Fifth Avenue llotei., February 10. —Those flirting fifth-avenue fellows! Everywhere I go the young ladies are furious at the way Browns boys are conducting themselves this winter. Their chief aim seems to be to get a young lady “on the string” and then trifle with her affections. They al ways talk, but they never propose They fuss around three or four months with a young lady and then plead poverty and the I don't- want-to-take you-from-your-nice-home dodge. Now, the girls are willing to go. Tiiey are willing to live in a garret with a brave, handsome, working fellow, with a heart big enough to kill them with manly love. They don’t like these timid, calculating fellows. They like a man who will rush headlong where ev-er love beckons him, knowing that happiness and wealth will surely follow after. The young ladies begin to get mad. They are tired of waiting. Tins letter, from a young Fifth-ave nue bell, came yesterday, and it tells well the syren tale of love and flirta tion. “ Fifth Avenue, Febmary 9. — My Dear Kli: We Filth avenue young ladies have got an idea. You know the New‘York Flirting fellows have been going on dreadfully lately We never know when they are in earnest. They keep us waiting watching and fussiug, but they never come right square Out and propose They talk sVect 'enough —but when we get them right down to the proposing point they dodge off or remain silent. “ Why, only Sunday night, Charley Brown whom I love—really love, too much for anything—called, and even he fooled me like the rest. I’ll tell you how it was : “Fa and ran were at church, and sister had gone up to Vassarto school, "when Charley—the dear boy—came. Well, we sat on the sofa, where we always do. By and by he took my hand ; then he told me he loved me. This made me blush—not because it was anything new, for the fellows all say that. “‘Do you love me? 1 he asked, leaning forward so that I felt his head against mine. “Yes, Charley, you know* I do,’’ I replied, and theft I—why I waited for Charley to say the rest, bit he held my hand thoughtfully a little while and then dodged off by saying, “ Well, Lizzie, I'm glad you love ine, for I do like to be loved ! ” “ Oh, the mean fellow*! I could cry with rage, but I like him, and I like to have him come here, but I do think it was mean to make .me com mit myself so, and then he—why? maybe he’ll go right off and and > the same thing to some other girl to night ” •lizzie's idea. “ This is our new idea. All the girls have agreed to it. We call it the honorable dodge, and we are bound to put through every flirting fellow a® New* York on it. The idea is but lH tell >ou how 7 I practiced it last night and you will understand it better. But you know it is a secret, and ot course, you are to be trusted. “Well, last night Fred Palmer call ed. You kuow* he is an awful flirt.— W e sat on the same sofa where Char ley and I sat before. The gas was low, and pretty quick Fred began to talk ‘spooney,’ I preteuded to be af fected. Then he said, ‘w*hat a pretty ring you have, Lizzie.’ The old dodge, you know.” “Yea, so-so,” I replied. “Is that yonr crest engraved ott it?” he asked taking my hand. (Another old dodge, you know.) “It isn’t half pretty enough for your hand,” he con tinued ; “ you should have a diatn >nd solitaire. Would you like one?” he asked ? ” looking lovingly into my eyes, “ Yes,” I said, “if it comes from the right one.” “How would you like one from me, Lizzie? he asked, with a sigh. “Oh ! I should be delighted, if I thought you loved me,” and then I looked down on his coat sleeve. “ But, Lizzie, you know I do love you —I love you dearly. I ” “Do you love me enough to speak to lather about it? ” 1 asked inter rupting him. “Yes, dear Lizzie, I will speak to him to-moiTow,,’ he said, kissing my hand. “No, Frederick,” I remarked, re moving my hand from his convulsive clasp, “I’m glad you are willing, but I’m engaged to Alfried -Sinith, you know, and I was only seeing how far yoa would go!” So keep the idea a secret a liftle while, my dear Eli, and we gills will fool every fellow in New York.— Mum is the word 1 Yours, hlZZlf. CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 1, 1872. Pay for Brain Work. “Gail Hamilton has recently been engaged as one of the editors ot Woods Household Magazine at a salary of three thousand dollars which is about ten dollars a day. How r a dollar month ly magazine, including contributions from the writers, at from twenty-five to two hundred dollars per article, can afford to pay its editors from one thousand to thee thousand dollars salary is a fianancial problem.” The above extract from “Rowell’s Recorder,” indicates a bonditioa of things to w*hich we are strangers at the South. Here is a dollar magazine which can afford to pay one of its fe ■male editors a salary of three thou sand dollars per annum. What other are paid w*e do not know. Our readers will recollect our calling their attention in our last issue, to the list of distin guished contributors to this monthly, all of whom are,of course, liberally paid. The circulation must be im mense to warrant this expense. Our object in calling attention to this subject is, to impress the fact that the readers of the valuable journals of the day are interested, as well as the proprietors, in extending their circu