Ne groes do not generally desire to becomo Masions, as they have an aversion to be longing to lodges where they have to “work” their way in. — Don Piatt calls for a rhyme for Conkling, which the Courier Journal pro ceeds to snpply, a3 follows : There vu a great statesman called Cawugkling ; Uo tcuaciouHly did to the wrong cling ; He put on more etyle Than a man with his pilo Ought to put on, this stt oan nca’Jcd Cawngkling. h. lawyer named Geo. S. Stilman, told Judge Barnard, of New York, the other day, that he did not believe any justice could be obtained in that court.

If the river could speak, it would call as loudly for tbo improvement of Cincinnati, or for permission to run, in some direction that would avoid the necessity of going so close to it. — Senator FrcliDghuyaen spoke against Collector Murphy and the New York Tribune puts him down aB “another Sena tor on the way out of the Republican party.” The Tribune knows that a man cannot say aught against one of Grant’s pets and stay in tbo party unmolested. — The New York Tribune pays its re spects to Conklin^ by sayiug : “Of all the petty and utterly contemptible reso- lutions of inquiry ever introduced in Congress, none has ever gone so very low down as Senator Conkling’s resolution to ascertain from the President what recom mendations to office have been made by certain Senators.” The Washington correspondent of the Savannah News, writing on the 28th, says: The declaration of Senator Seliurz in the Senate yesterday, that ho could not support Grant for re-election, and that ho could vote for os good a Republican ns any one on the floor of the Senate, lias created considerable excitement in official and political circles, and a strong desire prevails among all classes of politicians and officials to know something further of his programme and his associations. They will scarcely be gratified in this before the meeting of the Independent Republicans at Cincinnati, when it is probable that the whole programmo will be made public. It is growing more aud more apparent that this Liberal Republican Movement is creating no little consternation in the camp of “the faithful.” Conkling, and Morton, aud Chandler, and others, have been doing their best to briug the disaf fection of Sehurz into ridicule; but, at this time, they but poorly disguise tho disturbance they feel at the course he is pursuing. They feel that ho is daily weakening the cause of Gruntaml adding strength to tho Democrats. They look forward with no little trepidation to that Cincinnati Convention, as it will proba bly determine whether tho Republicans will bo forced to accept one of the two horns of ndilcuimu, viz: to drop Grant altogether, or go into the campaign with a divided party. It is plain that Sumner and Sehurz will not go for him, and ul- most as plain that he win not have the support of Horace Greeley, and by no means positively sure that Forney will throw Pennsylvania into his arms. When Achille Murat settled down on a plantation in Jefferson county, Florida, it was said that one morning, while, with coat off, he was washing Ins face on the piazza, plantation fashion, a “cracker” rode up on a mule aud accosted him with “Stianger, they say tbar’s a king living alxiut here somewlmr, and I’ve cum ten miles jest a purpose to see him.

THE STUDY OF LANGUAGES; Brought to it# True Principles, by C. Maucxl. New York. JD. Atpleton A Comtekr. In tho same measuro as a taste for the study of the modem languages is increas ing, the question concerning the proper method of studying them is gaining in ^ ^ _ importance. The author of this volume! asked if he would take some pudding, has proceeded on tho priuciplo that a j replied, in a fit of abstraction: pupil must, for a considtrable hmgth of ‘ Owiug to a crowd of other matter, we time, learn to understand n foreign Ian-1 ®!° n ™ able to flnd room ,orlt .•‘-Chimney guage by seeing and hearing it, beforo he Excerpts of Humor and Euu. 19* It is not always a mark of frank ness to possess an open countenance. An alligator is a deceitful creature, and yet lie presents an open countenance, when it is in the very act of U'.ing you in.— Channel/ Canter. An editor at a dinner-table being can successfully attempt to speak aud write it. Accordingly, the teacher is not expected to introduce the learner at once inter the difficulties which, for instance, the declensions and conjugations of a highly inflected language like the Ger man necessarily presents. Many will turn a deaf ear to all that may be said in favor of this plan, because, forsooth, there is no royal road by which learning can be reached. The system of the author deserves, however, the consideration of every one who takes an iuterest in the acquisition of language, since it lias been tested by gexperienoe and bos not boon found wanting. This work has been prepared for tho study of tbo German lai.guage ou the plan of Marcel. Accordingly, it does not require the student at the very start, to commit to memory grammatical roles, followed by isolated