Telegraph & Messenger. WEDNESDAY MOKNINO. NOV. 22. 1871. Tnuh}' Hoott.n mid Mnslc in Snmltsy NcllOOlH. Xha New Yotk Bon, of Saturday, has a very aensibla and apropos article on this aobjeot, which wo heartily endorse. The editor gives •eeeral epeeimen slanaaa from hymns be re- oently beard song by a choir of a thousand children at the Brooklyn Blnk, on some anni versary occasion, which are simply idiotic bosh. For example, these two: i far glory, "Tbs poor cripple baa a c As joodaobanoeeayooorli Christ will listen to his story. Os will bear the cripple s cry. A^d SreSSSTtKeJ'who bare to b«; *- The person who wrote this stuff would cer- tainly go to Besren if being the possemor of s wooden heed were e pre-requisite. And too many of oar Sanday school books, .1—. wr ml j say, are as liable to criticism and oswnra as the bjmos from which snob quota tion, u the shows are made. Those who write seem to know nothing whatever a boat real boy and girls, nor even of hnmsn nature. Their premia#, moat generally, ia that there are only two til-— of children in the world—the diagnatiDgly aanctimonona, and the absolutely and unqualifiedly wicked. Tbeir good girls are usually only a very little lower than angels, and thair good boys, each mean, sneaking, hypocrites as are never seen anywhere outside the pages of these trashy Sunday school books. And their wicked boy ia as great a earrieatnre aa the good boy. He la as great a monstrosity as waa ever painted in a tan oent blood and thunder novel—though, on the last page, he ia frequently suddenly transformed into a said, and sent straight to Heaven. We really think it is abont time to purge our Sunday School shelves of inch stuff. It is nn- wboleaome and pernicious in the extreme, be cause It gives those whose minds arc peculiarly plastic, faiao impressions in a guise, and at a time, when it is peculiarly important that the very reverse should be the case. One of the strongest objections nrged against novel reed ing ia that it ia calculated to give young persons false views of life, and to nnfit them for the reoeption and relish of other and more whole some mental food. The same objection, it seems to ns, applies and with equal, if not greater force lo the dess of Sunday School liter- •tore we have alluded lo. What child, after baooming accustomed to the unnatural diet set forth iu thiasortof Sunday Schoolbooks, can rest satisfied with food of a plainer and more whole some description I As well expect an average boy, under the spell of his first introduction to deer old Boblmion Crusoe, to cheerfully torn his baek upon that delightful person, and greed ily smbraoe the disgusting imps that lark and grin through the mnltiplicatlon table and deci mol fractions? As one of the ingest of the Bomsn philosophers remarked: It's “agin nelnr." Let these whom it most concerns, and who ean work a reformation in this matter, aet about it at unco. There i* urgent need and ample room for a thorough one. “Jlotrey Abunrlnnl!” The Nashville Banner, or Sanday, says: In the States Bomb of ns money seems to be more abundant than at any lime ainoe the war, though last season wee anything bnt a prosper- one one ia a pecuniary point of view. It was expected that there vroqld be a heavy drain upon New York to move the ootton crop, but tbna far there baa been soiroely any Southern demand for enrrency, though abont 1100,000 bales of the crop have been marketed. Hr. Banner oome down this way and point ont just a little of this abundance, for we can not see it. Our fixed impression is that money in Central Georgia, ia as yet not very mnob more plentiful than it was in mid summer. The faot ia nntil factors' acceptances are disposed of and debts cancelled all round, it takes very little meaty to move the crop. It is a general transfer of olsims, tbst sets very little money afloat in the country. Wo hope the remainder of the crop will set enrronoy afloat and esse the pinch a little. THE GEORGIA rKF.S’t. We have received the second issue of the Hancock Sentinel, a new paper just established at Sparta, which promises to be, when oonrid erably better printed than this number, a cred iteblo addition to Georgia journalism. Fmm it wo copy these items: “Axidxxt."