He fed the “beats” ard “sponges,” too, AYith most B”y?rb free lunches; Though be never fought, he oft indulge 1 In smashes and in punches. But trade began to slacken up, And when ’twas very dull His bottles oft were empty, while As often he was full. Poor Jim was ailing, too, 'twas said, (His ale was giving out), And that was strange, indeed, for he W as always getting stout But while as stouter Jimmy grew, His business went to rust; Until his lovnig friends declared That he was sure to bust.

It is devoted entire ly to school exhibitions, recitations, dr alogues, tableaux, charades, etc., and is destined to have a great popularity.— It is the only magazine of the kind we know of; it has been greatly needed, and meets the want.

But here is the sample exercise from The Festival : CHOICE OF TRADES. A RECITATION FOR LITTLE BOYS. BY MRS. M. B. C. SLADE. This recitation should be accompa nied with appropriate action. Thus, the farmer should make the motions for sowing, reaping, plowing, binding, and pitching away; the carpenter for planing, hammering and sawing; the mason for brick laying and smoothing; the smith for blows on the anvil, and the shoemaker for sewing shoes, etc. First Boy—When I’m a man, a man, I’ll be a farmer if I can — and lean !

I come, I come from a warm, sunny clime, Where tho breezes are soft in their Ri s hin s; , , I come to join with the summer wind s chime, And keep the fair flowers from dying. I ride on the gale of the rose’s perfume, And feast my bright gaze in its flush es; My smile is the gift of the fail*, silver morn, At which the livid bud even blushes. The beam that is flashed from the sun is my steed, My palace the thick, leafy bower; I dart through the air with the light ning’s speed, To revive every drooping flower. My bcqnets are saved by the liily and rose, My couch is tlie violet’s bed, And then when the shadows of twi light repose, I pillow my too, restless head. j. c. c. B. Euharloe, Ga. Fashionable Advertisement. At the special request of a lady of this city we publish the following, which we believe originally appeared in the Nick Nax: A husband is wanted, both gallant and gay, Who’ll pay all my debus in a lover-like way; : Who’ll never got tight, nor come home with the blues; | Who’ll always let madam do just as she choose. This ma n must be handsome and wealthy of coarse, ' And never object to his wife beiDg boss. I’ll have my own way and shall flat with the beaux; I’d never submit to be led by the nose. My silks and xny velvets must be of the best, With cambric and laces as fine as the rest; My diamonds, ma says, must be very fine, No belle must wear diamonds finer than mine. Cur mansion in town must be stylish, you know, With servants to match, for I dearly love show; Though business fails and you look for a crash, For these you must freely supply me with cash. The cares of maternity would’t suit me; No children are wanted, I wish to be free. I hereby give notice, so when I am wed No more on this subject is left to be said, My time will be filled with parties and balls, With Long Branch, White Mountains, Niagara Falls. “Sweet Home” and its comforts, and love—are all trash! Girls don’t seek for these when they marry for cash. Should poverty come, then for changes prepare; For I’d never stoop man’s misfortunes to share, You’d not “make a scene” nor get an gry, I hope, If I with some lover should chance to elope. Now who wants a first-class, desirable wife, With ‘modern improvements’ th<? finest in life? Will nobody answer? Get married I shan’t! I would if I co .Id, and—but really I can’t, From tho New York Times. A SXILANGE STORY. FIRE SEEN’ NEAR SOLOMON’S TEMPLE —WARN- ING OF UKE COMING O/ TEE MESSIAH. Our friends or the Hebrew faith will doubtless feel much interested iu knowing of certain strange develop ments which, according to the Austri an newspapers, have manifested them selves in Jerusalem. -*—i- r meuts refer to the coming of the Jew ish Messiah. The story, as told, is singular enough. It appears that the rabbi of Parka, a town in Hungary, has received letters from Jerusalem which state that toward the end of last month a column of lire was seen near the ruins of Solomon’s Temple, and that a strong voice was heard, which addressed itself to an Israelite who was worshipping there at the time. This voice warned the devotee of the corning, this year, of the Messiah, and declared the Israelites should re pent, and be more observant of the religion of their fathers. The man so addressed spoke prophetically of what he had heard. Thereupon the people treated him as an imposter, and some even went so far as to attempt to take his life; but he, as if, miracu lously endowed with more than hu man strength, fought hundred of his assailants, and when, afterward, a bat talion of soldiers was sent to arrest him, baffled them in their efforts to capture him. Two I raelites, the Hungarian journal say, have been dis patched to Jerusalem to learn the ex act facts of this extraordinary affair.— It is dear that not one of the race of prophets, the man who, as above nar rated, opposed this host of enemies, must beau athlete of no small pre tensions. School Teacher Flogged by Two Colored Female PcriLs. —The Rich mond Dispatch publishes the following facts of an actual occurrence near Mid lothian,, Ya., which arc vouched for by a most reliable citizen of that neighbor hood : The principal actors in this little drama are Mr. Taylor, from the lumber regions of Maine, a teacher of a freed man’s school, and two of his pupils, Misses Chailotte and Jennie York, liue lv formed and handsome young ladies of color, aged respectively twenty-one and nineteen years. Many other pu pils were participators in the scene. A tew mornings since, the schoolmaster ordered Miss Charlotte to produce a scuttle full of that bituminous mineral vulgarly denominated coal, for the pur pose of giving a caloric tendency to the atmosphere of the school-room. This order the youg lady refused to ol>ey; whereupon he obtained a bundle of switches for the purpose of administer ing a castigation, and laid them with considerable harshness across her beau tifully turned shoulders. In a moment the blood of the Yorks was at fever heat, and the signal of battle was given. Jennie seized him in her arms, and Charlotte, with her digital extremities, warmly went to work, and somewhat destroyed the proportions of his facial symmetry. She took her own time up on him, and having actually exhausted herself, let go of him, after having ad ministered the handsomest and most thoroughly admini tered and deserved beating a Down-East sharper ever re ceived. In vain he called for help.— The freedmen only answered “Good! Give it to lmn.” A little mulatto says that he called “Time” for a second !re oil, but Taylor could not come to | the “scratch.” He was so damage. { t hat Aunt Polly wasted a b tth of can• ; phor over his wounded f.gur -li. ml. j He afterwards talked very sweetly t. Charlotte, advising her to be a po m girl, and adding. “Now let’s be friend, and we will all be silent i bout this lit ile matter; for if yon were to toil it, i might prove injurious to oour chatac ters.

