In a divorce case in Georgia the Judife concluded his opinion in these words: “Without intending to reflect upon the wife in this case, for 1 rake it for granted that fhe libellant is to blame, still I warn all plain men agaiDst marrying women by the ruphonioui Dames of Dulcenia, Ftliziana, etc. These mellifluous names will do for novels, but not for every day life."

Rloqckkt, Very —Hear the Western liooder tliat scribbles for the Central Geor gia Weekly: This paper is Democratic, and its editor believes in Democracy. We advocate no parly or taction which grouodsits principles on sell, and its practices on fraud. We be lieve more in principles than in policy. We* ate ao “Greely stow'’ and we do not propose to sup on “organized Iraud.” Thia is rich—a reg’lar crusher. The | “organized" Democracy will be ruined. Gov. " Colquitt, Sen. Gordon and other ‘‘frauds'’ most step down, or else conciliate this editor u> eotoe wsy. 2he ease is really alarming. An Elegant Arrangement. It would appear that certain parties in and arodrid Atlanta hate thna early mapped not the plan for the next Congressional cam paign. A correspondent o( the Gainesville Southron very lucidly tells the story, and doe* it in a manner that is extremely re freshing to the n n sophist oca ted suffragists of this end of fhe District. Hear what he has to say “I*he most notable event in our polities Wrtl' he the candidates lor Congress. The friends of the present incumbent demand that he shall again be nominated by the ring, and shall take another two years whifl at Washington air. To this the yonng Democracy of the district have prepared a veto in the shape of Frank L. Haralson. Esq They have rightfully concluded that “Little Nat'’ mnnt take a back seat, aa bis record" io Congress, his record for Georgia, ( and his record in her defense in time of war, does not entitle him to a longer pension on public honors. I believe fie will be nomi nated like he was before, but T believe that Frank Haralson will defeat him nefore the people. Mr. Haralson is well known to your readers. He is the Sneer ol the Fifth 1 District. He is capable fully, honest, ear j nest and dbvoUt. Reports from all over the | district announce bis acceptability to the people. His record is pure, and bis friends will make every iffnrt to reward his talent and availability. He is a fearless orator. He is finm the people and of the people, and knows their wants, and will not be afraid to demand them. .Vo stain murg ttie beauty of His character, and that, together with merit, is wbat a suffering and prostrate people demand. ” A nice little arrangement, truly. But, while rt were a pity to spoif so admirable a game, we opine “the young Democracy” of other portions of the District will “prepare a veto” also, and our Atlanta friends will dwcuvor that it takes two >0 make a bar gain. Now we have nothing to soy against Mr. Haralson. Were he to be nominated by the convention he would receive out; cordial indorsement ; but we protest against a pro ceeding which would close the door against other good men, or, in other words, defy the sentiment or ehoice of every other section of the District. Haralson may be popular in his own county, but that does not warrant the assertion that he would run even tolera bly well elsewhere. If the ipse dvrit —the mere say-so—of a few men in one quarter must be taken as of sufficient force to name the coming man, why may it not be the case io another section? There is not a county in the District that does not contain at least one man who would make a good Represent ative, and whose claims may be equal to him who is heralded forth us “the Speer of our District.” Yes, this is a wonderfully nice game. Those who arc managing it are entitled to many thanks for the adroitness evinoed and the cheek exhibited It takes real geniuß to do these things well, snd we are prond of the genuine article aa found in the healthy region round about Atlanta. Mr. Haralson, we feel sure, is also t>'?hly elated with his surroundings. The men who are poshing him forward ure just the men to push mountains out of the way, or roll tides buck ! They never say tail, never—that is, hardly ever! The enthusiastic admiration of the South ron’s correspondent faiily boils over. He tells ns— ‘ Haralson can curry this county one thousand votes over llummond or any other man.” .Saints defend us 1 Such may be true, and yet he might be badly on the wrong side of the wire at the end of the race. Besides, the bare a«sertion of the scribbler who occupies the columns of our esteemed contemporary, unless sustained by proof, does not amount to anything; and here we buvo the declaration unsupported by any evidence whatever. It is evidently a case of counting chickens in advance. Seriously, we deplore the tendency now becoming so patent here and elsewhere to break loose from time-honored usages, and to enter for these great contests little nags whose speed should be exhibited only od local courses. This thiug { if continued, will in a few years result moet disastrously. Our people are now getting along admirably, and are tolera bly well satisfied, but break down party usage, and let the Independent come in, and there will be once more, as in the past, mourning io the land. However, the day is a long way off yet. and we eannot think it will be fraught with much evil when it does come. Time will show. Investigate.