—In Diiacy, on last Tuesday, a Radical negro waa thrown over the bead of a mule. When reaching tbe ground bis first rep'y waa, “you dtrn'd eld Democrat." Ox Thursday night a colored individual of this neighborhood, while engaged in the attempt surreptitiously to increase her supply of winter fad, loaded herself so heavily that, on her re turn, while crossing a gutter, her strength gave way, and she fell into it, sevsrely injuring, if not breskieg ber back. Ox Friday, tbe 10th taut. Hr. Thomas Hob by killed e young man named Ben. Roberta, both eilizans of this oounty. We understand that tbe difficulty arose from an old grudge on tha part of Roberta. The affair happened in the public toed. Tbe body of Roberts was taken abont five miles from tbe place of tbe killing, where an inquest was held. Tbe verdict of the Coroner's jury, we hear, ia justifiable homicide. Tbe foreign shipments of cotton from Savan, nab, on Saturday, were 5,711 bales of nplands- valucd at §120,895, and 22 bales of sea island, valued at $4,478. The Savannah Fair follows pretty nearly in our track in the matter of outside shows. There will be a ballooa ascension, a band belonging to a Federal infantry regiment, Weston, the hop- skip and jumper, who calls it walking, with the addition of a race between five Apache (?) In- The Great Problem of the Future George Wilkes haa written a letter from Paris, In whloh he relate! and reviews at consider able length the great politico-labor movements in Enropo and this oonntry. He says that the working cl eases of the world will bo the supreme power of tbe fntare. The relations of eapital and labor are to be tbo great questions divid- log parties here and elsewhere, on which the New York Commercial remarks : We have boriod slavery, we have settled the problem of secession, and now we are to face the iaiuee ratted by the mighty labor move ment whoee violent and revolutionary princi ples are represented by the Internationale Society. Bnt behind this dangerous organiza tion arc tha aspirations of workingmen who would not aohieve their ends by disorder, and to whose solicitations the politicians of the future cannot be indifferent The “Inter- nationals'' may perish of tbeir own folly, bnt the problems arising from the relations of capi tal and labor will clamor for solution, and will be, in point of importance to some future generation of onr people, what the slavery question haa been lo no. Boons' Oarmx.—We aee from an advertise ment in this edition, that Ur. U. It Rogers la selling this candy, from faia factory on Cherry street in lots of 200 pounds and upwards, at 17 cents, and in smaller quantities down to boxes of 27. pound* at 18 oents a pound. Rogers’ can dy ia very fins—always bright lustrous, bard and brittle, and may be relied npoa at made from pare anger and free from injurious color ing matter. He docs a large wholesale business and wall deserves success. Tns WxaTnn.—The easterly atorm which waa reported in New York on Monday, reached ns yesterday, and we had a very inclement day, while New Yotk was rejoioing in all the glories of bright aanahinc and tha Grand Dnoai recep tion. The Great Fair at Savannah opened yea- day nnder very depressing circumstances, as to weather, bnt we, at tbia writing, are glad to hail rJI the angaries fer bright skies daring the remainder of the week. Snawanam ix Notxmbz*.- At Dr. O. Cot- lias' realdenoe in Maoon, on Monday, eighteen guest* were furnished with aa many ample plates of strawberries wbioh bad ripened in tbe open sir. What ia remarkable, the strawberries were of large site—some of them an iooh and a quarter in diamater, and they were also full flavored and sweet—not the nsnal acrid or taateleaa things that these berries are apt to be when maturing ont of season. A Gxxit Finn ix CnxnLOTTx, North Carolina, broke ont et 2 o'clock last Saturday morning, and destroyed abont thirty-live thousand dol lars' v due of property on which there was some $24 'HO i run ranee. The Observer says it was undoubted the work of inoendiaries. QtzmVicxoaie Sana -Dr. McLeod state* offir JJy that be haa attended the Queen for over thirteen years, and declares that all reports that Her Mr jeaty has shown symptoms of mental wctl.nase tie unqualifiedly false. Tn Boston Post asji; “The hide of a Bol lock ia very thick; hot the Governor's attempt to hide hla rascality ia very thin." Tax importers of New York, have published a letter, which complains of the obstruction to guoda coming through the Custom Home. Barrar, Srvwr.—The Gilroy (Cal.)

