LOVE’S lUtI'A.U.
BT SIB ADMIRAL JEF.
Why do I love my darling sol
Good faith, my heart, I hardly know',
I have such store of reasons ;
’T would take me all a summer day—
Nay, saying half that I could say,
Would fill the circling seasons.
Because her eyes are softly brown,
Or because my love hath flown
To me, as to her haven 1
Because her hair is soft, and laid
In “old time style”—in simple braid,
And jetty as the raven 7
Because hertips are tojtoueli,
Nor chill, nor fiery overmuch,
But softly warm as roses ;
Dear lips that chasten while they move
Lips that a man may daro to love,
Till earthly love-time closes 1
Because her hand is soft and white,
Of touch so tender and so light,
That where her tender finger
Doth fall or move, the man to whom
The guards of Eden whispered “Come !”
Beneath its spell might linger 7
Because her heart is woman soft, .
So true, so tender, that I oft
Do marvel that a treasure
So rich, so rare to me should fall,
Wnose soul desert, so small, so small,-
Is—loving past all measure 7
Because she lias such store of moods,
So archly smiles so staidly broods.
So lovingly caresses;
So that my heart may never tire
of monotono or more desire
Than s’ e, my love, possesses 1
Ah me! what know or what care I 7
Or what has love to do with “why 7
How simple is the season !
I iove her—for she is my love,
And shall while stars dojsliine above,
And season follow season.
Remarkable Detection of a Mur
derer. —A murderer was detected in a
very remarkable manner in Missouri;
recently. At Coldwater, in that State,
■i man named Caldwell murdered Ins
employer (Johnson,) robbed him of sl,-
000, and escaped, leaving no trace be
hind. A few days ago a Dr. llitehie,
living at Phyatala, several miles from
Coldwater, had been drinking freely,
and was in a jocular manner accusing
every one of having committed the
murder. Finally, lie met a stranger,
arid being just tipsy enough not to care
what he said, addressed the stranger iu
the same manner: “Yes—you—you are
the man who murderer Johnson at
Coldwater.” A. look of guilt overspread
the man’s face, and simultaneously lie
ran his hand in his bosom as if to draw
a weapon Dr. Riachio collared him with
his If’t hand ,ai,d with his right drew a dirk
from bis pocket, and told him if he ar
temptepto djraw a weapon
he would, plunge that kniie to
his heart in a second. He then com
manded the man to withdraw his hand,
which was speedily obeyed, when, in
stead of a weapon, lie drew out t lie
sum of #l,lOO, which lie dropped on
the ground at bis feet, Meanwhile a
crowd had gathered around the Doctor
and his prisoner, and the evidence of
the man’s guilt was by this time so
palpable that he was placed under arrest.
The man thus arrested has siucc proved
to be Caldwell, and he has confessed
both the murder and the robbery.

WAYNESBORO’, GA., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1873.
(■ieoi'Kia Law-Makers.
A sudden change in the weather,
amounting to about fifty degrees in
thirty hours, and a small coal-grate, no
larger than a man’s bat, and not of
much more warmth, caused your corres
pondent to change his quarters the oth
er night and establish himself in warmer
quarters.
Returning from Stephens’ speech I
was shown to my room in the third
slory of an imposing .brick building.
It \yas large, with a cheerful fire at one
enj and two beds at the other, A
shprt but black negro, u-nder a plug
bat and wrapped in a heavy colak,stood
before the fire. The servant of some
guest —statesman, who occupies one of
these beds, I thought—an ex-slave who
s till clings to his master.
“Whose room is this ? ’ I asked ©f the
negro.
“Senator Blank stays here, sah.”
“Are you his servant ?”
“No. sah ; I’se a member of the Leg
slatur.”
“Oh, indeed!”
“Yes, sah, and I come up here to
meet the Senator to talk with him
about this here election l that’s’coming
on.J
“The Senatorial election ?”
“Yes, sah; that business is getting
red-hot,” and the legislator laughed a
silvery laugh.
“Is the Senator you spoke of a Re
publican ?”
Yes, sail; we are both from down on
tho coast, where all the Republicans
cotne from that are elected."
“What’s the matter that they are so
few of you in the Legislature ?”
“Well, sab, tho white men have got
the money and the brains, and they
just fixed up the party business to suit
themselves. Our party is about played
out in this Slate. Every election we
get less. A heap of the darkies are get
ting to vote the Democratic ticket as a
reg’lar thing. I know one county down
on the coast where seventeen hut 4red
darkies voted the straight-out Demo
cratic ticket.”
“Why didn't, you work with them ?"
“Oh, I did; I made a heap of speeches
but it ’pears like it did no good. Them
niggers down there- have got a big
Democratic devil in ’em. You bad
just as well talk to stumps. They Lave
soured on our party. A Democrat can
take a bale of cotton and vote a hun
dred.”
I laughed.
“It’s a fact, sah ; a burnin’ and a
shameful fact, as I tell ’em. It’s a dis
gracement to the reason of mankind.
