in this city. lie reports that he had
a long talk with Postmaster-General

difference of sentiment in regard to
silver, though there is marked inn
provement everywhere. He gave
the west few pointers when he said,

place and the Presidency, / am as
certain as | can be that the west will
never get anything till the people
stand together and ask as unit for
what they want, regardless OF poll-
tics"

A bill has been brought in the
Georgia Legislature that will make
the hearts of the fair sex in cultured
Boston flutter wildly, and if they
don't emigrate to this Southern State
they will want like bill passed in
the Legislature of Mass. 1t is bull