The finit round consisted of the bull making a rush at the bear and knocking him over; bear gets np and Mixes ball by the fore leg end chews th- tl-ah off it, making Taurus bo»l with pain: the l>«ir was pulled off by the Mexicans lij means of a lariat. The s»cond and iLird rounds were both in favor of the boar, wjo took tbe bull literally by the horns and endeavored to eat him np, commen cing at tbe bend. The foenh and last rouud. thoUsr se . rd tbe bull by tbe tail and pulled him down, bear nnder, who triod hr complete his victory by eating from tbe other end, when they were again separated. Both the combat ant* s.-rrned to have had enough, as no amount of red tlmnel oonld aggravate tbe bull, and pokit-g with sharp mirks failed to excite the boar, so the tight ended, the bull being led out of tlio arena literally streaming With blood. There were three robberies and attempts thereat at Savannah last week, in one of which Mr. Augustas Baric, druggist, lost some valua ble papers, $20 in silver and $75 in greenbacks. Speaking of the illiberal proscriptions of Con gress embraced in the Fourteenth Amendment and tbe enforcement act, which make ell who held office before the war, and “aided tha re bellion,” ineligible and liable to prosecution and fine if they run for offioe, the Athens Bitt ner say*: Wc are utterly opposed to the aentment too commonly expressed, that holds in light estimate tbe wisdom, experience and virtue of the class of men thus proscribed. “Down with the old leaders, and give the yonng men a chance,” ia the agrarian cry of groundings, who in oompe- tion with men of brains oonld never rise above mediocrity. Wo must consent to see those we have heretofore honored and trusted give place to men of inexperience, beeanse it in the stern demand of power; bnt let os never admit the wisdom or justice of the demand by endorsing it, and thereby cast reproach upon those who have devoted their lives to the pnblio serrioe. “We have only to compare the laws and the ad. ministration of the laws, in the days when these 'old leaders' were in office, with tbe wreck, end waste, and plunder which have followed their disp'acement to have convincing evidenee that the change has boon disastrous. The ‘old lead- firs’ are the jewels of onr political heritage. Let ha cherish them, and not out them aside with contempt, while we are compelled to accept the pinchbeck regime wbioh God in his wisdom has permittted to affliot ns." We aee from the last issue of the Southern Christian Advocate that Rev. F. Milton Kenne dy, who waa reoently chosen to succeed Dr. Mycti as editor of that paper, has accepted the position. Frank James, a Grant voter, of Atlanta, stole a coat on Saturday, waa married Sanday, and took dinner in jail on Monday. Such ex press speed is enough to make James’ head swim. Mr*. Jonathan Milner, of Griffin, died Mon day morning. Wc find the following items in the Monroe Advertiser, of yeeterday: Duboucsx. Plot.—Wo have recently came in possession of the facts relative to the whole sale attempt at arson on the premises of Mr. K. C. Taylor, rear Golaparehee, on the night of the 12th. Abont 10 o'clock fire was discov ered nnder the main dwelling, bnt fortunately in time to prevent any seriona damage to the building. A few moments after it was oxtin- gniebed, the alarm was again sounded, when it was fonnd that the incendiaries had set fire to the crib, whioh was filled with corn, fodder and oats. Within five minotes the bnilding with its contents would hsve been in ashes. It is believed that this diabolical plot was insti. gated by Henry Bali and his sons, Ben and (Joorgo, freedoms, who wore discharged by Mr. Taylor, daring the summer, for neglect of doty. Cbop Statzmest.— 1 The crops are generally gathered in this eonnty. The area in corn was abont tbe same as last year, with about one-half the yield. Dnring July and August it was be lieved that tbe cotton crop would prove a fail ure, bnt tho receipts at the warehouses indicate a half crop. This, of course, leaves the financial condition of the eonnty anything but satisfac tory. It is true, many fanners show a clean balance sheet, bnt a majority executed obliga tions they are nnable to meet, and in many in- atanors onr merchants will be forced to grant further indulgence, perhaps nntil naxt season. Good Famono.—Colonel A. Leary made twenty-one bushels of oom per acre, and seven bales of cotton to the hand, without the use of fertilizers. Mr. W. G. McCook made seven bales of cotton, weighing 480 pounds each, forty bushels of corn, one hundred and fifty bushels of potatoes, besides peas, etc., without assistance. At a sale in Spalding eonnty last week corn sold at 76 cents per bushel, cash, and $1 per bnahel on twelve months time. Wo are indebted to the Atlanta Constitution, of yeeterday, for these paragraphs: MxsTxators Mutmxa.