THE SUNNY | w ATLANTA, GA, SATURDAY MORNING. FEBEUARY 26. 1OT.
The Tampa Cornet Band, of Tampa Florida,
realized about $100 net on their excursion to

Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 15.—Last night
was the occasion of two brilliant events in so
ciety circles. The firs' was the reception ten
dered to Bishop and Mrs. Weed, at the resi
dence of Maj tr R. McLaughlin, from 6 to G.
The affair though contemplated since the quite
recent arrival of the recipients in the city and
forth : 8 reason almost impromptu, was el -
gant in the extreme, and was a most graceful
welcome to the Bishop and his charming lady.
Mrs. McLaughlin was assist-d in receiving
by Mrs. Weed and her mother, Mrs. Stockton,
and by her charming sisters, Mrs. Tom Stock-
ton, Mrs. John Stockton and Mrs. Telfair
Stociton. The spacious rooms were beauti
fully and lavishly decorated with palms, ca-
inelias, jasmines and orange flowers.
There were between 150 and 200 guests
present. Although the night was drizzling,
dark and dreary, all the best society people
were out, and the evening passed perforce in
a most delightful manner. After enjoying the
hospitality of this gracious host and hostess,
many of tie company repaired to the residence
of Judge J. C. Marcy, on Ashley street.
Here a full dress reception, beginning at 0,
was given by Mrs. J. C. Marcy and her daugh
ters. The rooms were tastefully decorated
with bowers, trailing vines and evergreens.
The staircase, chandelier t and mirrors were
artistically twined with ivy and jasmine.
Judge and Mrs. Marcy, received their
guests being assisted by their sons and daugli-
ters-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Marcy, Jr.,
and Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Marcy. Everything
from the decorated entrance way, to the ex-
q tisite fruit-piece which formed the central or
nament on the artistically arranged table, was
in the most perfect taste and keeping. T le
ladies have every reason to be gratified with
the reflection that they so successfully con
tributed to the enjoyment of their many
friends; for enjoyment was unmistakably rs-
corled on every face.
The costumes of the ladies, both guests and
hostesses, were poems of elegance and taste.
It was at a late hour that the adieus were spo
ken, and an event which will long be cherish
ed as a pleasant memory was a thing of the
past.
The second annua! ball of the Grand Army
of the Republic takes place next Tuesday eve
ning, and will be another brilliant social event
in the city.
A very pretty wedding took place at the
Fin-t Presbyterian Church in Savonnah, Ga.,

