About twenty five ears aujo a young man from that Sta e took a horseback ride in Virginia, where his father erne from, and on h s way he met a man and his family ten ov ing West, who were so poor as to be almost reduced to starvation. He had compassion on the wretched g oup and gave them a twenty dollar bill with which to reach their journeys end. In about fifteen years the young man received a letter from the -ante man he had befriended, saying he was a prosperous merchant in Sou'hern Kentucky, and a twenty dollar b 11 to pay his loan. After another ten years, which in cluded she great rebellion and it*! ter t * • ruination, he was elected to the L >wer House of the Kentucky Legislature, aud being a man of talent and i ithi enee, was chosen Speaker, in the con test for which he had noticed a strati ger, and one of the other party, was his strongest supporter. IDs ctriosi ty was aroused by this and he asked the man’s motive, as he never had, to his Knowledge, seen him before. “ Sir,” replied the member, “You will recall, when I mention it, a little scene occur red when you were a little boy on your way to Virginia. It was you who saved my wife from starv .lion. She told me time, and again, that nev er did a morsel of food taste so sweet, so un liter ably delicious, as that you gave her then. She was just six years bid at that time but when shi saw your name during the late canvass among the prominent probable candi dates for the Speakership, she laid down the law as how I was to vote. This is all. Neither she, nor her father and mother, brother and sisters, nor myself can ever forget you.” No Home, No Dome What a misfortune 3 How earl the thought! Thee are thousands who know nothing .if the blessed influence of comfortable homed merely because of a want of thr It, or it om dissipated habits. Youth spent in frivolous amusements and and o>kl iziug associatitns, lea ting them it mid dle age, when the physical and intel lectual man should be I t its g atest vigor, enervated and without an r 1 .till able ambition. Friends long sin e lost, confidence gone, and nothi ig to look to in old age but a mere toh-ia tion in the community wher tiny should be ornaments. No home t > fly t.. when wearied «ith the struggl s inci dent to life; no wife to cheer th in in their despondency; no children to a mse them, and no virtuous househ *.d to give rest to the joys of life. All is blank, and there is no hope or succor except that, which is given out by hnml* of pn\ate or public charities. When the family of the industrious and Sober citizens gather around the cheerful fire of a wintry day, the home less man is seeking a shelter in the cells of station house, or begging for a night’s rest in the out-building of one who started in life at the same time, with no gieater advantages; but honesty and industry build up that home, while dissipation destroyed ti.e other. Newspapers.— Dr. Johnson, wl en in the fullness of years and knowledge, said; “ I never take up a newspaper without finding something I would have deemed it a loss not to have seen; never without deriving from it infrac tion and amusement.” The newspa per in Johnson’s time were meagre enough compared with those of to-day. Now a yearly newspaper volume is a perfect encyclopedia. CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL 5, 1872. From the Atlanta Constitution. A Strai ge Romanc . We have frequently had occasion in these columns to show how the stern records of actual life furnish ro mance outstripping all possible fiction, ihe recent de;.th of a distinguished lawyer in Sun Franiesco, a Mr. Harvey By me, lias brought to light one ofthe most extraordinary and startling epi sode.* of real drama ever record* and. It is a story as strange as it is touching. Matilda Heron, who has recently been brought before the public atten tion by htr failure on the boards* and allcdged madness, was one ofthe most famous actresses ofthe day, twenty years ago. Her beauty and genius were wonderful, and she starred through the country with unsurpassed success. Young, lovely, brilliant and social, she was ft ted like a queen. She received a homage that was nev er exceeded. In San Francisco she captivated this Mr. Byrne, then a brill iunt and promising young lawyei of high social standing and lofty character. He won her heart, addressed and be came engaged to her with the under standing that she was to fill her stage engagements then made, wed him and retire from the stage. His impatience could not wait. He hastened on to New York a id they were privately manied, June I>, 1H54. Enjoying a honeymoon of only five diys, he was called back home by business, and left her to finish her engagements. At their conclusion he went for her. He remained vith her one night, and then without explanation left her forever. He became a moody, melancholy man. lie gave no explanation of his course. Hi* wooe l his profession with redoub led energy, winning its highest hon ors and weightiest emoluments. He kept hi gnat sorrow to himself. His sensitive, c ivalrous nature felt the blow keenly. His life was tinged to its very close. The c tt. e of his leaving so sudden ly the w man he adored and wtddid was sai to be certain information he learned of her inconstancy. The tempta oi of her da igemm ad d.-z zling li.