LECTION OF OFFICERS FOR TIIE PRESENT YEAR. i is well known the members of the above organi zation is composed chiefly snd perhaps entirely of Israelite friends in the city who, seven years ago, affected its organization. Since its inauguration it has been conducted in such an admirable manner as to win for its members the respect and confidence of the people. Giving at interval# a variety of entertain ments of their own, they have also been exceedingly liberal in granting the use of their hall to others for the purpose of giving exercises. "We learn that there are now more th«n fiity bonafide members of the organization, and that the condition of the association, financially and otherwise, is splen did.

Jefferson Davis. During the recent incarceration of policemen T. G. Jones and John O’Shields, on the charge of murder, they were very kindly and humanely treated by Mrs. Wise, the excellent lady of onr efficient jailor, Capt. John 8. Wise. Actuated by a dflfelre to show their appreciation of this kindness and sympathy for their unfortunate comrades, the police force contributed sufficient money to purchase an elegant silver ice pitcher and castor, combining call-bell and fruit-stand with the castor. These were yesterday presented to Mrs. Wise by John W. Butler, Eeq., on behalf of the police force. It was a fitting testimonial of the respect of the gallant Atlanta police for a most estimable lady. Personal Intelligence.

This organization, composed of yosug men of ths city, held a very pleasant as well as interesting meet ing at Trinity Church last evening, whleh was very well attended. A letter which had been received from Secretary of a similar association in Augusta, containing valuable suggestions, was on motion, referred to the secretary to answer, he being Instructed to return the thanks of the Associa tion for their expressions of regard for, and yaluabls suggestions to, the Association here. Several committees were announced by the chair, including one composed of a member from each church represented in the association, to disseminate in their respective churches and communities the objects of the organization. Quite a number of applications for bership were referred to ths appropriate com mit Kee. When on motion, the association adjourned to meet •gain on Thursday evening next, at the Christian Church, on Hunter street. Fi©m the New York Mercury. The following “intercepted letter, the Homo Journal, tells funnily how a young miaa feels when surreptitiously engaged: Dear Allie: I have got a real, live, grown up beau; and isn’t it jolly. He’s perfectly splendid; jnst like those lovely wax figures iu the windows, only they can’t use their lips. Ilt’s myjFrench teacher, and he always smells so sweet of pond lilies! I don’t have anything to do with the boys now; those little boys of sev enteen and eighteen do very well when there are no men around, if they can get money enough from their pas to buy us Gunther’s candles, but they can’t amnse us girls of four teen, they seem just like babies, and when they try to make love—O, my! arn’t they mushy ? Now, Monsieur Fontaine acts as if he bad been engaged twenty times, although I’m his first love; but we don’t lec on before ma, and Those. It makes Arethusa awfnl mad to have me call her Tbuse, and that’s the reason I do it. I heard her ask ma the other day if that Frenchman’s manners were not too familiar toward that child. Child ! She’s awtully afraid of mj being a young lady! What need she care, now she’s married ? Wasn’t she spooney, though, about Fred \ When he used to come and see her, I would drag Tommy into the room and put my arm around his waist and squeeze his hand until her face would be as red as a beet. Such fun! I caught her kissing him once—such a little nipping kiss, jnst as if she were tasting pepper sauce. Now, if 1 pretended to kiss a man, I’d do it in right good earnest; just plant my feet square on the ground, and give it to him sure pop right on the lips. Oh, Allie, poor Those would go off in a dead faint at my low bred expressions, and inform me, for the nine hundred and ninth time, that my name is Ellsworth. Ju-st as if I didn’t know my own name, and what does it matter, anyway, when I expect to change it so soon? I do not intend to hang on to it until I am a horrid old maid, like poor Miss Tracy opposite. She might be a warning to the strongest-minded. She’s nervous, and how I do love to scare her. I promised Tommy the other day five cents worth of pea-nuts to let me hold him out of onr third story'window. He’d let me skin him for a paper of pea-nuts. So I got him out, and knelt down under the window ledge, where I couldn’t be seen, and held tight hold of his wrists. Tbuse thinks my strength is dismasting. Pretty soon there w as an elderly shriek, and then an elderly form rnshed across the street to mother, bat by the time they got up stairs I was seated quietly at my crotchet-work, and Tommy was turning sum mersaults on the bed, over the lovely fluted pillow-cases. And ma still thinks it is poor Miss Tracy that is “a little wild at times.” 