Beside manifold other indications of
progress and prosperity, Florence, Ala,
claims to have under way the largest cotton
mill in the south. 1t is to contain $1,000
spindles. Southern cotton mills are ex-
tremely prosperous, earning dividends from
IL to 25 per cent. AT first only the coarsest
class of goods were turned out. but the grade
is now equal to any. In fact, according to
the Tertite World. the goods of the Clifton
mills of the finest grade are being initiated
by New England mills. There is no reason
why the south cannot manufacture cotton
goods equal in every respect to the New
England product. This investment of half
million dollars by New England parties
shows that they believe this country offers
the best field. A great deal of cotton is
raised right around Florence, over $500
bales being raised in Lauderdale county
alone Water power is abundant also, be-
sides an unlimited quantity of cheap coal.
And the Tennessee river, in addition to her
numerous railroads, gives Florence cheap
transportation TO the markets of the world.
Alabama seems to be forging to the front

Such tidal wave as we had last Tuesday
renders comparison with past congress
sional elections somewhat interesting Com
rnencing with the Forty-fourth congress,
elected in 1874, the composition of the
House OF Representatives were as follows:
Forty fourth congress, democrats 107, re
publicans 1856; Forty-ffth, democrats 1855,
republicans 1873; Forty democrats l49,
republicans 1871, greenbackers Is; Forty
seventh, democrats 40. republicans l49,
greenbackers 9, readjusters 2, Independents
2; Forty-eighth, democrats 1856, republicans
1l6. readjusrers 5, greenbacker /, indeoend-
ent 1; Forty-niath, democrats 1874, repub-
icans al; Fiftieth, democrats 167, repub-
Iicans 1873. independents 4; Fifty first, DEM
ocrats 151, republicans IT'S, independent /.
With the exception OF the democratic tidal
wave which gave the democrats plurality
Of 80 over the republicans in the Forty
eighth congress, elected in 1882, the Demo-
cratic party has never had a ms iority In the
House comparable in numbers to that Sc
cured on Tuesday last Another fact of
interest is that the democratic representa-
ton from the north and west will be as
great as if not greater than the representa-
ton from the same sections in the Forty
eighth congress. But this is the first time
In the history of congress that any party
has ever held two-thirds majority.

Last NiRht,s Celebration.

Savannah never does anything by halves
Her celebration last night Of the unp-ecs-
dsuted victory which the Democratic party
won on Nov. 4. was on grand soala. Shs
did not simply call ASS meeting, as soma
Of her sister cities did she had big torch
light procession, an illumination, liberal
display Of bunting aud number of first
class speeches Half the town was in the
streets and there was an amount Of enthusi-
asm that is seldom witnessed when the
party victorious in presidential
campaign is giving vent to its joy. Savan-
nah knows how TO conduct a celebration
whatever the nature of the celebration may
be, and she has the generosity and en-
thusiasm necsss airy for successful one.
II the Democratic party wins victory In
1892 that at all compares with the one won
this year, Savannah will have a celebration
that viii command the attention of the en-
tire country.

After breaking into congress on the
Langston plan, by the aid and conuivance
of an INSCRIPTIONS republican majority, to
misrepresent Florida district one Colo
mel" Goodrich has been complaining to the
New York Tribune of the exemplary
Ignorance" as he is pleased to call it, of
Floridians in general and legislators in par
ticular. Still, 1t appears that the colonel
is not sufficiently superior in point of in
telect to impose himself upon them as a
statesman nor even as a creditable repre-
sentative, and he only got into
congress by the connivance of
outside accomplices without the consent of
those he claims to represent, Just the same
as he might contrive to get anything else
that belonged to them. In view of these
facts, his statements concerning relative in
telligence. nor anything else cannot be &C
copied without corrohorative evidence.
Notwithstanding their alleged saturated
condition of benighted illiteracy, they still
manage to scuffie along without the aid or
counsel of the colonel" and they also know
enough to vote against him with systematic
regularity. Possibly that accounts for his
very discreet course in going to Washington
to begin his campaign arguments" after
tho election was over.

"Now I Lay Ne Down to Sleep
From the Pittsburo Dispatch.

from u1e PtttSourq Dispatch.
In the quiet nursery chamber,
Snowy pillows yet Impressed
See the forms of little children
kneeling white robed for their rest
All in quiet nursery chambers.
While the dusty shadows creep,
Hear the voices Of the children
Now lay me down to Sleep
In the meadow and the mountain
Calmly shine the winter stars.
But across the gistening lewland
Slant the mooplight's silver bars,
In the silence and the darkness.
Darkness growing still more deep,
Listen to the little children
Praying God their souls to keep.
IF we desc pray the children
And the mothers head drops low
Zone from out her fold is sleeping
Deep beneath the winters snow.
TAKE our souls, aad past the easement
Fits CLEAN of crystal light
Like the trailing of his garments
Walking evermore in white.
Little souls, that stand expectant,
Listening at the gates of life,
Hearing far away the murmur
OF the tumult and the strife:
We, who fight beneath those banners.
Meeting ranks OF foemen there,
Find deeper, broader meaning
In your simple vesper prayer.
When your hand shall grasp the standard
Which to-day you watch from far,
When your deeds shall shape the conflict
In this universal war,
Pray to Him, the God Of battles
Whose strong eye can never sleep.
In the warning of temptation,
Firm and true your souls to keep.
When the combat ends, and slowly
Clears the smoke from out the skies;
When far down the purple distance,
All the noise Of battle dies;
When the last nights solemn shadows
Settle down on you and me,
May the love that never faileth
Take our souls eternalIy.

Thanksgiving day comes with great
regularity on the last Thursday of Novem-
Der, but it is not a fixture, and no one can
say in advance of the Presidents proclama-
tion. what day may be chosen. President
Harrison has followed the usual custom
however. and Thursday, Nov. 81, has been
set apart ito be observed as a day of prayer
and thanksgiving" Sometimes, but not
always, the governors of the states also
issue proclamations appointing the same
day for thanksgiving. In some states
Thanksgiving day is a legal holiday,
whether appointed to be observed by the

however, that very large majority of

reason of their education, to engage in pur-

Prof. Koch is too much of a scientist to
indulge In such roseate promises for his

would have him make. He asks his friends
TO refrain from discussing the subject until

reliable results. This is not to be taken as
sign of failure, but as indicating that DR..
Koch, as an investigator, is possessed of a
proper degree of caution. On account of
his reputation he cannot afford to declare
that he has found a cure until he has made
