‘ Come Into the Garden, Maud.” “Come into tho gardon, Maud, With a brickbat and a atone; Here’s the biggest cat you ever ‘saw and A gnawin’ a chicken bone ! Kun like the mischicl, Maud, I am here with the beast alone. “Queen cook of the kitchen garden of cooks: Come hither with poker and broom; With scolding tongue and frowning looks, And strong arms that sweep the room; Come out, old girl, from the cookery hooks And pronounce the croature’s doom !” There has fallen a heavy shoe From the window into the yard; Maud has a soft blue eye, But she iiings at a cat awful hard, And she throws so straight and true That his visage is generally marred. The horse-radish neighs. “She is near!” But the onion weeps, “She is late!” And the cat is seized with foreboding fear, And rushes toward the gate; But the gallant Maud gets round in his rear And mashes him small as lish-hait! _____ Capitol.

When she cuts him and he loves I.” Old maids are described as embers from which the sparks have fled. A man’s politics are sometimes made known by tho paper worn in his daugh ter’s panier. An Irish editor says he can see no earthly reason why women shonld not be allowed to become medical men. Clergymen invariably address their flocks as brethem, taking it for grunted that the brethern embrace the sisters. The young folks of Kaleigli eat phil openas, the girls holding the almonds be tween their teeth and the young men bit ing them off. “Wouldn’t you like to be a woman when you grow up?” “No,” answered young four years old. “Why?” “Be cause women can’t turn summer-sets.” The following congratulatory telegram was received from Cincinnati by a wed ding party: “Congratulations on your nuptials. May your future troubles be only little ones. ” An irreverent young woman, on being (juestioned as to her opinion of a fresh male acquaintance, said he would bo very presentable, if the Lord hadn’t turned up so much of his legs to make feet of. The buzz-saw has slain its thousands, and the mower and reaper its ten thou sands. The season for being killed by base ball opens a little late this year, but a satisfactory report has been received from Racine. Age, twelve: Hot liner in the stomach.

It is a trifle early in the season, but lie spreads his overcort for a seat, and sho lends him half of her shawl, which with a pound of peppermint drops, serves to keep them warm, and “wakes to ecstasy the living liar.” Three little boys were disputing as to whose father said the shortest grace.—My father says: “Lord we thank you for those provisions.” Second—“And mine says: “Father bless this food to us.” Third—“Ah, but mine’s the best of all. Ho shoves his plate towards mamma and says : “Darn ye, liill up.” At a school concert the parson, who prided himself on the quickness and cleverness of his little ones, said, “Boys, when I heard your beautiful song to night, I had hard work to keep my feet still. Now what do yon think was the matter with them ?” Tho answer came with great prowtness, “Chillblaius !” Corpulent old lady: —“l should like a ticket for tho train.” Booking clerk (who thinks ho will make a joke)— “Yes’m; will you go in tho passenger train or the cattle train ?” Lady—“ Well, if you are a specimen of what I shall ex perience in the passenger train, give me a ticket for the cattle train by all means. ” “Is Miss Blinking at home?”asked Mr. Sanders of tho Irish girl who attended the ring at the door. “Yes, I b’lavo sho is, sir.” “Is sho engaged ?” “An’ is it en gaged you say ?

She did not recover for twenty minutes or more, and the gentleman took a vast oath on the morrow that he would “give twenty five dollars a shock for earthquakes.” A boy in Lockport, Illinois, who had just come into possession of a shot-gun, amused himself by banging away at his father, who was greasing harness on the wood-pile. The old gentleman let him j practice a few minutes, and then fanned | the youngster with one of the tugs until lie concluded to go out of tho Schutzen fost business. Some parents never can let a boy have any fun. “Madam,” said a boarder to bis land lady, “I’am very suro this pepper is half peas.” “Teas!” cried the lady bridling up. “Peas, iudeed!

Suddenly Dickey dropped tho compass in amazement. “It can't be! It ain’t in tho border of nature that it should bo! Impossible! Ridiculous ?” “Why, Dickey, what's the matter?

