Hayes’ old Setting hen. “ Ther’s that old yellow lien a set ting again,” said Mrs. Ilays to lierson Timothy. ‘•Well, let her set, ,1 can stand it as long as she can,” was Tims irrev erent reply, as he continued to munch at a piece of cheese. “ 1 do wish you would try to be a little equinomical to cheese, Timothy. J’ve cut the very last of my every day lot, and its only the first of May. And now, as soon as you’ve done eating, I want you to go out and break up that hen. She’s setting on an old axe and two bricks now.” “ I hope shell batch ’em,” returned Tim. “ If she was set now, she’d hatch the fourth week in May. It’s a bad sign. Something always happens ar rer ii. Stop giggling, Helen Maria : by the time you got to be as old as ycr ma, ye’ll see furthur than you do now There was the Jenkins folks— their gray top-knot hatched the last of May, and Mrs. Jenkins she had the conjunction of the lungs, and would have died if they had’t killed a lamb and wrapped her in the hide while it was warm. That was all that saved her.” With such a startling proof of the truth and the omen before him, Tim othy finished his breakfast in baste and departed for the barn, from which he,seen returned, bearing the squalling biddy by.the legs. “ What shall Ido with her, moth er ? Site will get on again, and she’s cross as bedlam—she skinned my hands, and would be the dead) of me ij she could get loose.” “I’ve h.ern it said that it was a good plan to throw them up in the air,” said Mrs. Hayes. “ Aunt Peggy broke one of setting only three tifties trying. Spose’n you try it.” “ Up she goes, head or tail !” cried Tim, as he tossed the volcano sky ward. Lauda massy !” exclaimed Mrs. Hayes ; “ she’s coming down into pan of bread that I set out on the the great rock to rise ! Tim, it’s strange that you cant do nothing with out overdoing it.” “ Down with the traitors, up with the stars,” sang out Tim, elevating biddy again, with something less than a pint of batter hanging to her feet.’ “Good gracious me, wuss and wuss,” cried Mrs. Hayes, and Tim agreed with her, for the hen had come down on the y ell polished tile of Esquire Bennett, who happend to be passing, and the dignified old gentleman was the father of Cynthia Bennett, the young lady with whom Tim was dan gerously enamored. The Squire looked daggers, brushed oil* the dough with his handkerchief, and strode on in silence. “ Yes, but it’s going up again, said Tim, spitefully seizing the clucking biddy and tossing her at random into the air. Biddy thought it time to manifest her individuality, and with a loud scream she darted against the parlor window, broke through, knock ed down the canary cage, and landed plump in the silken lap of Mrs. Gray, who was boarding at the farm house. Mrs. Gray screamed witli horror, and starting up, dislodged biddy, who tlew at her reflection in the looking glass with an angry hiss. The glass was shattered and down came the hen, astonished beyond measure, against a vase ot flowers, which upset, and in falling, knocked over the stand - dish and deluged with water a pair of drab colored velvet slippers which Helen Maria was embroidering for her lover, Mr. James llenshaw. Helen entered the room just .as the mischief had been clone, and viewing the ruin, she at once laid it to her brother Timothy. She heard his step behind, and she flung the unfortunate hen full into his lace. There was a smothered oath, and the hen came b«ck with the force of a twenty pound shot. Helen was mad. Her eyes were neatly put out with the feathery dust and dough, and she went at Timothy with a true feminine zoal. She broke his watch-guard into a dozen pieces, crushed his dickey and began to pull his whiskers out by the roots, when she suddenly remembered that Tim jp.othy bad no whiskers to pull out by the roots. CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING* A UGUST 30, 1872. Rut, when she came to look closer, she perceived that the man that she had nearly annihilated was not Tim othy, but James Ilenshaw. Poor Helen burst into tears and tied into her chamber, the usual refuge for heroines, and James, after washing his at the kitchen sink, went home, sternly resolved never to marry a wo man with such a temper as Helen Hayes had. The hen, meanwhile, who is the heroine, returned to the barn to es tablish herself on the ruin of her nest, determined to set if the heavens fell. Mrs. Hayes soon discovered her* and she having heard that dipping in water would cure “broodiness/’ set torth for the brook with the fowl in her apron. Mrs. W eaver, an old lady of very quarrelsome temperament,who resided near, and was at -sword’s point with Mrs. Hayes, was just coming to the brook for a pail of good water, and spied the yellow head of the bird peeping out from Mrs. Hayes’ apron. “There!” she exclaimed, “Now I’ve found out what puzzled me to death nigh about a week. I’ve found out where that yellow pullet has gone to Mrs. Hayes, I allers knowed you were a wicked, desaleful woman, but I drdnt think you’d steal.” “Steal? me steal? who are you talking to, Mrs. Weaver?” said Mrs. Hayes, on her dignity. “ I’m Talking to you, niadame, that’s who I’m talking to ! You’ve stole my hen what I got over to Uncle Gillies, and paid for in sassengers.