the noblest specimens of humanity and
one of tne most cultivated gentlemen of

The Governor eloquently proclaims
the Southern women to be the highest

reason he assigus for this is, that they

favorite expression of this distinguished ers, whom we met at home, are plaiu in
cividau that tne laws of national life will | their manners and rather domestic in

sition, just as t .o laws ol tbe uuui.ui con

cisely the life of the American people
aud no legislation at the present time
can continue long that does not repre
sent the honeBt convictions and promote
the best interests ol all the people. This
great fact of history is suited to stimu
late the lottiest hopes of patriots and
reemeu.
The Governor feels assured tnat the
national conscience is now waking up to
a sense of the enormities of t) e conduct
of ou r rulers, as the Credit Mobilier case,
aud be late municipal elections at the
Nor a clearly indicate. Pnyaieians pro-

slightest sensibility returns to the torpiu
limb of the paralytic. In like manner
the late investigations at Washington of
the charges of fraud aud corruption
evince a returning sense of integrity and
honor which is snre to eventuate in a
great national purification. Ia this con
viction he coincides with our distin
guished Georgian, Mr. Stephens.
Gov. Seymour expresses the opinion
that there never was more mental and
moral power in the United States than
at tne present time, but unfortunately
it is not in the service of the Govern
ment Owing to tne pecnl-.ar p stare ol
our public affairs the best intellect of
the country is confined to spheres where
it cannot shine out in its full strength
and splondir.
ue affirms .vith emphasis that wLer
Southern statesmen were in power we
hau a pare and glorious government;
but that in tne.i exclusion from office
ctime and corruption nave lorae in like
their habits. They teem to take the en
ure control of the household cares to
leave their nuttier uninterrupted in her
literary labors. Her whole time is occu
pied in writing books, contributing to
magazines and periodicals, and in an
swering the letters of her numerous cor
respondents. On being introduced
to this female celebrity we confess to
our utter disappoin ment iu regard to
uer person, manners aud conversation.
We expected to find her a masculine
woman, of bold address and bitter speech.
Instead of this, she is possessed of a
delicate form, gentle demeanor and cf
soft and winning tones of voice. We
conld scarcely believe onr own eyes that
we had before us that notorious persou-
age who had set the world on fire by
that masterly caricature, Uncle Tom’s
Cal>in, and who had offended public
taste aud morals by the publication of
the Byron scandal. The conversation of
Mrs. Stowe touched principally on
sociology and religion. Sne is decidedly
in favor of female suffrage, but thinss
the right ought to be exercised with
delicacy and discrimination—that it
ought to be restricted mainly to matiers
of education, and not be carried into the
heat •'nd i a>sion- of purely political
questions. It in tier opinion that voting
on tbe part of women in the United
Siates is only a question of time.
Mrs. Stowe thinks that tne great tojial
evii of ti-e age is tbe refusal on the part
of both sexes to marry wiinout money.
Mercenary matches are the curse i>t the
times. Povertv bae d 'crr. 'w many a m.-
u.e woman to a life of perpetual maiden
hood aud wealth has wed led many a
mean mau to a woman whom he has ren
dered miserable by his jealousy aud dis
sipation The institution of marriage is
based on :he affections, and whenever it
is entered from any venal consideration
