Just before the Griffin Silver convention last year a niece of Mrs. Skrine, of Toccoa, wrote the fol lowing beautiful allegory : ’Twas during the darkness of night. All the world seemed pro¬ foundly asleep. Through the still¬ ness of the mantled shadows gleam¬ ed a light—a golden beam—with pinions of silver. As it approached nearer I behelda “Bug”—a mighty “Bug’’—the body of which was of the glowing precious metal of gold. To this beautify! display of rich yellow light ware attached wings of 6iIver—sixteen in number—all laughing, sparkling, dancing, twinkling with glee ami merriment. Immediately above this remarkahle appearance was a lustrous arch, formed by the letters “Bimetal”— the name of the phenomenon given in this bow of promise, in colors of “Red, White, una Blue” —emblematical of our national strength, integrity, thjySffver and,^-purity. Securely uttached to wings were threads of magical brightness issuing from various parts of the room. And as the prismatic rays lanced I he surrounding darkness the shadows of night were dispelled. Then the panorama of a marshalled host were presented. Within the grasp of each uplifted hand were firmly held sixteen scintillating rays ! hat from tils sunshine of knowl formed the thread- which strength, pi-wel*. and mode of ‘ .....

I received a hope for this coming ban quit of prosperity. * Miss Mary Lizzie Jarrett, of of Tu galo Val ey. who is one the most beautiful and accomplished of young ladies in this section t to state, visited her friend.

JONES APOLOOIZBS. “Club will come to order,” said the president. “Bro. Johnston shut dat door dar.'” The regular business had been finished, when the preside i up from a pa per he had ading and said : “At demfs meetin of dis club, de question of admittin de fair six to confiliate wid dis club, was discuss¬ ed and voted on, de vote being in de negertive. So fur as I can ap¬ propriate de action of dis club, it were a far and squar veto on de wiinmen, aud I am satisfied wid de consequences, but it seems dar is others who am not, and dis paper brings charges against Bro. Reece Jones, for saying dat dis club was filled wid a lot ob fools. Now Bro. Jones, dis club demands a apology from you at onct, less hab it,” Bro. Jones who had been fidgeting in his chair for sometime arose very much confused. “Mr. President.” he said “dat— dat is t-a- very currus charge to 't.ing <-rgi-; .1 mart, when did I say ,i*t Friday,” h aid si voice over in )<• corner. Bro. Jones became mpr* composed now', and contin¬ u'd. "From lime prememorial to de p e^ent exodus, it hab been a law to vv m m ’h A I ' 1 v A b REECE JONES , ob all de land— law exacted by de Rulers and rightly too, to make reatertootun of any wrong dat may hab beep permitted. If a brother told a lie. den he return four-fold. If he cheat his nabor, den be erpol ogize. If be stole a boss, den he hab to bring him back, dis was a good law, and had de proper influ¬ ence on dc public mind.

It bab swayed de temper ment of de people of die day to, such an extent, dat it is now witnesses quite necessary to hab two when you tell de truth. But den I did tell a lie on die occasion, whan I sed dis club was filled wid fools, and I erpologize for it, dar is room for more yet. I wont tell any more lies, dar is not a brother who has de interest of dis club more to heart dan I hab. De influence# exasperated by dis club is now in Cuby, and de time ia not fur when it may be carried to ilia, and all de balance-of de civil¬ ized world. When we can to de Pological Fungchow Temple in Chiny, Indy t ’ d* Pological in Pological flag waving from d# North Pole, and de banner from da South Pole, when de whole earth is girted by de influence of dis club, and to be a Pological man is' as’ good as being mayor of de den I will fed dut we have done good work, and proud when some¬ one pints to me as one of de abo rignesa of dis disorganisation.” Bro. Jones took bia seat. ., . «... “Bro. Jones,” said the “dat may all be a very fine but I kaint see what you are dr»w* ing at. Dis club dont know thing about Indy and China, hut; dey know you said dis club was fill¬ ed wid fools, what vou got to say about dat?” Bro. parding, Jones replied.. I told “I axes de clubs a lie, de club is npt filled wid fools.” This apology was accepted Stamper by the club, ail except Bro. who seemed to think Bro. Jones' loud' spoke the word “filled,” to for the balance of his words. After some further business the club adjourned. Lonny Peyton, 'Wove In Habersham! % J Athens, Ga., April 3. Mr. E. R. Hodgson, of the Hodgson Company, has’in bis possessiioa e’ little piece of cloth with a peculiar history. It is woven out of keen cotton and very few people outside the older furmers recognise it as such. The bale of cotton from which the cloth was woven was picked in* ibooott the Eroy Level plantation,' in Louisiana, before the war be¬ tween the states. it during the war, and in 1866 sent it to New Orleans. It was stored there end there re-' mained until a month ago, when it was shipped to the Porter Manufae* turing Company, of Clarkefville,* W. Ga., of which Colonel James Robertson is president. There it, was woven into cloth, and a a piece of the cloth was sent by Colonel Robertson to the Hodgson Cotto**, Company of tnis city, vritll the remark that it wove better than new cotton. The price of cotton pound war went to a dollar a the average weight per baleto four hundred and four hundredandft**"*"’ pounds. If the owner bad w then he would have realized inveh 'ttj for his cotton, tvhicb sum at straight interest at 8 ,zjr< would have amounted to the present time. On the « hand storage and insurance bai $6 a year for thirty year*, of ora that of 8180. The bolding of Nankeen cotton -J§I was a* c affair. ... - ■■ T«* fsSSIfe
