■ Her women are handsome, fair,
and beautiful,, and hefc men gallant
and brave, and their hearts are at
tuned to every sentiment of honor,
both by historic reecollection and^
instinct. Such a people know how
to love their country and honor their
history in lifting their hat to this God
like mi>n, who knows the right and
dares its truth maintain.
We hear old men say that one man
only, his equal, lu;s ever before de
served and drawn from our people
such a tribute as was paid Mr. Hill
last Monday night. That man was
Henry Clay.
We love to recall the thrill of
pleasure which his speech in the
United States Hon.se of Representa
tives last January caused us.
A gloom had overspread our heart,
as wc recurred to the thought that
our fathers had been conquered in the
late civil war, and had been branded
as infamous and barbarous in our
treatment of helpless prisoners of war
Hope had departed that ever a truth
ful historian would rescue the South
ern name from the grave of meanness
to which our enemy had, by the hand
of unscrupulous power, consigned it.
The world looked upon us as mean,
and had even begun to doubt our
personal courage. But when that
speech was made, hope sprang as
Minerva full panopled from the head
of Jupiter.
Golden words were then spoken
that the hand of time cannot tarnish,
whose gleam will brighten and glow
upon the pages of Southern history.
felt onr honor redeemed, and one
barb of our defeat drawn.
IIow grand the man ! How divine
the brain that conceived the plan and
drew from the vast ocean-like store
house of memory facts in one short
night of preparation, to silence for
ever the slander upon onr honor.
What shall we pay the statesmen ?
Honor. What shall we pay the brave
man V Confidence. What shall we
Georgians return the patriot ? Our
love. Have we laurels ? Let every
Georgian pluck a leaf, and a wreath
be woven for his brow. Let Georgia
bring her honors and lay them at the
feet of her most famous son, and she
will hut feebly pay a debt her people
feel they owe. Let “Our Ben” he
sent to the Senate, and its walls will
re-echo to tones as ot the golden days
of our Republic, when Webster, Clay
and Calhoun made statesmanship hon
orable.

tain that citizens summoned to aid
these Mashals will decline to respond,
and, if arrested, will give bail and
test the constitutionality of the au
thority under which they act in the
highest courts of the land. In this
they will be supported by the* State
government.
Gov. Smith said to your correspon
dent that if one of these Marshals en
forcing Taft’s order should cause the
death of a citizen of G eorgia he would
be quilty of murder, and should he
arrested on that charge, and tried in
the Courts of the State.
Gov. Smith is a very prudent, con
servative man, and law-abiding to the
last degree. When he believes the
rights of his State are in danger, he
is as firm as a rock and full of nerve
and resolution.
Gov. Smith is a man of Roman
firmness and integrity. He will
maintain the honor of Georgia and
the Constitutional Liberty of the
country.

Smith’s Position.
We find the subjoined telegraphic
correspondence in the New York
Herald of the 22d :
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 21, 1876.—
Governor Smith, of Georgia,” has re
ceived letters from officers command
ing Georgia volunteer companies,
asking'whether or not they should
obey the call of deputy marshals if,
under Tafl’s order, they were called
on as a posse. The Governor has
not replied, but lias signified his in
tention of submi tting to the Attor
ney-General of the State the question
of the Constilut onality of Talt’s or
der and the Enforcement act, on
which it is based. It is an open se
cret that the Attorney-General of
Georgia believes both the order and
the act unconstitutional, and that the
Governor will so decide, backed by
this decision, which will meet his
own views precisely. The Governor
will instruct the Georgia militia that
they should refuse to obey any orders
save those that come through their
commissioned officers. This dicision
and the order following it will be
construed so as to relieve any citizen
of Georgia from becoming a part of
tbe posse when called upon by the
partisan marshals who serve tinder
Why his Life was a Burden.
Some time ago Cooley caught a
young man who was about to jump
into the river. As he seized him, he
saw it was Jim Kelley, and he said:
“ Why, Jim, what are you trying
to do ?”
“ I reckon it’s for the best,” said
Jim. “ Perhaps, I’d better not do it,
after all. Why, I was about to com
mit suicide!”
“ Why, what on earth's the matter
with you ? Are you crazy, or drun\?”
“ No.”
“In love may he,and disappointed?”
“ No.”
“ Well, what’s troubling you?”
“I’ll tell you. It don’t seem so
much now ; but it bothered me awful
awhile ago. Why, you see I was
sitting in my room and I got to think
ing. I thought if I was to fall in love
some tjmc with a red haired girl, and
was to many her, and she should
give birth to twins with the same
kind of hair. And s’pose those twins
should grow up one named Jacob
and other Isaac, and s’pose Jacob
should want to go to sea, and we let
him go, and he should get wrecked
on the Cannibal Islands, and the
Cannibals should take a likeing to
him, and adopt him as an idol.
“ And s’pose after while ho
should becomcji cannibal biinself.
And s’pose Isaac lie should marry
and raise a family of children, and
one of his boys should go to sea and
should be cast ashore on tho Island
where his Uncle Jacob was acting as 1
an idol, and those Cannibals should
kill him, and cook him, and offer
some of him to Jacob, and Jacob
should eat him and want more. And
then s’pose the government should
rout out those savages, and send
Jacob home, and he should have ac
quired such a taste for Isaac’s chil
dren that he should get to nibbling
the rest of them, and then start out
to clean up the rest of the family.
“ It was so awful that I couldn’t
bear to think of it, and so I thought
I would just block that heathen’s
game by drowning myself before the
thing went any further!”
“ But why didn’t you resolve to
. marry another w oman.”
“ That’s so,’’ replied he.
But he seemed bent ou courting
an awful doom, and proposed to
Buttenvick’s eldest daughter, who
has red hair. She refused him.
And he told Cooley the next day
that he was cleared up on the Isaac
aud Jacob calamity.—Max Adeler.

wishing for a law to compel people
to buy more dry goods than they
wanted, when in walked a man who
inquired for calico. Several pieces
were shown him, and when he found
a pattern to suit he asked:
“ Can you let me have that calico
for three cents a yard ?”
“Three cents? Why you must be
