A bum convention of American Inventor* U announced to lie bald to Cincinnati, beginning March 26, 1884. Rome baa been selected a* tbe place for the next meeting of tbe State Agricultural Society.

Newapaparaio Georgia, say* tbe Montezuma Record, ought to go to work to point out to capitalists and tbe cnergetlo people of tbe state who know bow to use It, tbe great possibilities ol our state as a rich field for all kind ol manufac taring industries. There Is beech timber enough in one mile of Mon tezuma to make shoe pegs for tbe whole United States for tbe next twenty-five years. Tbe Uriflln correspondent of tbe Atlanta Conrtitution furnishes tbe following remarkable story; “There> a man In our eity that has a relative who married at the age of one hundrsd ysars.and wbo was tbs Cither ol three children by said marriage. He lived to see thp.youngest on* of tbe three vote. Tbe grand nephew of this ancient old getflleman is now a Baptist preacher in Griffin.” Mr. W. E. If. Searoy Informs tbe Griffin News that Dr. Slade “pos sesses more magnetic power tban Miss Lula Hurst.” Besides raising obairs, etc., a* Miss Lula does, Dr. 8lade, according to M-. Searcy's assurance, “took two clean slates and putapenoil between them, ami without any assistance whatever from blm, the penoil wrote a mes sage to each of us, In a good, clear band write.

The reoont resolution of the Southwestern Railroad Company, determining feereafter to employ no conductor, englneor, train band or otlior employe who indulges in intoxicating drink, on or off duty, is attracting general attention, and there is little doubt (bat tbe .continued growth of the temper- anoe boom will causo the gradual adoption of the same measure by at least a largo majority of Iho oompanies. Thu* the railroad* are likely to become the most effective advocate* of temperance that have yet entered the field, and in exclu ding men of intemperate habits from among their hundreds of thousands ol employes, they not only perform a great temperance work, but vastly diminish the dan gers of railroad travel. TARIFF TALK. The Macon Telegraph bolds, we believe, that if, tbs gat os of protec tion were let down In Savannah, European manufacturers ot cotton goods would soon yuin tbe busi ness of our bonis manufacture*. In other words that foreign manufac tories, without a tariff could suc cessfully compete sgsinst home manufacturer* In the stale where cotton Is grown. That seems very odd, in view ofjtbe undisputed fact that Southern;uottoi. manufacturers bave successfully competed against tbe manufacturers, wbo have no protection, and who live, possibly, some hundred of miles nearer where the cotton 1* grown than our Ku ropean friends, and consequently do not have that extra freight to p»y- Speaking of tariff, though, re minds ns of an article which is go ing the rounds of 'lie press, from the New York Herald, which is well worth reading. W» repro duce it below; If a protective tariff is a sunny faced blessing to the workingman, every one who labor* ill any branch of the Iron industry should la- rich and happy, for a more thoroughly “protected” hu-iness would 1st bard to find. Yet thousands «*l good iron workers can llnd mulling to do at present but drink beer, and moan about being out of work. A serious reduction in the wages ol nailmaksrs has just been ordered, and now it is re|xirted that a num ber of iron miners lu Pennsylvania are destitute, and suffering, their wages having been reduced to six ty-five cents a day I If extreme protection bad not induced men to erect many more iron works tban tbe demand for iron warrants there would not be for every contract the fierce competition that compels producers to either shut down or ETIQUETTE FOR MEN. lower wages to the starvation point. When iron miners in the United States have to work ten or twelve hours daily for sixty-five cents they are worse off than the pauper laborers of Europe, IIUU AT ALL HAXAKUN.

This is su interesting mid at the sumu time a curious little bit of personal his tory. Many years ago, when the president wus on the staff of Gov. ernor Morgan, sending troops to the field, lie was envied by thou sands of ambitious young politi cians. Later on, when he became Collector of iho i’ortof New York, be was thought to have reached the highest round on the ladder or of ficial preferment. Then came his leadership of the great Republican machine; his eleetion to the vice- presidency and finally the moat splendid olllc* in the gift of any l>copte in the world. But in no one of theao places of high trust did life pass so pleasantly for him ns in tbo little village school where he reigned supremo. Why will the politicians worry the president? And how thankful ull tiic school masters should he that they nre not Collectors of the l'ort or Pres idents I Pink Smith resides a mile from Rome.

A!war* remove your cignrwltrn honing to a fatly, and it is even more polite to throw it away when so doing. It is oven questionable taste for a gentleman to smoke in the street at any time. Don't bow to a lady u^l she hat tawed to you. W This rule, of course, admits of modi fication in certain eases of relationship or aciinaintance when the lady evi dently docs not, from some cause, recog nize the geutleman. Don't shake hands with a lady ou your first introduction to her, nor after wards, unless she first evinces a dedre to do so. Don't eall on a lady unless you luve obtained |iermlmion to do ao. Don't make your calls or visits too long. Madame ltecaniier once said that "one hour waa all she granted tu tho moat agreeable of men, and that she could stand nobody longer than that." Don’t fail to send in year card on yonr first call and in fact it is better to do so always io avoid mistakes, etc. Don't forget to always raise your hat when you taw to a Indy or an elder gentleman. Don’t fail to answer all notes, invita tions, etc., promptly and don’t ever arrive late for a dinner party, and if anything would prevent yonr attend- auce at a dinner at which you have promised to be present, notify your host or hostess at tbo first possible moment. Don't drink too mack wine either at a dinner, oveuing party or a balL This rule applies nt any time, but especially in society. It is a good plan either for n gentleman to nbatain entirely when in Micietv. or to limit himself to a cer tain small and harmless amount. Don't express yourself uugrummatj- cully and don't indulge in slang. Watch yourself most clnsoty in these two par ticulars. Nothing condemns u gentle man so quickly. Don't introduce your business affairs into private conversation. “Talking shop' ia always olijectiuiutdd. Don’t talk about yonr griovnm-i-s.
