WORDS OF WISDOM FITLY SPOKEN.
A kind-hearted gentleman in Mich
igan lias printed in beautiful style a
thousand copies of Mr. Jas. R. Ran-,
dall’s editorial on tho death ot the
President. These he has distributed
over that state as evidence of the deep
grief of the southern people for the
sad tragedy, and their genuine sym
pathy with the northern masses in all
that concerns tho perpetuity of the
government, and its sacred honor. It
was a happy thought. For our part,
we are con ten: that the editorial of
the gifted ltundall should be the epit
ome of the expression of southern feel
ing on this melancholy, yet fruitful
theme. Presenting tho noblest emo
tions of the heart with rare felicity of
language, concise, manly, yet with
that pathetic "touch of nature which
makes the whole world kin,” it was in
every sense worthy of tho fair repute
of its author. It would be difficult to
say more in its praise.
And so this quiet unassuming lit
terateur, who with the ringing martial
strains of "My Maryland,” in times
gone by, did much to inspire a deters
mined spirit ot resistance among the
southern people, now has utilized his
fino genius for the more beneficent
end, the pacification of a great people.
Mr. RaGdall is a representative man,
and it is most fortunate that he has
written so fitly and so well.
WIIAT DOES IT SIGNIFY?
Intelligence received from the Wars
ncr Observatory, Rochester, N. Y.,
announces the discovery ot a new
comet located in the constellation ol
Virgo. It is a striking coincidence
that this new and bright comet ap
peared at the same hour President
Garfield was breathing his last. It
was first seen by K. E. Barnard
Nashville, Tenn.,who has made claim
through Prof. Swift tor the Warner
prize of 8200 in gold. This makes
the fifth comet seen since May first,
and of thisnumber four have appeared
iron) almost the same spot in the
heavens.
It is stated that Senator Edmunds
and Senator Garland, the one
publienn and the other democrat, have
arranged a little plan of their own for
organizing the senate which is to this
effect: that each parly shall hold a
caucus and agree that Senator Antho
ny shall be made acting vice-president,
the democrats shall have the secretary
and the sergeant at arms, apd the
republicans all the ccmmittces as now
organized. This is a very handsome
scheme for the republicans, but the
democrats’ share of the turkey is
rather slim. We have an idea that
this harmonious arrangement will
never be carried out.
THE UMYKRSITY OF GEORGIA.
Other Points of Interest About this Splendid
Institution. The Free Tuition a Reality.
There are one on two other mat 1 -
ters-that came out iu our conversation
with Dr. Mell which we desire to call
attention to.
Dr. Mell was particularly concerned
about this bill in reference to free
tuition and now that it has come out
all right we doubt not that he will
feel that the institution is on a fair
looting with all others in the state.
With this featnre added, tho induce
ments held out to young men by the
University aro superior to tliose of
any other college.
There is one thing especially, casu
ally referred to yesterday, which
must attract attention and that is,
the cheapness of board. Fortunately
tho school is not dependent on out
side boarding houses lor the accom
modation of its students, hut has
connected witli it two or three of its
own, for which no high rent has to be
paid and they are presided over by
ladies who fully understand wha t is
required. These can furnish accom
modations to every young man who
comes from a distance and in a style
equal to the best. And this board is
lower than any where else in the
state. For board itself only S12 per
month is charged, while a furnished
room, servant’s attention tfcc. wili
bo famished for $1.50 more, making
$13.50. For the same thing at other
schools $15.00 is charged, while at
other piaces in the city the price is
even more.
In addition to this, the plan, lias
other advantages. It is uuder the
direct control and supervision of the
Chancellor and is highly conducive to
quiet study and attention to college
duties. There are few extraneous
influences to call off the mind from a
constant application to matters of
most importance.
In our interview with Dr. Mell a
good deal was said in reference to
other matters, especially the branch
colleges, the district high schools etc.,
but we feel now that it is unnecessa
ry to reler to these further. The
free tuition feature has overcome
all, or nearly all influences that might
have been detrimental to the prosper
ity of the University, and it stands
out, in reality as in name, as the
head of tho educational institutions
of the state. We congratulate the
Chancellor and his associates in the
faculty, and all friends of the Uni
versity.
We cannot help feeling that the
the grand old institution which is now
nearing its centennial birth day,is en
tering upon a career of uuclulncss it
has never before known.
SHERMAN S MARCH TO THE SEA,
A Hitherto Unpublished Letter I’rom General
Joe Johnston to Col. Lewis Washington.
From tho Now YorkSnn.
Macon, August 13, 1864.—My
Dear Sir: I have had the pleasure
to receive your friendly letter. The
reasons assigned for removal are, Mail
ing to arrest the advance of tho ene
my to the vicinity of Atlanta, far in
the interior ol Georgia,’ and ‘not ex
pressing confidence that 1 could defeat
or repel him.’ After the battles ol
the Wilderness, General Lee adopted
precisely the course which I followed
and gained great glory by it. He tell
back as far as l bad done, and much
more rapidly—or ratber less slowly.
The enemy also penetrated much more
deeply and extensively into Virginia
than into Georgia. I have never
known sensible men to regard confi
dent language as evidence of merit.
A few days before my removal, Geu.
Bragg assured me that he had main
tained in Richmond that Sherman’s
army was stronger than Grant’s. It
is very certain that General Lee’s
course lias satisfied the government
and country and added to bis great
glory.