— She’s a real Dorking. Give her to me right here or I’ll use force/’ “ She’s my hen, and you toiicji her if you dare ! ” “ I’ll show you what I dare ! ” yell ed Mrs. Weaver, growing purple, and seizing the ilbstarred fowl by the tail, she gave a wrench and the tail came out in her hand. The sudden cessation of resistance upset Mrs. Weavers balance, and she fell backward into the brook, spatter ing the mud and astonished poliwogs in every direction. She was a spry woman and was soon on her feet again, ready to renew the assault. “ Give me my hen,” she cried, thrusting her list into Mrs. Hayes’ face. “ You old hag and hypocrite you ! ” and she made a second dive at the bird. The hen thought proper to show her colors, and uttering an unearthly yell, she flewjput of the covert square into the face of Mrs. Weaver, which she raked down with her nails until it resembled the pages of . a ledger, crossed aud recrossed with red ink. Mrs. Hayes caught a stick of brush wood from the fence —Mrs. Weaver did the same .aud a regular duel would probably have been fought if the bank of the creek had not suddenly given away and precipitated both the indig nant women into the water. Tli£ ladies shook themselves, and by consent went home. They have not spoken since. The hen disappeared, and was seen until three weeks afterwards, when she made her appearance, with eleven nice yellow chickens. She found some other fowls nest and had set in spite o.t_ fate. But although not broken up herself, she broke up two matches—for Cyn thia Bennett was not at home the next time Timothy called, and Mr. Hen shaw never forgave Helen for having such a temper. The Bane of the Republic. There can be no doubt that the prolific source of all our notable po litical corruptions is office seeking. Almost never does a political office come to a man in this country un sought ; and the exceptions are very rarely creditable to political purity.— When men are sought for, and adopt ed as candidates for office, it is, ninety nine times in every hundred, because they are available for the objects of a party. Thus it is that selfish or party interest, and not the public good, be comes the ruling motive in all politi cal preferment; and the results are* the legitimate fruit of the motive. Out of this motive spring all the intrigues, bargains, sales of influence and pat ronage, briberies, corruptions and crookedness that make our politics a reproach and our institutions a by. word among the nations. We are in the habit of calling our government popular, and of fancying that we have a good deal to do in the management ot our own affairs ; but we would like to ask those who may chance to read this article how much, beyond the casting of their votes, they have ever had to do with the government of the nation. Have they ever done more than to vote for those who have man aged to get themselves selected as candidates for office, or those who, for : party reasons, determined exclusively 1 by party leaders—themselves seekers for power of plunder—have been se lected by others? It is all a M Ring,’ and has been for years ; and we, the people, are called upon to indorse and sustain it. To indorse and sustain the various political rings is the whole extent, practically, of the political privileges of the people of the United States.— The fact is abominable and shameful, but it is a fact “ which nobody cau deny.” It humiliates one to make the confession, but it is true that very rarely is any man nominated for a high office who is so much above re proach and so manifestly .the choice of the people that his sworn suppor tens do not feel compelled to sustain him by lies and romances and all sorts of humbuggery. The people are treated like children. Songs are made for them to sing. Their eves are, dazzled with banners and proces sions, and every possible effort is made to induce them to believe that the can didate is precisely what he is not and never was—the candidate of the peo ple. Our candidates are all the can didates of the politicians, and never those of the people. Our choice is a choice between evils and to this we are forced. Second and third rate men, dangerous men, men devoured by the greed for power and place, men without, experience in statesmanship, men who .have made their private pledges of consideration for services promised, men who have selected theinselves, or who have been select ed entirely because they can be used, are placed before ns'.for our suffrages, and we are compelled to a choice be tween thorn. Thus, year after year, doing the best we seem to be able to do, we are used in the interest of men and cliques who have no interest to serye,but.their own. And alhthis in the face of the pat ent truth.that an office-seeker is, by the ve»;y vice of bis nature, character, and position, the man who ought to be avoided and never indorsed or favored. There is .something ; in the greed it self, and more in the immodesty of its declaration in any form, which make him the legitimate object of distrust and popular contempt. Office seeking is not the calling of a gentleman. -No man with self-respect and the modes ty that accompanies real excellence of character and genuine sensibility can possibly jHace liitnself in the position of an and enter upon the intrigues with low minded and merce nary men, which are necessary to the securing of his object. It is a debas ing, belittling, ungentlemanly busi ness. It takes from him any claim to popular respect which