A gay and festive youth of some seventy
summers, in Gwinnett county, not many long
years ago, lost bis wife, and after the days of
mourning were over, he started out to find his
second spouse. The frosts of time had unceremoni
ously bleached bis fiery red locks, and gave him
venerable appearance. He succeeded in find
ing bis affinity, and as she happened to be young
and fair, he determined to ceremonially dye—dye
locks—on the eve of his wedding. Be was ig
norant ofthe merit or Tutt's hair dye, and had nev
er heard of YiUlia. So lie procured a bottle of ink,
thinking that as it was good to color psper it would
do to color hair. But owing to the sad freak or time
impairing his eye-sight, he mistook the color
of the ink, and got a bottle of blue instead one of
black. And while his face was radiant with joy,
his locks looked remarkably Utu. We have often
heard of men growing pals after marriage, bxit
this is the first instance of one becoming Kut at
such a joyous moment.
Harvard University.—-The Boston Ad

students have several clubs among themselves,
where legal points are mooted and . decided.
There is also connected with the school a pari
ment, which is designed to make the future mem
bers of the legal profession familiar with parlia
mentary usage and debate. In this body the live
questions ofthe day are discussed. The constitu
tionality of the Georgia bill, now before Congress'
was the last for consideration. Prominent among
the many able speeches made during the argu
ment were those of Messrs. Brown, (son of cx-
Govcrnor Brown) of Georgia; Gambull, (son of
ex-Governor Gambull) of Missouri; Fessenden,

to chronicle the death of our young friend, Jesse

and left it, unloaded, at Colonel Boyd’s. That
night as bo and his cousin Robert Boyd were go
ing to supper, Robert, in a freak of fan, picked up
the pistol (which nnfortnnately had been loaded
by his little brother) and remarked, “Jesse, I am
going to shoot you.” Before ho had leveled the
pistol fairly, it went off, placing a ball Just above
Jesse’s right eye. Jesse lingered for twenty-five
thirty minutes in a speechless condition. None
regrets the accident more than Robert Boyd, for
he loved his cousin. Young Jesse was horn on

Disastrous Fire at Carrollton.-A sub
scriber at Carrollton writes us, that on last Fri
day morning, about 3 o’clock, tho Etglo Hotel,
owned by A. J. Daniel, was discovered to be on
flro Tho flames soon communicated to tho
grocery of W. B. Cooyers and tho Masonic
building, the basement of which was occupied
by W. H. Worthy os a dry goods store; all three
being adjoinlog were soon consumed. The pro
gross of tho flro was only arrested by the catting
down of a building which had commenced to
burn.
The origin of tbe flro is, unknown. It was first
discovered in the cook room of tho hotel, and so
rapidly did lt spread that bnt few articles were
saved, and the Inmates escaped with difficulty.
Mr. Addison Steed jumped from tho second story
of tho hotel, about SO feet, in his night clothes,
escaping without serious injury. Most of the
articles in the other buildings were removed, hut
in a damaged condition. Tho loss is between fif

Lightning Rods.—As apropos to tbe
season, wo give the instruction of Professor Hen.
ry, of the Smithsonian Institution, relative to
lightning rods:
1. The rod*shonld consist or rod iron of about
one inch in diameter; its parts throughout the
whole length should be in perfect metallic con
tinuity, by being secured together by coupling
ferrules.
S To secure it from rust, the rod should bo
coated with black paint—itself a good con
ductor.
3 ft should terminate in a single platinum
point.
4 Tho shorter and more direst tho comseof the
rod to the earth tbc better; bnildiogs should be
rounded and not formed in acute angles.
6. It should bo fastened to tho building by iron
eyes, and it may be insulated from these by cyl
inders of glass, (t don’t, however, consider the
latter of much importance.)
6. Tho rod should be connected with tho earth
in the most perfect manner pos iblc, and nothing
is better for this purpose than to place it in me
tallic contact with tho gas-pipes, or, better,
the water-pipes of tho city- This connec
tion may be mado by a ribbon of copper or
iron soldered *o the end of the rod of one of its
extremities, and wrapped around the pipe at tho
other. If a connection of this kind is impractl
cable, tbe rod should bo continncd horizontally
to tho nearest well, and then turned vertically
downward nntil the end enters the water as deep
as its lowest level. The horizontal part of the
rod may bo buried in a stratum of pounded char
coal and ashes. Tbe rod should bo placed, in
preference, on the west side of the building,
rod or this kind may be pnt up by an .ordinary
blacksmith. The rod in questien is in accordance
with our latost knowledge of tho facts of elec
tricity. ' Attempted improvements on it are
worthless, and, as a general thing, arc proposed
by those who are bnt"slightly acquainted with the
subject.

