Wk send this issue out with the hope that the friends of Temperance mtn whose hands it may chance to fall, will feel themselves called upon to do some thing to help us on and to help on Good Teiuplarism by extending its field of benefieient intluenees. Will yon, dear reader, do something? If you are too “poor in pocket” to pay for a copy of the Pkopik’s Friend yourself can't you get some one else to take a copy? We are doing all we can for temper ance and all we ask of you is to help us two dollars worth. If you are not a G »»d Templar that much you are not j much of a Good Templar. AVe meant i no chiids-play when we started the ! Peoples Friend; we started it for a I r: gular temperance paper, not for one or two weeks or a montn, but to be published so long - as a subscriber could hi found or until our cartlily labors mil have ceased. AVe have published ■vo’ - ;: nnpers in this State and Ala bama and no subscribei - has yet failed ret - / - Ae his paper lor the time for . Li'.-li he had paid and you need not fa- ueasy aoout making such a large (two dollars) deposit with us, for we ; arc not going to run off, secede or do i any tiling of that sort. ; AVe trust you will arouse yourselves : t > a true sense of your duty and not I dr’av to perform it. * _ Marietta.

Atkinson, Grand Lecturer. The Grand Lecturer, Bro. W. I). Atkin son, has visited us, lectured lor us. and at every point in this part of Georgia, He did lii.s duty faithfully. loan exposition of the evils of drunkenness, he presented an array of facts and arguments which seemed to us unanswerable and irresistible. But, in this part of Georgia, “Ephraim is joined to his idols;” ami, though the Grand Lecturer or any one else may ‘•Convince lln-in againbt their w.il, The)’re of the rame opinion still.” Most us the people her - .*, in the church and out. of it, believe whiskey will keep off chills and fever, will make pale face personshave rosy cheeks and red noses, will lengthen out old people s lives a score ol years or more, will cause lean, weazel-looking per sons to get tat and plump, and becumc good looking, is a panacea for typhoid fe ver, pneumonia, etc., and is the great life and health supporter in any malarious country. And, let the Grand Lecturer or any one else attempt to expose th*! delusion and he will hear quoted against him some eminent M. D. DIED. Brother Lawrence Mims, of Augusta, Ga., died at home last week. He was a Good Templar and an earnest worker in the cause. He was htined by his lodge, among whom his memory will long be cher ished. Fashion Notes. THE WAY THE <HBL OF THE PERIOD WILL LOOK IN HER bl KING CLOTHES. Mrs. Mary E. Burnham, the New York correspondent of the St. Louis Repub lican, who is the handiest woman with her pen we know of in the profession, sends that paper the following in a late letter. Little, heavy chunky-handled umbrellas will he carried instead of parasols, oxidized silver will be stuck on in all places; Ham burg and costlier embroideries will supercede ruffies and puffs on all white dresses and underwear. Gloves with six buttons and crowd the importer’s counters. I there fore unhesitatingly predict they will, in time push aside such minor items as sleeves, and waists. We shall require very little uioiu than a pair of kid gloves and a train ed skirt to clothe us comfortably. Then a languid n efface is to be fash ionable, and the eyes will he worn very much closed. This, with the high comb ail on the bias, and the hair arranged a la scramble, has an after dinner effect perfect ly indescribable, but rather nice, and class ed, in mj - mind, among such adventurous spirit as Columbus and De Soto, will ever remain the nameless heroine who wore a chip hat Inst Sunday, together with a paie gray silk and rose-eotoicd ribbons. I clung to a friendly hydrant for support. Thought I. what have the March winds sent us now In she came, in a “sit up Sarah Ann anu show your breast pin” style. Ihe g;:y -ilk ba’.kxH.inir out. the white chip hat blaring a climbing rose with tendril enough to go over a front door. The wind had the whole graniture stii and straight in the air above her, the Dolman sleeve* were tike two immense wings on each side of her, ml numberless buds of rose color tin.abed the ffy awaj- picture. Kissing the Bride. A stalwart young rustic, win was known as a formidable operator in a “ free fight,” had just married a blooming and beautiful country girl only eighteen years of age, and the twain were at a party where a number of young folks of’ bo(h sexes were enjoying themselves in the good, old-fashioned pawn paying style. Every girl in the room had been called out. and kissed, except Mrs B , the beautfui young bride aforesaid; and although there was Dot a jovrge.-ter pusent who was not “dying” to taste her lips, they were restrained by the prcseTce of her herculean husband, who stood regarding the party with a look of sullen dissatisfaction. They mistook the cause of his anger, however, for suddenly rolling up hi? sleeves, he stepped into the middle of the room, and in a tone of voice that at once secured marked attention, said. “ Gentemen, I have been noticing how things have been working here for some length of time and I ain’t, half satisfied. I don t want to raise a fuss; hut—” “ What’s the matter, John ?” inquired half dozen voie s. “ What do you mean ? Have we done anything to hurt your feelings?” Yes, you have, all of you have hurt my feelings, and I've got just this to say about it: here’s every - gal in the room been kissed mighty nigh a dozen times apiec’ and there’s my wife, who I consider as likely as any of ’em, has not had a single one to night, and I just tell you now, if she don’ t get as many kisses the balance us the time as any gal in the room, the man that slights her has got me to fight—that’ s all. Now go ahead with your plays!” Egyptian Fetes and Fashion. The fashion gossip of Paris and Cairo clusters about the trousseaux and enter tainments given to the three brides of the latter city who are the fortunate recipient.