—On Saturday morning last, abont fonr o’clock, the body of a yonng man named George Jordan, about nineteen years of age, was fonnd on the railroad track just below the depot and opposite the oolored church in Ifewnan. Tha cow catcher struck him on tho head, and one arm was broken. We learn that physicians who were summoned, and made an examination, give it as their opinion tbst he was killed and placed on the track as he had other wonnds on his person not inflicted by the engine or cars. We have not learned tbe result of tbe Coroner's inquest. AiutESTxn.—Three men from Campbell coun ty by tbe name of Grizxard were brought np before United States Commissioner W. B. Smith yesterday, charged with violating the Kn-klnx bill by beating an old negro man. The old gen tleman—A. J. Grizxard—was released on bond of $1,000, and the cither two committed to await a bearing on Friday next. The oolored man is Still confined to his bed. Diath ar ax E-thiable Ladt.—Mrs. J. R. Wylie, wife of Colonel J. R. Wylie, one of onr most prominent merchants, died last Sanday morning. We learn that her remains were taken to Gordon oonnty for interment. The Atlanta Era, of yesterday, says: Bars wick asu Albast Rau.eoad.—We are glad to learn that the reorganization of the Brunswick and Albany Railroad is complete, and that tbia work of internal improvement will soon be perfected. Some change* have been made in the Board of Directors. Mr. Ste phenson. President of the Ooean National Bank of New York, was elected one of the direotors, to fill the vac racy occasioned by the resignation of Lewis Scofield, Esq., of this tire. Claries L. Frost, E-q.. was elected President of the road. The new organization assumes in fall all the liabilities of the road, and trill pay all debts that may have accrued. Furthermore, errange- ments have been made by which sufficient funds will be available for the immediate completion of the road, not only to Cuthbert, but also to- Enfaula, Alabama. Tbe Atlanta Son, of yeeterday, has the fol lowing: Axcthxb Uxsrm.ro Itdc —When H. t Kimball sold the Opera Home to the State of Georgia there was a mortgage of $60,000 upon it—which mortgage is atilt unpaid. Thia mort gage waa for that amount of money loaned to Kimball by the North Western Mutual Life In surance Company, to enable him to pay the S rchaao money, and assist in the bnilding. at mortgage is stiil unsatisfied. Not a cent of the principal has ever been paid, and the in terest on it since May last ia daa. Bullock knew that mortgage was against the property when it was purchased by tbe Legislature. Kimball knew it was unsatisfied when he deeded it to tho State, warranting it to be free from' all liens. Bullock paid Robert If. Brown $500 to investigate tbo title, and acoepicd his opinion tint the title goad. Mr. Brown must have known of the mortgage, for hia law partner at the time. Judge Hopkins, knew it. The Life Insurance Company named, of which Dr. Wm. H. White is tbe effi cient agent in this ci'y. loaned thia money here, and in addition to tha eeccrity of the mortgage on the property, required the building on it to be kept insured, in the sum of $60,000, and the K ilicies properly assigned to the Northwestern atari. Bullock baa been keeping np this fire insnrance, paying the premimna with the peo ple's money, and specifying on tho face of tbe policies, that the loss, if any should occur, must be paid to the company holding this mortgage. Another fact is significant. The deed made by Kimball to the State of Georgia has never been recorded, unless it haa been done within a few days past. Titn New Oiu.eans Levees.—The Time* says: The broken levees above Carro'.tcn present just now a very threatening aspect. In two places the embankments have tumbled into the and a mile or two of new levee must be constructed within forty or fifty days or the city °. f Orleans will be subject to overflow at the first rise of tho winter fl rods. The danger is no imaginary one. Two hundred thousand ptcp.e andtwo hundred millions of property ate in jeopardy if this leveo he not speedily ana securely reconstructed. It has been com menced by the Levee Company, but the pro gress is not satisfactory, and the line staked out is not considered by any mean* sufficiently ex tended. FItOn ATLANTA. General Assembly of Georgia. Proceedings ol Yesterday. Reported for the Telegraph and Messenger.] At.ixta, November 21, 1871.

