This distinguished gentleman, who
will favor the citizens of Baldwin county
With one of his brilliant Lectures on
Friday evening next, (20th inst) in the
Ohl Senate Chamber of the Capitol Build-
ing, deserves more ilian a common notice
in our columns.
•John Godfrey Saxe, L. L. D., is a na
tive of Vermont; was graduated at Mid-
dlebnry College in 1839; was admitted to
jhe Bar in 1843. entering npon the prac
tice of his profession at St. Alhans. I n
1850, he removed to Burlington, and for
five years conducted ‘ The Sentinel" news
pai»er of that city with great tibilitv and
success. AUibone, in his great “Diction
ary of Authors," says of Mr. Saxes: ‘The
discharge of the duties of his profession
has been occasionally relieved by literary
lectures, and (if this can lie called a relief)
by some attention to politics. In both
capacities he has prospered: his lectures
ask cnowTiEin he has been State’s Attor
ney and Deputy Collector of Customs,
and was some time since the Democratic
candidate for Govefnor of Vermont.”
Surely Georgians may well extend a warm
welcome ton patriot who has held fast to
Ins Democratic integrity in Republican
> ermont in the last ten years of Radical
ascendancy and misrule!
But Mr. Saxe visits us not as a politi
cian, but as a literary gentleman, and a
lecturer. His Lectures have drawn crowd
ed houses in the largest cities of the
I. nited States, and in Europe also. A
leading London journal says of him. “We
cannot but rejoice over the genuine and
catholic humor of John Godfrey Saxe.
^ e are sore that Milledgeville will attest
its appreciation of this great humorist,
aud secure to its appreentive citizens the
heartiest series of laugh in many a long
flay, by turning out next Friday evening
to hear the Lecture of Mr Saxe. He
will lecture the one evening only—lias-
tening forward to meet engagements in
Augusta. He was prevailed ..1 to give
us a call by a letter from o. vwfliy May
or and a number of our leading citizens.
The entrance fee is fixed at only 50 cents.
See advertisement in another column.
Air. Saxe’s poems, sparkling with won
droiiB wit and polish, are read admiringly
wherever the English language is known.
He is, par excellence, the Tom Hood of
America; and whoever reads one of his
books, or listens to one of his lectures,
may feel assured of a rich fund of enjoy
ment and of mirth. Mr. Saxe is the au
thor of numerous published books, all
occupying high rank in the literature of
the English Language.
Col. Sneed, of the Atlanta Herald, J
seems to be of the opinion that the First 1 npf ^ -a. 1 1
Congressional District needs a good deal L 6Jt 01? C
of* outside help, and propones to give
Democrats down this wav some of that,'
advice for which he is distinguished. This
is somewhat hopeful, for, notwithstanding
the fact that the Colonel has endeavored,
from a nearer point of view than Atlanta,
to rescue the District, it is m<fre than
probable tliat these remoter labors to
which ho-has pledged himself will Imtnore
effectual. Distance sometimes lends en
ckantment to the view.
The bunko business in Atlanta has a-
roused Col. Grady from liis temporary
inactivity, and he is pursuing the manip
ulators of the game with an exegetical
vindictiveness that leads us to believe
that he also hath suffered.
Loclirane—he of the wanton smile—

