An Item Every Man Should Read.
W e have probably all of us met
with instance:? when a word- heedless
spoken against the reputation of a
female has been magnified by malici
ous minds, until the cloud has become
dark enough to overshaddow her
whole existence: To those who are
accustomed—not necessarily from bad
motives, but from thoughtfullness— to
speak lightly of females, we recom
mend three “hints” as worthy of con
sideration*.
Never use a lady’s name in an im
proper place, at an improper time, or
mixed company.
Neve r make any assertions about her
that you think are untrue, or allusions
that you feel that she would blush to
hear.
When you meet men who do not
scruple to make use of a womans name
in a wreckless and unprincipled man
ner, shun them for they are the very
worst members of the community—
men lost fio every feeling of humanitv.
Many a good woman’s character has
been ruined and her heart broken, bv
a lie; manufactured by some villian
and repeated where it should not have
been, and in the presence of those
whose little judgement could not deter
them from circulating the foul and
bragging report. A slander is soon
propogated, and the smallest thing de
rogatory to a woman’s character will
fly in the wing of the wind and mag
nify as it circulates, until its mon
strous weight crushes the poor, unfor
tunate victim.
Respect the name of a woman fur
your mother, and as you would have
their name untarnished and their lives
unembittered by the slanderer’s biting
tongue, heed the ill that your words
may bring upon the mother, or sister,
or the wife of some fclN"' creature,
lto\V A I>UNCE jBeCASIE A StATES
mak. —The following story is told of
the late Dr. Salem Towne and Wil
liam L. Many: In his yoUrtli he (Dr,
Towne) was a teacher of youth. Otic
day, seventy odd years ago, a boy was
brought to him, of whom the account
given was that he was an incorrigible
dunce—that none of bis masters had
been able to make anything of him;
and ho was brought Mr. Towne as a
last experiment, before apprenticing
him to <t mechanical trade. The next
morning Mr. Towne proceeded to cx
amine him, preparatory to entering
upon his instruction At the first
mistake lie made the boy dodged on
one side, with every sign of terror. —
Why do you do that?” asked the mas
ter. “Because I was afraid you were
going to strike me.’ “"Why should
you think so?” “Because I have al
ways been struck whenever I made a
mistake. “You need never fear be
ing struck by me,” said Mr. Towne.
“That is not my way of treating boys
who cfo as well as they can.” The
lad very soon improved rapidly under
this new treatment, so that Mr. Towne
advised his father to give him a liberal
education. The father could hardly
believe the report at first, but was
convinced and complied with the good
master’s suggestion. The result was
that Win. L. Marcy became an emi
nent lawyer, one ot the Supreme
Judges of New York, Governor,
United States Senator and Secretary
of War and of State.
“Charley, have you been doing any
thing to the piano while I was out? —
Some of the keys won’t work at all.'
No, mn, I didn’t do anything to it :
but Tom said there was a mouse in it,
so I got him to hold up the top while
I put the cat and dog in to catch it,
and they made such an awful row L
thought sure the mouse was a goner ;
but if the old thing won’t work, per
haps the mouse is in there yet.”
‘See there!’ exclaimed a returned
Irish soldier to a gaping crowd, as he
exhibited with some pride a hat with
a bullet hole in it. Look at that hole
will you? You see, that if it had been
a low crowned hat I should have been
killed outright !’

CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAYJDIORNING, JULY 19, 1872.
Perilous Predicament.
A sti anger, who claimed to be from
Carroll county, and in search of the
“Cross Roads,” upon Stone Mountain,
uent up there last Friday evening, as
he says, “to see the sun set and the
moon rise,” and celebrate the sight,
w ith a bottle of whisky. 1-Ie celebrated.
About 9 o clock, he began to hunt
his way down in the dark on the very
steep side. W lien the descent became
exceedingly interesting, he pulled oif
his boots, and left with them his al
most empty bottle. Shortly afterward
lie slipped fifteen or twenty feet, al
most perpendicularly down, and lodged
on a small offset in the solid rock side.
The place was but a few feet long and
narrower across. Immediately below
him was a precipice several hundred
leet deep. Return unaided from
above, was utterly impossible.
Here he remained grasping the rock
through Friday night, and in the broil
ing sun, against the bare precipice all
day Saturday till nearly dark.
