At the Jackson, Penn , fair there is to be a foot race by nine widowers. It is to bo a mile dash, and Ihe prize is to be a widow. Mrs. Emma D. E. N. South worth pays she has written constantly since she was 15 years old ; she is now at work on her sixtieth novel. Thk School Commissioners of Bibb county have decided that the children of delimiting tax-payers are not entitled to the benefits of a free school. Thk fucts in regard to the trial of the Ashburn prisoners, and which brought about the Garrard-Brown controversy, weigh bcuviiy against the ex-Governor. Thk widow of Alexander Campbell, the founder of the Campbellite or Christian church, is Jiving with her son-in-law, Cole Barclay, near Hillsboro, in Alabama. James B. Taylor died in 1670, worth $3,000,000. To his grandchild he bequeath ed an aouuity of $5,000. The remainder of the property was willed to bis wife. The grandchild went to law abont it. Result: Not one dollar of that estate remains. Law yers and receivers got it all. The two cent postal card has made its ap pearance. It has two stamps—oue at each eud—and space for two messages. The sender occupies one of these, and the returner the other. One stamp is canceled at the of fice from which it is sent, and the other from the office from which it is returned. The card will soon be io general circulation. Alligators—Woods, of the Hawkins ville Disj atcli, loses cone of bis character for veracity iu relating the following. The scene was near McR a : “Messrs. Wm. McLean, Wright Lancaster and h. W . Lancaster, with the assistance of Dtck Mo'eo, colored, caught ten alliga'ors, six of which were as large as alligators grow Speculation*. It is amusing to read the speculations of Colonel Marcella* E. Thornton, of Atlanta, upon any subject he takes in hand. Just now he comes to the front with a somewhat formidable paper upon fhe question as to who is likely to be the next Governor Whoever wrote the article to which Thorn ton’s initials nrc appended left the gaping public in everlasting doubt, ns he utterly failed to look far enough into the future to satisfactorily answer the perplexing inter rogatory. In the first ptuce he settles Colquitt by saying there is little need to discuss bis chances for re-election ; but, as if icpenting of this, in his closing paragraph he remarks —“Governor Colquitt sustains about the same relationship to Georgia that Grunt does to the people of the whole country. It is hard to tell where he is. what he will do, or how strong he is—in the nomination.” Then ho names Gen. Gartrell, whom he regards as “the most formidable man in the field;” Col. Hardeman, Gen. I,awton, Judge Warner, Judge Johnson, Hon It. E Lester, Mi. Turner, Judge Reese, Judge Mc- Cutcheon, Joshua Hill, Capt. Bacon—all of whose chances he discusses and disposes of with a certainty that admits of no sort of controversy ; and there is probably not more tlmn one man in the State who believes it all, and that man is tbc author himself Thornton in his own conclusions But our good friend should call to mind the trite old adage about the “best laid plans of mice and men." The election is a good time of], nor have all the candidates been named who will between now and the meet ing of the Convention make known their names. The Colonel’s predictions, though founded (in his opinion.) od unerring sagac ity and far-reaching astuteness, may all turn out wrong. The names he records may all bo withdrawn ; some unnamed man may shoot like a star athwart tbe political firm ament, and obscure by its brilliancy the fire fly light of these present magnates. Some splendid meteor, hitherto unseen by the political astronomer, may all at once light up the State with its blinding effulgence, und make the numerous candidates who stand in its way resemble those described in tbe awe-inspiring and soul-harrowing language of the poet— “Some was black and some was blacker, And some was the color of a chaw tobacker.” Should this happen, the Colonel would be in a bad fix ; and no doubt, like old man Norcross, he would always believe he ban been euchred out of it. Still, the Colonel should have a chance; and if matters are the reverse of what be writes, it is not his fault. So far as The Weekly is concerned, the admission is voluntary that its preferenet is among those named above; and should this preference bo the nominee, he will have all the snpport it is possible to give him—and we feel assured that no man iD Georgia wi!! illustrate her more brilliantly than be. This much we say now, and at the proper time will so define our position as to leave uone in doubt ns to how we stand. One word more. This notice is takeu of “M. E. T." and his speculations simply to show bow the wind blows. No importance is attached to them, because this prolific writer can say one thing as well as another ; and the subject is left just where we found it—with the reader—who is expected to digest it at his most elegant leisure. Hard Up.