There is no doubt that tha r ctor
of St. George’s church, Leadville, be
longs to the church Militant. He has
just proved it beyond contradiction,
and at this moment public i-ccUineut
in Leadville pronounces him the ablest
and most powerful clergyman for his
weight in the United States, xvh ; le a
committee of leading citizens is about
to present hiui with a silver mounted
revolver as a testimony of respect and
admiration.
The Rev. Mr. Withers earned this
enviable reputation a fexv weeks ago
while engaged in marrying the xxeTl*
known Mr. Roaring Bill to pne of the
most beautiful and accomplished
daughters of Leadville. The bridet
groom was a man of most excellen
reputation, having killed three men
in hand to-haml lights and wounded
number of others. He was not a
corap inied to the altar by any grooms*
man, and the bride was similarly d
void of bridesmaids, though their pla
was to some extent taken by her three
brothers. Mr. Withers, who up to
that time had been known as an ex.
tremely pcajeable nun, and was no:
supposed to have a particle of fights
ing ability about him, had been warn
ed that the bridegroom was very
quick-tempered and exceedingly jeal*
ou*, and that he would do well to
•‘ladle out the service pretty consid
erable mild.” To this warning, how
ever, lie paid no atteution, bouig de.
turiuinud to do his duty, no matter
".•hut the consequences might be.
Thu service proceeded smoothly
mitil the clergyman reache I the point
w icio ne asked the br.degrooiu it he
took thu ‘ worn m” to be iiis wedded
wiib. To this Mr. Rowing Bill re-
phed by remarking that he xvas about
to marry a “lady,’’ and that any m hi
who c died her a “woman” must be
remarkably anxious to incur the ex
panse of a personal funeral. Paying
no attention to tnis remark, the cler-
gy in;,n proceeded, and inquired if the
bridegroom would pro ni.-e to love,
cherish and protect the biide. This
was regaroed by Mr. Roaring Bill in
the light of an uxueuessary asking of
fooli-h questions, “In course I do,’’
he replied ; “xvliat do you take ni
ter ? Do you mean to insinuate that 1
am a playin’ it onta her ? I want you
to understand that this hyer’s a square
deal, and if you don’t just go atieid
with your marryiu’ and drop this
askin’ of impertinent questions, it’ll
had to difficulties. You hear nr-.’’
Still the courageous clergyman, heed
less of the brexviug storm, ignored the
bridegroom’s interruptions, and read
the service with cool ami steady coar
ago. Presently, he iuquired ot the
bride if she would promise to love,
honor and obey her husband. At this
point, the latter drew hit revolx'er
and informed the clergyman that he
xvas last ripening tor mo grave. “Any
more personal questions w.ll require
me to answer with thish yer xveepon.
I don’t wish in m ike a row in a church,
but il you will have olie.j ist continue
as you have begun. I’m a peac.-able,
long sufierin’ man, but the holiest
feelins of this lady’s heart isn’t goin*
to be pried into by no mail xviihout
lie bears from me-”

Still the c ergyraan pursued the even
tenor of his way. One might have
imagined that lie xvas deaf, so utterly
heedless xvas he of the irregular ro -
sponses made by the bridegroom. The
spectators xvlio bad assembled to wit
ness the ceremony were making bets
freely as to whether Mr. Bill xvould
kill hiip at the first fire or xvhethcr he
would merely mark him with a bullet
for future identification. Contrary to
the general anticipation, the bride
groom made no further interruption,
either by xverd or builet, and the cer
emony came to an end. Ad might
have ended peaceably had not Mr.
Withers, determined to do his whole
duty, supp’o'iicnted thu ceremony by
kissing the bride.
The first bullet missed its nark,
and the bridegroom, while pausing to
adjnsi his aim, remarked that “this
painful immorality <>a lha part or the
clergy must be cheeked.” Just as he
xvas about to fire the second shat—
having got the clergyman’s right eir
in line—the brother ot the brid •
sprang on him and took awav his pis
tol. At the same moment, Air. With
ers tore off 1ns surplic-', and, leaping
over the railing, struck out at Mr.
Roaring Bill in a most lcaatilul and
scientific way.
A ring xvas immediately- formed.
The bride . limbed oil the baptismal
font and alternately encouraged each
combatant with such inspirit tug re--
marks as: “Noxv, then, Bill, bust him
in the eye,” or, “Hooray, I’arson. the
eyes of the church is on vur! Back
up your religion liko a little man !”
The eager sqiectators sxvarmed into the
church and fought for good positions in
the pu-pit,. The betting at first xv.is
n tiie bridegroom, but at tbe eod of
leu minutes large odds xvere offered on
the clereynvan. His. courage xvas un
doubted, and his pugilistic skill was
simply astonishing. His adversary
scarcely touched him, xfhilc the elers
•jyman danced around him, now clos
ing an eye and now shaking the
foundations of his teeth with smiling
confidence that creat d the wildest
enthusiasm. In twenty minutes and
five rounds he had reduced bis man to
peifi ct helplessness. Mr. Roaring
Bill cried “enough,’’ the spectators
cheered, and the bride, descending
from her porch, kissed the clergyman
with hearty frankness, and informed
him that she should never allow any
husl«u<l of hers to come between her
and her religion.
Such was the public enthusiasm in
Leadville over the clergyman's victos
ry that no less than thirty h-ading
citixera came forxrard and offered to
be confirmed as an evidence of their
good will provided the rector xvould
refrain from^ interfering with cards
playing and other usual Sunday recre
ations. As has been sad, the admi
ration of Leadville is about to bt
expressed in silversmouuted pistols,
and tiicre is no doubt that the pros
perity of St. George’s church and the
popularity of Mr. Withers are fully
assured.

