A denirabld domestic bird—A duck of a wife. The happy planter—A man burying his wife. The way to get n good wife—G*.t a good girl, and go to the parkin. Patterson, N. J.. has one hundred and fifty B>x widows. What, is th# greatest curiosity in the world ? A woman’s. A woman's heart is like a fiddle; it re quires a bow to play upon it. A heart is like an omnibus—it always ha« room for one more. “A kiss,” says a French lady, “costs less and gratifies more than any thing else in existence.” The man who is fond of pies and pud dings. places himself fearfully in the power of his wife. A country girl speakine of a dance she had attpnde I, said: “The dancin' was nothin', hut the huggin'. was heavenly.” The “new India-rnbher neck and bust” is probably made of that material because all finger marks can be promptly erased. Prentice says that man was the chief consideration at creation. Woman was only a “side issue.” A widower was recently rejected hv a damsel who didn’t want affections that had been “warmed over.” A romantic young man says that a wo man’s heart is like the moon—it ehanges continually, but always has a man in it. A lady wants to know why Hymen is represented with a torch ? Perhaps i» is to throw a light upon those little imperfections love is nlind to. Pious. A Kan«a« woman weeklv flagel lates her husband, and then locks horsalf in the parlor, and sings “Nearer, my God, to Thee.” O iver Wpndell Holmes says that widows who cry easy are first to marrv again. There is nothing like wet weather for trans planting. In the life of every woman there are two epochs at which she is willing to tell her age when she is sixteen and when she is one hundred. Mr Groelpv says that ♦he solution of the question whether woman is equal to man depends upon who the woman is and who the man is. It is a envious fact sav *nme entomolog ists. that it is only the female mo-quito that torment*’ us An old bachelor says it. is not at all ‘curious ” A Newark man is getting very suspicious of his w;te, because she urges him to apply f-r w -rk at the n’tro-glycerine factory, which has exploded twice recently. O and Demosthenes Wf * s right when he said that »he meu*iiir‘s which a statesman had mediated for a year m ght be overturned h’s a worn m in a night. Tlie l uiies have found a capital excuse for tight lacing. They sav that “no waste” sh *u!d he the mot.o of every good house keeper. At fifteen, girls think that they are per fect. at twenty they believe it a fact, at thirty they have some d* uhts. an 1 at forty they have no faith in anything of the sort A yo'iing lndv who rebuked hv her nrvther f<'r kts*intj her intended, justjfiid rite act bv quoting the passage: ‘‘Whatso ever ye would that men should d>» ui»to you. do you even go to them. Brown, I have been to learn how to tell fortunes ” »«<d a young: fellow to a brisk brunette : “Juffive me vour hand, if you please“Lai Mr. White, how sudden you are Weil, g;o ask pa!” Women are said to have stronger attach ments than men. It is evinced in little things. A man is often attached to an old hat ; hut did v >u ever know a woman hav ing an attachment for an old bonnet. “Soeaking of shaving.” said a pretty girl to an obdurate old bachelor, “I should think that a pair of handsome eves would be the best mirror to shave hy.” ‘‘Yes* many a poor lellow has been shaved by them.” the wretch replied. A sportive young lady says: “If the course of true love does never run smooth, why don't they water it, and roll it regu larly so many hours a day, until they get the course so smooth that any donkey can run upon it?” A woman is like ivy —the more you are ruined, the closer she clings to you A vile old bachelor adds: “Ivy is like a wo* man—the more it clings to you, the more you are ruined.” Poor rule that won't work both wayß. A Cincinnati lady, who has lost eight husbands already, don’t get discouraged very easy, as she has got another p<*or devil on a string, and says she can have another job for the undertaker in less than a year. There is nothing like women to persevere. A foolish old bachelor says: “Young men, keep clear of calico if you want to do anything great. Calico is a beautiful in stitution. A pair of sweet lips, a pink waist, and the pressure of a delicate hand, will do as much to unhinge a man as the measles and the doctor’s bill to boot. The wives of men of sentiment are not alwavs the most appreciative of women. Jean Paul represents Siebeokas as reading one of bis beautiful imaginings to bis wife, who listened with eyelids cast down and hated breadth. As he closed, the sharer of his joys beamed f'W’h wirh. * 9 , n ’t pot on y<»ur left smoking tomorrow, and ‘av, I mu-t mend that hole in it.' So, when Sir Walter and Lady Sett were rambling «b u» 'heir estate, and erne upon some playful lambs frisking in a meadow. “Aft,” said Sir Walter. “ 'ti» no wonder that poets, from the earliest ages h„ve made the lamb the emb’em of pence and inno cence ” ‘ Tl»ev are indeed delightful ani mals,” answered Der Ladyship, ‘especially with mint sauce. ” Th* * 1 ion Chtkch in Amfrica— Am Efi#c pal Monastery—St John Societt —Revival or an Ancient System.