A boy not over 11 years old, whose pinched
face betrayed hunger, and whose clothing
could scarcely be called by the name, dropped
into a carpenter-shop on Grand River Avenue
the other day, and after much hesitation ex
plained to the foreman :
“We want to get a grave-board for ma. She
die! last winter, ano the graves are so thick
that we can’t hardly find hers no more. We
weut up last Sunday, and we come awful near
not finding it. We thougit we’d git a grave-
board, so we wouldn’t lose the grave: When
we thought we’d lost it. Jack he cried, and
Bud he cried, and my chin trembled so I could
hardly talk.
“ Where is your father?” asked the carpen
ter.
“Oh, he’s home, but he never goes up there
with us, and we shan’t tell him about the
board. I guess he hated ma, for he wasn’t
home when she died, aud he wouldn’t buy no
coffi i, nor nothing. Sometimes, when we are
sittin’ on the doorstep talking about her, and
Jack and Bud are cryin’, and I’m remember
in’ how she kissed us all afore she died, he
says we’d better quit that, or we’ll get what’s
bad for us. But we sleep up stairs, and we
talk and cry in the dark all we want to. How
much will the board be?
The carpenter selected something fit for the
purpose, and asked:
“ Who will put it up at the grave?
“We’ll take it up on our cart,” replied the
boy, “and I guess the graveyard man’willhelp
us put it up.”
“You want the name painted on, don’t
you ?”
“Yes, sir ; we want the board white, and
then we want you to paint on that she was our
ma, and that she was forty-one years old, and
that she died the 2d of November, and that
she’s gone to heaven, and that she was one of
the best mothers ever was,and that we are go
ing to be good all our lives, and go up where
she is when we die. How much will it cost,
sir?”
“How much have you got?”
“Well.” said the boy, as he brought out a
li‘tie calico bag and emptied its contents on
the bench. "Bud drawed the baby for the wo
man next door and earned 20 cents; Jack he
weeded in the garden earned 40 cents, and he
found five more in the road. I run of errands
and made kites and fixed a boy’s cart and
helped carry some apples into a store, and I
earned 65 cents. All that makes 130 cents,
sir. and pa don’t kniw we've got it,
’cause we kept it hid in the ground under a
stone.”
The carpenter meant to be liberal, but he
said:
A grave -board will cost at least three dol
lars ”
The lad looked from his little store of
metals to the carpenter and back, realized
how many wsary weeks had passed since the
first penny was earned and saved, aud sud
denly wailed out:
••Then we can’t never, never buy one. and
ma’s grave will get lost.”
But he left the shop with tears of gladness
in his eyes, and when he returned yesterday
'ittle Bud and Jack were with him. and they
had a carl. There was not only a head-board,
but one for the foot of the grave as well, and
paint -r and carpenter had done their work
with full hearts, and done it well.
Ain’t it awful nice—nicer than rich folks
have!” whispered the children, as the boards
were being placed on the cart; won’t the grave I the business, htr powers of invention were

Here Mehinda fell to shouting, and as a
number of other sisters began to howl in uni
son, it was some time before quiet could be
restored sufficiently for the meeting to pro
ceed with its business.
The next candidate to come forward, after
the uproai had sub-sided, was Liza Wells,
strapping maiden of sixteen, with the figure of
an Amsterdam alderman and the complexion
of a pair of new patent pumps. This was
Liza’s first “exper ’ance,” and being new at
“You Liza Wells!” she cried, in a tone that
showed no great respect for Liza’s recent pro
fessions, “tf you doan shet up dat foolishness
and go ’long back to yo’ seat, I’ll tek yon out
when we git home, an whup you tell you can’t
set down! Dat gal,” she continued in an
apologetic tone, turning to Uncle Ed >m, “has

ev’ything to do by ourselves, while dat Liza’s
ben a porin roun’ de house doin nothin, un’er
pertense er seekin religion. I’se gittin’ tired er
sech, I is.”
“Hit was de sperrit a wuckin’ in her, sis
Cindy,” said Uncle Edom, who felt bo ind to
d. fend his own convert. “You mus have pa
tience wid de sperrit; hit’ll be all right now.
she s done got religion.”
“I doan b’lieve in no sech religion,” return
ed Mahala, irreverently. “I aint nuver heern
er ’ligion lay in aroun in de water common ez
pig tracks.”
“But we all hatter go un’er de water fur it
at las’,’’ answered Uncle Edom, triumphant y.
“God move in a mysterois way, sis Cindy,
an you musn’t cry agin de wukkius er de sper
rit.”
“Yes, it have ben in a mischeevous way wid
dat Liza,” answered Lucinda emphatically.
“Dat gal aint ben fitten fur nothin but to be
put to bed an fed wid’ a spoon ever sence her
come from de camp-meetin’. Ef she’s done
got so much religion tell she hatter car’y it in
her pockets, I’d lack fur her to show some er
it. Whar is it?” she demanded, turning sud
denly to Liza. “Tek some er dat ’ligion you
seh you got in dar, outer yo' pocket an lemme
see it!”
Liza appearing somewhat discomfitted at
this challenge, Uncle Edom threw himself
again into the breach.
“Hit’s in her heart, sis Mahaly,” he said,
soothingly. “Religion doan b’long to de outer
’dornment er de pusson, hit b’long to de in
side.”
“Yes,” said the hopeful Liza, catching at
this cue, “hit’s in my iDSides—I’se done swal-
lered it so as to mekshoasin losin’ uf it.” And
having thus squelched the maternal inquisi
tion, she flounced back to her seat with an air
of triumphant virtue truly edifying to behold.

