Senator Colquitt, on the other
hand, Voted against hi*), and did
all in his power to prevent the

to the effort of the Hancock far

neither pay their hands nor give

A little plain, honest, effective
legislation in the interdst’ of debt-
paying is sadly needed* in Geor
gia. The tendency of legislation,
since the war, lias been in the
other direction. There are a num
ber of kinds of hard work bv
which people earn the means of a
livelihood: but.there is no other jail'at Albany,
work comparable to that of col
lecting ilchts. in all that tends to
make labor exhausting and un-
remunerative. l’eople whose first

which they could well have been
spared, anil for which there was
no excuse.
What Same Men H ark for.
Two men living near Shelby -
ville, Tcnn., residing not Tar apart
went home drunk one day last
week. Reaching the house of the
one nearest to town, they both
went in, and while at the stipjier
table got into a quarrel about a
het they had made while on the
way home. The wife endeavored
to quiet them, hut failed, and they
repaired to the yard to fight it out
with knives. At this point the
wife ran in between the two men
and received the thrust from both
in her body. Without saying a
word, site went back to the house
and fell down dead. The men
catne to their senses ns soon as
they saw what they hud done,
made friends, and starting to the
house met one of his little clnl
dren. wlm cried out,- “inamina is
dead,” “mam ina is dead.” F.n
ter ing flic house they found her
weltering in her own blood. One
knife had (icnctrated near the
heart, the other had made a fear
ful gash on the neck. The men
were arrested but allowed to at
tend the funeral of tlicir victim.
They now lie in jail awaiting their
trial. This is another illustra
tion of the fearful curse of wins
ky, and should serve as a warn
ing to all who advocate the bar
room business in their comniuui
Q--
tween other classes of men. J list
as some farmers are not men of
good judgment: just as sonic mer
chants lack tact; just as some
lawyers and doctors lack energy,
so now and then preachers are
found who lack judgment, or en
orgy or tact. But we hesitate not
to atiii m that at a class, preachers
arc the best financiers in the
world, and truly remarkable for
their fine common sense. There
are no people who have so many,
and such heavy responsibilities
thrust upon them, who acquit
themselves so creditably as the
preachers. There is no calling in
this world that requires the exer
vise of such exquisite tact, and
world where rust does not corrupt.' present and witness rather a new

Ifon. W. K. Smith, of Albany,
lost a barn by fire a few weeks
since. It was clearly the work of
an incendiary, and a reward of
$50 was offered. A little 12 year
old boy of Mr. J. R. Forrester
concluded that he was the fellow
to do that job, anil getting him a
bottle of whisky, and a negro to
help him in his plan, he went to
the house of a negro whom he
suspected, gave him plenty ol
toddy, got him communicative,
and by abusing Capt. Smith pret
ty severely, led the negro on to
make a full statement of iiis
crime, while the little boy's negro
lay under the house taking it all
in. The result was that the negro
was arrested and now lies in the

any limit to what they are ex
peeled to do with this small
amount. They must dress as fine
on this $600 as the mail of $50,-

they do not go in a style worthy
of their people. Their wives and
children too, must appear to ad
vantage whenever they go out.
They dare not go sli:ihhiiy dress

rated, anil the general cxpccta
tion is that they shall lie better
educated than other people's cliil

and entertain liberally and fre
quently, anil this is very expen

they travel a great deal—and that
at their own cost usually. They

In reply to the question
I youthful correspondent, the
stiunion gives the following
I tory of the origin of this festival:
Mardi gras is the Tuesday
preceding Lent. In Roman
nounced and the public—with the
officers and members of the other
churches had been invited to unite
with the church in a public recep
tion of their new Pastor, Rev. G.
A. Nunnallv. At an early hour
this large and elegant church was
filled with the good [leople of this
city, of all creeds and sects. Tin-
object of the gathering was foi-
mally announced by Maj. W. M.
Reeves, when Mayor Comer was
i ivited to preside, who made a
s-nsiblc short talk, an 1 extended
in behalf of the city of Eufaula a
hearty welcome to this good man
and Iiis family. After this Maj.
Reeves, in behalf of the church.
Welcomed the Pastor with many
good and sensible words of en
couragement and love. He was
I followed by Rev. Mr.' Lowery, of
the Methodist church, inbelialfof
the other denominations of tiie
city, and the presentation of the
Holy Bitde. His speeeli was full
of brotherly love, and was well
timed, and will do much to unite
the Christian people in stronger
and more cudcring bonds of fra
lei mil fellowship, and remove all
sectarian bias or prejudice. Wclr?
were made to feel tiiat we were
indeed all children of one com
mon Father, and soldiers of one
grand army, banded by the love
of Christ, and striving only for
His honor and glory and the sal
ration of the world. After Mr.
Lowery, the Rev. Dr. Stout, in be
half of the Eufaula Association,
and the Stale of Alabama, ex
tended a welcome, cordial and
heart fell. His allusions to his
work and eo operation with the
Pastor in our grand and glorious,
old Georgia, made me feci proud
that 1 was a citizen of such a
{State, and lived among such a
J people.
| The rcsjioiise of the Pastor was
well-timed, and at times humor
oiis. lie replied that lie was mu
such a stranger after all—that lie
was a native of Alabama—Iiconlt
happened to be born on the other
side of the Chattahoochee; said
he had come to stay, to work and
do. for tiiC up building of the
church and the honor of his Mas
ter. His talk breathed a Catho
lic, Christian feeling throughout,
and we predict for the church a
season of growth and usefulness
never before witnessed in this
city. We know the man; knew
him when b >ys together among
the old red hills of Georgia—he
was then, as now, a leader— bril
liant, high toned, honorable as a
boy—he has developed into the
highest type of a Christian gen
