The old gentleman was halted in tho
midst of a grandiloquent sentonoo, and
requested to fork over oithor cash or

He said be had neither tho one or tbo

“Bui,” interposed this lordly million

Whereupon ho produced o little paper

writer to be odd shirt buttons, detached

rings and odds and ends, not worth a
copper.
The lynx-eyed conductor evidently was
ot the same opinion, for he shook his
head and pasted on.
The old man resumed with great ve-
beuiecce, anathematizing tho local and
book-keeper of tho Tklxcieaph and

bar, and declaring that ho was resolved
to uave“iii*own," which meant $100,000

just when be was

the inexorable conductor appeared again,
and told him to “get up and got.”
Tho poor old fellow wilted without a
emglo remonstrance, and sadly and sym-
patbiziogly the writer assisted him to
alight on the dark wayside, teadorly
handing him his thread-bare carpet sack,
containing these precious relics ho had
proffered aa security to tho railway offi

he would not attempt to wAlk upon the

MILLIDOBVILUC.
Just as the gray streaks of morn began
to illumine tho Eastern horizon, and tho
first blush of the “rosy-fiugered Aurora
tinted the verdant landscape, tho train
h»lted at the station nearest the dear and
tune honored old capital of Georgia.
Here the
BALDWIN BLUBS-
appeared in serried rank under their gal-
l*ot Captain, the veteran Uerty, and
■arching by the Up of the drum, entered
the cart.
They turned out well, and were as sol-
dierly and gallant a company as ever
stormed the “imminent deadly breach”
or “ore the colors of glorious old Georgia
in the thickest of tho fray.
Many noble todies also from the
, “OLD CAPJT.lt,"

tatives. Mr. Speer is still the popular
editor of tbo Old Capital.
AUGUSTA,
At ten a. m. the loitering train drew np
in tbo oar shed and everybody “tumbled
ont” anxions for a wash and loo water.
The Augusta military were thero in citi
zens dre.s and extended a warm greeting
to their guests. They formed in line un
der commend of Captain CUtk, and es
corted the ‘‘Bine.” to the
HAIL OP THE “HUSSARS.”
There, Lientenaut C. H. Cohen, a mem-
bor of tbe kutlalion staff, delivered a grace
ful nddros, of weloome, which was re
sponded to by Mr. F. G. Da Bignon, of
the “Bines." This gentleman is a speak
er of rare ercellonoo and eloqnenoo, and
most ft-liriloQtJy did he discharge the dnty
assigned him. Then followed “tho feast
of roason uud flow of sont," and in the
ices and delicions refreshments served
to them in nnslinted abundance tho trav-
olets soon forgot all their disoomforts
on tho rail.” At 12:30 p. tu. another
wdcomo awaited thorn in tho halt of the
CLINCH SIPLES,
Captain Ford, whloh was fatly tho cqnal
of tho other. Tho gallant Captain, tu a
few well ohoaen words, extendod the hos
pitalities of his renowned corps to their
military and visiting guests with the true
impressment ot a cultivated gentleman and
soldier.
On tho patt of the ‘‘Bines” Captain
Hetty introdncod Mr. Da Bignon again
as thoir spokesman. That versatilo sol
dier, not a whit exhausted or dismayed,
onoo moro showed himself equal to this
or a half dozen similar emergonoios, and
ropliod with singular taste and effect. A
happy fusion or Millodgevllle and An-
gustu braves thou onBaod, and “wino
and wassail,” punch and lemonade, was
tho order of the day. Yet all Imbibed
discreetly, and there was no exoess. Tho
CLINCH RIFLES
is probably one of tho lineBt military or
ganisations in the Union. Its halt is
decorated with many interesting insignia
of tho history of tho company. It will
bo remembered that this corps represent
ed Georgia at tbo Centennial, in tho mil
itary pageant which illustrated the “Old
Thirteen.” Tho splendid flag of heavy
silk voted by tho State (and, by tho way,
her solo contribution to tho ouo hundredth
anniversary of tho life of tho nation)
hangs conspicuously upon tho wal's. dido
by side with tho sauia is tho
following legend:
“May, 18CI—We sent you to raest our
countrymen, alas! then our foes."
“July, 1876—Again we send yon to meet
our countrymon. Oh, happy ebango!
Now orr brethren."
What could bo more apposite and
beautiful ?
Tho “Bluos" thou returned to the
Gl.ibo Hotel, one of the best tu tho State,
and all day long wero the rocipionts of
unnumbered courtesies and attentions
from the hospitablo citizens of Augusta.
AN AFFAIR OF DONOR.
Every body is greatly oxurcised just
now with a voritable duel which took
place this morning, on tho Carolina side,
at
SAND BAR FERRY.
The principals and seconds are all Mi-
oonianR, and belong to the “upper ten"
in tho society of yom city. The princi
pals wore R. S. Saulsbnry and J. S. Iver
son. Tho seconds nlso wero two well-
known and higbly-esteemod young gen
tlemen, whoso names it is unnecessary to
parade.
Tho belligerents “meant business,"
and repaired to the Held one by one—not
ovon tbo surgeon, who though stationed
within call, was allowed to bo present.
They met at 9a. in., and tho ground be
ing measured off, and all the prelimina
ries gone through with, after unavailing
attempts at pacification, rliu parties con
fronted each other,
PISTOL IN HAND.
Both wero cool and self-possessed, and
both fired almost simnltanoonBly when
the word was given between one and two.
Neither fell, and happily by the interposi
tion of tbo soooDds tho affair was honor
ably adjusted, each antagonist advancing
half way and stinking hands.
Tho who's meeting was aonducted ac
cording to tho strictest letter of tho
“codo,” and wo oongratnlate nil oonoern-
ed that it terminated without any effusion
of blood.
Tho parti. r. are exceedingly reticent,
and no reliable clue has transpired aa to
the causes of the hostile rencontre. We
give the pleasing assurance, however, to
tho public that everything is non “lovely”
and peaceful between them, as we saw
and accosted both principals and seconds
at one of the tables of the Globe Hotel,
where they woto hobnobing together and
eating wiih the appetites of men who ex
pected to live and enjoy life,
Wbon will this absurd, so-called code
of honor, which bos not a single element
of justice connected with it, bo finally
abolished ? Ia it fair for a man who has
never handled a sword or fired a pistol to
be pitted against some “ne’er do well”
expert who bus been trained to do noth
ing else? Ia it right that a man of
family should meet an antagonist who
has neither wife or child to bind him to
earth f Is it any satisfaction to be shot
secundem artem. after sustaining a gross
insult? We trow not.
How much better to seek to live at
peace and be conrteona to all men. and
when in this world of strife and trouble
antagonisms arise, after the argument is
exhausted and nothing can be done,
then pitch in and whip the man who h-s
injured you, or at least die yams. Don'
kilt him in cold blood. H. H. J.
