St. l-ouia doctor factory recently ed out a dozen female doctors, lonjf as the female doctors were mfined to one or two in the whole CJuniry, And those only experiments, “ held our peace, and did not com* ' i; but now that the colleges are ged in producing female - doctors business, we mnst protest, and in oing will give it few reasons why ale doctors will not prove a paying -Bhiof industry. tfiefrr8t 1 praft,'THK*y ddWor*i»T“ body it mnst be women, and three* fourths of the women would rather have a male doctor. Suppose those colleges turn out female doctors nntil there are as many of them as there are male doctors, whom have they got to practice on? A man, if there was nothing the matter with him, might call iu a female doctor, but if he was sick us a horse, (if a man is sick he is sick as a horse,) the last thing lie would have around him then, would be a iemale doctor. And why ? Because, when a man has a female fumbling around him he wants to feel well.. He don’t want to be bilious or feverish, with his mouth ta-ting like cheese, and his eyes bloodshot, when the female is looking him over and taking account of stock. Of course these female doctors arc ad young and good-lookiug, and if one ol them came into a sick room where a man was in bed, and he had chills, and was as cold as a wedge, and she should sit up close lo the side ol the bed and take hold of his hand, his pulse would run up'to a hundred and fifty, and she would prescribe for a fever when ho had chilblains. Oh, yon can’t fool us on female doctors. A mail who lias been sick, and had male doctors, knows just how much lie would leel to have a female doctor come tripping in and throw her fur- lined cloak over a chair, lake off her hat and gloves and throw them on a lounge, and come up to the bed with a pair of marine blue eyes, with a twinkle iu the corner, and look him in the wild, changeable eyes, ami ask him to run out his tongue. Suppose he knew his tongue was coated so it look ed like a yellow Turkish towel, do you suppose he would want to run out over five or six inches of the lower part of it and let that female doctor put her finger «>n it to see how fur it was? Not much, lie would put that tongue up into his cheek, and wouldn’t let lier see it for twenty-five cents admission. Wc have all seen doctors put tlit-ir Lands under the bed clothes and feel of a n an’s feet to see it they were cold. 1 i a female doctor should do that it would give a man cramps in the legs. A male doctor can put his Laud on a man’s stomach, and liver and lungs, ami ask him if he feels any pain there, but if a female doctor should do the same thing it would make a man sick, and he would want to get up and kick himself for employ ing a female doctor. Oh, there is no use talking; it woflld kiU a roan. Now, suppose a man has heart dis ease, and a female doctor should want to listen to the beating ol his heart. She would lay lier left ear on his left breast, so lier eyes and rosebud mouth would be looking right in his face, and her wavy hair would be scattered all arouud there, getting tangled in tile buttons of his night shirt. Don’t you suppose his heart ■would get in about twenty extra beats to the minute? You bell Aud she would smile—we will bet ten dollars she would smile—'and show her pear* ly teeth, and the ripe lips would be working as though she were counting the beats, and he would think she was trying to whisper to him, and—. Well, what would he he doing all this time ? If he was not dead yet which would be a wonder, his left band would brush the hair sway ffom her temple and kind of stay there to keep the hair away, and his right hand would get sort of nervous and move around to the back of her head, and when she had counted the beats a few minutes and was rai9iug her head he would draw the head up to him and kiss her once for luck, if he was as bilious as a Jersey swamp angel— and have her charge it in the bill. And then a reaction would set in, and he would be as weak as a cat, and she would have to fun him and ■ ub his head till he got over being nervous, and then make out his prescription alter he got to sleep. -No; all of a man’s symptoms change when a • fe male doctor is practising on him, and ehe would kili him dead.

