Chickamauga.
BY It. J. GAINES.
This is the soldier’s burial ground,
But lie does not hear your footstep sound,
Tho’ shrill and loud the bugle blows,
It does not wake his deep repose.
This is the field of mortal strife,
That filled their bitter cup of life,
Made orphans poor and widows lone,
And darkened many a bright hearth-stone.
Here they mot the flash of light,
That fell from sabres keen and bright,
And proudly, nobly, led the way.
Amid the battles wild array.
Here brave heroes face to face,
Grappled in deaths cold embrace,
And far above the battle plain,
Went up the loud, loud wail of pain.
The great and small lay side by side—
Freedom was the soldiers pride,
While others fought alone for fame,
That ages might revere their name.
Full many a gallant soldier fell,
Who left no friends behind to tell,
How brave he met the charging foe,
And fell beneath their ruthless blow.
They hear the clash of arms no more,
Yes—their long, long warefare’s o’er,
Nor see their banners streaming high,
When comrades shout the battle cry.
Then tread light this hallowed spot,
Though dead soldiers hear you not,
Here envy, strife and passion cease,
Oh, let their ashes rest in peace.
From the Randolph Enterprise.
Jog Simpson’s Adventure
with the Baby.
BY SANDY HIGGINS.
I do expect Joe Simpson was the
most bashful man that ever made a
fool of himself since Mr. Potiphar’s
wife made love to the first Joseph
that we read about, lie would quit
the road and scramble through a
briar patch to keep from meeting a
calico dress, and if it ever happened
that one of the dear creatures got him
cornered, so that there was no
chance to cut and run, he would
shake like he had the buck ague,
while the sweat would pour from him,
and he would suffer torments painful
to witness. And, it there was any
thing on earth that he dreaded worse
than a woman, it was a baby, lie
said that women were sent into the
world on purpose to torment the life
out ot men, and that babies were ten
times worse than woman. If lie ever
screwed up his courage sufficiently
to attend a party, he would stand at
the door in the cold till his teeth
would dance a scotch jig, rather than
venture in among the girls. His hor
ror of women and babies came near
being the death of him, on one oc
casion, as I feel called on to relate.
It once became necessary for him
to take a trip on the cars, a mode of
conveyance that he abominated, be
cause, as he said, “a feller never
know’d who was goin’ to set down
by him when lie ventured in the tar
nel things.” But this time it was
unavoidable, so he bought his ticket,
and then carefully examined every
box to see if there was any place
where he could be safe from intrusion.
Finally he made choice of a corner
seat, where he thought nobody else
icould sit, and proceeded to make
himself comfortable. Alas ! for hu
man calculations! The ears kept
filling up, till at last there was no
vacancy except half the seat he oc
cupied, and still the train stood still.
Joe was in agony of terror, and men
tally cursed the entire railroad com
pany.
“Why in the name of Job don’t
they go on he muttered “The
next thing anybody knows some wo
man with her arms full of babies will
tumble in here an’ want half my scat,
but I’ll not give it up, if I die for it.
Confound that conductor! I do
believe he’s doin’ it a purpose to git
me into a scrape. Es I had him by
the neck I’d make him trot this old
stage off in a hurry.”
Here his reflections were cut short
by the opening of the door, and to
his utter consternation, there was a
woman with a fat baby in her arms !
To make matters worse, the train just
then started off in a hurry, and, with
out any ceremony the new comer
plumped herself down by Joe’s side,
and commenced playing with the baby.
Here was a dilemma, from which
there was no possible mode of escape !
She was a bright eyed, red-cheeked
woman, with a saucy mouth, 'looking
as if nothing would please her better
than a lark, and Joe possibly quaked
in his boots when she turned her
eyes fully on him. In his desperas
tions he frantically grasped the sash
and raised it to its fullest extent, lot
ting in a rush of cold air, that would
have struck a chill to anybody else.
“What are you doing that for?’
asked the lady opening her black
eyes in wonder.
* “It’s so confounded hot in here!”
stammered Joe.
“Hot, indeed?” replied she, with a
