The Atlanta Phonograph says it was offered money not to write an edito rial an the wild land committee’s re port and rejected the bribe.—Mari etta Journal. VFe don’t blame fhe Phonograph for-rejecting the proposed bribe, for .it was only ten dollars. According to tho way the other fellows were paid Christopher should have had at deast fifteen or twenty dollars.

'Tt is seTdonTthat one has a more sorrowful accident to record than that which resulted in the death of a bright little-boy in our city last Sun day. It seems that a little before sundotfc that evening, two little boys, sons of Capt. and Mrs. W. T. Mapp, of this city, were in then- father’s garden driving chickens off' the tnrnip bed, and each one was af ter a different chicken. The youn.- gerof the two, aged about 8 years, r threw at a chicken, and his older brother, Franklin, ran in front so that the stone hit him just behind the ear. The wound did not seem dangerous as the skin was not broken, bufthe little fellow lived bnt a short while, hardly an hour, haying bled to il«ath inwardly. We suppose that •the lick severed an artery. The pa rents of the little boy have the sin- cerest sympathy of ail our people, who feel that this death came not from any lack of care on the part of any one, but was simply one of those mischances for which human reason tos unable to account. The deceased was buried yester- ■ day evening, and his remains were ■followed to the cemetery by a large concourse of sympathising friends of the distressed family.—Rome Cou rier. The many friends of Capt. and "Mrs. Mapp here and wherever they arc known will deeply sympathise with them in their shocking be reavement.

Ours is a constitution made for n crisis to prevent crises hereafter for ever—to tie np the people so that they can’t hurt themselves, however hard they may try. The idea is that when we, the legislators, die, there will be very little sense left, and therefore [let ns put ours, like the Egyptian mummy, in shape for ever lasting preservation. Bnt it is all a mistake. Successive generations come and go, and generally improve on the methods and facillities for tak ing care themselves. They say old forgies with a mnch stronger voice than we say young fools, and ail our schemes to give an unperishable vi tality to our remedies for the evils of onr own time and day will be brush ed aside as the antequated cobwebs. Nothing will live in fundamental or statute law which is not based on the eternal principles of right, justice and sound usage. All these trashy laws which Georgia has been floating or trying to float for twenty-five or tnirly years—laws to evade or annual ■ contracts—law giving special reme- • dies to favored classes—stay laws and Nien laws, and so on, will only figure as monuments to folly and injustice. Whatever in onr statutory sys’em (in short), the offspring of what is called an emergency—a crisis—a ■sensation or prejudice, will only fig ure in the inture as a badge of fraud jind folly. poor—we refer to the venerable Sec retary of State—Col.

We notice, however, that th<i Clipper seems to think thataP. the. bad results that come from fne present State government, as v>e]l all the alleged bad results, arr clearly chargeable to Governor Colquitt. The Clipper seems to t.mve got hold of a rule that won’t tv or k Loth ways. The trath is, Governor Colquitt’s administration has been a good one. 'i.'hat there are defects iu it, has not be-in denied, even by the most ardent friends of the Governor. So there have been in every administration Georgia has had, and there always will be as long as humanity is fallible. The right wav is to give the Gover nor and other State officers credit when they deserve it, and blame when they deserve that. The fact is, the investigations now pending, in relation to the State offi cers, were instigated and begun by the “organized and if any officers are found guilty, they will be proper ly punished by the “organized.” It is a credit—-a vast and lasting credit —to the Democrats of Georgia that they will not tolerate corruption, or the suspicion thereof, in their own ranks. Their readiness to investi gate the conduct of officers elected by themselves, is the strongest proof they can give of the purity of the party. They are now holding their public servants to an account in a way that any party might be proud of. The man who talks abo it “white-washing” by the Democrats of Georgia, is simply babbling his own folly. The Democrats put these men into office, and if they have be come crooked, the Democrats are go ing to put them out. The party re pudiates wrong in its own body, and is now at work purging itself. There are bad men among the Democrats, bnt they will not be kept in office. The exodns fever is breaking ont among the colored people in the country. The happiest promise of fered for Kansas is a white wife for every man and a white husband for every woman. This is no joke, but the actual truth. The poor fools are being deluded with this promise. We do not know whether miscege nation is lawful in Kansas or not but would warn our negro friends against the folly of such a hope. Even if they could marry a Kansas white woman Bhe would be no ac count—not worth going that far after. Go, if yon want to, bnt if you value yonr own peace, let alone the Yankee white trash. One en thusiastic buck says he would stick his arm in the (ire and burn it off to the shoulder, to get to marry one of the Kansas white ladies.—Rome Tribune.