A beautiful young lady who had allowed the tendrils of her heart to twine fondly around a strapping conductor on a horse car, had her affectionate nature crushed by the discovery that he was taking fare from her and “dead-heading” another girl who lived on the same street. She did not eat pickles and pine away, but wrote him an affectionate epistle which “all who run may read:" “You want tonok down enuff stamps to get me a paisler shawl A a dolly varden before Sunday or I will put an awning over that gill’s eye the next time I meet her in society. You hear me.” In all the world there is nothing so de lightful as a tale of a faithful and con stant love. Such a tale of masculine de votion we have to tell. At the beginning of the war a young and lovely maiden promised her lily hand in marriage to a brave and beautiful youth in the army. Mill-ponds were nothing to tho smooth ness with which their course of love ran, until at tho end of the war the youth de termined to seek his fortune in California. He departed burning with impatience to return and claim forevermore his charrn ing. his angelic bride. Years passed on as they are wont to pass ; the gentle lady looked m the glass saw her chestnut locks from day to day began to show decided signs of gray. A whisper of “old maid ’ rent her all too faithful heart vet still she waited, sure that the brave, the beau tiful would return to comfort and bless. He came—at last he came! With a bronzed cheek he come, with high hopes, with a prodigious fortune—and a wife and twins. Alas! She Was Sure or It ?—A wag was riding in an old fashioned stago coach on a summer's day with a female friend of his, who had arrived at the age when the milk and sugar of woman's composition naturally turn a little acid. This virtuous female upon passing a pond, was shocked beyond expression by observing five or six small urchins as naked as they were bom, sporting in the water. “Oh. my ! how disgraceful; what a shocking vull garity!" Her companion said nothing in reply at the time, but after the lapse of a few moments, as if the subject had just occurred to his mind, he suddenly re marked : “That was disgraceful conduct in those young ladies back there, in sight of every one stark naked.” “Young ladies,” squalls out aunt vinegar, “they was every one of them boys.” “Ah?” was the bland reply of her companion, “/did not notice.” From the the Atlanta Sun.

Swaine, Commanding, <tc., Atlanta , Ga.: Colonel: Enclosed herewith please tind copy of an original letter, addressed to : you through the Post-office in this city, on the 11th inst. It having been written at a late hour on the evening of that day, and desiring that you should receive it without delay, ; I took the liberty of sending it through the Post-office, supposing that it would reach you, at the latest, by Monday morn ing last. I have not yet received an answer, and fear that the letter has not been received by you. Allow me to ex press tho hope that I shall receive an answer at an early day.

