For the TArgraph and Messenger.
Fair citizen of another world,
Hew stray'dst thon hither ?
Dost thon on somo long journey fare—
And if so, whither?
Or hast thon wandered, seeking rest,
From off the highway,
And, falling asleep, become bewildered
In this lono by-way ?
Like me, thon art a stranger here,
Unknown to any;
Their beauty to their blindness is
Unworth a penny.
Thy sweetness on this desert air
Is sadly wasted;
The dews that on thy petals fall
Go all untested.
Kono know theo by thy name, but call
Thoo only “llowor,”
Nor dream thon art unlike to those
Been every hour.
But I know thoo by name, white rose,
Thou’rt Princess Royal;
And of thou loyal subjects, Bose,
Am I most loyal.
And though I be in London town,
My heart, most truly.
Is with theo in the wilderness,
Princess of Thule.

Mile. Bernhardt's dresses for Camille are
elegant and costly. In the first actsho
wears a white and gold brocaded satin,with
square neck, which shows tho fragile Sara
off in a manner which must be pleasing to
the student of anatomy. The sleeves are
short and long white gloves reach to the
shoulders. A magnificent diamond neck
lace dazzles the gallery gods, while some
wraps, bonnets, etc., complete the rig out.
In the next act she appears in a brocaded
aud plain velvet and satin of different
shades of red with a considerable amonnt
of jet fringe to accompany it. She has a
beautiful white plush bonnet which she
handles with a recklessness that shocks the
Indies. The country dress is of white
mouseline delaine with ruffles of bretonne
lace,corsage low with bouquet of gilliflow-
crs. Another dres3 is of a cream velvet
l>ainicd by hand with pink camillias, bnt-
tcrllies and hummingbird*. There aro other
things of taste and beauty. The diamond
nvcklsce is very pretty. There are six ro
settes on the front of the necklace, each
having a 2-karat brilliant in its center, and
the rest of the llowers being richly imbed
ded with small stones. There are more
than one hundred diamonds in each ro
sette, and tho jewels appear like flowers of
light when seen in a gas illuminated room.
The rosettes are held together by strings of
diamonds, which are plainly seen at tho
ends of the necklace, and each flower may
be unscrewed from tho chain and used for
a hair ornament. The value of this neck
lace is $1,000.
Bernhardt has in all twenty dresses for
her stage wardrobe, the cost of which was
7. r >,000 francs. Besides those mentioned for
Camille, there are among the others for
Adrienue Lccouvreur, all Louis XV. style,
one toilet with ivory-satin train and front
skirt of china-blue drapery, with garlands
of red and fea roses, and Alencon lace on
a painted bodice, Another toilet of bro
cade silk, especially made in Lyons, with
cascades of flowers embroidered on the
rhirt, and the bodice trimmed with Bruges
lace. The goods alone of this dress cost
twenty-five hundred francs. Another dis
habille toilet, all of satin and Languedoc
lace. For “Frou-Frou.” ivory satin dress
covered with embroidery of pearls and
mother-of-pearl. One Lampaa dress with
crimson flowers on a cream ground. One
dress all of black satin and jet, low-necked,
with a cuirass. For tho “Sphinx," one sen
sational dress, with yellow satin skirt,
black and jet waist, with two huge ravens
upholding the skirt. A house dress of bro
cade silk, with crimson and pale roses on a
cream ground, and ruby satin train.

our worthy citizens has passed away.
This morning, at the hour of 9, Mr. Rob
ert V. Scaltergood died at the residence
of bis brother, W. S. Scaltergood, near
Powersvllle, of typhoid pneumonia. Mr.