WHALE HUNTING.
The Origin, Progress and Decay of a
Most Important Industry.
[Chicago Times.]
With the decline of the whaling industry is
brought to a conclusion o re of the most im
portant and interesting characters of the
world’s commercial history. In the year 1834
whaling was in its prime, and Nantucket was
the headquarters where most of the outfitting
was done. The discovery of gold in California
had much to do with the ruination of Nan
tucket, for the ships bound around the Horn
and up the Pacific to the northern fields, and
touching at California ports for supplies,
would lose most of their crews by desertion,
the sailors choosing rather to hunt for gold
than spending two or three years amid the icy
seas, chasing whale*. In 1840 the discovery
of coal oil settled the business, and whaling
has been on the down road ever since. The
earliest record we have of the whaling indus
try dates back to the year 890, and when Oh-
thore, a Norseman, hunted these leviathans of
the deep all along the coast of the Scandina
vian peninsula as far north as the Spitzbergen
and Cape North. Barentz afterward pushed
his way beyond Iceland into the Arctic depths,
and Poole followed in 1610 a voyage during
which he caught a great cargo, but mostly ror
quals and walruses. The first whale captured
in the Greenland seas was secured by CaptaiD
Edge about 1620, who trappe i a small fellow
that yielded twelve tons of pure sperm oil.
He" returned and reported the whole north
ern seas fairly swimming with monsters of the
de- p. The Dutch fell into the way about this
time, and much of the vast wealth obtained by
the lowland countries in those early days must
be attributed to that source. In 1811 the
greatest scene of activity- was in Baffin’s Bay,
and a few years later reports were brought in
from the southern latitudes that great schools
of whales were roaming about in the neighbof-
hood of the south pole. It should be remark
ed that some authorities advance the theory
of migration, and that some of the whales cap
tured in the Antarctic were actually members
of the Arctic family. They also assert that
the species found in the southern seas are in
ferior, which is or was brought about by feed
ing on the inferior quality of herring inhabit
ing that latitude in great shoals.
THE GERMAN REICHSTAG.
No More Drought.
[N. Y. Star.]
It was Mr. A. N. Cole, of Wellsviile, Alle
ghany county, N. Y-, who first propounded
and advanced the proposition that it was will
ful waste so allow the rains and snows to form
into streamlets, rush into rivers, and bear out
to the oceans the richest portion of the soil,
often leaving ruin in their crurse. He asserted
that by- a simple adaptation of the lands adja
cent to the natural watersheds of the world,
reservoirs of all sizes could readily be obtain
ed, in which the waters would accumulate aud
be conserved, and from which, by an inexpen
sive system of sub-surface irrigation and drain
age, they might be released to moisten and
feed the dry and hungry earth.
Mr. Cole was the life-long friend and asso
ciate of Horace Greeley. Together they work
ed out many problems for the amelioration of
their fellow men.
Mr. Cole alone has survived to witness the
fulfillment of a dream that promises to revolu
tionize all agriculture, horticulture, forest cul
ture, fish culture, manufacturing, mining and
inland navigation.
0n his hillside farm at Wellsviile he has
already put his theory into practice, so far as
crops are concerned, and demonstrated the
feasibility of reserving a surplus of water from
th4 wet seasons for use in times of drought.
He has lived to see the subject of aqua-culture
taken up, discussed and advocated by the
leading agricultural journals of the day. The
Rural World, published by United States
Commissioner of Agriculture, Norman J. Col-
man, has ihis to say of the old philosopher’s
wisdom and ingenuity:
There are few seciions of this vast country
where water is not furrfished naturally by
means of the rains or the snow, but their com

