It is the duty of every voter to keep
himself acquainted with the political
movements of the country that he may
know for whom and for what he votes.—
To do tliis he should be a constant read-
An Englishman, who had visited the
larger portion of Virginia and North
Jarolina, remarked in our hearing that he
had not seen a well-kept yard or garden
in all his travels, and that a people who
took no more pride in the adornment of
their homes could certainly not be very
happy in them. It certainly appears to
us that in a contry where flowers bloom
in the open air eight months in the year,
that it would not be a very difficult mat*
ter to make a beautiful yard and garden.
But wehavo hitherto spoken of the modus
of doing this: now we only propose to
speak of the results that would flow
from it. It will pay.
All observing persons will have noticed
the fact that a city or village lot which is
improved and adorned by walks, lawn,
trees, well arranged gardens, with suita
ble shrubs, flowers, etc., is -worth, and will
sell for a considerable sum in advance of
one equally well located, with no improve
ments of the kind. The same is appli
cable in a higher degree to the farm. The
homestead enadorned is far less sought
for, or prized by the occupants, than the
one where the grounds and surroundings
are tastefully arranged and judiciously laid
out, with grounds planted to fine trees,
vinos, ornamental shrubs and flowers;
a neat and tasteful garden for the produc
tion of the necessary kitchen vegetables,
small fruits, etc., needed in a well ordered
family: all enclosed with tasteful fences.
Such a place, if the only object is to sell
and make money, will sell for double, or
near, one lying along side unadorned
thus. It would seem, then, that it would
bo to the pecuniary interest of the farmer
to make his home attractive, especially
as it may all be done at intervals of leis
ure, and without the outlay of any consid
erable sum of money. But this money
making, only, ought not to be the highest
aim of man; he should have a more
worthy motive. We all acknowledge the
value of money; as society is at present
constituted, it is a necessity, but not
the only necessity. Refinement and cul
ture are essential to our full enjoyment
of life. In what way, better, can these
accomplishments be attained, by a rural
population, than in the study and practice
of such arts as are capable of cultivating
these graces ?
A homestead adorned with trees fruits,
flowers, etc., is one of the most interest
ing objects in nature. Look at it at any
stage, in fruit, flower, or when denuded
of summer foliage, what a scene of beau
ty, or interest to the student of nature;

them continually with fresh and new
terest. The culture of these is a most in
teresting work, when intelligently done,
and necessarily leads the reflecting mind
to the study of the laws of vegetation in
general, as well as to the peculiar habits,
growth, etc., of the kinds we have tho care
of. The constant watching of these, leads
to the observing of the peculiar enemies
of each, which invests us with a knowl
edge of another branch of natural history.
Let, mo then, urge tho importance of
home adornment, in order to cultivate a
taste in, and of training up our children
with a desire for the pursuits of garden
ing, farming, and natural history; pursuits
too little improved in the past by our
farming population.—Southern Planter

