• Hinton, Jeeritfs Middlebrook :
Gentlemen :—Youri letter of gist
with notice of my unanimous nomina
tion by the Democratic convention of
tbe 27tii district as a candidate for
senator, has beeu received. This
mark of preference and confidence
places me under renewed obligations
to a generous constituency, and con
strains acceptance of the nomination.
The Democratic party has adminis
tered the Slate government since the
close of the year 1871. Every intels
ligent observer must recognize, the.
improvement in publjc.affairs, during
this period. The finances of the State,
from a condition of disorder verging
upon bankruptcy, have been improved
until the credit of Georgia is equal to
that of any State in the Union. A
convention of the people has remodel
led the constitution, providing addi'
tioioal guarati teas fojr all owing rights,
_ an^n^^fegdw4f«fe|jS|t’dyiilvs,
” which 8m eontmuMly springing triton
tho development of tbe couutry. The
statute law has been adjusted in a
large.measure to the changes in the
fundamental law. Eiporience doubt
less has .developed defects yand mis
takes, in the process of- adjustment,
but these can be remedied. Our sys
tem oftaxation, never perfect and most
difficult lo adjust, has been Tendered
nearly uniform ; many gross inequali
ties have been abolished, and taxes in
Georgia, arc now imposed with a near
er approach to equality and justice,
than in the past. Tbe result' of this
improvement in the system of taxa
tion, accompanied 'by gradual reduc
tions in publio expenditure, has been
a decided reduction in the amount of
the publio debt, and in the rate of
taxation. There is no reason why
further reductions in the tax rate
may not be made. It will be my ear
nest endeavor, if elected to thq Sen
ate, to contribute to this refu't, aud
iu every respect to faithfully serve
the commonwealth.
A resolution of tbe convention,' iu
substance recommending the election
of Hon. JosephE.'Brown to the Uui-
ted States Senate, merits respectful
attention. . In matters ofpublic
trust, I have always sought tw wore-
sent rightly my constituency. The

A couple of weeks ago a little wo
man and two children made their ap-
peamtee «£ the, Grand Central, in
TqjMjife City,Lake Bigler.: The worn an
wtut phlolyaltessed and so'were' both
of her children. They were not tskep
much notice of, and no oue cared to
make tlroacqaaintanco of-the modest
little lady iu her plain clothes, Then
the woman, who saw herself snubbed
everyday, got. her dander up aud
sent down to San Francisco for the
balance of ber clothes and likewise
the, children's. Thev came. Next
morning she appeared at the break
fast table with* toilet from Worth,
and her.ciamonds dazzled everybody.
Oh, good morning, .Mrs. Smith*'
came from lH sides.
But this was only ■ the beginning of
the tffilet boom. At lunch she was
simply magnificent, and at dinner
overpowering. She had nine Saratov
ga trunks to draw from, and her little
daughter's evening dress created a
regular furore. Now came her turn
to put on airs. She simply treated
everybody with the coolest kind of
politeness. Of course she was civil,
but didn’t overdo cordiality to any
extent After overwhelming the place
a few days with an avalanche of style,
she sent them back to San Francisco
and resumed her plain $25 suit.

A SLIGHT MISTAKE.
Russian newspapers call attention
to the ravages inflicted in the South-,
ern provinces by the beetle called by
naturalists Anisoplia Austriaca, and
by the rural population of Kherson,
Couzka. This insect first appeared
in 1865 in the Melitopol district, but
there is nothing known as to how and
whence it came, as it had never been.
. . heard of in any other part of Russia
upon considerations of t, r bordering countries. As many as
“iter. A 't en bushels of the beetles have been
for thy collected from ojne acre of • wheat.
’They fly from ear to ear and do not
'GaninlsAs^ q„jt the grain until it is destroyed.
They are capable of making long
flights from one government to anoth
er. Last summer a mass ot these
beetles was discovered in ihe sea near
Ochakoff -, they were so thick that it
was difficult to pull a boat through'
them.' The British Vide Consul at

