Dentil of Mrs. II. V. .Johnson.
I)ul>lin (Juzcltc.
The death of this estimable lady
occurred at her home, at Sandy
drove, in Jefferson county, on the
15th of January. For more than
half a century she had walked by
the side of the lamented llerschel
Ah Johnson with a wifely devotion,
such as few women arc capable of
possessing. , When very young, she
was wooed and won as the beauti
ful Annie Polk, by a gentleman of
sterling character named Walker.
Though fair, and more resem
bling a daughter of the gods, the
night dews of death gathered
around her while yet quite young,
and claimed her first love, after a
wedded bliss of eight months. The
weeds then enwrapped her, and for
a time sorrow weighed down her
young life. But there were yet
brighter days, and when led to the
altar a second tunc by one so wor
thy, the wounds upon her young
heart were partially healed, and
tne day proved hut the dawning of
a bright, happy and useful life.
Few women possessed a higher
intellectual, and none a sweeter and
more lovely disposition. Endowed
with a rich mind, a classical educa
tion, conversational powers une
qualed, and a beauty unsurpassed,
it was no wonder that she was the
magnet in society. It seems that
in no position did she seem so much
at home as mistress of the Execu
tive Mansion, at the old capital.—
She descended from a noble line of
ancestors, from the State of Alary-
land, and was related on the pater
nal side to ex-President Polk. As
wife, mother and friend, no life has
fewer blemishes. Pure, gentle,
kind, and with a hand that carried
a. balm to sorrowing hearts, her
friends were legions,

‘straight,’ without exception. Cu
cumbers also cost $1 a piece at this
time of year.”
“What do you think of those?”
usked the dealer in extravagant
luxuries as ho produced a pair of
huge ripe tomatoes and surveyed
their line proportions with the eye
of an epicure. “Those arc samples
of a lot that are just going to a lady
on Walnut street. Their price, did
you ask? Well, there’s no profit in
it for us, hut she is an old customer
and wo shall let her have them at
SO cents a pound. It’s only an ac
commodation, however.”
“What other extortionate allure
ments can you offer?” ventured the
reporter.
“Oh: we have hothouse pears,
Italian oranges, pomegranates—”
“Any watermelons ?”
“No, sir, no watermelons. Sorry
I can’t show you one.”
Then the reporter left, explain
ing that he was looking for a water
melon, but did not care for peaches
or strawberries out of season.
A Kentucky Vendetta.
Atlanta Journal.
Further information received
from Hichiieu intensities the horri-
hlcncss of the affair briefly stated in
our telegraph columns a few days
ago, concerning the duel with
knives between two young men of
that place, ltichlieu is a small in
land village in the northern por
tion of Logan county. It scorns
that a deadly vendetta, dating
hack sixteen years, lias existed be
tween the llardison family on the
one side, and the Bonsons of the
other jhotli being extremely wealthy
and highly influential. Sixteen
years ago old man Jim Hardison
and Bob Bronson engaged in a dif
ficulty at a log rolling, and the for
mer brained the latter with a broad-
ax. Ho was subsequently tried
and acquitted at a session of the
Hreuii court in Morgantown, But-
ler county, Kentucky. This greatly
enraged the entire Bronson faction,
and ever since the memorable trial
which is yet fresh in the minds of
ninny of the citizens, numerous
quarrels and shooting and cutting
scrapes have occurred from time to
time.
A few days ago, George Hardison
find Harry Bronson, sons of Jim
Hardison and Boh Bronson, res
pectively, met at Hichiieu. Both
Were drinking some, and the had