In the Superior Court, this morning, t
Mr. Kettles and Mr. n. Gregg, local editor
of the Chronicle and Sentinel, and son of
the General, applied for admisslbn to tho
bar. The young gentlemen were scarch-
ingly examined by Judge Hook, General
Wright, Mr. Shewmake, and acting Solic
itor General Davidson, in the order named.
Every question propounded, as far as 1
could hear, was spromptly and correctly
Young Mr. Wright gives promise of mak
ing a first-class editor, though I hardly
think that he is physically able to stand tbe
exhaustive demands of a profession which
has worn out so many men. He will suc

I do not know Mr. Kettles; therefore can
say nothing of hilff.
TnE Constitution has frequently noted,
and if I remember correctly, protested
against Georgians abandoning their native
State and seeking homes elsewhere. The
tide of emigration flows ceaselessly, and
with increased volume, toward Texas. We
find that strangers are coming in—taking
the placeof those who have gone. Wo wel
come those “hew comers,” as, in common
parlance, we call them; because they come
as workers. Casting their lot with us, they
strike our hands with the honest interest of
developing our incomparable resources.

The Colonel and Mrs. Haas, I need not tell

gala day at this place. The examination
exercises of tbo High School at this point,
presided over by the Rev. >V. D. Atkinson
and Mrs. Hammond, was the attraction that
brought so many to this point. Tho school
(truly termed a High School) Is a very in
teresting one, and promises to be a flour

est taken in tiie school by thc patrons,
(many of whom are at a distance,) and the
community in general. This point Is very
attractive to those who wish to patronize a
high school; made so by the healthful lo
cation; the moderate price charged for
board; tbe high standard of society; tbe
general interest taken by all in the moral,
as well as the mental advancement of all
pupils in attendance; a place that scarcely
supports a single bar-roog), although

All places of business were closed, and
all citizens and strangers were present to
witness the interesting exposition of youth
ful attainments. Many from a distance
were present, and gave universal praise to
the creditable manner in which tbe missie
and the master, the lass and thc laddie, to
gether with the advanced novices of both
sexes, acquitted themselves. Declamation
was truly an interesting feature—several
young men proving themselves already
capacitated toipdujgein polemics smartly:
while younger boys did' honor to them'
selves and instructors, in graceful gestures
and fair deliveiy. But if thespeaking was
interesting, truly as much so was the com
position leading, which waa indulged in
by the young ladies. I will only‘speak
of one in particular, and that was the sub

Koskoo.—This medicine is rapidly gain
ing the confidence of tiic people, and the
numerous testimonials of its virtues, giv
en by practitioners of medicine, leaves no
donbt that it is a safe and reliable remedy
for impurity of tho blood, liver disease,
etc.
The last Medical Journal contains an ar
ticle from Prof. R. S. Newton, M. D, Pres
ident of the E. Medical College, city of
New York, that speaks in high terms of its
curative properties, and gives a special rec
ommendation of Koskoo to thc practition
ers of medicine. This is, wo believe, tiie
first Instance where such medicines have
been officially endorsed by tho Faculty of
any ot the medical colleges, and reflects
great credit upon tho skill of Dr. Lawrence,
its compounder, and also puts “ Koskoo” in
the van of all other medicines of the pres

For tho last few years tho proprietors of
the celebrated Plantation Bitters Wave been
experimenting in thc growing of Calisaya
Bark on thc Island of Jamaica, and have
found, from actual tests, and by no means a
mean experience, that tills valuable bark
can be grown with, marked success only
upon tbc mountains from 1,600 to 2,000feet
high. There tho forests are often bedewed
with the early-mist, and tills tree arrives at
its full perfection. Owing to the largely
increasing demand for tliu bark required
for the manufacture of quinine, and also
for use in fflo preparation of Plantation
Bitters, the procuring of it lias been a
source of great anxiety to the proprietors,
and seeing, as they did, that tiic South
American^supply would soon give out, took
the above early precaution to fully supply
the demand, and, assisted anil encouraged
as they are by thc English government., at
Jamaica, wc have not tiic least doubt but
they will succeed.
