THE DAILY SUN. Monday Mousing July 31 SUN-STROKES. The woman question -What’s he worth ? 9&* u There ia much waste in life,” says a writer, but lie had no reference to the in tuts of some of our belles. Way* A woman in New York goes to the l>enitentiaiy two yours for being unable to pay her board. BQX.. Bowen cun subside. An Indiana clergyman lias been found who had seven wires and there arc twenty-seven States to hear from. As soon as Butler gets sober enough “ho will publish a manifesto, planting himself squarely on the prohib itory platform." Hs$r “Women in arms 1" exclaimed Pogue, laying aside the morning pa per—“they are always welcome to be in my arms." “There has been nothing like Grant’s Ban Domingo message since the days of Jaekson, ’exclaims Bimon Cameron. The public is unable to discern anything like in, or before tko days of Jackson. Way* - The New York Globe intimates that “we have more gospel than we know what to do with." That is true when we consider the kind that most ^prevails in somo localities. &2>“- There is nothing like getting into the papers correctly. Tho New York Herald of tho 27th says: “H. J. Kimbull, of Savannah, Georgia, is stopping at the Fifth Avenue Hotel." Some of the Eastern papers have lmd tho report that Ben Butler was drowned. The story was a most improb able one, for Butler is so gassy that if all tho spoons he took away from Now Or leans were crammed into his pockets he would still float. flay-The Philadelphia Age says: * ‘When tho cholera is raging in ono part of tho world, tho yellow fever in another and the small-pox in a third, it is important that our quarantine laws should be rigid ly enforced.” The Age appears to forgot that the fourth quarter has its peculiar nllliction in the official person of Grant. THE NEW AMERICAN POET* It is announced that General But ler has “promised, if he should be nom inated and elected, and if Boston should cast its vote against him, to mako that city os hot for rumscllers as he made New Orleans for Rebels." He evidently means to leave not a spoon for the “rum sellers" to stir their toddies with. It is said that Phil Sheridan was made a LL. D. on account of his know ledge of cannon law.” Pogue says he thought it was on account of his know ledge of the use of friction matches, to gether with the dexterity with which he kills old Indian men and women and little Indian babies. A correspondent says: “Though Quakers do notdesire for themselves music and singing of hymns in their worship, yet Dr. Painter’s family, because they find manic attractive to the Indians, play and sing with them with much spirit.”— Which goes to prove thnt tho poet correct when lie said, “Music lmth charms to sootho the savage breast." The New York Tribune says: “Mr. William Dugan, once a Democratic mem ber of the Board of Education in Cleve land, Ohio, has been sent to tho House of Correction for confirmed drunkenness and incurable vagrancy." The Tribune neglects to mention that Dugan joined the Radicals some years since, which his first step down, and his course has been steadily downward ever since. Tho Louisville Courier-Journal says, “All of the editorial articles of Mr. Stephens in The Atlanta Sun are signed 'A. H. S.’ This is uuusal, but as the other oditors of The Sun are unwilling to be regarded tyi palitical lunatics, it is well enough.” It needs no distinction marks of this kind to designate tho ’‘po litical lunatics" of Courier-Journal, ns they can be traced in every editorial and paragraph in tho paper. Act?* Speaking of Akormau’s mission to North Carolina, tho New York Sun (Radical) says: “He has no more light to interfere with tho question of remodel ling the Constitution of North Carolina than ho has to dictate who shall be Pre mier of England." The Sun apparently loses sight of the fact that Grant, Aker- man, cl <d, have adopted tho following couplet os their motto: ••No pent np Utic*contracts onr powers. But the whole boundless coutiuent in ours." ted Messrs. E. & H. T. Anthony, of New York, have made a most interest ing and valuable contribution to art, by the collection nud publication of a very large and magnificent Rories of stereo- Rcopio views of the Yosemito Valley, and other noted scenery in the grand Western part of America. These views are from photographs by an artist scut out by the firm named above, and they are gotten up in a style superior to anything American or foreign that has yet found its way to Atlanta. In the list are found views of the famous Yosomite Valley, with its im mense water-falls, deep