-, of the Khedive's regal munificence. Mill ions have been lavished upon them, and the ceremonies in their honor are still in progress. The cities of Cairo and Alexan dria are nightly illuminated in a manner marvellous in the eyes of the Europeans, and an incredible time has been devoted to the Jdecoration of a single house, covered all over with light wooden lattice wo-ik, in which small glass vases are fastened to con tain lights. To this is added a profusion of flowers, both natural and artificial, mak ing a most brilliant and glittering show. The great sensation, however, is the splen dor of the bridal rodes, the trousseau of the finance of the crown Prince costing the ' the sum of seven million including jewels. The gifts were recently made the ' occasion Ibr a grand procession through the principal streets of Cairo, leading to the Kaser-Ali Palace, The great coffers of golden cloths jewels, silver plate, etc., ornamented with gems, were carried by Egyptian soldiers, the boxes being covered with illusion veils wrought in gold. Four balls and three concerts were to be given at the Court, and four thousand invita tions issued for the first one, which took place at Ghizehr Palace, the residence of the Empress Eugenie during her recent visit. The Court balls are, of course in tended for the and noble, but the poor have also festivities of their own. Public tables are kept constantly furnished in front of the palaces, where the populaoe find food, clothing and necessaries of every descrip tion, An elegant miniature, where theater has been set up for the harem, pres tidigitateurs and mountebanks perform constantly before the favorites of His Highness. All these fetes have the at traction of novelty and originality for Eu ropeans, and travel in that direction has been quite lively. street Attire. From the Washington Society Journal. ] Ah this is the month w hen ladies be gin to prepare their spring costumes, we desire to utter a word of warning in regard to the colors worn or pur- | chased for the street. Every season i the advance notes are the same; some < decided and high color is declared to have taken the place of the grave 1 browr.s, and grays and blacks of the previous season for street attire. Now, this is all felse in fact ami per nicious in theort - . The laws of goul taste ordain grave colors for street at tire, whatever may be the fashion for i colors in the house; and the mistake i that foreigners not uafrequently make in regard to the character of American ! ladies is not due to their deportment half so much as to the striking charac ter of their street costumes. It is an unfortunate fact tli.it certain “ladi s” of the “half-wor'd ’ as some me translates demi-monde, and th* words have a quaint expressiveness are so very grand in their style and dignified in th< ir w alk, that one is daggered (nnles* a long time a deni i uof this city into umvrtainty as to where to place them.

Said a tipsy husband to his wife. ‘’ You need —necd’t bl—lame me! ’Twas woman that first tempted man to cat foibe’den things.” Woman may have tempted man to eat forbidden things,” said the wife, “but he took to drinking of his own ac cord.” I Massachusetts paper asks us to bc i lieve that it costs a couple from that State i SBO a day to board at a Uashington hotel ■ during the inauguration festivities, i.be . : incredible part of the story is not that, a I Washington hotel should ask such a price ■ but that any c.ncfrom Massaclmseils shou d j pay it. ! A shark eleven feet in length was recent ily presented to the Dundee Museum, Ou 1 being opened, for the purpose of stuffing, iit was found to contain T he remains ot a va.- i riety of fish, a woman s bonnet, and a soda i water bottle, in wnich was a note convey- I ing some interesting intelligence in a lady s ! hand-writing. I Jefferson’s advice to his daughters was i to avoid breaking with disagreeable people ias long as they could with honor. Sacri ' flees and suppressions of feeling for such i an object, he thought, cost much less pain i than in open separation. The effort of self control was scon forgotten, but an open 1 breach haunts the peace every day. - A Chinaman was summoned as a witness * in New York, the other day, and, to ascer- * tain his views on the nature of an oath, the judge asked him what would be his punishment if he should swear to lies. I shall nevar return to China, but always re main in New York,” was the reply, and he was at once sworn. A Western newspaper gives a thrilling j account of a steamer’s perilous voyage de- J scribing particularly her dangerous passage ' over the falls, with only “one inch of wa- ■ ter betwern her keel and the the rocks, and ' half an inch of atmosphere between her chimneys and the bridge. ” George Sand has been writing of Louis | Napoleon, and calls him neither a monster I nor an idiot. The monsters and the idiots j will rejoice at this determination. She says I moreover that as he was sincere and gen erous. This latter expression was proba bly designed as a well-veiled sarcasm, or else as George Sand's idea of these qual i ities. A particular kind of punishment used in Missouri State prison is known as the penal ring. It consists in plaeing the con vict, strapped, in such away as to compel . him to sit with his leirs flat on the floor; i i Lun lijt I'auJd uro tied together and drawn toward his feet, the effeot being a tremen i dous strain on the muscles of his legs and back. Bones are now being dug up in the an cient tombs in Egypt, and sent to England for monure. It is, therefore, not improba ble that the bones of Pharaoh may enrich the ho.