‘ weie too much for her. She yielded 1.. the glitteiing evils that ac cornpa id i*er shining pre-eminence. Her subsequent career has been most romantic. In an unfortunate hour, in the very zeni h of her she became infatuated with a German name l Schoepel, whom she married, He \v (hied her tor her wealth, a id soon, •>v his unkindness, revealed his motive. Anguish* dat the diseovery, she gave him all of her propei ty, hous es, je .els, dresses, money, aid leaving the -tage, she went to teaching for support. lier health broke and her beauu add. She lived broken-heart ed and tft poverty. The brilliarut star disa -peated from public attention, and was forgotten for years. L ist \ear she reappeared upon the eta c a ainst the advice of he friends, wh sa x what she d.d not r< alize, that her powers were gone. The result is kn >wn. tShe failed, and acted so wildly thu some said she was crazy, others dr ink. She bitterly denied the charg es, but attempted no farther perform anc ‘S Sh realized that the sceptre of hi' geuiu> was broken foiever. ihe p >.»r, imp veri.'htd, fad. and, sickly, hc ar-c. ushed woman had l<*st every s ark of her once proud and conquer i ig power. Some liberal theatrical trieuds gave tier the benefit of a performance that i ( aliz, and §3,TJX This sav* and her from want A few days ago Mr. Byrne died, e iving large property to the amount of $2 JJJ.OMJ the most of which he will ed to a friend, with wh > n he long ago m de ariii a tic b lgai.i, that the one dvi ig first should leave the other his estate. The will la> been admitted to probate. Uod v the California law, the husband can only will half of his property away, acquired since his mar riage, if he leaves a widow. She gets the other half. The paper* till us that the poor old woman is hastening to San Francisco to claim the half of her property as his widow. The proof of marriage and absence of divorce will give it to her, notwithstanding the subsequent marriage to Schoepel, which was void, and cannot defeat her rights as a wid ow though it would leave her liable to indictment for bigamy if any one should press it. It is certainly a strange and affect ing tale oflove, disappointment, pride, crime, vicissitude, misery and misfor tune. A man out West was offered a plate of macaroni soup, but declined it, de claring that they couldn’t play any biled pipestems on him. — «♦»— An Irishman recently soliloquized: “ What a waste of money to he buying mate when you know the half of it is bone, while you can spend it for rum that hasn’t a bone in it.” From the La Grunge Reporter. Our New Yo k Letter. New York, March 18, 1872. I suppose there is no metropolis in the world which so thoroughly repre sents the heterogeneous character of a nation, and absorbs the products of its genius and industry, as does this self same city ofNew York. It impossible for anv observant man to walk down Broadway aid not be iuteres ed first, in the number of “notorieties’* who will be pointed out as “ lions” of the town; and secondly, in the curious ob stinacy with which nature appears to preserve the peculiarities of people from different portions of the world. It is equally impossible for a stranger not to feel that while in New York he is a mere nonentity; that whatever niav be the pomp and circumstances of his surroundings at home, lie is here only a n.ite m a mighty cheese; yet withal so independent that he can explore where he may please, and no man, wo man or child will be the wiser. “He pass his money and he take3 hb choice." If religiously inclined, hemavenjoy a Methodist brother of the go< and old school; or, on the other hand, may see the Almighty worshiped dra natically with all the adjuncts except the foot lights, and preached at by fashionable pan-ons who part their hair in the mid dle, wear the latest sacerdotal uniform,' and look a* well satisfied as if they had a fat contract with their aristocrat ic parisioners to drive them to Heav en at the last convenient moment in a ■coach and four. If a lawyer, he van step into court and observe John Gra ham perform legal gymnastics Lefoie the bar, and now and then bushwhack the judge on the bench If an aitist, he may visit the studio, on Tenth street, where fifty of his fellows are working for and ar lift? on every sort of picture, from a small-sized bumble-bee to Gignoux’s last sketch ofthe Rocky Mountains. If he would like to gam ble a liitle, why he has only to step around the corner in Wall street, and be accompanied by any number of young gentlemen, fr-sh from the Ful ton st e t prayer meeting, and first class members of* the Christian Asso ciation, who in fifteen minutes will take him in and bring h; a out oh a stock speculation t at will leave him as cleanly picked as a ca i vass-baek duck ready for the spit. As an idler, he can lounge on Bio d.vay, where fashion aud fraility a. e the Siamese twins of the sidewalk; aud, if his tastes are not too refined a policeman will show him wretchedness enough in five minutes walk from his hotel to make a series of unadulterated nightmares that, will last for lifetime. The practical man will be attracted, by other things. He will see in New York tlie genius of his country in a nut-shell; and, how in every depart meat, machinery is taking the place of muslce. He will go to bed in a machine which five minutes before looked like it magnificent book-ca-e; he will be gently turned out n the morning—by machinery; his head will be brushed in the barber shop—by machinery; his clothes are made by