An old maiden lady, nolorioas
throughout Nether Litsalia for her
strange manner ot liviug, died a few
days ago, at her cuouiry home, si* u-
ated upon the right bank of the
Spree, between Cottbus and Sprem-
berg. During the whole period of
on a large tank standing neat the butl- her residence upon her estate, which
jAaJad inherited at an early age,
rite had not permitted anything to he
planted upon her lands, or any ri -
pain to be effected in her huge man-
rion- . She bad inristed upon leaving
.things *as ihey were’for some forty
'odd years, and the condition ot her
estate and dwelling when inspected
by her legal heirs, is slated to have
been one of inconceivable decay anil
ruin. Thu trees in the park lay rot
ting on tho ground, where they had
been blown down by wind storms ;
the fields were covered by rauk weed
growths ; all the waters were stagnant
end putrid, and the bridges over them
were worm eaten wrecks. In the
garrets were found large quantities of
decayed grain, may basketfuls of rot-
tens eggs, and heaps of decomposed
meat. A thorough search of the
apartments in which the eccentric old
lady bad lived her quaint file ot moul •
dy seclusion was rewarded by the
discovery of much gold and silver
coin, and large sums in paper curren
cy, crumpled tip in corners, mildew
ed, tattered and torn. The estate
itself, an extensive aud valuable one,
is unlenanted, and has been converted
by systematic neglect into a veritable
wilderness, upon which it wiil be nec
essary to expend much before it can
be rendered productive.

WHAT **WU BEX” HAS TO SAY COXCKUN-
IXU THE POLITICAL SITUATION.
^ Atlanta, Ga., July 10th, 188) —
Editors Constitution : In your issue
of yesterday, I noticed that ‘many
Democrats’ suggested the names of
delegates front Fulton county to t he
convention of August 4tli, and my
own name is of the number suggest
ed.
I do not doubt the patriotic motives
of the gentlemen whs have thus used
my name, and 1 concede the right ot
all good Democrats to use my nantu
and demamd my services lit the in
terests of the Democratic party. '
It is now very doubtful whether I
can be in the State on the 4lh of Au
gust. For this, aud other reasons, I
must respectfully insist that my name
he not continued on the ticket. The
ticket is otherwise an excellent one
aud well worthy of unusual support.
While I have been absent trout the
State, aud my fieid of labor has been
national, I have not been inattentive
to the Democratic situation and ten
dency in Georgia, and a sense ot duty
to the party and the people impels
me to say a few words in this connec
tion now.
The Democratic situation in Geor
gia is had—very had, audthe tenden
cy is w otse. H#rious dissensions ex-
tsl^are daily increasing, and if not
arrested will inevitably disrupt the
party.
He is not an intelligent Democrat
who d#ja not see the cause of these
evils, and he is not a true Democrat
who :• unwilling vigorously to apply
the remedy.
Tt.e cause may he expressed in one
word and it is personalism in the par
ly. It is no new distemper in politi
cal organizations. It is easily cured
if taken iu time, and it is certain
death to the party it not taken in
W hat is personalism in a par
IRELAND AND ITS UNION
WITH GREAT BRITAIN.
To look at the Union of Ireland
with the British Nation in 1800, from
an American view it would seem that
there is an open and expansive field
for solid argument, especially inviting
to the argumentative power of the
Senior class ot an American Univer
sity, whose: graduates in times gone
by, have electrified the entire world
u itli the power of true logic and ora
torical grandeur. One o' these mags
nates is in our midst to-day, the lion.
Robert Toombs, whose eloquent logic
and penetrating research held the
Councils of Europe spell-bound with
every articulation of his genius, at a
time when the ears of Christendom
were open to receive the fire of Amer
ican genius and love ot liberty, exer
cised iu defense of local self govern
ment, that priceless getn, which a
mercenary loreign power, wrested
from the people of Ireland, through
bribery and falsehood.
I apologize beforehand for any ap
parent wrong that I may inflict on
any of tbe young gentlen eu who par
ticipated in the debate evening
before last. The attentive audi
ence which were so pleased
at the display of flowery rhet
oric will, I doubt not, agree with nte
that this was the most pleasing feature
of tile debate, as the facts in the mat
ter for argument, remained nndiss
tuibcd—save by one debater, and
than the facts elicited come to light
in a rather superficial manner. De
haters should remember that ‘strong
assertions without proof, declamation
without argument and censures with
out dignity or moderation,’ are apt to
reflect their deductions to liie roof
that conveyed them.

aware that Ireland tor over six cen-
uries, was never governed by its own

enraged, now sprung upon the hoy,
gras[>ed him with his claws and began
to roar frightfully. Tho brave hoy
did not lose his presence of tniud, but
in spite of the most, dreadful pain he
went on continually cutting the ri*

the fortunate result that tbe monster
at lenght drew its last breath and the
luave hoy, although terriblyjmangfed,
got away and could return home to
inform his parent of the event. Tbe

Tbe position of Mandarin is a civil
office of great dignity among the Chi

whom is vested the appointment pow

is profoundly learned.
Dr. Allen is a native of Georgia.
He was botm in Coweta county. He
graduated at Emory College in the
same class with Dr. Atticus Hnygood,
about the year I860* Immediately
niter leaving college he went as mis

years he has done noble and d -voted
work among that people. So familiar

for a number of years he has edited a

It is a significant circumstance that

Mr. Garfield, we ate told, hasa’rec-

no unknown man. He has a long
record He has been a leader among;
the advocates of force bills, suspension,
of habeas corpus, military usurpation,,
and every other means resorted to by
his party to prolong their power.
There has not been a measure tending
to exalt the military power above the
civil power, not a question tending to
create animosity between the sections,
in which Jamei A. Ga-field was not
