Qtyc Constitutionalist 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.