lation, and not only cheapened, but elevated and improved, both as to the manner and the matter. Suppose, for instance, that The Plantation had a circulation of tvventv thousand—which it might readily have by the efforts of it3 friends. The pro prietors might then well ass >rd to era ploy varied and eminent talent and pay it well, while the cost to its present readers would be greatly diminished. With us at the South, brains are about the poorest kind of property, un less they be employed in business or in law* or in medicine. An ordinary book-keeper receive as large a salary as the editor who may bring to his chair a graceful and facile pen, and results of years of an observant and varied experience. This does hot arise from the penuriousness of proprietors, but from the fact that the c irculation of their papers will not allow* larger salaries. Yet, we frequently enter Farmer’s houses and find Northern, butno South, ern, Agricultural papers. It is said, in justification, that the Southern pa pers cost too much. Why are they comparatively costly? Because of their limited circulation. Let those interes ted in southern Agriculture extend their circulation, and the cost will be speedily reduced to the Northern stand aid. There is an an analogous deficiency in the matter of summer travel. Per sons in our cities work hard during the winter, abuse Yankees as hard as they work, and although their up-country scenery and climate are as fine as in any part of the North, as soon as warm weather comes tnev are oft'to the Noth '•to spend their own winter’s earnings. When asking why they do not patron ize their ow*n watering places, the answ*er is that the hotels are Dad. We should like to know how they ever can become good, furnishing comforts and luxuries without patronage ? It is so with agricultural papers.— How can they ever become cheap with out patronage ?—The want of pataon age of talent, except in its application to more money making, is the oppro brium of the South. If in a good sense, w*e would be really independent, we must patronize, not only home mate rial industry, but home talent usefully employed, wether in the pulpit, the school room, or iu the editor’s sanc tum. There are good men and true men among us who have overlooked the special view of this subject of pay lor 1 brains Asa general rule, in its par ticular application, it is good sense to buy where we can get the best bar gains. But in its larger and economic sense, this depends upon interest con nected with the mere bargain, but superior to it. If, by a loss in a par ticular instance, we can advance an interest which indirectly, but certainly advances more permanent gain. This is a large subject and we merely enter upon it. We close this article with a particular application.— if, by a loss of one or two dollars per annum, by the patronage of a home, instead of a Northern, journal, we cau directly and indirectly so improve our system of culture that, in ten years, we shall have advanced the saleable value of ourfarm of 1,000 acres, the merest trifle per au num. per acre, during that time, we shall have paid for our agricultural newspaper a great many times over, and have something left in money, be sides the healthful iuflunee upon oar children and neighbors to whom we lend the paper. The Agricultural press has been one of the leading in struments iu producing prosperity at the North. Hence, some of these papers count their subscribers, not by tens, but, literally, by hundreds and thous ands: Their proprietors have the meant in consequence of this immense circu lation, to scatter their papers broadcast in Europe. The attention of the for eign capitalist, farmer and laborer is arrested. Hence, they flock to the North in countless numbers, therein* keeping landed estate continually ad vancing in value. The war has left little else to us in the way of property, but two things, our lauds and our brains. With the right use of these two grand resour ces, we may yet achieve more than our former prosperity.— The Plantation. Mule Artillery. Out in a certain Western fort, some time ago, the Major conceived the idea that artillery might be used effectively in fighting the Indians by dispensing with gun carriages and fastening the eonnon upon the backs of mules. So he explained' his views to the com mandant, and it was determined to try the experiment. A howitzer was selected and strapped up3n an ambulance, with the muzzle pointed toward the tail.—When they had secured the gun and loaded it with ball catridge, they led that calm and steadfast mule out on the bluff, and set up a target in the middle of the river to practice at. The rear of the mule was turned toward the target, and he was backed gentlely up to the edge of the bluff. The officers stood around in a semi-eirle, while the Ma jor went up and inserted a time luse in the tuch-lrole of the howitzer. When the fuse was ready, the Major lit it and retired. In a minute or two the hitherto unruffled mule heard the fizzing back there on his neck, and it made him uneasy He reached his head around to ascertain what was going on, and as he did so his body turned and the howitzer began to sweep around the horizon. The mule at last became excited, and his curiosity grew more intense and in a second or two he was stand ing with