Mr. Candler opposed the bill because it would give rise to a number of unfounded suits. Mr. Hillyer opposed the bilb Said it would restrain prosecutions because the allegation neoessary to procure the warrant for arrest would be indictable.

The Finance Committee reported as a sub stitute a bill to protect the people of this Stale from tbe illegal issue and negotiation of bond*—providing for a commission of three, one to be elected by the Senate and two by the Home, to investigate all past transactions of that character. Mr. Brown moved to strike ont “commis sioners elected" and insert “committee ap pointed.” The motion prevailed by yeas 22 to nayn 13. The report was adopted and the bill passed. A bill to allow contractors and snb-contrao- tors on railroads a lien on the same for labor done in tho construction thereof. Mr. Brown offered an amendment ‘Tor all la bor done nnder contract made with any railroad company.” Tho bill was dismissed by Messrs. Bruton, Kunnally, Candler, Simmons and Hillyer, and pending which the hour of 1 o’clock arrived and the Senate was declared adjourned. House.—The Honse met at 9 o’clock A. XL Speaker Smith in the chair. Prayer by Rev. Mr. Heidt Journal of yesterday read and approved. Mr. Renfroo introduced a bill to ch&Dge the time of holding the Superior Courts in the Middlo Circuit: and also, a bill to incorporate the city of Sanderevtile, which were read the first time. On motion of Mr. Gray, the rules were sus pended lo take np a resolution providing for tbe appointment of a joint committee to in quire into the legality of the lease of peniten tiary eonviots. On motion of Mr. Goldsmith, Mr. Gray’s resolution was laid on the table. Tbe unfinished business, to-wit, the bill to appoint commissioners to investigate the af faire of this State, was resumed. Mr. Phillips continued his argument. He said that Mr. Scott’s bill wonld organize a com mission, with the powers of a court, and if tbe gentlemen proposed as members of that commission arc obnoxious to the 14th Amend ment, they oonld not set; that he is against the new departuro and the 14th Amendment, but he is unwilling to see anything done by this Homo which might resnit in damage to our State. He nrged the adoption of hi* substitute providing for the appointment of a Joint Com mittee from the Senate and Honse to make.the proposed investigation. Mr. Simmons, of Gwinnett, said it is (he dnty of this Legislature to make this investigation, and the people expect it of ns. The commis sion proposed by the bill would constitute a sort of court, and if any of its members were dis qualified under the fourteenth amendment, or should refuse to act, Mr. Conley would make appointments to fill vacancies. He, therefore, fovored the snbstitute. Mr. Davis, of Newton, thought that none but the guiltv parties can imagine tbe meguitude of the frauds which have been perpetrated against tho State. They ongfat to be ferreted ont and exposed, and ho favored tho commission because those composing it would have more time than members of tbe General Assembly. Mr. MoMillan said that tbe charges of villiaDy againt high officials wore as thick in the land as the locusts of Egypt, and such charges call for immediate investigation. Tbe dnty of making it fells npon the abonldera of tbe members of this General Assembly. Mr. Fon said be was at first opposed to Mr. Scott's bill, bnt is now in favor of it. All ad mit that an investigation ought to be nude. Who should do it is the only question. The sessions of this General Assembly are too short to mike a thorough investigation through committees, therefore Mr. Soott's bill should be passed. If the commissioners to be ap pointed by the bill are ineligible nnder the fourteenth amendment then it would equally ap ply to an Irishman, not a Swede or other person sent to Europe to bring immigrants to Georgia. Mr. Jackson called the previous question. The call was not sustained. Mr. Baoon was opposed to the passage of the bill; did not admit that members of this Legis lature are wanting in ability or experience. Tbey were not sent here because their superiors are ineligible. Again, it is true the investiga tion cannot be finished before the end of the session; bat the committee can continue tbeir labors after adjournment, and its members could oertainly spare as much time as lawyers who stand at the head of the profession. Mr. Johnson, of