nvines and high mountains, and those vast trees which are so great a marvel that it was long after their discovery before tbe public would believe the stories told about them. The series of views is the largest ever pub lished, and they bring before tho eye correct representations of natural scenery which, for beauty and grandeur, has no equal in the world. The Messrs. Antho ny deserve the thanks of the public for their great enterprise, and consequent ex pense, in getting out this set of views. They aro large, beautifully printed and superbly mounted, and ore worth very much more than the price at which they are put upon the market. These views are for sale by Messrs. Phillips t Crew, of this city. Joaqiiim Miller. Tho London Saturday Review has a long critical articlo upon the poems of Joaquim Miller, uu American, hitherto unknown, who has created a sensation in London. It says A now poet has come to us from a now country. Our present impression of Cal ifornia literature, possibly founded on an imperfect acquaintance, is that up to this time it has been principally corn posed of journals ami mining reports. The pioneers of the far west nave been much too busy’in getting gold, clearing forests, and exterminating Indians, griz zly bears and each other, to find much time for literature, especially for litera ture of an imaginative sort. “Where this was written," soys tho author, “rhym ing i8 conside.ed a mild tyno of insan ity." In a preface, which is at once modest and candid, Mr. Miller tells us how and where his pooms were com posed : “These lines were written on the rough edges of tho frontier, amid the scenes de scribed, where I have spent all but the lost few months of my life. There walled from tho world by soas on ono hand, and the Sierra Nevada mountains in savage grandeur on the other, tho heart would sometimes hunger after a gentler life, and the soul go out after tho sweet ideal, a dove ou tho waters, and bring back dreams, and with them clothe foots and tales taken from the lips of moun tain men as they sat and told them around their camp and cabin fires. Of such cre ation are these songs. “The city of Mexico was my Mecca, and San Francisco to mo a marvel of mag nificence and civilization. This last sum mer I crossed the Rocky Mountains, and for the first time saw Now York; a great place for cheap books, and a big den of small thieves." We quote tlicso prefatory lines because they explaiu better than anything clso could the nature of tho, volume. What ever tho faults of stylo which disfigure Mr. Miller’s poems—and they are many and flagrant—there can be no doubt that he possesses the genuino poetic faculty. Ho writes because ho can not help it—tho best reason of all—perhaps the only jus tifiable reason for composing pootry.— Tho snowy Sierra and two tropical canon, tho roving, adventurous borderer’s life, tho stirring tales of hunt and foray, all tlicso supplied materials pregnant* with romanco and poetry, and only required to bo transmuted iuto words. This Mr. Miller has attempted, and tho fact that his lines glow with tropical passion, and that his descriptions transport ns in im agination to the scenes among which they were composed, compel us to forgive him for the lawlessness with which ho tram- pels on tho conventional limitations of art. Tho poems aro but seven in number, and among them the first two are, to onr mind, considerably tho best. Tho first is entitled “Arizonian,” and is a tale told by a gold digger to an English ’squire.— Ho describes his lonely hut in tho west ern gold region: The pines bow'd over, the stream bent under The cabin covered with thatches of palm; Down in a canon so deep, the wopder Was what it could know in its clime but calm. Down in a canon so cleft asunder By sabor stroke in tho young world’s prime, It looked as if broken by bolts of thunder, Rivou and driven by turbulent time. And this is tho land whoro tho sun goes down, And gold is gathered by tido and by stream. And maidens are browu as the cocoa brown, And life in a love, and love Is a dream; W’hcre tho winds come in from the far Cathay, With odor of spices and balm and bay, and summer abideth for aye and aye. Nor comes in a tour with tno stately June, And cornea too late and returns too soon. His only companion is an Indian girl, who had saved his life in a desert of New Mexico, and who had followed him here. It is the sultry eve of a great thunder storm, the take of gold has been lighter than usual. He was fretted, and thought lessly let slip iu her presence the