Swaine , Atlanta, , Ga.: Colonel: I have just received a com munication in writing from a number of respectable citizens residing in the county of Warren, to the effect that one John C. Norris was, on Monday last, legally im prisoned in the common jail of that coun ty, to answer before the proper tribunal to the charge of being an accessory before the fact, to .the crime of murder. It is further represented, that on the day following tho imprisonment of Norris, a body of armed soldiers entered the town of Warrenton, and have since remained there with the avowed purpose of guarding him against illegal violence. It is also stated as a prominent fact, that nothing has occurred to excite sus picion even, that the safety of Norris’ per son is in danger, or that he is not entirely secure in the common jail of Warren county. I beg to add, that the gentlemen who send up the statement, are of highly respectable character, and that their state ments are entitled to entire credit. As the Chief Executive of the State of Georgia, it concerns me to know, if the aid of the military power of the United States has boeome necessary for the pro tection of citizens of the State from vio lence, while in the custody of the law. I, therefore, respectfully inquire whether the body of soldiers at Warrenton have been placed there for the purpose mentioned in the foregoing statement; and upon whose requisition, and at whose instance this has been done. I am, Colonel, With great respect, Your obedient servant, James M. Smith. COL. SWAINE TO GOV. SMITH. Hdq’rs, McPherson Barracks, ) Atlanta, Ga., May 14, 1872.)' His Excellency, James M. Smith, Gover nor State of Georgia: Sib —Yonr favor of this date, enclosing a copy of an original letter of the 11th inst., addressed to me through the post office same day, has just been handed me, and I have the honor to inform you that tho original letter referred to has not been received by me. In reply to your letter of the 11th inst., inquiring if the body of armed soldiers at Warrenton have been placed there for tho purpose of guarding one John C. Norris from illegal violence, he being le gally imprisoned in tho common jail of the county of Warren—if so, upon whose requisition, and at whose instance this has been done, and stating it concerns you as the Chief Executive of the State of Georgia, to know if the aid of the mil itary power of the United States has be come necessary for the protection of a citizen of the State from violence, while in the custody of the law, 1 have the honor to inform you— That, under a requisition from the United States Marshal for Georgia, dur ing my absence, the temporary comman der of this post ordered troops to War renton for the purpose mentioned, and I have directed their temporary retention there for the same purpose, at the in stance of United States Marshal, William Smyth, who has informed me that on a previous occasion, a citizen of the State, in the custody of the law, and confined in the same jail, was violently taken there from and murdered. I will refer your communication to the United States Marshal for his remarks, which I will convey to you, and it will afford me pleasure if he will consent to the withdrawal of the troops from duties that, I assure you, are the most disagree able to those obliged to perform them, and for which I make details from my command with great reluctance. Most respectfully, Your obedient servant, P. T. Swaine, Maj. 2d Inf’y, Brevet Col., U. S. A., commanding. GOV. SMITH TO COL. SWAINE. Executive Dep’t, State of Georgia,) Atlanta, May 15, 1872. / Col. P. T. Swaine, Atlanta, Ga.: Colonel: Your favor, in answer to my letters of the 11th and 14th inst., was de livered to me on yesterday, and has re ceived the consideration demanded by the importance of its contonts. 1 have delayed replying, in tho hope of receiving the explanatory remarks of Marshal Smyth, which you expressed the intention of sending me. But I cannot longer refrain from requesting, most ear nestly, that the troops bo no longer con tinued at Warrenton for the purpose avowed by you. I have not boon advised of a necessity for the presence of the mil itary there for tho protection of Norris. Tho reasons which influenced Marshal Smyth to make requisition for troops to be sent to Warrenton, have not been dis closed to me. lam not aware of the ex istence of any law authorizing him to make, or you to comply with, such a re quisition. A most significant fact, and one which throws light upon this whole transaction, is, that no steps seem to have boen taken to ascertain either the ability or the willingness of the civil authorities j to protect the person of Norris. Although j I was in the city of Atlanta, almost within a stone’s throw of the office of Marshal Smyth at the time the requisition was made and the troops were sent, it seemed to have been considered unnecessary to communicate with me upon the subject. It is my duty, as Governor of the State, to take care that the laws be enforced, and to see to it that not only Norris, but nil other citizens of Georgia, have the protection of the laws. My means for doing this are sufficient, without recourse to the military forces of the Government. It is hardly necessary for me to add, that the interference of the military in this case is without warrant of law or fact, ! and can be followed by no good conse ! quences. Enclosed herewith please find an original letter received by me on ves terday from the Hon. R. W. Hubert,' Or ! dinary of Warren county, to which I ask , permission to invite your special attention ! If a military force is to be kept at War