About 4 o’clock, Mr. Steward, who
farms- near the North base of the
mountain,- having, noticed a white ob
ject during the day, in the crevice
aforesaid, walked over nearer for a
better view, and was hailed by the
unfortunate man, who shouted that
he would give all he had in the world
if he could be rescued. Ropes were
speedily got in town, and that adven
turous anrl humane gentleman, Mr. F.
P. Julian, descended to him and
brought him up safely. No apparent
injury had been inflicted by the fall,
except that the feet were badly cut
on the rocks. The rescued man had
but little to say, and came next clay
to this city.
The moral is very simple : Don’t
try to sec double by the use of liquor,
the sight of the sun setting and the
moon rising’on the perpindicular side
of Stone Mountain, and subsequently,
start down in the dark.— Atlanta Sun.
When the Da uk Comes.— A little
girl sat at twilight, in her sick moth
er's room busily thinking. All- day
site had been full ©4 fun and noise,
and had many times worried her poor,
tired mother.
“ Ma,” said the little girl, what do
you suppose makes me get over my
mischief and begin to act good just
about this time every night ? ”
Ido not know, my dear. Can you
tell why ? ”
“ Well, I guess it’s because this is
when the dark comes. You know I
am a little afraid of that. And then
ma, I beg into think of all the naughtv
things I’ve done to grieve you, and
that perhaps you might die before
morning; and so I begin to act good.
“Oh ! ” thought I, “how many of
ns wait till the dark comes, in the form
of sickness or sorrow, or trouble of
some kind, before we begin to act
good !” How much better to be good
while we are enjoying life’s bright
sunshine! and then, “when the dark
comes”—as it will, in a measure, to
all—we shall be ready to meetit with
out fear.”—Ex.
Somethin" for the G ires.—l fa young
man greets you in a loud, free amlhasty
tone; if he know precisely where to
put his hand on»his hat; it he stare you
in llie eye, with bis wide open; if lie
turn bis back to you to speak to another;
if he tell you who made his coat; if he
squeeze your hand; if he eat heartily
in your presence; if, in short, he sneeze
when you are singing, criticise your
curls, or fail to be foolish in fifty ways
every hour, don’t tall in love with him
for the world. He only admires you,
let him do of say what he will.
On the other hand, if lie be merry
with every one else, but quiet with
you; if he be anxious to see that your
tea is sufficiently sweetened and your
dear person well wrapped up when
you go into the cold ; if he talk very
low, if his cheeks are red, and his nose
only*blushes, it is enough. If he romp
with your sister, sigh like a pair of
bellows, look solemn when you are
addressed by another gentleman, and,
in fact, if he be the most still, awkward,
stupid, yet anxious of all your male
friends, you may “go ahead,” and
make the poor fellow happy.
J&2T A young Irish servaut girl com
ing from Albany recently, in one of the
night steamers, had the ill luck to lose
the recommendation which had been
given lier on leaving her last place.—
An Irishman, learning the causeof her
distress, and being able to write, gave
her the following, which she presented
to a friend : “ This is to say that katy
O'brien had a good karacter when she
left albany, but she lost it on board
the vessel coming down from alba
ny.”
-
A person was boasting that lie
sprung from a high family.
“ Yes,” said a bystander, “I have
seen some of the same family so high
that their feet could not touch the
ground."
Nero and Grant—The Artist and
the Jockey,
South Carolina, under a govern
ment of Radical making, has drank
the bitter dregs of despotism, and
therefore we are not surprised to see
the intelligence of of that noble State
revolt at the misrule that prevails. In
regard to Grant the Charleston Cour
ier speaks thus :
Nero fiddled while Rome was burn
ing, and the tyrant has lived in his
tone infamy. Nero, however, in spite
of his crimes, was an artist. lie lov
ed music, and was a man of varied ac
complishments. lie aided in des
troying the liberty of Rome and for
med a link in the chain to tyrants
who first destroyed the liberty, mid
afterwards undermined the power of
his country. He had, however, the
education of a gentleman, and; though
he occasionally indulged in the luxu
ry of causing a murder to be commit
ted, he at least sought to veil the
crime and to screen himself from pub
lic odium..
