AS the
former is a physical impossibility,
so is the latter a moral impossi-
bility.
The quarrel between the two dem
ocratic factions in Tennessee is Eot
for the spoils Of office, It is more
serious than that, 1t is a quarrel
on principle.
The two factions are personified
by our two senators, Jackson and
Harris. Here are two national rep
resentatives of Tennessee demOcra-
cy, Numerically opposed to each
other on every public policy, and
they faithfully represent their re-
spective factions. They politically
resemble each other about as much
as night resembles day. Harris,
stepped in all the prejudices of for
mer conflicts, a narrow partisan, a
trimmer for retention in office, forms
a striking contrast TO Jackson,
democrat of liberal and progressive
views, a statesman who rises above
all selfish consideration in follow
ing what he conceives to be the
path of duty.
The political alchemist who can
resolve these two factions into one
must also possess the power to Gre
ate new natural laws for his spe-
cial task.
Tennessee democracy can not be
saved by a patched up truce be
tween mossbackism and prcgres
siveness. The former must be re-
tired from leadership and the latter
must be put at the helm, or a
dwindling democratic majority will
soon reach the minority represent
ed by the machine and Harris.

Cancer CONQUERED.

For seven years past have suffered
with a cancer on my face, At first it
gave me but little trouble, and paid
| very little attention to it. After time
| it began to increase in size, and also to
pain nc. The single remedies were
| applied to alleviate the pain, but | was
not conscious of its true nature think
| ing it only a sore of malignant nature,
and would soon pass away under the
other treatment. In this l was mista-
ken, as the place continued to grow,
extending into my nose, from which
came a yellewish discharge very often
slve in character. 1t was also inflamed,
and annoyed me great deal, About
eight months l was in Atlanta, at the
house Of friend, Mrs. G. d, H, who
observed the condition of my face, and
so strongly recommended the use of
Swilt's Specific that | determined to
make an effort to procure it. In this l
was successful, and began its use. The
influence of the medicine at first was to
somewhat aggravate the sore; but soon
the inflammation was, allayed, and l
began to improve after the first few
bottles. My general health has greatly
improved. | am stronger, and am able
to do any kind of work. The cancer
on my face began to decrease and the
ulcer to heal, until there is not vestige
of it left-only a little scar marks the
place where it had been. l am deveut-
" grateful for this wonderful relief
from what everybody thought would be
certain death. | am ready to answer
all questions relative to this cure.

WashfngtonLetter.

WARRINGTON, d. c., Oct. 9, 1885,
The masses of the democrats are in ia
Vor of honest civil service reform, as is
the president, and the action of
congress will give expression to the
fact; but they are not in favor OF a pol
icy'that will require the government to
wait until the present corrupt crew
now filling the offices shall die before
that reform is inaugurated. 1t is a
queer civil service reform that fills the
offices with republicans and keeps them
there with no possible chance of change
until death iinterv enes and affords OPP
pOrtunity for an honest man TO be ap-
pointed.
While all eyes are turned to Ohio,
and the result of her election on Tues
day next will be anxiouslY awaited,
still that result cannot be said to have
national political si9nificance,as from
the press as well as the public express
sion of the candidates, it is evident that
state and local, and not national ques-
tons, will to a marked extent, infiu-
ence the voters. Ohio is at most a
dou btful state; she has been republic
can in severy presidential year since
1860, and while her vote this year may
be an Indication of what she may be
! in 1888, it will not be conclusive as to
that matter.
There are more representative demo-
Gratis in the city at this time than ever
before known at this season, They
are here from.a the states on business,
pleasure and political missions, and it
is a matter of some surprise that they
all report marked improvement in their
several states in business-groWth AID
prosperity. While it has gone out to
the country that much fault is found
with the administration, these gentle
men almost universally report that
while there are a few dissatisfied, the
masses of people are pleased and graft
fed, and the president has the hear ty
support of all the business and indus
trial classes. 1t was naturally TO be
expected that an entire change in adj
ministration would produce friction,
but this has been SO slight as to cause
surprise. There has been no percept-
able jar, and all changes made have
been of a character to cause the wheels
of government to revolVe more evenly,
and at the same time more econOmi-
cally.
Among the members of congress Wis
iting here, one hears almost nothing
said about the speakership. 1t appears
to be generally conceded that Mr.. Car
Isle will be elected without democratic
opposition, through Mr.. Randall may
again contest the nomination with him
During the month of September the
output of standard silver coin exceeded
the coinage. This is the first time since
the Bland silver bill was passed that
this has occurred in any one month.
Over $2,700,000 was put in circulation.
There is beginning to be some stir in
Washington society. Our society folk
who have been spending the summer
at the springs and seashOre and among
the mountains are rapidly returning to
their homes at the capital. At the
white house, Mr.. Cleveland's sister,
Mrs. Hoyt, is doing the honOrs, and
she has with her as guests Mrs. and
Miss Folsom of Albany, who will re-
main here for two or three weeks.

Crops and Conditions.

Weather indications and condi-
tions have been of unusual interest
on account of the interesting stage
of some of the principal crops.
Frosts have occurred in large di-
vision of the grain belt, but have
done no damage to corn, but the
experiences of cotton, with other
causes, have been less fortunate
extensive and serious injury from
excessive rain being reported in the
southwest, while the central cotton
belt has suffered further injury
from a variety Of causes. Cotton
crop estimates have been reduced
from 100000 and 100000 bales
to 100000 and 6,250,000. The
yield of corn is confidently estimat-
ed at about 2,OOO,O00,O0O bushels,
with a fair overplus from the 1884
crop in lieu of the practical exhaus
tion of old supplies at the advent of
the crop of last year, implying, on
the whole, a supply at least $780,
100000 bushels larger. The tobacco
crop escaped injury from frost and
weather conditions are perfectly
adapted to the ripening stage in
which the plants are at present. In
Louisiana and Texas, in addition
to the injury to cotton, a far great
er loss is apprehended, to the gulf
rice crop. A serious failure in the
New York potato crop is reported.
With these exceptions the situation
continues highly satisfactory.

Tho Now Star.

New York Sun: The suddenness
of the appearance of the new star
in Andromeda is not the only re
markable thing about this wonder
full phenomenon. 1t has already
faded to a faint speck, visible only
with powerful telescopes, and. while
parting with its light it has exhib-
ited very singular changes of brill
liancy. Sometimes it has been seen
to fare up with a sudden accession
of light. like fire that has found
fresh fuel, and several experienced
observers have seen it Pickering IN
q manner that suggested still more
closely a resemblance to actuai
flames.
That the phenomenon was due to
an outburst of heat affecting an
enormous mass matter can hardly
be doubted, but the true story OF
this celestial confagration may new
er be written.
