and all Of the rest OF the state house fur

F. G. duBignOn of this city before the
people as their candidate. and. at the
same time. praying that something would
happen TO prevent him from accepting
the seading place on the ticket. The
movement TO set aside Mr.. duBignon has
been begun. 1t is reported from Atlanta
that his health VII not permit him to
be a candidate for Governor.
AS a matter OF fact Mr.. duBignon, &C
cordiRg to reports that can be relied up
on. is steadily improving. He is to be
seen on the streets every day. and is
attending to the burdensome duties Of
his large / !. practice. AS far as the
people of Savannah are informed he has
not intimated that he will not be can

their proiucts from China. The decline
in the consumption Of cotton By South