Thomasville, February 15.—Thomas-
ville is proud of her educational ad-
vantages, and Tery justly so, having s
male and female college, both of which
have attained great popularity through
out this portion of the State. Of these 1
will speak only of the former, it being a
free school, aud consequently the at
tendance much the larger. This branch
of the State University, known as the
South Georgia College of agricultural and
mechanical arts, has risen very rapidly in
popular favor through Southern Georgia
and Florida.
I begin with the faculty, that being the
fountain head from which all the know!
edge is supjioscd to spring, although
would be truly an exceptional institution
of learning did not some of the pupils
think themselves fapable of instructing
the teachers.
The president, O. D. Scott, and the pro
fessor of ancient languages, A. S. Mc-
Swaln, had for several years before the
foundation of this college given universal
satisfaction as school-teachers, which they
now continue to do in their separate dc
partments of the college.
Col. Ford, professor of mathematics, is
very much liked and respected by all the
students, both as a professor and as col
onel of tho battalion. Tho two others,
Professors J. F. Parker and J. H. Alex
ander, graduated with honor at the State
University in 1879, and were elected to
their positions respectively in August,
1879, and Januaiy, 1780. They are young
men of rare abilities aud very highly es
teemed, both by the students and citizens.
Tho number of students has steadily
increased since the opening of the term,
and lias now reached 175. A large part
of them aro from Florida, and one or
two from Alabama. All aro required to
wear their uniforms regularly, and to
drill one hour every day. They are
divided Into three companies—A, B and
0—and the officers taken from among
them. Col. Ford has introduced a good
many military regulations, which will
tend to the formation ot habits of regu
larity aud neatness. The boys thus far
have been very orderly, so that we have
had all the advantages and none of the
inconveniences attending a college.
Students are allowed to travel over the
Savannah, Florida & Western Railroad
at one cent per mile, in coming to am
returning fiom college. Board can be
had at from ton to twenty pollars per
month, and a few ot the hoys have rooms
In the upper stories of the college build
ing and get day-board elsewhere, saving
them some expense.
The average expense of the boys is
about $15 a mouth, and with the present
number of students aggregates more than
$25,003 a year, which in a town of 2,500
inhabitants makes a very material bene
fit.
A chapel for commencement exercises
is very much need aud will probably be
built soon, as $5,000 has already been
subscribed for that purpose. 8. C.
12:30 p, m.—The firm alarm was given
about 11:30 o'clock when it was discover
ed that the grocery store of J. C. Peters
was on fire. This and the next one to it,
both one-story brick buildings, were com
pletely destroyed, and a two-story brick
building occupied by W. W. Davis was
very much damaged. The loss is very
nearly covered by Insurance in the Man
hattan Insurance Company. The houses
destroyed were at the extreme northwest
of the business part of town,
raonda. The piece Is worn by Mile. Bern
hardt in “Adrienne’ Lecoavrenr,” and is re
markably beautiful. The stomacher is val
uable on account of the metals and gems
composing it, bnt principally because it is
a sample of old English or Etruscan work
now so rarely found. The body of the
stomacher is of fine gold wire beaten ont
by hand; it is 12 or 14 inches in
length and 3 in width. Upon this space
are set six cups of filigree gold, each con-
taiiiing largo turquoises, emeralds and ra
bies. Tho girdlo is studded with diamonds.
Tho money value of the entire piece is
$5,000, while to n collector it would be
worth more than twice that sum. The
stomacher is known to be at least GOO years
old; it came originally from Indin and was
in possession of tho royal family of Eng
land nntil the princo of Wales, on the occa
sion of MUe. Bernhardt’s appearance in

The diamond necklace of rosettes, sprays
and leaves which is worn in Camille has
already been described.
A bracelet of alternate diamonds and
sapphires, twelvo squares each, with four
K-carat diamonds set in each square and a
single 3-carat sapphire occupying each of
the other squares, is a beautiful and valu
able piece of jewelry. Tho valno of this
single piece is $7,000.
Another bracelet, consisting of twenty-
four 2-camt diamonds, is a charming affair,
and is estimated to be worth $4,000.
There is a string of diamonds ono thou
sand in number with a pendant, embedded
with diamonds supporting a massive horse
slioo of diamonds, tho metal being of the
finest gold.
The ornaments for the hair aro numer
ous. A hugo butterfly, brilliant with dia
monds and beryl-cut sapphires, with eyes
of glowing red rabies presents a beautiful
npjieamnce and cost $1,000.
A bracelet in the shape of a serpent,
with 200 stones, is valued at £4,000.
A string of iiearls is vnluea at $2,000.
A pair of buckles set with diamonds and
sapphires is valoed at $1,000.
A case containing seven bangle bracelets,
each a delicate strand of diamonds set in
solid fine gold, with large center stones of
diamond, rnby or sapphires, is placed at
^•>,000,
. A golden crown four inches long and two
inches deep, with diamond and sap
phire settings is a thousand dollar hair
ornament.
A crocodile bespangled with diamonds is
vnlued at $1,000, and makes a pretty hair
ornament.
^A bracelet of emeralds is placed at $2,-
A $3,000 yellow diamond pendant holds a
place in the collection.
4 crescent with five or six thousand dia
mond* is worth $2,000.
Besides these jewels Mile. Bernhardt has
countless numbers of diamonds not set,
and says she contemplates having a large
necklace made to cost at least $50,000, and
for that purpose is collecting brilliants
wherever she goes. These valuables are
earned in iron-bound packing cases of
great strength.
Mm and Around Byron.
Byron, Febraary 15.—This morning
while Mr. T. D. Warren was passing ovei
his plantation near the railroad, about
half mile above, between this and your
city, lie found Prof. Abner B. Parrott
lying near the road in a helpless condi
tion. Mr. Warren came on to town, and,
finding Supervisor Garr with his crank-
car, procured his services and went for
linn and carried him to the store room of
W. Q. Feavy & Son, to a comfortable fire,
but he was too far gone to be relieved.
He died in about fifteen minutes after be
ing carried to tbe store. Prof. Parrott was
a noble man of fine feeling and education;
had been known among our people for
several years, and one of tbe best edu
cators ever among ns, bnt, poor man, lie
bad given himself away to drink, and as
many of our good, unfortunate friends
have done, given themselves away aud
'filled untimely graves. After his death,
Prof. J. C. Parrott, bis brother, was sent
for, and he is now making arrangements
for bis burial, which will take place some
time to-morrow—don’t know where as it
lias not yet been decided. The deceased
and his brother both were originally from