1 tell you I went for them in niv speech
es. But a heap of times they would
only laugh and tell mo to come down
and give ’em a chew of tobacco. Why,
they mighty nigber beat. Col. Whitley
for Congress. Col. Whitney is one of
the greatest men that walks on this
ycre country. Tho fool niggers voted
the Democratic ticket so much that we
only elected our man by fifty votes.
We worked every day and night. I
made fifty speeches. We spent all our
money. Col. Whitney put in the last
oen t—the last cent, sah. Ono day I
wont to his house for rnouey to bring
out the darkies. His wife kept the
money. ‘Wife,’ says he, ‘givo Jim
some money.’ ‘There ain’t but twenty
dollars in the house;’ she says. ‘Give
it to him,’ he says; ‘l'm going to spend
the last cent,’ and he did, but we only
missed being beat miehty little. Next
j time they will set him. I tell you,sail,
some of these days the Democrats will
have every bit of this State under them
sc-lves just as they want it.”
I was about to observe to the des
pondent colored brother that they had
it when the door open and’the
Senator —a tall, spar# whito man
came in. We introduced ourselves and
choosed-bods. “This is Jim, ho said,
turningtoj to the negro. “He's amern
ber, and has como up to help us whip
out the d—d Demorcrats.”
As there are about six Democrats in
tbo Legislature to ono Republican it
looks as though tho wbipping-out pro
cess might be good exercise.
“Jim,” be continued, “do you know
all the colored members ?”
“Yes, sab.”
“Well, you stir round and get tjiern
into the caucus Monday niglft. Wo
must act together. I don't, see how we
can vote for Stephens, Gordon, or Hill.
If the thing gets close we may hold
the balance of power.”
“Yes, sah.”.
“t)o you know what that is ?”
“No, sail.”
“That means if the vote is close be
tween two Democrats we will vote for
one or the mher, and elect him.’
“Yes, sah.”
“Which ono of the three, Jim, can
we swallow the best ?”
“Some says Stephens.”
“No Jim ; I will be d—d if we can
go for Stephens. Do you know Steph
en’s record ?”
“No, sah.”
“Well lie’s an old Democratic sinner.
I’d had just as soon send Jeff. Davis to
the United States Senate as him. I
tell you Jim, our chance is Hill. We
can’t possibly go for Gordon or Steph
ens. You put up the boys on this. Wc
can’t help ourselves inj this fight, and
we must do all we can to hurt the
Democrats. Jim, how did you leave
business at borne ?”
“Pretty fair, sah.”
“Glad to hear it. I tell you, if we
can bother the Democrats it will pay
us to stay here all the spring. The boys
will plant our corn and cotton, and if
they don't it may go to thunder. Our
business is right here to worry the
Democrats. Jim, did you know the
Democrats had ruined this country
once ?’”
“Yes, sah.”
“And they’ll do it again. They
would send the devil to the Seuate if
he could serve. But they can’t get
him, so they will try to send old Alex.
I know Alex, mighty well. Did I ever
tell you Jim, what old Alex, did in the
Secession Convention ?"
“To which sah ?”
•‘The Secession Convention that took
the State out of the Union ?”
“No, soli.”
“Well, they held secret sessions.—
Old Alex, was in there. I gave the
doorkeeper a dollar to let me open the
door half an inch. You can buy a heap
of people for a dollar, Jim, and ad and
sight of them for ten dollars.”
“Yes, sah.”
“Well, as I was saying, Old Alex,
was speaking. Says he: ‘Mr. President,
I am opposed to the policy of seces
sion, but if it has to come, let it be
done before yonder sun siuks in tho
west. I am a Georgian, and I will stand
by Georgia to the bitter end.’ You
see, Jim, he thought more of this one
horse State than lie did of the whole
country. That’s why we can’t vote for
him. No matter what comes, Jim, we
mustn’t allow a single Republican vote
to go for Stepheus.”
‘•No, sah.”
“Wo will throw away our votes on
Akcrman first.”
“Yes, sah.”
“But I think we had better vote for
Hill if we can beat Stephens or Gordon
with him, dou’t you ?”
“Yes, sah.”
“Now, Jim, you may go, but mind
that you don’t talk too much.”
“Yes, sah aud the honarable col
ored member folded his martial clo .k
around him aud withdrew, aud I went
to sleep to dream of strange Georgia
scones. —Cincinnati Comercial

II $2 a year, in advanpe,
Eli Perkins on IrasM rnnce.
I didn’t use to believe much in insur
ance; I once bud my life insured for
four years, and never got any benefit
from it. Then I threw up the policy.
I waited patiently every day to get that
$5,000. I begau to think it was inter
fering with the Lord’s plan —this in
surance to prevent death— so 1 destroy
ed the wicked papers. After examin
ing all the polices, I camo to the con
clusion that honesty was the best poli
cy for me. That didn’t cost much,
then I felt more like holding sweet con
verse with my tailor and shoemaker.
