Amerlous, Ga., June 14, 1881 “Taunt hu do respect for wealth An! vice versa, eb ? Bashfulness Is a misfortune; gall and cheek are cardinal sins. It is now very plain that If you gamble with crown heads, you should not win their money. It is dangerous. The best one we have seen lately Lord Coleridge’s statement that the prince of Wales la a hard-working man Thebe is now a great deal less of un rest in.flnancial circles than for some time past. Honey is cheaper in Europe. The Ozark (Ark.) Times tells us that Sam Jones characterizes some of the Little Rock people as the “slop hogs of hell.” “Half the world doesn't know how the other half lives." And two-thirds of the world does not care whether the other third lives or not. The Washington Post thinks that “the tone of the rural Georgia press indicates that the Atlanta Constitution has been overplaying the anti-Cleveland hand." The Georgia Press association will meet in Atlanta Tuesday, and quite number of the boys bavo signiiled their intention of going on the western trip. Major Giessner, the president will leave for Atlanta to-day. Sam Jones said out in Little Rock .that “he would rather drink the slop from the Capitol hotel kitchen than beer.” And the profane Arkansas ed itors are all out In a paragraph declaring that “It may bo owing to the way they were reared, but they decidedly prefer the beer.” Out in Mississippi the are organizing the society of “The Daughters of the Confederacy.” A good idea—a fitting companion society to “The-Daughters of the Revolution." We ibonld like to see every community in -the south have a branch of “The Daughters of the Con federacy.” The national bank* are willing to take the! per cent bonds in place of the <1 per cent, bonds because it is cheaper than to go Into the market and buy bonds at a high premium. They are oompelled to hare bonds to keep up their circulation and tho 2 per cent, will answer their purpose nicely. Memphis is becoming alarmed at tho rapidly Increasing volume of its delin quent tax list. And Memphis should become alarmed. Next to Birmingham, It has more land within Us corporation, which evidently the people do not think worth paying the taxes on, than any city In the south, Birmingham leads in that respect, however. The foundation argument uf those who talk against free coinage, It the present depredated price of silver bul lion. They always begin on the eighty ' cent dollar. The eighty oent dollar la , figment of the gold bug’s brain. There Is no dollar coined by these United States that will not pass os a dollar. And one of the chief reasons for the deprecia tion of the price of sliver bullion is tliat It Is discredited by this, tho largest sll ver producing country in the world. The British press is hammering the prince of Wales for his disgraceful con duct In the baccarat affair at Tranlty- croft, and to-day the man he helped to ruin commands more respect and has a warmer plaee in the affection of the English people than the heir to the throne. The religious papers are es pecially seveio on the priuce and one of them the Christian World, says: “The throM rest* upon the foundation of pub* lio opinion only. A few more scandal* like that of Tranbycroft would destroy the foundation, and Edward VIII would nem be crowned. Tub practical joker is very often guilty of acta for which he ought to be lodged in Jail. A few nights ago, at a point on the New York Central railroad, two bicyclists with red lamps ou their machines (lagged an express train as it came dashing around a curve. The en gineer believing when he saw the danger signals, as he thought, Hashing ahead of him, that certain death awaited him, reversed his engine and prepared to jump from the cab, hut before he could do so the engine sped by the red lights and he heard the mocking shouts of the jokers. The fright of the engineer was so great, however, that his hair turned white and he la now little better than a nervous wreck. At the time the train turned the curve it was running at the rate of fifty miles in hour, and the chances are the engineer would have been instantly killed had he jumped from his engine. The detectives of the New York Central road are now work ing on the case, and the chances are the two jokera will spend a term in prison as there is s state law against flagging a train without a cause. :rf- NOBLE MISS GAUNKR. What a marvelous illustration of the beauty and strength of woman's devo tion, of that aiTection which hopes ami endures and is patient, was afforded at Trinity church, Chelsea, Wednesday morning. No man should venture a Hippant or cynical comment upon the bravo ami noble hearted bride of Sir William Gor- don Cumming. There was s nobility of heart, unde served, but all the more conspicuous. The withering blast of dishouor and dis grace, the fair young woman faced witli an unshrinking firmness which must command man's admiration, even as it touches his sympathy. How beautifully apt is that familiar and exquisite figure of Irving’s—“As the vine, which has long twined its graceful foliage about the oak, and been lifted by it into sunshine, will, when the hardy plaut is rifted by the thunder bolt, cling round it with its caressing tendrils and bind up its shattered boughs; so it is beautifully ordered by Provideuce that woman, who is the mere dependent and ornament of map in his happier hours, should bo his stay and solace when smitten with sudden calam ity, winding herself Into the rugged re cesses of Iiis nature, tenderly support ing the drooping head and binding up the hrokeu heart.” Insignificant, indeed, are tho dramas of the boards beside those of life. Here was one which, from the opening of the first act at Tranby Croft to the fall of the curtain at the altar, teemed with un usual incidents and denouements. Actually touching the greatest throne the sun ever shone upon ami, on the other hand, embracing the citizen from tho plainest walks, the drama was a picture of royal life such as tlioso out side of it rarely got a glimpse