■A, The New Orleans Picayune of
Tuesday came out in an entire new drees,
and looking “as fresh as a daisy. ”
Png' It is becoming very evident to
the minds of the “latter day saints” of
Salt Lake, that thoir “latter day” is ap
proaching.
STATE MATTERS.
New curiosities are developing
every day. The latest is a lawyer who
studied under John Randolph, of Ro
anoke. •
I®. Borne malicious fellow suggests
the following epitaph for Butler:
"Here 11m the 4-Ta eldMt >011,
Who caused the world some bother—
Hia bone* herereet; his soul has gone
To call upon his lather."
I®Weston, the pedestrian, will be on
the grounds two days during the Macon
Fair, and give exhibitons of his el-leg
ibility to the title of the champion walker
of America.
t&~ Parton [Mr. Fanny Fern) is said
to be fond of lecturing, and the only
reason why he cannot moke lecturing
profitable to him is, audienoea cannot bo
found who are fond of hearing him lec
ture.
|® The New York Sun devotes an en
tire column to the great national ques
tion—"Does Grant get drunk ?” The
public would, no doubt, manifest more
interest in the question—Does Grant get
sober—and if so, how long does be stay
so ?
I® A Newark paper, noticing the
death of Henry Sanderson, the pianist,
concludes with the following verse, which
is possibly better in conceit than it is in
theology:
“If piano music's ever heard In Heavon,
And Harry's faults forbid him there to go,
The ministering angela will come get him—
He can't be spared to go below."
a® Grant has gotten miffed at Calccazy,
the Russian Minister, and asks the Em
peror to recall him. The Emperor is
Cvar-ry that his Minister should be an
Envoy so extraordinary, and asks that he
be tolerated until after the visit of the
Grand Duke. In the meantime Grant
will refuse to see Catecazy, except in
company with Alexis.
19* The Atlautic Moutldy, excellent
Radical authority, estimates that, during
the year 1870, the people of the United
States paid, in taxes, to the general gov
ernment, ten dollars and sixtwo-two cents
a bead; and yet the party that collected
thisjenormous tax has the effrontery to
come before the people, asking support,
at the ballot-box, from the produoers and
working men of the oountry, who have
this tax to pay.
Ptg- Theodore Tilton asks, “Shall our
daughters be allowed to read the works
of the great masters of literature, which
contain passages and allusions of sn ob
jectionable character ?” There is some
doubt about a correct answer to this con-
nundrum; but, if the choice lay between
“the works of the great masters of litera
ture" and the “Life of Viotoria Woodhull"
by Theodore Tilton, tho verdict would be
unanimously in favor of the former,
the least damaging to morals and good
taste.
1® Morton, it seems, lias also been
dabbling in “grease.” While ho was
Governor of Indiana “he made contracts
for sanitary supplies for his State troops
in the Western army, which accounts
were shortly after paid by the Quarter
master General. In tho settling of the
State account with the general govern
ment, these accounts were found charged
up and were again paid. This little
game has been now discovered, and steps
will be immediately taken to inquire into
the course of this irregularity. ”
BOOK NOTICES.
“The Darwinian Theory,” regarding
the origin of the human race, has pro
voked a great variety of eomment and
criticism, and has been the inspiration of
any number of books and pamphlets
bearing upon the same, or kindred sub
jects; but, amongst them all, nothing rich
er has appeared than “The Fall of Man;
or, the Loves of the Gorillas”—which
Claims to be “a popular scientific lecture
upon the Darwinian theory of de
velopment by selection. ” The brochure,
covering nearly fifty pages, is from the
press of Carlton & Co., New York, and
is sent out in a very neat mechanical
dress sad paper cover. There is a vast
amount of humor in the book, and a fa
cetiousness, the “ridiculoaity” of which
even Mr. Darwin, himself, must appreci
ate. For sale by Phillips A Crew,
n.
“Stolon Waters”—also published by
Carlton—is a story, in verse, by Celia E.
Gardner. It is advertised as “a compan
ion to Owen Merideth’s Lucille,” ot which
it was meant to be an imitation. It lacks
every oloment needed to constitute cither
a poem, or a readable story. There is
absolutely nothing in the book—not even
smooth versification—which is the easiest
accomplishment of the poet Phillips A
Crew have it
Rev. Dr. O. L Smith, pastor of fit
Luke's Church in Columbus, who has

A Savannah young man, named Pat
rick McGrath, relieved himself of “the

the cause.
Two Spalding county negroes, return
ing from a corn-shucking, hod an argu
ment on the way, with knives. “They
carved in a way that all admired,” and
one of them is now in bed, tho other
in the woods.
Tho Grifliu Star says: “Wo have hud
our attention attracted several times of
late to the immenso crows of custom
ers, and especially lady customers, Ac.”
The question hereupon arises, does it
look well for the ladies to “crow” in a
way that attracts public atttention.
Columbus is building a new factory
that will oommenco operations with forty
looms. That is looming up very well for
a beginning.
John Williams, a “previous condi
tion,” was caught stealing a can of lard.
John plead against prosecution and of
fered to compromise by taking the good,
old-fashioned thirty-nine lashes. The
appeal was granted and John felt as he
used to before freedom. This was in Co
lumbus.
One bale to five acres is the most that

alize as much as one bale to four acres.

The ’possum season having oponod,

Mr. G. A. R. Tucker has bought the
Chattooga Advertiser. He ought to
drop ono or more ot those ominous ini
tials at onco.
The report that Mr. Miller Force hod
been shot has roached the Chattanooga
Advertiser, but it still lacks confirmation.
Augusta voted Wednesday upon the
canal enlargement. A large majority

The “most potent, grave and roverend

Archibald J. Battle, D. D., of Marion,

cer University. Will tho boys bo ublo to

Dalton sidewalks must doservo to be
classed among “ways that aro dark."
Mrs. Cathy fell from one of them tho
other day and “broke her left arm and
leg very badly.”
Dalton had throe frosts last week.
Tho Standard, after having walked
