About Pointing.
The Capital.
There is probable no city in the
land where tho gentler sex drive so
much and lido so little as in Wash
ington. Our smooth, wide streets,
beautiful country drives and tempt
ing parks account for this healthy out
door life. But one regrets that it is
Confined to wheels and excludes the
nobler and more healthy exorcise on
horseback.
Why this difference was explained
to us by our esteemed friend Mrs.
Switchem.
“The gills,” she said, “would much
prefer tho saddle, but the saddle calls
for a male escort, and this can not be
had. Masculine entertainment of a
better sort is rare at the national cap
ital. By a better sort I moan gentle
men give to the more manly persuits,
that include horesmanship.”
“Well,” wo said “that is easily un
derstood. To indulge in that one
must have tho means to own a horse
and tho leisure to ride. These be
hard times, my friend, and tho beaux
line it difficult enough to keep them
selves without adding tho cost of a
creature possessed of tiio healthiest
appetite—so healthy that ho is said j
to eat his head off twice a year.,”
“But they get up boat clubs and
have time to row.”
“Precisely; half a dozen can club
together and purchase a boat that
eats nothing, nor does it get lame or
suffer from the colic, nor grow pre
maturely old and stiff and spavined.”
“The pole-evil is confined, I sup
pose, tho rowers.”
“Polo-evil ? Don't see the point.
Were yon speaking of tho politicians,
now ?—poll-evil—rather good."
Skulls and sculling have nothing
to do with boats, I suppose.”
“What an enervating effect the Ivid
well Bottoms have on one in this j
warm weather, to be sure.”
“Thanks. Yon may bo sure that,
were it possible, the girls would pre
fer tho saddle to the carriage seat.
But you see it is considered the thing
to drive without an escort, but quite
out of the question to ride alone; one j
must have a male attendant. It’s a
pity, for nothing provokes popping
so much as horseback exercise Even
homely girls come out on the saddle, j
The exercise fetches such a sweet col
or to tiie checks and sparkle in the 1
eyes, and then the sweet scene of pro
tection and ownership comes over the
male creature, that ho cannot help
making love.”
“By Jove, that is true. Pile design
ing little angel should get her subject j
astride a horse, and so promote the 1
love-making up to the boiling point,
when the pop is imminent,and then she
should transfer him to her phaeton.”
“Why the transfer ?”
It is bad to pop on horseback. If
one is rejected lie cannot get away.
And if accepted it is so awkward to
clasp tho beloved one, while tho at
tempt to kiss goes wobbling up and
down all over tho fair countenance,
landing most of the sweet salutation
ou tho unresponsiblo nose.”
“Never thought of that.”
“Few do. Let the angel watch
with care, and when the critical mo
ment appears take tho impatient out
riding in her pheatou; let it be by
moonlight if possible. When the lit
tle love is busy driving the temptation
is great to steal an arm around the j
slender waist and say “Oh ! my dar
ling, life is a desert without”—“Whoa, I
Dick ! how this brute pulls”—“Not j
more, my love, than you are pulling
at my heart. Say yes; say you’ll be j
mine—for life.” “Bless me, Edward,
1 thought I had gone over a stump.
Didn’t we break something ? And so
it goes.”
“How odd you tire, and you poke
fan at the most tender and beautiful
sentiment.”
Indeed Ido not. I tliiuk this is a
most serious subject. I knew a most
promising youth who had his career
utterly blighted through an attempt
to pop on horseback. lie had a high
standing at the bar, but no seat in the
saddle. He fell in love with a charm
ing girl, an. heiress, and they were
wont to ride ont-togetlier through the
wilds of a romantic country. When
the time came he poured out his
heart in burning, eloquent words, and
she, blushing, beautifully and looked
down with bashful, bewitching shy
ness,” said softly that little word that
has mere music in it than all the ope
ras known to man. He dropped the
reins to throw his arms about his love;
the horse started; he lost his seat, and
went down in a sitting position in the
center of a mud-hole that fate, in its
total depravity, ever prepares for such
unfortunates.
“Of course he remounted as best he i
could. His seat was damp and mud
dy, his heart was chilled, for to his
horror be foundjthat his intended was
laughing at him. Cupid ihes from
the arrows of ridicule. He tried to
rally, ho tried to laugh, but ho could
not. He rode home that night with
a cold in his head, a blight at his
heart. Ho took to drink, went to Con
gress and, of course, to the devil.
