then by some considerable signs of dullness in

the reader muat attribute them to accidents that
will not happen, rather than to any disinclination
to hunt np and write up accidents. One cannot
makes full salt oat of cloth enough to make only
a pair of pantaloons, nor can a barrel of flour be
ground out of four bushels of grain."
Thk Atlanta Herald of the Ist Instant says:
“ This morning and hereafter it la demanded by
the great and good government under which we
live that newspapeia shall pay postage upou each
one of its exchanges. We merely allude to it to
day to aay that the editor* of the Hbbald feel
that they cannot welt spare any oi their State Ex
changes, and that they will cheerfnliy pay postage
go all of their present list ot exchanges rather
than give np any one of them. Apd we trust
that with each aud every one ot them we shall
have (91 maqy a year that same pleasant and
cheerful intercourse that has existed in the put,
We caa all prosper yet, brother editors, despite
this mean little law. It was passed by a revenge

Rumors.
Madame Rumor Is a very unreliable creature,
yet she has more believers than the Christian re
ligion. Her faintest whispers are to teas of thou
sands the trumpet blasts of truth. It is strange,
bnt as true as it is strange, that the more ex
travagant and unreasonable her reports Is, the
greater is the confidence placed in her word.
There are tens of thousands who believe every
bad report, and shake their heads with grave sus
picions over every good ofte. They are quick to
place rascality and hypocrisy to the credit of their
neighbors, but are alow to cancel them when fact*
disapprove them. We see this illustrated daily.
The tongue of idle gossip star s a base slander
about some public character. It is caught up and
retailed as truth. Not a particle of evidence goes
with It, yet it is believed, and when evidence to
disapprove it follows, people handle it cautiously
and look over it for some flaw or coulrudictioo,
hoping to And some plausible ground ou which to
reject it, and thus confirm their worst suspicious
True, this public character may have stood before
the public gaze a score ol years without a blemish
or a tault, hut a single breath of slander destroys
in an hour the confidence which years of honora
ble toil have inspired.
This is wrong! A good reputation should be a
shield to the man or woman who wears it. It
should entitle them to the fullest measure of pub
lic confidence, until rumor takes the form of facts.
We should not call upon them to prove a nega
tive, but demand from the accuser positive proof
that what is charged is true. Nor should respec
table journals cireulate thiß miserable gossip that
is born of envy or malace. A single line in type
may efleet an injury that can never be repaired.
Better ignore all rumors that affect personal char
acter than to be a party to a wrong. If a rumor is
true ycu can afford to wall for its confirmation.
If it la false, It should never be strengthened by
your influence.
Trifles.—Our livee, or rather our happiness
and misery, are in a great measure made up of
trifles; just as time is made up of moments. The
discomfort of having to wait for a meal beyond its
regular hour, of finding things ill-prepared or
carelessly done, of meeting slovenliness and dis
comfort where a little thoght or pains might
have introduced ease and even elegance, or of be
ing brought up sharp at every turn by want of
punctuality or of method—these are ilia more dif
ficult to bear than the unitiated imagine. Most
houses might be comfortable and elegaut. Yea
elegant! For comfort consists in finding pvery
tbing where and as it should be ; elegaucex in ad
ding to what should be there, that which izced not
be there, but whose presence, surprises, attracts
and gratifies. There is ofteu neither comfort nor
elegance in the richest mansions, while both are
found iu the laborer’s cottage. A jug filled with
flowers, a neat white curtain, a couple of flower
pots, may effect what the expenditure of hun
dreds of dollars has not achieved. Let it not be
said that these are mere trifles, unworthy the at
tention of a Christian. Distrust the pretence of
spirituality whose eyes are too lofty for the com
mon things of life. Iu the long catalogue of
things of life ; in the long catalogue of the things
to “think on” (Phil, vi, 8) they rank at any rate
among the “whatsoever things are lovely.” You
say they are trifles; tbeu all the more they ought
not to be neglected But trifles though they be,
to neglect them is not a trifle it is a breach of
plain duty. —Heat th Jb Home.

Lee and Jackson at Chickahomint.— The
Edinburg Review for April contains the follow
ing Interesting piece ot history in relatiou to Gen.
Lee and Stonewall Jackson, at the battle of Chio
ahomiuy:
“ A few minutes more, and the gallant soldier
lilmself appeared ou the scene aud rode up to
greet Lee, cheered by Longstreet’s men, already
veterans enough iu war to understand wbal bis
coming meant. Nothing, it has beeu said, of this
first meeting of these great soldiers ou the battle
field could be iu more striking contrast than the
appearance of the two. Haudsome in face and
figure, finely mounted, a graceful rider, calm-vis
aged and carefully dressed, Lee pieseuted the
beau ideal ol the commander whose outward bear
ing always captivated the soldier's eye. His fa
mous lieuteuant rode, apparently by choice, an
ill-groomed, rawbonod horse, and sat so short
stliruped as to give his figure the moat awkward
appealauce. An old cadet’s cap, evidently a relic
of the college professorship he had uot long since
left, wsß drawn over his eyes. His coat was not
only threadbare, but* ill-brushed, and bis words
were jerked out iu short, abrupt seutenccs, be
tween which he sucked the lemon which was, as
usual, his sole relreshmeut during his day’s worn.