renton, under circumstances and for an avowed purpose which render their pres ence there a standing insult to the people, I trust such order may be taken as will render the evil tolerable. The story told bv Judge Hubert, I beg to say, is sadly illustrative of the impropriety of attempt ing to preserve order by the use of un lawful means. According to his state ment, the first reported breach of the pub lic peace, after the arrival of the troops at Warrenton, has been committed by the official whose presence there is assumed to be necessary to preserve order. I cannot close tins communication with out calling your special attention to the statement in your letter to the effect that you had been informed by United States i Marshal, Wm. H. Smyth, that on a pre ; vious occasion a citizen of the State, in | the custody of the law, and confined in the same (Warren comity) jail, was vio ; lently taken therefrom and murdered. This appears as the only reason stated for guarding Norris with the military. If the statement were correct as made, it could hardly be treated as sufficient evidence to warrant the opinion that any violence is intended against Norris. This case, how- I ever, is referred to here mainly to say that, according to reliable information in my possession, the statement in reference thereto given to you by Marshal Smyth, is not marked by the accuracy which ought j to characterize statements of so much im ; portance. I am, Colonel, Very respectfully, James M. Smith. COL. SWAINE TO GOVERNOR SMITH. HD’qcs., McPherson Barracks,) Atlanta, Ga., May 18, 1872. > His Extellency , James M. Smith, Goter of the State of Georgia : Sib : I have the honor to acknowledge your favor of yesterday, handed ine late in the day. and hasten to inform you that I will cheerfully comply with your request, and withdraw the troops from Warrenton without delay. I regret to learn that a want of harmony, amounting to a conflict of authority, ex ists between the civil officers of the State, and tho.->e of the General Government, in regard to this matter, and that our en deavors to act in subordination to, and in uid of the the civil authorities in conse quence thereof, should be characterized as “the interference of military.” With out fully understanding the cause of this failure to act in concert, I am satisfied from the well-known character of Major Wm. 11. Smyth, U. S. Marshal, that he would not intentionally ignore the State officials, particularly the Chief Executive. According to promise, I enclose for the information of your Excellency, the re marks of Major Smyth to me,received last night about an hour after your letter was delivered. To prevent delay, I have not taken time to have them copied, and must therefore, request that they be returned to me at your earliest convenience. If you desire to have a copy of them, I have no objection, of course, to one being taken. I shall take immediate steps for an in vestigation by the proper military tribunal, of the allegations against Lieut. Bateman, in charge of the detachment at Warren ton, and, if guilty of such disgraceful conduct, he will be severely punished. I have the honor to remain, With great respect, Your Excellency's Most obedient serv’t, I’. T. Swaine, Major 2d Inf., Br’t Col. U. S. A. GOV. SMITH TO COL. SWAINE. Executive Dep’t, State of Georgia. ) Atlanta, Georgia, May 1(1, 1872.)’ Col. P. T. Swaine, Atlanta, Ga. : Colonel : I take pleasure in acknowl edging the receipt of your favor of this date, accompanied by the written state ment of United States Marshall Smyth. I avail myself of the privilege, courteous ly granted me, of retaining a copy of the said statement, and return herewith the orignial. Permit me to express my grati fication at your promyt and cheerful com pliance with my wishes in the matter of the withdrawal of the troops from the town of Warrenton. I beg to call your attention to the fact that there is no want of harmony existing between the civil authorities of the Uni ted States and those of the Government of Georgia, in the case which has given rise to this correspondence. I desire that it should be distinctly borne in mind that Norris is in the custody of the laws of this Stale, charged with the violation of the laws of this State, and that it is the exclusive duty of the civil authorities of the State to afford him the protection of its laws while in this situation. Marshal Smyth is not an officer of this State, and has no right whatever to exer cise his functions by virtue of its laws. No case exists in which, by the laws of the United States, he has authority to in tervene. Entertaining these views, I feel constrained to consider his conduct in this atlair as the extra-official and un authorized action of an individual. In using the phrase “interference of the military,” I intended no disrespect to yourself or the officers and soldiers under your command. The Military, having, in my opinion, no lawful right to interfere in the case of Norris, the words were ap propriate, and such as were proper to convey the idea intended to be presented. It is not only my duty, but it is my de sire also, to cultivate kindly official rela tions with the officers of the General Government both civil and military. I beg to suggest, however, in this connec- ! tion, that such relations cannot reasona- ! bly bo expected to exist unless due regard is had by each, to the rights and powers of the others. I am, Colonel, Very respectfully, Your obedient serv’t. James M. Smith. ALABAMA ITEMS. George A. Ryan, residing near Marion, «vas found dead in his bed on the morning of the 15th. No cause assigned.

