Tiie l»a Who »mil*•». “TTie light of the eyes ivjoieeth the he-irt .” You aro gloomy, porpleKml with heavy eaves, your spirits have been darkened by the rain clouds of life lor many days ; wliilo walking in unhap py meditation, you meet the man who undies, not the one who opens his lips to display a handsome set of teeth, noi the eondeseonding smile of Iho haugh ty man, hut the benevolent man, who carries on his fare a reflection of the iovo and kindness which dwell within his soul, lie takes your hand, giving you a pleasant greeting, he laughs away your low spirits, in the light of his smile you forget your trouble ; his coming is like a ray of sunshine, the clouds instantly vanish, the flowers of feeling lift up their bowed heads, and laughingly shake the rain-drops from their petals, to display their lovliest tints to the radiauco at his smile-. Though you see him but a moment, yet memory often brings before you his beaming face, and pleasant words. When in solitude, you love to think ot him, and you delight to praise him be fore men; your heart turns to him with the generous love of a brother. And tho innocent man who smiles, goes on with his hoart filled with hap piness, often unknown to him, is the source from which this inborn joy springs, for man is ever forgetful “that true happiness is found by making others happy.” Philanthropy is a flower which blooms in every heart and few are insensible to the sweetness which it flings around the pathway of life, then O! man beware, lest the weeds of selfishness distrust, and care lessnoss spring up and choke this bright and beautifid flower. -i*tw bright would be till! world of ours, if we oou ld> al way »trace The sutnhiue of* loving heart reflected on each face ; If dnrknee* never came to eafct Us gloomy shades arotmri', Or cause sharp pangs of grief to mar the happi ness profound) O I let us with a loving smile, our fellow crea tures greet. And drive the clouds from the brow of every one we meet; Height angels with tlieir lowing- eyes shall watch time move away, And guard from every coming cloud, the sun light of our day.’’ An exchange thinks the Imperial infant will shortly have to go to Brest.

A. li. Stephens. Three years agt> tl» antwmycenxmt by the Tfutional lhiblishing Company, f)l Atlanta, Ga., of the speedy publi cation of this great work, created a a profound sensation throughout the country. Tiro press of both sections bailed tbe appearance of the book with delight, for it was admitted by all that tho task of transmitting to posterity the Southern version of the history of our groat civil war could not have been confided to an abler pen than that of Mr. Stiii'Hiuvs, tbe great est living statesman of tbe South. The colleague and friend of Clay, Calhoun aud Webster, he is a connecting link between the present and tho glorious past, and as Vice-President of tho late •Southorn Confederacy, ho is peculiar ly tinted for tire task, by his opportu nities of knowing the most secret do tails of the history of tho War. Above all, his high character as a man, which has always won him tine re spect of his political enemies, enables us to rely upon his statements with an absolute certainty. In the first vol ume of his work, Mr. Stephens con fined himself exclusively to tho causes of tho War, reserving the narrative of the actual struggle for tho second and concluding volume. Tho success of the former volume was extraordinary, I reaching a sale of over 60,000 copies. If then that portion of the work which of necessity was the dryost—if any p*vrt of this magnificent produc tion can be called dry—lias met with »«oh a wonderful and rapid sale, what are wo not warranted in predicting for the second, in which the thrilling story of the most terrible and dostme tivo war of modern times, is told with all the fascination of romance ami all the sublimity of truth. Mr. Stephens slights no feature of tho War, and his work reveals a particularly interesting and fascinating portion of its history, which has never been made public until now. He goes to the bottom of the secession movement, and gives the confidential history of the Convention which formed the Confederacy. The vexed question o-f the non-exchange of prisoners of war has much new light shed upon it, and this alone ought to commend, tho book to every one who saw tbe inside of a Northern or Southern prison. What will strike the- practiced rend er most favorably, however, is the fact that Mr. Stephens’ narrative is free from bitterness