merry laugh, you must have a fever.
CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 20, 1873.
“I lain t very well,’ gaped poor
Joe, while the sweat poured from
him in great drops, and he seemed
about to pitch himself out of the wins
dow.
With quickness of her sex, she
saw what was the matter with him,
and woman like, determined to make
a finish of him.
“I won’t bite you,” she said, ma
liciously moving a little nearer.
“I don’t know,” replied he, “but
—I wish I was at home.
“Did your ma know you was-com
ing ?” was the next query.
“No” answered he, “and I guess
she’ll be precious uneasy about me.”
“Well, never mind,” said she sooths
ingly, “I won’t never tell anybody,
and well have such a nice time.”
“The d—l we will,” thought Joe,
“I wish you or me was in the Asy
lum. Confound her! I’ll bet she’s
a widow, an’ the first thing I know
she’ll marry me, right here in the
crowd,” and Joe shivered all over
with fright at the picture conjured up
by his heated imagination. lie look
ed out at the window, to see it there
was any chance of escape, but the
train was moving too fast for a leap,
and he couldn’t get out at the door
without she would move, which she
appeared to have no intention of do
ing. Meanwhile, she rattled away, as
only a woman can do, putting all
manner of questions to Joe, while
the baby crowed and danced, and
secerned desirous of cultivating a
closer acquaintance.
While matters were in this highly
interesting condition, the train halted
at a depot, when the lady suddenly
sprang up, exclaiming, “Oh, there’s
cousin John ! Please hold baby till
I speak t J him,” and betore lie could
say “quit” she plumped the little fel
low down in his lap and darted out.
“Good Lord !if I ain’t gone and
done it, now !” he groaned. “I’ll bet
she’s run away an I’ll be hung for
stealing this confounded baby ! Hello!
stop the machine !” he yelled, a3 the
train moved on again, but lie was on
ly answered by a general laugh, as
the crowd comprehended the situa
tion, and enjoyed the joke. Jcc was
in a fix, now, and no mistake. He’d
never had a baby in his lap before,
and knew no more about managing it
than he did about calculating the
next eclipse. In his agony he grunt
ed, and groaned, and swore, and al
most cried, and when the young one
grabbled his shirt bosom with one
hand and his whiskers with the other,
he seemed to have serious notions of
pitching it out of the window. But
still no mother appeared, and it seem
ed that he was destined to become the
head of a family, whether or no.
“ Ticket, sir,” exclaimed the con
ductor, holding out his hand for Joe’s
passport.
“ Here, take it,’, replied Joe, hold
ing out the baby at arm’s length, as it
it was a huge spider.
“ You can’t travel on that ticket,”
said the conductor, who didn’t appear
to understand what was up.
“ For God’s sake, take it away from
here,” urged Joe. “ The woman’s
Am away, and I ain’t well and she
won’t come back, an’ I’ll be put iu
jail lor stealing it, and done it a pur
pose, and I do b’lieve I’m goin’ clean
out of my head ! ” and Joe waxed elo
quent at the accumulation of miseries
that beset him,
“ I expect you know more about the
baby than you pretend,” said the con
ductor.
“ I don't know nothin’ about the
tiling, nor the woman nor nothin’
else,” pleaded Joe, “ an’ if somethin’
ain’t done for me pretty quick I won’t
know my name. Do take it ! ”
“ I think something has already
been done for you,” replied the con
ductor, but you must settle your own
family affaire.
“ I tell you I didn’t do it! ” replied
Joe, “ but es somebody don’t take it
I’ll pitch it out of the window, es I
hang for it.”
There’s no knowing what he might
have done in his desperation, if a lady
had not relieved him of his burden,
and enabled him to recover his senses.
At the next station the mother, who
had been in another box all the time,
came in and was profuse in her apolo
gies, but it did no good. Joe vowed
it was done on purpose, and swore
he’d walk to Patagonia before he’d
ride in another car, unless he had a
box to himself, and the doors locked.
“Ah ! ” said old Mrs. Doosenberry
“ laming is a great thing ; I’ve often
felt the need of it. Will you believe
it? I’m now sixty years old, and
I only know the name ot three
months in the year: and them’s spring,
summer and autumn. I larnt them
when I was a little bit of a gal! ”

