Proprietors, Atlanta, Ga. For sale by Wilkins A Cos. jan!B-ly OFFICE OF T Tiif Confederate Monument’l A.of Ga > Augusta, Ga., January 4th, 1873. ) WE are aware that a .second postpone ment of the distribution of the shares of the Confederate Monumental Association of Georgia will dissatisfy some of the ticket holders. Providence has inflicted upon al most eveiy section of our* country, for the last month, the severest weather that has been known for many years. The highways of travel in many sections have been stop ped. Communications between neighbor hoods have been interrup’ed. People have been compelled to keep close at their homes. One Agent writes: ‘-The itostponemen is so short that owing to the bad weather it will be impossible for me to a : d you as I expected.” A State Agent informs us that “the contribution fiotu his State will he cut, down to a small amount by the inclem ent weather, aud the shortness of time. I 'j One Agent stated to us in person that, there ! was many who wished to subscribe—that he had not been able to see in consequence of the extreme bitternss of the weather. Another Agent declined to act longer, as the time was too short to obtain tl e desired results in his State. We might quote ftoin other letters to show that complaint has been made; that we sought expedite the drawing by inadequate time. We frankly confess that we desired to close the effort we have berm making. The object sought is a grateful one. We have been influenced to hold or. by our desire to honor the mem ory of personal relatives and friends, as well as their lost and devoted comrades. We j use the occasion to add that we have in no ! small degree been influenced to continue , our efforts to protect the credit of our State : and section. We look to a quenchless vestal j lire, without which, their can he no sou!, no j true greatness, no noble sentiment in com munities or nations. We ; re Agents to guard this great and most sacred enterprise. We ask the ticket holders to give us their confidence. ' v e ask them to rely upon our judgments for another brief period. We know better than ; they do the necessity for a little more time, j If any one shall say this additional postpone-1 meat violates our pledge, all that we have to say is, the South is not yet so represented as to appear creditably before the country atid the world. When we honestly tell you that, will you not rather thank than con demn us for the delay. In addition to the difficulties already referred to, we may properly add that for week* past the ex citement of canvassing for county offices, some of which are lucrative, iiave directed attention from this effort to do garateful and patriotic work. These elections are over. These excitements are rapidly pass ing away. Our people can now have time for reflection. They will now move freely ; come to the tombs of their martyrs, stretch ed on their shields in wakeless sleep, and make their offerings for perpetual remem brance. We trust no one will be dissatisfied, but that all will unite with us in saying that the ! sepulchral honors of the dead should not be ! marred by impatience or selfish cotlsfdera i limits Whether we look to the battle-field I or the new made grave, our heroes are wreathed with the honors of dying patriots We bow publicly pledge and solemnly aver that the distribution shall take place on the ! THIRD DAY OF APRIL, 1873, I> V. On that day the curtain will fall upon | this most holy enterprise, and we trust the I people will enable us to present an exhibit | that will be more satisfactory than we could j make on tho 18th insl. I*. A. H. MeLAWS, Tlion Hast Comforted Itte. BY MAUTIN LUTHER. Oft there comes a dreary honr, When no earthly thing can cheer, And we’re under sorrow’s power, With no peace nor comfort near; Then in deep distress we fly To the Lord —the Lord most high. Tell we Him our tale of grief, And He listens to onr prayer; Then to us lie sen Is relief, For His people are His care ; Israel He guides and .keeps, Slumbers not and never sleeps. To the Lord who loves to bend Down to earth a gracious ear, All his children to attend, And their weak complaints to hear; 'Tis on Him we place our trust— nim who coniforteth the just. YOU It FI It.ST SWEETHEART. You can never forget her. She was so young and innocent and pretty. She had such a way of looking at you over her hymn book in church. She alone of all the world did not think you a boy of eighteen, but wondered at your size and learning and your faint fore shadowing of sandy moustache, aud be lieved you every inch a man. When at those stupid evening parties, where boys aud girls, who should, have been eating suppers of bread and milk, and goue to sleep hours before, waltzed aud flirted, and made themselves sick over oysters and champagne, you were favor ed with a glance of her eye or a whis per of her