Railroad Possibilities .in
Georgia.
Th'i M. and B | Road.
On the 14th inst. the following na-
ier xvas served on Governor Colquitt:
i Slate of Georgia, Fulton county. To
his Excellency, A 1 H. Colquitt,
Governor ot the state of Georgia:
You are hereby notified, that I for
the company which I represented,
clrim to be the highest and best bid
der at tiie sale of the lc iso of the Mas
con and Brun-xvick railroad (the pro-
peity of the State) at Macon Georei t*
on the Gth day of Novemlier, 187'.l.
and that I demand and c'aiin the sa : I
railroad under the lease coutract a-
set forth in the provisions of an act
pissed by tha General Assembly of
the State ot Georgia, approve 1 Sept
ember 3, 1S79, and acts amendatory
s the same. I insist, that under the pr i
t viou ot this special act which must
be construed strictly, especially the
-ec iu.l section of the same, xvhich
reads as follows: [Hero follows the
second section of the act.] That there
xvas leasing at said time, and a full
iispodiio-i of tin pxperty under the
law to one of the bidders. I further
insist that I was the highest and
b "-t bidder at the time tho said rail-
t-l xv h declared leased, and that it
xv is so declared by the auctioneer
trying the sale. As to the tact that
I xv a such bidder and thet there was
a sale of the lei-m, I am now ready to
sh-itv aad ask permission to snbmit to
your Excellency proof of the same for
consideraiinn.
I further ia4<t that there xvas no
legal bid ma lc by any other person
for llm lease of said road, xvho had un
der the provsioas of this special act,
a right to bid at said sale or a right to
lei-if said roa I, and that for these rea
sons I am. when' I comply with the
terms of th- act,' entitled to said rail
road, and these facts I am ready]to
sh >w your Excellency, and
hero ask that I may do
the sun-". Being ready to
show all that { have stated as facts,
and resting the rights of my company
upon the law, I most respectfully
demand the carrying out of the terms
of the learn ontract, according to the
provisions of the above referred to act;
holding myself in readiness to comply
with all of its provi-ions. Respectfully
submitted. EL T. Paine,
For the Company.
This 14th day ol Novemlier, 1879.
The Macon Teltgrip'i says it is well
kuown that after tho close’ of tiie bid
ding Mr. Paine, who did the bidding
for Mr. Siautou’s party, took the
names of nearly one hiiudred persons
wlio agreed xviin him that he was the
highest bidder at the sale of the lease,
and he will probably use their testi
mony in tbo furtherance of his claims
before tlit Governor. Failing to ob
tain tbe road under tin- present de
mand, lfis likely an inju icti m will be
rcsortedjco to prevent aaoUicr side.
{Atlanta Conatl: ution.]
It is uot at all impossible that we
shad have within one year from this
date three grand lines, each under
sympathetic control, and all three
competing with each other, stretching
from the west to the ocean. The
three xvestern points"ot rendezvous
will be, in thu event, Cincinnati, Ev
ansville and Louisville. Each ofthese
lines' will pour the current of freight
and .travel through Georgia. The
threo i ocean points touched will bo
Brunswick, Savannah and Port Roy*
al. We shall have one line under
the control of Mc-srs. Cole and
Brown, embracing the Nashville and
Chatt mooga road, which stretches
from Evansville to Chattanooga; the
Western and Atlantic, xvhich stretches
from Chattanooga to Atlanta, and the
*>I icon and Brunswick, xvhich, xvith
i s extension, xvill reach from Atlanta
11 Brunswick. The seco ul lino xvill
be controlled, as far as we are con
cerned, by Air. Wa-iley, anil xvill
comprise only tho Cincinnati South
era, which connects Cincinnati wi h
Chaltauo >ga, and the C-ntral which,
xvith thd extension from Carrolltou,
will o nnret Savannah with Chatta-
uooga. The third lim xvill be con
trolled by the Georgia railroad peo
ple, we should guess, and xvill com
piiso the Louisville and Nashville,
xvhich r'.iuiies Birm ingham now,
through the Al ib iim and Chat anon,
ga wlich it contro's, will roach At
lanta tur.righ life Gen "gi i Western
extension, an-J xvill d "uhlless li-re
combine with the Georgia road for an
outlet at Port Royal. Them three
systems complete I won 1 develop,the
int'Te.sts »f tho South in the most
wood'-rful decree We -houl-l have
Iran*-All antic South American
-hips at e ich of our ports, an I direct
trade xvith all the world xvould soon
lie an ace xmplishe I fact.
Of course all this development de
pends x it :rely aii-l ab>o utely upon
the sUQce-siut leasing of tiie Macon
and Bninsxvick road, in the spirit of
the bill providing tor the I *as3. If the
road is not leased or sold—if the lease
or sale is blocked iu any way—if it is
postponed or defeated xi _• sli d! have
none of this development beams * none
of it will be needed. If tiie lease is
effected, but the road by any strate-
geni or assault falls into the hands of
the Ceiitr d road or of persons friend
ly to that road, these devel.qmieuls
will be blocked. In that case th-
lesses would simply decline to build
the exten-ion. They are alloxvcJ five
years in xvhich to do it before the
lease is perfected. They would simp
ly hold the road for five years, and
then forfeit the lease a-ni give it up.
The grand schemes that ivc have out
lined therefore depend absolutely, ns
xve Imve said before, upon tae success
ful leasing of the M. & B railroad, and
its lease to persons who are in no way
conn-ctcd xvith the Central road, or
interested in its welfare. It is the
key to thu situation, ami in the hands
of the right men xvill u dock Vast
treasures and inaugurate vast enter
prises. Leased to men xvho xvill ti-c
it as the stale designed, and extend it
to Atlanta, it will st irt, in our opin
ion, within sixty days, txvo other ex
tensions—one from C.irrollon to Chat
tanooga, and the other from B rming-
bam to Atlanta.