Sewing on Buttons.
It is bad enough to see a bachlfer
sew on a button, but he is the embod
iment of grace along-side of a mar
ried man. Necessity has compelled
experience in the case of the former,
but the latter has always depended
upon someone else for this service,
and, fortunately for the sake of society,
it is rarely he has to resort to the nee
dle himself. Sometimes the patient
wife scalds her right hand, or runs a
splinter under the nail of the index fing
er of that hand, and it is then that
the man clutches the needle around
the neck, and, forgetting to tie a knot
in the thread, commences to put on
j the button. It is always in the moru
| ing, and from five to twenty minutes
j after he is expected to be down street.
He lays the button exactly on the
site of its predecessor, and pushes the
needle through one eye, and draws
the thread, after leaving about three
inches of it sticking up for Ice way.—
He says to himself, “Well, if women
don’t have the easiest time I ever
seen.” Then lie comes back the other
way, and gets the needle through the
cloth well enough, and lays himself
out to find the eye, but in spite of a
good deal of jabbing, the needlepoint
persists in bucking against the solid
parts that button, and, finally, when
he loses patience, his fingers catch
the thread and that three inches he
had left to hold the button slips
through the eye in a twinkling, and
the button rolls across the floor. He
picks it up without a single remark,
out of respect for the children, and
makes another attempt to fasten it.—
This time, when coming back with
the needle, he keeps both the thread
and the button from slipping by cover
ing them with his thumb, and it is out
of regard for that part of him that he
feels around for the eye in a very car
ful and judicious manner, but event *
i tually losing his philosophy, as the
j search becomes more and more hope
less, he falls to jabbing about in a
loose and savage manner, and it is
just then the needle finds the open
ing, and comes up through the but
ton and part way through his thumb
with a celerity that no human ingenui
ty can guard against. Then he lays
down the things, with a few familiar
quotations, and presses the injured
hand between his knees, and then
holds it under his arm, and finally
jams it into his mouth, and calls upon
heaven and earth to witness that there
has never been anything like it since
the world was created, and howls and
whistles and moans and sobs. After a
while he calms down, puts on his
pants, and fastens them together with
a stick and goes to his business a
changed man. —Danbury Kcics„

