O. O. GORMAN & K. A. HOLMES, Proprietors. VOL. IV. TALBOTTON STANDARD. WEDNEBDA \ MORNING. MAY 7, 1873. Hew a Man ami his Wife put up a Stove. Prom the Danbury News.] Patting up a stove is not so difficult in itself. It is the pipe that raises four tifths of the mischief and all the dust. You may take down the stove with all the care in the world, and hnve your wife put away the pipe in a secure placo, and yet that pipe won't come together again as it was before You find this out when you are standing on a chair with your arms full of pipe and your mouth full of soot. Your wife is stand ing on the floor in a positiou that ena bles her to see you, the pipe and the chair; ana here she gives utterance to those remarks that are calculated to hasten a man into the extremes of in sanity. Her dress is pinned over her waist, and hoi hands rest on her hips. She has got one of your hats on her head, and your linen coat on her back, and a pair of your rubbers on her feet. There is about five cents’ worth of pot black ou her nose, and a lot of flour on her chin, and altogether she is a spec tacle that would inspire a dead man with distrust. And while you are up there trying to circumvent the awful contrariness of the pipe, and tell that you know some fool lias been mix ing it, she atands safely on the floor and bombards you with such domestic mot toes as; "What’s the use of swearing so ?” “You know no one has touched that pipe.’* “You ain't got any more patience'than a child.’’ “Do be careful of that chair.'’ And then she goes oft', and re-appears witli an armful more of : pipe, and before you are aware of it she has got that pipe so horribly mixed up j that it does seem no two pieces are alike. | You join ends, and work them to and fro, and take them apart again and look i at them. Then you spread one out and I jam the other together,and mount them J once more. But it is no go. You be- i gin to think the pieces are inspired with , life and ache to kick them through the i window. But she doesn’t lose her pa- 1 tienoSL She goes round with that aw- i fully exasperating rigging on, with a length of pipe under each arm, and a long-handled broom in her hand, and says she don't see how i is some people never have any trouble in put ting up a stove. Then you miss the hammer. You don’t see it anywhere. You stare into the pipe and along the mantle, and down on the stove, and off to the floor. Your wife watches you in tently, and is finally thoughtful enough to inquire what you are looking after, and on learning, pulls the article from her pocket Then you feel as if you could go out doors and swear a hole twelve feet square through a block of brick buildings, but she merely observes, “Why on earth don’t you speak when you want anything, and not stare around like a" dummy ?” When that part of the pipe which goes through the wall is up, she keeps it up with her broom while you are making the the connection, and stares at it with an in tensity that is entirely uncalled for. All the while your position is becoming more Interesting. The pipe don’t go together, of course. The soot shakes down into your eyes and mouth, the sweat rolls down your face and tickles your chin as it drops off, and it seems as if your arms are slowly but surely drawing out of t ieir sockets. Here your wife comes to the rescue by inquiring if you are going to be all day doing no thing, and if you think her arms are made of cast iron; and then the broom slips off the pipe, and in her endeavor to recover her hold she jobs you under the chin with the handle,.and the pipe comes down on your head with its load of fried soot, and then the chair tilts for ward enough to discharge your feet, and you come down on the wrong end of that chair-with a force that would bank rupt a pile-driver. You don’t touch that stove again. Yon leave your wife examining the chair and bemoaning its injuries, and go into the kitchen and wash your skinned and bleeding hands with yellow soap Then you go down the street after a man to do the business and your wife goes over to the neigh bors with her chair and tells them about its injuries, and drains the neighbor hood-dry of its sympathy long before you get hqppe. The forthcoming number of the Edin burgh Review will contain a memior of the late Gen. Robert E. Lee, from orig inal and other materials, collated by an English writer already known from his studies of the campaigns in Virginia. Traveling Thoughts. —Dr. Hall says: Eat regularly three times a day, and never between meals. Take with you one-third more money than jvu calculate on spending. Take small bills rather than large, to avoid having bad money passed on you in exchange. Aim to be at your place of starting at least ten minutes before the time, and grow merry and wise at the contempla tion of the spntterings and mishaps of those who come in at the last minute, and half minute later. See that your baggage is on the con veyance before you are yourself. , Remember that you make your char acter as you go along, by the quiet courtesy of your manners. Only boors are boisterous. Do not let the servant excel you in patience and politeness. “Please” should commence every re quest and “thanks” end every service done. A lady is always gentle, a gentleman always composed. Never argue on any subject if there more than one present besides yourself. Never fail to set that person down as ignorant or low-bred who, by word, or look, or gesture, desparages a woman, a clergyman, the Bible, or the .Sabbath day. The loss of the Atlantic adds another to the list of instances of doubt as to the safety of iron vessels when sailing by compass. Tlio first iron steamship ever made in England was wrecked in the channel, and an investigation show ed that her loss was attributed solely to the deflection of the compass caused by the attraction of the iron in her sides. 7'heeo mpnss of an iron vessel requires special adjustment to overcome this at traction, but science has not been able to conquer nature so completely that there is perfect safety yet. A New York scien tist is of the opinion that the Atlantic was lost because of her change of course, when Capt. Williams decided to run for Halifax, was a matter not taken into account in the adjustment, of jiis com pass, and he shows that a sweve of a quarter of a point in the needle was suf ficient for u deviation of fifteen miles, which is more than the extent of the miscalculation which led to the disaster. ♦ The ( liieat Wall in China.