Richard Busteed, Judge of the United States District Court of Alabama about two years ago instituted an injunction upon It. M. Reynolds, Au ditor of the State of Alabama, restraining the collection of certain taxes assessed up on the Southern Express Company’s busi ness in this State. Reynolds, however, dis regarded the injunction and collected the taxes. Whereupon Judge Busteed is sued a rule nisi from the U. S. District Court, demanding Reynolds’ appearance to show cause for this contempt of court. Reynolds filed an affidavit denying any intentional contempt, and gave tho reasons for his course. This Busteed disregarded, and issued his decree, find ing Reynolds one thousand dollars for contempt of court, and imprisonment, and in language personally offensive to Reynolds. This decree Busteed had pub lished, whereupon Reynolds brought suit against him for libel. The venue of the case was changed from Montgomery to Barbour county, and at the present term of the Barbour Circuit Court the case came up for a hearing, and it was compromised and dismissed from the docket—Busteed entering upon the records of the court a disclaimer as a willful injury to the character of Reynolds, and agreeing to pay the costs of tlio suit, and, perhaps, the lawyer’s fees on the Reynolds side of the case.

Last week a judgement for $70,000 was obtained in the Gadsden Circuit Court against the Jacksonville, Pensacola and Mobile Railroad. The acreage of crops in Jackson conn iy is about fifteen per cent, greater this year than last. This increase is about equally divided between cotton and corn. The Palatka Herald, speaking of the Kapok, or cotton tree, says : This new tree of such commercial importance ought to be extensively introduced in Florida. Mr. Warren has distributed some of the seed to those who are dispos ed to try it. The pod contains an article like cotton, only more elestic and silky, and well adapted to upholsters’ use. The seed produces an excellent oil for me chanical uses, and the cake is good for stock. It is destined to become a very important article for Florida. Twenty of the marines at the Navy Yard at Warrington deserted last week. Several of them have been caught. The Floridian says : One of the indict ments ponding against M. S.

The recent nomination of Mr. Greeley of course constitutes the conversational pabulum of the street. Find a knot of men anywhere and out of it grows a bet or a vote, and as may be expected of New York city, the majority favors the election of the white-coated philosopher. The Southerners here, almost without excep tion, deprecate any action adverse to hnu by the Democratic Convention, and there are those among them who predict a bolt from that Convention by the Southern delegation should Mr. Greeley’s nomina tion not be ratified. Meanwhile he pur sues the even tenor of his way, is seen little in public, writes the most non-com mital of ietters, and modestly refrains from advertising himself in the Tribune. This being the season of anniversaries the Rahaigge, Tagge and Baubtaile of every conceivable “ism” in America are holding their meetings and letting off their usual pyrotechnics. Victoria Wood hull at the head of her long haired clans holds forth at Appollo Hall, and her crazy congregation have nominated the creature for the Presidency, and subscribed three or four thousand dollars for the campaign. The Methodist General Conference have been in session at Brooklyn, reviewing the affairs of the denomination and making arrangements to extend their work. The teetotallers, Swedenborgians, missionary, tract and bible societies, and kindred as sociations organized for the conversion of the heathen at home and abroad of every kind, color and condition have likewise had their annual “flowering,” counted up their receiptsand expenditures, and lapsed into retirement again. One of tho strongest illustrations of the power of the press came to my knowledge the other day. You will remember that, two or three moths ago, the New York journals were teeming with accounts of the run on the Third Avenue Savings Bank, and that others succumbed to the pressure. I have been informed that it occurred in this wise. The New York Sun having occasion to correct some error of state ment, properly sent one of its reporters to bank to obtain the desired facts. _ He was rudely treated, and returned to Mr. Dana, the editor, who thereupon instructed his employee to investigate and open his batteries. The reporter went to his task con amove. It required but a dozen well put lines to arouse suspicion and gather the crowd, and for weeks the place was thronged and the integrity of the bank placed in the greatest jeopardy. Every inducement was offered to the Sun, it is said, to let go its bull-dog grip, but threats, persuasions and proffers alike failed to move the sturdy editor, until his lesson in politeness had been taught, and only then did ho relinquish his hold. Since that time the reportorial fraternity have re ceived from bank officers the common courtesies of life. There are a good may frauds in the com munity that ought to be reached and ex posed in the same way. For instance, one of the great Tea Corporations of New York is flooding the country with circu lars inviting the public to organize clubs for the purchase of tea by the pound or package, and the most extraordinary in ducements in the way of high sounding Chinese names, and low prices, are offered to unsuspecting country people to invest hi what is little better than rank poison. The truth is, that the firm which has a great many green and gold establishments scattered here and there, are known by New Yorkers to have agents engaged in purchasing tea grounds from the different hotels and restaurants, vliicli are dried, mixed with chemicals and a small propor tion of fresh tea, perfumed, and then put up in attractive parcels, and sent forth at a price somewhat below trade rates to poi son unsuspicious