hundred bills have been introduced.—
Out of these several hundred, there are
not more than ad( z ui if that number, of
bills of general interest to the people
of Georgia. The Code comes in (or its
share of tin'cerine. ii many in.-stan res

and in many others to make changes
simply for the sake of doing somethin;
that had better be left undone. The
number of local bills is enormous. In
glancing at the proceedings of the Leg

struck with the trifling insignificance

Here is a bill to change the county linn
to accomodate some man who wishes to
have his residen 'e or bis p.ace changed
from one county nto another; here is
another bill to allow somebody to ped
dle without a license; another to pre
vent fish traps into the waters tributary
to ii uinSwamp : another to prevcnt hunt

relief of the sure! iea of Mr. Smith, who

funds of his county, an 1 stiji another:

Ml L EAO E OF I AIUIS L.l TORS.
Under this heal tue Mr Duffle Jour
nal inis these very sensible remarks
which we commend to our representa
tives in that bo ly.
•'Under the present law members of
the Legislature are allowed twenty-five
cents per mile, mileage, going to and
returning from the capitol. For in
stance, a member from Augusta, going
to Atlanta, a distance of 175 miles,
receives fur that w mice. $-12.75. The
regular fare on railroads, steamboats,
and other public conveyances, is only
about four cents per mile. But we
doubt if there is a single member of
the Legislature who has not a free pass
on the rail run Is, so that his fare costs
him just nothing at all, and his mileage,
which the people have to pay, is just
that much clear. Now, this may be all
right, but it certainly lias the appear
ance of receiving something l'qr nothing.
Instead of this mileage, so-called, why
not require each member to present his
account for actual expenses of his jour
ney, to which add his regular per diem
for the time on the way, an 1 pay him
that and no more. Tills would lie per
fectly fair, and besides it, would be hon
est. We do not believe in reducing the
per diem of members that is low
enough nbw ; but we do think that this
mileage sham should be knocked in the
heal.

Oxi; Idea or Fqvkuty.—lt was
Bulwer who said that in nine cases out
of ten poverty is only an idea. Some
men with ten thousand dollars a year
suffer more want of means than others
with three hundred. The reason is, the
richer man's artificial wants llis in
come is ton thousand, and he suffers
enough from being dunned for unpaid
debts to kill a sensitive man. A man
who earns a dollar a day, and who does
not run in debt, is the happier of the
two. Very few people who have never
been rich will believe this, but it is true.
There are thousands with princely in
comes who never know a moments
peace, because they lived beyond their
means. There is really more happiness
in the world among working people
than among those who are called rich—
always providing that poor folks do not
in smaller way, emulate the prodigality
of their rich brethren. Poverty is sim
ply a question of the good or bad man
agement of money in hand.
llow Advertising Busi
ness.—The man who advertises iiis
business, if what lie offers l'or sale is
honestly what he represents if to he, or
what it ought to he, is constantly assis
ted in his business by those who have
been attracted to him and tested him.
a buyer has read his advertisement, and
gone to his store, or work shop, or
warehouse, or whatever it may he. and
tried what was recoiniuedcd. It has
satisfied him, he is pleased and r oom
inends it to Iris neighbors, who is like
ly to go to the same place and tell iiis
neighbor in turn. And thus little rills
started by his advertisement How in up
on him from all sides, and the current
of his business grows stronger and
wider and more rapid, an l lie prospers
and grows rich, all because to strict at
tention in business he added judicious
advertising. But fur this he might have
lingered on in the community for years
and his business would scarcely have
been heard of.
