li, is nucleus to longer hope tliat
the bill before the Legislature, ns
presented by H<*n. T. W. Grime**, of
Muscogea, will meet with sny favor.
A few weeks ago we wore cotifl lent
that the bill would pass the 1 loose
snd Senate, and the outlook for an
early resumption of work on the
road wn* e.moo raging, but now the
Legislature seem* to be against it,
and even if it were to pass, the iop
position is that it would not bo ap
proved the Governor, It is now
left to the people in the eouuties
through which the road passes, to
say whether or not the road shall fall
i ito the hands of the Central line, or
he bought by themselves, and the
. rk be pushed f , ward to comple.
leu C >lnmtiu* s in speaking
of pttehas*- -M 'l* ‘s.tys: “We
and n■ Kiev ii plan than iho
one sugfpwied on previous occasions,
and that is for the counties ol Miw
ro g n e, II a in* snd Meriwether (or of
Troupe if an extension fo La Grunge
can shortly be effected) to arrange
for its purchase."
Wo think the above i* tho best
mggeslion tlist can ho ramie. Har
ri county is in a good financial con
dition, snd not being emliarrassed by
any iudalitedne**, her bonds could
he easily negotiated. The comple
tion ‘of the North and South road is
it lit a an important item with tl.e
pic* ol Harris county, and wo hope
that a move will be mad*' at once to
taLe steps in that direction. Let tho
county issue forty or fitly thousand
dollars in bonds, and become a stock
bolder. Romo of our moat consider
ate and ii)6nontinl citir.cn* believe it
to be a safe and wine investment, and
one that will in a short time boa
nonreo of revenue to the county. The
road is now more than paying ex
penses, with but twenty uiilcs in run
ning condition; build it to LaGrange
or even Cbiplcy, and there is no
•doubt but that it will pay hand
somely. We sincerely hope that our
leading cittvens will fake the matter
’ll) hand, and call a meeting in order to
lay a proposition of bond* or no
•bond* before the people.
Gkoroia ItrciSl.aVukie.—-If tho
Legislature had done anything wo
-would most assuredly havo told our
readers about if; but they havo only
passed a few local bills, that would
not bo at all interesting. A bill ha*
been before that great body lor the
reduction of salaries, but they forgot
to *tart with their own per diem and
railage, and have hauled off on that
for awhile. Another bill i* before
the house for the consolidation of the
offices of Receiver and Collector for
Harris county. Now we do believe
in retrenchment as orach as anyone,
but wo can’t see where tho justice
comes iu, in thi* casc. We have nev
er born a tax collector, nor do wo be-
Nave that our worthy representative*
Lave,or they would not have present
ed such a bill. We ’hope they w ill
retrench, and begin at the prqpcr
(.•lacc(thenise]ves)aud go through Urn
entire list. As il.o thing now is, we
believe the most ecouniical flwnr
they can do would bo 1 0 f
go home.

Walks Among Our AiHrrljv rs.
BfCOKD J'aJ-KK.
Saturday morning we roe with
the snn. This early rising wy be
a good thing; it is a good tiling if
you wi**h to catch an car’y t rain, but
in a hygienic point of view, however
pretty the theory, there are doubt*
existing a* to the practice even to
this day. It is our opinion that it is
lii-olihir-r ui let tlm sun gel up first;
and after tho earth Ins been hung
out to dry for an hour or two, then
it is perfoctly safe for vs to get up.
Good, sound, healthy sleep is a great
thing—nothing el>e like it ; and it is
an admitted fact ihat tho only hours
we spend in this life that are free
from sin, are spent in childhood or—
asleep. But it is well, sometimes, to
be awake—awake to truth and duly;
and if duty demands early rising,
then, by all means, get up early.
Saturday, we wire up early, and
after enjoying a frugal breakfast
w alked down to the otlice where we
found nil hands too busy to talk to;
and fearing Jwe would get into
mischief by remaining—or, w hat was
worse, would have to go to work—
forthwith made up our mind to leave
m>; i run over the way te pay a prom
iscd visit to our friend,
N. 11. B/VBMiV.
We found him and hi* accommo
dating, energetic clerk, Burt C., both
at the store. Burt was very Imsy, a*
he usually ia ; o w e aat down and
had a pleasant chat with the agreea
ble ‘Squire He ia 'doing a flourish
ing business, and in order that lie
may continue to do an, advertise* in
the Journal. He has a flue stock
of grooecieson hand which are priced
just, as low doWh a* fjiey can be aold
in this market, or indeoil in almost
.any other, and we can asijaro you of
fair dealing wlicn you trade at Bar
den's. W has also op fiarifi, for medic
al purpose*, an of old
bottled whiskey, and pure Holland
gin which are very cheap for the qual
ity—we have tried it, ctr medicine,
and know it is worth recommending.
Leaving ’Squire Bafdcti’a wo drop
ped in on our friend •
J. W. SroicET.
Wo found him pleasant and warm
hearted, tfa usual. He is a thorough
going, active business man, and al
ways ready to give yon a good trade.