—Govern or Seward, speaking of the great wall of China, which he examined during his late trip to the east says: The Chinese have been for at least twtror throe thousand years a wall-ma king people. It would bankrupt New York or Paris to build up the walls of Perkin. The great wall of China is the wall of the world. It is forty feet high. Vhe lower thirty is of hewn limestone nd granate. 71io modern carriages may pass each other on the summit. It has a parapet the entire length, with convenient staircases, burtress and garrison houses at every quarter of a mile, and it runs not by cutting down hills, and raising valleys, but over the uneven crests of the mountains and through their gorges a distance of a thousand miles. Admiral Rogers and I calculated that it would cost more now to build the great wall of China, through its extent of one thousand miles, than it cost to build the fifty-five thousand miles of railroads in the United States. What a commentary it is upon the eph emeral range of the human intellect to see this great utilitarian enterprise, so necessary and effective a thousand years ago, now not merely useless but an incumbrance and an obstruction. The death of General Canby reduces the list of brigadier-generals on the ar my register from seven to the limit of six established by a recent act of Con gress, ami hence there is no vacancy created. At a meeting of the board of directors of the Georgia Western Railroad, a res olution was offered that the City Coun cil of Atlanta be requested to submit the question of increasing the city sub scription to Georgia Western Railroad to $1,000,000 to the people, with the un derstanding that the amount be raised by additional taxation, and that each tax-payer be entitled and shall receive certificates of stock for the amount of tax paid by him for this purpose. Maj. Wallace offered his resignation, but af terward withdrew it. The Governor of Arkansas has made proclamation of the adoption of the con i stitutional amendment, doing away with disfranchisement. This gives the State j to the control of the Democracy. “ WHAT IS IT BUT A MAP OP BUSY LIFE, ITS FLUCTUATIONS AND ITS VAST CONCERNS.” TALBOTTON, GA., WEDNESDAY MAY 7, 1873. The last sensational rumor in the matrimonial line, is that James Gordon Bennett is to be married to a princess of Denmark. Dennett has been, we be lieve, very steady in his habits and has shown himself quite a business man, since bis father died. The first brick houses erected in Phil adelphia by Penn and his followers were built of imported bricks, and now that the city is getting back to the old sys tem. A peculiar yellow or buff brick, imported from Liverpool, is growing in favor rapidly in the Quaker city, and can be laid down there cheaper than fine pressed Philadelphia brick. Enoijsu Emigrants. —About forty En glish emigrants, says the Knoxville Press and Herald of Friday, passed down the East Teunessoe, Virginia and Georgia Railroad yesterday. Some of these are on their way # to Oakdale Iron Works in Roane county, and others were going to the works in the neighbor hood of Rome, Ga. V The Emperors of Germany and Rus sia are determined to take the lead in providing military music for the Vienna exhibition at their own private expense. A Prussian baud of the the Guards and a Russian band of the Guards, each composi dof a hundred men,will add to the musical delights of the exhibition by their performances. ► ♦ ◄ Diamonds to the value of ten million dollars were exported from Cape Colo ny last year,and the source of supply be ing almost inexhaustible, fine gems may for many years be expected from that country. New gold diggings are also being constantly discovered, and the fields newly discovered at Mar abastad, in the South African Republic, are filled with miners. 7he Atlanta Herald calls the follow ing “a big thing :” “The Air-Line rail road will be completed very soon, and its connections closed all through to New Y r ork. It is rumored that an ex tensive combination has been formed to leaje or buy up the whole lino through from New York to Montgomery and thence to New Orleans, and thus have control of freights along the way, and especially ot the cotton crop. Railroad Decision.— The Supreme Court of Illinois lias just rendered a de cision which is of importance to the pub lic, as confirming the principle that rail road corporations may not make con tracts between themselves that are de trimental to the public interests, and that contracts which impair their duties as common carriers are void as to the public, oven though they may be en forced as between the two contracting parties. Another Feeder to the Gulp Road.— Monticello, Florida, is vigorously stir ring the question of the railroad from that town to Thomasville. A commit tee of citizens nas been appointed to at tend the general Commercial Conven tion invited by Governor Smith at At lanta next month, and also a committee to visit Thomasville and urge upon the citizens there the importance of the en terprise. Heartless Retort. —A smart young lady, at a social gathering in this city a few evenings ince, quoted the motto of the temperance girl: “The lips that touch wine shall never touch mine; ” to which a beardless wretch replied: “Girls that paint should never faint, because, you know, they don’t look pretty after some officious old lady has thrown wa ter into their faces, and it has made little gutters along their cheeks.” That bit of snyirtness sealed the young man’s fate. ’ He won’t attend the next social. Th e Marble Room. —‘The Marble Room’ is the popular name given to the cash-room of the Treasurer building in Washington, and it is one of the most beautiful rooms in the world. The floors, walls, counters, and even the clock, are made of marble. The princi pal kinds of marble from the two con tinents are here presented—eight different varieties—so combined as to form a harmony of subdued colors most pleasing to the eye. Some of the marble was cut in Italy and some in New York, and the American workmanship is as perfect as the European. The Marble Room, which is about 70 ft. long and 30 wide, is 32 ft. high, running up through two stories of the building. Half way up the walls a balcony runs around the whole room, with marble floor and bronze railing. The railinp is a beauti ful work of art For over FORTY YEARS this ” PURELY VEGETABLE LIVER MEDICINE Has proven to be the Great Unfailing Specific. for Liver Complaint and its painful offspring.
