HiHCMHiON l'Rli'B—ll ADVAMK:

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1872.
BEAR AIVI) I’OHBEAB.
Be cnrefnl, y whoso wedded hearts
Are lovingly united ;
Bo heedful lest an enemy
Steal on you uninvited!
A little wily serpent form,
With graceful, luring poses;*
Or, coming in a different guise,
A thorn among the roses!
Be careful, ye whose marriage bells
Now merrily are ringing;
Be heedful of the litter word ;
The answer keen and stiugiug,
The sharp retort, the angry eye,
Its vivid lightning flashing;
The rock on which so many hopes
Are daily, hourly dashing !
“Bear and forbear;” the only way
To tread life’s paths together,
Then come and welcome, shining sun,
Or come dark, dondy weather -
Two loving hearts dissolml in one,
That wu vot live asunder,
Have put Love’s golden armor on—
Oh, v orfltnook on and wonder!
An Artftt, Monkey. —A monkey
was lately complained of before a Lou
don police court, by a gentleman on the
grouud that the animal had slipped its
chain and pursued the applicant’s wife
with such persistency that she had to
jump a fence to avoid it. The applicant
was rcfgrrccUo a. eifil court for satisfac
tion against, not the monkey, but the
monkey’s owner. The London Tele
graph, noticing the circumstance, states
that the njonkey was “large-sized, old,
aud artful!’
Consolidation ok ms Macon Wes
tern wni ttte Central Railroad
Companv. —The bill to authorize and
provide for the union and consolidation
of the Macon anil ,Western Railroad
Company with the Central Railroad
and Baukiiag Oompkaj, under tho naffie
and charter of the latter Company, was
passed by both houses of the Legisla
ture, aud has been signed by the Gov
ernor. The consolidation of the two
. companies was agreed to sotac timq ago
by tho stockholders in the Macoa and
Western Company, but as a consider
able perjod has elapsed since then, it
has been thought best, I understand, to
submit again to a vote of the parties in
interest. This course will be adopted,
to the end that there may be no ground
for reasonable complaint. —Sav News.
In discussing the recont exposure of
frauds and robberies by the Bullock
gang, tiie New York tribune of the
22d thus compliments the labors of the
Legislative Investigating Committee;
The eighth commandment was never
more systematically* and universally
disregarded than in the management
of the Georgia State railroad under
the administration of Ilufus B. Bul
lock. Truth is stranger than fiction—
but the evidence takcu by the Legisla
tive Committee furnishes a catalogue
of crimes and ctiminals which taxes
human credulity. There is uothiug in
the anuals of Brio to compare with the
record made by Bidlcmk, the two Ivim
balfs arid the two Blodgetts, the most
prominent of this long list of scoun-i
drelß. For a campaign document the
villainy of carpet-bag government, no
thing could be more effective thau the
262 pages of sworn testimony taken
by the Committee of the Georgia Legis
lature. \Vc should be glad to see this
document thoroughly circulated in the
Northern States. ‘ '
The report that Generl Gideon J.
Pillow, of Tennessee, has declared for
Grant, aud that ho also has a large
clrim against the government for mules
taken during the war, has brought up
once more the old story about his hav
ing built breastworks and dug a ditch
to defend them, placing the ditch on the
wrong side, while in Mexico. A writer
in the Richmond Enquirer , who says ho
was at Camargo when the ditch was dug,
undertakes to vindicate the truth of
history by giving a correct account of
that famous engineering exploit. He
says the ditch was not dug as auy part
of a warlike work, but simply cut around
the yard in which the mules and horses
belonging to Pillow’s command were
kept to protect the animals from Mexi
can horse thieves. The dirt from this
was thrown up on the outside, forming
a high embankment, and the whole pur
pose of the work was to prevent the
thieves from jumping the horses over it.
The embankment obviated the neces
sity of making thCdiMh either very
deep or very wide. If General Pillow
had taker tpc precaution* to protest his
mules in fifth * same ifmhrter,
perhaps he might not have had any claim
against the government, nor felt the ne
cessity of “coming out'’ for Grant.

“The Expositor”
For the Campaign!
The approaching Campaign will doubtless be one of
the most interesting and exciting that has occurred within
the present century; and we oiler The Expositor for a
sum almost nominal, that every citizen of Burke, at least,
may be fully informed of its progress and developments.
From now until the first of December we will furnish it
to subscribers for Fifty Cents in Advance ; and we trust
that in this way it will reach every reader in the county.
Tiie Expositor will contain full and accurate Crop Re
ports, Prices Current, Foreign and Domestic New r s, and
every Political Item of interest from Maine to California,
with extracts from all the leading Newspapers in the
United States, and Synopses of important Speeches by
the most able and eloquent Orators and Statesmen in
the country. We appeal to our people to patronize and
sustain their COUNTY PAPER. In doing so they not
only enable us to live, but add to the character and polit
ical importance of the county itself. Almost the first
question an intelligent stranger asks is: “Is there a
newspaper published in your county V and in an age
like this it would surely be humiliating to answer, “No!”
Every honest man is authorized to act as our agent;
and upon receipt of subscription price, the. paper will be
promptly forwarded. Address, JAS. E. FROST,