Jefferson, opposed the bill. Tbe members of the Legislature are competent to mike this investigation—were elected to do it, and their constituents expect them to do their fnli duty. Mr. Riley also opposed the bill. The mem. here of the General Assembly can do tho work, and he did not see the use of getting outside men to do it. Mr. Hillyer said that persons of all parties wanted this investigation rusde. but members of both political parties should be appointed on the committee. If tha charges are true be, for one, wonld bo glad to see punishment fall on the guilty. Mr. Peoples favored the original bill. He wanted on the commission a good lawyer, a good banker, and a good merchant, and suggested the names of Phillip Cl* j ton, Juntos Hi.'Iyer and John A. D oane. Mr. Phillips accepted the substitute offered by Mr, Simmons, of Gwinnett, for his subs' itnte. Mr. Fierce argued in favor of tbe substitute No assurance had been given that tbe com missionere mentioned in the bill wonld serve, and though he had no respect for the bastard amendments to the Constitution of the Unite I States, wonld follow ont the policy of this Honse and respect said amendments as law, till repeal. Then the ineligibniiy of these g-n- tlemen would prevent the fell discharge of thi* dnty. Mr. Dell favored the snbstilu'o, but said it would almost reconcile him to vote for the bill if he knew the gentlemen named therein oonld and wonld serve. Mr. Anderson was neither for the bill mJr the substitutes; be was glad to hear compliments to the intelligence of members of the Legislature, and was not willing to admit that all the intel- iigenre of tbe State is in men nnder disabilities. He favored the appointment of a small Joint Committee who would be authorized to employ an expert banker, a skillful lawyer, and an ex perienced railroad man to ferrit ont these vii- ianies. This idea, he said, had bsen sag gfreed to him by Mr. Wood, of Walker. Mr. 8co t ooncioded the argument in favor of hia bilL Mr. Riley called the previous ques tion. The cell era* sustained. On tbe motion to adopt the snbstitute, the yeas and n»yr were called for with tho follow ing result—j taa 128; nay* 12. So the snbsti tn'e was adopted. Tbe Committee on Internal Improvements' reported in favor of adopting a memorial ad dressed to Congress, in relation to the canal between the Mississippi River and the Atlantic ocean, aid in relation to the appointment of a committee to visit Washington to farther the memorial. A message from the Governor was received bnt not read. This message returned the bill to order a special election for Governor, without approval. The House was declared adjourned nntil 9 a. X, to-morrow. 8. L. Georgia Legislature on Hon day. In the Senate, a bill was introduced by Mr. Kibbee, to carry into effect, article 3, section 5, paragraph 3 of the Constitution, requiring the Governor to witbold his indorsement on rail road bonds nntil it is made clearly to appear that there has been actually invested by private persons, in said railroad, an amount equal to the indorsement applied for, also to repeal an Act requiring Justices of the Feaoe to act as Road Commissioners, in Pulaski oounty. By Mr. Peddy—To incorporate the West Point and Macon Narrow Guage Railroad Com. pany. By Mr. Reese—To create a County Court in eich eonnty in thia State; also, to amend sec tion 4420 of the Code. By Mr. Richard*—To repeal an set to amend section 415 of the Code, in relation to nolle prosequi in criminal cases. Mr. Matthews offered a resolution that, whereas, Rufus B. Bollock has absconded; that a joint committee of five be appointed to inspect and take an inventory of the house and kitchen furniture, silver-ware and all other ar ticles connected with tho Executive Mansion, and report the same to the General Assembly. Adopted. By Mr. Simmons—To prevent any claim against the State being paid by the Treasurer nntil the same his been passed npon by the Legislature. In the Honse Mr. McAlflian moved to sus pend the rules to take np a resolution instructing the Joint Finance Committee to report a special bill to-morrow morning, looking to the reduction of per diem. The motion prevailed and the res olution was adopted. The House was engaged nearly the whole of the session in debate npon the special order of the day—a bill to investigate the affaire of the State,on whioh a debate followed, pending which the Honse adjourned.

