When Judge N. ]. Durha1

When Judge NJ. ]. Durham wrote
letter rejecting upon the present
state administration, he probably did
not think Gov. Knott was loaded,
but this he was egregiously mistaken.
The Courier-Journal of Saturday
contained two-column open letter
written in Gov. Knots own peculiar
style of whitening sarcasm and irony
that was about the liveliest reading
that has been in the papers this year.
Itparalyzed and pulverized Durham's
gubernatorial boomlet and made the
First Comptroller of the Treasury
appear in a very ridiculous light.
That gentleman published reply
in the Courier-Journal of Tuesday
but it was very tame affair and
showed conclusively that Judge
Durham is unable to cope intellect
ually with the Statesman of Duluth
fame.

LAMAR'S ROMANCE.
It Is Now Settled That the Mis-
sissippi Statesman Will Wed
His First Love.

The engagement of Secretary La
m II TO Mrs. Holt, widow of Gen. holt,
of Macon, Ga, which was hintel at
when Mr.. Lamar visited the South
last month, is now believed to be
true. The date for the ceremony is
as yet unknown, but that the we'd
ding will be celebrated some time
during the summer, while the Secre-
tary is enjoying his vacation, is the
belief of all who know him. Mrs.
Holt is described as a fine looking,
well preserved woman, of the blonde
type, about flfty-flve years of age.
She was a Miss Dean, a descendant
of an old and wealthy Georgia fami-
ly. Prior to her marriage 10 Gen.
Holt there is believed 10 have been
romantic attachment between her
and Mr.. Lamar, who at that time was
quite young man. Events did not
shape themselves as the young people
wished, and after a time Miss Dean
married Mr.. Holt and Mr.. Lamar
married some one else. Mrs. Holt
became the mother of two daughters,
both Of whom are married-one to
Mr.. Bergen, the representative of an
old Macon family; the other to Capt.
Robt. E. Park, formerly of Lagrange.
When Gen. Holt died, some years
ago, he left his wife an estate valued
at $4,000. She had also inherited
some money from her father, so that
she became the richest woman in
Georgia. Most other property is in
vested in local and railroad securities.
She has large interest in the South
western railroad, of which her broth
er-in-law, Col. Jones, is President.
Col. Jones and. his wife, who lives at
Macon, are all that is left of the i'm
mediate family of Mrs, Holt, aside
from her children. Her son-in-law
and daughter, Capt. and Mrs. Park,
live with her in the family mansion
which is one of the handsomest in
Macon. 1t stands in the center of a
handsome bit of property in the most
fashionable part OF the city. This is
the only piece of real estate which
Mrs. Holt owns.

CIIARLGSTON'S LOSS OUR LOSS.

While we are some distance from
the scenes which arc now rcnding our
people, and OF the section Of our
State which is now suffering severely
from the shocks Of earthquake on
Tuesday, the 3lst ult., at the same
time we must not forget that whatever
affects our city by the sea must nee.
essarily injurc every town in the
State. Charleston has been paying
one sixth Of the entire taxes OF the
State, and if her property is destroy.
ed, her business taken from her, the
burden will fall more heavily upon
the interior counties Of the State. and
our credit will suffer thereby. The
State bonds are lower to-day than
they have been for several years 80.
lOd against no thirty days ago. 1t
therefore behoovcs us to aid Charles
ton in her efforts to build up the
waste places, by contributions, by
business, and the assurance that we
are not willing TO let any member of
the body Of our grand old State suf-
Ter for lack Of effort on our part.