Yet each already understood the other, and valued
him at his true worth. “ That’B a heavy fire down
yonder,” said Lee, as the Federal guns opened in
reply to Jackson’s. “Can your men stand it?”
“ They can s f and anything. They can stand that.”
was the emphatic reply; and after a few words
of order aud explanation be left his chief to lead
on the attack. This was decisive, aided as it was
by a fresh advance troops not before engaged. The
Federals were turned, overmatched, and driven
from their positiou, and before dark the shattered
remains ol Porter’s force were crossing the Chick
abomiuy in hasty retreat. Lee’s field of battle, in
fact, was a striking success, and as well earned as
any of the more famous victories in after days,
which have been so wiuAly studied and so often
extolled. No word henceforth from his Govern
ment of any want of confidence in his powers, or
fear of his over-caution. From that hour he be
came the most trusted as well as the most noted
General of the Confederacy. As to his soldiery,
his hardy bearing, tree self-exposure, and constant
presence near their ranks, completed tbe influence
gained by that power of combining their force to
advantage, which they instinctively felt without
fully understanding. From mau to man flew the
•tory of the hour. The subtle Influence of sym
pathy which wius many hearts for one, was never
more rapidly exercised. Like Napoleor, his
troops soon learned to believe him equal to every
emergency that war could bring. Like Hannibal,
be could speak lightly and calmly at the gravest
moments, being himself least grave. Like Rag
lan, he preserved a sweetness of temper that no
person or circumstances could ruffle. Like C
sar, he mixed with the crowd of soldiery freely,
and never tested that his positiou would be for
gotten. Like Blucher, his one-recognized fault
was that which the soldier readily forgives—a
readiness to expose his lite beyond the proper
limitations permitted by modern war to the com
madder-in-chief. What wonder, then, if he thence
forward commanded an army In whleh each
man would Lave died (or him; an army from
which his parting wrung tears mors bitter than
any tbe (all of their cause could extort; an army
which followed him, after three years of glorioua
vicissitudes, luto private life, without one thought
of further resistance against tbe fate to which their
ad red chief yielded without a murmur.”
A raw years since there was a Presbyterian
minister at Columbus, Miss., who had a horror ol
shoutiug in church, which fact was well known to
his congregation. Cjne dqf, step he had preached
a very spiritual sermon, au old lady was observed
to leave thechqrcfi in a very hasty manner. Meei
iug her a few days after, the minister asked why
she had rushed from the church so suddenly urn
Sunday before. "Wall." she responded, "the
fact is, I was ao filled with grace ip listening to
your arrtpoa, that I toned 1 couldn’t contain my
aelt, so I ran over to ths Methodiat church
the way and shouted.”
FORSYTH, GEORGIA. TUESDAY MORNING JUNE 10. 1873.
My Choice.
Yes, I know there are stains on my carpet—
The traces of small, muddy boots;
Aud I see yonr fair tapestry glowing
All spotless with blossoms and fruits.
And I know that my walls are disfigured
With prints ot small fingers and hands ;
And I see that your own household whiteness
All fresh in its purity stands.
Yes, I know my “ black walnut” is battered,
And denied by mauy small heels ;
While your own polished stairway all perfect
Its smooth, shining surface reveals.
Aud I know that my partor is littered
With many old treasures and toys ;
While yonr own is in daintiest order.
Unharmed by tbe presence of boys.
And I know that my room is invaded
(Juite boldly all hours'of the day ;
While you sit iu your own unmolested,
And dream the soft quiet away.
Yes, I know I have jackets that wear out,
And buttons that never will slay ;
While you can embroider at leisure,
And learu pretty arts of “ croquat.”
And I kuow there are lessons of spelling,
Which I must be patient to hear;
While you may sit down to your novel,
Or turn the last magazine near.
Yes, I know there are four little bedsides
Where I must stand watchlul each night,
While you may go out iu your carriage,
And flash in your dresses so bright.
No! keep your fair home, with its order,
Its freedom trom trouble and noise;
And keep your own faucitul leisure—
But give me my four splendid boys.
Tee Grand Arm? of tub Republic.— The Co
lumbus Enquirer has struck tbe key-note ou tbe
above named organization, for which all patriots
entertain feelings of disgust and contempt. Every
word should be endorsed;
“A more unmanly, mean and cowardly resolu
tion waa never passed by even a pack of political
bummers than this; and, if we were not fully ac
quainted with this mystical organization, we
might raise our bands in holy horror and bluab
for the manhood ol our race and the ex-aoldtera of
the army.