DOWN This year in America will be ex traordinarily prosperous if the Lon don Saturday Review is a good prophet. “So far as one can judge,” says that journal, “the improvement in the United States is real. It is based, as we have just seen, on an ex tension of cultivation and an excep tionally good return for a succession of years; and, after all, an increase of the fruits of the earth is the foundation j of all true wealth.

Collector Clark, the general rev. enue spotter of Georgia, is in trou ble. There is a law which prohibits government officials accepting pre sents from their underlings. Clark clever fellow, and his under spotters made him a present of an elegant silver service. Charges have been preferred against him for this violation, and Clark pleads ignorance, promises to return the gift, and do so no more. Commissioner Raum accepts the acunowledgement, and Clark goes free ; but the poor far mer who innocently sells a twist of tobacco, gives a sick neighbor a gill of peach brandy, or fails to cancel the stamp on a second-hand barrel, don’t get off so easy.—Headlight. The truth of the matter is, man is oftener punished in this world by the violation of some known law than in. any other way. He who eats stale lobster salad on an excursion in July need not blame the Almigli ty if colic and cholera morbus should put in a bill for consequential dam ages.

If Heaven swiftly punished every infraction of its commandments the world would be a solitude.—Chronicle. from its staff, won for him the ad miration of his comrades, and in spired the brave defenders of old Moultrie with a loftier heroism. For this act he was offered a com mission by Governor Rutledge, who said to him: “You have won a sword, sir, and yon must wear it.” Nay, sir,” replied Jasper, “I am not wor thy of the trust; adversity has been my only schoolmaster, liberty my on ly Bcboolmistress. I can not mingle with those who are superior to me in education and manners without ex posing myself to deserved contempt Let me alone; let me serve my coun try iu the way that suits me best, as an humble and devoted laborer in the cause of freedom.” Governor Rat- ledge yielded to this refusal, but pre sented him with the sword which the Governor wore about his person. Probably the most desperate feat of arms of the Revolution was the release by Jasper and Newton of about twelve American prisoners and the capture of the guaid of ten Brit ish soldiers. The circumstances surrounding thiscxploit were roman tic in the extreme and worthy of the days of chivalry. While- recou- noitering the British camp at Ebene- zer, Jasper learned from a Mrs. Jones that her husband, then in irons char ged with desertion ot the royal cause, was about to be sent with other prison ers to Savannah, there to be tried, and, doubtless, execute’. Thedistieis of the poor woman and her child touched the heart fo the impulsive Irishman, and he formed the desper ate resolution of attempting a rescue. The pii60uers, under guard, started far Savannah. Jasper and Newton followed them until the party arrived at what is now known as Jasper Springs, abuut'two miles from Sa vannah, oil the Augusta road. Here the guard stopped lor water, resting their arms against the trees. Jasper and Newton each seiz-d a musket, shot two of the guard down, dashed out the brains of two mure ->ith tl.o clubbed guns, leaped between the re maining st.\ soldiers and the other muskets and possessing themselves of the loaded weapons, compelled the surrender of Die six, released the prisoners, escorted them to the American army at Purysburg, and safely returned Jones to his wife aud child. The death of Jasper was in keep ing with his life. The attack on Sa vannah was disastrous. The French and Americans were repulsed; the bugle had sounded the retreat when the flag which Mrs. Elliot hud pre sented to him, and which he had promised to guard “until eternity,” was seen by him trailing in the dust. Lieutenants Buslie and Iltiine had been killed while bearing that ban ner, and it was from llnme’s dying grasp that Jasper seized it at the close of the action and the day. Jas per made good his promise. lie guarded it “until eternity.” While bearing it he fell, and in falling said o Major Htirry, a companion iu arms, “I have got my fnrlongb. That sword was presented to me by Gov ernor Rutledge for my services in the defense of Fort Moultrie. Give it to my father, tell him I have worn it with honor. If he should weep, tell him his son died in the hope of a bet ter life. Tell Mrs. Elliot that I lost my life supporting the colors she pre sented to our regiment. If you should ever see Joues, his wife and son, tell them that Jasper is gone, but that the remembrance of the bat tle which he fought for them brought a secret joy to his heart when it was about to stop its motion forever. Tell all my friends who shall re member to ask for me that their poor friend has fought his last fight, has struck his last blow; and may the blessings of Providence rest upon my country and her cause.” “So fell Sergeant Jasper; his last blowstrnck iu the cause of America; his last shout a gathering erv for the defense of her honor; his last wish a prayer for her prosperity! So fell Sergeant Jasper. The sand of oui streets has drunk np^his blood, and the soil of our city has encompassed his bones. Who has written his epi taph ? Who has built up his monu ment?” To write his epitaph, to build his monument is the object of our Asso ciation, and it should be onr proudest pleasure as it is onr most sacred du ty. Let then the lovers of liberty everywhere unite with us in rearing a tribne to modest heroism, as exem plified in the life and death of Wil liam Jasper. John McIIahon, J. II. Estill, John R.