lovers of the beverage. The entire cost of the drug thus prepared is probably not twenty cents a pound. It is a traffic quite as pernicious as that of the swindling liquor dealer. The past week has been strongly pro ductive of large fires both in the city and neighborhood, and insurance companies have suffered heavily. A conflagration of the woods is raging in Ulster county, near Poughkeepsie, even whilo I write, and whole villages are threatened with destruc tion. There also seems to be an epidemic in crime. Broken heads, perforated bodies, suicides, and murders constitute the re cord of local events, and people are be ginning to talk about it —which is some thing in New York. One woman has married a whole family of Smiths, father, sons, brother-in-law, and everything else that wears breeches. One of them at last went crazy—had the “jim jams,” shot the woman, and so, the party have come to grief. Another poor soul soused her nine days’ old baby in a bucket of water, because her husband is on his way home after a three years’ ab sence. Cause, remorse—result, insanity. “By their fruits shall ye know them.” I have just had occasion to examine the new cancer remedy introduced by the U. S. Government from Equador, and about which there has been considerable discus sion in the newspapers. I find it to be not a patent medicine as I supposed, but a mere fibrous root, the bark of which is ground and infiltrated in the ordinary manner. Its name is Cundurango, and Dr. Keene, the government agent, informs me that it is as well known in Peru for its remedieal qualities, and is as extensive ly used for all affections of the blood as our mustard and worm-wood are known here. There are two or three varieties, however, and care should be observed in selecting the best. That which is import ed by Doctors Bliss and Keene of this { city, who went to Equador for the purpose j of reporting upon the facts to the State j Department, is under the supervision of j the directors of the Peruvian hospitals, and therefore pure. The manufacture of ! the article is immense, and the cures of ! well known persons which have attended its use, especially in this city arc attract- | ing a great deal of attention. I am informed of a gallant act perform ed in mid ocean by Captain Berry of the steamship Charleston, which plies between the port by that name and this city, j While he was standing on the promenade | deck, a little child in the arms of its j nurse, either sprang or fell overboard. As quick as thought the noble fellow fol lowed, and almost before tho little one touched the water, he had the child in his arms and safe. Being an excellent swim mer ho sustained himself until tho steamer j was stopped and boats came to the rescue. | The weather is in advance of the sea son, and white hats, thin clothes and soda j water have commenced their reign. The ■ great parks are thronged with visitors, I every afternoon, and summer resorts are \ beginning to fill up with city guests. The summer books promise to be unu sually readable. All of the publishers j announce more or less of the best reprints | and translations. One of the most enter taining volumes thus far issued is by E. J. Hale & Son, entitled “Dare Fairfax,” a charmingly written life-story in which I romance, sentiment and fine descriptive j powers are combined to hold the attention : of the reader from beginning to end. Tho same firm publish “Salted with Fire,” and a strange semi-scientific satire on Crea tion, called “The Comet”—a book which, if written in England would have made a life-long reputation for its author, and have been wondered at by mankinef. The Aldine is out with its usual superb | array of pictures and intellectual food. | It is the only newspaper in America so intrinsically valuable as to be an ornament on every library table, and an educator of ! the popular taste. The publishers are James Sutton <st Cos., 23 Liberty street. A Tale that is Told. — St. Louis , May 20. —-The Republican this m oraing states that it has on reliable authority, advices from Washington of a bold scheme medi tated by the Administration party to se cure the re-election of Grant. The plan, as stated, is that a number of influential Southern men have been invited to Wash ington without being informed of what they were to come for, and some of these gents are now in that city, to whom a pro position has been made that if they will send delegates from the Southern States to Baltimore instructed to demand a Dem ocratic nomination, or to bolt the Con vention in ease it refuses to take that step and make nominations, the Administra tion party will pass the bill to refund the cotton tax, grant aid to the Atlantic and Great Western Canal of Georgia, and grant aid and subsides to other Southern enterprises and schemes now before Con gress. Political Notes.— The Republican Na tional Committee has received official ad vices of the election of 380 delegates to the Philadelphia Convention, 308 of whom have been instructed to vote for President Grant's re-nomination.

The following arc the advantages of this Machine: It is simple; the facility with which it is worked, its clioapncss and its durability making it the most practical Machine yet invented. The only Machine now competing with it is Carre’s Ammonia Patent, a Machine as com plicated as it is expensive and dangerous. The Carre Machine must have steam as a Motive Power; this can be worked with any Power: the Carre Machine works under a pressure of 210 to 250 lbs. to the square inch; this Machine from 40 to 60 lbs., therefore an economy in material and an absence of danger. This Machine works with Methylic Ether, consists of a pump which aspires gas from a vase containing Ether, called the freezing box, then pumps into a conical worm placed in a vessel of water, where it liqui fies and is received in the Ether Reservoir, from whence a small stream of liquid ether is allow ed to escape to the freezing box.
