PUBLIC MEN OF ALABAMA.
We Lave before us the handsome vol-
nmo bearing the title set forth above,
wliich we mentioned in the last number
of this paper as one of the productions
of the late Stephen F. Miller, Esq.
As mentioned heretofore, the material
for this handsome and entertaining vol
ume were furnished by its avowed author,
Mr. William Garrett, late Secretary of
State of Alabama. Mr. Garrett’s name
appears as its author. But Maj. Miller’s
ready genius molded these materials into
the pleasing shape they present to the
reader in the line octavo volume of 809
pages, now before us.
This volume is an important one con
sidered as a contribution to the history
of Alabama, and of the whole South.—
The personal sketches of prominent men
of Alabama are so intermingled with their
public acts as to illustrate most success
fully the history of their times. Gov
ernmental affairs are necessarily brought
under review ; and the range of informa
tion embraces likewise appropriate no
tices of prominent persons among the
statesmen, the military men, the journal
ists, the literary men and women, and all
other prominent actors on the stage of
life, dining the long period the book pre
sents to our view.
Many distinguished Alabamians, who
were natives of our noble Georgia are
mentioned in the volume, and with choer-
fol award of all due honor to their cher
ished names. Of these, in the literary
lino, we can mention but one, viz: the
well known Augusta J. Evans (now Wil
son) the gifted author of Beulah, St. El
mo, Vashti, &c.; and in the role of Ala
bama’s living statesmen and lawyers, Col.
John W. A. Sanford, a native of our city.
The sketch of Col. Sanford in this vol
ume is one of considerable length and is
exceedingly interesting. A native of Mil-
lodgeville, his collegiate education was
received at Oglethorpe University in our
vicinity, now converted into our popular
“Talmage School"; and he obtained his
professional education at Dane Law Col
lege of Harvard University at Cambridge,
Massachusetts. He was an elector on
the Buchanan ticket in the Presidential
contest of 18.51!; advocated the Breck
inridge ticket in 1860 ; served gallantly
through the War between the States as
Colonel of an Alabama liegiment; and
since the War, he has been elected Attor
ney General of tho State of Alabama.
iTlie reader should see the volume where
r . is sketch appears at length; and in
deed the contents of the entire book,
cannot fail to interest him.

THE HESSIANS.
Our forefathers of the Revolutionary
era had in all their vituperative vocabu-
laiy, no word of reproach greater than
//‘ p -,7r* ■ A hireling soldier, sold by
ince to the cruel monarch of Brit
nd sent hither to ravage and to kill
•atriots struggling for independence
how immeasurable the contempt and
rired hurled on him! A curious revela
tioi'xof the estimate in which the hireling
HesAian soldier was held by his own
Prince- is brought to light in a recent ar-
ticle m Litt-ell's hieing Age of October 3.
1871. The article embraces a letter en
tire from the Prince of Hesso-Cassel to
the Commander of the Hessian troops in
America, in which officers are censured for
the small number of their troops slain in
battle, and correcting the under estimate
of the slain in certain battles in the Eng
lisli reports. The sharpness and vigor
with which this is done shows how
thoroughly the Prince looked to the nnm
her of slain in a “business” light. And
well lie might; for he received for every
man furnished, only §21, and for every
one slain. §140. So ho had a nett gain
of §119 on the killing of each Hessian!
No wonder he reprimanded his officers
for the shocking absence of mortality
among the men! Just think of a poor
Prince losing §119 on each soldier who
escaped with his life at the end of a bat
tie!
Littell's Living Age in which this article
is found, is replete with gatherings from
t’re leading European periodicals. The ex
quisite serial story “Far from the Mad
ding Crowd” is continued thrillingly in
the number before us; and numerous
other articles present themselves on its
pages. Among these, Motley's Borne
velt, Perception of tho Invisible, Life of
Flowers, and Future of Royalty, are es
pecially charming. The Living Age is a
weekly. W. G. M.
EXCHANGING SEX.
We find in one of our contemporary
journals a quotation from the famous
French author. Montaigne, as follows:
“I would not be a woman, for then I
could not love her"; and in juxtaposition
therewith, the saying of the celebrated
Lady Mary Worthy Montagu. “The only
objection I have to being a man is, that I
should then have *o marry a woman.”
We aro reminded by these sayings of a
remark uttered in our hearing a few years
since by the brilliant and beautiful Eppie
Bowdre Castlen of Macon (now Mrs.
Sturm,) in Washington City. The fair
lady was seated at a dinner table between
the writer hereof and one of the Virgin
ian Senators in the U. S. Congress, in the
summer of 1870. Many distinguished
gentlemen of national reputation were in
hearing; and the conversation assumed a
gay and humorous character, veiy natural
ly, among those immediately surrounding
the lady. Something was said of tho
‘ W Oman's Rights” movement, and the
Virginian Senator asked the brilliant
Georgian lady, “Do you not wish you
were a man? She replied, instantly,
“No, sir: I would not be a man for any
consideration!” “Why?” he inquired.
‘Because,” she instantly replied, “I should
always be making myself a fool about
some pretty woman.” The applause
following, the remark was unbounded;
and from that time forth, the fair Chiqui-
ta’s sojourn in the Federal Capital was
an ovation. The great photographer
Brady sought her, and made the most
exquisite photographs of her; and the
bon mot was the “sensation” for several
days. We consider it quite as pithy as
that of Lady Mary Wortley Montagu,
or of Montaigro, given above.