—The Charlotte Observer thinks it evident that cither Gov. Colquitt has not prayed enough or Gen. Toombs has not cussed enough, or Georgia’s administrative affairs would be in better condition. Wonder if the Obseiver could give the measure of either prayer or profanity necessary to keep a State in a sound, wholesome condition in such* times us these.— Er. With our present ideas of editorial pro priety we cannot approve of such innendoes as the above. Let the press at all times and under all circumstances respect religion, especially when it is promulgated by good men. Tough.—The Cochran Enterprise is re sponsible for the following. Were he the owner of a dozen little hatchets he could never be a George Washington with this hyperbole on record against him : “There is a man living in Laurens county who has an acre of very rich land. Last year he planted it in peas, and after gather ing as many as he wanted for seed, he fat tened fifty bead of hogs, fourteen head of cattle, pastured his horses on them all the winter, and the next spring, when he went to break up the ground there were so many shelled peas lying around that an eighteen inch scooter could uot reach through them.” Nipped in TnK Bud—The Thomasvillc Enterprise is a clean hitter, and usually leaves a dent in the object of its pugilism ; but this sockdolager cripples others besides Dr. Miller: “Well, the Doctor is a gentleman of high ability and fine character, but has usually looond up stronger before elections than alter, and we guess it will be so this time.” The Origin of thk Ocmuloee. —We clip this from the Dramatic Tianscript find Times, a new amusement journal now beiug published in Macon : “Bullrr’s History of Macon, now in press, asserts a fact that the National Hotel of Perhaps.— The Curnesville Register bus this to say in behalf of Gov. Brown : “Whpn Garrard. Walters, or any olhrr member of the Legislature strikes Joe Brown, they mny expect to strike something which will rebound and come at them with greater force than they are hardly able to hear I/’t what be said about Governor Brown that may, one thing, lip is one of the o’d coons that makes the fur fly whenever he strikes.” And it Was the possession of this facnlty of making the “fur fly" that induced Gen Meade to employ the Governor to prosecute and that to conviction, innocent men. Per haps you are right, Mr. Register. How is It? —Northern papers stick to it that Beu Hill is Qt the head of the Inde pendent movement in this State. If such is not the case the Senator should say so ; if it is so, let him at once, without delay, unite himself to those in sympathy with him. Mr. Hill may ruin bis chances of returning to the Senate if be does not promptly deny the “harsh impeachment.” Where are you, Ben jamin ? No End. —The controversy between Gov. Brown and Mr. Garrard is likely to extend into several weeks’ time. The ex-Governor never tires, even io defending a bad cause, and hence when he gets started on this line he never knows when to stop. Of course our sympathies are with Garrard, just as they were with (he Asbburn prisoners at the time of the trial. Comptroller-General Wright. “Chatham,” tiie Atlanta correspondent of the Savannah News, gives the following short history of the life and services of Capt. W. A. Wright, the newly appointed Comptroller of the State : Captain William A. Wright having given his bond to-day and entered upon tbe duties of his office, it will not be out of place to present the renders of the Morning News with a brief skeleh of this new Stute official. A thrill ol pleasure will t»e felt by thou sands of ex Confederate soldiers when they learn that Capt. W. is the eldest pod of the lamented General A. R Wright, first com mander of the grand old Third Georgia Regiment, a brother of the Hon. H. G. Wright, of/he Augusta Chronicle and Con stitutionalist, aud member of the House of Representatives from Richmond county, and a brother-in-law of Col Thomas S WayDe, of Savannah. Willie Wright was born in Louisville, Jefferson county, January l!)tb, 1844, and was a student at tbe Jefferson Academy when the war broke out. Full of patriotism, and desiring to follow the fortunes of his gallant father, ho enlisted in the Dawson Grays, of Greene county, as a privute, und remained so uutil his father became a Brig adier-General when he was made ordnance officer of the brigade, with the rank of lieu tenant. This position he continued to fill after his father rose to the command of a division, but with the higher rank of captain. Of an active temperament and fine mental perceptions, he proved himself a valuable