a life ot worthy labor may have won, and brands him as a man of vulgar instincts and weak , character. We marvel the corrup , tions of polities, but why should we marvel ? It is the office-seekers who are in office. It is the men who have sold their manhood for power that we have assisted to place there, obeying the commands or yielding to the wishes of our political leaders. It is notori ous. that our best men are not in pol ities, ami.caunqt be induced to enter the field, and that our political rewards and honors are bestowed upon those who are base enough to ask for them. A few of the great .yen of the na tion have during the last thirty years, yieldecLfco Jhat which was meanest in them, and become seekers for the au gust office of the presidency. Now to wish for a high place of power aim usefulness is a worthy ambition, espe cially when it is associated with those gifts and that culture which accord with its dignities and render one fit for its duties ; but to ask for it and intrigue for it, and shape the policy of a life sot it, is the lowest depth to which voluntary degradation can go. These men, every one of them, have come out from the fruitless chase with gar ments draggled, and reputation dam aged, and the lesson of a great life— lived faithfully out upon its own plane —forever spoiled. How much more purely would the names of AYeb&ten and Clay, and Cass shine to day had they never sought for the highest place of power ; and how insane are those great men now living who insist on repeating tlieir mistake ! It would be ungracious to write the names of these, and it is a sad reflection that it is not necessary. They rise as quickly to him who reads as to him who writes. The great, proud names are dragged from their heights and the footballs of the political arena. -The lofty heads are bowed, and the pure vestments are stained. Never again, while timo lasts,.can they stand where they have stood. They have made voluntary exposure of their weakness, and drop ped into fatal depths of popular con tempt. Now, when we remember that we are ruled mainly by men who differ from these only in the faet that they are smaller, and have not fallen so far because they had not so far to fall, we can realize something of the degradation which we have ourselves received in placing them in power. What is our remedy ? We confess that we are well nigh hopeless in the matter. -Bread and butter are vigilant. Politics'to the politician is bread and butter, and we are all so busy in win ning our own<hat we do not take the time to watch and thwart his intri gues. The only remedy thus far re sorted to—and that has always been temporary—-is a great uprising against corruption and wrong. AY e have seen something of it in the popular protest against the thieves of New York Ring. What we need more than anything else, perhaps, is a thoroughly virtu ous and independent press. We be lieve it impossible to work effectualy except through party organizations, but such should be the intelligence, virtue, and vigilance of the press and people that party leaders shall be careful to execute the party will. We need nothing to make our government the best of all governments except to take it out of the hands of self-seeking and office-seeking politicians, aud to place in power those whom the peo {ile regard as their best men. Until this can be done, place will bring per sonal honor to no man and our repub licanism will be as contemptible among the nations as it is unworthy in itself. —T. G. Holland, in Scribner s for September. Names ol the States. Virginia, the oldest of the States, was so-called in honor .of Queen Eliza beth, the “Virgin Queen,” in whose reign Sir AY alter Raleigh made the first attempt to colonize that re gion. Florida—Ponce de Leon landed on the coast of Florida ,on Easter Sunday, and called the country in commemoration of the day, which was Pasqua Florida of the Spaniards or “Feast of Flowers.” Louisiana was called after Louis the Fourteenth, who at one .time owned that section of the coun try. Alabama was so named by the In dians, and signifies “ Here we Rest.” Mississippi is likewise an Indian name meaning “Long river.” So also is Arkansas, from Kansas, the Indian word for “smoky•'•water.” Its prefix was really arc the French word for “bow.” The' Carotin as were originally one tract, and were called “Carolina” af ter Charles the Ninth of France. Georgia owes its name to George the Second of England, who first established a colony tLere in 2732. Tennessee is the Indian for “the River of the Bend.” i. e., Mississippi, wnicli forms its western boundary. Kentucky is the Indian for at the head of the river.” Ohio means “beautiful.” lowa “drowsy ones.” Minnesota “ cloudy water.” Wisconsin “wild rushing channel.” Illinois is derived from the Indian word ellini , men, aud the French suffix ois, together signifiing “tribe of men.” Michigan was called by the name given the lake, fish-weir, which was so styled from its fancied resemblance to a fish trap. Missouri is from Indian word “mud dy.” which more properly applies to the river which flows through it. Oregon owes its Indian name also to its principle river. v Cortez named California. Massachusetts is the Indian name for “the country around the great hills.” Connecticut from the Indian Quonch toa-cut signifying “Long River Maryland after Henrietta