machinen, that gives employment to a hundred thousand working women; aid lie may cook a bachelor break last on a stove that is its own seivant, and times the condition of the hot rolls by clock-work, lie may even make books by machinery, for the Journeyman Printers of New York have formed a Co-operative Associa lion at No. 3J Beekman street, in which every member is a cog-wheel in a system that has reduced the price of every kind of printing at the same time that it turns out with rapidity the most superb styles of work Go where you please, in fact, and yon will find every species of device conceiva ble that can serve a useful purpose as an auxiliary to human comfort, from a pocket twine cutter to a cotton gin or steam engine, Th v are even Wilding railroad; by machinery, and under its magic vil lages are springing up with a spied that recalls the fairy work of Aladdin’s lamp, It is only the other day that A. T. Stewart pu c iased i ight th u sand acres of land on Long Island, and al eady twenty-five or thiity miles of streets are graded; shade trees are planted, block* are fenced in, and a large hotel, six hundred feet long and six stories high, is in process of con struction, besides many fine brick edi fices. Five months ago, there was no com munication between the north and south side of Long Island save by the old-fashioned dirt road. Yet before the flowers bud in May, twenty-two miles of rail wid be laid and no less than twelve beautiful villages will be brought within an horn’s ride of New York city. By machinery, the w T ork of three years will be compressed info about seven months. A portion of the way lies through a rocky spine or ri dje, which at first »cemed a bar- rier almost insurmountable. But at this juncture a well known railroad contractor, Mr James N. Smith, of Brooklin, stepped forward and saicl, “ Gentlmen, tnat hill is only a mile and a half across; I’ll guarantee to go thorugh it in ninety days.” It was thought to be an impossibility, but let him try. He at or.ee put a steam ex cavator at work on either side ad commenced operations. With a ton of coal a day, they performed the woik of three hundit»d men, and ai*e now within a few rods of each other, puff ing and b!< wing while they burrow deep into the heart ofthe mountain. 1 drove out the other day to see these monsters at woak, and the first objet” that attracted my attention was the six foot niillicniave contractor, MY. Smith, with his broadcloth coat thrown aside, (hiving a drill with a twenty pound sledge. I asked him if he v*as “tak ing his constitutional?" “Not in that style,” was the leplv; “I’m only teaching this man how to economize his muscles and work to advantage.” The answer seemed to illustrate the genius of the place. I looked down the deep cut at the machine. It was not much larger than a small cabin—a sort of young house on wheels, but those wheels with the motive power in the heart of the engine could give it a speed of six or eight miles an hour A gigantic arm protruded from the front, at the end which was a gieat iron hand with sharp claws, and these were made to ascend and descend at the will of one man. The operator occupied a plat form lira the engine, and with but a single contrivance—a stirrup for h's foot and a lever for his hands—he moved tons. I remember that a great rock was bulging from the hard knotted face of the batik, which it seemed as if noth ing but a blast of powder cotild stir; a”d t was curious to observe how dett Iv those large iron fingers cleaned out, first, th»» dirt beneath; then removed the d’rt from the sides; then gent’y scraped the top; and fina'lv, taking a firm grip, shook the rock with a giant’s strength, until nature at last gave way to the art of man, and the immense boulder weighing ten or t welve tons was lift*d from its bed with as little power apparently as a boy would lift a marble, swung around and deposited in a dumpear by its side. At e: ch operation of the shovel on the pure < a: th, a ton and a halt is forever f om its bi and. A train of forty or fifty cars wist on the machine, and it was curious to oh serve the almost human intelligence with which the horses, trained to their work, dashed up on a run, each with an empty ear to give it impetus, and of their own accord went hack, turne and presented the traces to be hooked on the next. Let the last words be of women! Mothers aid teachers will be glad to h am. that a book has just been pub lish. and by E. J. Hale & Cos., which fills a groove in the nursery and c 00l oom never before occupied, t'hildien ask ten thousand questions, aid it is intended to answer tin m. It is apt ly called, “Wisdom T<cth for Litt’e People,” arranged by Mrs. F. G. dc Fontaine. S*xty cents remitted to publishers will secure it, or it may had at the bookstores. Fancy His Feelings. —The feeling* of a near sighted man who finds he has kissed his hand to the wrong lady. The finding your pocket-book gone just as you aie about leaving a strange hotel, with no time to spare to reach the cars. The rapidity with which sane) stocks decline when you go in, and rise when y>u sell out. The sen sation from a lady's boot heel (present style) when she steps on your foot ac cidently. The price charged at some of the hotels on “the European style.” The skill with which the “gentleman ly* barkeeper gives you short change. Getting on horseback for the first time in your life. The amount of your gas ; a:.d plumbing bills. Your motner in law’s remarks if you do not go to the mountains or sea shore during the i season. VYhat “Ultramontane” Means.