when most wanted—nay. when absolutely es

not forthcoming. Did the Creator ever intend
that because he sends a surplus now it should
be permitted to go to waste simply because it
is not for the moment wanted?
We re-printed yesterday a most interesting
article from the American Angler, which pre
sents this great subject k all its most attract
ive lights to farmers and kitchen gardeners.
We are aware that Mr. Cole has been asso
ciated with vast enterprises and a pioneer in
great undertakings. We remember that he
assisted in putting the Repulican party on its
legs; that he outlined our Central Park and
foreshadowed our systems of rapid transit.
But of all the work that a keen mind, an un
flagging industry and an unfaltering faith can
accomplish, we submit that in thus under
standing and defining the economies of na
ture’s water supply he has proved himself to
be one of the greatest benefactors of the age.

the walls, flowers to cultivate the finer sensibili

not a tithe the amount that one of the lesser

be acquired away from home, but so seldom

a gathering of young and old around the hearth

drops in to pass a pleasant hour. There should
be music and games and reading. The taste of
all should be consul ed, until each member of

A Terrible Bebuke-
An old man whom age had made helpless
and decrepit was obliged to depend entirely for
his subsistence and care upon his son’s family.
While taking his food bis hand trembled so
much that he often spilled it upon the table
cloth, and his son had him take his meals out
of an earthern dish in the corner. The dish
fell out of his trembling hands and was broten,
which so vexed his son and his wife that they
bought him a wooden dish for his future use.
The next day the little grandson was discov
ered at work with chisel and hammer upon a
log of wood.
“What in the world are you doing there, my
son?” said the father.”
The little fellow did not want to tell, and his
mother asked, “What are you doing there, my
son? Tell me at once.”
Oh,” said he, “I’m making a little trough,
like the one piggie eits out of.”
“What are you going to do with the pig-
trough, my son?”
“ Why, mother,” said the little biy, “I’m
making it for you and father to eat out of
when I’m a man!”
It was a lesson in time to the father and
mother, and grandfather after this had a place
at the table, and was treated as one of the
family, and not like a worn out brute.—Ex.
How It is Created, and "W bat It Bep-
resents—An Electorate of Nearly
10,000,000—The Prussian
System.
The constitutional crisis in Germany, arising
out of the rejection of the army improvement
bill, introduced by Prince Bismarck and so
earnestly supported by the veteran Marshal
von Moltke, calls for a new election of mem
bers by the people of the German empire.
How and in what way the elections are con
ducted, what the functions and powers of the
elected body are, and how it is constitnted,
will be of special interest to our readers at this
time.
The German empire, as every one knows, is
a very modern creation, or re-creation. It
consists of a federal union of all the States of
Germany, whi ih by the terms of the consti
tution of April 16, 1871, formed “an eternal
union for the protection of the realm and the
care of the German people.”
The supreme direction of the military and
political affairs of the empire is vested in the
King of Prussia, who, as such director, bears
the title of “Deutscher Kaiser.” According
to the seconi article of the constitution, “the
Kaiser represents the empire internationally,
and can declare war if defensive, and make
peace as well as enter into treaties with other
nations, and appoint and receive ambassa
dors.”
To ded ire war, if not merely defensive, the
Kaiser must have the consent of the Bundes
rath or Federal Council, in which body, to
gether with the Reichstag or Diet of the realm,
are vested the legislative functions of the em
pire. The Bundesrath represents the individ
nal States of Germany; the Reichstag the Ger
man nation. The members of the Reichstag,
397 in number, are elected by universal suf
frage on ballot, for a term of three years.
The enormous preponderance of Prussian
influence in both houses is shown by the fact
that in the Bundesr;.t : i it has 17 out of 29 mem
bers, and in the Reichsiag 236 deputies out of
the whole number of 397. The kingdom of
Bavaria is represented by 6 in the Bundesra’h
and 48 in the Reichstag; Wurtembur r, 4 and
67; Saxony, 4 and 17; Grand Duchy of Baden,