sentences by which those rules aro to bo illustrated. The work contains, in sixty lessons, tho funda mental principles of the German lan guage, not embodied at onoe in set rules, but developed in each in a way that makes progress gradual, and there fore comparatively pleasant Tho work may be used also by those who are in favor of the old plan, if they chooso to make their pupils commit tho rules of grammar as they proceed with their cx- GEORGIA MATTERS. Tho Albany Central City of Wednes day has tho following item: Theo. Williams stabbed Major James W. Mayo, yesterday at r ue o’clock, a. m., near this city, wliilo at a ball. The physicians pronounce Major Mayo be yond recovery. The Griffin Star adds: Another Grif fin boy has recently made his murk. At tho Sophomore declamation of Ogle thorpe University last week, Master Jo seph Jones, formerly of Griffin, won the first and ouly prize us the best declaimer. It will be recollected that little Joe. was the favorite at last year’s exhibition of the Sam Bailey Institute, in this city. Joe. has already taken the first honors at Oglethorpe, competing with the best talent in the State. Meriwethor county will elect a Sheriff next Friday. The Gwinnett Herald of the 2Sth tells tho following: Wo cannot resist tho temptation to tell rather amusing incident which occur red in Savannah during the session of tho recent Convention. The Convention was invited by Mr. Green, President of the Chamber of Commerce, to a party at liis residence on the first evening of the ses sion. As a matter of courao everybody eut. Mr. Green lives in a splendid mansion, fitted lip with the elogaueo of a prince. Ilia large parlors were beauti fully ornamented with statuary, paint ings, etc. At ono end of tue large dou ble parlors was a very fiuo mirror, ex tending from floor to ceiling. One of our up-country delegates, after looking through the two parlors, thought ho saw another parlor with a crowd in it, and concluded to walk in. When ho got near what ho thought wus the door, he no ticed a gentleman approaching him com ing out of the room, when he very polite ly stepped to one side to let tho gentle man pass, but tho approaching gentle man, equally polite, stepped to the same side he did, when our up-country friend politely bowed, at tho same time remark ing, “I beg your pardon sir.” His as tonishment can be readily imagiued when his nt $o came in contact with the glass, and a loud roar of laughter greeted him on every side. Our up-country friend quietly retired to one coiner, saying—he did not see anything to laugh Rt. If any gentleman desires to get an old-faaliionid fight ou his hands, all ho has to do is to enquire of this delegate whether hemado any “new acquaintances” in Bavannali 1 “Tho ojstcr is enough to kill a decent man,” says tho Dalton Citizen. The opinion is founded upon turnips os a sta ted diet. Anthony Jenkins, colored, of Thomas county, has been convicted of murder and sentenced to be bung on tho Glh of April. An application to tho Ordinury of Mon roe county for letters # of administration upon the estate of a negro recently de ceased—the first on record in that coun ty—was made last week. The vulue of tho estate is estimated at $2,500. Tho Wyudham 'Joinedy Company is in Columbus. Shad sell in Columbus at 25 to 50 cents each. A United States Marshal At tempts to Murder and Rob an Old Man. On lust Saturday night two weeks ago, Zack E. Thomas, United States Marshal for North Alabama, with a squad of Fed eral horsemen, went to Mr. Miko Sensa- baugh’s residence and called him to the door. When he opened the door he was seized by two men, who pushed him buck into tho dining room, where ho be held tho face of the black-hearted Thom as. Mr. Sensabaugh argued iu vain with them, and finally threatened to report thorn to tho authorities at Huntsville, whereupon the candles were blown out, aud he, (Sensabaugh), received a severe blow ou his head with the butt end of a pistol from Thomas. Tho soldiers then used their brass knuckles, which brought the old mau bleeding to tho floor; his pockets were then searched for green backs and valuables, but tho confusion awoke Mr. Sensabaugh’s cook, and she gave tho alarm, and tho murderers and robbers fled without accomplishing their design. Tliomas and his squad left early the uext morning, and passed through Moul ton that evening. A few miles southwest of Moulton, wo learn, they went into an old widow u Oman’s yard, and shot down her chickens and hogs, aud destroyed her com and fodder. We hope it will not he long until the “I am afraid you will come to want,” said an old lady to a young gen tloman. “I have to that already,” was tho reply “I want yoiu daughter. ” The old lady opened her eyes.