Maria, Queen of Charles the First of Eng land. New York was named by ihe Dakc of York. Everybody knows that Pennsylvania means “ Penn’s Woods,” and was so called after William Penn, its origL nal owner. Deleware after Lord De la Ware. New Jersey, so called in honor of Sir George Cateret, who was Gover nor of the Island of Jersey in the British Chanel. Maine was called after the prov ince of Maine in France, in eompli ment of Queen Henrietta of Eng land, who owened that province. Vermont, from the French Vert Jfont, signifiing Green Mountains. New Hampshire from Hampshire county in England. It was formerly called Laconia. The beautiful little State, Rhode Island owes its name to the Island of Rhodes in the Mediteranean, which domain it is said to greatly resern Ue. Texas is the American word for the Mexican name by which all that country was called before it was ced ed to the Unite! States An Appeal to the Negro Voters. ■ JL BETTER FROM FREDERICK DOUGLASS. Washington, Friday, Aug. 0, Colored JFeUoio Citizen* ; —ln view of the insidious and and danger ous advice and counsel of Mr. Sumner I think it is my duty to set forth as urgent reasons why we, as a race and as fellow-citizens, all bound up in the same interest, cannot and should not vote for Greeley and Brown, but that to a man who should cast our whole weight into the scale for Grant and Wilson. First—We in the South have been liberated from slavery by the direct agency of the Republican party. Had Greeley been President instead ot Lin ephi, we would to-day have been in a worse bondage under the Slave Re public of the Southern Confederate States than ever before. Greeley ad vocated this policy and did his best to establish the Republic of which slavery was to be the chief corner s tone. Second—Our first vote was cast as freedmen for Grant, in ISGB. Have we been disappointed in the result of his administration? Previous to that period you had no vote. Now we have equal rights (or almost equal rights) with the white race. We can accumulate property as they do; we have the law’s protection over us as they have; our marital relations res peeted; our wives and children are our own, and not the property of others; we can testify in every court; we have our brethren elected to the Senate and Congress of the country; we are a power.that is felt; we hold the balance of power in America; no itt>rrupt or vascillating man can be elected to the Pro ideutial chair un less we consent to vote for him. Third—all this has occurred since 18G5, and chiefly since we cast our vote for Grant ip 1868. t Arc we pre pareddo risk the abandonment of these great privileges and blessings, and vote for a man who believes that any State may dissolve from the Union when she sees fit, or pass such laws as may seem to her best? Are we prepared to vote for the nominees of the Democratic party, whose hearts never have changed toward us, who kept us in slavery as long as they had the power, and who, if they had the power, again, would (to say the least of it) do tlieir very'utmost to restrict our liberties and oppress us as of old? Mr. Simmer may deceive himself; he cannot deceive us; or, to use the lan gunge of the gentleman, Mr. James Ji. Doolittle. Chairman of tlvc conven tion which nominated Mr. Greeley, one of the objects of the nomination being the “overthrow of negro supre macy.” And forsooth, what is this supremacy they so much wish to over throw? It is simply the cancellation of those ordinary privileges anti bless ings enumerated in clause second.— We have no supremacy, and never expect to have, nor intend to try for. Fourth—ln conclusion, be not de ceived ! With Grant our security is unquestionable; our happiness will be made lasting. With Greeley we would enter upon a sea of trouble—an unknown and anxious future. Un scrupulous advisers would surround him, as they even do now; and even if a few staunch friends should en deaYor to stem the coming troubles, they would be swept away with tfie torrent, and the great work of the Republican party prove an abortion. It cannot be that we shall send one vote out of our entire midst to help bring about such dire results, and I pray God that, when the time comes every man of our race will be found true to the cause of human rights to jttl Fued’k. Douglass. Useful Propeuties of Charcoal. —At this season of the year one de sires to obtain some purifier, and charcoal is of the greatest t for the purpose. AL kinds of utensils can be purified of disagreeble odors by rinsing them out with charcoal du#t, wt t into a soft paste. Putrid water is immediately deprived pf its bad smell by its use. When meat, fish, etc., are liable to become spoil ed from long keeping, charcoal dust will keep them sweet, and if there is a slight taint to meat, it can be taken out by putting three or four pieces of it as large as an egg into the water in which it is boiled. This will effectu ally purify meat which seems too far gone to use. Cabbage Fly.— The Rural Messen ger recommends the following treat ment for the cabbage fly : Take the water in which salt fish have been soaked over night, and with a brush or broom sprinkle plentifully over the plants. This is all. One liberal ap plication, if “fishy enough, will dear out the fly entirely, so that not a cor poral’s guard of them will be left, and the salt will be stimulating to the plants.