of. Tho progress of this drama, too,was watched attentively by an audience as large as the English reading word Of all tho interesting features the most striking was the final climax—the marriago following the verdict which pronounced the plaintiff guilty and not entitled to recover damages against the defendants, who said that he had cheat- i at cards and proved it. Miss Garner is not declared to be an adventuress and It is taken for granted that she is a true woman. Her faith in Sir Gordon was steadfast and not to be shaken. Though the world must be lieve him to be a dishonorable man, she who loves him says that he is innocent STILL ANOTHER. Another monument to the Confederate dead was erected Wednesday at Fred ericksburg and thousands of officers and veterans of the lost cause were present and participated in the ceremouies at tending the unveiling, and a number of eloquent and patriotic speeches wore de livered. The southern people are erect ing more monuments to their dead than those of the north, and we suppose that this is the reason why Harper’s Weekly is disposed to utter a protest against the action of the south in honoring its dead. It does not want to see a monu ment to the memory of Jefferson Davis, and declares that if one is built that the monuments to Grant and Lincoln should be overthrown. Harper’s Weekly may as well understand now as any other time that in the matter of monumeut build ing in tho south its wishes will not bo consulted for the best of reasons, and that is, it is none of its business. If the people of the uorth see fit to puli down the monuments erected to the memory of their leaders they can do so, but we of the south, as the Atlanta Constitu tion aptly remarks, intend to put up monuments to our dead from one end of the southland to the other, and the grandest monument of them all will be erected to perpetuate the memory of Jefferson Davis, the great chieftain of the Confederacy. and she prefers to “Walk by his side itn outcast—live upon the lightol one kind smile from hl'b—tliau wear Hie crown the Bourbon lost.” The cose has few parallels cither in literature or life. Woman braves pover ty for the divine passion a thousand times every day, but If she has not lost tho appreciation of honor sho shrinks from dishonorable association. In life, instances occasionally occur where a cultured, Impulsive girl elopes with a coachman, and an intelligent but erratic woman weds a condemned tnurderer.In novels, knights and heroes constantly seek out poor maidens, but ladies of high potition seldom woo an ostracized ANOTIIKH RICHMOND IN TIIK FIELD. The political situation In the west is getting m‘xed as time g<*es on, and it now appears that in Ohio the prohibi tionists are about to join hands with the third party people and to support their platform. In that state the talk among the prohibitionists shows that they are In favor of uniting with the farmers ou a farmers’ and labor platform, but in Iowa the prohibitionists have nominated a state ticket and demand the free and unlimited coinage of silver, the Austra lian ballot system and the abolishment of the internal revenue system, as the object of it is to encourage the liquor trifle. Up in Minnesota a new party has been sprung which calls itself the national association, the purpose of which is to better the condition of citizens in public and private life. Forty canvassers are to be sent out into the state immediate ly, and the leadors of tho latest political outfit declare that they will have things in such shape as to enable them to nom inate a presidential ticket next year. The indications are that there will be a large crop of cranks in the campaign of 1802, and that their stamping grounds will he tho western states. x BEALL & OAKLEY. BARGAINS!

Rninola would have scorned Tito from the lirst had she sus pected that he would care nothing for her father's wishes about the library. But search literature and you And few in.tances where women have been so brave os to link themselves to a man dis honored before the world. A woman can not raise a man by marrying him. She goes down to his level. She can rise to tier husband's but, however, noble and true site may he, she can not raise a man to her jmsltion. Miss Garner sacrilices a brilliant life for love of a man who Is disgraced. Per haps tlic secret of her affection wax pity, which, “of ail the paths that lead to woman’s love," Is said to lie the straightest. It is >ald that an unusual case of clemency Is reported from Russia. Some civil officers of the czar last week kindly allowed a wretched Jew to cry out loud while he was being flogged Well, this does look like a small coix esaion to TIIB SPLIT IN OHIO. Prominent leaders of the democracy havo reason to bo alarmed at the hostile attitude of the Cincinnati democrats to wards Governor Campbell. It appears that Johnny M’Lean, of the Enquirer, who is at the head of the Cincinnati fac tion, is leading the opposition to Camp bell, and, os he is an unzeruputona poli tician, the general impression Is, that If lie fails to prevent the nomination of Campbell in the convention, be and his gang will try to defeat him at the polls. The leaders of the democratic party feel satisfied that if the party can be united McKinley will be de feated this fall, but up to the prezent time every effort to bring the factions together has failed. While the action of the Cincinnati democrats may endanger the success of the state ticket It la now pretty well understood that it will not prerent the nomination of Gov. Campbell as the better element of the party In the atate are supporting him loyally, and bla friends believe that he will win enough formers’ votes on the tariff question to offset the lots of dent- cratie votes In Cincinnati.

Tub Knoxville Tribune says the com parison of the people's party by Senator ’offer to a western cyelone is not good, because the western cyclone usually leaves a barren waste in IU destructive wake.” We beg leave to differ with the Tribune.
