Clljc Constitutionalist
AUGUSTA, OA.:
Saturday Morning, November 20,1875.
Betrayed.
BY M. M. STACY.
A cry of woe rang out—
A shriek, a gaping moan;
The angels only heard—
Poor outcast, poor unknown!
Mad thoughts had crazed her brain;
Oh, what was life to her?
A plunge—the waters closed—
No farther sign or stir.
Next day there drifted in
A corpse, so fresh, so fair,
With dainty brow and chin,
And silken sheen of hair.
No trace of sin or woe
Upon the marble cheek;
But calm and still she lay,
In youthful beauty meek.
And ’mid the wondering throng
That gathered in mute dismay,
One face all sudden paled
To hues of ashen gray.
Alas! that head had lain
His faithless heart above,
With all of woman’s trust,
All her undying love.
Sweet eyes in his had looked,
Soul-full of tender light—
Soft lips to his been pressed,
Untouched by care or blight.
She was a winsome thing,
With girlish, loving ways—
But yet he tired at last.
Ah! then, her grieved amaze!
She spake no word, but swift
Her color came and went—
Her heart throbbed wild, as if
With mortal anguish rent.
Then from his sight she fled,
To hide her woe ajid pain;
He cared not—and yet now
He meets her once again.
A story old, yet new—
A soul too finely strung,
A brain with anguish crazed,
A heart with falsehood wrung—
A blighted life —a death
Of mingled woe and shame;
A corpse—a bui ial rude—
A maiden’s tarnished name,
And thus life’s drama ends;
She loved, she was betrayed;
What else but death remaiued
For broken-hearted maid?
Will not the God of Love,
Who bade this mortal live,
More merciful tliau man,
Her frailties all forgive?
The Financial Problem.
[New York Sun.l
He didn’t look fike a man who had
been turning financial problems over
and over in his mind for fifty years;
but yet, you can’t always correctly
judge a man by his looks.
He walked up and down the depot
platform for a time, and then suddenly
rushing at an old man who was lean
ing against the wall and half asleep,
he exclaimed :
“What about inflation?”
“Why! ha, ah! I thought you were
going to strike me!” replied the old
man, as he straigtened up.
“Shall we inflate the currency?” de
manded the financier, in earnest tones.
“You may for all I care !” bluntly re
plied ihe old mah; “all I want is to get
my baggage aboard the Montreal train
all right.”
“Or, shall we contract the currency?”
asked the financier, backing up to the
stove.
“ I don’t care a d—n what you do
with it, so that I strike that train ! ”
growled the old man, as he leaned back
against the wall.
“ This question of finance is one of
the greatest in the world,” continued
the financier, “ and I demand that you
exhibit an interest in it.”
“ I’ll be switched if I will! ” growled
the old man, his eyes half shut.
“ This bit of green paper,” continued
the financier, taking a doliar bill from
his vest pocket, “ is supposed to repre
sent one hundred cents. Answer me,
if it does ? ”
“ Oh, lemme alone ! ” growled the old
mao, his head nodding and his eyes
shut.
“If I owe you one dollar, I can pay
you off with this bit of paper ; but
would I be paying you eighty, ninety,
or one hundred cents ? ”
“ You —don’t—owe —me —anything 1”
sighed the old man, now almost dream
ing-
“ Gold is money and greenbacks are
money,” continued the stranger;
“but if you have gold you would not
exchange it for my greenbacks. And
yet why not ?”
The old man was now asleep, and
didn’t hear.
“ And yet why not ?” asked the finan
cier once agaiD.
The old man’s eyes never opened.
“ And yet why not ?”
The old man snored a half snore.
“ And yet why not ?” exclaimed the
financier, giviDg the sleeping man a
gentle kick on the shin.
“ Whoa! dumit to thunder ! who did
that ?” yelled the old man as he leaped
up.
“ And yet why not ? coolly inquired
the financier.
“ Why not what ?”
“If we inflate the currency, that is,
increase it, if we add millions of paper
dollars to the millions already afloat,
what must be the effect ?”
“I’ll effect you if you kick me
again !” roared the old man, thorough
ly aroused.
‘On the other hand,” coolly con
tinued the financier, “if we contract
the currency, diminish the amount
afloat, what result will follow ?”
“What do I care? What aro you
talking finance to me about ? I believe
you are a pickpocket, and I’ll knock
your head off if you don’t clear out.”
“Something must be done, but what
shall we do ?” continued the financier
in earnest tones. “The Government
says that this bit of paper is a dollar;
yet it is only eighty-eight, ninety or
ninety-two cents when brought in con
tact with a gold dollar. Is it because
of ”
“Lemrne alone, I say,” shouted the
old man. “What in Texas do I care
about your financial talk ?”
“The Government says that this dol
lar bill is one dollar,” said the financier,
“and yet it refuses to give me a dollar
in gold for it. Why ?”
“That’s why!” ejaculated the old
man, as he struck a straight blow from
the shoulder.
“We must either contract or ex
pand,” replied the financier, as he took
the old man by the throat and backed
him against the wall; “we must know
that our money is worthless or worth
one hundred cents on the dollar!”
“Let me go! There—ha !—ugh !”
And the old man kicked like a mule.
“And until that period arrives,” re
plied the financier, crowding the old
man into a corner and jamming him
hard, “no capitalist will feel like with
drawing his money from the banks and
risking it in even legitimate specula
tion.”
“Help ! Police!” called the old man.
“Let Congress settle this question,”
the financier was saying, when an officer
collared him and walked him away.
As he passed out of the depot he went
on :
“Whether we are to have hard money
or inflation, and confidence will be at
once restored and—”
But he had turned the corner.
“Hang my buttons I” said the old
man, as he wiped his face, “what do I
know about conflation or distraction,
and what’ll the gold woman say when
she sees me all pounded up this way?”