the moat fatal consequences mast follow.
The morality of society depends
on the number of marriages and
unless the expenses of living are
curtailed, tbe marital rites will be
more seldom celebrated. A young man
with a moderate salary cannot support a
wife who lives up to the requisitions of
modern fasuion, and as a consequence
he will either choose a life of single
blessedness or resort to unlawful means
to meet the wants of an extravagant
partner.
If the yonng ladies of the land wish
to taste tbe sweets ot conuuoial bliss
they must be more industrious and econ
omical—tney must have less acquaint
ance with the merchant and mantua-
maker aud more acquaintance with do
mestic economy. “ My brother Henry,”
Baid Mrs. S. “ started without auy thing,
but he Baid he would marry if he hau to
live on the North side of a potatoe and
now his salary is $25,000 a year
aud his perquisites innumerable.” This
sentiment she recommends to the young
men and ladies at the present time.
We must, not omit to mention that six
fottunes have been realized from the sale
of “UncleTom’s Cabin,” but the pub
lishers pocketed most of the proceed?.
The author remarked modestly, “Iwa 8
about a year in writing this book aud
had no idea that it would have suoh a
run or I would have made myseif inde
pendent by keeping the copy-right in
my own name.” This greet work of fic-
tioo has had a wider circulation than any
book which bas appeared in the word for
the past two hundred years. A section
of tbe British Museum has been aDpro-
pnated to the reception of the various
translations of this elaborate and thrilling
diatribe against slavery. A million of
dollars from the sale of a single book is
an enormons emolument, but Uncle Tom
took the tide of popular prejudice at
its turn and was thus led ou to fortune.
A woman of Mrs. Stowe’s splendid gifts
and fanatical views on the subject of
slavery was the very person to move the
heart and wield ihe sentiment of the
world against what was supposed to be a
great social and moral eriL
Mrs. Stowe is well instructed on the
subject o' religion aud is very active iu
the Sunday School and in promoting
various works of benevolence and chari
ty. But she does not subscribe to much
of the old iron-cast theology of New En
gland. She thinks the Puritan divines
have presented the gospel in a harsh and
repulsive light aud have thus givou the
world a distaste for the doctrines of
ehri&tiamty. Accoiding to her conc< p-
tion their theology teach e8, “you must
and you can’t, you shall and you sha nt,
and you’ll be damned if you do’nt.” Tne
terrible representations of wrath which
mark the history of Puritan pulpits,
sho affirms have ' no foundation
in scripture or reason, but are
largely the products of imag ; nation and
passion. She would place the sermon of
Jonathan Edwards “Ou Sinne.s in the
Hands of an Angry God,” along side of
Dante’s Inferno, and Angelo’s Last Judg
ment. She admits that the artistic and
dramatic power of all thtse is very great,
but that they belong to the supersti
tions of Medieval times, and not to the
more mila und be-iutilul lessons of the
New Testament. A relig’on of love aud
not ot fear, is to convert the world. She
regards the gospel as a pure, simple and
lovtly system, which prociaiirs peace and
good will to all men. She is aware that
she is not considered orthodox, but then
she claims the liberty of thinking for
herself on all subjects. She ; s a member
of her brother’s church in Brooklyn, and
is about as laiitudinanau as Henry Ward
Beecher. She rather congratulates her
self on being on the advanced line of
modern thought ou religiou3 as well as
other matters. i