The Convention of tho First District
will meet at Blaeksliear (W ay Cross) on
tho 2d of September.
The Second District Convention will
bo held at Albany on the 20th of Au
gust.
The Third District is the only one m
the State whoso Convention-date has not
been named. The Executive Committee
of this district will assemble at Americus
on the 5th of August, to name the time
and plaee.
The Convention of the Fourth District
meets at LaGrange on the 0th of Sep
tember.
The date of the Convention in the
Fifth District has been variously stated,
but Griffin and the 19th of August may
bo relied on. A man will then and there
be named who will bury Mr. Freeman
and social equality under an avalanche of
indignant ballots.
The Convention in tho Sixth will meet
at Milledgeville on the 12th of August,
and its choice will be the senior nominee
of the congressional canvass in thiB
State.
The unprecedented preliminary cam
paign in the Seventh will culminate at
Calhoun on the 2d of September.
A host of aspirants in tho Eighth will
test their relative strength at Augusta on
the 2d of September.
The Ninth closes its nomination books
at Cleaveland, White country, on the 19th
of August. , . .
Except in General Phil. Cooks district
there is an animated contest inevery
county in the State; and a district that
does not contain at least a half dozen
aspirants is accounted slow. It is, how
ever, a wholesome and legitimate com
petition that will everywhere result in
harmony and a vigorous prosecution of
the subsequent work—even in the episto
lary Seventh-
Selling Chinese Girls.
Officers McKenna and Hutton arrested
a Chinese female named Loi Ho on a
charge of misdemeanor in dealing in hu
man flesh. She is charged with dispos
ing of a young Mongolian damsel named
Ah Cheung, through the instrumentality
of an individual termed “middle man,”
named Ah Loke, to another Chinese bel
dame named Ah Foil for $200. The bill
of sale which legalized the transaction
has been translated by an interpreter, as
follows: „
Lio Ho makes this distinct agreement
sell one, because of her present distress,
having no money to nse, but having a girl
named Ah Cheung aged thirteen years,
bom in the first month of the year, the
twentieth day, at two o’clock a. m. Now
Loi Ho is willing to sell this girl to an
other person to get money to use. The
middle man, Ah Loke, finds Qui Foh
willing to buy her. The three persons
(Loi Ho, Qui Foh and Ah Loke) face to
face distinctly determine the price of her
body to be $200. From the day of this
agreement, the money being all paid in
rresence of all, Loi Ho with her own
rands having received the money, tho
girl and the money both exchange hands
Qui Foh make the Ah Cheung .for her
own until she is grown up to full size
This is true money and a true bargain.
No other person has any part in it. That
there may be proof of this, Loi Ho makes
this bill of sale; one paper, and gives it
to Qui Foh to receive and keep for
proof.
(Signed by) Loi Ho,
Her finger*mark.
The girl is willing to testify to the fore
going state of facts. It is charged that
the matter is a conspiracy, and that Loi
Ho is herself a chattel and indebted to
her master in a large sum, and it is with
view to settle the indebtedness that the
case has been brought.—Sun Francisco

ENGLISH LACES.
Some specimen of English laces were
shown at the South Kensington exhibi
tion this year, tho tliread of which cost
$800 per pound. Much of this tliread
had to bo wasted, not being sufficiently
perfect. The threads of these and other
laces are so attenuated that the slightest
motion in tho air foils the worker, and
even when this is imperceptible, a north
wind has the same effect So gossamer-
like are some of the filaments, that separ
ate threads are almost undistinguishable
to the naked eye, unless backed by col
or.
A policeman in Detroit heard that
eitizen had been badly injured, and he
called at tho house to obtain particulars
He found the man lying on the lounge,
with his head bound up, and his face
badly scratched. He asked: “What
the matter? Did he get run over, or fall
down stairs?” “No, not exactly,” replied
his wife; “but ho wanted to run the house
his way, and I wanted to nm it my way
and there he is.”
In his address to the Indiana Demo
cratic Convention, Gov. Hendricks, its
presiding officer, had this to say about
the “dead Democracy :”
The gentleman who presided over the
Republican Convention felt it his duty to
say that two years ago I had proclaimed
the death of the Democratic party. Oh,
no! I had said that we turn our backs
upon the past, and stand in the present,
and look forward to the great future;
that the future is ours, and that in it the
people should achieve that full measure
of prosperity and happiness which it is in
their power to secure. The dead issues
of the past do not furnish our animating
sentiments. The principles of free govern
ment and the usages essential to preserve
liberty are of the present, as of tho past,
and must be of the future. It is interest
ing to hear the orators assuring their fol
lowers that the Democratic party is dead.
It establishes one’s genius for originality.
It has not been repeated more than one
million times, and each time the followers
laugh and cheer. They are so glad the
Democracy is dead. They wish it, but
feel that it is not so. The laugh and
cheer aro hollow and without joy. If
they were sure of it, they would say kind
and generous things of so great and pow
erful an organization. It is not brave
or noble to strike even a dead lion. But
a few years since they boasted that the
Democrats had no Governor in the Nora
them States and but few in the South:
but now there are Democratic Governors
in New Hampshire, Connecticut, Dela
ware, Maryland, Ohio, Indiana, Wiscon
sin, Oregon, Kentucky, Missouri, Ten
nessee, Virginia, Georgia and Texas. Ar
kansas may now be added to the list of
Democratic States, for the bands who
corrupted the ballot l>ox are broken and
scattered. Organizations may be broken
and pass away, but Democracy cannot
die. It is endowed with the immortality
of truth and right. Wherever, in all lands,
men aspire to higher, freer, better govern
ami pur?? bbfTty; Trfrercver there
is the sentiment that government is made
for man aud not man for government,
there is the spirit of Democracy that will
endure and yet achieve man s enfranchise
ment and elevation.
Atlanta Conunonneath: We are glad to
se? that the press of this State are de
bating the question of biennial sessions,
as suggested by us some two months
since. If they would also approve of a
reduction of our Senators and Re-
preaenttativee we would be striking at re
form in the right direction. Instead of
saving one hundred thousand dollars per
annum, we would save over two hundred
thousand, and secure bettor and more
wieldly bodies. The Senate of Georgia
should not exceed twenty-four, and the
House of Representatives seventy five,
members. Limit the sessions to sixty
days, and the pay of members to $5 per
diem, and we would be on the right road
to retrenchment. We have too many
salaried officers. Our Judges of the Su
perior Court are too numerous. The cir
cuits are too small, and require, with one
or two exceptions, about one-half, and,
in some instances, not more than one
third, of the year to hold their courts, yet
they aro paid large salaries and the peo
pie have to foot the bills. There are
many other officers in the State whose
services could l>e dispensed with, and