tion ; the South needs sympathy and
respect Iu my judgment what they
need is a realizing sense that they are
safely and securely within lue Union,
bound up in its destinies, in which
they arc to sh ire the bles-i gs as xvell
as the burden; lint that they are not
to be iu the Union except upon terms
thoroughly contistcnt xvith their
self-respect. Everything is gained by
appealing to all that is higher ami
bettur among them, and to case this
spirit of domination aud constant ex
pressions of solf-eonseioui superiority,
sending men doxvn there to see that
the trials are conducted as they think
they ought to be, telling them they
c on trial, and all that sort of thing.
No s ich spirit ought to exist, and I
would not treat this Union as an ex
periment, I would treat it as a. fixed
fact that they are in the Union and
are going to stay there; that they are
going to be part o.t onr people ami
part of the government, and not only
expect them to sustain and help it,
but in ike that part of the country a
source of strength to the whole. I
want the people ot the South to feel
that they are a respected and essential
riion of this Union and they cannot
i anything else. Now, in order to
do that, we mast make their position
in the Union one of honor in the first
place, and then if they fall away from

precede the other, and that tfiey have

went with a number of other gem
men to Westminster, S. C., to see
the Clemeut Attachment xvhich the
Messrs. Stribbling are working there,
aud from his account of the trip xve
extract the following sober xvords
concerning the factory:
“Mr. Stribbling and his younger
brother received us gladly.’ They
are gentlemen of good education,
good manners and addre-s. Ingeni
ous and industrious, the; have been
lor eighteen months quietly running
their iaciory aw ay off in the woods,
three miles from the railroad—making
about ten dollars a day aud giving
pleasant emp'oyment to a fexv poor
girls. It is a slow business and a lit
tle business, but it is simple and comes
ivithiu reach of a gi cat many of our
substantia) farmers. A " common
country uin xvill lint from five to six
bales:! day, but it tukes this one three
days to gin one. The saws are very
small and only half a > inch a part and
run slowly so as t<> give the carder
time to do ns w-ork. The lint is taken
clean from the seed, coming of!
straight a id smooth, every fibre in
parallel Hues and tho staple unbroken.
The attachment does not spin it but
only cards and puts the lint into sliv
er ready for the spinning jennies,
xvhich U' e the same as in other facto
ries. Tie yarn from this sliver is
certainly strong, even and beautiful.
It ought l<> he better than yarn made
f om crn-hexl anil tangled cotton la
k 'li from compr ssed b.dc->, whether
it i* or nut.
There is no gushing fortune in the
business; no 100 per cent nor 50 but
it seems to he n solid substantial hi
ves'maul for the farmers of our conn-
try and xvill add -5 per cent to the
value of our cotton crop. Mr. Kim-
lnll is a close o'server and has expe
rience in manufacturing the gnat
stup'e. Judge Hendei son, of the ag
ricultural bureau, knows all about
gins.
and machinist of largo experience.
I gathered from them a favorable
verdh-t upon lhis nexv enterprise after
they had ihomugldy examined and
considered its operation.
“This machine’’ said Mr. Kimball
“has no striking advantage over our
cotton factories as a process of turn
ing cotton into thread Imt I xvould
rallir have a hundred thousand dol
lars invested in them than ir. a factory.
