Tli<* Editor’* Gucul*.
***•** * * *
The Editor *t in hi* sanctum snd looked the old
man in the eye,
Then glanced at iljc grinning young hopeful, ana
mournfully made his reply:
•*l, jour son a {mall unbound edition of Moses
and Solomon both ?
(Jan he compass hia spirit with meekners, and
strangle a natural oath?
Can he leave all bis wrongs to the future, aad
carry his heart in his cheek ?
Can he do an hour’s work in a minute, and l.ve
on a sixpence a week V
Can Ik courteously talk to an equal, aud brow
beat an impudent dunce ?
Can h<- keep things in apple-pie order, and do half
a dozen at once ?
Can he. press all the springs of knowledge, with
quick and reliable touch ?
And be sure that he knows how much to know,
and knows how to not know too much ?
Does he know how to spur up his virtue, and put
a < beck-rein on his pride?
Can e i ,rry a gentleman's manners within a rhi
noceros’ hide?
Ci r . ■ l' now ail, and do aii, snd be all, with cheer
fitness, courage and vim ?
If so, v, perhaps can be makin’ an editor ‘outen
ol him.’ ”
And ’tis thus with our noble profession, and thus
it will ever be, still
There are some who appreciate its labors, and
some who perhaps never will.
Hut in the great tone that is coming, when loudly
the trurnpbet shall sound.
And they who have labored and rested shall come
from the quivering ground ;
When they who have striven and 6uSered to teach
and ennoole the race,
Shall march at the lrout of the column, each one
in his God-given place,
As they pass through the gates of The City with
proud and victorious tread,
The editor, printer, aud “devil,” will travel not
far from the head.
A K*cr Examination.— The following racy
examination of candidates for admission to the
bar is taken from the Western Law Journal. The
examination commenced with :
“ Do you smoke ?”
“ I do sir.”
“ Have you a spare cigar ?”
“ Yes sir, (Extends a short six.)
“ Now, sir, what is the first duty of a lawyer ?’
“ To collect fees.”
“ Right. What is the second ?”
“ To increase the number of clients.”
“ When does the position towards client*
change ?”
“ When makiug out a hill of costs.”
“ Explain.”
“We then occupy the antagonistic position. I
become the plaintiff and he becomes the defend
ant.”
“ A suit decided, how do you stand with the
lawyer on the other side ?”
“Cheek, by jowl.”
“ Enough sir. You promise to become an or
nament to your profession, and I wish you suc
cess. Now, are you aware of ithe duty you owe
me ?”
•* Perfectly.”
“ Describe it.”
“ It is to invito you to drink.”
“Rut suppose I decline?”
Candidate scratches his head.
“ There is no instance of the kind on record in
the books. I cannot answer the question.”
“ Yon are right. And the confidence with
which you make Ike assertion shows conclusively
that you read the law attentively. Let’s take a
drink and I will sign your certificate at once.”

An Englishman, who was visiting this country
on pleasure and in quest of information, writes to
Ibe New York Sun that lie knows he ha* bee*
very iuquisitive, but that he always found the
Americaus very polite in general. I must except,
however, the governmental officials. The other
day I sauntered into one of the city branch post
offices in Astor place. After posting my letter I
sought information from the clerk about the arri
-1 aud departure of the foreign mails, etc., and
nding him, as I supposed, a nice, agreeable
young man, and the office quite deserted, I ven
tured a few more interrogations on domestic
sut jucts, such as his mode of living, amount of
salary, number of children, and other little harm
less topics, when he suddenly pulled out his port
monnaie aud handed me a little card, which I pre
sumed was an invitation to join his domestic cir
cle, when to my astonishment I discovered there
on the figure of a corpse fyiug in his coffin, with
these words inscribed, ‘This man was talked to
death.’ I need not tell you that I vacated the
premises immediately; and having since learned
that the course pursued has been authorized by
tile l ostmester General, I have deemed it neces
sary to ask the intervention of my minister, and
while Sir Edward Thornton is conducting corre
spondence attending the insult, I deem it my
duty to lay the facts before the public, in order
that they may see for themselves what sort of
people are employed by the use of moneys wrung
from their puci.ets through unjust taxation and
Incivility.”
(Jguldn t Make Her Hear. —Deaf people, who
are not dumb, too, are made to furnish the fun to
many a little v.ayside comedy in this world—with
out knowing it:
Between Kenosha anil Milwaukee, an agent of
the Travelers Insurance Company ot H&rttord
Conn., entered the car, and, having issued tickets
to several of the passengers, approached an eldsr
ly lady who, it aitenvards appeared, was desf.
“ Madam, would yon like to insure against ac
cidents!'” inquired the agent, at the same time
exhibiting to tier his tickets.
“ I got my ticket down to Kenosha.”
“Not a railroad ticket, madam. I want to
know if you would like to insure your life against
accident ?’’ *
" I’m going- to Oshkosh, to visit my darter, who
is married up there, and has just got a baby.”
I he agent raised his voice a little.
“Would you like to insure your life against
accident
“She’s been married two years and a half, and
that’s the first child. It’s a gal.”
Agent, still louder:
“ I’m an insurance agent, madam. Don’t you
want your lite Insured against accident?”
“ She is doing well, and has a tine husbaud.”
Agent, at the top ot his voice :
“ I’m an insurance agent, madam. Don’t you
want your life insured against accident ?”
“O, 1 didu’t understand you,” said the old lady.
* No; her name is Johnson; my name Is Evan,
aud 1 live five miles from Kenosha.”
The agent vanished.
C heating Conscience.— When Lully, the cele-
Uiated composer, was once dangerously ill, his
lriends sent tor a coulessor ; who finding his situ
ation critical, and his mind much agitated and
alarmed, told him there was only one way by
w b'.ch he could obtain absolution, and that was,
by burning all that he had composed of an unpub
lished opera. Kmionetrance was in vain. Lully
burnt his music, aud ths confessor withdrew. On
his recovery, a nobleman who was his patron
calling to see him, was informed ot the sacrifice
which he had made. “Aud so," said he, ‘‘you
have burnt your opera, and you are really such a
blockhead as to believe iu the absurdities of a
monk ?” “ Stop my friend, stop,” said Lully,
whispering iu his ear. “ I knew very well what 1
was about—l have another copy.”

