She was an obedient and loving daughter a kind sistpj;, and a most devoted wife. She was a kind and indulgent mother, and her tender care and instructions will be missed for many years to come, by her five little orphans. But, her good works were not confined to home alone. She was a pleasant companion for both old young. No lady had more, or warm er friends, and none deserved or appreciated them more highly. She was a good neighbor—a friend to the poor—a nurse tor the sick, and her Sweet smiles and gentle influ ence will be long missed, through out the community in which she lived. • Her kindness is rem embered with emotions of lovp apd gratitude, by those whom she befriended while in life.

A BILL FOIi A BRANCH ASYLUM. THE INDIAN {SPRJN<? JS THE PLACE FOK I£. We have been informed by our Rep sentative in the legislature, ’Dr, Mays, that a bill has been introduced * in the legislature, to establish a branch of the Asylum for the insane of the state of Georgia, and it being admitted that the presnt Asylum at Milledgeville is inad equate for the comfort of that unfortu nate class of our people, he will intro duce a bill in July next for the locat ing of said branch Asylum at this place, We think the idea is a capital one, and a practical one, We learn from the Dr. that the bill now before the house is establishing of said branch building in Pickens county. But it will only take a very little investigation to convince any one of the superiority of the advantages of this place, In the first place the beneficial ef fects of our Mineral water upon the atiiieted is so universally admitted t’ .* do argument is needed On that , why not put the' poor where they receive the i it? In eddt inn to that we thv oh as pure air a • and while .vc are e.-o ' .re summer breezes of . gion we are exempt u< ot the w' .ter snowdrifts u. ’ a* Sw i.ia, We will have ample R, K, facilities in the extension oi the extension of ‘he M, W I>, from Macon to Atlanta, Another fact that should be taken titc consideration is the State's prop orty here,- The siafcHwr-ten Stres of reserved land here on which could be found a splending lot*, and besides per haps there is many citizens of the State who are not apprised of the fact that on the State’s reserve there is the best paying property Jn Middle .(Georgia, that of a merchant mill, constructed a few years ago by Col, Lamar, on a leese', that will expire in a short time, and this property will pay a good divi dend or interest oil tkv Tiiorsand dol lars capital,-the income s>f which could lie devoted tc the support of the Asy lum, we hope Mr. Mays will use use every exertion to secure the passage of the bill, w£ should hate it hero by all means, and then have a. bill to appro-, giiate the proceeds of the lease of the tate’s property to the beautifying the: grounds and supporting the institution. We shall discuss this subject more tally here after. In the mean time, we can rest assured that pur Repre sentative will work the matter up. To will a thing with him,, is to succeed, We feel assured the members t>f the Legislature have only to he informed of the advantages ,we have to benefit the afflicted Jmes, and they will apt wisely and establish a-branch Asylum at this place.

I struck an attitude on a street corner, and asked a forlorn looking individual if" he would kindly di rect me to the Kimball House. He pointed to a very modest looking building about a half a mile down the street, and I imme diately drew a straight line between him and the building. But it didn’t look much like a first class hotel. It was the most unpretentious concern in the city. However, I waltzed in, and .fopk a seat at a table with the rest. The guests were not slinging on a great deal of style that day; ' in deed, the majority of them ap peared like common mortals. A big, Hat-headed female, with an ear like a pickle-dish, seemed to be waiting on tables. I beckoned to her. “Is this the Kimball House?” I inquired. ' . She grinned and said it wasn’t nothing else. Then I told her to give me the best breakfast the house could af ford. ' ‘ ' ' Which she did. And I was proceeding to put my- 1 self on the outside of it, when something peculiar in the appear ance of the butter caused me to give it a critical examination. I found three grav hairs in it. Silver threads gh lon g the gold. It is said that ,the smallest hair throws a shadow, At any rate, three of them threw a shadow over my appetite. I beckoned again to that fiat headed female with the pickle-dish ears. “My good girl,” I remonstrated, “I don’t mind eating butter that’s a little stale— middle-aged butter, for instance —but when it’s old enough to have gray hair, I’d rather not.” The maiden gave me a look that set me to calculating my chances of getting out of there alive. So I meekly asked her if she could accommodate me with some bald-headed butter. While she was doing so, I fiour ished my knife and fork and made a vigorous attack on the beafsteak before me. But it got away from me, some how or other. It suddenly Hew across the table, and slapped a man in the mouth. He tossed it back to me, and I proceeded to dissect it with a little more caution and much less confi dence. But I couldn’t make the slightest impression on the infant thing. Tears and entreaties were of na avail. Threats and violence were equal ly unsuccessful. That steak was thoroughly hard ened. It turned the edge of the knife, and bent the fork out of shape. I worked so industriously that my wife would not have known me. I sawed and scraped till the old tiling fell to creaking like worn out riddle. Finally ! gave it up a • a hope less undertaking, and wrapped the steak in a napkin I shoved it into my coat-tail pocket. 1 may as well here tlffit . afterwards had,it cut in two wit, ' cleaver, and macW .it a.com n‘ ’ excellent hinges for' mv‘ trunk-I]''! which means-I Am Vetting , r , 1 f&W JPoVtL .Lory beef-steak. • to na h r ze a .plate at -hash. ‘ * Found it to be composed of Ai ( > ( V Onion and garlic, three partsU weak solution cf marrow-bope, tw< parts—double-distilled extract ‘ ~i an Irish hair brush, four parts— one rusty hairpin, one needle full of-thread, two ’trousers “buttons two apple teorps and. apiece offp mutton. ■:' ' My aopetite - did net seem to <l c mand an** hash that day.

And she hpied unt of my sight like a sun-fiowfir in auUimn. I was satisfied ‘ I had;mv breakfast.at the Kim ball House, and was ready to lea'y oi) .tire first train. So I rose, paid my bill, and left the house. 1 I felt positively relieved-of oni dollar. I met a friend on the street and told him my experience/ 1 He laughed at me, .and said l had not seen the genuine Kimball House at all-—that I had taken my breakfast atone of the lowest hash cr ies in town, which called itself . i\\i Kimball to gain distinction. “If you want to see the .real ho tel of that naiqffi ,con*e me,” he said, But I respectfullyjdeclined. I amused the rest of tly afternoon by picUng v. ffght harnesKonyker. Modesty forbids me mentioning the result, but I may as well hint that the hajciiess-maker lost a hand full of hair.