American versus Kn^ll.h Po.ti.
A Lover of Nature's Poetry.
This great American poet,
with his
two daughters, has favored Florida with
a visit this season. He is a veuerab.e
old man of 78, and yet he is as brisk a**J
buoyant as a boy. He answers fully to
Carlyle’s definition of genius, which is
the power to reproduce the romance of
with the loftiest inspirations and most
thrilling imagery. The poet must ever
borrow the elements of beanty and
power from the magnificent and lovely
landscapes of nature.
Our interview with Mr. Bryant was
post-prandial, but the noble old gentle
man is so temperate in his habits that he
is always ready to converse in an instruct
ive and brilli mt style. His favorite meal
is mush aud milk. He has not drank a
cup of coffee for thirty years. He
never studies after supper, Lut spends
the time in conversation and in enter
taining reading. His habit is to retire
by ten at night. All his great mental la
bors lor half a century have been per
formed iu the morning. He wrote the
Thunatopsis whe’i be was eighteen years
ola, aud on this exceedingly beautiful
aud affecting poem Lie won his brilliant
reputation. His other rich poetical effu
sions have marked the later periods of
his long career. When asked whether
he intended to give the world auy other
poem, he responded that that must de
pend on circumstances. The poet
indites his celestial lines when he has a
" fit,” or when the inspiration is upon
him, and he cannot make bis muse work
at wilL The bard who sings for the ages
is for the time inspired, and it is only
when he has the “ divine afflatus” that
his “eye in a find phrensy rolling can
dart from earth to heaven. ”
Mr. Bryant holds that it is more diffi
cult to revise poetry than prose ; because
in the revision of the former the mind
must be raised to the fervent heat it had
when it gave birth to the original concep
tion. No man can criticise poetical com
position when tht mind is in a cold and
philosophical state, or when n has noth
ing to inspire it but the accepted rules of
art.
The author of Thanatopsis regards
Homer as by far the greatest poet the
ancient world has produced, and he
thinks tnat the “old blind man of Scios’
rocky Ide” did not produce the Iliad and
Odyssey in a written form, but simply
reci fed these golden poems for the in
struction and admirarion of his rude
countrymen, and that they were so pro
foundly impressed and delighted by
thes 1 magnificent epics that they treas
ured them up iu tueir memories aud
that they were thus handed down from
age to age till the art of writing was in
vented. There is no evidence that thisart
was known in the time of Homer.
We find it difficult to memorize a few
pages of composition, but the wild peas
antry of the earliest ages conld repeat
whole volumes of unwritten verses.
Mr. Biyant, in common with tne ver
diet of mankind, places Shakspeare at
the head of the world of modern poetry.
It is strange to him that people who
claim to know something do not study
profoundly the works of the master-dram
atist.
Milton’s *• Paradise Lost” is the next
greatest production of poetical genius in
modern times. In transparent purity of
thought and transcendent sublimity of
diction it has never been equalled.
He places Lord Byron very high on
the roll of fame, and but for his bad
passions, he would have stood in tbe
first rank of the world’s poets. He could
sing like an angel and hate like a demon.
Cbiide Harold is the loftiest achievement
of his genius. He has a wonderful ad
miration for Robert Burns with all his
acknowledged aberrations and follies. As
me poet of the people, he is matchless,
and in his power to open the deepest
fountains of humau sympathy, he is ab-
solutelv peerless. His Cotter’s Saturday
Night ia the finest moral painting in the
Euglish language, and his Tam O’Sban-
ter, as a piece of ludicrous humor, will
be admired forever.
Mr. Bryant hoots at the idea that
America has not got as great poets as
England at the present time. He insists
that Longfellow is the full equal of
Tennyson as a poet, whilst as a rigid
metaphysical thinker, the latter may
excel the former. He esteems
Evangeline and tbe PsJm of Life
as the gems of our popular countryman.
It is a fact that Longfellow is more read
in England than Tennyson.
An hour with Mr. Bryant opened up
to me writer a new world of beauty and
enchantment, aud if the time did not fail