Atlanta, Ga., April 25tli.—At this season you wid doubtless find it piotitable to employ additional labor ers. I am enabled to stata that, if farm ers in this state will employ in , one neighborhood a sufficient number of .white laborers to give them congeni al companionship, and will board them in their houses, or provide them with food or lodging that will be satisfac- torv. Dflvini* fair wa<rc»8 it in nrohq— end of rafters. One set of principal rafters to be ,, ^’7/ ° ’ * 18 prODa placed upon each tie beam, well braced by hie the.t aa tunny as may he needed br~ - * -- ~ can be supplied. A charge of $5 per head wifi be required, in order to pay expenses. It the laborers are not de livered at the place agreed upon, the its institutions of Learning fostered and supported by her, it has always held a warm place iu the heart of otir commonwealth. The alumni of the University are found in every town and banilet, and it there is any one thing upon which the finger of time cannot place its impress it is the mem ory of schoolboy days. Wherever they may be, whatever circumstances may surround them, the heart will throb at mention of his alma mater, and when her interests are to he subserved, his hand, his heart, and his purse are at her service. Year by year this influ ence is augmenting, and the friends of the goodl) little city are increased by the score, as her graduating classes go forth into the busy walks of life. On the occasion of the meeting of the State Baptist Convention in Ath ens last week, we paid the city a visit. It was not the first time we hail been to Athens, hut it was the first time we have ever got acquainted with 1 Our other visits were mere formal in troductions, a bow, a commonplace word or two, and she swept aside her skirts and passed on, while we went about our business. This time wo went to visit her, we came to know her, to declare our passion, and best of all, if our vanity is not leading us into grievous error, to find it recipro cated. No reader need fear that we are going into details about the Baptist Convention. They had a regular Secretary, and he will doubtless print the proceedings in a book, and those interested can buy it. Of far more interest is it to us to talk ot Athens herself, her manly men, beautiful wo men, and open hospitality. In the last named she stands a peerless queen and the salt ot the earth who entered in and supped at her table, and par took of the good cheer, went away feeling that it was indeed good to be there. In the language of the old play song of the children “She lifted up her gates as high as the sky. To let King George’s men pa -s by.” Only instead of of letting them pass by she had them to pass in, and make themselves at home. For many years Athens was in* debted for her greatness to the state University. Commercially she was blocked in, and was the teruminus ol a branch railroad in the hards of a corporation who could make or 'break her at will. A few years since the plnck of the citizens and a little aid from the state carved a way through the forest aud tapped a trunk line from the east to the west, thus giving her competitive rates, and ruauy other advantages. And yet with all these, she was only the terminal point of two branch railroads. Now it sceins that there is a fair prospect that all this is to be changed, and in the moves up* on the railroad checkerboard, she seems about to reap the benefits of being on a trunk line between the At lantia‘and the east and west. It she achieves this her waiting and watching and labor will not have keen iu vain, and none will rejoice more than we at her success. ATLANTA 7>z/M, LARGEST STUCK of CLOCKS in tbs Slat*.

If successful, several thousand can be speedily furnished ; if unsuccessful, it will be difficult to inaugurate so com* prehensile a scheme again. It is very important that good wheal bread be supplied them, for they know nothing of corn bread, and will not take kind ly to it. It is essential that they should receive good diet and lodging until they can learn our language and pro vide for themselves. A few months will accomplish this and, after that, it is confidently believed they will either buy land or work at the same wages now paid to our excellent negro labor ers.