1 love my brother Fred ever so mocli, but I don’t see how he ever came to fancy such a die-away specimen as our Thus?. Because she is so awfully pretty, I suppose; but she just turns him around her thumb. If he re fuses to get what she wants, she jnst looks like a martyr in the flames, and lets down all her back hair like the Magdalens in tho pic ture gallery. And although they are real pretty hanging on the walls, even an artist does not want to sit at the table three times a day opposite a live one, with her eyes rolled up and her hair down her back. So poor Fred always gives in, and she smiles a forgiv ing smile, puts up her hair, and goes off to buy the fine set cf jewelry that has taken her fancy. And when she gets it she keeps tight hold of it, too. She has never given me even a cuff button. Tbuse always was stingy. And she is so stuck-up, because she has got a son, jast as if it were some thing wonderful. Why, Mrs. Tubbs, our laundress, has eight of them, besides one that was drowned and one scalded, and she isn’t a bit set-up. But Arc’bnsa says “my boy !” and does the maternal all to pieces. She thinks Alexis is made out ot nicer mate rials than most babies, and I know she doesn’t believe the catechism where it says he was made out of the vulgar dust of the earth. I suppose she thinks rose leaves and corn starch were used to make up his delicate organiza tion. It wonld relieve my feelings to 6ee a speck of dirt on that child’s face; it makes me ache to see him so painfully clean. And she thinks he is going to be a little Solomon, or some humbug or other. Now, AV.ie, I have got a secret that you rnusn t tell a living soul. If you do, I will never forgive yon. I have promised Mon sieur Fontaine to be married in three weeks, on my fonrtcentn birth-day, and if mother seems likely to object, we are going to elope, just like the girls in the novels. Won’t it be splendid ! Just think what a sensation it will make ! The Chicago papers will be full of it! “Elopement in high life. The lovely daughter of the rich and elegant Mrs. E h eloped with her teacher.” Boor Thuse would do high tragedy, wring her hands and talk of the disgrace to their noble bou3eof Ellsworth. I should think her delicate shoulders would ache from carrying our noble house so long. Now, don’t you breathe a word about it, and I will stand by you if you run away with a shoe-black. Married at fourteen ! Just think ! I shall beat Thuse out and out. Then, too, some thing might happen to Monsieur Fontaine. Of course I wouldn’t have anything happen to him for the world; but then something might, you know—the railroads are always smashing up; and if there should, why then I would be a young and interesting widow; and black ©Tape with my fair complexion would be so sweet, and O, Allie, do you think that I am too young to wear a widow’s'eap ? What a blow that cap would be to Arethusa? ►She had rather receive a whole paper of needles in her side—that is, goldheaded ones, not your 4 common steel things. Now, Allie Wyndham, if you tell you’ll be just as mean as you can be. Celia Ellswobth (for a little while.) HIS ARRIVAL AT THE NEW TORE HOTEL—HOW nE SNUBBED AN INTERVIEWEE. On Thursday Jefferson Davis, tho former President of the Confederacy and the elephant of the administration when he was a prisoner in Fortress Munroe, entered the office of tho New York Hotel and inscribed his name on the register, and in a few minutes there after a Herald reporter, who had heard of Mr. Davis’s presence in town, called at tho hotel and sent up his card, intending, if the Confederate chieftain pleased to converse, to gather hiB opinions. The interviewer says: “Word was brought back that Mr. Davis was at dinner and that the card had been left in his room. After a short time Mr. Davis came from the dining-room and approached the office counter. He wore his hat and car ried an nniighted cigar in his month. While one of the proprietors of the hotel conversed with him the reporter scanned the features of the Mississippi fire-eater, venerable to most loyalists only from his age. His face did not seem long, as most portraits make it. but very sharp and angular. He wears a slight beard, of uncertain color, part white and part of a sandy hue, which, with the high fiilk hat, may have taken from the length of his countenance. His eyes were perplexing to the reporter. He could not discern their color, and while they are not what are termed “cross eyes,” they gave tho reporter the problem of determining during the subsequent short conversation whether Mr. Davis, who kept his face set toward him all the time, was looking at him, or turning his orbs inward to attempt a phys ical process of introspection. These were the characteristics of Mr. Davis as noted last even ing. Looking at him generally, he appeared in good health, perfectly at peace with him self and the world. The reporter, waiting lor the hotel proprietor to finish his conversation with Mr. Davis, stood at tho desk near this gentleman, and, as their voices were not low, heard the subject of talk. It was tbe cholera in the South. Mr. Davis declared that the disease that has has appeared is certainly the Asiatic cholera. He thinks, however, that it is only endemic, and proper care will prevent it Though all classes of people have been attacked, he said only the poor and the ne groes have died. The poor whites oftener re covered from the disease than the negroes, for the reason that the negroes are selfish and will not employ physicians until too late, lor fear of the charges. Mr. Davis having ended these remarks, the reporter introduced himself to his notice. He was received kindly, and addressed in a calm, soft voice, and with a slow speech. The re porter announced his desire to hear an ex pression of the views of Mr. Davis on the af fairs of the country. “The best heritage" is a business eduoa- IS A Af! T II HARR & Til lion.

