TRUMAN W. KELLOGG.
Our much esteemed young friend,
Tramun Kellogg is now in “Moore’s
Bnsiness College” in Atlanta.

young men preparing for life’s fu
ture, we greatly miss Truman on
account of his quiet unabtrusive
sociality.
admiration for any man who has
the moral courage to confront over
whelming odds nnd throw out his
banner in the face of solid organi
zations; and now that the battle
has been fought wo deem it not
amiss in us as a public,but neutral
journalist, to aguiu express our
high appreciation of the courage
a .d dignified course which charac
terized the cunvass of our old time
friend, Gelt. Qartrell, '1 Rough not
a participant ourselves in the cam
paign wc wero a close observer,
und it given us groat pleasure to
know that ho conducted himself
throughout in an liouorahlo, digni
fied and straightforward manner
and though defeated by heavy odds
wo know that the people of Geor
gia will hereafter hold him in high
er osteem for his manly course.
There was no bittornossB in his
utterances, ho corruption in his
methods, and no concealments in
is Hcntinieuts, but over open,
courteous und evenly poised be
fought a bravo und noble b.ittlo to
the bitter end. No doubt defeat
stared him in the face from the day
the lion. Alexander II. Stephens
was nominated with such unanitn
ity and with an all-prevading son
tiinent throughout the State to do
a lust crowning service to Goor
gin’s old, long tried and grandest
Roman of them all in his last days
Doubtless he exclaimed from that
moment with Cato :
The dawn is overcast.the morning lowers,
And heavily in clouds brings on the day;
The great, th* important day, big with
Thu fate of Cato, and of Rome
But Gartrell had already announc
ed himself; his bugle blasts hud
alroady been Bounded through the
niountuiiiB and vullcys and ho
could not take down his colors
But like a true knight ot the olden
times ho electrified all clans with
the war cry, “To the rescue!” nnd
pushed on to the thickest of the
fight.
We sympathize with him in his
defeat. But Georgians will honor
him in the futurei for ho has illus
trated Georgia dignity, Geoigin
honor aud Georgia couinge, and
set an example for all future aspi
rants and future campaigns. He
is still in tho prime of his manhood,
nnd the day is coming when Geor
gians with voluntary accord will
call him to the highest honors with-
in their gift.
We deeply sympathize with him
too in his groat family offhetions.
His noble and devoted wife is
doubtless stricken unto death, and
while his political aspirations are
blasted for the time and he is no
doubt bowed down with the griev
ous reflection that many professed
followers deserted him in tho hour
of his lieed. his big heart is also
bleeding over the fatal sufferings
of his best and dearest of all earth
ly friends—his devoted wife.—
“Stern fate and time will have
their victims,” says tho village
Patriarch, but in this world ot
blighted hopes, false friendships
and disappoiuied ambitions,
No ono is s« cursed by fate,
No one is so utterly desolate,
But some heart, though unknown,
Respond unto his own.
If we may judge of the Gartrell
of to-day from the Gartrell of tho
past he accepts his late with Ihe
same dignity and manliness which
has ever characterized him and
will leave the future to do him
justice, Ho will not continue to
fight such odds by contesting the
election of Mr. Stephens, but will
be one of his warmest suppor ters-
In his defeat he rejoices no doubt
that he was beaten by such a man
Christian gentleman will gladly
endorse. It stands ont in bold
contrast to the selfish, cowardly,
boastful, gloatings] of the lillipa
tians, who never dreamed of any
thing higher thnn to ostracize a de
feated opponent, or a more noble
act of courage, than to kick a fall
en enemy. Though thousands in
Georgia differed with General Oar-
troll; no thinking man who knows
nim will ever sav anything c-ise,
than lie wm, and is a high-minded,
noble Christian gentleman. He
is a do tented hero and Georgians
will yet honor him, ono of her no
blest sons.

HAPPINESS.
Tho secret of being happy is, to
make others happy. We should
labor to make all feel better from
tho meeting. “Do good to all
men”—is God’s command. If we
can do nothing more, we can give
a smile. Let it bo tho lmbit ot our
lives that—if wo can do no good
to any one, we will do no harm
If we can’t benefit, we will not in
jure—If we can say no good, we
will say no harm.