his four legs in a bunch, making six revolutions a minute, and the howitzer, understand, threatening death to every man within half a mile. The commandant was observed to climb suddenly up a tree; the lieuten ants were seen sliding over the bluff into the river, as if they didn’t care at all about the high price of uniforms; the sergant began to throw up breast works with his bayonet, and the Major rolled over the ground and groaned. In two or three minutes, there was a puff of smoke, a dull thud, and the mule—oh! where was he? A solitary jackass might have been seen turning successive back-summersaults over the bluff, only to rest at anchor, finally, wit'll his howitzer at the bottom of the rvier, while the ball went off toward the tort, hit the chimney in the Major’s quarters, rattled the -adobe bricks down into the parlor and frightened the Major’s wife into convulsions. They do not allude to it now, and no report of the experiment was ever sent to the War Department. The Loss by the Rebellion. —The Superintendent of the Census estimates the loss of population by the late re bellion as follows: Direct loss from wounds and disease, 500,009; addi tional Confederate lo£s, 350,000; in diret loss by the withdrawal of 1,500,- 000 men from domestic life, and the consequent diminution of births, 1,- 235,000 ; loss by the check given to imigration, 1i54.,000; retardation of ihcrease in the colored population, •562,000—t0ta1, 3,000,000. &ST Billings has turned weather prophet. Witness the following: “ When roosters are observed before daylite in the morning, soreing amung the klouds, and uttering lamentashuns, then look out for sum sudden weath er. When you see 13 geese, walkin in jun file, and toeing in, yu kan deliber ately bet yure last surviving dullar on a hard winter, and a grate fluctousness during the next seas<m in the price of cow-hide boots. When spiders are seen climbing up the wall backwards, and frogs cough az tho they had the luesups, look out fur rain; this iz also a sure sign that chiL dreu will have the measles light. If bees hang around their hives, and mules are seen in a brown study, a storm ov sum kind iz cooking, and yu will notis the market for herring is, very shifty. Jist before p heavy sno storm ov 3 foot deep, chimbly swallows are un common skase, and in the moral world there iz a grate lazyuess in the agytashuu of the temperance ques* tion. If pigs squeal in the night, and grasr hoppers cum oph ov their roost, and mingle in a flee fight, yu may hope for high winds in a few weeks, and also the typus fever in yur naborhood. ” — 1 To bring up a child in the way he should CfA. frgt.ja] m-?v T*/ V urri?l£ C* ~ V 4 How a Man Feels When Freez in*. Last night, Dr. J. T. McMillian, a young dentist of this place, who was returning from a visit to North Mid dletown. a small country village of this county ( situated about ten miles northeast of here), was found bva ne gro man employed by Mr. Frank ord, who was returning home from Paris, about halfpast nine o’clock, in an insensible condition, and almost fro zen to death. W e give the doctor’s own account of his journey, and his miraculous escape from the icy clutches ot the grim monster: “ I started from North Middletown at halfpast six o’clock, with sufficient wrapping, as I thought, to protect me from cold. After having proceeded about three miles on my journey ray I feet became very cold. By stamping my feet upon the floor of the buggy I imagined 1 was perfectly warm, as my feet troubled me no longer and the | cold sensation through my body ceas~ ed. I, however, felt dull and sleepy, like a man who is drunk. I didn’t care for anything. At this point I believe I began to freeze, and ought t > have known it, but felt so comfort able that I did not examine my situa tion. After I had driven about three miles further iny hat was blown oft’, but being, in a hurry to reach Paris, I did not stop to hunt for it. When I had proceeded, perhaps a mile further, letting the reins lie iu the button of the buggy, and paying no attention to my driving, my horse shied off the side of the road and ran upon a rock pile. I then attempted to get the lines and pull him oft’, when I discov ered I had lost the entire use of my right, and could barely use the left hand; with this one I atDunpted to pull him off the rocks, but the buggy wheels being locked, I could not do it. I then got out of my buggy, and in doing so struck the bridge of my nose across the wheel and cut it severely. I then went to the head of the horse, took hold of the bit and attempted to pull him around, but he would not move. I then commenced to unhar ness him, with the expectation of pull ing the buggy off the rocks myself, feeling all the time very sleepy. When I had almost completed the task of unhitching the horse from the buggy the desire for sleep became so great that I could bear it no longer, and I laid down upon the rocks by the side of the horse and went to sleep. I must have lain there some fifteen or thirty minutes, when I was aroused by the boy who found me. Upon his asking me where lie should take me, I told him to Paris, still not being aware of my critical condion. Upon arriving in Paris my feet were put in to cold water, which entirely, I think, cured them, as they do not hurt me this morning. My left hand does not give me much pain, and I think will be all right in a few days; but my light hand was badly frozen, nothing seemed to do it any good, and lam afraid I shall lose three, if not four, of my fin gers. Last night when I arrived, in Paris 1 could give no account of my self, but this morning 1 remember ev ery incident.” —Cincinnati Enquirer. Immortality.