Mrs. Stenhouse, of Salt Lake City, it Is
astonishing how bright and cheerful tbe
Mormon husbands become. “Notwith

The prevalence of diphtheria has crea
ted alarm In the mindis of parents that is
not warranted by tbe facts. Physicians
in private practice as well as in public
employ say tbat almost every ailment no
ticed in a child is taken for diphtheria,
and tliat diphtheria treatment is often
hastily administered by anxious parents
in innocent cases of cold. Tlieie are
frequent calls at tbe office of the Board ol
Health for a circular intended for free
distribution, and which contains instruc
tions as to what should be done when
diphtheria enters a household. An em
ploye of tho Board, of Health says that
the most important part ot this
circular is its description of the
early symptoms of tbe disease. “Give
heed,” lie says in his interpreta
tion of this part of the circular, “the mo
ment you observe signs In your child of
uuwonted weakness, fatigue or physical
debility, particularly if it is accompanied
with a little fever. Make the child fre
quently open its mouth, so that you can
observe its throat. It is in the throat that
tho lay observer will first discover any cer
tain signs of diphtheria. Never mind how
red or how much Inflamed the throat ap
pears. That does not indicate the dis
ease, Bnt the instant you see a white
spot'and detect a bad odor, run for a doc
tor. The white spot will grow. Other
white spots will appear, and eventually
they wiil run together in great blotches if
the disease is not checked. Tho time to
seek medical assistance is before the spots
run together.
Prayers were offered in many Roman
Catholic churches on Friday for protec
tion against diphtheria. The person who
desired to guard himself against It by the
efficacy of religion would kneel at the feet
of the priest aud hold two lighted candles
crossed against his throat, tbe flames ris
ing at the sides of his face. While he was
in this positiou the priest would offer the
prayer. These candles had been blessed
at the Feast of tho Purification on tbe
previous day. Candles were held against
tbe throats of children by tlieir parents,—

“Atlanta Post-Appeal.
The evils attending idleness, vaga
bondage and pauperism are of tbe most
alarming character.
This is a matter that has not received
sufficient attention in Georgia. Oar penal
system and pauper system are not calcu
lated to utilize the labor of convicts and
paupers to the best advantage. And there
is another class deserving the strict sur
veillance of the law. The State is over
run with vagrants; our cities and towns
are full of them. They tramp all over the
country neighborhoods; they get their
living by begging, swindling, stealing,
and occasionally commit blacker crimes
The devil finds work for these idle hands,
but it is not tbe kind of work that will
benefit the State.
The labor of our vagrants and paupers
properly directed, would be wotth a great
deal, and tho employment of these
classes would keep them out of mischief.
If they arc not willing to work for a
living, the law should compel them to
work. The world does not owe them a
living, aud they have no right to it unless
they give something in return for it. The
best thing that could be done at present
for all classes would be to stringently en
force the statute against vagiaucy, and
make a clean sweep of tramps and beg
gars. There is policy, philosophy and
mercy in such a course.