White Cliff Springs, Tenn.)
Sept 19,1874. j
We were received, with true mountain
hospitality by Mr. Hitower and scent tho
evening pleasantly. On the next morn
ing we set out early to return to the river
for the purpose of getting shells. Our
efforts to find Bell-town, were now crown
cd with success. We were almost des
pairing, when a horse-rack burst into
view, which together with a horse-block,
a large advertisement on the door of a
tumble-down ahanty, a woman coming in
with a basket of eggs and with chickens,
and two bouses within the distance of a
quarter of a mile, convinced us we were
in the heart of the city. I must not omit
to tell you that we also identified “my
house” and “me” and “my wife” sitting
on the porch. Friend “Samps Holcomb’s”
we could not be sure of, as instead of there
being but three places to pass, as we
were green enough to suppose, wo found
at least six between the main road and
Mr. Hitower’s, fully as conspicuous as
“Bell-town, Samps Holcomb’s and “my
house.” An old “gent” near Bell-town,
is very anxious for,! is “gals to “lam to
play’music.” Ho wanted to secure my ser*
vices “to lam cm” for the honored com
pensation expressed in the words “free
gratis.” Though the prospect was entic
ing. I felt compelled to decline with
thanks. We heard of a “bran wedding”
in tbe neighborhood that night. A
handsome widow, “fat, fair and forty,”
took possession of a youth of twenty-three
summers. They rode on horseback to
the “Squire’s” and awaked him out of his
first sweet sleep. He came forth “en dis
habille de nuit ” and married them on
horseback, after which they cantered home
doubtless satisfied that the ceremony was
well performed. A short distance furth
er on our way, we passed the school
house where there was a crowd of boys
and girls of all sizes; and mingling in
their sports, appeared their doughty ped
agogue bare footed and with a red shock
of hair surmounting his good-humored
face, that might have delighted Dominie
Sampson. Now don’t imagine that I am
inclined to “make fun” of these hou»
est generous mountain people, for
indeed I honor their sterling worth and
unsophisticated integrity; aud among
them I am proud to number some of the
kindest and most intelligent friends I
have. Yet I cannot always refrain from
laughing a little at their idiosyncrasies to
which I believe they don’t object; for they
will join in a good-humored laugh even
at their own expense as heartily as any
one else can.
We now reached The Narrows, and
dismounting, addressed ourselves to the
pleasant task of gathering shells from the
bright rapid waters of Tellico River. We
loitered along its banks until noon, when
we stopped at Mr. Dickson’s for dinner.
His is one of the finest plantations on
Tellico River; and Mr. D. knows how to
raise the most productive corn crops, as
we found to our cost when we attempted
to cross his bottom fields in search of
Iudian beads, arrow-points and other an
tiquities which aro sometimes ploughed
up. There are some large Aboriginal
mounds in the vicinity. Near this place
there is a cave through which a creek
runs half a mile. The entrance is on tho
face of a high bluff' overhanging Tellico
River. It contains some huge stalagmites
of fantastic form and white as snow
drifts. Along the centre the roof is high,
but on either hand it slopes down till
even crouching space fails. It bears the
euphonious name of Sinkhole Cave.
In endeavoring to take a short cut
across the great level corn-fields we miss
ed the path, which was overgrown with
tangled Rich-weeds and Morning glories,
and had a wearisome time getting back
to the house. The com was very heavy
—two or three large ears weighing down
each strong, tall stalk; and so many
ditches and half dry sluices impeded our
progress we were glad once more to
reach Mr. Dickson's house. We found
this a kind, pleasant family, and really
regretted to bid them adieu when the
time for parting came.
We must needs now hasten towards
home, as the snn was about setting, and
we had about 8 miles to travel. We ford
ed Tellico River at the lower extremity of
the Plains and had a fine view of the
rich vegetation displayed along its wind- j
ing shores, and the beautiful mountain
scenery up its course towards North Car
olina.
After a pleasant ride, amid the gather
mg shades of night, we reached our
camp. We found our friends retired
supposing that we had stopped some
where elfce for the night.
We delight to linger hero at White
Cliff; but I suppose we shall have to re
turn home soon. I fear the routine of
home-life will appear dull for a season
after living such a free, joyous life as wo
do on Star Mountain. Come to the
Springs next summer, and then you will
fully believe my report of the healthful
enjoyment to be found here.