Decidedly Delicate Question. —
A correspondent lately wrote to San
Francisco Chronicle to know where
Cain obtained his wife, and is thus
severely but properly reproved: “Up
on any subject of a public nature we
never refuse to throw the desired light.
But this is altogether a different thing.
It is a family matter with which we
do not care to meddle. Cain died
some time before many of us were
born, and such idle curiosity regards
ing the family affairs of a deceased
person we regard as reprehensible,
and calculated to violate the sanctities
ot domestic life.”

dollars, a contribution of an officer of
the Second United States cavalry, sta

erection of the proposed monument
over remains of Gen. Robt, E. Lee.
The letter says: “Capt. E. was with

war, and knew and appreciated his
worth long before his name became

How Should Jurymen be Paid ?
Judge Strozier, of the Albany Cir
cuit, answered this question as fol
lows at the last session of Decatur Su
perior Court:
“The taxes of the State are raised
for revenue, and the idea of taxing
the people for jury purposes, etc., is
an innovation upon former usage and
is an expense to the county by taxa
tiou which I do not think legitimate,
and as a substitute upon the urinci.-
ple of right and justice the parties
who use juries should be compelled
to pay them and not be charged to the
public, who have no interest in the
civil matters of issue between the
parties. Parties who use the county
officers, such as clerks and sheriffs,
and who require extra service of those
officers other than their regular duties,
and for which no compensation is al
lowed, should be taxed with the cost
of such extra services, and not the
taxed who have no interest in the
matter. This is justice.”
JAn editor says his ancestors
have been in the habit of living a
hundred years. His opponent re
sponds by saving “that was before
the introduction of capital punish
rnent.”
The Convention of School
Comissioners.
The attention of School Commis
ioners throughout the State of Geor
gia, is called to the communication of
Prof. Gustavus J. Orr, State School
Commissioner, viz :
Department of Education, )
Atlanta, Ga., June 10, 1873.)
After consultation with 11 is Excel
lency the Governor, I hereby call a
Convention of the County School
Commissioners of this State, to be
held in this city on the 25th and 2Gth
days of this month.
The objects of the Convention are
to awaken interest in the public
schools, to promote uniformity in
the practical workings of tho sys
tem, to -.ecure a better understanding
of its Jetails, and to gain fuller infor
mation as to the status of school ass
fairs throughout the entire State.
Through the kindness of the citi- j
zens of Atlanta, arrangements have
already been made for entertaining one
hundred of the members free of charge,
and I feel safe in saying, from efforts
which I am now making, that I shall
succeed in providing for the remaining
forty in the same way.
The following railroads have shown
their public spirit by granting a free
return to all members who pay full
fare in coming, viz : The Western &
Atlantic, the Atlanta tfc Richmond Air
Line, the Central and its connections,
including, the Macou & Western and
the Southwestern and its branches,
the Georgia, the Pome, the Cherokee
the Atlantic & Gulf, the Macon &
Brunswick and the Atlanta & West
Point.
In order to relieve the members, as
nearly as possible from all expense, I
hereby instruct the several county
boards of education to consider the
three or four days spent in the con
vention, and in coming and returning,
as days devoted to official duty, allow
ing the Commissioners tho usual per
diem ; inasmuch as I feel assured that
this time, wisely spent, will result in
more solid good than the same number
of days occupied with any of the reg
ular labors.
The chief executive officers of syss
terns in cities and counties, established
under special laws, are also invited to
attend.
Members, on coining into the city,
will be met at the trains and shown
to their homes by myself and assis
tants. That they may be identified, I
request them to wear each a red rib
bon tied in the lapel of his coat. My
self and assistants will wear blue rib
bons, tied in the same manner.
Let all come that we may consult
about the great interests which we
represent.
All the papers of the State are re
quested to copy this, as they will
thereby render important public ser
vice. Gustavus J. Orr,
Stale School Commissioner.

Hard Boiled Eggs.
A story is told of a negro in Vir
ginia whose master threatened to give
him a flogging it he boiled his eggs
hard again Next morning the eggs
came to the table still harder than be
fore.
“ You rascal,” shouted the enraged
planter, “ didn't I tell you to cook
these eggs soft? ”
“ Yes, massa,” said the frightened
slave ; “ an’ I got up at 2 o’clock dis
mornin,” and biled dem five hours ;
an’ it seems to me I never kin get
dese eggs softer.”
During the war one of the North
ern hotel keepers was on a visit to
Norfolk. The eggs came to the ta
ble boiled hard.
“ Look here,” said the hotel keep
er ; “ Sambo these eggs are boiled too
hard. Now, take my watch and boil
them three minutes by it.”
He gave the negro his splendid
gold watch. In about five minutes
the freed man returned with the eggs j
and watch on the same plate. The ;
watch was wet.
“ What have you been doing to my
watch ? ” asked the Northern visitor.
“ Why, its ail wet ! ”
“ Yes, sah,” said the negro. “ I
biled de watch wid de eggs. All
right dis time, sah.”