ihe maximum depth ol the ocean is about six
milts, end the part ol the atmosphere in which
we can breath is of about the same extent. It is
within thia limited zone ol twelve miles that place,

which inhabit the lowest depths to the plants

limited when compared to the size of the earth,

A Western farmer, it is reported, reluses to
look at a simple sewing machine recently, as he
always “ sowed wheat by hand.” lie Is said to be
related to the man who did not want s threshing
machine on his farm ; “ lor,” said he, “give me a
harness tug or a barrel stave, and I can make my
family toe the mark according to law and Scrip
ttr.”

Th*C*ntrai. Railroad Pav Train. — A Colum
bus paper speaking of the admirable system of
paying off employes and others haviDg claims on
the Ceutral Railroad, and the arrangement and
management of the pay train, says: “ Few people
have any correct idea of the importance of this
special train, which, making its monthly trips to
our city, brings a large amount of money to the
mechanics, laborers and officials of the Southwest
ern Railroad, the greater portion of which is spent
with our owu merchants aud in our own city. This
train consists of six cars, including a kitchen, di
ning room, sleeping room and pay department,
with the balance for provisions, baggage and other
necessary articles. Mr. W. O. Charlton, for nearly
thirty years connected with the road, is the pop
ular and efficient paymaster, withF. E. Courvoisie
as assistant, and Mr. John McG’ashiua in charge
of the provision department.
‘‘The money die each person is placed in an
envelope at Savannah, and, with pay rolls to guide
him, the paymaster starts out from tnat city, the
engineer. Mr. Joe Connelly, knowing when and
where to stop to pay of! the working gangs and
ether employes. The train goes to Augusta,then
back to Millcn, thence to Eatonton and back to
Macon and Columbus, From this city it returns
to Fort Valley and thence to Arlington, Perry,
Fort Gains and Clayton, the terminus of the vari
ous branch lines on that route. From Clayton it
goes back to Macon and passes on to Atlanta, at
which point the paying ofi ceases, aad the train
returns to Savannah. The entire trip occupies
about two weeks, and in this time marly fourteen
hundred miles are traversed. The stock killed
daring the month past is also paid for on these
trips, and averages on the lines this side of Macoß,
nearly a thousand dollars per month.
“The whole system is admirably arranged, and
no delay transpires. Each supervisor is notified
by telegraph to have his overseers, with their men
ready on a given day, and the train stops only
abont ten minutes to pay them off, as everything
is prepared beforehand.”
Bocth Carolina Kc-Klux.—From Washing
ton dispatches wedearn that a delegation of prom
inent citizens from South Carolina, consisting of
Hon. W. D. Porter, Gen. J. B. Kershaw, R. W.
Sims, and S. A. Durham, accompanied by Assist
ant Secretary Sawyer, of the treasury, waited on
Attorney General Williams, on the 24th, and re
questing all proceedings.in that State in reference
to the outrages of the Ku-klux Klan, be suspend
ed, and urging the pardon of those already con
fined in the Albany penitentiary. They represent
that as an organization the Klan has ceased to
exist in that State, and that a lenient policy on the
part of the government will tend to restore peace
and order. Attorney General Williams informed
them It was the policy of the Government to pros
ecute only aggravated cases, orders having already
been given to that effect, and that as soon as the
President was fully satisfied that peaceable citi
zens would be protected in their property and
life, a general suspension of prosecution would
be desirable.
Be also informed the delegation that many Ku
klux prisoners had been pardoned, and pardons
would be issued to the others, the most aggrava
ted cases being detained till the last.
The delegation was much pleased with the en
couragement given by the Attorney General. The
delegation will visit Long Branch and have an in
terview with President Grant.
Tub Atlanta Constitution says ; We trust the
friendß of Judge Linton Stephens who may have
preserved any of his letters will send t hem at once
to the biographer, Colonel J. D. Waddell, who
is preparing a memorial volume. It is labor of
love to one who is competent to do the subject
full justice. The friends and admirers of the es
teemed and honored subject of the memorial vol
ume are not confined to State or section, and will
anxiously look for this tribute to bis memory.
The address of Colonel Waddell, is Marietta, Ga.