Solomon’s wisdom was never more apparent than when he warned not to lose sight of the rod. Misplaced switches have wrought great evil to the race in these latter days.

One world suppose that such a creed must destroy all the spiritual ins.toots aud given a loose rein to sensualism; but a Christain critic has declared that the moral code of the Buddha, in pureness, excellence and wisdom, is only second to that of the Divine Lawgiver himself.” Hero, then, we have a religion which was established six centuries at least before- lha birth of Christ, and which st.etc.iea from Nrrthi r . Hindustan through Ceylon and the whole eastern peninsula into Chino, Japan, Thibet, and Ceutrai, Asia, ex tending to Siberia and even Swedish Lapland, and which may be rightful ly termed ‘the prevailing religion of the world,’ that offers as the highest and noblest inducement to godliness what wc have been taught to consid er a crowning curse. Four hundred millions of our fellow-creatnres look forward as ‘the consummation, most devoutly to be wished, to the dream less, unwakened everlasting sleep, the very thought of which fills the Chris tian mind with nnacconntable dread That Buddhism satisfies its votaries is proved by the fact that it lives and grows without the aid of any politi cal machineiy whatever.

C (, ll0 siens nV dem oralization or decrepitude, to utn li umaii appearance it is destined to gland as long as the world stands, teaching one great lesson, if no more —that the belief in immortality, nat ural as it seems to us, inestimably precious as it is to us, is not, iu the opinion of a third of the human umily, indispensable to religion. “This lesson indirectly suggests a kind of immortality which, we think, receives far less attention than it de serves. Shakspcare, speaking through Marc Antony, says : “The evil that men do lives after them ; the good is oft interred with their bones.’ If the sentence were reversed it would be nearer the truth. Much, very much, of the evil done perishes with the evil-doer, bnt every substantial good, large or small, is, in one way or an other, immortal. Take Sliakspeare himself as an illustration. His pri vate life—i: we may trust the scanty and doubtful biographies-had much in it that had better been omitted ; bnt the evil he may have wrought has long since faded into oblivion, while the benefits bis matchless ge nius conferred upon mankind grow brighter and dearer with the flying years. Johnson’s oft quoted line has a deep meaning : -Not of an age, but for all time.’ The man Shakespeare was ‘of an age,’ and died two hnu- dred and sixty-three years ago. The poet Shakespeare ‘for all time,’ and lives more really and vividly to-day than whtn he walked the earth. A spoonful of dust is all that is left of his body, but his braiu grasps the world. If we could believe that such a majestic intellect was quench ed forever in the grave, yet interwo ven as its products are with the cul ture of humanity and keeping pace with the development of nnmanity, is it not practicallv immortal ? Sup pose the soul of Newton were blot ted out of existence at his expiring breath, did it end then and there ? la not its work still going on ? Can we imagine the time will ever come when the intellectual influences set in motion by the man who found and fixed the keystone of the uni verse will cease to operate ? If we cannot, is not Newton to all intents and purposes immortal, even if we accept the dismal doctrines of Budd ha or the cold creed of materialism ? Washington, is he not imrmrtal ? Does not his spirit still inspireevery people straggling for liberty, every soldier and statesman who; prefers duty to glory ar d public welfire to personal fame ? Can his example ev er die? Will it not live and bsathe and burn while sentient being* ten ant this'planet ? Whoever coitnb- ntes, however’little, to the’ stock of human happiness or knowledge, or aids ever so feebly the slow and stea dy march of human progress, has won the prize of immortality. His name may be forgotten, but th< seed he planted will have its fruits reck oned at the great harvest-home. No noble and unselfish life, hovever humble and obsenre, can feel tie fin ger of annihilation. . It carries the immortal principle in its boson. It has added to the sum of goolness and goodness is a celestial crature that conquers death. No kinc act or word, carelessly done or spken though it may be, can die. It touch- and Constitutionalist for following summary of the articles, which are formally set out at great length, with the precision of a good pleader, but the substance and gra amen of the charges are given in the summary: Article 1.
