Divorce does not exist in France,

Mr. T. B. Owen, of Pulaski county,

thing due ut tlie little store around

have been told to call uguln, make
their souls glad by paying that “little

brances tbuu are anticipated, and tlie ]
giver’s own bosom be free*I from a i
care that before oppressed it. Little
tilings may, perhaps, slip the memo
ry, but they sum Hie totul of a life.
The Philadelphia Ledprr, in a
very sensible editorial on this
subject, says these little bills
do not eome in with printed heads
and ornamental envelopes; they are
little scraps of paper, with a few figures
scratched in the corner, or a boy or a
little girl calls to ask if It is “conve
nient,” which it always ought to lie.
Some people seem to have an idea
tliut tlie settling of these sinull ac
counts is conferring a favor—rather a
meritorious net indeed—because it is
to lie supposed, they might have been
put off longer still. Especially is tills
true when tlie money is paid for sev-
Ice done, which passes quickly but
of sight, while the new carpet and
window shades and vnHes, the new
coat and lint nre reminders
in themselves. All tlie more,
then, should there lie reckoning
when jieople are starting out witli
full purses to buy Christmas presents,
and tlie question he asked, “How
much of this money belongs lo me?”
It depends on tlie answer whether to
go lirst to the purchase of expensive
tilings or whether tills, ttmt, and tlie
other forgotten dues nre set aside and
carried to their respective owners.
So, when people are making out their
lists of where to go and what to get
for the children and sisters and aunts
and mothers-in-law, let them first put
down tlie little Mils. Jusl wlmt is
paid in these small matters will help
other people to make Christmas pres,
ents, or will make their Christines
somewhat fuller handed. Whatever
else may wait over until after the
New Year, it ought not to be these.
■ I A Bill HEADS.
We have them in every class of
society, but the colored brother ap
pears to lie excelsior. In whites, it is
demonstrated by the obstinacy of the
mule, and the piggishness of doing
the very opposite of what is desired.
In the colored brother, however, it is
developed in tlie hardest sort of a east
iron shell. We have all heard of (.lie
ono who, when struck by a brick that
fell from a third story, merely ob
served, "who's dat frowing dem gou-
her hulls at me?” The latest we
have heard on the subject comes from
South Carolina, and is reported in tlie
court proceedings. An escaped peni
tentiary convict captured a ham that
didn’t belong to him. A policeman
made chase. The darkey dropped
the ham, and took refuge in it pond
of water, wading to his neck. The
officer ordered him out of that, or lie
would lire, and the darkey told him
to blaze away, and the request was
compiled with, The ball struck the
head, the only spot visible, pussed
carefully around the skull and tum
bled down on tlie other side. Tlie
officer was about to repent the exper
iment, but tlie fugitive lost confidence,
remarked lie had laid enough and
waded out.
Now it is of this hard-headed class
that the Republican party made voters
to perpetuate tlie power of carpet-
boggery. Well, the darkey after
being popped by both sides, conclud
ed that ho had hail enough of it and
as he was forced to surrender to some
body, he would yield to tlie men he
had to live with. The carpet-bagger
aimed, but never struck the head.
He went for tlie darkey’s pocket and
money, and every time he injured, so
the darkey surrendered to tlie other
crowd, who tired away at a point
where lie couldn't he hurt. The
“hard-head” soon found the differ
ence, and ns neither side would give
him anything unless he worked for
it, and the carpet-hugger kept nil he
had and more too, he either let the
ballot alone, or concluded to join witli
those who had something to furnish.
His head was not too lianl to find out
by experiment where his interests
lay, though the Republicans of tlie
North cannot yet comprehend it, and
evince a inBlish obstinacy in not
doing so. It really looks as if, politi
cally, they had the hard-head of tlie
plantation Sambo on many points,
Tlie colored man lias learned to tqi-

the Senate re-assemhles. Their ob
jective point is to turn Evarts, Key
and Schurz out of tlie Cabinet. If
they can get four or five Democratic
Henators'to vote as Conkling desires,
they will settle down to their work
witli good hopes of success. There is
considerable curiosity in political
circles to know how those Democratic,
Senators who voted with Mr. Clonk-
ling the other day will vote the next
time. The question is presented In
nominations for the New York cus
tom house officers who are opposed to
making it ft political machine.
Senator Voorhees is preparing
for a great silver speech when Con
gress meets after tlie holidays. The

GRAND JURY PRESENTMENTS.