confes sion that it was for the lovo and remem brance of an English maiden that he had been toiling all these years. Hot, angry words follow; tho storm is brewing, and tho thunder pealing ominously among the crags far overhead, but she stands proudly aloof by the torrent brink and refuses to seek tho shelter of the cabin, till at last (but we must not spoil the description): (he air web heavy, Ami hot aud thrcat’niug ; tho very heaven Wan holding itn breath ; and booit iu a bevy Hid under my thatch ; and bird* were driven Iu clouds to the rocks lu a hurried whirr Aft I peer’d down by tlio path for her. Sho stood like a bronze bent over the river, The proud eyes fix’d, the passion unspoken. When the heavens broke liko a groat dyke broken ; Tbeu, cro I fairly bad time to give her A shout of warning, a nulling of wind Aud the rolling of clouds with a deafening din, Aud a darkness that bad been black to the blind, Canle down, as I shouted •• Como iu J como inJ Como under tho roof, come up from the river, As up from a grave—como now, or come never!" mol'd tops of the pines were as weeds, d woods rock'd like to lake side reeds, Aud tho world seem’d darken’d aud drown’d forever. Ono fearful, dream-like vision of her, with lifted hands aud “wild wide eyes," as tho flood burst aud “ caught her hair as the flax in a wheel," and then uotbiug more till the next morning, when ho wakes from a nightmare sleep and rushes to tho river, whence the flood had gono, Idkc a thief, with only hi« tracks upon The weeds aud glasses aud warm wot sand. He hurries on, culling as he runs, to the cauou’s mouth, and (hero at last ho ilnds her lying “iu the surge where tho waters met." lie gathers up his hoarded gold and turns lus face eastward, always haun ted by tho vision of that terrible night, to seek the English girl for whom ho had sacrificed the dark-skinned maiden who loved him so well. After long wander ings lie reached his native town, and there ho sees standing at evening with her pitcher by the old town pump, tho form that he so well remembers. The time which had furrowed his brow aud grizzled his beard had wrought no change iu her faco ; a doubt crosses his brain as ho remembers the scoro of years that had passed by, but bo cannot be mistaken iu those features. He steps nearer, but she does not recognize him : So I lifted my voice, md 1 spoke aloud: •Annette, my darling! Annette Maclood I" She started, *bc stooped, she turn’d, amazed, Hho Ht4>«*l all with wouder, with lu rcyea wild-wld". Then turned In terror down the dark wayaidc; And cried an ahe lied: “The inau ia crazed, Aud cal la tho maiden name of my mother." Thero is no need to tell tho story fur ther, or to repoat tho woary. sa.1 refrain of “ Vanitat raniMum," with which the broken man introduces and ends his talc. With Walker in Nicarauga” is a pas sionate story of lovo aud adventure. The poem is a very lino one, and contains ono passage which is peiliiqw the best thing in tlio wholo book, snd wksck it is im possible to resist adding to our quota tions, though we fear that they have al ready stretched too great a length. Tho following lines form part of a description of a ride through a tropical forest: The tree* iihook hinds high overhead, ALd bow’d aud Intertwined aero* Tho narrow way, white leave* and mom And luscious fruit, goldhuod and red, Through thft cool esuopy of green, Let not one aunehait shoot between. Birds hung and swung, green-robed snd rod. Or droop’d iu curved huee dreamily, Hainbowe reversed, from tree to tree. Or eang low-hanging overhead— Kang low, as if they eang and eltnt. Bang faint, like some far waterfall. And took no note of ua at aU, Though ripe nuta crushed at every step. How rau the monkeys through the leavce! How rush'd they through, browu-clad and blue. Like ihatUee burned through and through The thread* * hasty weaver weaves! How quirk they cast us fruits of gold, Then loosen'd hand and all foothold, And hung limp, limber, as if dead, Hung low snd listless overhead; And all the time, with half-oped eyes Bent full on us in mute surprise, Look’d wisely, too, as wise hens do, That watch you with the head askew. Aud walk d aud talk'd and hung and swung, In crown of gold and coat of blue, The widest fool that ever sung, Or had a crown, or held a tongue. Tho wholo poem glows with tkepossi' aud ardor of youth. Wo aro earriod i iu loose, swinging, vigorous lines, whioh tell of tho victorious march of the adveu turers, the discovery of tho hoary tempi of the sun buried deep within tho quinine wood, the rest