-- An Episcopal monastery is among the signs of progress in the direction of what is known as the High Church in this country. Ir is comparatively anew movement in the En glish Church, where, under the control of the Ox ord reformists, it is regarded at the same time as a work of progression and a return to th« custom- of aote-refi ru ati <o times. Th re is already a monastery of the kind at Ox<ord, from which ’he pres ent movement in this country emanates. Jr deed, the reverend gentleman. Mr. Ben son, who t yrith a number of his brethren, has come to this country for the purpose of introducing the monastic system among Protestants, is the founder of the the insti totion at Oxford. Associated with hiro are severil American Episc pal clergymen, of Maryland,Connecticut and elsewhere. They distinguished themselves like the Jesuits, by a name which is design and to mark the unity of their order. They are culled the Society of St. John the Evangelist. They »ake upon thereselve®, after the manner &♦ Jesuit and Roman Catholic monachism, vows of poverty, chastity and celibacy. Thpy have for some time contemplated the establishment of their order in America, and have in view, ir. is said, two principal monasteries in New York and Boston, and an extension of the ystem in due time to other parts of the eountiy; and they are supposed to have ample funds for an effi cient beginning ~f (he-undertaking. Beside the priesis, the design contemplates t!ie co operation of lay brethren, and even sisters, who all take »he same vows. Father Ben son is the Superior and the “monks” who are already enlisted as his coadjutors are described as being eloquent, able, zealous and energetic men ; and their eb'ef mission, it is presumed, will he, where it is most needed, among the poor. It will be curi ous if the monastic system, alter being sup pressed by law in France and Spain, and generally in Europe, ehould be revived in this country. — World The Remkf Law —There seems to be much diversity in the opinions of our Su perior Court Judges a* to the constitution ality of the act to extend the iien of sei» ff and recoupment as against d“bts contracted prior to June, 1865, &c., commonly known as the relief law. Judge -John L Hopkins, of the Atlanta Circuit, has held the act unc nstitutional, which Judges liar* red and Johnson have pr *n**unced the other way. We copy from the Dawson Journal the main points of Judge Harrell’s decision a-* delivered in the ease of Jones vs Lee, tried at the iast term of Stewart Superior C *urt : 1 While it is true that the Legislature has no power under the Constitution to impair the obligation of contracts, or to Destroy the remedy tor their enforcement, it is equally true, that it does have th power to change, niter, modiiy. and rvpn ru arm* x conditions precedent to the use «»f the remedies pre*cribed by law for the enforce mens of contracts 2 That this power has been exercised by the Legislature from the foundation of the Government, without que?*tion, to wit: by r quiring the phiinuftn to p>y cost in ad vance, to make certain affidavits, as in bail cases, attachments, etc , and by imposing conditions as to time, as statutes of limita tion. 3 That the provisions of the relief act of 1870, in lequiring plaintiff- to sign an affi davit that all legal taxes have been paid upon the debts they seek t > collect, before thev are entitled to use the remedies pre scribed hv law for their collection, is only the exercise of this power, and and es not impair the obligation of contracts, or de stroy the remedy. 4 And considering the reciprocal duties of Government and citizen, it is not unjust, inequitable or unconstitutional for the Legislature to require the citizen to fulfil his obligation to the Governm nt by the payment of all l»»gal taxes, before he is entitled t«> use the remedies provided by the Government for the enforcement ot his pri vate rights, especially the taxes due upon the very contract he seeks to enforce by reme ies provided hv la«*. B y Love. —One of the queerest and funniest things to think of in after life, ia boy love. No sooner does a hoy acquire a tolerable stature than he logins to imagine himself a man, and io >pe manish wavs. .«e casts sly glances at all the tali girls e may meet, In comes a regular attend ant at church, carries a cane, h< Ids his head erect, struts a lit le in his walk. Pres ently and very R<>on, he falls in ove; yes, falls is the pr per word, because it best indicates his happv delirious self-abase ment. He lives now in fgiry regi >n, how ever, with it. He perfumes his hair with fragrant oils, scatters essence **ver hand kerchiefs and desperately shaves and an noints for a beard. He quotes poetry in which “love,” and “dove,” “heart,” and “dart,” peculiarly predominate; and he plunges deeper into the delicious laby rinth. fancies filled with the divine afflatus, and suddenly breaks into a scarlet rash— or rhyme. He feeds upon the looks "f bis beloved; ia raised to the seventh heaven if she speaks a pleasant word; is betrayed into the most astonishing ecstacies by a smile; and is plunged into gloomi-s* re gions of misanthropy bv a frown. He be lieves himself the most devoted lover in the world There never was such another There never will be. He is the one idolater 1 Wealth I—he despises the grov eling thought.