The loss of freight and trav el between Nashville and Alabama is insured, and we have competition for the Southwestern Georgia trade by three Alabama lines. The business of Eastern Georgia and South Carolina will be diverted by the Blue Ridge Railroad. From Knoxville to Charleston, by State Road, is 518 miles; by Blue Ridge Railroad 400 miles, showing 118 miles difference a gaiust the State Road. From Knox ville to Augusta by, State Road, is 381 miles; by Blue Ridge Railroad, 205 miles, showing 80 miles difference. Knoxville will also be forty-live miles nearer Augusta and Union Point, by Clayton and Athens, than by the State Road, when the Air-Lino and Georgia Extension Roads be built. What is to be done to remedy this loss ? Col. Ilulbert says he has cheap ened freight on coal and iron to stim ulate coal mining and iron foundries. This is one necessity. Then side lines must be built to feed the State Road. Northeastern Georgia without railroads, has fallen o‘ iu a population from 1850 to 1860, from 108,800 to 105,247. Northwest Georgia increas ed from 98,200 to 132,519. While the respective increase of value in proper ty was 334 per cent, and 540 per cent. The increased value of property will pav the State for building the roads. Col. Ilulbert thinks that. Georgia should encourage the great Southern road from Cincinnati to Chattanooga; buy the Rome Railroad, and run it to the Alabama line, which will shorten the distance from Atlanta to Memphis 74 miles; build the road from Carters ville to Van Wort; build a road from Cartersville up the Etowah to Dahlon ega; and build the read from Daltoa to Morgan ton. Col. Ilulbert thinks a State Geolo gist should be appointed to find the exact locality of all our mineral into/- csts. Brownlqw and Butler.—The follow ing stanza was found in a bolt of goo is received from New York by a mer chant iu Montgomery, a few days ag >: “The time may come when all is well. When peace in beauty reigns; When Browniow seeks a bom*' in hell, And Butler writhes in chains.” Cattle-stealing is not so common a long the Rio Grande as it has been.— > company of cattle owners under the command of Mr, King, of King’s ranch, hung eleven thieves to one tree. LouisvrLLE. Heirs to three hundied acres of the l>u-.ineas centre of Louis ville, Kentucky, have suddenly sprung into existence. They are about insti tuting suit again t the city to 1 - cover the property, which is now valued at thirty million dullars. There is much excitement in conseqvence. A profes* ona beggar some ten ye >rs of ftrre, ig orant of the art of reading, bought a card to be placed on his breast, and appear and in the public s roots as a ‘poor widow and eight .mat: children.' An Unfortuhatk Town.—Sometime go the minister in charge of a church it liiugtovvu, Pa., having fallen into ho habit of spending his leisure time .a stealing horses, was dismissed by his congregation whe thoughr suck conduct unbecoming » preaches.

Brown lind been in love with a young Indy, and asked pennisreim to cull her by the expressive name of some ani mal, which wss granted on condition that she should have tiie same privi lege. On leaving, Brown said, ‘Cood night, deer,’ ‘Good nigut, bore,’ said she. Brown has since given up the company of young ladies. A little six-year-old was walking with his father, and passing a church, the child asked: ‘What house is that - ‘That is the Dutch Clmrch,’ was the reply; ‘people go there to be good, so that they may become angels.’ ‘Will there be Dutch angels, pa ?’ That child should be sent to Sunday school. An old lady, on being examined as to her plume of legal settlement, was asked what reason she had for suppos ing her husoaud had a legal settlement in that town. The old lady said: ‘He was born and married there, and they buried him there; and if that isn’t set tling him there, I don’t know what is.'