—a How ‘beautiful the •following gem from the pen of the late Geofg'j D. Prentice, and how hap py the heart that can see these beau ties as he port ray’s them:— “Why is it that the rainbow and the cloud come over us with a beauty that is not of earthy and-then pass away, and leave us to muse on their faded loveliness? Why is it that the stars which hold their nightly festi vals around the midnight throne, are placed above the reach of our limited faculties, forever mocking us with their unapproachable glory? And why is it that bright forms of human beauty are presented to our view and then taken from us, leaving the thou sand streams of affection to flow back in alpine torrents upon our hearts. We are born to a higher destiny than earth. There is a realm where the rainboow never fades—where the stars will be set, but before us like islands that slumber on the ocean, and where the beautiful being that passes before us like a meteor will stay in our presence forever,” At a recent trial the counsel for the prosecution after severely cross exam ining a witness, suddenly put on a look of severity and exclaimed: “Now, sir, was not an effort made to induce you to tell a different story?” “ A dif ferent story from what I have told, do you mean?” “Yes, sir; several peisons have tried to get me to tell a different story from what I have told, but they couldn’t.” “Now, sir; upon your oath, I wish to know who those persons are." “ Well, you’ve tried abmt as hard as any of them.” A man having been rendered deaf by the whistle of a locomotive, the engineer of the train was surprised on his return to the station to observe eleven bald-headed men in a line by the track, with a served injunction to ‘do your daradest.” Thev were all married Humorous. An editor out West gays if time i$ money he is willing to exchange a lit tle of his for cash. An Irish lover remarked that it was a comfort to be alone, “ especially when vour swate-heart is widyou.” ‘ A man who sat upou a paper of car pet nails the other day, said they re minded him painfully of the iu-come tacks. In reply to a paper which called General Sherman “ the coming utan,’ a Savannah paper says it hopes that he is not coming that way again. A verdant old lady in New Jersey thinks the ice crop will be good this year, because there hasn’t been much frost to injure it. Romantic Amelia (to her betrothed young doctor)—“ Look, dear, such a beautiful sunset! The sky is all crim son." Unromantic doctor—“ Ya-as appears to have had a mustard plaster ou.” A young Alabama lady, on being told that her lover had been suddenly killed, cried: “Oh, that splendid gold watch of his ! Give me something to remember him by.” An Irishman recently soloquized: “ What a waste of money to be buy ing mate when you know the half of it is bone, while you can spend it for rum that hasn’t a bone in it.” A genius out West has been mak ing che; tnuts out of sweet potatoes. He is a brother to the old gentleman who put handles to prickly pears and then sold them for curry-combs.

A curate having been overhauled by his bishop for attending a ball, the former replied, “My lord, I wore a mask.” “Oh—well!” returned the bishop; “ that puts anew face on the affair.” “You bachelors ought to be taxed,’’ said a lady to a resolute evader of the matrimonial noose. “ I agree with you, madam,” was the reply; “bachelorism is a great lux ury.” A lady who was suffering under a slight indisposition told her husband that it was with the greatest difficulty she could breath, and the effort dis tressed her exceedingly, “I wouldn’t try, my dear,” soothingly responded the husband; A young gentleman of high posi tion and faultless fashion about town, palliates bis oonduet in jilting a young lady to whom he was supposed to be engaged? by saying that her lip curl ed naturly and her hair didn’t. One Sunday evening recently, a Methodist preacher in lava advised the sisters to mortify Satan by giving their jewelry to the church on the next Sabbath evening. The result was a galvanized watch and three brass fin ger rings. “ They are a mean set ol sinners,” said the parson. Mrs. Partington in illustration of the proverb, “ a soft answer turneth away wrath,” says, “that it is better to speak parogorically of a person, than to be all the time flinging epitaphs at him, for no good corne3 to nobody that nev er speaks no good to no one.” P A German- thus describes an acci dent: “Vonce, along vile ago, I went intos mine apple orchard to climb a bear tree to get some peaches to make mine vrow a plump-budding mit; and when I gets on the tobermost branch I vail from the lowermost limb, mit von leg on both sides of the fence, and like to stove mine outsides in. “Madam,” said a cross-tempered pysician to a patient, “ If women were admitted to paradise their toDgues would make it purgatory.” “And some pysician s, if allowed to practice there,” replied the lady, “ would make it a desert waste."