It would bo better for me and for
planter and the country at large.’’
Ungkammatical State Papers.—
President Lincoln was very fond of
the infinitive mcod |md with it often
n-ed a qualifying adverb, which be
placed bx tween the members} of the
verb, thus violating one of the plainest
rtiles of grammatical composition. The
separation of the sign to from tbe re-t
ot the verb by an adverb is a slipshod
method oi writing, and one that ought
to be di-connti nanced by every lovei
of pure EDgiish. President Lincoln's
expressions, “to be falsely drawn,”
“to again recommend.*’ to quietly
set dow n,” ‘to constantl y anticipate,
xvere bots in all of bis most notable
State papers President Hayes in thi-
respqct, it in no other, appears to fol
low in Lincoln’s footsteps. In his
brief Thanksgiving proclamation lie
calls upon the people “to devoutly
l>e6ecch,” and this is not the first in
states of this erroi* in his public pa
pers. There should be some one
connected xvith the State Department
whose duty it is to read ox-er the
official utterances of the Clieif Magis
trate and to conform them to the ac
cepted rules of grammar.
Female Education.
Give your daughters a thorough ed
ucation. Teach them to prepare a
nourishing diet. Teach them to
xvash, iron, darn stockings, to sexy on
buttons, to make their oxvn dresses,
Teach them to bake bread, and that a
good kitchen lessens tiie apothecary’s
account. Teach them that one dollar
is ono hundred cents, that one only
lays up money whoso expense are*
less than hi* incomes and that all grow
poor who have to spend more than
i hey receive. Teach them that a cal
ico dress paid for, fits bet; er than a
-ilken dress unpaid for Teach them
that a full and lieu thy face displays a
greater lustre than fifty consumptive
beauties. Ti ach them to wear strong
sho Teach them to purchase, an-l
to see that the account corresponds
with the purchase. Teach them that
they ruin God’s images by xvearitig
O il Mr Howell is a millw right | strong bodices. Teach them good
common sense, self-trust, self-help and
industry. Tench them that an honest
mechanic, in his working dress is. a
better object of our esteem than a
dozen haughty, finely dressed idlers.
Teach them gardening and the p'cas-
uro of nature. Teach them, if you
can afford it, music, painting, and all
other arts, hut consider Ihe.-e as sec*
ondary objects only. Teach them
that xvalkjug is more salutary than a
ride in a carriage; and that ivild flow
ers are a worthy object of admiration.
Teach them to reject, xvith disdain, all
nppe.irant'es, and to use only yes or
no in good earnest. Teach them that
happiness of matrimony de|>ends
neither on external nppenrnncts nor
on wealth, hut on ibe man’s character.

A Little Romantic.
A Hint to Oo.
A western man xvho is blessed xvith
several attractive daughters whose
charms occasionally detain their ad
mirers to a late hour, has invented an
alarm clock of an ingenious character.
It is something ou the style of a
“cuckoo” clock. A principal feature
is that at 10 o’clock it strikes loudly,
txvo little doors open, and a man with,
a dressing-gown and cap on glides
out, holding in his hand a card in
scribed “good-night.” The effect is
said to be good, and since the arrival
of the nexv clock there has been no
trouble in getting rid of callers. The
clock is destined to prove a very pop
ular article iu houses containing mar.
riageable daughters.
Be Short.

endure many an ache if it is over soon,

beyond the limits of reason and con