Let all yotyig men take warning and
never pop on horseback.”
Bishop Qnintard, of Tennessee, on
his visit to West Point, gave the fol-,
lowing incident of his experience at
Perryville: “I stood upon a mound
between tho Confederate artillery,
under command of Captain William
W. Carnes, on my right, and the Un- j
ion guns on by left. Afterward, when
I became bishop of Tennessee, the i
first person I confirmed was Captain f
Carnes, and I ordained Captain Par
sons, who gave up tho military life as
priest of tho Episcopal church.”
Judge Kelley, the father of the j
house of representatives, had a long
interview this week with President
Hayes, and afterwards drove out with
him. The twain discussed at length
tho currency question, but Judge lv.
lias since confessed that ho was not
ingenious enough to find out what
side of that question tho President
favors. No one will bo able to find,
out until after October 0, the date of
the Ohio election.
Tbev have just had some wcatln r
in California. It lasted alxmt a week,
and tho mercury scored from 100 to
108 in Scrnmento, Stockton, Marys
ville and other valley towns. Some
localities in California are every year
ufllicted with a degree of boat that is
probably not excelled ou the contin
ent. At Knight’s ferry, on the Stan
islaus river, in Stanislaus county,
whore a perpendicular cliff of cement
and gravel reflects tho sun's rays back
on the town, the mercury reaches 120
•to 122 degrees in tho shade. In San
Bernardino and the eastern parts of
Los Angeles aud Santa Barbara comi
ties, the mercury once indictated a
temperature of 138 degrees. Cattle
perished in the fields, and birds drop
ped dead from the trees before the
scorching blast. At the saino in the
towns along the old Place holt., from
the Mokelumno river to tho Merced,
oast of Table mountain range, the
temperate was 117 to 11!) degrees in
tho shade. This was in 1859, the hot
test summer remembered in Califor
nia. The present June is the hottest
| known since that year, tho excessive
heat being caused, strangely enough,
Ibv a north wind, aggravated by the
unusual dryness of the country.

were Thos. M. Brumby and James M.

THE
Atlanta Const i tut ion.
tUnder its new management,
Ly The Atlanta Constitution has won
for itself the title of the leading journal of
the South. Its enterprise, during the re
cent election excitement, in sending corre
spondents to different portions of the coun
! try, and its series of special telegrams from
■ Washington while the electoral commission
was engaged in consummating the fraud that
i placed Radicalism once more in power in
our national councils, arc evidences con
spicuous enough to prove that lio expense
i will be spared to make the Constitution not
! only a leader in the discussion of matters of
public concern, but a leader in the dissemi
nation of tlie latest and most reliable news.
There is no better time than now to sub
scribe for a fresh and vigorous newspaper.
Albeit, there has been a quasi, settlement
of one of the most difficult and dangerous
problems of modern federal polities, the
discussions springing therefrom and the re
sults likely to ensue have lost nothing of
their absorbing interest. In addition to this,
the people of Georgia are now called upon to
settle the convention question, and in the
dissension of this important subject (in
which the Constitution will take a leading
part) every Georgian is interested. If a
convention is called its proceedings will
find their earliest and fullest embodiment in
the columns of the Constitution, and this
fact alone will make the paper indispensable
to every citizen of the State. To be brief,
The Atlanta Daily Constitution
will endeavor, by all the means that the
progress of modern journalism has made
possible and necessary, to hold its place as a
leader of Southern opinion and as a pur
veyor of the late st news. Its editorials w ill
be thoughtful, timely and TigbTous— c.dm
and argumentative in their methods and
thoroughly Southern find Democratic in
their sentiments. Its news will be fresh,
reliable and carefully digested. It will be
alert and enterprising, and no expense will
be spared to make it tlio medium of tlie latest
and most important intelligence.
The Weekly Constitution.
Besides embodying everything of interest
in the daily, tho Weekly Constitution will
contain a Department of Agriculture, which
will lie in charge of Mr. Malcolm Johnson,
the well-known Secretary of tlie Georgia
State Agricultural Society. This depart
ment will be made a specialty, and will be
thorough and complete. The farmer will
find in it not only all the current informa
tion on tho subject of agriculture, but timely
suggestions and well-digested advice.