“The Grand Army of the Republic was organ
ized seven years ago in Illinois, and the iutentiou
of its founders was to make it a charitable associ
ation, to which soldiers of both parties could be
long and mutually aid in care of those left destitute
by the war. It worked well enough for a few
years and then old soldiers began to fight shy ot
It, for they found that it was made the machine to
elevate political soldiers into office; and duriug
the last four years its ranks have been depleted
by good men, and now it is controlled completely
by these soldier politicians who are principally
distinguished by their ignorance ot war and their
familiarty with the strategy of politic* and the
counting of election returns. The whole “ Grand
Army” does not number throughout tbe entire Un
ion twenty thousand men, though fifteen hundred
thousand soldiers were mustered out of the U nion
service at the close of the war. We knew whereof
we speak, know the men, their ritual oft changed,
their individual names and records, and in the
name of the true men and brave, who fought for
what they deemed right, we hereby denounce the
organisation known as “ Tbe Grand Army” as a
political fraud, an aggregation of bummera who,
fearing the rebel living, now like hyenas, gather
to snarl above the dead. If we had been Confed
erates this would seem barsb to Northern ears,
but we truly fought for the Union, starved for
it, and did our duty as God gave us light. Nay,
more, we commanded, in its purity, the largest
department of this grand army, aud feel author
ized iu saying that the dregs that now constitute
li are the cowards and poltroons of war, and the
repeaters, snobs and little politicians of peace.
They fear trouble, if the friends of the Confeder
ate dead gather ou tbe 30th of May to decorate
the graves of the fallen ? The poor fools, they
may have women and children to oppose them ;
there would be no trouble if men stood in their
front.”
A Brave Orator.—From the Atlanta Consti
tution we clip tbe following:
“ We have told our readers how the decoration
of the Federal dead at Arlington was decreed by
the Federal authorities to be conducted ou tbe
basis of exclusion of all honor to tbe Confederate
dead lying there. The matter has evoked sema
stinging comment and dissent from many and high
source* North and West. But the most eloquent
condemnation came from tbe brave orator who
delivered the address at Arlington on the day of
the decoration. The address was a magnificent
one, and the speaker, an eminent and well known
divine, Mr. De Witt Talmage.
“ Speaking of the Grand Army of the Republic,
that bad declared the memorial ostracism of the
Southern dead, and speaking of the President and
officials that had indorsed the said ostracism to
the extent of restriction, the day for Federal com
memoration, the eloquent and courageous ora
tor thus rebuked tbe ostracism and its perpetra
tors :
“Let nothing be done to s'ir up the old feud
between tne North and South. Surely there has
been blood enough shed and groans enough have
been uttered and families enough destroyed to
satisfy the worst man on earth and the
worst demon in the pit; and if, among the
holocaust of the dead, any hand, North or
Boutb, shall ever be lifted to tear down z
peace established at so much sacrifice, may
that hand turn white with the snow of an in
curable leprosy. Instead of flowers upon such a
villain’s grave let the who e nation come and fling
z mountain of nettles snd nightshade. lam told
that after a Southern woman had decorated the
grave of a Southern soldier a Northern man, wear
ing a uniform, took up the wreath and threw it to
the winds. He may have had on the epaulettes,
but he was unworthy of the name of soldier. I
would that all the wreaths that have ever been
laid upon the graves of the Northern and South
ern dead might be lifted and linked together, each
garland a link, and that, with that one long
bright, pleasant chain, *
A CHAIN OF ROSES AND LILIES,
this whole nation might be encircled in everlast
ing uuity and good feeing. This is the only kind
ol chaiu Americans will ever conser t to wear and
woe to the government that ever tries to forge
another.” ’ *
Thk White Modoc Chief.— The Cincinnati En
quirer gives the following about Joaquin Mil
ler and his connection with the Modocs: It may
not he generally known that a few yeara ago—
somewhere about ISSS, probably—the head chief
of the Modoc Indians was a white man, who bad
joined the tribe, and tak6n to himself, "for better
or worse, ’* a dusky maiden of the Modoc persua
sion, with whom be lived and loved for some
ye are. This head cheit was no h-ea a person
than the now celebrated Oregon poet, Joaqnin
Miller.
Wnile reigniug as clieif of this warlike band,
probably to more securely establish hia title to
the chelftainship and gain the fullest confidence
of his adopted brothers, the red-skins, he concoct
ed ths diabolical plan of attacking and sacking
the city of Yreka, California. Joaquin himself
visited Yreka and examined the approaches and
cbaoces of an easy capture.
Consumption of Rick.—Statistics show that
the amount ol foreign rice consumed iu thia coun
try has fallen from ninety two million pound* In
IStH to twenty eight million pounds in 18T0. Add
tug the domestic product to the latter figures wa
find tbetoUi consumption to baa trifie less than
one hundred million pounds. The domestic crod
it estimated at about seveu’y five million pound*,
and the domestic export at less than two million
pounds. Down to 1861, or at the time the war
broke out, the Uoited States was a large ex
porter of rice, the amount varying from 43,000,-
000 to 81,000,000 pounds per annum daring the