Macon Telegraph’ The first Confederate banner made in (Georgia was the work of Mrs. Thomas Hardeman. It was present ed to the Floyd Rifles on the morn ing aftei the congress at Montgomery had adopted the stars and bars as the flag of the Confederacy, and was taken by the Rifles to Norfolk, Va., in April 18til. During the confusion of re moval and transportation it was un fortunately lost. The banner born by the Macon Volunteers during the late war was presented by Miss Marianne Cobh, (laughter of General Howell Cobb. It was the sixth standard that had been presented to that company, and was destroyed in Richmond, Virgin ia, during the burning of a portion of that city at the dose of the war. The colors of the first Georgia Reg iment ol Volunteers, Colonel Henry R Jackson commanding, were made and presented by Miss Howard of Co lumbus, afterwards Mrs. Charles Wits Hams. She was the origiuator of our memorial day, aud in honor ot her memory, the grave where she rests, on the banks ol the Chattahoochee, receives at every anniversary of that day a most appropriate floral decora tion. AX EXPLAXATI0X. The words “nihilist,” “commu nist” and “socialist’’ are more or less familiar to the reader, who may or may not exactly understand their meaning. Mr. Louis Viereck, a so cialist editor from Leipsic,, Germany, explains as to the terms “nihilist” and “socialist.” It will require a Frenchman to furnish the definition of “communist.” “In Russia,” says Herr Vierack, “there are three fac tions of so-called nihilists. One of these aimed at a constitutional mon archy and free suffrage. JThe second aims at socialistic republic, and- cors responds to the socialists of Germa ny. The other taction is composed of anarchists, who are agaii.atjall gov ernment, ami,would destroy every thing. The anarchists are the assas sins. There are anarchists iu Germa ny, but they are excluded from the socialistic party. Justus Schwab and Ilasseiinanu, of New York,and Moat, whose paper was suppressed in Lon don recently, are anarchists, and hjwe heen excluded from the socialistic party. The socialists btlieve they can accotr plish their objects peacea bly, and are opposed to violence.” Grant’s Design. An old West Pointer who knows Grant well says; ‘The ex-Presidenl has landed in Mexico, aud^hia arrival there is at pregnant with fate to that country as was the landing Ot Cortez. Mexico haa been a dream with him ever since he was there as a boyssol- dier—for be was nothing more—and was intoxicated with its possibilities for empire and enjoyment. Grant savs now that he wants lfi years in Which (o develop the country. In 6 years he will be its President; in 10 years its dictator. He goes there as a patriot, and the ‘outs’ will take up with him as a good man to head their column. Grant talks about trade, and no doubt be means railroads and importations and all that, but it is not sale to say that you can tell from his conversation just what he is thinking gbout. Grant meaus bigger business in Mexico than any of his friends have yet given him credit for.’ (Atlanta Tout-Appeal, April 29.) From a gentleman who has just come from Gainesville we learu the following particulars of a queer con test which is going on between Hon. Ferdinand Phinizy, of Athens, and Mr. J. J. Hayden, of White Sulphur 'vand state. Springs. Both are wealthy men. Mr. Hayden is largely interested iu gold mining in North Georgia. The case seems to be about this: Some time ago the railroad allowed Phinizy to erect a dwelling house on their right of way; but the railroad company had no deed to the land, pud Hayden went and bought a large tract of land which included the land on which Phinizy’s house was erected. The house being vacant, Hayden moved into it, claiming that the house was his and everything else that was on his land, just as much as the trees that are standing on his land are his. Phin izy thought differently, and sent two men to eject Hayden from the house, which they did and put his goods out also. He then employed Preston Prather and Jesse Davis to guard the house to prevent Hayden from re-entering the house. Last Sunday Prather left Davis alone to go to Gainesville.thinking that Davis would be able to “hold the fort.’’ Sunday Hayden called around at the house and found Davis in bed from a sore toot. Hayden dressed his foot for him and then picking up Davis’ gun and revolver, and his own gun, he went on the verandah and discharged the contents of all the fire-arms. He then told Davis that the best thing he could do Was to get on the down train, when it came along, and go to Gainesville. Davis objected, and said he did not want to 'do it. Hayden replied that men had to do a great many things sometimes that they did not want to do, and that this .was one of them; that he must go; and that when he flagged down the train he must get on board. Davis reluctant ly did as lie was bid, but not belcre he had drained Hayden’s whisky flask for him. Aliout three hours alter the train had passed Davis returned with a posse of men in buggies, and arrested Hayden on a warrant, charg ing him with a-sault with intent to murder. Hayden quietly submitted to tiie arrest, and went along with them to Gainesville, but having $10.- 000 in Banks’ bank, he got Banks to go on bis bond. The case was being tried before court ot referees yesterday when dur informant left. Hayden claims that he still haa the keys. However that may be, Phinizy has three men still guarding the bouse against all intru ders. comiiir to the ground. Hand rail.—Hand rail to he three feet high. Post to be made of 4x6 inches scant!inn notched out so as to fit on sleeper and securely spiked to same, railing to lie 4xG inches, notched down on top of post, spiked through the top into post.

The plan and specifications may be seen in mjr oitice.