Grant has done and is doing all that
Nero ever did. While the liberties
of the country are being undermined
he deserts lus post of duty at Wash
ington and amuses himself at Long
Branch. As Nero amused himself
with murder, Grant, following his ex
ample, has, through an unconstitution
al law, caused numbers of men to lan
guish and die in prison.
Nero did not, however, make the
Empire contemptible. The Roman
flag under his rule proudly compelled
the respect of the whole world. Grant
unlike his prototype, has made the
name of an American citizen the most
undesirable that a man can bear. In
our relations with England, under his
administration, our name has been
trailed in the dust, as is evidenced by
the recent dispatches from Geneva.—
His San Domingo job has brought
the blush of shame to the people of
the whole country; and but a few days
ago the telegraph announced still am
other disgraceful failure in our nego
tiations with Spain, with regard to
the affair of Dr. HouarcL
Dr. Houard was released as an act
of courtesy to the United States; not
because President Grant indignantly
demanded his release as an American
zen unjustly imprisoned, as he should
have done.
Wc are not surprised that Grant
should prove inferior to Nero. It is
true that he was educated at West
Point, and that Nero was educated
by the greatest philosopher of his day.
Nero, however, profited in some res
pects by his education, while Grant
not only graduated without distinc
tion, but spent his time afterwards so
badly that he was compelled to leave
the army for drunkenness.
From another standpoint, the dis
tinction between the two men is even
greater, and the superority of Nero
over his imitator, Grant, can be more
readily understood when we remem
ber that Nero was, as we sai*l before
an artist, while Grant is nothmg but
a horse jockey. The graces and
charms of the studio surrounded the
one, in spite of his crimes, while the
other, with equal crimes, brings with
it nothing but the stench of the stable,
with which he offends the senses of
the world.
Going to Hangings.— The Colum
bus Enquirer is reminded otsometbing
good by the announcement of the
Lumpkin Telegraph that it suspended
a week tor its folks to enjoy the 4th
and the Spann hanging in Webster.
One Johnson Hooper edited the
East Alabamian in Chambers county
three or four centuries ago in the
early recollection of the editor of the
Enquirer. The mail boy who brought
the news Friday afternoon was always
tardy until an opportune hanging
brought him in time once. Hooper
was so tickled that he wrote an article
hoping that a negro or mail rider
would he hung every Friday. The
mail boy thus neatly replied;
“Mr. Ilupper—Ser—Yu think yu
done a mitty smart thing abusing the
male rider, But He let yu no He go to
see a nigger hung ivlieneVer I durn

JEST 5 A young lady once married a
man by (he name ot “Dust,” against
the wish of her parents. After a
short time they lived unhappily to
gether and she returned to her father’s
house; but he refused to receive her
saying: “Dust thou art, and unto Dust
thou slialt return.” And she “dust

Vance!
Among the popular men of the day
perhaps Vance, of North Carolina, is
one of the most influential in his State,
\ ance always talks to interest. He
has a homely, humorous way of put
ting things that is immensely taking.
V e have seen no cleverer presents
timi of the Greeley side of the ques
tion than the following from VanGe:
Wilson, N. C., June 29.—Gov
\ ance addressed a large and enthusi
astic meeting to-day. A great part
of his speech was devoted to national
affairs, lie took strong ground for
Greeley as the best means of securing
real peace. He said that the South
by supporting a life long opposition
of this section and its policy, would
convince the North of their earnest
desire to forget the bitterness of the
past, as the Northern Republicans,
by offering, us Greeley and Brown on
so liberal a platform as that adopted
at Cincinnati, had convinced the
South that a large body of our former
enemies were desirous of shaking
hands with us. For these reasons
the South would support Greeley
cheerfully, notwithstanding the many
objections to him in the hope of inau
gurating an era of better feeling in
the land, and of starting to return the
Government to a constitutional ad
ministration. He hoped there would
be unanimity at Baltimore, and was
sure North Carolina would give Gree
ley and Brown a large majority if en
dorsed there by the Democrats, lie
illustrated the position by a humor
ous story of an old preacher into
whose hymn book some bad boy bad
pasted the old song—
Old Grimes is dead,
That good old man :
We ne’er shall see him more.