— The Legislature, while it is in the iuvesligatiog business, ought to ap point a committee to investigate and analyze Atlanta whiskey, as it does not teem to agree with some of the members. —Atlanta Phonograph. Perhaps a liberal deduction of mileage and per diem would aid tbe members in getting at tbe true inwardness of the case. Four dollars a day is tempting, when coated with legislative honors, and washed down with Lovett’s "private stock.” Mobmons in Gzobqia —The papers are mistaken about tbe fearful inroads the Mor mons are makiug in tb s section ol tbe State. In Whitfield county they have not converted a dozen. Their material has simply been the pickup of half a dozen States and cred ited to Georgia because of their concentra tion at Chattanooga. And even tbe few deladed oucs who have gone have been more ooavertod to tbe rich lands and co-operative principles of tbe Mormons than to polygamy. —Dalton fkadligit. This ia about iLe truth of the matter, What few converts they have made are from the riff-raff element of society—men aDd women who rarely attend the preaching of the Word. But these wicked and infatuated missionaries are glad to get even these, and tboy should be heartily welcome to them. Tit» Groroia Dkrbv —An exchange, after naming over the racers and b'gh-flyers entered for the great gubernatorial race, says : “It is gratifying indeed to fiave such a brilliant array of good names from which to select the next Governor of this grsnd old commonwealth; but one thing is certain, only one of them can win the blue ribbon. The rest will have to choke down their dis appointment, be sponged off and blanketed for some race thereafter.” True. Bot ore can win, and so ft were wise if each one could manage so aa to save his entrance fee. Like the great English Derby, which depopulates London and closes Parliament for a day, our Derby is the event to which aft eyes are turned, and the winner will have a bard tussle for victory. TTis Last Battue.—Gen. J. B. Hood is dead. Hia wife had preceded him but a few days. A family of eleven children—all yourg, and mostly twins—are left behind, a legacy to the South he loved so well. Let a grateful people remember him and the desti tute little ones thus orphaned. General Toombs. Here can be seen, also, men who have helped to rule the destiny of the nation. Here, also, are men ot heart and moD of mind, men of wpalth and men of worth. Among this varied collection is one famous among Southrons, » mao called, in tumiliar Southern vernacular, “Bob Toombs, of Georgia,” not s* eking notoriety, but con spicuous in presence and bearing. He baa kept himself rather close, but the writer, in walking along the piazza some days sinre, lazily smoking a cigar, heard a round “By God, sir,” roll forth with an emphasis pecu liar to some of our “unreconstructed rebels,” and turning rapidly, we stood at the elbow of General Toombs. No man seeing him can turn without a second look, and no man looking can help listening to the “old man eloquent,” and so did we. Carelessly graceful in posture, his portly form rose six feet and more into the air, rather a short, fat neck, upon which sat, with an air of unsubdued boldness, a massive head, long iron grey locks fell about his neck and ears, producing a somewhat pic turesque shagginess of appearance ; a black slouch bat, peaked, and with lowered brim, was druwu down over the broad, wrinkled forebcud until it touched the shaggy eye brows, beneath which shines clear, fearless brown eyes, which tested upon the listeners with flashes, varying according to the utter ances of the talker. From between these eyes springs a large straight nose, rather full at the end, and shelving off into wide, thin nostrils, which, quiveriug and dilating as the words rolled forth, showed the elo quence of the proud, strong lips, which never yet learned to speak a submissive word. Beneath the wide, thick-lipped mouth is a broad, heavy, double chin, which rolls away beneath the ample folds of an old-fashioned standing-collar. Except for a thin tuft of beard between the two chins, the (ace is clean.— While Sulphur Spitngs Corr. litchmond IntMtgtnur. Airs. Sprague. Poor Mrs. Sprague has to suffer not only from Conk ling's unpopularity, but from her husband’s drunken insanity. We know, in knowing her, that she is as innocent of the wrong imputed as her youngest child. To appreciate this we have to know or remem ber that, inheriting much of her honored father’s intellect and force of character, she grew to womanhood without a woman’s care and with a training given a man. The re sult is, that while as pure a woman as God ever created, she looks at the social world from a man’s stand-point. When a mere girl of sixteen her soul revolted at tbe unjust and illiberal discrimination made against her sex. She found Hick Nrvina, the handsome, dashing mau of the world, in a small, flat State capital, where the only amnscmcots are visits to the penitentiary and asylums for the insane, deaf and blind. She found Dick, we say, a pleasant gentleman to know inti mately, and when tbe small-sonlcd, copper bottomed, gilt-edged aristocracy of tbe place forbid tbe in'imacy, Kate defied the pro hibition. Sbe was incontinently run over by a drove of social bulls and heifers, and would have been plastered in tbe nurd, post fiuding, but for ber own pluck aud her fa ther’s high position. Victory made her bold, defiant and im prudent, and tbe poor little woman tries tbe same fight, now that ber great father is dead, her fortune gone, her social position no longer secure, and ber spirit broken by mis fortune. Sbe found the society of Senator Conk ling pleasant, and she asked no niau’s, aud eke, no woman’s consent to tbe same. U was the most open aud defiant social traoa action ever sneered at by the thin lips and lalse teeth of this hydra headed social world. Baki-beaded, rouod bellied, slender-legged Senators, who can be carded out by strum pets, nodded and blinked at each other iike owls io a bay-loft, aud old, aristocratic fam ilies—twenty yaurs old, ut least, in whose closets at home grinning skeletons make tbe air unhealthy—spoke ol ber as “that person.’’ lioscoe Coukiing, who, with aii his iuiei iect and intelligence, is, through his excessive vanity, an ass, helped wreck the frail bark of her platooio a fleet.on. He delighted io the foul suspicion. He bad captured, and held a willing captive,one of the high queens ol society. IJe reveled in the oolonety. He lost no opportunity to make it the more notorious. He smacked bis beastly lips over, not the gratification of desires long since burned out, but over the notoriety ol a supposed gratification that led bu mordiuaie vanity. We envy no man's pillow who could read with eyes uumoisUDed the pitilul account of this once briliiaut woman, this loved and lovable creature, following meekly, yet bravely, her children, turn from ber hv a brnte of a husband, to the borne two un worthy men had rendered desolate.— Wash ington Capital. Saratoga Dialect. There are three kinds of guest* in Sara toga : The jolly young lady who comes to be smtv»ed, the rich and ugly yonog Wv who come* here to amuse and stun people, and the aristocratic, worldly ladv who comes to maneuver for social status. The worldly ladv who come* to improve tier social status is *he one who makes alf ffie social cliques Her principal bn«iness is to sit up firm, find ont the money and social status of ev“rv one in the hotel, and then work for introductions to aristocratic parties. Then the cl ; qne business commences. About six selfish idiots are sufficient to make a successful clique. The clique once formed, the members sit around all day Isolated in some exposed lo cality. stare people with aristocratic looks, and scandalize everybody in the hotel. I joined one of the aristocratic cliques the other day, just to see how it would seem. We sat by ourselves all day. our clique did. Several people whom we used to know quite Well in New York came up to speak to ns, but we cut them dead. They didn’t have money enough to get into our set. When a young man pasped, who bad recantly inherit ed a large fortune, we sent out one of onr cliques to bring him up for an introduction, and then we held on to him like grim death. During the day our clique of six occupied twelve chairs on the balcony of the aristo eraltc States. We filled these chairs with India shawls, inlaid fans and point lace para sols. When any of the poor and vulgar people come near us, we all looked very haughty and talked loud enough *o he beard all over the haleonv about those dreadful common people in the hotel, who were so vnlgar as to enjoy themselves. When no body was looking we all yawned, fumbled French novels (which we could not read.) and sneered with elevated noses “We didn't come to Saratoga to enjoy onr°elves,” we said ; “we came here to be aristocratic." I stood their aristocratic business just one day, and then I broke. I could not stand stupidity any longer, even if it were aristo cratic. I sighed for a little intellectual fun, and when I saw a group of happy young la dies telling anecdotes, satirizing, humbug ging and laughing in a natural way, 1 went straight way and joined them. Just opposite us sat a party of young la dies who came here to amuse and stun peo ple. The principal beau among them had just returned from abroad. He was very Eoglishy. He coaid hardly speak our poor American language at all. "Chawmin’ ev’nin’, Miss Astor,” he said, or rather mombled, imitating the English Cockney dialect. “Yes, awful charming. Dance to-r.ight, Mr. Livingstone ?” “Aw, kneuw, I kon’t donee. I think its beastly to donee—perfectly atwocious—baw able I But isn’t it beastly ’ot?” “Oh, no, Mr. Livingstone, it’s perfectly lovely. The weather is just too sweet for anything. Just the time for flirting on the balconies. They pay you are a great flirt, Mr. Livingstone—dreadful!” “Aw, kueuw, Miss Astor. I don't flirt. I think it*B a hawid practice. I could not think of spooning with a young lady who wasn’t ’eiress to a thirty thousand dollar revenue, yeuw kneuw I Couldn’t, pon hon nah.” “Of course not, Mr. Livingstone. Why. pa’s got four brownstone fronts, and m»'i got lour camel’s-hair shawls, and diamonds on diamonds, and —” “Aw, yeou don’t say so, Miss Astor 1 l)o take my arm and we’ll have a little stroll all to ourselves, and—” And then they promenaded ont into a dark corner of the balcony.— Eli Perkins. Too Mant Grave-Yakds.— Somebody tells a story of a traveler who pat np at a BoetOD hotel. He was given a room in the rear of tire building,and the first sight which met his eye in the morning was a gloony expanse of a grave-yard right under his window. He was a man ot sensitive nature, and the landscape spoiled his appetite for that day. As soon as his day’s work or pleasure was over, he quietlv removed his bnggage to another bouse. Here be asked for a front room and went to sleep in peace ; but io the morniog, as before, Aurora’s gen tle beams gilded a dazzling array of tomb stones across the street in the King’s Chapel grave-yard. The gentleman had another day’s bad digestion, hot, being of courage ous disposition, he made a third trial, and expressly stipulated that he should not be given 8 back room Dor a front one. The gentlemanly clerk assigned him a cheerful parlor on the west aide, and the goest went to bed happy. He aros* feeling decidedly more cheerful, and drew his curtsies to feast bis gaze on tbe old Granary Cemetery, with tombstones three hundred years old molder mg before him. It was too much for the stranger, ne paid bis bill and departed to hunt np a town "where it wasn’t so un healthy that they had to have a grave-yard attached to every hotel.”— Worcester Spy.