On our way back to the office, we
saw a small boy miAjng heavy ef
forts to coox a stubborn mule
by a certain, old stopping-place, but
be “didn’t coax worth a cent ;” Ir
fact, foe sometime it was doubtful
which would win, tho mule or the
boy; though, "finally, the mule gave
in and away they went, but it was
not accomplished by coaxing —a
crowd of bystanders drove the stub
born animal along. Coaxing doesn’t
win, nmeh, -iu this world. A short
time ago wo saw this fact illustrated
with the following result:
A <certaiii mother had made up
her mind that her little ’boy needed
some vermifuge, hut she knew she
"Jt approach him gently. She j
i tin* bottle where ho could see !
ati-i when ho turned up his nose,
she s.tiil; “It's just, hike preserve-
Hvfvp, my darling. TIo seemed to
doubt hor word, and she continued,
“If you’ll take noino, I'll let you go
to the putty to-night. “Dow much?"
lie caution.-ly inquired. “Oh, only
a spoonful, just one spoonful,'’’ she
replied as she uncorked the bottle.
“And you’ll giv e tue sonic sugar be
side* P ho asked. “Of course I
will—a I ; :r lump.” lie waited Until
-he began pouring from the bottle,
and then asked, “And you’ll give
me Veu cents, too?” “ Vos, of
course.’’ “And y oti'll buy me a great,
big Va’eutino he wont on, seeing
his advantage. “ 1 guess so.” “No
Valentine, no wormtspugo," he said,
as he drew Imok, “Well, I'll buy
you the Valentino,' 1 she replied, fill
ing the sjoon. “Atid a fiddle?’’ “I’ll
think of it. “You can’t think no
worm truck down me,” ho exclaimed,
looking around for his hat. “ Here
I’ll buy it, or I'll tease your father
to, and 1 know he will. Come, now,
swallow it down.’’ “And you’ll buy
me a goat?” “Yes.” “And two
hundred marbles?” “ Yes ; now take
it right down.” “And a pointer
dog?” “ 1 can’t promise that.’’ “All
right; no dog, no wormisciuge?’*
“ Well, I’ll ask your la her.’’ “Ami
you’ll buy me a pony ? “ Oh, I
cbulrln't do that. Nov be a good
hoy end swallow it down.” 1
Ves, I’il swallow that stiff. I '

went out to act: if the pcighhir’a cal
had been caught in the deadfall he
had set for her. Coaxing don’t win.
Next week we expect to vjsil some
rtf our lawyer friends whoso cards
may be found in the Journal. L.
Fact* in Jhti Cm so.
Fanners all through this section
of country made a failure in their
crops last year. The continued dry
weather parched up everything in
the way of vegetation, and it was llio
exception and not the rule, where a
man made the expenses of running
his farm. This has been very dis
couraging, and particularly so to the
negroes. It haa been out of the
question for them to inffke money,
and they do not seem to realize the
situation. We admit that it is hard to
work a'l the year without being re
munerated, but it fulls on whitfe and
black alike. Let them all take cour
age and sot out with a renowcil de
termination to win, and the probabil
ity is that next fall their burns will be
filled with plenty. The'meeting of
the negroes in Hamilton last Friday,
w hile it was held out as an emigra
tion meeting, was nothing more nor
less than a stri kc for higher wage*.
They believe that the white men are
able to pay them higher wage*, and
do not at all take into consideration
the *hortnes of last year’* crop.
They may be backed in this thing by
some white man who wishes to make
a little capital out of it, as they sel
dom do anything without it. If let
aloue they will all go to work, and
as two crop failures seldom come to
gether, we may confidently look for
ward to better tinip* next fall.
Leap Year.
A young lady has very kindly fur
nished us with tho law relative to
leap year. It i* an extract from an
old volume published in the year
1000, entitled “Courtship, Love and
Matrimoni,” which lays down the
law as imperatively as anything in
Blackstone. Wo quote from it as
follows:
“Albeit it is nowe a parte of the
Common La we, in regard to the so
cial rotations of life, that as often as
every bessextilo year doth return,
tho ladycs have the solo privilego
during the time it continuetb, of
making love unto the men, which
they may doe either by wordes or
lookes, as unto them it seeineth
proper; and, moreover, no man will
he entitled to the benefit of clergy
who dotlie refuse to accept tiro off', rs
of a lady or who dothe iu anywise
treat her ptoposal with slight or con
tain el ve.”
As this law has never been repealed
' wo call the attention of our ladies to
! it, especially if they wish to eijoy pe
culiar privileges granted them dar
ing leap year, and also by way of cau
tion to confirmed bachelors, that they
may boon their guard, and not ex
pose themselves to the chance of being
seized upon and summarily disposed
of for life. Asa gentle hint we
merely remind the young ladies that
the editor, foreman and typo in the
Journal office are all now iu a state
of single unblessedness.
Our Wagon Hoads. —The hill in
reference to the lload Law has been
lost. It seems as though the Legis
lature is determined not to carry out
the wishes of the people, as there is
hardly a man in the state but what is
in favor of good roads. W e cannot im
agine u reason that would prompt any
member to oppose it. The most as
tonishing part of it is that many of
the members are, more or less, con
nected with farming, and litis being
tire •ease, they certainly know the dis
advantage of hauling crops to market,
and their corn, bacon, Icriilmem, etc.,
over bad roads. A motion to recon •
rider the bill prevailed, and we hope
the Legislature will have the bill be
come a law before they adjourn.

Thk Dog Dim.. —A bill to lay a
tax on all the dogs of this State lias

There is scarcely a press in the Stale
| that has not urged the Legislature to
1 pass an efficient dog law. The State
1 (<range and the State Agricultural
Society, have each memorialised the
j Legislature in favor of such a law.
This is undoubtedly a popul n reform
