Telegraph & Messenger. TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 25. 1871. HiV&nmh Hawkins ville Macon.. A Netv Book or Sonnets. •‘Intaglios” is tho title of a new book of sonnets, by John Payne, jnot published in London, which is favorably received. The following is a specimen: Thy hair lay gold upon tho silvered grass. And floated on it, as a flower's fall cup And golden tassels float and waver up Athwart a lake’s oool crystal, through whose glass The flooding moon forbids the eye to pass. I deemed they but a dream within a dream, When first thon elion’st upon mo—all agleam With glamour—and did look to eco theo fade Into the faint far purple of tho glado Savannah.. At I approached; but Io I thou didst arise. And nearing, on my lips thy finger laid ; Then smiling with a sweetness high and wiso, Withdrew’st that wand or white, and in its stead Didst kies me welcome on the month and eyes. Georgia Politics, from Centre to Clr- camfercnce. From the Journal of Commerce.! i, .»*, ( Atlanta, June, Juno, 1871. Thiro is always a method to find out at the Capital of a State tho general theories and a mm?r-mtft amount of tho details of tho political feelings of tho State. I have gone through Georgia and seen a good deal of the condition of things for myself. I have talked with the high and low, from tho State officers, relected and appointed, the Chief Justice of the Su premo Court, and tho most prominent men in the .State to tho field hand on the plantation. * A Ecnisn speech to an Irish audience at the North would be followed by a loud collision of applauding hands, while the better judgment of tho same andionce wonld prevent tho subscrip tion of $100, or tho enlistment of a discreet man to fight for tho principle tbat caused tho plaudit. JuBt to day in tho Sonth, Jefferson Davis might give notice that ho wonld address an andience at a given place, and from the timo that he wonld enter tho door till ho wonld reach the platform tho large concouTSO wonld stand and mako’.the 'building shako to its foundation with applanse. Butthey would do nothing more. < Tho memories of tho near past still linger afn&h in the minds of tho Southern people. Mr. Davis was their sectional President, and they remember tbo fact in connection with tho oanse for which one-half tho living yonng men of tho Sonth took np arms. Bat aside from their applanse their better judgment wonld not carry them to excesses, even if advised to such a coarse by Mr. Davis. They remember the eanse they fought for, but thoy remember it was lost, and bore tho matter ends. Mr. Toombs fa regarded here, ns an elegant gentleman, 'a most brilliant orator, liberally endowed with ideas, easy of access, and tho best phrase-maker in Georgia, or perhaps in the country. Tho peeplo of Georgia accord to him all the honore that belong to his great in tellectual attainments, but still fail to credit him with judgment or discretion, because tboy believe ho lacks balance. Mr. Alexander Ste phens could demolish any-fabric roared by Mr. Toombs. These two non wore Whigs together, heenmo Democrats together, but split on tbo question of secession. Whenever they met at issue Mr. Stephens won tbo confidence of tbo andience. Even in the Legislature Mr. Ste phens. in a few moments, postponed the act of secession against tho appeals of Mr. Toombs. Now. Mr. Stephens advises the acceptance of the Democratic platform of 18G8. _ Hero yon have three men of whom tho Northern newspapers say a good deal. Now let ns oxnmine their present stntns: Mr. Toombs leads nobody here except him' self, and he changes his opinion as often as threo times a day. Mr. Davis is not now rocognized as a poll tician, and the people are sorry whenever he speaks in public on politics. They entertain high respect for him, bnt be docB not lead them. Mr. Stephens has a strong hold upon tho sincere affections of the Southern people. Yet be does not control any considerable portion of them, even in Georgia. I mention these things as facts. Thoy are faots, not because the people of Georgia despise those men, bnt because they feoi that they can not effect any good result by continuing in strife. They were satisfied to support the prin ciples laid down in the address of tho Demo cratic Committee because they conld not do better. They accepted tho situation boldly. Tho New Departure theory denounces what thoy opposed, and thon accepts the denounced legislation as settled issues. Thoy are satisfied with that. The people of Georgia oaro littlo what