lip, you ascended to the seventh heaven immediately. When onco upon* memorable even she polker ed with the druggist’s clerk, and never even looked at you, how miserable you were. It is funny to think of now,’but it was not then, for you were awfully in earnest. Once at a picnic she wore a white dress and had roses twined in her golden hair, and she looked so much like a bride you fairly trembled; sometimes you thought iu just such sQowy costume, with just such blossoms in her hair, she might stand before the altar, and you, most blessed of all mortals, might place a l ing upon her finger; and when you were left with her for a moment, some of your thoughts would form themselves into words, and though she blushed and ran away, and would not let you kiss her, she . did not seem to be angry. And then when you were somehow parted for a little while, and when you met again she was walking with a gentleman, a large, full grown, whiskered man, of twenty-eight or thirty, and had neither words nor smile for you, and some well-meaning gossip informed you shortly after that she was “engaged” to the tall gentle man with black whiskers, and that ‘‘it was a splendid match.” It was ter rible news to you, then, and sent you off to some great city far from your native place, where, after a good deal of youthful grief, and many resolutions to die and haunt her, you recovered your cquanamity and began to make money and to call love stufl and uon sense. You have a rich wife of your own now, and grown up children —ay, even two or three toddling grandchildren— about your hearth; your hair is gray and you lock your heart up in the fire proof safe at your counting-house when I you go home at night. Aud you thought | you had forgotten that little episode of j your nineteenth year, until the other day you read her death in the papers. You know she was a stout lady who | wore glasses, aud lias died older than she was in that olden time, but your heart went back and you saw her smil ing and blushing, with her golden hair about her face, and yourself a boy again, dreaming of wedding robes and rings, and you laid your gray old head upon your office desk and wept for the mem ! ory of your first sweetheart.— Exchange. II $2 a year, in advance. Thing* thill a Harried Iff an Can not Help Thinking. That all the girls used to be in love with him. That all the widows arc now. That if he wero a widower he could marry again whenever he chose. That all the other follows are fools. That he wouldn’t introduce any fel low he knows to fiis sister or his daugh ter. That his wife is a little jealous. That she used to be a pretty girl. That his mother could bake good bread ; that hi? wife cannot. That he wouldn’t trust most women.

That with a little management the servants would always do veil, and never give warning. That his shirt buttons arc grossly neglected. That he is going to make his fortune some day. That, he despises old bachelors. Things a married Woman Con not Help Thinking. That she was very pretty at sixteen. That she had, or would have had, a great many good offers. That her lady friends are five years older than they say they are. That she has a very fine mind. That if her husband had acted on her advice, he would boa rich man to day; The people think too much of the looks of that Miss , who would not be called handsome if she did not make herself up. That her mother-in-law is a very try ing woman. That her sister-in-law takes airs and ought to be put down. That her girls are prettier than Mrs. A.’s g rls. T at she would like to lyiow where her husband spends his evenings, when he stays out. That her eldest son takes after him. That he is going to throw himself away on Miss Scraggs. That Miss Sjraggs set her cap for h‘in and did all the courting. That her servant girls are the worst ever known. That she has taste in dress. That she has a good temper. That she pities old maids. A little Little llock girl died, a few days ago, of what was supposed to be cerebro-spinal meningitis. The Gazette says: “Dr. Quidor, doubtirg the cause of her death, obtained permission to make a post mortem examination. The examination disclosed the fact that ,hc little girl’s stomach was loaded with boiled cabbage, which had worked itself into one hard solid mass, distending the stomach and causing death, the victim dying in convulsions. The doctor says that many of the deaths credited to this cerebro-spinal disease have nothing to do with it, and are entirely distinct from it.” m ♦♦■■■ A ministerial brother, who married rather sooner after the death of his wife than some of the sisters thought proper and becoming, excused himself as follows: “My dear brethren and sisters, my grief was greater than I could bear. I turn ed every way for peace and comfort, but none come. I searched the Seripters from Ginisee to lliverlations, and found plenty