It wasn’t three days after I forked up
my policy before I had my pocket
peked, i then I fell out of a third-story
window on to a picket fence. The
fence was insured, and of course, it
wasn’t hurt. This discouraged me.
I tor.e up my honesty policy, scolded
Mrs. Perkins, and got my life insured
agaiu. Since then I’ve had excellent
health and an increased appetite. I've
gained fourteen pounds. Now Igo for
life insurance. I insure everything;
wife, mother-in-law, horses, chamber
maid, and coach dog.
Mr. Smith, my next door neighbor
don’t believe in insurance. He has no
policy. What is the result? -Why,
his chambermaid fell off the roof where
she was hanging clothes : down, down
six stories into a coal hole. Result:
killed, killed dead. No policy.
Yesterday my horse ran away. He
wanted to kick every thing to pieces.
Smith screamed, but says I, “It’s all
right, Smith. Horse is insured, let ’im
kick. So’s the wagon and myself too.”
He kicked. Result: Smith got kicked
clear-over the wheels into a crockery
store. No policy. Horse came in all
right and I didn’t have even my placid
shirt bosom ruffled. Insure ia the Mu
tual. Don’t wait. Delays are danger
ous. Now I walk up and dowu the
stable by kicking horses, boldly and fear
lessly. They can’t hurt me; I’m insu
red.
Yesterday two men hitched tandem,
ran off with a horse who was driving a
dog cart. They collided with a lumbe,
horse and a one-horse market woman
smashing a conductor drawn by a street
car and twenty-four passengers loaded
down with horses holding to the straps.
Every street car and dog cart not insu
red were instantly killed. The axle-tree
of the uninsured men was broken, while
an insured man received only a slight
scratch on his dashboard, and grazed
one of his wheels. Insured.
Many other accidents proved to me
the power of insurance to prevent death
or damage to character.
A small pox was violently attacked
by a woman,and the whole family,broke
out; crying. Didn’t insure.
A man had a difficulty with his wife,
ud in a moment of rage tore up her
policy. She lingered along five day,
and then died—dyed her hair. Have
you a policy ? Do not hesitate, but
insure at once in the Log Cabin Mutual
The latest verdict recorded was upon
a gentleman who expired in a fit of ine
briation. The jury returned, Death
from ranging around a rum shop.”
This was savage, and devoid of regard
for the gentlemau’s family. In a sim
ilar ease in California the verdict was
more gracefully and considerately put
Accidental death while unpacking glass.
Mrs. Snidkius says her husband is a
three-handed man—right hand, left
haud, and a little behind-liand.

THE IIOEH.OF DEATH.
Death in a natural way, comes to
more persons in the neighborhood of
five o’clock in tho morning than any
other of the twenty-four; tho fewest
about tho hour of one in the afternoon.
In the early morning the world is still,
the atmosphere heavy with the damps of
the night, and the body debilitated, of
ten, with the long fast from supper
time, with uothing to rouso the spirits
or the circulation. At about one o’clock
in the aftcroon the air is most generally
fully .dried by tho sun, has more life,
more oxygen in it, hence it is more pu
rifying. more invigorating, while the
bright daylight itself has an elevating,
vitalizing tendency. These facts should
bo borne in miud by thoso who are
nurses to the sick ; for by extra atten
tion of various kinds the critical hour
might pass, and, if so, the patient is
more liable to live over for another
twenty-four hours. It is said by ob
servent physicians that each seventh
year of life is critical; which means
that every seventh year is liable to be
fatal, but that, if passed over with im
proved health it gives a reasonably cer
tain lease of another seven years; for
example, the most of those who become
consumptive do so about the age of
twenty-one —a year sooner or later,
but twenty-oue is the largest average
when the disease becomes deoided.
About forty-two, the six-times-seven, is
by far the most critical time of life in
women. If that is passed healthfully
they have a g?od chance of seeing
three-score. It will perhaps he found
that a large number of persons die
within a year or two including sixty
three than at any other specified time
between forty-nine and seventy. Those
things suggest that increased attention
should be given to the health at these
critical pei^ods.

A Lesson in Naturae and Legisla
tive History.— The New York Sun
thus happily hits off the new species of
Legislative pol disc overed under the
microscope of recent Congressional
Committees:
Naturalists tell of a very interesting
polyp found in fresh water ponds, which
has tentacles but no great consistency
and can be turned iusidc out with cut
injury and with apparently only slight
temporary inconvenience in adjusting
itself to its new relations. Whether
the lately discovered Congressional
polyp, which likewise is blessed with
tentacles but has little consistency, will
survive the experiment of being turned
inside out, is as yet a problem. It is,
it must be confessed, a cruel test; but
think what great results may accrue to
science from it. In tho experiments
upon the fresh water polyp tho great
naturalist Trcmblcy first fed the subjoct
and the proooss of inversion accompain
ed the disgorgement. Mr. Oakes Ames,
administered food to the Congressional
polyp, .and Mr. Luke P. Poland, with
other scientists, is performing the rest
of the experiment.