stuff vfficer. in tbo matter of courage and fidelity to duty on the field of battle, Captain Wright was ever conspicuous. Although he lost a leg at tho terrible second battle of Manassas, lie rallied from bis wounds and was again in the saddle at Chancellorsville During Gen. march upon Gettysburg, however, be was captured und sent to Johnson’s Island, in Lake Erie, where he was confined for eleven months. On being exchanged he joined his father’s command just about the time Grant and Lee reached Petersburg. The surrender soon followed, and his military career, so varied and so honorable, camo to an end, and l.esheathed a sword that hangs to-day without a stain upon its trusty blade. Returning home, Captain Wright engaged in planting in Columbia county, where he made for himself a pleasant and happy home, having selected a most estimable lady, Miss Ellen G. Carter, daughter of Dr. John B. Carter, of Augusta,as his life companion Four interesting children have blessed this union aud made n happy home still happier and more attractive. At tbe last election of Comptroller-General Captain Wright was a candidate, but withdrew io favor of Col. Goldsmith, and became Clerk of the Wild Land Department of that office. Having discharged his duties faithfully, honestly arid with marked ability, despite all the crooked ness surrounding him, the majority of the Genera! Assembly petitioned Governor Col quitt to appoint him to fill the unexpired term of Colonel Goldsmith. The Governor complied, and a score of Irieuds at once volunteered as bendsmen, thus enabling him to enter immediately upon tbe discharge ol the duties of the office. Our new Comp troller-Ueuerai is one of the mo*t popular aod amiable meu that I ever knew, both socially and officially, aud, with the sad late of others before him, I feel satisfied that he will prove faithful and honest to the end of his official career His two years of public life in Atlauta have served to make more firm his sterling qualities of head and heart, and to strengthen his manly moral character. In personal appearance he is of spate build, a little over medium height, sharp features, smooth face with frank expression, aud light curly hair. The House in an Uproar.—Paring the evening session iu the House of Represent atives last Tncsday. a lively debate occurred, growing out of a bill introduced by Mr. J. 11. Shanuon, of Franklin, to appropriate two hundred thousand dollars yearly to build the new Capitol. Mr. McWhorter, of Greene, ofl r.d a substimte to submit the question of returning the Capitol to Mil ledgeville to the people. Several bitter speeches were made against Atlanta, and she was bitterly defended. The House went into the committee of the whole, and the committee adopted the substitute and rec ommended its passage. The House broke up in confusion. McWhorter claims to have > flered his substitute as a joke, bat it was turned to earnest. The scenes in tbe House were exciting and animated, and '‘uiucnon on!v wi Attachment to Nkwspapkrb —The strong attachment ol subscribers to well conducted newspapers is fully confirmed hy publishers ‘Stop my paper” —words of dread to be ginners in business —lose their terror Bfter a paper has beprt established for a term of years. So long a« a paper pursues a just, honorable, and judicious conrse. meeting the wants of its customers in all respectß, the ties of friendship between the sub scribers and the paper are as hard to break bv an outside third piotv ns the link which bind 3 old friends in business or social life. Occasionally defects and errors in a news paper are ove;looked by tho e who have become attached to it, through its perusal for years They sometimes become dissat isfied with it on account of somethng which had slipped into its columns, and may stop taking it; but the absence of the fa miliar sheet at their homes and office, for a few weeks, becomes an in-upportable p iva tiou, and they hasten to take it again and pos sibly apologize for having it stopped. No friendship on earth is more constant than that contracted by the reader for a journal which makes on honest and earnest effort to merit its continued support, lienee a conscientiously conducted paper becomes a favorite in the family.

Among the useful Toilet articles we notice a much-liked preparation for the hair, possessed of properties so remarkub'e that no ODe who cares to own a clean and healthy scalp with beautiful hair should pass it untried Its properties are cleansing, invigorating and healing, and af ter a few applications the hair ceases to fall. Dandruff and Humors disappear and tho hair grows clean, soft and silky. It keeps the bead cool and comfortable and gradually restores the hair if gray or faded to the natural and I fe-like color beautiful to look upon.