Considerable is being said just now
about the suppression of the negro vote
in the South. While it is true that there
is in many paits of the South a kind of
suppression of the Republican or negro
vote, it is in keeping with the present sys
tem of political party management. Take,
for instance, the negro in his own party—
the party tbat complains of suppression—
It suppresses tlio voice of a million of ne
gro voters in the whole Union by not ac
cording to them, alter an almost unani
mous request, a negro member of the cab
inet. Suppression is but suppression, let
it be in tbe selection of an humble justice
of tbe peace or in selecting a cabinet offi
cer. If colored men have a right to have
a say in selecting Mr. Mackey to repre-
sent a district in South Carolina iu Con
gress, they have a right to say something
about who shall represent this section In
the cabinet. If tbe Republicans suppress
in tbe latter, tbey must expect others to
profit by the example.
Atlanta Constitution.
gWliat we hope to make clear, if not
now, then at some future time, Is, that
the questions, and problems, and policies
which are of the most pressing im
portance to the South (as well as to the
whole country) are not necessarily of a
party, and certainly not of a partisan,
character. It Is just and proper tbat we
should Join In tbe struggle as to which
party shall control the government, and
that we should support the men most
likely to use their power and authority to
the protection of those principles which
seem best adapted to the genius of our
system, the stability of our institutions,
and the happiness of the people. But we
desire to make clear what appears to us
to bo a most impressive fact, namely,
that the problem with which the South Is
most vitally concerned Is not control ol
the government, nor even participation In
hat control. It is for this reason we
have insisted, and shall continue to In
sist, that the true Southern policy does
not lie in the direction of the strenuous
partisanship which has heretofore pre
vailed.

“Brain is the standard by which all the
selections should be made aud doubtless
will be; the selection of a man because
of his color or nationality is not Republi
can, it is un-American. If the colored
citizens are not represented in the Cabinet
by one of their own race, it is to be hoped
tliat they will not feel that they are not
represented at all. The Republican party
has long since pledged itself to the mil
lions Us bayonets made free, and their
needs will be considered atall times. The
selection of a Cabinet without a colored
member will mean no disrespect or danger
to the race. It will simply mean tliat a
better man lias been found, one more
fitted to the work at his hand, than would
be either of the men chosen by the colored
leople, and in this selection, which will
>e for the good of the whole people, none
will more quickly concur, we believe,
than the intelligent portion of the colored
race.

There are several things that Solomon

The crop of 1880-81 Is belived to bo the
largest ever made in this State. This will
enhance the reputation of South Caro
lina as a cotton growing State, and, un
less prices go very low, a crop of a mil

nest ten years.
There is in cotton cultivation in South
Carolina a feature the value of which
has not been generally taken into ac
count. This is, the certainty of at least
a partial crop, a total failure never taking
place. While tbe natural yield in Sout t
Carolina is not equal to the growth ou
the virgin soil of Arkansas and Texas,
the yield here ean be made as laigo by
high culture and liberal mauuring, with
out tbe liability to disastrous seasons
which characterizes the States which, at

highly than the South Atlantic group.
IfeeoMltjr ot Better Tax and Election
Laws.
We are pleased to see an earnest inter
est mauiiested throughout the State to cor-
red an inexcusable evil that is yearly
growing more intolerable.
At eacli session of tbe General Assem
bly an act is passed to levy an ad valorem
tax upon real and personal propsrty for
the support of the State government, the
payment of interest and part of the public
debt, also certain specific taxes for tbe
support of public institution, etc.
No provision of any consequence, how-
ever, is thought of for enforcing non-
property holders to pay the specific tax of
one dollar for educational purposes which
is levied upon all male inhabitants of the
Stale between twenty-one and sixty years
of age, unless that only those who have
paid their taxes for the year preceding the
election are qualified to vote. Tho inten
tion is not as some imagine, to make
man pay one dollar for tho privilege of
voting, but to inako all assist in rolling
along the great wave of public education,
which is intended to fit men for exercising
the right of suffrage.
How terribly is this beneficent feature
of the law prostituted! We find upon in
vestigation tbat about ono thousand ille
gal votes were cast in tbe lost State and
county election, and that between three
and four thousand men in Bibb county
Lave never paid a single dollar of poll tax
So lame is the law governing elections,
and so disgustingly is it violated, tbat
and so disgustingly is it violated, tbat
even candidates look upon a race for
oflico with the greatest dread. There