The relative strength ol Sherman’s
army and mine made the chances of
victory, in case we attacked, in Itis
favor. At Dalton he had a fortified
pass close In his rear as a place of ref
uge in case of inisbap. In moving
south he advanced fortifying, and
therefore always hal an intrenched
position close behind him. Victory
could not have been decided lor us
under such circumstances, while de
feat would have been ruinous. We
therefore kept near him to take ad
vantage of any exposure of himself
that lie might make, but he made
none of a general character, such as
would have justified battle,and we re
pelled It’s almost daily partial assaults
with trifling loss, while he on all such
occasions suffered heavily. We fell
back before him ninety-three miles in
seventy-two days. The sum of our
losses was about 10,000. His wo es
timated at five times as much—from
the opinions of experienced officers,
reports of prisoners taken daily, and
statements of Northern papers. This
course, if continued, would soon have
so reduced the disparity ol numbers
as to give us the advantage iu battle;
and if we could have defeated the ene
my on this side of tho Chattahoochee,
his destruction was certain. I there
fore thought, and still thiuk, my plan
of operation correct.
We are living here quietly and
comlortably. in spite ot the excessive
heat. Give my regards to "Whiting,
and believe me yours very truly,
J. E. Johnston.

Clerks office Superior Court said county:
certify that this is a true extract from the minutes
of Clarke Superior Court. Given under my hand
and official signature, this Sept., 22,1881.
JOHN 1. UUuGIXS, Clerk.
When a President takes the oath of
office it is the custom to present him
an open Bible to he kissed. The
words upon which the lips of Presi
dent Arthur fell were the first and
second verses of the thirty first psalm;
‘In Thee, O Lord, do I put my
trust; let me Dever be ashamed: de
liver me in Thy righteousness.
,Bow down Thine ear to me ; dc*
liver me speedily ; be Thou my strong
rook, lor an house of defence to save
me,’
The demonstrations of mourning
over President Garfield’s death in
England, France and other countries
were general and heartfelt. The like
of it was never known before in the
case of any foreign ruler’s death.
President Arthur has a son sev
enlcen years of age, named alter him,
and a daughter eleven years old imra-
ed Nellie. lie has one brother, Major
William Arthur, U. S. Army, and
three tinters, two married and one sin
glo.
Guitkau could do a graceful thing
by pleading guilty and submitting to
be bung in short order without so
much bother.
We wonder il Guiteau really has
any hope ot coming clear. We should
like to see the jury that will give
verdict of acquittal.
WIIA TLONGKESS DliqFOK MRS. LINCOLN.
Washington Star.
It is a matter of discussion at this
time what Congress will do for Mrs.
Garfield. In this case the act passed
in relation to Mrs. .Alary Lincoln,
whose husband was also assassinated,
while President, is of iuterest. There
were throe acts of tho kind passed by
Congress. Tho first act passed when
Congress came together after the as
sassination of President Lincoln was
as follows: “That the Secretary of
the Treasury pay out of any money
in the treasury not otherwise appi o-
priated to Mrs. Mary Lincoln, widow
ol Abraham Lin join, Into President of
the United States, or in the event of
her death, before payment, the sum
of825,000. Provided always, that any
sum of money which shall ' have keen
paid to the personal representatives
ot the said Abraham Lincoln since his
death, on account ot bis salary as
President of the United States for
the current year shall be deducted
from the said sura of $25,000.” The
amount thus granted to Mrs. Lincoln
was the salary of tho President for
one year. Now that salary is $50,-
006. In February, 1866, Congress
passed the following act: "That all
letters and packets carried by post to
and from Mary Lincoln, widow of the
late Abraham Lincoln, be carried free
of postage during her natural life,” In
1870 the following act was passed ;
‘That the Secretary of the Interior be
and is hereby authorized to place the
name of Mary Lincoln, widow ot
Abraham Lincoln, deceased, late
President of the United Slates, on the
pension roll, and allow and pay her a
pension at the rate of $3,000 per an.
num from and after the passage of
this act.”
N. Y. Sun : “September has ruin
ed such fragments of Mr. Vennor’s
reputation as still remained to perish
During the past six days of uuexcep-
lionally hot weather we were to have
expected frosts, according to the rash
Canadian. Ilad Ur. Vennor lived in
the days when prophets who proved
lalse were destroyed, his epitaph would
have been written long ago.”
A Curious Law.
A curious provision of the criml
nal code of Germany, for which there
is no analogy in English or Ainerr
can legislation, makes deliberate hom
icide, where it is perpetrated at the
request of the victim, a lesser grade
of crime than murder, and places it
within the discretion of the courts to
impose as low a sentence as three
years’ imprisonment <or the offense.
Under this law a miller’s apprentice
of Berlin has just been sentenced for
cutting his wife’s throat Ho was out
of work and money, and he and his
wife formed the resolution to com'
mit suicide together by taking poison.
Ilia wife, however, drained the enp
containing the mixture alone, leaving
none for him, and alter awhile begged
him to kill her at once, to put an end
to the suffering that ensued. He
complied with her request by making
several gashes iu her throat. This
state of facts was deemed sufficient to
warrant a sentence of only four years’
imprisonment.
It is a good thing to know how to
enjoy the blessings sent us that we
may therefore not only have them, but
have their intended results.
Guitkau has expressed a desire to
havo Hon. Emory Storra defend
him. Why not Conkiing too ?
The business of constancy chiefly is
bravery to stand to and atoutly to
suffer those inconveniences whiob are
not otherwise possible to be avoided,