of promises to the widder, but nary one to the widderer. And so I took it that the good Lord didn’t waste sympathy on a man when it was in his power to comfort himself, and having a first-rate chance to marry in the Lord, I did so, and would do the same thing again. Besides, my brethren, I consid ered that poor Patsev was just as dead as she would ever be.” method of .Stopping Toothache. Many receipts arc giveu from time to time for stopping that most distracting and unnerving of pains, the toothache. But there is one check, so simple and so nearly certain that it should be far more widely kuown than it U. Its ap plication, however, is for the most part restricted to the lower jaw: When a tooth in the lower jaw aches, put a bit of icc between the tongue and the gum, and hold it with the tongue against the root of the tooth in which the pain is felt. The effcot will often be astonishing. We have known tooh aches that had raged furiously for days together, and had nearly driven their unhappy victims frantic, stopped by this ready means with a suddenness that made the suffereT of one moment abso lutely unaware at the next that he had had any toothache at all. This process is not a cure, however; it is only a check, or palliative; it does not remove the condition that produces the pain.— Nevertheless, we know of one gentle man who was liablo at any moment to maddening attacks of this fearful pain, and who since he learned of this expe dient, has rarely been troubled by bis old enemy. The reason why ibis application can not so readily be made to toothache in the upper jaw is that the roots of the teeth do not lio closo to the roof of the mouth, and are not accessible to the ice held in place by the tongue. The ice, if applied, has to be placed between the cheek and the outer gum, when there is more difficulty a bout keeping in posi tion, and when, if the patieut sits or stands, the water from the melting ice ruus down on the suffering totjtb, and aggravates instead of alleviating the pain. Still, if the sufferer lies in sueh a position that the water does not touch the tooth, an icicle may be taken in winter, with one end wrapped in a handkerchief and the other end held against the root of the tooth (or rather against the wm on the outer side of it), with very good effect. In summer it is less easy to apply ice to the upper jaw, but if the victim can do it without letting the cold water run on the tooth, it will in most cases give relief. Another application of ice consists in wrapping a lump ot that substance in a handkerchief, and holding it against the face just forward of the ear, where the nerves from all the teeth concentrate on their way to the braiu. This some times proves efficacious, but there is no certainty whatever of its success.— Washington Journal. ) NO. 28. —_—►— i —| — Fanny Fern on Editors. Fanny Fern think; it a great pity that editors, in reviewing the books written by women, so often Fall into the error fo reviewing the woman instead of the book. After having her say on this sub ject, she talks of editors in general terms, thus : “It is a pity that an editor should not be a gentlemen, for bis own sake, and because no position can be more honorable than bis, if he choose to make it so, nor more influential for good or evil. Think of the multitude he ad dresses—the thinking men and women who pass his columns under critical review. Surely, this messenger cross ing the sacred threshhold of home, might well step carefully, reverentially, discreetly, and discuss fairly, justly, all topics cspecialy conuected with home duties aud home responsibilities. Sure ly, his advertising list, if he have one, should be a clean one, such as any frauk browed, hitherto innocent young boy, might read. Surely, the maiden, whose horizon is not bounded by a strip of ribbon or silk, or even the marriage alter, should have the great question of the day, relating to the future of her sex, not brushed aside with a contempt uous sniff, or treated with flippant ridi cule, because this is the shortest and easiest way of disposing of that which requires thorough and fair deliberation.. It seems o strange to me, who hold in such exalted estimatiou an .JtwJP"- ing that one should ever be fputid will ing to belittle it; it is also a great com fort to know that thqre are those who hold this their position, for honor and interest second to none, ami In this light conscientiously conduct the paper, so far as their strength and means allow. This would be a very stupid world, [ grant, if individuality were not allowed in the editorial chair, as well as else where; hut leaving a wide margin for this, h there not still room iu iiiany newspapers for more justice, manliness, courtsey, aud above all respectful men tion of women, even though the exi gence of her life may compel her to ad i dress the public*. , ;•
