A resourceful Bohemian comes forward with the
suggestion that canceing-stamp be invented
which shall print the Star-Spangled Banner upon
all envelopes which it is used. Good. 1t
might be well to require all correspondents to use
envelopes large enough not only TO admit of the
stamp performing this patriotic service, but TO
give it chance Of adding extracts from the
Declaration of dependence and WaNhington's
Farewell Address We are not sure, however,
that il would be well TO have a music-boX at
tachad TO the stamp which would play Marching
Through Georgia Johnnie, Get Your Gun" and
other popular airs. There is such thing ask

Mr.. Winter furnishes some pleasant notes
from Stratford, town which has for him, as
for other Shakespeare lovers an abiding fas-
cnation and charm. Since his last visit the
Cover statue Of Shakespeare has been erected
"a work of art in which he sees some things
to commend and not little to critciSe. The
list of autographs of notabiliteS which the
registers Of the Red Horse Hotel contain are
a valuable and unique memorial of the visitors
to Shakespeares shrine. 1t is curious, though
perhaps not surprising, to be told that extreme
vigilance has to be exercised to prevent them
from being mutilated or stolen.

A NEW SUGGESTION WHAT TO

The City Market as 1t is-Recent I'M

One Of the most important things in a
city which affects the general welfare of
the people is a market. 1t is to such place
that housekeepers who are ever worrying

ton given o the wholesomeness of all kinds
Of eatables by an inspector, whose duty it is
to report any sign of impure vegetables or
meats that might be offered to the public,
makes it pretty safe for consumers. No
ticing a crowd around stalls No. 81 and 6S,

Attorney.
The friends of Marion Erwin in this city,
aud the other cities of the district, are sur
prised that his appointment as United

unanimously by the bar of Savannah, Ma
con, Augusta and Bru swick, by Judge
Speer, the presiding Judge Of the district;
by the retiring district attorney, who re-
signed, and also recommended by Judge
Erskine.
A warm friend of Mr.. Erwin said last
night; "The delay is mystery, and more
especially so as Mr.. Query has resig ned
AID there is no strong opponent Ia the field.
Mr.. Erwin has unquestionable qualiflca-
of the bar for eight years, has bee 4
clerk Of the United States district court for
six years. his clerical connection with the
United States courts having fitted him for
district attorney beyond the average law
yer. Besides he was admitted to practice
Ia the United States courts Two years be-
fore he qualified as clerk. No one doubts
his qualifications. He is young man of
"a, graduate of the Athens university
aud studied law with G lisholm & Erwin of
this city, and passed rigid examination in
the superior court and afterward in the
United States court"
IL is believed by the less impatient friends
of Mr.. Erwin that his appointment will be
made by the President early this week.

you may say" said the mayor that the
quarantine improvements which are being
added by the city are the impro vement and
extension of the wharves; temporary shelter
for all men engaged on the wharves under
the supervision of the quarantine officer; a
double engine and hosting apparatus for
unloading ballast by mechanical power
extending the tramway fifty feet farther
back from the wbarvcs 50 that ballast may
be discharged farther inland; the sinking Of
an artesian well to supply pure drinking
water for the city employees and crews Of
vessels and for boiler supply, as the water
at the quarantine station is salty, except at
low tide.
"The idea," the mayor said, ''is to
operate the quarantine ballast work for
the benefit Of commences; to expedite
the discharge of ballast, thereby giving
vessels quicker dispatch to come into
port. The charges will be very moderate,
as the city does not want TO make money
out Of the necessities OF vessels coming to
this port. The health officer is now Ell
gagged in considering rules and regulations
for the conduct Of the station, which will
be ready before the improvements now in