Specie Payment —;N*na «>r Trumbull, in a speech at Chicago, this week, advocated a sneedv return to specie payments, and presented two methods hy which, he said, such a result could be reached without contraction : 1 He would c mpel the national hanks to hold in reserve the coin paid them for interest on their bonds, and he would ad* va’ ce the value of treasury notes hv making tnem receivable for two thirds of the import duties, and destroy the notes when received, i 2. The hanks are paid six per cent, in* I terest on their bonds, and it wou and take about six vears for them To accumulate coin enough from this source to commence re demption in hard money.

F. Stephenson, of Hall county, in a communication to tb# Gainesville Air Line Eagle, fays ; “We are glad to see in the Northern and European papers, that much excitement nrevails on the subject of South African diamonds, which are now being found over a space of 1.0 0 square miles, of great value. This will re-act on our section, which, from every geological indication, and its peculiar mineralogy, will ultimate • v—whenever developed, yield more and finer ones than 8 <uth America or Africa. Our opinion is pred cate*! on the fact of over forty having been picked up by the g**id washers in every deposit m-ne from Hall county, Georgia, for six hundred miles, to Virginia, some of which were of mu<*h greater value than any yet found in Africa. All we want is a little capital, only SI,OOO nr $2 000. to develop ihe fact again, and draw the attention of capitalists tn the sub ject, who can introduce diamond miners wk i understand washing for them By thi« c mrse, I have no hesitancy in saving, that in six months the must brilliant suc cess would at’end the eyneriment.

A Masonic Product in Tennessee.—ln Tennessee the Masonic frate.nitv have pro jected a novel plan for taking care of the widows and orphans of deceased brother* of the ‘mystic tie.' In each grand division of the State a thousand or more acres of land are to be acquired by gift or purchase, and this land will he co' up into small locs of one or two acres*, with a small cottage on each lot. A p ution of tbe !»'-d will be re served for a school bouse ij church, thus making the locality awn of community by iisplf In most cases there wil* be children old enough to care f r the lad, raising vegetables and fruits for the market, and any deficiency of food and raiment will he supplied from the beuevoleni fund f the grand division. The seventy-two Masonic lodges of .the Stae have already raised eighty tbogenod dollars towards the object to be accomplished, and by another year wili have raised the amount desired, before making a practical leal of the pro ject. A Quadrill.—lt is described thus by • voting man who tried it: “We both bowed to both of as snd then the other, then the diddle toned snd the thing started.

Railway Signals. —The following rail way signals are given in the American Ar~ tiz<n, and it may he well for eV TV traveller by railway to know them : Onfi whistle signifies “Down brakes." Two whistles, ‘ Off brakes " Three whis tles, * Back up ” Continuous whistles, “Danger." A raoid ucoeesion of short whittles is the “Cattle Alarm " A sweep ing parting of hands on level of the eyes is a signal t" “On ahead." A downward mo tion of the hand, with extended arms, signifies “stop." A beckoning motion of one hand means “Back." At night, when a lantern is raised and lowered vertically, it is a signal for “Starting?" when swung at right angles or across the track, “Stop;" swung in a circle, “B»ek the train." A red flag waved upon the track indicates “Danger;" hoisted at a station, it is a sig nal for a train to “Stop ;" stuck up by the roadside, it is a signal of danger on the train ahead; carried unfurled upon a locomotive, it signifies * Engine following," and gives warning that another {special) engine or train will soon come along on the same track. To be Th doht f bt Planters —Our planting frinnds should duly consider the importance of sowing down at once a largo area of land in small grain. The crisis eminently demands it. The thing should be thought of—and that is the neaessity of raising tmgs and other stocK. ine or buying meat at fp>rn 2*' to 300., with cotton and »wri to 10 to 15c., is preposterous. The pmc edmg will ruin any section. Hogs can be gr .wn here at no very great expense, hi nearly every county in Georgia and Ala bama, timre are tine summer ranges for stock Os course in order to keep your hogs, goats, sheep and cattle in winter, you will be compelled to increase your grain and lessen your cotton crops ; but no one for a moment should hesitate to do this. If our formers will at once resort to the policy of making their own section self-sustaining, th.*y will find that a half crop of cotton will yield as much clear money as a whole one, while »he S -uth will cease to be drained to support the West.— Columbus Enquirer. The Leaders of the Republican Party. —There is nothing more significant of the impending dissolution of this organization, than the fact that in almost every case those who have the control of the party organiza tion. are men who where opposed to the principles upon which the party was found ed. The events that are daily transpiring in political circles furnish a complete confirm ation of this statement. The men who bad control of Buchanan's administration are now geoerally running the Republican party. While this is true, old and tried veterans of that party are leaving the cor rupt and rotten organization and joining the Dt-mocracy- Under this system of exchange the Republicans a»e getting the office-seek ers, and the Jossils. while the Democrats are getting live, honest, active men, who see that the only chance for the people is to fight the great battle of popular rights under the benner of Democracy.— Fort Scott Democrat.