Contrary to oublic expectation, after

of ihe Mayor, Recorder and nearly a

while tue Mayor, as he occupied a chair
on tbo Recorder’s left, looked as though
he had been “ tussling” with night-mares
all night. (Th«t piece of ham, you

Now, John Williams ia one of the
“ early worms” alluded to in our text,
who got caught by the early birds of the
police force. He had scarcely “turned
iu” on the soft side of an accommodating
gutter for a short day-break snooze, when
the police conveyed him to the lock-up,
and in less than four hours he was as
sisting McAfee in stopping the crack in
the rear of the calaboose, where his
horse fell in a day or two ago.
Melton Jones, with a melting cadence
in his voice, was overtaken by the po
lice when just in the act of staggering
out of a stately garnen gate, on Marietta
street, where they said they had “kum-
pany.” He gave expression in doleful
measuie to the following touching senti
ments:
We’ve met since then, but ’twas not th*r,

Whar flowers bloomed »nd birds did sing,
Wile I went bobbin ronn.

Another had won my love.
Tue guard would have no objection to
the burtuen of his song, if Jones hadn’t
tell down with tne burden. He was
minus the “recks,” and was taken down
to the Rockolngical Hospital, where fears
are entertained that he will speedily re
cover.
John Rains was arraigned for disor
derly conuuct and quarreling, and his
wife, Mollie Rains, was also up as a wit
ness. It appears that an Irish pedler
had put up at th“ Raius’s and concluded
to stop over a few days. How it exactly
occurred, did not come to light, but Mrs.
Mollie Rains had been shot eccidently in
a melee, while the pedlpr was there. As
that gentleman had vamoosed the ranche
nothing wrong was proven on Rains, and
he was discharged.
David Edmnn8, A. McWharters, James
Me W barters were all somehow or other
mixed up in a row. Somebody called
the old man McWharters a d—n lie,
whereupon the muscles in his brawny
arms suddenly contracted and when they
expanded somebody was laying around
loose in a pile, This fuss grew out of
the great fire the other night, something
about a fire engine, mechanics, officers
&c. It consumed a long time of the
oCurt, and when it was closed Jonsen
could find but one ten dollars for all his
trouble.
Miss Fanny Wood, with a heirtless
disregard of the perfumes of Pemberton
or the refined odoriferonsness of Sozo-
dont, was charged with cuising and
abusing Robert Carter, whom, she paid,
had a way of following her around when
ever she came out on the street for an
evening stroll. Her blushing features
were only partly hid under a calico sun-
bonnet, and she sported an ample skirt
of the same material. The witness at
tempted facetiously to identify her by the
style of her hoops, which wore much in
vogue here several years ago, and were
the “ tilt and be ,” and remarked.
•• He saw her but, a moment—
Yet me thinks I see It now.”
This announcement being considered
sufficient to convict, she was invited to
spend eight dollars and fifty cents worth
of her eleguat leisure in the Barry House.
The Court told Jonsen to present his
compliments to Carter, and briDg him
up on Monday.
Eila Gumming was coming past the
bower of Dora Evans when that lady
made some remark derogatory to the
James Wheeler was fonnd tied up ilk
a hard knot by John Barleycorn, asleep
upon his mother earth, aud with philo
sophic calm awaiting the result of the
water-works • propositions. He was
straightened out by the guard and the
Court ordered him to be bung across a
ciothes-horse in the lock-up until hie
muscular tissues relaxed.
TheD, amidst profound silence, Jonsen
took out his hymn book and deliber
ately commeuc'd turning over, looking
for a closing song. At lost he cl‘ Sred
up his throat, took the sound iu B. flat,
aud gave out the following—two lines at
a time. McLendon pitched it to the
tuue of “Father Grimes,” aud all stood
by for the chorus:

The Beginning of Pnsalon Week.
To-day (Palm Sunday, so called in
commemoration of the Savior’s triumphal
entry into Jerusalem, where the multi
tudes that attended him strewed palm
branches iu his way) is the beginning of
Passion Week, the last of the Lenteu
season. During Lent the members of
the Catholic and Episcopal Chinches are
taught the necessity of mortifying their
sinful passions; the superior excellence
of that covenant which Christ, by his
death, sealed over the law of Moses
the divine purifying effic icy of the blood
of Cnrist; and to-dny they are exhorted
to humility, from the consideration ol
the infinite condescension of the Son oft
God, in submitting, for our sake?, to
tbe death cf the cross. The lessons of
this day commence Ihe recitals of the
sufferings of Christ, which the ensuing
week more particularly commemorates,
which :s called Passion Week,
The week now coming in will be par
ticularly devoted to tbe commemoration
of the passion aud death of Christ. It is
also called the Great Week, on account
of the important transactions which it
witnessed and the exalteo blessings de
rived to the world from them; and it is
also called Holy Week, from the extraor
dinary and solemn exercises of devotion,
which those cuurches prescribe in it.
This week was observed by the primi
tive Christians with great strictness of
fasting and humiliation. They applied
themselves to prayer, both in public and
private, to hearing aud reading God’s
holy word, aud to exercise a most solemn
.repenance for those sins which occa
sioned the sufferings of the Lord of Life.
Geneva, Ga., March 29, 1873:
Dr. J. A. Jones:
