GA. GREENSBORO, GA., JULY 27, .1867. To Mary—the “ Angel of Iffy Life." nv ceoikie tie feu.or, Let those who will at friendship sneer, And deem its mystic spell A self deceiving policy. Which clients the world as well ; They ne’er have known a Jovo like think, A love that knows no change— But beams as constant ns the stnrs Through life’s extended range. I have no words to say how dear Thou, Mary, art to me; The Treasures of a world Pd scorn, If offered me fur thee! For high, o'er earthly fame or wealth, Or worldly power above, One thing 1 prize, my own Mary, ’Tis thy devoted lo\e ! For joy, unless thou shnr’rt it too, Is never joy to me; E’en sorrow loses half its sting When comforted by thee ! And be my let a joyous one, Or fraught with deadly ill Thine eye meets mine with loving glance, Tliine arm surrounds ine still. Whnt though this world is cruel—fierce, And weighs the spirit down ; With thee my heart doth lose its care, My brow its heavy frown. Thou art the ' Angel of my life,’ For whom, might I command. The earth should shower her rarest gifts ’Round thee on every hand. And when the sun of life shall set, And comes the night of death ; I would that none hut thou shouldst take My last faint parting breath. Then, with thy kiss upon my lips, Leave me-to m)' repose— Mcthinks ’twill hallow e’en the sleep “Which no more waking knows.” Registration. —On Tuesday last wc went through the ceremony of legalizing our rights of suffrage. We went before “the Board” and swore that we hadn’t held office before the war (because we wan’t popular enough to get it); then we swore that we would do ever so many things in the future, and make all our neighbors do it. The boss register, forti fied with an old copy of the “Opinion’’ in one hand, and the latest instructions from Gen. Pope in the other, gently reclining upon the bosom of George Pitts, “administered” to us, and we forthwith became one of “the Lord’s anointed,’’ duly qualified to go to the polls on terms of perfect equality with the blackest dar key in the land, provided tbe law isn’t changed again before the election—for all of which privileges wc feel truly grateful. When we consider that our individual grandfather on both sides of the house fought bravely for American independence—tlm one five years, the other seven, aud went down to their graves well scarred with wounds received from British foes, feel profoundly grateful to tlie present proprietors of American dunghill patriotism for the inestimable privileges thus conferred upon us, and hope to live to see the day when we shall be able to repay the entire debt with compound interest. — Griffin Star. A Letter from Paris says: “The mixture of Eastern nationalities here just now is striking. 1 should think every ‘caste’ was represented. No sooner do you get rid of a Turk than you meet a Parisian ; pass him and you come to an Egyptian; a Siamese twin or two next meet you ; and, finally, a fine and very black Nubian. Heirs to thrones are so common that we do not take any notice of them ; and so impatient is Paris that 1 regret to say that people arc beginning to complain because there are tio Empes rors or Kings here—only one little Vice roy and a couple of Royal Princes!” A friend who has made some inquiry on the subject, informs us that at least one thousand bushels of wheat were grown within the corporate limits of the town this year. The yield was very heavy in some instances. Major Bear ing, for example, made 301 bushels on a single acre. —Athens Watchman. Georgia must look t.o_ her laurels—or rather to her “finders.’’ An exchange paper tells us that a cargo of 37,000 bushels of African peanuts arrived last week at Boston, which has resolutely determined to put itself at the head of the peanut trade. Radical Inconsistency. While the Republicans are loud and long in proclamation of hostility to the “hateful oligarchy of the skin”—that is the phrase — they are proposing a war of extinguishment against the Indians of the border; and in California the rccent'y constructed platform of the Republican party in tbe State Las a plank upon which is inscribed; ‘‘That the importation of the Chinese or any other peo ple of the Mongolian race into the Pacific States or Territories is in every respect in jurious and degrading to American labor, by forcing it into unjust and ruinous compe tition, and an evil that should be restricted by legislation and abated by such legal and constitutional means as are in our power.” The sections of the state in which no ne groes live, are those most earnest in demand ing their rights. W hen Negroes, Indians, or Chinese do live, all parties are in favor of excluding them from tho political family.— Ilec. Dem. How Smithson got a Wife. Mr. Smithson (an improvement on the name of S ;kh) wishes to take Miss llrownly (another improvement) to the t-p-rn. H had been on terms of intimacy with the fam ily f>r about five yeais, but “never spoke of low;” on the contrary, he had fn qceiitly <le elated his intention of leading a bachelor’s life. Once he put his hand to the hell handle and was admitted. “O 1 James,” a claimed Miss Jane, “where have you k- pt yourself so long?' Tbi> took Smithson a little aback, for ho lutd spent the preceding evening with the family. Before he oout-.ffiaii swer, how.Vcr’ Jane’s brothers and sisters (eight or ten in number) had gath-red about him. Summoning all his courag >, he said: “I have come to ask you ” N.t here, Junes; not—now—oh! “That is,” stam mered Smithson,“if you’re not engaged ’ “Oh ! oh ! water—quick !” “What's that ?” inquired her father; “who sa\ s engaged?” ‘I didn’t mean—•—’’said Smithson, in con iii-ion. “Os course not,” continued Mr. Brown!}; “you’ve always been our favorite I’’ Then advancing and taking poor Smithson’s hand, lie said : “Take her—shu’s a good giil, and loves you to distraction. May you evei be as happy as the day is long.” There upon futile! ar.d mother and children crowded about Smitlison and wished him j >y, and campany corning in at the moment, tho af fair was told to them as a profound secret. So Smithson got a wife without pepping the question, and almost before lie knew it him self. But we cannot help thinking he was hurried into matrimony. A correspondent of the Sumter Republic can, writing from Alpharetta, July who says he has visited twenty counties, says: If my eyes and ears have been faithful me dia of information we have much cause as a people, to be delighted and pleased. Never, in my life, do I remember to have seen at this season of tho year, a more promising corn crop, than tho present one. I am pleas ed to see that the p?a and potato crops have not been neglected, and are Broking fn.e'v. As regards the wheat crop, the news is still bet ter, as it may he considered beyond contin gency, it being harvested and secured, and very soon will he thrown upon the market in quantities that will astonish both sellers and buyers. Colored People Who Think.— ln the village if Terry, Hauls county, Miss., die 4th was c. let rated by a barbecue and speak ing by whites and blacks, of whom 3 000 were resent. Ex Governor A. G. Brown presided and several other di.-fingui.-hed Mi.— sissippians addressed die crow-1, and so did Rulla Williams, Ge-'. W. ilairis and other colored men. The distinguished feature of the meeting was, that although 2,800 of the 3 000 were Hacks, Radicals and Radicalism were Lhe chief 01-j.-cts ot denunciation. The negro speeches wore sensible and show that the colored rr.en up there are beginning to com prehend how hypocritical is the R idica! as sumption that they are the only tiue fiiends of the negro. Here in Mobile the same ideas are crawl, ing through the. heads of the colored men and that class is as distinctly divided into two parlies, as ever were the Whigs aud Democrats in old times. The Congressional tyrants may yet dis cover that in the negro suffrage lottery they have drawn an elephant. —Advertiser dt Reg ister. The man who with a hammer smashes the end of his own finger, thinks he hasn’t hit the right nail on the head. A stump orator declared that he knew no North, no South, no East, no West. ‘Then,’ said a bystander, “go to school and learn geography.” A Georgia paper asked whether it is sup posed that Southern people will run North ern men ? I’rentico answers ; “ Well, we believe they did occasionally run a few ot them during the war.” —•• *- tm Whatever we may think of a woman’s right to vote and legislate, there can be no dispute to their rights to bare arms—and the prettier the better and inure irresistible. Why is an elephant, running forcibly against a laige tree, like a traveler on a railroad ? Because he gets his trunk checked. Sickles has written Senator Trumbull, ur sdog general amnesty, ixcept individuals to bo named, on the ground, among otheis, that few of the enfranchised classes are fit to hold iffiee. Death of as Editor.