in the white walled city by the sea, the long, sweet days of rapturous love. Then oornes the reverse; tho enemy swoops down on tho unsuspecting oity, tho remnant of the little band are driven bleeding to the sea, and scarcely escape in their boats; the hapless Monteznman maid, who hod been parted from her lov er in his harried flight, tries to follow bis ship, but her tiny boat upsets whilo she is trying in vain to attract his attention, and it is only tho next morning that he hears from a rough seaman of her death. UEOKGIA IS KWH. Augusta couuts up hor $10,651,470 worth of property and is happy. A Jockey Club has been organized in Augusta. Savannah is having yacht raoee. Ynclu’s what’s the matter.'' In the examination at the United States Nuval Academy, A. C. Hodgson, of Ath ens, stood third in a class of forty. Mr. P. H. Brannon, a young lawyer of ability, formerly of Columbus, has been employed as editor of the Cronicla, pub lished in Cleburne, Texas. Tho Bainbridgo Argus says cotton is opening very fast in that vicinity, and thinks there will be new cotton in tho market very soon. Eev. Samuel H. Higgins, D. D., of Bal timore, has been called to the pastorate of the LaGrango Presbyterian Church, so says tho Reporter. Tho Athens Banner expects a largo crowd of negroes to visit Athens this week. They have heard that tho Alumni are coming, and arc saving their cosh in order “to seodat show.” The Macon Telegraph and Messenger says: Chas. Obediah Johnson, a notori ous Griffin scallawag, lias sued the At lanta Sun for $25,000 worth of defama tion of character. If he gets 25 oents he will realize at least 100 per cent, on his oapital stock of that description. Tho Waynesboro Ejiositor of tho 29th says: On Tuesday last, a negro man, by tlio name of Kelly, in the employment of Mr. James Barrett, assaulted, with a pis- pil, Mr. Haygood, overseer for tho same gentleman. The negro was serionsly wounded. Tho Talbotton Standard of tlio 27th says: Mr. Joo Williams, living near this place, had his hands nearly burned off, on last Sunday night, by astral oil. He was attempting to fill a lamp near anoth er which was lighted, and the oil ignited, and, in his confusion, he turned tho oil over and it came in contact with his hands. The Central Railroad and Banking Company has subscribed $5,000 to the Industrial Association of Savannah, and promises to give $5,000 more if tho city will toko stock to the amount of $10,000. Tho Fair begins third Tuesday in Novem ber. Gen. Breckinridge has been select ed orator. The Columbus Sun says: The crops iu Muscogee and Stewart counties are re ported os doing well. In Stewart about half a corn crop will be made and a three- quarter one of cotton. The cotton looks well, but the stand is poor. In tho ad joining Alabama counties rain is needed. Corn thero is very good, cotton about tho same as in the Georgia counties. We were very sorry to hear yesterday, says tho Columbus Enquirer of tho 28th, ns we did from a friend jnst from Macon, that Mr. Thomas W. Sehoonmaker, for merly a citizen of Columbus, hod, a few days ago, in a moment of depression aud desperation, shot himself in tho head in such a manner os to placo him boyond all hopes of recovery. A Pike county correspondent of tho Macon Telegraph and Messenger says: Our crops look well considering the disad vantages they have been subjected to in the shape of rain and grass. The farm ers are generally rid of the grass, and cotton seems to bo doing ns well now ns it can. Tho corn in this section is need ing rain, and should it visit us this week there witl be an abundance of tho cereal made. Clovor culture is becoming a sub ject of earnest consideration with our farmers; many aro raising it successfully, and many nioro will commence it another season. The writer cut a fine crop of hay from some sown tho 22d of February last on his wheat, and the after-moth bids fair for another good cutting before winter.

The Selma Times' found him first, and according to tho Times hero ho is: Wo once knew a private in the Con* federate army by tho name of Taliaferro, who hailed from Baltimore, who was a camp follower and skulker, and who helped to murder five Yankee prisoners near Madison, Georgia, in November, 18f>4, and we would not be surprised if this fellow was the very man. For his sworn statements to the Outrage Com mittee are just in consonance with the head and heart of a man who would cowardly take to the woods, tied five prisoners who had surrendered them selves, and put a pistol to their heads and murdered them.
