Heniitlflit Illnulrntlon. There arc ponds in the woods of the north whoso waters nre so clear, and whoso bottoms are so clean, that they can with truth, be called great pools. I have gone to them every year, not to fish in them, not to hunt their shores, but simply to gar.e into them. 1 have gone to them by day, to see the mountains in them ; to see the sun, and sky, and the white clouds —the trees on the borders, and the flecked rocks that line their hanks. I have gone to them at night to see the stars anil the moon, and the dark blue mystery of the firmament when the brightness of its ceru lean gleam as it glistens at noonday was tempered and shaded to a sober and more grateful tone. And in these pools—these great pierglass mirrors of nature —leaning over the sides ofmy boat, I have seen the world and the sky stand out with splendor, a beauty, a suggestiveness of appearance, that the open vision of the day could not bring me. The New Testament is such a pool, in the spiritual world, friends. The great moun tain-like truths of God’s being and conduct, the evergreen growths of his daily provi dences ; the sober but ma jestic fulfillments of the old prophecies; the star-like facts of life ; the blue dome of the destiny of the race ; yea. and the cloud-like passages of his eternal decrees, lifted h igh above hu man analysis, moved on by invisible cur rents of 11 is ordering—all these nre reflect ed from the pure depths of the teachings of Jesus. Anil all these you can see, I can see, nil men ran see, if they will hut con template with earnest, prayerful, soul seeking vision the Sayings of the Son of Man. — B\ 11. 11. Murray.

Jolin Henry was with Julia the other evening when she observed : “ John, dear, what is nil this talk about contracting and expanding the currency, and which do you believe in?” “Well, my sweet,” said John, pulling up his collar, “ that depends upon circum stances. In some cases I should advocate contraction of the currency, and in others an expansion of it. It is according to the circumstances—that is, the condition of things.” “ But what is the difference between the two. and how do circumstances affect them? That’s what I want to know, John.” “Oh, that’s easily explained,” said John, in a tone of great cheerfulness. “ For instance, when we are alone we sit on one chair, don’t we ?” “ Yes.” “Well, that’s contraction. But when we hear your pa or ma coming we get on two chairs, don't we?” “ 1 should say we did’” “Well, my love, that is expansion. So you see that it is according to circum stances.” “ John,” said she, very softly, burrow ing under his left ear, “ we are contracting now, ain’t we?” y You bet!” said John with increased cheerfulness.

UapitalH of Georgia. From the founding of the Colony up to the time it fell into the hands of the llrit ish the seat of (Government was at Savan nah. By proclamation of Gov. Wereat, the Legislature met at Augusta on the Ist Tuesday in January, 1780. The State was soon afterwards overrun by the enemy, and Augusta was alternate ly in possession of the British and Conti nental troops. Augusta was the nominal seat of government until it was returned to Savannah on the evacuation of that city 1783. In 1794, the constitution fixed the capi tal at Louisville, in Jefferson County, from which place it was removed to Milledge ville in 1804. Our readers can all remember its re moval from Milledgeville to Atlanta in 1868. Milledgeville was the seat of government sixty-four years.

Behold in me the snake editor.” “ Well, I’ve killed a rattle—” “ How long was it?” “ Nine feet four.” W-what! less than ten feet? This pa per is no receptacle for miserable fishing worm stories.” and the exasperated editor seized the visitor by the throat and shut off from his insides the breath of heaven. “ Yaas,” gurgled the poor wretch, “but it had eighty-seven ra —” “No back talk !” veiled the editor ; “we want uo rattlesnakes less than from ten to twelve feet in length,” and the snake killer was dashed to pieces on the flinty pavement below'.

The New York Journal of Commerce be stows deserved praise upon the orderly and law-obeying conduct of the Southern workingmen during the recent strikes, It says: “It is true that the cities of the South aro not as crowded as those of the North with men who cunnot get work, nr tramps or dissatisfied laborers. But the ■ real reason for the quiet of the South when all the other parts of the country were overrun by mobs was the peaceful dispo sition of her people. That they went through all that week of crisis and kept the peace in Kiehmond, Charleston, Savan nah, Mobile. New Orleans, and other large cities of the South, where there were few regular volunteer soldiers on hand to keep i order, is a test proof of their willingness to ; obey the laws, to work for a living, and to dwell in ninity with all men.” Six months before marriage lie says : —“ Darling, I could kiss the ground you walk on and six months after marriage she snys, “ You kiss my foot.” The wheat crop of the United States of this year, it is estimated, will aggregate three hundred and twenty-five million bushels, against two hundred and sixty million last yoar.