— We regret to hear of the death of Win. N. Esq., Editor and I’roprietor of the Southern Cultivator, which took place on Sunday last, at his resi dence in Athens, Ga. Through his energy and industry tbe Cultivator was second to no other Agricultural paper in the country. — New Era, Worth Knowing. —One pound of green copperas dissolved in a quart of water and poured down a sink drain will iff- ctually de stroy the foulest smells. For water-closets on hoard ships and steam 1 oats, abort hotels and oilier public places, there is nothing so nice to cleanse as simple green copperas. Dissolved under the bed in anything that will hold water it will render a hospital or oilier place for sick free from unpleasant sruelh. For butehor’s stalls, fish markets, slaughter-houses, sink- and wherever there are offensive putrid gases, dissolve copperas and sprinkle it abuii', ami in a few Jays the smell will pa— away. If a car. r.tt, or inoti-o dies about tho house, and sends forth an of fensive gas, place some dissolved copperas in aii op-n ve-sel near the place where the nui sance is, and it will sooo purify the atmos phere.— Contributions for Alabama. Good Gojsi'kl—An affimted editor, who is troubled with hand organs under his win dow, longs for the “evil day” mentioned in E-vlesiast..«, when “the grinders shall cease because they are few, and the sound of the grinding shall be low.” A dissatisfied couple in Cleveland, Ohio, quarrelled the other day, when the husband converted his property into cash, intending to separate altogether and leave the city next day. He deposited $1 500 between the cloth and liuicg of his vest, where his wife found it in the night. She substituted an old alma nac. and the next day they took diffi-rent trains, he going to Toledo in blissful igno rance of his loss, and she to her fiienJs in Indiana, with tho money. A story is related of a young woman in Clinton, Ilk, who, while washing windows, pressed her hand thiough one of them, run ning several pieces of glass into the flesh. A physician extracted all the pieces, as was supposed. But instead of that, the substance penetrated every part of her body, and has been extracted from eyes, head, arms, feet and other members. Up to the 14th inst., over twelve hundred pieces of glass hud boon cut out of her flesh. S x months ago lock-' jiw was afll cted for about six weeks, except' that she could drink between her clenched teeth. At prosent she is a raviug maniac more than half tho time, and in such agony as words will not describe, and too incredible to tell. At intervals she is rational, and able to sit up and do some work. “There is no Virginia.”— So says that cloven footed old devil—T ad Stevens —in his comments on Senator Wilson’s Richmond speech. If radical dofnifiancy is to fast, we say so lie it. Bolter that Virginia should ■ only exist as a bright ornament upon the pages of history, than as an oppressed prov ince of the gotrerfimeht her pons were n aiuly instrumental in founding aud glorify ing.— Ottaiva Sentinel. Meanness,— “Talk about mean men,” said old Fax. “Why, there’s that Bill lohn. son, he’s the meanest man I ever heard tell on. Bill was a constable here. Why don’t you think he had an cxcution against mo for a little matter of groceries, and he came out and levied on my old woman’s ducks, and wanted me to drive ’em up and catch ’em for him, and I told him to catch ’em himself, and so he chased ’em round and round the house, and every time he’d catch a duck he’d sit down and wring its heal off, aud charge mileage." Which i3 the Worst? On the last Fourth of July, tho orator who delivered the customary address to the Hubs ilea said, among other things: “Everywhere is chaos, social anarchy,while our ears are greeted with the roar of some brigand mob, or the cry of some half mur dered man or outraged woman.” The Button Post takes the eloquent gen tleman to task for this flight of fancy, saying “While the orator was denouncing the South for its murders, mobs, uud other out rages, more crimes are committed iu Boston and its vicinity than on any other equal space, probably, in the Union. A young woman was murdered in Purchase street — another in Cambridge street —a tnob occur red in Knoelar and street, and a man was a young man returning to bis home in West R xbury, with his sister, was murdered —a mob in Castle street was fired on by officers, and an attempt was made to rob Trainer’s Hotel; these were among tbe incidents of the Fourth, to say nothing of the lesser outrages, or the design to kill hundreds by placing obstacles upon the Western railroad track.” Having thus brought the reverend gentle man to bock, the Post asks whether any equal portion of the South can present a crimiual record rxceeding the above! An exchange makes the following statement in reference to the prosperity of Savannah: “Savannah has the second rank asacotton port along the whole coast. She has surpassed Mo bile the last season by nine thousand bales in receipts, and has received one hundred thou sand bales more than Charleston. VOL. 2. NO 14 Divorce Laws in Connecticut.