— The tevra “ultramontane’ is much used in books and newspapers, and but little understood. It is one ct those words which, from representing a locality, has come to represent a re ligious beliet aid political party Ul tramontane literally means beyond the mountains. When used as a political term it refers to Italy and the political and religious tenets of the Church of Home. Ultrainontanism is a be’iet in the unbounded supremacy of the Pope aud the union of the Church with the State. Repre en’atives of these prin ciples, in whatever nation of Europe they aie. found, are called ultramon tane3. In Spaitie, in Fiance, in Ger many and Austria the ultrainantane pßt ty has been a strong element in the direction of public affairs.—Balti more Sun., Ccuniing V weiity~fiwe. I found the cherished face of Maria Ann wreathed in smiles, the other evening, when I returned from my ar duous daily toil. (I am engaged as standing man at a saloon. So many candidates are treating, that the saloon keeper hires six of us to be treated.— VVe all drink with every candidate who comes in, and it makes busiuess pretty brisk.) Said my chosen one, “Joshua, I am afraid you do not always find me an angel in disposition." Said I, “That’s so—hie—my dear, I don't seldom find you ’n angle in—in anything." * “And, she added, “you are not al ways the most pleasant uian in the world.” I did not feel called on to reply. “Now,” said she, “read that.” She had cut an item from the col umns of some paper wherein a dement* ed writer told about some impossible woman who, being troubled with a bad temper, counted twenty-fiive every time she got provoked, and thus be came a sweet, amiable, and dearly loved ornament of the honse of her delighted husband. I read the article as well as the condition of my head would allow, and remarked “Bosh.” Maria Ann paid no attention to me but unfolded her plan. She said that every lime I got mad I should count twenty-five, and every time she got mad she would count twenty five. I asked her who the d—l she thought would pay oftr Vfcnt while we sat and counted twenty-live, over and over all day long.-Then she said I was always raising objections to her plans for our mutual improvement,and I said I was not, and she said I was enough to try the patience of a saint, and I said she was too, and she “came for me,” and 1 told her to count twenty-five ; but she forgot all about that, and tallied one in ir.y left eye. .. ~ Then I was going to remonstrate with the poker, and she told me to count twenty-five, and I said I would not; but I did before she had pulled more tnan half my hair out. Then she made me count twenty-five over and over, until I was out of breath and felt real pleasant and good-natured. So we went to supper. Now the cat was curled up in my chair, but l did not see it until I sat down ; and I did nut see it then, but I was pretty sure it was theve, in tact i knew it was there as well as I wanted to, and more too. I tclt inclined to rise up suddenly bu? aa I gathered to spring she brand ished the tea-pot and murmured ; “Joshua, your temper is rising ; count twenty-five or I’ll break your head,” and that cat drawing a map ot the Tenth Waid with htsr claws abound behind me with the streets and bound aries marked in my blood. I rose to explain, and said, “My dear—l—bui she caromed on n.y head with a well shot tea-cup, and sprinkled my face with a quart of hot tea, and I sat down ad counted twenty-five ; but it killed the cat. The old fellow died haid, thougn. I could fed him settle as his ujue lives went out one by one. A few day’s practice ot this rule, under the loving instruction of Maria Ann, ha enabled me to conquer my t: m i ir c m i 1 e . N body can get me u.ad now, iam in a alate of perpet ual calm and i want to see the man that wrote that story. I want to fit him for the hands of and undertaker, and make a demand for mourning goods among his friends. Then I can die happy—counting twenty-five. Apples for Human FooJ. With us tne value of the apple as an aiticle of food is far underrated.— Besides containing a large amount of sugar, mucilage, and other nutritive matter, apples contain vegetable acids aromatic qualities, etc., which act pow erfully in the capacity of refrigerants tonics aud antiseptics, and when free ly used at the season of mellow ripe ness they prevent debility, in ligestion and avert, without doubt, many of the “ills which flesh is heir to.” The op •uators of Cornwall, England, consider rpe app’es nearly as nourishing as bread and far more so than potatoes. In the year 18 )1 which was a year of scarcity—apphs in tend of being con verted into cider were sold to the poor, and the laborers asserted that they could “stand their work” on baked apples without meat; whereas a potato diet required either meat or some other substantial nutriment.— Toe F e»h and Gem ans use apj les extensively; so do the inhabitants of all the European nation. The labor ers depend Upon them as an article of so and, and frequently make a dinner of sliced apples and bread. There is no ruit cooked in as many and fferent ways ! iu our cou t y as apples, nor is there an Irak whose value, as an article of ! nutriment, is as great and so little ap- I predated.— Water Cure Journal.