Gineral Bn tier’s nomination for tbe Govern orship of Massachusetts was before the State Temperance Alliance last Tuesday. The Al liance, however, couldn’t make up ils mind whether the General was to be trusted to en force the liquor law or not, and took a fort night to consider the matter. One anient gentleman supported Gen. Butler’s nomina tion in rather a questionable way, by say ing that he “would rather have a devil in hell who would enforce the liqnor law, than an angel of light who would do no more than Governor Washburn has.” We wonld sup pose the General wonld get tired of being considered no more than a convenient fiend incarnate. But somehow this is the reputa tion which he has acquired, and to these uses very virtuous folks seem willing to put him. They forget that the fiend incarnate may in the end, props a very troublesome and unsat isfactory monster. If he should be elected to enforce tlie law and then shouldn’t enforce it, the kettle of fish would be altogether too pretty for haman nature’s daily food. Pious folks who use fiends incarnate to further pious ends, may find that they have engaged io a somewhat impious business. —Nero York Tribune 28th.

Established only in August o last year, he Atlanta Herald has, in five short months, risen to the front rank of Georgia journalism, and has obtained a circulation which has not any precedent in the history of Southern newspapers. When first issued, the proprietors declared their purpose to make the Herald a bold, outspoken paper, independent of all political parties, cliques and rings and devoted solely to the interests of the masses, without regard to class or station. The condition of politi cal parties in the South was such, that un der no circumstances could the Herald give its support to Radicalism; hence, it has in variably advocated tbe election ot Democrats to office, such advocacy being based upon the capacity of candidates. The Herald, there fore, has assamed the position of an inde pendent Democratic newspaper, and will con tinue to hold it, so long as the Democracy remain tbe political party which serves the people with more honesty and ability than any other party in the Stale. Nevertheless, tlie Herald will continue, in the future, as in the past, to criticise men and measures, without regard to political prejudices and affiliations, condemning everything its pro prietors believe injurious to the interests of Georgia, and praising and supporting all that they believe likely to promote the pros perity of the State and the happiness of her people. As a newspaper, the Herald is already ad mitted to be without a rival in Georgia. Events transpire with such rapidity that every per son who desires to keep paca with the times, must have a live daily or weekly paper. Our columns will be fonnd to give the very latest news on every subject Whatever of inter est occurs in any part of the world is made known to our readers, and all the various top ics of tho day are discussed intelligently and without bias. Never before in the history of the world was it more necessary for every person who can read to subscribe for a newspaper. The struggle between centralism and Constitu tional Democratic Government is entering upon a new phase. Gigantic railroad and bond rings at the North control and direct the legislation of Congress, and as their in terest can only be advanced by tbe existence of a strong, centralized government, they are passing laws, ono by one, whoso ultimate de sign is to reduce the States to the con dition of mere provinces. Encroachments more radical and startling than ever have been made on the rights of the peopl.o The South has been converted into a second Ire land; her governments overturned by the mandate of a petty judge, backed by federal bayonets ; her people plundered by foreign adventurers and native scoundrels, and her libei ties crushed out with a ruthlessness which has not any parallel save in Poland, Ireland, and Hungary. To-day the men who struggled through six years of bloody warfare, and the children of the martyrs to the cause of South ern Independence are political slaves, and what their future is to be, remains shrouded iu impenetrable darkness. Meantime, the terrible corruptions of the party in power, as proven by tbe Credit Mobilier expositions, implicating the outgoing and incoming Vice Presidents, togetner with a large number of the most prominent leaders of tho Radicals, arc undermining the very foundation of Dem ocratic institutions, and paving the way for empire. While in the United States there is much of mournful interest to attract the reader of cotemporary history, abroad the drama is equally exciting and important. France is still kept unquiet by the violence of political factions; in Great Britain the masses are moving towards Democracy; in Germany the Church question has assumed formidable proportions; in Italy the situation increases in interest, while in Spain there are evidences that the revolution which placed Amadeus on the throne is not yet ended. Everywhere, in short, do we daily witness new and startling occurrences, the regular and faithful record of which makes the Herald a perfect history of the world. With a large corps of competent and ex-1 perienced editors, correspondents and repor ters, and with arrangements concluded or makThg for letters from all parts of the world we can promise to the reading public a paper which will, in every respect, satisfy their de sires. Literature, science, the arts, will all receive attention. Our agricultural, com mercial and manufacturing interests will bo earnestly and steadfastly supported, and our columns will always be kept open to poor and rich alike.