3 aud 14; and Hesse, 3 and 9. The represen
tation remaining is divided among sixteen
grand duchies, duchies, principalities. The
free towns of Hamburg, Lubec and Bremen
are represented, the former by 1 vote in the
Bundesrath and 3 in the Reichstag, while the
two others have 1 each in both houses. The
Reichsland” or “Territorial” government of
Alsac e-Lorraine sends 1 member to the Bund
esrath and 15 to the Reichstag or National
House.
Both of the Houses meet in annual session
convoked by the Kaiser. He has the right
to prorogue and dissolve the Reichstag, but the
prorogation must not exceed sixty days; while
in case of dissolution the new elections must
take place within sixty days, and the new
session must open within ninety. All laws
for the empire must receive the votes of an ab
solute majority of the Bundesrath and the
Reichstag. The Bundesrath is presided over
by the reichskanzler or chancellor of the em
pire, and the president of the Reichstag is
elected by the deputies.
It will be noticed that the proceedings of the
past week in the Reichstag have been made
more important yet by the presence of the
chancellor, Prince Bismarck. It seems strange
to our notions of independent legislation to
have the president of the • Senate talking by
right in the lower house, yet this is what the
German chancellor can and did do. By vir
tue of his office Bismarck has the light to be
present at all deliberations of the House of
Deputies.
The laws as passed by the two houses, have
to be approved and promulgated by the Em
peror, and be countersigned by the Chancellor
of the empire.
In addition to its legislative functions the
Bundesrath represents also a supreme admin
istrative and consultative board; and as such
has several standing committees: Army and
navy; tariff, excise and laws; trade and com
merce; railways, posts and telegraph; civil
and criminal law; financial accounts and for
eign affairs. Each committee consists of rep
resentatives of at least four States of the em
pire, but the foreign affairs committee includes
only the representatives of tbe four kingdoms
of Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony and Wurtemberg.
The population of the German States at the
last census was 46,840,587, and the number of
“listed” at an election prior to that census
was 9,124,311, and the number actually voting
5,834 843, a pretty good proportion thus stay
ing at home and "feeling little interest in the
subject.
It will be interesting to note whether this
proportion of stay-at-homes is maintained
during the coming elections. The measure of
popular interest in the matter will thus be
ascertained beyond question.
The Prussian System.
It will be noticed that almost simultaneously
with tbe dissolution of the Imperial House of
Representatives or Reichstag tbe “Landtag “
of the Prussian monarchy was opened. This
body consists of two chambers, the House of
Lords (Herrenhaus) and the “Abgeordneten
haus,” or Chamber of Deputies. Tbe upper
bouse cons sts of royal princes, sixteen chiefs
of the “mediatized” princely houses, territori
al nobility, formed by the King and number
ing about fifty; a number of life peers, chosen
by the King from among rich landowners,
great manufacturers and “national celebri
ties”; eight titled noblemen,elected in tbe eight
provinces of Prussia by the resident landown
ers of all degrees, and representatives of uni
versities, heads of “chapters,” burgo-masters
of towns having over 50,000 inhabitants, and
lastly au unlimited number of members nom
inated by the King for life, or for a more or
less restricted period.
The last gives the King a tremendous pow
er to force legislation through, if he felt dis
posed to exercise it.
With the second Chamber the people have a
little more interest. The voting franchise is
conferred on citizens above the age of 25, sub
ject to qualification by taxation. The lowest
grade of voters are called “indirect” electors,
and these have power to nominate a represen
tative. The “direct electors” are chosen by
these “indirect” to the number of one lor
every 250 sou s.
The Chamber thus elected sits for a term of
three years. Every Prussian voter is eligible,
provided he has forfeited no rights and has
paid taxes for three years previous. When a
member accepts office under the crown he
must be re-elected to the Chamber. Members
of the Deputies receive* about §5 a day and
travelling expenses, and refusal of the salary
is not permitted.
