A negro named Woodltull is now
in jail in Long Island for having mar
ried two women in forty eight hours.
He now thinks taking one woman for
better or for worse is a small thing
when compared to taking two.
Senator Crown was immediately ad-,
mitted among die more advanced and
powerful rr,en in the United States Sen
ate, and while the gallant Gordon te
tired the entire senate felt that his spot
less mantle fell on shoulders of one
whose wonderful powers will equal any
display of accomplishment and endur
ance and whose giant mind will not
be eclipsed by anv senatorial effulgence.
Gen. Gordon has spoken through a re
porter of the Atlanta Constitution. He
sa\s his resignation was not a universal
surptise—that many of his friends had
known his intention for a long time.
To tho question of why he did not with
hold his teaignaiion until adjournment
of Congress lie said, “Simply because
I could not put off business arrange
ments that long. Gov Colquitt begged
mo to do so. When asked as to the
nature of tho business arrangements,
alluded to, he said, “It is that of gen
eral counsel for the Louisviih' fc Nash
ville railroad company. When the sub
jeet of trade was mentioned, Gen. Gor
don showed mortification and pronounc
ed such efforts to defame and degrade
him as ungenerous and unjnst.
In speaking of the recent Colquitt,
Gordon end Brown sensation, the
Ilawkinsville Dispatch says:
We do not'endorse the meetings
lield in Columbus and Barnesville.
The occasion did not justify such
violent and hasty procedings.—
Governor Brown’s abilities
undisputed and undoubted. Wo
have not endorsed ’ his course, ei
ther daring or isince the war, but
wo have never doubted liis caj ac
ity to till any o.flicc within the g ft
of the power of Georgia, We
have censure,d, him, condemned
him, and opposed him, hut we do
not believe that ho is to-day an
enemy to Georgia 9 interest or that
lie will prove recreant to the im
portant trusts given to Ilian •
AVe have not lost confidence in
Gordon and Cohpuit, nor will wo
join their enemies in their abuse.

A Pointed Argument-

let an old sold'er —one who followed
General Gordon to the surrender—
say a word in his behalf?
In the first place, I do not admit
the possibility ol a suspicion lodging
against General Gordon, but admit
ting such a tiling as possible and that
General Gordon had determined to
bargain or trade’’ fur money,
couhlu’t he have made a fortune
easier by'‘bargaining and trading ’
in the senate where he was a leader,
than by retiring to private life and
giving up all official privilege and

Ho, h iwover, requested tho me
nonncement miula for t lie fourth S d>-

tin, who then lormaliv introduee.l
Brother Hally to ties audience. He
fttose and expressed lon regrets of in
ability to discuss this sulijct as its.
importance domanded; for though ho
might, speak for hours, and with
tongues, ho could only present the
salient points of interest.
A brief synapsis of an hour’s talk
is all >vh propose or can give,—
dho speaker took up the science of
deontology in so far as the r. hi live
duties of pari nt and child were in
volved. He read front the sacred
book a portion of Dent. Gttii chapter,
in which Moses insi ted on Israels
obedience 1 1 the decalogue—obedi
ence thereto being the epd of the
law; he insist and ti at it was as appli
cable and binding on ns to-day as i*
was on Israel —that its obligation was
perp tir.l. universal, extending toev
. ry creature and to the last moment
of time, The'promise to Israel was
tho land of Canaan, in which tit y
were t > keep tho statutes, and not
only to keep them, br.t, ‘'Thou sh dt
tench lion did gentlv unto ’li eh 1
dren,’’ Ac., and as the Lord God h id
delivered Israel from tho hind of
Egyptian bondage, so had Jesus by
his death satisfied the demands of n
violated law and deliverctl us from
tile bondage of eternal death, where
fore, we should “be subject unto the
lnv of Christ,” and not only so, but
to teach it to our children. The ap
plication wis indeed interesting to
alb Again, ‘ For I have told him
that I will judge Isis house forever,
for the. iniquity which he htioveth:
for his sons made then: - Ives vile, and
lie restrained them n a." Ist Samuel
3 13. The application was made fi
parents of to day; for as Eli was to
have his house judged forever, be
en uso of ft known evil unrestrained
—fur suffering his children to commit
evil without rebuke —if this indiffer
ence of Eli so incurred thc.diplcasure
of the Lord as to have Ids house sift
ed. even so may parents of the pres
ent day for like indifference and inat
tention of their children’s viol diems
of the statutes of both Go I and. pa
rents, then the same judgment-, 'may
be expected upon their houses. Do
you parents insttuct your children
on the statutes of the decalogue as it
is our duty to do? He feared not.
and hence they were subject to be
afflicted with perverse, disobedient,
sell-willed and vicious children as tho
reward of their wilful negligence.—
Do you raise in the tear
and admonition of the Lord ns you
should? I)o you send them to the
Sabbath-school and go with them as
you should ? lie feared that this was
not fully done, and ret he could com
pliment this school and neighbor
hood—the pupils for their prompt at
tendance and recitations, parents, Ibr
their interest in the children; teach
ers for their readiness to instruct, and
mothers for their lessons in humility
in discountenancing the pride of van
itty, s besotting sin. Parents “raise
your child in the way he should go
and when he is old he will not d< part
from it.” Do you do it? I). ion
“spare the rod and spoil tho child?”
He was of the opinion tint win. , all
• means had b. eu used—when tho
voice of 1 1 *v* -, the gont'e wo. dugs of
affection, oil failed, it than became u
duty to use the lod—enough, just
enough; not in severity or anger.
If a little suffices, sti'p—if obdurate,
lay on until you see a yielding of tho
wicked, vicious, malignant spirt, it
will sicatiize, perhaps, for good. The
writer, however, is of opinion that,
the use of 1 lie rod is mostly render
ed necessary by neglect of duty on
| tho part of the parent in the outset;
I for he who will live up to the lull
; measure of duty wi 1 1 seldom have r< -
' fractory and perverse children. 'I he
influence of bad associates, which the
parent should bo careful to avoid,
will root out the seed of early piety
sown in the heart of tender ago and
will corrupt Ihe best, self-protected
mind of youth. Excuse this digres
sion and to the text, it is the duly
of ,parents to furnish proper food—
biußcs do as much—to protect the
child, not only their external person
from impending danger, blit to pro
tect the mind lrom vicious, perni
cious and trashy literature lay which
tho mind becomes so much engross
ed and poisoned as to render it unfit
for the realities of uselul life. No
literature, which will create in the
mind ,a superstition or vain expecta
tion which cannot be realized, should
lie tolerated or allowed, it is is the
parent’s duty to educate them, and
by this ho did not wish to be under
stood as a literary education alone,
but a moral ami religious education
taught them from .precept and exam
ple—to bo taught from prat ling
babes in the nursery, to the Sabbath-,
school, and tho pulpiX oh to tiro oc

their departure not to spend a cent,
except for actual subsistence, and
and IV"tn the fact that they have
got so far on their journey, it is
presumed they fund the walking
