A pretty young girl was taken in
charge by the police at Atlanta
Wednesday night lor wearing men’s
clothes on the streets. She was
dressed in a full suit of United States
"regimental*” apd she intended to en
list if ehf could pass muster without
her sex being discovered. She gave
her name as Lizzie Gammon Her
parents caused her arrest.
II any such bu ldezing be attempted
toward the United’States in the mat
ter of the occupancy by our forces ol
the Spanish colonial dominions, ib<
only courts to pursue is to resist it.
Under such circumstances, an alliance
by the United Blates with Great Bri«
tain and Japan might be coneumma'
ted to offset any European coalition
against the United States. It is plain
that some vigor must be injected intc
the war policy ol the country, or else
this great republic may be placed in a
most rediculous position.-—New Or

The constitution forbids the selec
tion of a candidate for President and
Vice President from the same state for
the reason that the Vice President is
always during his term a possible
President, and the framers of the con
stitution considered it inadvisable Io
have the two highest offices in the
gift of the people conferred upon two
men from one slate, for al some lima
in the future it was deemed possible
that a particular state might secure •
preponderance of influence io national
affairs, and acquire the leading office
as a sort of right by reason of its pre*
eminence.

campaign. Indeed, his sobriquet is
“Handsome Bob,” and he won it in
the habiliments of an ordinary citizen,
whereas it is well knoqo that military
clothes adorned with brass buttons are
calculated to enhance the pulchritude
of the wearer. “Col. Handsome Bob”

CapL WiWee, of the cruiser Borton,
at Manila, io the course ol an interest-
Ing letter to a friend in Boston, relates
an incident following the battle of
Manila which illMtrates the feeing <*»
the people of that city and the light in
which Englishmen look upon the
American victory there. Capt.Ws.dee
says that a Spanish lady vterted the
office of the British consul, and wiib
tears inqaited if tbe-Amerksas were
aa bad as described in the proclama
tion of Capt- Gen Augorti “Madam,”
answered the British consul, -honor
and virtue are safer in Manila today
than they have been in three hundred
years ” And ibe lady went away sat
isfied-
Poetic Good Fortune.
Il stems that Victor Blue, she lieu
tenant who made his way to ibe rear
of Santiago and returned to the Amer
ican flee; with valuable information—
amission requiring the greatest cour
age—was a Southerner, being a native
o! Soo ch Carolina.
Bo far in the present war the
South baa been getting the Hou’s
share of dirtinotion. Il was a South
i erner who fired the firrt gun.
Il was a native of Jfr rh Carolina
’ who was ibe first officer t> fall in
’ action. Il **» an AUbamian whose
, act of daring at the mouth of Santiago
harbor was one of tbs most brilliant
deeds in history.
!' Thera is a poetic good fortape in the
i record which ibe south has been mak
ing. It is a felicitous shaping of events
