N"Athens, April 16.-The Daily State: I have just found time at the-end of my court to notice the leading editorial in your issue of April 9, in regard to the free silver meeting lately held in this place. In that editorial you said that under the resolutions of Mr Mcclellan, who is and has been an opponent of the democratic party, as we are informed, we would be committed to the support of the republican party if that party should advocate free silver. You then intimate that my course might lead into the negro camp.
 ''l suppose, among gentlemen, 1 will be allowed to set myself right when thus misunderstood or misrepresented.
 Tn short, l am not an organized, nor Q republican, nor a popuite. I do not believe the organized in the state is the democratic party. In my judgment it bears no resenb blance to the demo- cr;-tc party at any stage of its life. As for myself, stand where l always have. that is with the great mass of the unor- ganized white people of the state, for low tariff, republican government and free silver, against high tariff, usurpation and the single gold rtandard.
 Your alluson to the negro camp is particularly unfortunate in view of the fact that your organized faction is now buoyant with negro suffrage, real or fic- titiouS.
 Tn the issue of your paper referred to, you quoted with approval the language of MT. Carlisle to the effect that the de- struction of silver was worse than war, pestilence and famine Is it possible that you would let any faction or party make you help vote on your country such dire calamities? If I would. think 1 would feel that 1 was an enemy to my kind, traitor to my country and more guilty than thousands who have perished on the gallows
 "rhe free silver men must be crystal ized and combined' as MT. Cleveland wants the gold bugs to be: and if the free silver men don't get together they had as we'll give up the fight, own themselves slaves and bear their enduring ruin as best they can.

TORY.
TIL at is What the Maine Comrades Hope
to Secure at Louisville, Kentucky.

There was a decided feeling of discour-
agement on the part of the comrades OF
the Grand Army in Maine, who had
hoped to attend the national encamp-
ment at L ouisville, Ky.. because OF the
high prices charged for rooms. 1t would
cost about 81, 200 TO secure lodgings alone
for the Maine comrades, supposing all
should go who would like to.
A. NJ. Sawyer, of this city, who had the
matter in charge, was feeling discour-
aged when he was introduced to John
Middleton. an ex-Confederate soldier
and the eastern representative of the
Louisville house of Harry Weessingee
Company, who said that he thought he
could arrange the matter for the Maien
boys. Il am going home Friday" he
said to Mr.. Sawyer, "and think can
a tobacco factory, or SO much of it as
they may need. 1t is in reality big
hall, and we shall be glad to let you
have it, We fought on the other side,
but that won't make any difference in
our looking out for your comfort"
Mr.. Middleton started for home Friday,
and Mr.. Sawyer will hear from him in a
few days, and will probably then 90 to
Louisville himself. If Mr.. Middleton is
able to carry out his plan SO generously
suggested when he met Mr.. Sawyer, the
Maine comrades will be in great luck.

even after the disease has progressed SO
far as to induce repeated bleedings from
the lungs, severe lingering cough with
copious expectoration Cncluding tubercu-

emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
Our word for it. They have in nearly every
instance, been SO pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
trial of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
liver oil and its filthy emulsions, and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
q short time. Extract of malt whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.

those cured of consumption, bronchitis,

Among the most curious indications
Of the evolution Of democracy in old
Europe is the gradual disappearance Of
the thrOne-meaning not the institution
Of monarchy. but the actual palpable
chair of state, preferably of gold embel-
lished with gems sd lib.tum. which we
used to hear so much about in fairy
tales The throne. TIL recently a pal
pa5le reality, is to-day only q symbol.
The newspapers tell OF a monarch's ac-
cesslon TO the throne Of his ancestors,
of carrying popular complaints TO the
throne, Of speeches from the throne.
This throne is said to be firm, that 10 b

This IS 50 true that if Q man were
asked TO descibe the piece of furniture
in question he would be seriously en-
barrGssed In bis efforts.
IL is true that there are chairs OF
state-every sovereign has several
that are spoken of as thrones. But they
are 50 only for the moment. while the
monarch or his spouse occupies them,
whereas the veritable throne, that ma
jeStic raised seat made OF gold and in
Crusted with precious stones, seated on
which the monarch issued his edicts
and rendered justice. the thOne Of which
the very feet were saturated with mai

owns quantities Of decorated armchairs
that are alternately designated by the
name Of though no single one
can claim the dignity exclusively.
The most expensive Of all is prob
ably the chair that belonged to his maj

the Kremlin. This precious piece Of
furniture is composed entirely Of tur-
Qu0ise fitted into each other like the

contains 10000 of these precious stones,
which were picked out from the most
beautiful specimens known to those
times.
What is the British throne? It is the
stone seat of Edward the Confessor at
Westminster Abbey. which has served
for a thousand years as the coronation
seat Of the sovereigus OF Britain. Is it
the sump-uous chair of state in the
House OF Lords, or the seat occupied in
buckingham Palace. or the gilt arm
chair on which her Brlttanic majesty
sits at Windsor Palace when she gives
audience TO foreign ENJOYS?
Certainly no enc of her chairs claims
the title Of throne exclusively. The
/ English give it generally 10 the stone

/ is occupied only once by each monarch.
Thanks 10 the love Of Louis, King Of
Bavaria. for all that is sumptuous, that
country possesses more than a dozen
chairs wonderfully carved and covered
with gold and precious stones. They
are distributed among the numerous
