A\ ann-hemted, brave and impulsive, they are often betrayed into difficul ties by their very good qualities, by their love of something strong, and still more frequently by their igno rance of many of our customs. In one of our towns of *Alabama there oflceresided_ a “ publican and sinner ” bv the name of Bud ford, who not only “ knew how to keep a hotel” but’who did keep one, for the enter tainment of man and beast. Late one Sunday evening two rather seedy looking sons of the Emerald Isle made their apperance at his door, when one of them remarked : “ Landlord, can yer take in a pair of way-farin’ men, who spent all their money I” “ Certainly,” replied mine host, but as I'have a preacher staying with me to-night, I must beg of you to keep good order.” “ Av coorse we’ll behave decent,” replied Pat, and accordingly they were ushered into the sitting-room, where they found the preacher, who endevored to entice them into con versation, but the result proved a failure, for they were evidently not to be betrayed out of their good be havior. In due time supper was announced and our two worthies started for the diningroom, Pat ahead, while Barney brought up the rear. The floor of the eating-room was a step lower than that of the adjoining room, a fact of which Pat took due notice, but Barney’s attention was so taken tip with the table that he marched straight on, stepping like a blind horse in a potato patch, evidently in-, tent on getting to the eatables as soon as possible. When he got to the step he walked off, pitching his head against Pat’s back, knocking him under the table and piling him self along side. “ What in the duvil’s name do ye mane by coming in a gentleman’s house in that style ?” asked Pat, making a vigorous effort to get to his O CD O feet. “ Whisht, Pat!” replied Barney, “ don’t disturb the company with your bad breeding.” “By St. Patrick !” said Pat, “if it warn’t for disturbin' the company, I,d bate the breth out o’ yer carcass, ye liog-trothing spalpen.” “ Jist wait, Paddy my boy, till we get out o’ this, and I’ll tache ye a few manners,” replied Barney scrambling to his feet, and taking a scat at the table, where he was soon joined by Pat, and the meal proceeded without any other mishaps, When they had eaten their fill, they walked out into the yard where a well bad been be gun. It was about five feet deep, and as it was uncovered, and the night dark, Barney tumbled, neck and heels into the hole, “ Och, murther !” he yelled, I’m done kilt entirely.” “ Shall I go tor a praste ?” inquir ed Pat, kneeling down at the edge of the hole. ‘ Go for a rope an’ cart, an’ a doc> tor, to help me out of this, Pat yell ed Barney. Quick there’s snakes in tins hole, and Barney commenced clawing at the sides of the well with frantic haste. By Pat’s help lie was extricated, burning with ire, and rushing in the house, he burst forth : “ Landlord, you ought to be pros ecuted, sir. What for, Barney ? inquired Bud ford. “ For havin’ so many holes about yer house,” replied he. “ There’s a liole in yer kitchen, an’ a hole in yer yeard, an’ every where Igo there’s a darned hole to fall into !” -Ah, my friend,” said the preacher “ the Bible commands us to take heed to our steps.’’ “ Take heed to the divil!” roared Barney. Don’t it say if a man digs a pit he shall fall into it, an, aint I fell into it myself, an’ nearly broke my neck in the job 1 Don’t swear my friend, urged the preacher, while Budford was enjoying the scene. But I will swear ? replied barney Inadder than ever. Show me a bed landlord, an’ see if I’ll finfeh kilim myself intirelv. They were shown their room bv a grinning darkey, but their troubles were not ended. The bed room was lighted with gas, and they eyed the unusual light with wondering *eyes. Say, snow ball,” said Pat, to the negro, “ how in the wurruld do ye l*ut this light out ? Jes’ turn ’offsie gas, replied Sambo, as he took his woolly head out of the 'door. “ Turn off tfte gas, is it ?” said Pat a.s he sat on the side bed and staired with a puzzled expression at the burn Gr ' “ Barney, dear, where does the light come from !” rti *?? 1 " 1 See blows out ov -hat hole readied i> . . ‘qmed barney, with a Knowing look, as he proceeded to off his clothes. “ Well, Barney, jist put it out and come to bed,” continued Pat, as he threw off his clothes and tumbled in to bed. Thus instructed Barney made two or three vigorous blows, without effect. Then he endevored to pinch it out. “ Mother of Moses ?” yelled lie “there’s niver a wick in it, at all, an’ I’ve scorched my fingers, as though they were the light in question.” “ Why don’t you turn oft* the gas, as the nagur told ye, ye spalpeen ?” queried Pat. “Good for yez,” replied Barney, and taking.hold the pipe he gave it a vigorous wrench, breaking it loose, and admitting a perfect whirl wind of gas and fire. The yells of fire soon brought Burford to their assistance who finally set matters light, and left them to their repose. About day break they awoke, and being very thirsty, hurried on their clothes and started down stairs, but they had hardly begun the descent when Pat, who was behind, stumbled, and down they both rolled together, coming to the bottom considerably mixed. A regular game of fisticuffs was the re sult, which was only ended by the ar rival of the landlord, who restored their good humor by giving them a generous drink of the ‘cratur.’ Noth ing, however, could induce them to remain to breakfast, anil they depart ed, vowing that Burlord’s tavern was a regular trap. OFFICE OF Tiie Confederate Monumental "I Association of Georgia, v- Augusta, Ga., Jan. 4th, 1873. ) We are aware that a second post ponement of the distribution of the shares of the Confederate Monumental Association of Georgia will dissatisfy some of the ticket holders. Provi dence has inflicted, upon almost every section of our country, for the last month, the severest weather that lias been known for many years. The highways of travel in many sections have been stopped. Communication between neighbortioods lias been in terrupted People have been compell ed to keep close at their homes. One Agent writes: “The postponement was so l short that owing to the bad weather it will be iuipossable for me to aid you as I expected. A State Agent in forms us that the contribution from his State will be cut down to a small amount by the inclement weather, and the shortness of time. One Agent stated to us in person that there were many who wished to subscribe that he had not been able to see in con sequence of the extreme bitterness of the weather. Another Agent declined to act longer, as the time was too short to obtain the desired results in his State. We might quote from oth er letters to show that complaint lias been made; that we sought to expedite the drawing by inadequate time. We frankly confess that we desired to close the effort we have been making. The object sought is a gratetul one. We have been influenced to hold on by our desire to honor the memory of personal relatives and friends, as wel] as their lost and devoted comrades. W e use the occasion to add that we have in no small degree been influenc ed to continue our efforts to protect the credit of our State and section. We looked to a quenchless vestal fire, wihout which there can be no soul, no true greatness, no noble sentiment in communities or nations. We are Agents to guard this great and most sacred enterprise. We ask the ticket holders to give ns their con fidence. W e ask them to rely upon our judgments for another brief period We know better than they do the ne cessity for a little more jtime. If any one shall say this additional postpone ment violates our pledges, all that we have to say is, the South is not yet so represented to appear creditably be fore the country and the world. When we honestly tell you that, will you not rather thank than condemn us for the delay. In addition to the difficulties already referred to, we may properly add that for weeks past the excitement of canvasses for county offices, some of which are lucrative, have directed attention from this effort to do a grate ful and patriotic work. These elec tions are over. These excitements are rapidly passing away. Our peo pie can now have time tor reflection. They will now move freely; eome to the tombs of their martyrs, streothed on their shields in wakeless sleep, and make their offerings for perpetual re membrance. W e trust no one will be dissatisfied 4 but that all will unite with us in saying that the sepulchral honors of the dead should not be marred by impatience or selfish considerations. Whether we look to the battlesfield, or the new made grave, our heroes are wreathed with the honors of dying patriots. Y\ e now publicly pledge and solemnly aver that the distribution shall take place on the THIRD DAY OF APRIL, i873. D. V. On that day the curtain will fall upon this most holy enterprise, and we trust our people will enable us to present an expose that will be more satisfactory than we -could make on the Bth inst.

The Savannah Daily News. The Savanah Dailf Morning News is oc knowledged by the press atid people tm be The best daily paper south of Louisville and east of New Orleans. Carrying with K tlrc pres tige and reliability of age, it has all the vig or and vitality of youth, and its enterprise as a gatherer of the latest and freshest news has astonished its contemporaries and met the warm approbation of the public. .During the year 1873, no expence of lime, labor, and money will lie spent to keep the Morning News ahead of ull com pet itors in Georgia journalism, and to deserve the flattering encomiums heaped upon it from all quarters. There has, as yet, been been no serious attempt made to rival tbe special telegrams which the Aewsinaugura ted some years ago, and the consequen ce is, that the reader in in search of the latest intelligence always looks to the Morning News. The tekgtaph c arrange ments of the paper are such that the omis sions made bv thegei eral press reports are promptly and reliably supplied by its spe cial correspondents. Tbe Morning News hnslately been enlarg ed to a thirty-six column paper, and this broad scope of type embraces, daily, every thing of interest that transpires inthe domain of Literature, Art, Science, Politics, Relig ion, and General Inteligence; giving to the reader more and better digested matter than any other pajier in the State. It is, perhaps, needless to speak of the poli tics of the Morning News. For years and years indeed, since its establishment —it has been a representative Southern paper, and from that time to the present, in all conjunc tures, it has consistently and persistently mantained Democratic States Rights prin ciples, and labored, with an ardor and de votion that know no abatement, to promote and preserve the interests and honor of the South. The special features of the Morning News will be retained and improved upon during the ensuing year, and several new at tractions well be added. The Georgia news items, with their quaint and pleasant humor, and the epitome of Florida affairs, will be continued during the year. The local department will be, as it has been for the past year, the most complete and reliable to be found in any Savannah paper, aud the commercial columns will be full and accurate. The price of the Daily is slo.ooper annum, So .CO for one month. TIIE TRI-WEEKLY NEWS. This edition of the Morning News isespecial ly rfcorncnded to those who have not tbe fhciiities-of a daily mall.
