THE EXPOSITOR WAYNESEOBO’, GkA.., HiHCMHiON l'Rli'B—ll ADVAMK: Two Dollars per Annum. 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. ]' i: i *j. mi imi All the Summer!

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.