— The debate in the Connecticut Legislature on the divorce lawi brings out tho fact during the past year 488 uisolu'ions of the marriage bond occurred in that small State, and that during the previous year there were quite aa many divorces. One lawyer who took part in the debate said he himself procured within tho year three divorces for one woman ! This heats Chicago, and Chicago boats— well, any other place this side of Hades. The. new hill provides for better proof of residence in the State, and for tho hearing of cases in open court, instead of in ohambers r It also provides that the applicant for divorce on the ground of misconduct which affects his or her happiness, must wait one year and think tho matter over, and that no decree of divorce shall take effect until the expiration; of six months from the time it is rendered. It also shuts off for two years an application for divorce when the same has been refused. All the features of the bill have been objec ted to, and, judging from the temper of the debates, we should say that tho land of steady habits is almost ready to adopt the so cial code of tho Oneida C-immunity.— Put. Cos. Courier. For Housekeepers. —The following are a few valuable household hints, which are worth preserving: Save your suds for garden plants ; or for garden yards, when sandy. Wash your teatrays with cold suds, polish with a little llmr and rub with a dry cloth. Frozen potatoes make more starch than fresh ones; they also make nice cake. A hot shovel held over varnished furniture will take out the white spots. A bit of glue dissolved in skiin milk and wator will restore old crape. Ribbons of any kind should he washed in cold soap suds, aud not rinsed. If your flit-irons are rough, rub them with fine salt, and it will make them smooth. Oat straw is the best for filling beds; il should be changed once a year. If you are buying carpet for durability* choose small figures. A hit of soap rubbed on bingos of doors will prevent their creaking. Scotch snuff put in boles where cridkets come out will destroy them. A gallon of ley putin a barrel of bard water will make it as soft as rain water. "What Six Men Say. Butler says the party leaders hung an in nocent woman knowingly, but did it to make political capital. Stevens says the fundamental principle of Heir creed is (o confiscate all tho Southern lands and give them to the negroes. Wilson says the party must so manage that they can depend upon the negroes of tho South, when the white men of the North turn against Radical measures. Phillips says nothing less will Jo than a black man for Vice President. Greeley says bis party leaders are howling Pharisees. Weed says a portion of the leaders are crazy fanatics—the balance, thieves. All of these 9ix are prominent Radical leaders and speak by the card. Nice party * ain’t they ? The Philadelphia Farmer says that equal quantities of alum and salt, mixed and pul verized, will stop tooth-ache—applied as follows: wet a small piece of cotton, so that the powder will adhere, and apply to the hollow of the tooth. The editor says, “if it does not cure, he will forfeit Lis head.” A race horse having been recently killed in South Carolina by lightning the owner said, that there was some consolation in knowing that nothing but a streak of light ning ever caught him. » ■—*■«>■ ?*-♦-* The Louisville Journal says: The cost of all things at this time is remarkably high. That of our Government is enormous. And. we get a very mean article for our money. A negro convicted of felony, was rescued by 200 negroes, from the Sheriff of Nanse mond county at Petersburg a few days since. The police re-arrested the negro the next day, aud lodged him in the Penitentiary. The Western wheat is beginning to come into the market. The Indiauapolis Herald of tho 12th chronicles the arrival of the first of the season. The time for high price* for flour has gone by. The expenses of the Indian 1Y ar, accord ing to estimates made at General Grant a headquarters, are fully one million dollars a week, savs a Washington dispatch to the Boston sklverliser. The same authority savs, in case it is determined to inaugurate a vigorous campaign, expenditures will soou be needed to meet the wants of the increased force of about five millions per week. Thus far, since the trouble began, every Indian killed has cost the government one million dollars aud tho lives of about tsn white meo