> gardens of Kent, thur almost re* aliz.ing Shakespeare's lines, when he wrote ! thnt “Caesar died and turned to clay, might stop a hole to keep the wind away.” Slighly sarcastic was the cleigyman who passed and addressed a man coming ifito i church after the sermo had begun with the remark. “Glad to see you, sir; come in. Always glad to see those here late whoc n't come early.” And decidedly self-possess ed was the man thus addressed in the pres ence of an a?tonished congregation as he respond. “Thank you; would you favor me with the text?” An Omaha policeman was awakened by a rat nibbling at his ear, and when he saw i the immense and hungry creature glaring at him he became paraiized with fear, of which the rat took instant advantage by springing upon his vissago and seizing his nose. He was choked and thrown violent ly against the side of the room, and instant I ly disappeared, but returned in about twen ty minutes to renew his meal. He was again driven to his hule, and a powerful trap placed in position, but as yet has de clared no dividends. I ‘"That’s my impression’’ as the printer said when he kissed his j sweetheart.

Moseley comes out, in the People’s Friend, fair and square for woman’s suffrage. And that is not ail. It is rumored that the G. AV. U. T. aidsand abets my lady, and is seriously debating the question, him self, as to whether ’tis better keep them in subjection any longer or let ’em rip. Ail we have io say is—-po i’n. AVe’ll join you m time to reap our share of the glory. There ar several other fellows in town whose wives ought to do the voting. It is but proper to state that the G. Vv. S. withholds Ins opinion for the present.— Rome < fomnu.rc.ial. A’ e object to the caption under which our neighbor—the Commercial, has chosen to air his wit and criti cism. AVe hope that no “war,” not even c f words, will be necessary, in or der to induce our fathers, husbands, and brothers to yield us that justice which they so cheerfully grant the ne gro, and which they themselves can not deny, is the ioaha ocibte right of every citizen. Yes, we are “fair and square” for woman suffrpge, and we are proud to belong to a party, whose originator was Queen Aicioria, (the best mon arch England lias ever known,) which numbers among its advocates such names as Gladstone, Empress Eugen ia, Disraeli, Emily Faithful, Horace Greeley, Airs. Howe. Beacher, AVilson, our who has in every public speech, for twenty years, never failed to speak for the. cause of wo man.—Airs. Stoe, Airs. Browning, Brick Pomeroy, and a host of others, whom we have not space to mention, besides our G. AV. C. T. whom the Commercial informs us, “aids and abets” the cause which no true man can oppose! It is no compliment to Amer ican manhood to speak of America’s daughters, as of a conquered nation, or a set of slaves, to speak of woman as “in subjection,” and yet this is the language employed in reference to them by our qa/Zan? neighbor the Com mercial, or at least we suppose he has reference to women, although the pro noun “them” “refers more directly to the G. AV. C. T. and ourselves, as writ in our neighbors polished context. AVe are under many obligations for the kindly “permission” to advocate tho right, vr as our friend elegantly ex presses it, to “go in,” and we are still more gratified to learn that “We’lJ join you in time to reap our share of the glory.” We hope that will be soon, for there will be very little “glory” for those to reap, who come up after tho victory is won, though much efficient service might be done, by the tailent and power of our neighbor just now. AVe are astonished at the candor of our cotempdrary when he asserts that “there are several other fellows,” be sides himself and his partner (as our readers will see by reference to hi» context) “whose wives ought to do tho voting.” This is candid and promis es much, for when men are convinced that their “wives ought to do the vo ting” for the family, surely they wilfi be willing to let them do what the constitution says they have a right to do, viz: Represent themselves in ihe Government. An .1 this they ought to do, for we have very little hope of the laws being 1 intelligently and benificently rendered towards woman, much less, of those laws being made better, when our “great men” and “intelligent editors'" are n>t conversant with the ordinary rules of English grammar. The vol 1 ' of icoman in the secular gov ernment, WOULD ABOLISH LIQ UOR LICENSE, and though “our G. AV. S. withholds his opinion” upon this subject; yet if he be trur to the Or der, we know it already, for he has sworn to “do ui’ in his power to banish, intemjjeranve."—Rome Bulletin.
