The agony is over, and the sore head'. arc many. The Hon. George D. Kice has been made Judge of the Western Circuit for eight years, and our talented townsman, Emory Speer is our Solicitor General. The contest was a hot one, and it is only to lie re gretted that so many wise and smart men had to be left in the cold. May a kind providence temper the winds to these. Governor Smith has registered many life long opponents, men who hope that they may never look ujton his like again. It must have been dif ficult to have made choice when Estes, Hutchins, King, Thurmond and Judge Davis were in the field. Judge Rice is a lawyer of the most unquestioned ability and integrity, and his appointment is highly satisfactory to the lawyers and people of this Cir cuit. He lost two son j in the Confcd- erata army, and this coupled with other great qualifications made him the successful contestant. As to Mr. Emory Sj>ccr nothing need be said here, where he is known. He will make himself friends, and admired all through the District upon his first round, and is the very man to put a stop to the commission oi crime. The State has never before had an officer to represent her of more sterling ability and worth. His vigorous prosecution of offenders will have a happy effect succeeding as it docs the lame attempts of the late Marlcr. Those who were disappointed, although they cannot grace the bench, can still be heard in the forum and at the bar. Their pow er for good is not gone. The country will yet demand their services. Ret them, remembering the words of the Post, Hope and Wait! There is to be a new Judge in 1881 and a new Solici tor in 1877. Other appointments will occur at successive periods of eight and four years ever thereafter. It is much to be regretted that the Hon. Joel Abbott Rillups was defeated for the Judgship in the Ocmulgec Circuit". George T. Bartlett was appointed. He bad neither the ability or charactor of Mr. Biliups. The Senate was loath to confirm this appointment and time will vindicate their hesitancy. Davenport Jackson, Jno. T. Glenn, Albert Cox and Emory Speer, Solid GEORGIA ITEMS.

X Foomhii SnciDK.—One of tbe most foolish suicide that has been com mitted in this country for years occur red a few days ago in Cleveland, Ohio. A married lady living there, whoso husband was in good circumstances, and who provided for her in a style compatible with his means,-took a fancy to a new and expensive carpet which site desired him to purchase for her, aud which he declined to do.

Never overwhelm your friends hy begging them to make themselves at Ignne, or they will soau w'ish they were there. Show hy your actions rather than your words that you are glad to see them. Have enough regard for yourself to treat your greatest enemy with quiet politeness! All petty slights are mere ly meanness, and hurt yourself more than any one else. Do not talk about yourself or your" family, to the exclusion of other topics. What it you are clevir? Be so, in order that other folks may think so. It may be interesting for you to talk over your ailments, but veiy tiresome for others to listen to. Make people think you consider them elpver and agreeable, and thsy will lie pretty apt to have a pleasant impression of yoti reelf. Treat people just as you would like to have them treat you. It is rail 'll easier to lose the good opinion of jieople than to retain it; and when pue do2a not care' for the grfwf opinion of others, he or she isnot worthy of respect.
