Mr. George W, Bryan, of the Central Hotel, who has been spending a few weeks in Florida, has come back borne. just a day or so too late to see our snow storms. George has filled , every i nook and corner of the hotel with walking canes of Florida woods, and keeps two or three pockets full of yonng saorians. We are glad to see bim looking so welL Capt. Jno. Wads worth, who baa been confined to his home for a week? with pneumonia, is recovering and .wU be but among his friends, again in a few days. - . - -'S CoL J ohn Lopland, of Iowa, a promi nent revenue man, registered at the Central yesterday. : t, : f ,". Mr. H. u Danforth, agent for, Gen. Tom Thumb, was at the Central yester day. . : . ' .-: i f"' A Qalet and n sterlons Searefc -After election Praads. Mr. H. J. Hay ward.' assistant to the United States District Attorney, who was In this city soma weeks ago for the purpose of investigating alleged elec-1 tion frauds, baa returned, presumably on the same business . What the na ture is of the charges that have been brought to bis attention we have not been able to learn fully, but we under stand that the main source of trpuble springs from the contest between Dockery & Bennett. It is alleged that in Crab Orchard township, this county, ballot box staffing was Indulged in. Mr. Hay ward has already examined several witnesses relative tothis charge, a a. a & a m. - out ono xnigns just as wen pump a dummy as to try to worm anything oat of the quiet old - gentleman. Whether or not he is making any progress in bis Investigation no one knows. Only one thing about him will do to bet on, and that is, he keeps his mouth closed. Mr. Hay ward was noticed promenading the streets yesterday sandwiched between CoL Wm. Johnston and Dr. Norment, and some are disposed to regard this incident as a straw that shows which way the wind blows. Central Motel Arrivals. H Hall.

An Iadependeat Denial front General Gordon . Atlanta. March 28. Ex-Senator Crordon has addressed to the editors of various journals the following letter concerning tne widely published para graph emanating from Jacksonville: Uear sir: A. letter of vour corresoon- aenr, aatea Jacxsonvuie, Jrria. Marcn 22d, is full of misrepresentations, but would be unworthy of notice did It not involve the interests of others. - The baser snd false insinuations contained In a portion of his letter have been so thorouehily disproved and so alsmally rebuked bv the people of Georgia that a neea not recer to tnem. uua state ment that I am no longer a citizen of Georgia is false. I have never contem plated for one moment . a change of residence. His statement that I had regiatered at hotels as of Florida is false and without the semblance of an excuse. His statement that I am candidate for Senator Call's seat or the seat of any one else Is false. On the contrary I am devoting my whole time as a private citizen to my personal In terest ana to the development by legitimate meana of the resources of this section Respectfully yours, i . J.B.