THE BABY’S DEATH.
There came a miming at last when the
baby’s eyes did not open. Dr. Erskine
felt the heart throb faintly under his fing
ers, but knew it was beating its last. He
trembled for Elizabeth and dared not tell
her. She anticipted him.
“Doctor,” she said—her voice was so
passionless that it might almost have be
longed to a disembodied spirit—“I know
that my darling is dying.”
He bowed his head mutely. Her very
calmness awed him.
“Is there anything you can do to ease
her ?”
“Nothing. I do not think she suf
fers.”
“Then you will please go away. She is
mine—nobody’s but mine, in her life and
death and I want her quiet to myself to
the last.”
Sorrowfully enough he left her.
Elizabeth held her child closely, but
gently. She thought in that hour that
she had never loved anything else—never
in this world should love anything again.
She wanted to cry, but her tears were
dry and burning, and not a tear fell on
the little upturned face, changing so fast
to marble. She bent over and whispered
something in the baby’s ear—a wild,
passionate prayer that it would remem
ber her and know her again in the in
finite spaces. A look seemed to answer
her—a radiant, loving look, she thought
must be born of the near heaven. She
pressed her lips in a last desparing ag
ony of love to the little face, from which
already, as she kissed it, the soul had fled.
Her white wonder had gone home. This
which lay upon her hungry heart was
stone.—“Some Womens Hearts.”

Dr. Freeman Clarke is now exercised
over the question whether animals have
souls. If he had kept a horse during the
dry season, and had the care of his feet
to keep them healthy and plastic, he
would know that the horse has a sole, and

THE GREAT REMEDY FOR
CONSUMPTION
which can be cured by a
timely resort to this stand
ard preparation, as has been
proved by the hundreds of
testimonials received by the
proprietors. It is acknowl
edged by many prominent
physicians to be the most
reliable preparation ever in
troduced for the relief and
cure of all Lung complaints,
and is offered to the public,
sanctioned by the experience
of over forty years. When
resorted to in season it sel
dom fails to effect a speedy
cure in the most severe
cases of Coughs, Bronchitis,
Croup, Whooping Cough,
Influenza, Asthma, Colds,
Sore Throat, Pains or Sore
ness in the Chest and Side,
Liver Complaint, Bleeding
at the Lungs, &c. Wistar’s
Balsam does not dry up a
Cough, and leave the canse
behind, as is the case with
most preparations, but it
loosens and cleanses the
lungs, and allays irritation,
thus removing the cause of
the complaint.
