Mr Dougherty is not only one of the largest and liest mer chants in Atlanta, but he isoneot the kindest and most considerate ol his clerks.

Some of them were very character istic—this one of General Toombs. It seems when the General was a can didate for re-election to the legislature, one of his voUs in the previous sessiou was very Unpopular with Iris peop'e, and a certain ‘smart Ellick’ had posted himself on the ric >rd to turn down the vigorous yor-ng tribune. YVlule Toombs was speaking, he rose with the journal ol the House, aud said in a whining tone of voice, ‘Mr. Toombs. I find one of your vote.- hero which I don’t like.’ ‘You are d—i lucky,’ says Toombs, ‘to find only one of that soil. There is a devilish sight of them that I don’t like.’ It is needless to say mat the sell-appointed critic re tired in disgust. Another time Toombs had voted a vt ry had vote on some question, and he was interrupted by an opponent during his address, who 4ked him in a Limiting way. as if he had him: •YY’liat have you got to say about this vote ?’ * It is a d—d bad vote,’ said Toombs, ‘What have yon got to say about it ?’ The gentleman, like tbe boy tbe cslf ruu over, had nothing to add. ‘ GKT UP, SONNY.’ Mr. Stephens tells some amusing incidents of iris own experience, ac cording to Mr. Speer, who had brought all the jokes away wilii him. He was a delegate to a famous political con vention at Charleston before the war, and pul up at one ol the best hotels, kept by an excellent woman. After dinner Mr Stephens went in the par lor and lay down on the sofa. There were quite a number of gentlemen in the pnrlor; aud the bustling landlady, lookiug after the comfort of her guests, came in and seeing bis small figure reclining at foil length, said to him with a shake by the sb ou l ,1 -t , i'> ‘Got up, sonny, and let some of these grown men sit down on that sofa.’ Mr. Ste phens said he got up without a word, but the way the story is told by oth ers, the day uilerwatds, when he re plied to some of the most famous men of the Carolina*, and ovei threw them in debate, the contusion ol the good landlady was something wondertul 4NPWIVp. GOOD. ONE. xYnother time Mr, Stephens' was going to Cassville to speak. It was io tbe heyday of his fame and popa lsrity as a stumper. He stayed all night with an old. man up iu Cass, now Bartow county. He didn’t in quire the name of his host, nor did tbe host know who tbe guest was. The pext morning as he told his kind en- lanta for trial, and immured in prison for a trivial and technical offense, that the people ceased to sympathize with the law, Ac. Thu interview has been misrepresented, aud Gov. Brown has been represented as saying that he sympathized cordially with all of the efforts made to crush out ‘ lawlessness’ in the 9th District. It seems impossi ble for a public man to talk in these times without danger ot misrepresen tation. APROPOS OF INTERVIEWS, the Chicago Times, tbe great daily paper of the West, bad in its issue ot ihe27ih iust., a columu and ahull special telegram from this city, con taining a report ot an interview wifh Mr. Speer, of your district, on tbe con dition and needs of the South. The interview has attracted a great deal of attention here, and was copied en tirely in tbe National Repultltcan. In the issue of • the 28tb, the leading editorial of the Chicago Times, i column in length, is devoted to aeon sideration of Mr. Speer’s views, and that paper declares that ‘there more snggestivo tiuth iu this inter view than any other member of Con 1 gress has expressed in a very long time.’ I hope that both the interview and the editorial will be published in the Georgia papers, aa leading men here declare that the whole effect of it must be beneficial to the South, welcome.
