Anoturr horrible mistreatment of
a wife by her husband is reported from
Oglethorpe couaty. About a week
ago a white man named Bill Drake,
had his wife In the field working with
him. She was soon to become a moth
er and could not do much work. Her
brutal husband hurried and abused
her and finally beat her until she gave
birth to a child. It is also said that he
dragged her to the house. We have
heard that the woman is dead, hut ilo
not know this to bo true. Whether she
la dead or not, her husband deserve*
the most direful punishment lor such
abuse as waa calculated lo cause her
death.

[Atltult Constitution.!
Daniel Webster once said of Mass
achusetts,“There she is—look at her!"
and he teemed to stretch up a little
higher as lie indulged in proud thoughts
of (he old bay slate, and just so it
seems to me every Georgian ought to
feel as he considers ottr state. Here
she Is—look at her! When I travel
around and peruse the wonderful
progress she has made since the war.
When I ruminate over the desolation
that covered our land and our people
fifteen years ago. It does look like wo
have been resurrected by magic. The
south is on rising ground everywhere,
but Georgia is in the lead. Alabama
is following close on her heels. Tex
as is looming up like an empire,
Florida is In a regular strut with gol
den fruit in her baskets, and flowers
in her hair, Mississippi is under the
shadow* yet, but will come out in
time. It Is a little dara over there 1
reckon, for a railroad man told me
the ether day he was gettiugoutcross
tb-s dowfi below Memphis, and had
several little law suits with the dar
kies, and they were tried before an
old darkey justice of the peace.
“Well,you lost your case* didn’t
you,” said I. "No,” said he. “I al
ways get a man to bet five dollars with
the magistrate that I wilt lose thecd*#,
and then you seel gain It, and the eld
fellow puts the money in his pocket.
That way is as cheap as hiring a law
yer, and a heap mere certain.” That
is a right good way to get colored jus
tice when ynu can’t get It In any oth
er way. Our magltrates won’t do
that. I’ve known ’em to consider
who was the ablest to pay the cost and
give a Judgment that way, but they

imporlninfe.
One feanon why our people don't go
Into thewei thlnits Is became It takes
two imictt time to start and get under
way and /begin to realise pretits. Our
people wliul to do something quick;
our people don’t plant orchards and
vlueyardh, because It will take sevsral
years tor realise tbo fruit. A mau tohi
mo that/tt took wagon timber four or
five years to get seasoned ami b* lit for
good we>rk—that It ought to be stacked
up and/gat air dried—that steam dried
tlmberl was not ua good as air dried,
and If A man wanted to make first
class vfagons he ought to lay iu Ida
tluihei tour years before he begun to
work It, and keep laying up anew
supply every year. Well.'that’s bad I
know, and so our fine widteoak ana
ash aid hickory D beiug out down
every.year and burned up tn log
heapef. and by and by it will all be
gone and we can’t help It. The mia
fortutoe of our people is waste. Every
thing! is used at the north, and every
thing brings money. It is uot to bad
In .Tennessee as it is In Georgia.
I saw a man sell one walnut tree in
Hhelby county lor lorty dollars, and
he s)oid It ss it stood in the woods,
and it went up north ami came back
to IBs In furniture. I met Mr Thomas
Stovall last week, aud he has been in
Knfghuui ntui France miul Gernmay for
six! years, and he made me feel good
talking about this region and this
good old state. He said with euthusi
astn: “I tell you, my dear sir, I have
traveled a great deal aud seeu many
land# and many people, but Ihis i.i the
best land I ever was in.’>rid we have
the best people. In Eoudofi you live
between palaces and beggars, asd
there l poverty, apd rags, and filth
arid suffering everywhere but here.
Our people are not rich but they are
com tortable. and ought to be content
ed and happy, aud ; they would lie and
they would be if they didn’t look oyer
the fence. That is ail that is the
matter. We look over the- fonce too
mujh, and if our naborg have got bet
ter things than we have we want
em.”
Yes, that’s so—not only so hut also,
as Cobe says, for we only Junker after
what other people have got. hut we
would make them come to a divide If
we could. When a naan gets a little
ahead his nabors want to catch him
him back by the coat tail and pull
plenty of a peg or two. We have
humanity for those who are
worse off than we are, that is, we are
sorry for em and talk a good deal of
sympathy, but if a man gets rich and
swells around, or has a fortune left
him. nobody cares how soon he loses
it. But human nature is mighty kind
after all. Human nature respects
honesty and fair dealing and generos
ity. and loves virtue for its own
sake. Human nature honors woman
and loves children, asd respects old
age, and sympathizes with grief and
misfortune aud most every other ca
lamity except when a rich man loses
bis money. So I know I am in no
danger. Myfiabors will bury me de
cently sriieif I die, aud maybe shed a
few tears and say “well, Bill bad his
faults as well ns we all have, but Bill
was a good-hearted nxan.” Thanks!