The Great Events Of The Coming
Year.
NO man or family should be without a
newspaper. It is the most intelligent
and entertaining visitor to any household,
and is the best of ail educators. Besides
this admitted fact, there are now addi
tioifel reasons for subscribing to a good
newspaper. Perhaps no year of the last
half century furnished a greater combina
tion of important and thrilling events than
will the year approaching. The Presidential
contest, the Gubernatorial election, the
Centennial and other great events trans
pire.
As in the past, so in the future.

The work originally published under the
title of THE NEW AMERICAN CYCLO
PAEDIA was completed in 1863, since which
time, the wide circulation Jvhich it has at
tained in all parts of the loited States, and
the signal developments qhich has taken
place in every branch of science, literature
and art, have induced |be editors and
üblishers to submit to an axact and thoro

THE AMERICAN C\|GLOP£DIA.
Within the last ten yearn the progress of
discovery in every department of knowl
edge has made anew workfof reference an
imperative want. |
The movement of political affairs has
kept pace with the discoveries of science,
and their fruitful application to the indus
trial and useful arts, and jthe convenience
and refinement of social life. Great wars
and consequent revolution}, have occurred,
involving national changes of peculiar
moment. Ihe civil war or our own coun

volume of the old work appeared,
has happily been ended, and a
new course of commercial and in
dustrial activity has be pa commenced.

View a multitude of new mu a, whose names
are in every one’s mouth, and of whose
lives every one is curious to know the par

and important sieges maintained, of which
the details are as yet preserved only in the
newspapers or in the transient publications
of the day, but which ought now to take
their place in
PERMANENT AND AUTHENTIC HISTORY.
In preparing the present edition for the
press, it has accordingly Keen the aim of
the editors to bring down the information
to the latest possible dates, and to furnish
an accurate account of tua most recent
discoveries in science, of every fresh pro
duction in literature, and of the newest
inventions in the practical arts, as well as
to give a succinct and original record of
of the progress of
POLITICAL AND HISTORICAL EVENTS.
The work has been begun after long and
careful preliminary labor, and with the
most ample resources for carrying it on
to a successful torminatida.
None of the original stereotype plates
have been used, but every page has been

THE ILLUSTRATIONS,
Which are introduced for the first time in
the present edition, have seen added not
for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explana

branches of science and of natural history,

THE cotton is spread on this machine from the bale, and Is m''o Into a very even
lap, at the rate of 300 to 400 pounds per hour. The laps are then finished on a
TWO-BEATER LAPPER,
WITH
KITSON’S PATENT EVENER
Attahed, and owing to roccent improvements in this Evener, the laps when ready for
the card, only varies one quarter of an ounce to the yard. The cost of picking by this
system is only about one mill per pound on the cloth produced, and the picker house Is
safer from Are than tho card ro nn.
jesrThere is ab o a great saving of room and power over the old system.
These Machines may be seen at the mills of tne Augusta Factory, Langley Manufac
turing Company, and at the best nuns at Lowell, Lawrence, Fall River, Manchester
Lewiston. Providence, Richmond, Baltimore,etc., otc.
The following are a lew among many testimonials whicn we nave received:

Langley, S. 0., April 14, 1873. )
The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen. [ have been running your system of Compound Opener Lappei'S and
Finisher Lappers, witn Eveners, for more than two voars naff at the Cotton Mill of tm*
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of
any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, we have not weighed a pound
of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the gi’eatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its secur ty against lire.
Yours, Ac., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent.
