For about two weeks the Telegraph
has been denouncing General Cor
don for having ''slandered'' the late
Senator Hill. General Gordon said
in his speech at Americas that Mr..
Hill had rendered him share in the
State road lease which he had de-
cllned. That is the statement pure
and simple. Every one who heard
the speech agrees that General Cor
don coupled this statement with a
glowing eulogy on Mr.. Hill, bearing
ardent testimony to MI Hills incor-
ruptlble character and his crystal in
tegrlty. The whole point is that
General Gordon states Mr.. Hill of
fered him It share in the State road
lease, which General Gordon declin-
ed. Is this "slander!" Mr.. Hill
certainly did not think so, for in the
official printed proceedings of the in
yestigating committee on the lease
(Judge Reese chairman on page 300,
Mr.. Hill himself testifes that he did
offer General Gordon the share in
lease and that General Gordon de-
cllned 1T. General Gordon himself

GORDON'S KINDNESS.
From the Cnthbcrt 1Ga.l Appeal.

FROM lit NNiNbeii wa J Appeal.
IN incident proving the devotion
of Gen. Gordon to his soldiers was
related to MS few days ago by a
young friend who lives on the line Of
Randolph and Stewart counties, near
County Line church. In his neigh
borhood lives Mr.. Robert Ware, who
was Immediately under Gen. Gordon
during the war. Just after one of
the hardest fought battles of the war.
in which the troops Of both sides
were moved down like the ripe
wheat before the scythe, Mr.. Ware
was commanded to 90 on picket du-
ty. 1t was a bitter cold night The
snow was on the ground many inches
deep. Mr.. Ware had come out of
the battle just fought without rccely-
ing any wounds, but with the loss of
nearly all his clothing. To have
stood at his post OF duty during the
night would have besn sure death.
As Gen. Gordon rode down the line
that night he discovered the situa-
ton Of Mr.. Ware, only poor soldier
as he was, and his heart went out in
sympathy to him. Removing his
own coat, hat and shoes he turned
them over to the trembling guard
aud finished his ride in that condi-
ton. MIR. Ware survived the con-
flict, returned home and settled down
on his farm, but he never forgot this
simple act Of kindness, and his first
born after the war was christened
"Gordon Ware" 1t cannot be dis.
putcd that Gen. Gordon has a heart
for his people, capable Of sympathiz.
ing with them in their needs, both
IN the war and since, and his past
life has demonstrated this fact to the
perfect satisfaction Of al unbiased
minds.

VICTORY FOR GORDON.

Tuesday was Waterloo for Major
Bacon and a grand victory for Gener-
al Gordon. A number of counties
that were thought to have been fixed
Tor Bacon and were FASTENED up 10
hold mass meetings showed the
strength of Gordon. Seven counties
elected Gordon delegates--Dooly,
Forsyth, Polk, Gordon, Carroll
Lumpkin and Murray, and two coun-
ties went for Bacon-Catoosa and
Columbia-while HARRISON showed
up Gordon men two to one and the
mass meeting was reconsidered and a
primary called. Pickens was called
as citizens meeting" and the Re
publlcans, Day and others took charge
of it and elected Bacon delegates, re-
tuslng to make it a democratic meet
ing. The democrats withdrew, or
gained and called primary. Re
publicans have no right to participate
in democratic nominations, any more
than democrats would have a right
to choose standard bearers for the
Republican party. Such a political
hermaphrodite as the Pickens coun-
ty affair will not stand.

A CERTIFICATE OF CHARACTER.

"Of and ON the writer has known
Governor Brown more than a quar-
ter OF a century as friendly ally
and political opponent. Opportuni-
ty has been afforded to test his char
acter and resources to the full, and it
is no effort for us to put on record
the fact that whatever may be his
weaknesses, he neither lies nor steals.
= : He may drive a close bargain,
when opportunity offers, but we re-
peat that Georgia can put trust in
the fact that he does not lie nor
steal. Hacoa Teienoph, Uog 28th,
1886.
The above are significant words,
and coming from Maj. Bacon's organ,
the Macon Telegraph, astonishes us
considerably, when it is taken into
consideration that Maj Bacon and that
paper have denounced Brown, Col
quit and Gordon as the political ring
and triumvirate that entered into a
bargain and sale" of a high public
trust. This expIodes its high sound
ing cry OF Atlanta ring. After all Of
It's abuse Of Gov. Brown for ears il
now gives him as good certificate
OF character as any man need want.
a man who "neither lies nor steals
will do nothing else mean. We do
not believe this good certificate Of
character would have been forth com.
ing from such an unexpected source
if it had not been shown that Major
Bacon sent for Joe Brown during the
last nominating convention and wa,
closeted with him, making friendl,
oyerturcs for his ''inhuence" to Sc.
cure the nomination. Gov. Brown
assured Major Bacon that he prefer.
red him to the other candidate, but
Joe Browns influence did not pre-.
vail and Gov, Mcdaniel secured the
nomination. Evidently Governor
Browns influence" is wanted again
in the present race by Major Bacon,
If the Macon Telegraph believes
what it says that Governor Brown
will "neithcr lie nor steal" then it
must cease to charge General Cor
don with dishonorable motives in re-
signing the Senate, for Governor
Brown sustains General Gordon and
Governor Colquitt's version of the
matter
Now, that the Telegraph has given
Senator Brown certificate Of the
highest character, after years Of
abuse, we expect some day it viii do
the same for Gen. Gordon.

readers buy newspapers in order to

EMBALMED BY THE SOIL.

Human bodies buried in limestone
countries are often turned to solid
stone by the limc-water which pene-
trates the graves. In other soils there
are elements which sometimes so en-
balm the buried dead as to preserve
form and features unchanged. Many
such eases are on record. Robert

features We're found to be as perfect
as at burial.
The case Of John IIampden, the ia
nous English patriot and leader, was
more surprising. His body was dis
inferred by Lord Nugcnt, two hun
bred years after burial, but form and
features were as unchanged as if the
corpse had been recently laid in the
grave.
When General Washingtons body
was taken up at Mt. Vernon, to be
laid IN sarrophagus and removed to
the permanent tomb, his face was
found to be in state Of perfect pres
eryation.
In all these cases, however, the
process OF decay had gone on inter
nally, though arrested at the surface.

TIE BLODGETT CANDIDATE.

The Calhoun Times, a Fain organ.
admits IN its last week issue chat
Judge Fam voted for Foster Blod-
gett for United States Senator when
he was a member of the General AS
sembly OF Georgia in 1870, and tries
TO defend this questionable action in
an apologize article that for Fain to
bow the knee to the Radical Baal was
polite, because tho Radical majority
in the Senate at thai time offered t.
retain State Senator Wellborn in his
seat and elect three democratic

For man to abandon his princi-
pies and convictions of right and tic
evil in order that good may come, is
a very poor example to set to the ris-

example as set 10y Fain, would have

clare that in cutting the cherry tree
with his little Ratchet, it was for the
good OF the cherry tree, and there