To say that Harvey Foster was in
a bad temper was to put the wilJest
form of wbrds to express the savage
mood in which he found himself one
winter's evening, as he shot through
the main street of the town of L. on
his vfrny homeward. Everything, had
gone exactly" contrary to his' wishes
all the week.
Entirety ignorant of the fact that
Harvey Foster was a'man of standing
arid wealth in L., pretty Josie Orm~
stead allowed the minor fact, that he
was insnltingly free in his addresses,
to influence her so strongly that hrir
dignified reserve taught him the lesson
he needed ; and when he soright her
for his wife she refused the honor.
To add to his discomfiture, the
heiress, Miss Maud Chester—whom
bd had held in reserve, that his ambi
tion might win a wife if his love
would not—had coolly informed him
that she was engaged to Fred Holt.
NoVv, if there was one man above;
another who was utterly detestable in
tbe eyes of Harvey Foster, it was
Fred Holt. They had been rivals at
school, where both stood well in tal
ent, application, and' social position
and Fred was ever a little advanced in
every study, carrying away the con
tested prizes far more frequently than
it suited Harvey be'should. In socie
ty, Fred’s handsome face, ready wit,
courteous manners, and frank, sunny
temper kept him always itr higher
favor than Harvey’s sullen, cold dis
position cool'd gain. “ ' - •
And now, when Mand had' been
ever gracious to the son of tbe wealthy
banker, Silas Foster, she answered his
love suit by the tidings' that his life
long rival bad won her promise to be
his bride'.'
‘And the worst of it, it will be just
the match to suit his uncle,’ muttered
Harvey, savagely. ‘No fear of him
disinheriting Fred now.’
For Harvey knew that Fred depen
ded entirely upon the good-will of his
mother’s brother, James Rutherford,a
wealthy and eccentric bachelqr, for
his income. He had been left an or
phan when a tnere boy, and his uncle
had adopted and educated him, and
would probably tnakfe him heir. But
the bachelor, having lorg ago put
away sentiment, if he ever felt it,,
looked to Fred to math a match that
would increase his fortune and Social
position. It was the wish of his heart
to see Fred the husband of Maud
Chester and bis wish wfts to be ful
filled.
Barvey Foster, at odds with love,
would like to see his rival refused, dis-
inberi'ed, humbled as he felt himself
humbled, since neither love nor mon
ey would accept him. He strode over
the pavement in a savage mood, and
started suddenly to see Josie Orm*
stead coming out of a shop a few steps
in advance of him. In her hand were
several small packages, and her face
was pale and anxious. In a moment
Harvey was at her side.
‘Let tne carry some of your par
cels,’ he said, lifting his hat as he
spoke.
‘Thank you, I Save only a few steps
to go,’ answered Josie, hurrying for
ward nervously.
‘You need not be alraiil of me,’
Harvey said, noting her nervous man
ner. ‘I will not annoy you. Why
will you not believe my respect is as
great for you as my love 1’
And, before he knew hardly where
his words were leading him, the young
man was renewing the offer he hat
made before.
At tbe door of a small lodging bouse
Josie stopped and faced him.
‘You have iqiokcn bo before, Mr.
Foster,’ she said, gently; ‘and because
I believe you are sincere, I will tell
you w hat I have kept secret for six
months ; I am already married !’
‘Josie ! Be quick! Why do you
stand there ?’ cried a voice in the nar
row hallway, and a man stepped into
tbe bar light thrown across the open
door by a street lamp.
‘Fred Holt!’ muttered Harvey,
starting forward. ‘Married ! and to
Fred Holt!’
It almost consoled him iu bis own
di>appaintment to think of tbe hold
he had npon his rival. ^Engaged to
Maud Chester and married to Josie
Ormstead 1 Fancy the proud face when
she knew she had been de aeived for a
girl who worked. And sweeter still
was it to Harvey Foster to think of
tbe wrath oi James Rutherford when
the news reached him.
But in tiis triumph Harvey Foster
had resolved to be very catitious, to
have slroug proof of his rival’s mar
riage before venturin;
‘Anonymous!’ the proud girl
**id,_ her lips curled and • her eyes
flashing.- ‘It is a falsehood!’
She threw the note upon the coals
as she spoke, aqd watched the flames
curi and blacken the paper till, it
flashed out of sight up tbe chimney..
Then, with all the Color stricken from’
her face, she took up her'embroidery-,
Had Harvey watched her; theu, .be
would have thought that .ihaf,' pois
oned kfrow had missed its aim., Brit,
it was not bo. The work was, thrp wn
e piano rang cut unflej her
reittlesd"fingers, a novel was opened,
a room was put in order ; but, while,-
the calm face betrayed no secret euf.
feting, the girl was tortured' all .day
by the words of the anonymous bote :
‘Fred Holt and his wife!’. .
Could it be? Had, the.frabk Jtroiyri
eyes that had looked so lovingly. Into
hers mirrored only a false heart! Was
she, indeed, so far. ^deceived ?
Long before 8 o’clock Maud Ches
ter bad resolved to prove or falsify
the words that seemed burned upon
her brain. Sutely, of all the, world
she had the best right to test the
truth of such a - monstrous charge
against her betrothed lover.
And while she was striving tq -hide
front any eyes the tortures she , oris
dured, James Rutherford was storm
ing up and down his library, holding
the second of Harvey. Foster’s com
munications in his hand. Ip the
sarre awkward handwriting, the sajne
facts were stated, the same hour and.,
place to verify the^writer’s words. ,
-But-tBie peppery old bachelor, made-
no secret of his wrath. To have lis
tened to him, one. would have sup

It was with a chuckle of satisfaction
that Harry Foster, secretjy hidden in
a narrow court-way, watched a tall
stately figure leave a carriage at; the
head of Ralph street, and walk to r thq
door of No. 28. . In the.«priet of thq
street he heard a.clear .voice.’ ask tue
servant who opened the,door:— J