soon as that mule finds out that some
one in this cold world loves him he will
be a different mule.
All mules kick, my dear sir, just as all
men love to hold a fat office, but there s
a remedy for it. Get an old stove boil
er, fill it with bricks, and hang it by a
rope so that it will just swing against the
animal’s he'-ls. Every time he kicks it
will fl}’ back, like the pendulum of a clock,
and the patience of the most enduring
mrde will, in time, wear out. I tried this
once, and the mule kicked twenty-four
days and nights before he surrendered,
but after that you might run a steamboat
on his heels, and he wouldn’t raise a
hoof.
Feed your mule well. I know of farm
ers who throw a keg of nails or an old
sap-pan into tho manger, and expect a
mule to grow fat on such forage, but it
embitters their feelings and makes ’em
more set in their ways. Of course I
don't say that you must feed a mule on
fried eggs, currant jelly, raisin cake, and
the like of that, but don’t expect ho can
feed on rails and feel enthusiastic all the
time.

Col. S. B. Spencer is the Mayor of the
city of Atlanta. About six months ago
the city of Atlanta was compelled to as«
sume payment of a mortage of $60,000
on the Capitol building, which H. I. Kim
ball had given. The city of Atlanta had
paid the mortgage once before, when it
gave Kimball her bonds for $100,000. As
a consequence, she was tho victim of a
fraud, perpetrated by H. I. Kimball, when
she was forced to assume the mortgage.
Is it true that Col. S. B. Spencer, May
or of the city thus defrauded by H. I.
Kimball, has signed a petition asking the
Federal authorities to appoint H. I. Kim
ball to a responsible position, in which he
will have the handling of large sums of
money.—Atlanta Fen's.

An “enchanted park" iu Colorado is
thus described by the Denver Minor:
“It is a beautiful valley about a mile in
length, availed in on either side by per
pendicular walls from 200 to 300 feet in
height There is but one entrance to
this enchanted spot, and that is a very
nigged and dangerous pathway, and a
footman experiences great difficulty iu
the descent Upon reaching tho valley
we could hear rustling of the wind
through the lofty pines on the cliffs a-
bove us, sounding like the roar of some
devastating hurricane, while the grass
beneath our feet lay as calm and still as
death. Not even the slightest breath of
air could be felt. Everything was so still
that a person standing at the lower part
of the valley could distinctly comprehend
persons speaking at the upper end.'