With words of defiance, they

diet hue rankling in their heart-,
and they fought to the death. The

“• the tragedy beil)
uul found
the great Tyco lady at home. It
was raw and chill as a New York
November, hut Mrs. Thorn strolled
about, barefooted, wearing a single
calico garment, and wrapping her
self in a white blanket with red
and blue stripes across the ends.—
Her black hair was brushed to sat
iny smoothness, braided and tied at
the end with a coquettish blue rib
bon, and her arms were covered
with bracelets up to her elbows.—
She is a plump matron, fat, fair and
forty, in fact—and her house is a
model of neatness and order, ller
pallatial residence is built on the
general plan, the one large room
having a raised platforjn around
the sides, small, cabin-like bedroom
in one corner, with glass doors, and
all calico curtains. The square
fire-place of stones, in the centre of
the main living room, is about to
he done away with, an improved
cooking stove having arrived by
this steamer .for this great lady of
Tyco. When Airs. Thorn had re
luctantly brought out a dozen pairs
or more of silver bracelets to show
us, we began to believe that her
wealth was really as bound
less as her neighbors say it is.—
Her arms were covered with silver
strips, as if with jointed mail, and
there seemed no limit to the riches
her dozens of trunks and chests
contained. Like all Indians, she
puts her faith in blankets, and her
house is a magazine of such items
of wealth, w hile deep in her cedar
boxes are such trifles of tho toilet
as velvet dresses and fur robes of
wonderful quality. When the
steamer left here in June, Airs.
Thorn commissioned the captain to
buy her a bonnet of the latest style.
The gallant tar muddled himself
with millinery all the time he was
in Portland, and evolved therefrom
a broad-brimmed, gray straw hat,
faced with dark green velvet, and
trimmed with a wreath of poppies
and a trailing crimson feather.—
Airs. Thorn’s face beamed with
pleasure at sight of it, hut the ac
companying hill of twelve dollars
put her economical soul to torture,
and it was with mingled pride and
regret that she brought out the
new bonnet to show it to us. \\ hen
she set it atop of her broad, plump
face and cast down her eyes with a
conscious air of hecomingness, the
scene was worth photographing.
She was a true Christian, and her
faith was a halm of comfort and a
source of joy during that long lite
of usefulness. Death came to her
as gently as a passing zephyr, wan
dering through groves of bloom
and detached the delicate flower—a
smile lit up the weary countenance
and tho angels carried off the spirit
of a noble woman.
Put them to Work.
The Savannah Times: The city
is about overrun with tramps and
vagrants, many of whom almost
terrorize the people in the suburbs
by their persistent clamor for food
and shelter. Some of them have
regular rendevous, where they meet
and formulate their plans to get a
living and slum work. The Legis
lature passed a law as follows:
“All persons wandering or strolling
about in idleness, who are able to
work, and have no property to sup
port them; all persons leading an
idle, immoral, or profligate life, and
who have no property to support
them, and who are able to work,
and who do not work; all persons
able to work, and having no visible
property to support them, and who
have not some visible and known
means of a fair, honest and repu
table livelyhood; all persons who
have a fixed abode who have no
visible property to support them,
and who live by stealing, or trading
in, bartering for, or buying stolen
property, and all professional gam
blers, living in idleness, shall he
deemed and considered vagrants.”
The Savannah Times: A report
er of the 'I'imes was shown Satur
day morning by a prominent officer
a spurious silver dollar, so nicely
stamped and fixed that it would in
deed he difficult to detect that it is
not genuine, unless when weighed,
when it would be found a trifle less
than the composition of a silver
dollar. The one which was in the
hands of the government officer
was sent to him to use as a sample,
with instructions from the depart
ment to look out for it. The in
structions seem to have come from
a special officer in New Orleans to
the department, as it is supposed
that a gang of expert counterfeiters
are working and operating in that
city, as many of the spurious coins
have passed currency there. The
coinage of the counterfeit, its
stamping and general appearance
arc so correct in every detail that a
casual notice cannot discover its
bogus character.

Richmond, Ya., January 28.—In
the House of Delegates the effect of
the Democratic two-thirds majority
was developed to-day by the pas
sage of two bills over the govern
or’s veto, viz: The hill amending
the charter of Portsmouth, and tho
hill giving full power to the regis
ter of the land office to appoint
capitol police. These appointments
have previously required the ap
proval of the governor. Both hills
had already been passed by the
Senate over the governor’s veto,
and have therefore become laws.—
The hill to remove from the gov
ernor’s power the appointments ot
boards of directors of the lunatic
asylums in the State was passed.—
Tho resolution passed by the Sen
ate a few days ago, requesting Gen
eral Mahone to resign his seat in
the United States Senate came up,
and was agreed to without debate.