‘Yes,. ina’am^ second floor ’ •;,.
‘Is her husband at home.?’ a ,
,‘0, yes, ma’am ;. you’ll fiud, tliera

-Tn«n Maud Chester, ^entered the
house, just as a short,; pautiug man
dashed up tire steps, and, not paus
ing to make inquiry, also entered.
In the passage Maud , Chester,
turning, as rapid steps followed her,
faced James Rutherford,
•You'here!’ he said. ‘You have,
heard, too, then of the. trick.tjiiq un
grateful hound lias played upon both

cold voice, ‘that your nephew’s wife
lives in this house. I wish to ascer •
tain it it is true.’
‘We will soon see 1 wc will soou
see! Second floor. Here we are Now,
then !’ And the old geutlemau’s raps
proved the excitement under which
he was laboring.
A very pale, sweet woman opened
the door, her eyes showing that she
had been weeping very recently.
‘Does Mrs. Holman live here ?'■ the
old gentleman asked.
‘That’ is my name, sir.”
‘Can I see your husband ?’
Thfc soft eyes, full of deep trouble,
were lifted inquiringly to his face
“Is it on business, sir?*
‘Very important business, was the
rather dry response.
‘Because the doctor said to-day he
must not have any mental excite

sobs broke out agiin.
‘Dying!’ " ■■' ' ”••• •

Prosperous Athens.
A corresporilent front Athens to
the Augusta Chronicle says : “ The
city is steadily improving; new houses
aresspringing up all over the town,
and everything indicates prosperity.
The^fginale institutes open this- week
frnl corps of teachers. Tliey
have been thoroughly renovated dur
ing tbe vacation, and present neat
appearances. . The Lucy Cobb Insti
tute is in the skilled hands ot Miss
■Rdtlierford, who, for some time past,
has been connected with the public
gift of instructing. - This school is one
of the best in the State, and has for
had noticed tbe number oi tbe house
in the glare of the street lamp, 'No.
28 Ralph street.’ This was the entry
he made in his note-book, in case his
memory proved treacherous. It
seemed as if fortune favored bis
plans.
On the next day, happening to go
into a large frail aud flower shop, he
saw Fred Holt selecting the contents
ot a large fancy basket of choices
fruits and rarest blossoms. Nodding
carelessly to Harvey, be wrote the ad
dress upon a card, attached ii to the
pretty basket.
‘You will send this at once,’ he said,
. aud then left the shop.
And Harvey, taking the place Fried
had just vacated, read the card:—
‘Mrs. F. Holman, *No. 28 Ralph
street.’
What proof was nee led now ? It
was not in the nature of Harvey Fos*
ter to work openly iu any scheme. A
blow in the dark suited him better.
Feeling sure of his position hnow, he
hurried homeward to write two anon
ymous letters, which would, he fondly
hoped, disinherit and utterly confound
his successful rival. -
One of these venomous missives
found Maud Chester in her pretty
bouaoir,*and dreaming sweet dreams
of her love, and Fred Holt’s, devo
tion. She was a handsome, dignified
girl of 19, full of all womanly sweet*
ness, unspoiled by her great wealth.
Bhe loved Fred Holt with the whole
strength of her young heait, and the
was sure that her love was returned.
The dainty work under the tender
fingers progressed slowly, as Maud
lay baek„in her deep arm chair, look
ing into the glowing fire and building
castles of future happiness. From
this tender reverie she was aroused
-by a servant who handed her I
squarely-folded letter, awkwardly ad
dressed,and fastened with,a wafer..
Wondering who her unknown cor
respondent could be, she opened , tl.q
paper. The same straggling hatid
met her eyes. Only thpsq few. lines
were written:— ;
‘It yqu would have a proof qf the.
_ Isehood of one you beliqve true, go!
qf Eat 8f o’clock this evening to tho seo-
ond floor of No. 28 Ralph afreet,
yoo’will find Mr. Fred Holt And

And Fred, appearing in compliance
with this request, found his nncle .yig-,
orously fanning Maud Chester ,wiih a
newspaper to bring her out of a faint
irig fit. Before he could frame a
question, his uncle said, quickly:— 1
'‘Get me some water!* > v .
He obeyed. Then, wheri‘ Maud’s
eyes opened with a bewildered stare,
the old gentleman coutiuued:—
‘We were sent here to see'^-otfr
domestic felicity, arid we seciri 1 td be
misinformed.’ '. 1 ‘ “
‘My domestic felicity 1” cried Fred.
‘Read that,’ said his uncle, hand
ing tho anonymous note. Aud Fred
complied.
‘Humph 1 ves,’ he said. ‘So yoii
came to see Mrs. Fred Holt ? ' Well,
that lady has made roe a happy 'man,’
and his eyes flashed merrily upri'n
