AUGUSTA, GA..:
Thursday Morning, Nov. 4, 1875.
‘•Till He Come.”
Only a few more burdens must we carry.
In heat and toil, beneath the scorching
sun;
Only a little longer must we tarry,
Only a little longer, “till He come.”
Only a little more of life’s long journey.
Through the word's desert, till the day
Is done,
Only a few more desert scenes of conflict.
Only a few more Marahs, till He come.”
Only a little longer, thinking gladly
Of the uprising of the brighter sun;
Only a little longer, waiting sadly.
In the fast failing twilight, “till He
come.”
Only a few more billows, wildly tossing.
Beating us backward from the longed
for shore;
Only a few more snares our pathway cross
ing.
Then ail the trials of the day are o’er.
So let our eyes be on Him in His gladness
Seeking to serve Him in this day of
grace,
While the thought cheers us In our con
stant sadness,
Boon He will come and meet us face to
face.
CURRENT TOPICS.
The Result in Mississippi,
Since the war, the political history of
Mississippi has been little else than an un
broken chapter of Radical scoundrelism
and knavery. It has been a jubilee of oon
viets and ex-slaves, led by that incarnate
devil, arch-fiend and son-in-law of Beast
Ki’ileb-Adelbebt A mbs. The people
have suffered the agonies of death under
the reign of the vulgar herd. They held
office for the purpose of theft. They stole
everything they could lay their hands on.
Offices there were bestowed upon such men
as fill the jails and penitentiaries of the
world.
At last there has been a change. The
dispatches unerringly indicate that the
Radical party was overwhelmingly de
feated at the election on Tuesday. The
Democrats had but one Congressman.
Now they claim five, or an unbroken dele
gation save one.
L. Q. C. Lamak heads the list. In the
fourth district we notice the election of O.
R. Singleton, who for years before the
war was a member, and has come forth
from his retirement and will again repre
sent the gallant State in the National
Hails. We also see ths name of C. E.
Hookek as among the successful candi
dates for Congress. He is a ready debater
and a brilliant speaker The others are
strangers, no doubt young men who have
come to the surface since the war.
The fight was made square out. It was
between Radicals and Democrats. The
question was put to tho people whether
they would be longer ruled by carpet-bag
thieves or honest Democrats.
Southern Cotton Factories.
In a recent visit to the North, H. I. Kim
ball says "he did not talk with a single
manufacturer who did not admit that it
was impossible for them to compete with
the South is the manufacture of cotton
goods. Thore are not a few men, of large
experience and capital, who are actually to
day discussing the proposition to move
machinery that is now in operation in the
Northern to Southern mills. A close inves
tigation of the subject, in nine cases out of
ten, leads the Northern manufacturer to
see that the real home of cotton manufac
turing is in the South. They are hence
looking eagerly towards the South, espe
cially towards Georgia, and I may say par
ticularly towards Atlanta. It is impossible
to answer all the questions they are ready
to ask. They will listen by the hour to in
formation about the South.”
All but Atlanta. What is the use of peo
ple goihj; there to put up factories to be
run by steam, when they can come to Au
gusta and find the greatest abundance of
water power cheap as dirt.
J. Wilkes Booth.
Just before firing the fatal shot that
proved the death of Mr. Lincoln, and af
terwards resulted in his own tragic end,
Booth addressed the following familiar
lines from Spenoeb’s Fairy Queen to his
lady love:
“ Tell me not chaste one I am unkind,
If from thy sweet embrace
To war and arms I fly.
True, anew mistress now I seek,
The first foe iu the field,
And with a stronger faith embrace
A sword, a horse, a shield.
*******
I could not love thee near so much
Loved I not honor more.”
It is said this lady is still single and In
mourning, and on pleasant afternoons can
be seen closely veiled promenading Penn
sylvania avenue.— Exchange.
It is from a poem entitled “ To Lucasta.”
[The above quotation is sadly mutilated,
and Spenceb is not the author.]
The Death of James R. Walker.
Some ten years ago the writer most
vividly remembers attending a wedding in
Macon, of James R. Walkek and Miss
Lou, daughter of ex-Governor Towns. The
wedding passed for brilliant in the place
and among its people. The two hundred
and fifty guests present most heartily
joined in wishes of God speed to the then
happy couple. We notice that Walker
was found dead in his bed at an Atlanta
Hotel the other day.
The Democrats of Ohio stood upon a
soft money platform which broke through.
And the Democrats of New York stood
upon a hard money platform which also
broke through. As platforms don’t suit
them they had better stand flatfooted upon
the ground.
lowa’s Lady Lawyer.
The Dubuque Herald of the 21st
says ; Mrs. J. Ellen Foster was ad
mitted to the practice of law in the Su
preme Court of lowa, yesterday—the
first honor of the kind accorded to a
lady in the State. Mrs. Foster, we be
lieve, acquired her legal education in
the office of her husband, who is also
a member of the Clinton (Iowa) bar,
and both are partners in the firm of
Foster & Rice, of that city.
The lady’s debut upon the legal
stage was a creditable one, she appear
ing as counsel for the defendant in the
ease of Jacob Oswald vs. Walter I.
Hayes. It was the opinion of the judges
and attorneys in court yesterday, that
the Judge’s case would be well taken
care of. Certainly the gentle at
torney presented her argument in
a clear, concise and able manner,
showing herself mistress of the situa
tion in all its legal bearings, and
making very favorable Impression In
the court-room. She is quite pre
possessing in appearance, both in fea
ture, form, and dress. The fair law
yer wore a rich black silk, without or
namentation or furbelows, overskirt or
anything else on the demi train, which
was gracefully caught up ’en panier,
and thus the dreary plainless
was relieved. A plain black silk hat,
enlivened with some bright flowers, a
velvet sacque, with a trimming of
guipure lace, aud a pink silk neck-tie
completed the lady’s costume. Her
manner upon the platform was digni
fied, easy, and lady-like, and so far as
ail we have mentioned, the effects were
rather pleasing, and the Dubuque bar Is
disposed to take quite kindly to law
yers of the female persuasion.