On opening his book one day be
fore a sermon, his eyes fell on this
hymn. He read the first verse and
stopped with surprise. He wiped his
specs and read it again, and said,
“Brethren, 1 have been singing out of
this book for forty years ; I have nev
er recognized this as a hymn before;
but it’s here, and I aint agwine to go
back on my book now, so please' raise
the tune, and we’ll sing it through if
it kills us.”
Now said the Governor, we have
been singing Democratic hymns for
forty years down here, and we have
never recognized Greeley as a Demo
crat before ; but if the Baltimore
Convention puts him in our hymn
book we’ll sing him through if it kills
us. This was received with prolong
ed applause. The Governor spoke
over two hours, to the great delight
of the audience, and was followed by
Senator Ransom for an hour in the
same style. They both claim North
Carolina for the Democracy by 21,000
majority.
Another Sample of Mule An
Tillery. —'The following is related in
the local column of the Cleveland
Herald :
“An old but unusually thoughtful
farmer, residing near enough to this
city to do all his trading here, went in
to his corn field last week to hoe his
corn, and in order to give a cr<sw or
two a salute should he see any, strap
ped his double barrelled shot gun on
his back. As he warmed up to his
work he caused his hoc handle to circu
late with more than its wonted rapid
ity about him and finally the end of
the hoe handle hitting the trigger of
the gun, touched it off. The old far
mer felt a gill or two of shot pass
through his scalp, and supposing he
had been shot by an assassin in the
rear, he, though wounded, siezed his
gun, and wheeling suddenly around,
blazed away at the supposed shooter.
He was still more surprised not to see
a man but his dog writhing in agonies
of dissolution. lie is out now hoeing
corn again, but bis head is covered
with bandages and plaster, and his
dog does not frisk about his heels as

Someone says, I know a boy who
created a sensation by breaking in up
on the gravity of his guests in this
wise: Entering the room, he com
menced, “The class in Natural Histo
ry are invited to w itness a living curi
osity. Even the learned Agassiz lias
never explained the reason why, if you
take a guinea pig up by the tail, bis

They all rush out and behold the little
fellow with black and orange spots in
the kitchen as announced. “ Let us

Swallowing Greeley.
The following is from a speech by
Major Wm. E. Nelson at the Deca
tur, Illinois, Democratic mass meet
ing :
It is truly refreshing to note the
late grow th of respect of Grant parti
sans for the Democratic party. Their
solicitude for its interest is getting to
be immense. They kindly propose
its course of action for it. They say
to us. “Now is the time for the
Democrats ! If ever you had a chance
now is the time ! \ou ought to run a
straight ticket, by all means !” They
ask us: “Are you Democrats going to
let a faction, a few sore heads—call
ing themselves Liberal Republicans—
swallow the Democratic party f
Now, gentlemen, I want to answer
that question by putting one or two
to my interrogator. I want to ask
him : “Did you ever see a sardine
swallow a whale ?” If he says he did,
then I want him to describe the pro
cess, and. tell where the sardine began
on the whale when he commenced
swallowing ; whether, like a man he
commenced at the head, or slipped
around and commenced at the tail?
And, when ho has told me how it
was done, then I want to ask him if
the sardine, after it has swallowed the
whale, didn’t have a good deal of
whale in it—if it didn’t, in fact, look
a good deal like a whale itself?
They ask us again : “Can you,
Democrats swallow Greeley ?” I con
fess I am somewhat out of practice in
this swallowing business. I haven’t
swallowed anything that tasted like
a President of the United States for
nearly twenty-four years. I remem
ber that in 1848 I managed to get
down a Major General of the United
States army and a horse ; he was a
white horse, too—they called him
“Old Whitie.” Having been so un
accustomed to the thing, I am not al
together confident of my swallowing
capacity, and don’t want to say that I
can swallow Greeley, nor do I want
to say that, with a Liberal share of
Democratic encouragement and assis
tance, I could not, in November next
swallow an old editor and something
white —say an old white hat.
JS&2T’ “Is my face dirty ?” asked a
young lady from the backwoods while
seated with her aunt, at the dinner ta
ble, on a steamboat running from
Cairo to New Oilcans. “Dirty ! No.
Why did you ask ?” “Because
that insulting waiter insists upon put
ting a towel beside my plate. I’ve
thrown three under the table, and
every time he comes around he puts
another one before me.”