in Georgia a candidate iu addition to

Keeping the community in a turmoil until
the contest is decided. If this slate of
affairs continues, only such men as can
handle this immense floating vote will
dare to run for olliee.
To remedy this great evil, and to fill
our offices with good men in the future,
we stand in need of a general registration
law with the strictest penalties attached,
such as is in force in somo of our leading
cities and other States.
We suggest no particular sya
istratlou, but are strongly iuipr&jscd with
tbe idea tbat tlie State should distinaSy
assume tbe entire responsibility. For In
stance, the tax-receiver should be instruct
ed by law not to enter the name of any
non-property holder, white or black, upon
his digest who has failed to pay his poll-
tax for the preceding years, and all the
names entered by him on said dglest
should constitute the registry.
The tax-collector should bo required to
closo his books on the first day of Decem
ber, for it is much easier to pay taxes be
fore than after December, aud by the fif
teenth of tbe month should have every ex-
edition against property holders as well
as poll tax payers m readiness to turn
over to tbe sheriff of the county, and fur
ther furnish to the clerk of tbe Superior
court a list of all those who have paid the
taxes required of them. No one on tho
default list should be allowed to vote un
til he has had a settlement with the sher
iff:
The sheriff should bo required to give
the clerk timely notice of all settlements
in order that such names might be added
to the list or qualified voters.
Two- or three days before an election
tho clerk should close his registration
book and refuse to receive the names of
any other delinquents, to better enable
him to prepare a printed list of voters for
the election managers. Those just ar
riving at age and those over age, not
liable for poll tax, should also be re
quired to appear before tbe clerk aud
register.
Each voter should be required to vote
in his own militia district, and as ho
votes his name checked off the list by the
managers.
Those officers should be reasonably
compensated for this extra duty.
A strict law of this character would
purify our elections and greatly facilitate
the collection of the various taxes.

■Marla,” said Darby, as he laid down
the paper, “it makes my blood boil to
read about tbe way the Spaniards insult

bang away at tbe American flag whenever
tbey choose, and do so with perfect im
punity?”
■ “No, I don’t know anything about it,”
replied his wife; “let them shoot each-
other if they want to.”
“Let them shoot each other,eh!” growled
Darby. “Let the goggle-eyed, saffron-
colored, handy-shanked Spaniards shoot
into our ships on the high soas ? Why,
Maria, I am surprised to hear you utter
such sentiments.”
“Look here, John Darby,” snapped his
wife; “I’ve got too much work to do to
waste auy time in watching what the
Spaniards or the Chinese are doing.
Whon I get through cleaning up this
house during tbo day, and lugging you

much.” “

William’s speecb,read at the opening of the

tbe “workmen’s accidents insurance” bill
will be welcomed by the Reichstag as a
complement to the legislation against so

the bill to regulate tbe constitution of
trade guilds by affording the means for
organizing isolated bodies of persons en
gaged in thh same trade, thus raising their
economic capacity and social aud moral

London, February 16.—At a meeting
of the Land League in Dublin to-day, a
letter from Mr. Parnell was read, in which
he says : After frill consideration and
consultation, I hare decided it to be my
duty to remain iu Parliament and Ireland
during the present crisis. If we are
worthy of the occasion here, tbe American
people and the Irish nation in Ameiii
will give ns proportionate sympathy

ing or reaction in Ireland will pi
disastrous results in America. Ti
pelled Irish members have almost
iinously decided to remain in tlieir
iu Parliament, and offer every res
tbat the forms of the House wiilpei
the coorclou and arms bills,hence the
d'etat of the passage of the gagging
Iution is most encouraging. I can also*
of some use daring the passage of tbe 1
bill, in pointing out In what respe
may fall short of a final settlement.
“Two courses were giveu to tho Irish
party: either to retire in a body from the
House and announce to their constituents
that nothing remained but sullen acqui
escence or an appeal to force in opposition
to that force which is used against us, or
else to steadfastly attempt to deepen aud
widen the agitation by appealing to the
great masses of Eugland and Scotland
against the territoiialisin and sbopocracy
which dominate in Parliament. The last
aL'ernative has many elements of hope.
There Is nothing Iu the coercion bill to
compel tho Irish to modify their attitude
of open organization and passive resis

much on the intimidation produced by
the first arrests, which would probably be
widely scattered but not numerous. The

generations, depends upon the tenant

whether peace negotiations are proceed

London February 10 The Daffy
Neva, in a leading editorial article this
morning, says the Cabinet met yesterday
on a somewhat hasty summons to consider
proposals of negotiation from the Boers.
Though the proposals are vague and gen

tbe government as affording at least a
starting point toward a discussion of the
terms of au aibicable settlement.