and sectional feeling. He writes with that calm dignity which is always the historiau's most effective weapon, weighing facts ac cording to their merits, and arriving at conclusions with a clearness of judgment which is, to say the least, remarkable in oaa who was himsoll so important actor in tho events nar rate 1. It is this fact which will mako liis book so welcome to thoso who aro seeking substantial information upon the subjects treated of, and who pre fer clear and straight-forward state ments of what teas done, to fine theories as to wliat might have been accomplish ed. Having been compelled by ill health, since tho war, to remain al most entirely in the privacy of his home, and to tako no part in the ques tions of tho day, Mr. Stephens has been enabled to look back over his long and honorable career with tho calmness of one whose record is com pleted, and to produce, as his most valuable service- to tho country, the magnificent history which lies before ' us. ° The book is sold by subscription only, and agents are wanted in every : county. The Dalton North Georgia Citizen, of the 11, contains the following com munication r Cove CTett, August 0, 1870. Editor» Citizen : I write this to in form you of the most horrid murder ever committed in any country. The deed was done last Saturday, the fith inst., in Sugar Valvoy, Gordon coun ty, about six miles below this place.— Tho facts are about these: At five o’clock Miss Sarah Hurras,- daughter of W. T. Burns, left ber homo to go to her sister’s about a mile distant. When a quarter of a mile from homo she was attacked by a fiend in human shape and dragged into the woods. She screamed for as sistance and was heard by several persons. All supposed it was a negro man whipping his daughter, until the report of a gun, accompanied by three loud shrieks, were hoard. Immedi ately two men, by the name of Pearce, ran to the spot whence issued the sounds. On arriving there they found Miss Burns on the ground in her last death struggle* She lived but a few I moments. | On examination it was discovered' ■ that the unfortunate woman had beerr shot through the body near the waist. Also, with a large pistol or gun, a ter rible blow had been inflicted j ust above the left eye, and which crashed the_ skull. The effects of another crushing blow, on the back part of the head, were visible. Her clothes were iiter allv torn into shreds. On Sunday morning I visited the place whoro the murder was commit ted. I examined the ground closely ; and from all appearances, she mado a dosporato resistance. The bu-hes woro torn and twisted in every con ceivable manner. Near whero site lay, when fouud, was a largo sweot gttin stick, which had been broken off near the roadsido. It is supposed she fought with it until killod. Trie murderer is suspected of being a negro man employed by Mr. Boaz. A short time previous to the murder, this negro used unbecoming language to Miss Bums. On Thursday night he moved his clothos from Mr. Burns’ houso. He was seen the day of the murder on the same road, near which Miss Burns was killed. Great excitement prevails through out the country. Search is being made for tho negro in every direction ; hut up to 5 o’clock, last evening, no thing was heard of his whereabouts. The jury examined witnesses till late yesterday orenTisg; but tboy keep everything secret. Description of no gro as follows. He is a dark, copper-colored mulat to ; weighs about 106 lhe.; twenty-one years of age ; quick spoken and stut tering , a doggish countenance ; rather lame in one leg, awl at tho time of tho murder had on a white shirt and copperas pants. Ho was raisod in Walton county, where lse is supposed to have gone. It is hoped that all persons will bo vigilant in trying to bring him to justice. The above ia a true statement of the facts.

Remedy for Red Ants. —At this .season of tho year many house-keepers aro gieatly unnoyed by hordes of these tiny mites Then fill the sugar buck et, lurk in the sugar bowl, and infest all eatables. If tho leaves of young ivy or fresh wiutorgreen are scattered over the shelves, it will rout the whole army. Those house-keepers who cannot readily obtain these leavse will find that hits of camphor gum scattered over the shelves will prove an antidote, or a sponge can bo sprin kled over with sugar and laid near their war path. In the morning it will swarm with the red mites; dip it in scaldine: water, and they will never eat sugar or be oaton as its substitute. Mts.