—Chim ney Coi'ner. BoP* A few days ago a very starchily- dressed individual called at au out-of-tho way shop, on Howard street, over which swung the sign of Doctor Jeffries. “Is the doctor inf” he inquired of dilapidated darkey who answered his summons. “He am dat, sir !” was tho smiling re joinder. “Tell him I think I have symptons of small-pox, and would like to oonsnlt him.” The whites of the darkey’s eyes grew inteuse, and his dnsky complexion os suined rapidly a creamy hue. “Golly, boas, wu t you say ?' “Tell the doctor I’m sick with tho small pox, aud wish to see him.” The astonished African gavo a wild leap, and darting through an inner door, slamming it in the visitor’s faoe, cried out: “Leva disyer house; I don’t want no small-pox.” “But the doctor ?” “Golly, boss, I’s tho doctor, but I aiu good at am all-pox. Ch imney Corner. HaF* In hir lecture on Artomus Ward, Mark Twain tells the following: When Artemus was very young he aud a com panion got hold of a pack of cards and learned to play euchre. Artemus was perfectly fascinated with the game, and played it tw often as he bad au opportu nity; but it bad to be done oa the sly, aud he had to hide his cards from his pa rents. So, when he was lookiug out for a placo to hide them, tho boys thought the safest place where they could put tho cards was in4he pocket of tho minister’s black gown, under the very rogia of the Church. I don’t know what «»gis moans, but it’s a good word, and I suppose its all right. Well, tho old minister was called on to baptize a convert, and as he went down into the water wearing a gown, the cards began to come up to the surface and float off. The boys who were on the bank watching, though in great fear, kopt their eyes on tho cards. As it happened, there enmo up first two bowers and three aces. Of course tho boys wore thrashed, aud au old aunt of Artemus proceeded to lecturo him on the enormity of the crime. “Why,” said sho, “just imagino how tho poor man must have felt when ho saw the cards coming npl I should have thought ho would have fainted, and I don’t soo how ho got out.” “Well,” said Arto- mus‘ “I don’t seo liow ho could help g ing out on such a bond.” Tho following has recently been published in Tub Sun. Wo reproduce it by special request, as it has probably escaped the attention of somo of the readers of The Sun; and those who have heretofore read it, will enjoy its perusal u second time: Out in a certain Western fort, some timo ago, tho major conceived the idea that artillery might be used effectively with the Iudians by dispensing with gun carriages, and fastening the cannon upon the backs of mules. So he explained his viows to tho commandant, und it was de termined to try the experiment. A how itzer was selected, and strapped upon an ambulance mule, with the muzzle point ing toward tho tail. When they had se cured the guo, and loaded it with ball cartridge, they led that calm and steadfast mule out on tho bluff, and sot up a target in tho mid dle of tho river to practico at. Tho rear of the mule was turned towards tho tar get, aud ho was backed gently up the edge of the bluff. The officer^ stood around in a semicircle, while the major went up and inserted a time-fuse in the touch-hole of the howitzer. When the fuso was ready, the major lit it and re tired. In a minute or two the hitherto unrufiled mule heard the fizzing there on his neck, and it made him uneasy. He reached his head round to ascertain wbat was going on, and as he did so, his body turned, and the howitzer began to sweep around tho horizon. Tho rnnlo at lost became excited, and bis curiosity grew more intense, witb his four legs in a bunch, making six icvolutions in a min ute, audjtho howitzer, understand, threat ening sudden death to every man with in a half mile. The commandant was observed |to climb suddenly up a tree; two lieutenants were seen sliding over tho bluff into the river, as if they didn’t care at all about the high price of uniforms; the adjutant made good time toward the fort, tho ser geant began to throw up breastworks with his bayonet, and the major rolled over the ground and groaned. In two or three minutes there wasajuff of smoke, a dull thud, and the mule—oh! where was ho? A solitary jackass might have been seen turning successive buck-somersaults over the bluff, only to rest at anchor, finally, with his howitzer at tho bottom of the river, while the hall went off toward the fort, hit the chimney in tho major’s quarters, rattled the adobe bricks down into the parlor, and frightened the ma jor’s wife iuto convulsions. They do not alludo to it now, and ro report of the re sults of the expel .'moot was ever scut to tho War Department. ► • A Tale or Two Cities. Under this head the Herald, of Sunday, contains tho. p u-ticulars of a remarkable feat performed tho Thursday previous under the supervision of Mr. Augustin Daly, of tho Fifth Avenue Theatre. On that day he sent his entire company from New York, with their wardrobes, etc., to Philadelphia, gave a matinee performance of “Divorce” at the Walnut Street Theatre in tho latter city—tho curtain rising at 1 o’clock p. m.—aud then at 4:20 p. m. hud them on board the New York train, and at 8 o’clock tho curtain rose at the Fifth Avenue Theatre with all at their post, ready to give the 176th performance of the same play at that theatre.