Almost a Fire; Quite.
4s h prayer-meeting v.as in progress
about mid day in the Methodist Church
last Sunday, Col. C. P. Crawford (one of
the congregation) discovered that the
church building was on fire. The stove
pipe near the South-western corner of
the building, becoming over heated, hail
ignited the adjacent wood. Quite a live
ly blaze was ascending between the
weatherboarding and the ceiling. The
congregation resolved itself into a lire
company in the most unceremonious and
impromptu manner; buckets, wash tubs
and other vessels with water were brought
from adjacent dwellings; anil the liames
were extinguished while the -vigilant
Fire Company was donning its rcd-jack-
ets: Not without strenuous efforts, how
ever, and a doubtful contest for a brief
season, with the fire-fiend. Fortunately
the day was rainy: otherwise, the result
might have been different.
The whole system of pushing stove
pipes through walls of wooden buildings
ought to be abandoned It is a standing
invitation to the fire-fiend. Build good
brick flues which shall extend high above
the roofs of the buildings.
Valentine Vox.
Such is the pseudonym of the ventril
oqnal showman, who appealed among
us last week; an evident pseudonym, yet
all sufficient, inasmuch as mystery, of
itself, lends a charm.
Vox, as would be inferred by Latin
ists, has a wonderful voice. He is a ven
triloquist of more than ordinary powers.
This feature in his exhibition is calcula
ted to interest all who witness them—the
scientific, and the fun-loving merely. His
ventriloqual feats are wonderful to all;
yet modem investigation show3 they are
attainable, by sufficient training, to almost
all. They were known to the ancient
Greeks, and were considered the instru
ments of demons, under the designation
of engastrimanteis.
This exhibition is accompanied by a
hand organ of mighty size aud of mighty
history. It is said to have been manu
factured at the order of the Swiss Can
tons aud presented to the hero of Swiss
independence, William Tell, out of grati •
tude. Gratitude is a good thing; so is
this venerable organ with its tinkling
cymbal like resonances. The sp 'ted dog
is a canine wonder: So also, he mes
merized boy. Vox is a gen—- -■ “brick,
highly lienevolent, too. He devoted a
large share of his proceeds to the benefit
of Sunday Schools in our city—handing
over the money in the presence of the
multitude, to our excellent Ordinary of
Baldwin county. Vox will exhibit in
Hawkinsville on Saturday the 21st inst.
Vive. Valentine Vox!
Catholic Church.
The very handsome Catholic Church
building in our city rapidly approaches
completion. We glean the following facts
in relation to it from a conversation with
Mr. E. T. Ailing the accomplished archi
tect who phinned it and has the work in
charge.
The Church is situated on the ft- W-
corner of Jefferson and Hancock Btreets.
and ia a very elegant brick structure, 50
fiat in length and 90 feet wide. The ceiling
ia 21 feet above the floor, curved at the
angle of inters action with the walls, and
ft gallery, 9 feet in width, extends across
the end of the building removed from the
pulpit. The height of the steeple is-60
feet It will aefti eonfortably over 150
jeraona. The building was commenced
in October last end witt be completed
abont tfafe middle of April. Its cost will
aggregate about $4,000.
The warehousemen of Macon are still
refusing to accept for almost everybody i Man-if l.i, i87L
who applies. Not one in forty gets ac-
oommodation, and not one in fifty com |
pared with last year. The planters will
have to scuffle out as best they can with
out the usual favors, Many of them are
dreaming that they can make arrange
ments late in the season, and are pitch
ing crops accordingly, but they are pret
ty apt to be mistaken in their calculation.
The factors are as cold as a toad to them.

The knell sf death has again pealed forth in our
community its sad notes ot woe, aud heart-strings
strained to their utmost tension have swept asunder,
under the violence of the stroke, and there would be
no tones if joy in the mournful refrain, but for tbe
voice, .’’Bleieed are the dead, who die iu the Lord,
for they rttf from their labors.”
Died to Marietta, February 36th, Mrs. Martha O-
Hall, ywuagcst daughter of tbe late Augustas Kenan
of this fltty. Married iu early womanhood to Dr-
HartleyfuU.tbe man of her choioe, life waa toftbt
with lesslali n only to be too soon crushed by a,
seiies of afflictions, w hich finally culminated in the
eutire loss of health. Fdr several years an invalid,
she wended on her pathway to the grave under great
suffering.—Lovely to ail the retotioae of Ufe, who* m

then tbs reflex image of her ttavfcur ebooe forth, and

ber life, Mrs.?liii McAli wtxr Drsuiuo, widow
of S 6 Donning of Savannah, and only surviving
sister ot the late U. M Orme of this city
It ia the teudeocy of affection when death claims for
its own the loved ones of earth to magnify their vfr-
tuea and in fniseme praise to eulogize departed worth.
No such memorial would we bring to her who hnsjust
named away. The simple and beaotifnl encomium nf
theSaviour “ She Lath fanc what ike could" Is one
Mrs Itonniug richly deserved, and the many who
knew her but to love in the different borne circles of
Savannah, Milledgeville and Augusta will feel its sin
gular appropriateness. Heis was a choice combina
tion of qualities fitting ber to give happiness to those
around her. Nobly hath she dona her part. That
rare gift, common sense, combined with graces of mind
and person, sanctified by a loog life devoted to her
Master's service made her what she was to her many
friends Neither the smiles of s capricious fortune
nor the sterner school of adversity (both of which had
severely tested her) ever made her swerve from the
naili of duty. Her piety, not the occasional ornament
of the boor, was deeply inwrought in her very being,
daily exemplifying itselt iu acts of charity and love.
“A succwer ot saints”—*’ the sympathizing frieod”—
the devotod mother. In a good old age we lay her
down to her rest, feeling her “works will follow her”—
•* her children arise up and .-all her blessed.” ‘ Give
her the fruits of her bauds, and let her own works
praise her in the gates.'

same year she ioiaad the Methodiri Church.* From
that day she steadily “followed on to know the Lord’’—
growing in the grace and in tbe knowledge of our Lord
and Savior J ml* Cb’ist. Her ornament was that of a
*- meek and qaiet spirit.” She was the pattern of
nuiformity and regularity in attendance oa the means
of grace. It is doubted if she was abaaot from church
