• •Franklin Rifles,” [from the city of Apalachico
la,] at their camp in tho city of Columbus, Ga. t
on the ninth day of April, the following preamble
and resolutions, was unanimously adopted :
Whereas, The “Columbus Guards” have, by
their kindness and courtesy in tendering to us the
use of their tents and implements of cooking,
made us comfortable, and taught us that although
“strangers in a strange land,” the soldier always
finds in tho hearts of his fellow soldiers a warm
place; and as wo will always remember with much
kindness and respect each and every one who
wears the badge of the “Columbus Guards.”—
Therefore be it
Resolved, That tho “Franklin Rifles,” a3 a
small return for the many kindnesses shown them
by the “Columbus Guards,” hereby tender them
their hearty thanks.

What a beautiful comment the following is up
on a good housewife:
‘To hear her converse, you would suppose she
did nothing but read ; to have looked through
the department, you would have supposed she
never read.”
It is the opinion of a cotemporary that wood
goes further when left out of doors than when it
is well housed. Fie says some of his went half a
mile.
If a man could be conscious of all that is said
of him in his absence, ho would probably become
a very modest man indeed.
“Havo you read my last speech 7” said a
vain orator to a friend. “I hope so,” was the
reply.
Presumption end self conceit will overshadow
tbo brightest attainments.
A Troublesome Church Member. —Tho fol
lowing story, in regard to a class of exceedingly
troublesome church members, is related by the
celebrated John B. Gough:
A man had migrated from ehurah to church,
breaking up each as ho passed-. At length he
found himself in the Presbyterian church, where
ho was making great progress. The preacher,
in great distress, said to one of the elders: “What
shall wo do with him?” “Oh roplied the eider,
“I have been praying to tho Lord to send him
to hell!” “Oh, brother, what do you mean?”—
“Mean what I say; I hope he will get to hell; he
would do good there; he would break up the es
tablishment in six weeks.”
During the past three months four hundred
and seventy persons have been killed nnd woun
ded by the Indians in Texas.
OBITUARY-
Heath has again invaded the ranks of our com
inanity, and stricken down one of our most
nsoful and valuable citizens, Samttel J. llatcheb
died on the 10th inst. He was born in Chester
field County, Va., on the ISih September 1812,
and removed to this city ia the year 1836, where
he has ever since resided, commanding the re
spect and confidence of all our people.
If Samuel Hatcher ever had an enemy he nev
er deserved one, for his integrity and purity of
character prompted lrm to the full and faithful
discharge of all tho duties of eitizm, friend, hut
band, father and master. The death of such a
man is at all times a loss to an entire communi
ty, but how inconceivably great is such loss to
his more immediate circle of friends and family,
lo his bereaved wife and children, this cornmu—
t'ity can only offer the most heartfelt sympathy,
and commend them to the God of the widow
»nd the fatherless. *

curity of a duty of one-eighth of a cent per pound,

This duty, under all circumstances, of peace or war,
secures the punctual payment of the interest, and
furnishes a sinking fund for the redemption of the
principal. The coupons, w hen due, are receivable
iu payment of the duty on cotton, and are thus made
available as coin, everywhere in country. la

part of this valuable investment, and to exhibit then
common interest in raising funds for the common da
teuce, books of subscription will be opened at th«
cities and principal interior towns; five per cent,