plat form the Democrats adopt By the people of Georgia is meant of course, the intelligent pop ulation, nearly all of whom vote one way. They roalizo that tho battle ground of the next po litical contest mnst be in the North. Georgia, thon, being opposed to Radicalism by a major* ity of 50,000, will east her electoral vote foraDV sort of acceptable candidate or platform adopted bv the Democratic party of the North. Not only will the conservative men do it, bnt ovory man in Georgia who opposes Radicalism will vote for the Democratic nominee. Tho yonng men of Georgia hold tho balance of power to-day. Probably the throe most in fluential men in tho party in tbo State are Clif ford Anderson, of Macon, Chairman of the State Deinoomio Executive Committee; Jame3 M. Smith, of Mnscoogee, and JnliaD Hartridge, of Savannah, men who were hardly known be fore the war. Probably tho next nominee for Governor will bo Alfred H. Colquitt. The Democratic party of Georgia, with them, will aooept tho situation. Georgia is just now engaged in raising herself to a proud eminence among the prosperous States. Her people want to go on m the path thoy have marked ont, and they have embarked in the enterprise with a determined energy that will not stop short of success. They seem to have imbibed the idea that every time one of their anti-war leaders spreads his views before the people the effect is to set them back in proportion to the bitterness of hiq harangue, Hence they bogin to feel that the worst enemies to their prosperity are to be found in the house of their friends.

A Washington correspondent writes: As for Mrs. Bowen, her case excites tho deep est interest and sympathy here. She is devotedly attached to her humerous husband, and de clares that, she will stick to him. She believes that her marriage was legal, and that it was formed in good faith by both her husband and herself. It is said they are now living together, occupying a house here owned by herself. Bow en’s friends assert that he will at once take steps to procure a legal divorce, to which he is entitled, while persons who are not particularly friendly say he will do nothing of the kind— that he is not- entitled to a divorce—that no court would dare to grant it now, and that he dare not apply for it; bnt that he and Mrs.- Pettigru King will oontinue to live together, leaving the tforld to say anil think as it pleases, thus leav ing it in the bands of the other two Mistresses Bowen to obtain divorces on the ground of adultery, if they see fit. The gentleman, who lives in Charleston, above alluded to, says that Mrs. Bowea was celebrated for her wit and sarcasm in Charleston, and he related many instances of her brilliancy in conversation and in society. She was at one time regarded as the most brilliant and fascinating woman in the Statu, and owing to her father’s position, her society was greatly songht by distinguished strangers. She was, in fact, in her prime (per haps after she was married to her first husband) the sort of woman that was always popular among gentlemen, but looked upon with suspi cion (born of envy you may be sure) by the ladies. She reigned supreme in every assem bly, party or rout, and tho prim, modest-going ladies called her fast. AN ANECDOTE. When Thackeray visited Charleston many years ago, at a party given in his honor, he was presented to Mrs. King. In his blunt English manner he greeted her: “My dear madame, I am very glad to see you. I have heard tunen of you. I hear you are very witty, but very fast.” With a light laugh and a square look into his eyes, she answered quickly: “Oh, but Mr. Thackeray, we must not believe everything we hear. Now, I have heard you were a gentleman.” It is doubtful if this recounter overtook plaoe between the parties named, bnt it will pass just the same. The announcement of the death of a resident cf Augusta, Me., at the extreme age of 101 years, reminds the Newburyport Herald of the singular phf.ses which human life presents. Twenty-eight years ago this man was quite sick, snd his life was despaired of. A neighbor, an active business man, in average health, paid him a vis! : tho time, and, on returning to his own home, re>. srke-i that he tea od ins seed '-i«nd would not .sve until morning. The J ""Hri 1 . ly p.issed his lipa when he drop- a not of heart disease.

Yours, very .truly, ’ ‘ G. M. STOKES. Since last fall, and before accepting Patent, we added improvements and labor-saving conveniences- rendering it PERFECT in every particular.