Doconiber 21, 1877. f
We, the Grand Jurors ohoaeti for the

General Presentments:

We find, upon examination of the
hooks and files of the Clerk of the Su

correctly kept, as far as wo are capable
ot judging; and we find them ho ar

which' to base a tolerably correct idea.
Public buildings all in good order:
also bridges as far as we have been able
to ascertain.
With reference to roads, we suggest
to the County Commissioners the post
ing of sign-hoards and mile-posts on
all important roads.
Those Citizens who complained of the
condition of the old Saint Mary s road,
are respectfully referred to the Hon.
Ordinary, who wilt show them the Taw
tonching their grievance. Not being a
public road it does not come under our
notice.
ILLEGAL VOTING.
We earnestly entreat all good citizens
to assist in putting a stop to this evil.
The practice gives the office to the high
est bidder, which is neither just dr com
plimentary to the successful capdidate,
Before closing these presentments
we beg to say something ,of the evil of
selling intoxicating liquors on Sunday
and renting houses to parties for the
purpose of gambling. Prominent citi
zens have come before this Grand Jury
and testified to their having patronized
these bars on .Sunday, In opon daylight,
While good citizens patronize them and
connive at the evil tho law cannot be
enforced.
We take pleasure in commending tlie
earnest efforts of his Honor, Judge
Crawford, in meting out justice, and to
Solicitor General Bussey in the dis
charge of his duty, and beg to return
our thanks to each of them for official
courtesies shown this body.
We request his Honor, Judge Craw
ford, to have these Presentments pub
lished in both tho daily papers of the

ORDINARY AND MIIKRIFF's OFFICE.
Tho office of tho Ordinary being the
most Important, wo gave this a thor
ough examination, and tako pleasure
in eommonding It as a model in the
way of system, neatness and general
good management.
SHERIFF.
Tho hooks and papers are regularly
and correctly kept, and every business
transaction properly entered. Tlieeon-
f'usion and Irregularity in which the
present ineumhent found tho office has
entirely disappeared, and we commend
him ns faithful and efficient.
We recommend to our representa
tives in tlie next .Legislature the enact
ment of Home law making it the duty
of tho Sheriffs, Justices of tlie Peaco,
and police officers of cities, to take out
warrants of arrest where they are noti-
lled of a crime having been committed.
If we are correctly informed, unless
some person chooses to become prose
cutor, ail offender may never be called
to account lor a crime. We have been
moved to this suggestion by tlie escape
of policeman Hackney, who wns per
mitted to remain at large until he saw
proper to leuve the State.
Tlie Magistrates' offices are generally
kept corvectly, though not systemati
cally or neatly.
TA* RECEIVER AND COLLECTOR,
Upon examination we find both tlie.se
offices properly and neatly kept, and so
tabulated as to be easily comprehended.
Wc are informed that !he amount of
taxable property is given at 93,368 less
than last yoar, owing no doubt to
shrinkage in values.
SCHOOLS.
Wo have not been able to confer with
the School Commissioners of tlie coun
ty or hud their reports. We have had
an interview with tlie Superintendent
of the Public Sollools of this city, and
also examined the general reports,
from wlfleh we learn that about 91,850
was appropriated by the State to the
school fluid for this county, Independ
ent of the poll tax, which Is about 91,350
—making about 93,200 the State appro
priates for the county. About half of
this amount ha* been delivered to tho
treasury of our city for the benefit of
our city schools. We nre satisfied the
appropriation has been judiciously ex
pended. We regret tliut we have not
iuul a direct report from tlie County
Commissioners or an interview with
them, lint have reason to believe the
whole fund lias been properly ex
pended.
POOR HOl’SE.
There ore in the asylum twenty in
mates—eight whites and twelve blocks,
a few of whom nro without blankets.
WHtfthis exception they are tolerably
well provided for. We suggest that tlie
brick on the premises lie used for build
ing pillars under tlie cabhlns, as the
wooden supports are rotten.
There are 8 hogs, 9 head of cattle, 1
mule, 1 horse and 33 goats, the property
of rho asylum.
Tlie crop made will feed the stock.
. As the Superintendent does not keep
books wo are unable to report as to how
much lias boon produced,or how it was
expended, and think he should keep a
strict account of every item disbursed
or received.
Tlie land is too poor to make farming
protitable to tho county. Wo examin
ed tho books of the Treasurer, and tlud
he lias received from October 1st, 1876,
to October 1st, 1877,92,847 30, and has
vouchers for that amount paid. There
are 20 outside the Asylum receiving
half rations. Under tlie present man
agement wo eaunot tell how much it
costs the county.

’Tis said of the little nocturnal pest,

It is rather strange that they refuse tlie
blood of a lady who has the hysterics,
or who is prostrated with any chronic
female complaint. Now it strikes us
that all ladies, who aro alHieted as nbovo

use of that wonderful female medicine
known as English Female Bitters, and
be cured of those female troubles, that
they may furnish good wholesome