JL Pleasant Little story. Two months ago an aged widow in Massachu setts received a telegram that her only son was dying at Lawrence, Kansas. Notwithstanding per extreme age and feeble health, she most see her son. She undertook the journey. The train was delayed. When it arrrived at Utica she was taken violently ilL A yonng physician assisted her to a hotel, and provided everything he could for her coinfort. Her detention by sickness and moderate means wonld not have allowed her to pursue her journey but for the kindness of the attending stranger. He paid her bills, assisted her to the care, and accompa nied her to Buffalo. At parting she requested his address. The other day this stranger wa* seated in his office at Albany. A stranger entered, and after some conversation presented the doctor with a gov ernment bond for $500, as a reward for his kindness to tho old lady, saying: “She was my mother. She died a few days after reaching me, and I recovered. Had it not been for your kindness she wonld have died on the road. 1 am her son, who was sick. I am a banker; bnt money can never repay the debt I owe to you for your generous kindness to my dear, good mother. God bless you!” A Scottish widow in the time of King George was one day in Spring seen by the clerk of her parish crossing the church-yard with a watering-pot and a bundle. “Ah, Mistress Mactavish,” said the clerk, “what's yer business, art’ sio tike gear as that y'are carryin’?" “Ah, weel. Mr. Miclachlan," re plied the widow, “I’m just goin’ to my gudeman’s grave. I've got some hayseeds in my bundle, tne which I'm goin' to sow npon it; and tbe water in the can is just togi’e’em a Spring tike!” “The seeds winn* want the watering,” rejoiced the clerk, “tbey’U Spring finely o’themselves," ‘-That may well be,” re joined the widow; “bnt ye diona ken that my gudeman, as he lay a deeiog, just got me to make promise that I’d never marry again till the grass had grown aboon his grave. And, as I’ve had a gaud offer made me bat yestreen, ye see, 1 dinna tike to break my promise, or to be kept a lone »ilow, as ye see me!” The minister's aide-de-camp looked on the widow indeed with a mirthful expression. “Water him wed, widow,” said tho clerk; “Mactavish aye was droutby!” A Ptucricii. Test or the Naebow Gauge.— The first practical application of the narrow gauge principle in railroad construction, on a plan sufficiently extensive to test satisfactorily the merits of tbe system, is now making in the case of tho Denver and Rio Grande Railroad, now completed and opened for traffic for a dis tance of 76 miles between Denver and Colorado City, in Colorado. Thia section is not yet folly equipped, owing to the delay which has been experienced in obtaining the narrow gauge rolling stock, bnt it will be within a few weeks at the farthest, and the experiment will then be subjected to the test of practical trial. On the results of this trial will probably depend the popular decision in favor of or against the gen- eral adoption of the narrow gauge system.—Iron Age, ICtA. FOR SALE.
