)[#, President and Brother Editors :—
Your worthy President has done me too
much honor, certainly. When I was in

hands upon. At the great shears with
which old bars cut into pieces for re-rol
ling, the good is separated from the poor
iron, and the former is manufactured into
spikes, Ac., to be sold at perhaps $100 a
ton ; while the Southern Company which
is iiaving its “iron re-rolled,” gets‘back
only so much of it as is very bad, inter
mixed with all the trash of the establish
ment. This practice, we are informed.

gcr’s rude home. Thc good-hearted street-
sweeper had taken him in. laid him on
his own bed—lie had not spoken once—
and now he was dying.
This was tlie story of thc rough man.
And now, through dark alleys, among
miserable tenements, that seem to topple
down upon their heads, into the loneliest
and dreariest suburbs they pass. That
white-haired minister walked up a flight
of stairs that croaked beneath his tread,
anil then into the death-room.
It was, in truth, a miserable place.
A glimmering light stood on a broken
chair. There was the rough wall, there
thc solitary garret window, with the rain
heating through the rags and straw, which
stuffed tlie broken pains
a heap of cold ashes the small valise which
it seemed the stranger had with him.
In one corner, on the coarse straw of
the ragged bed lay the dying man. lie
was hut half dressed—his legs were con
cealed by military hoots.
The aged preacher drew near and look
ed upon him. And as he looked, throb
throb—you might hear the death-watch
ticking in the shattered wall.
It was the form of a strong man, grown
old with care more than age.
There was a face that you might look
upon once, an<l yet wesu* it in your mem-
orv forever. Let us bend over the bed
and look on that face.
A bold forehead seamed by one deep
wrinkle between the brows—long locks of
dark hair, sprinkled with gray—lips firm
ly set, yet quivering ns though they had
a life separate from tlie life of the man—
and then two large eyes, vivid, burning,
unnatural in their steady glare.
Ah, there was something too terrible in
that face—something so full of unuttera
ble loneliness, unspeakable despair—that
the aged minister started back in horror.
But look, those strong arms are clutch
ing at the vacant air—the death-sweat
starts in drops upon thc cold brow—thc
man is dying!
Throb—throb—throb—beat thc death-1
watch in the shattered wall. i

The Rolling Mill at Atlanta is a large,
efficient and worthy enterprise. Southern
roads should patronize it, although it
charges $30 for re-rolling, instead of $21,
the Northern price. The reason is, it
gives back the iron sent to it—never steal
ing thc good. As it makes no new rails,
there is no temptation to do anything but
justice to its customers. Its iron is pro
nounced excellent by thc Superintendent
of the State road, and it has re-rollcd sat
isfactorily for the Georgia, thc Macon A
AA'cstcrn and the South western ; and, we
believe, will soon commence on a thou
sand tons for the Central road
11 is of the highest importance that such
an establishment as this should be liber
ally—fully—sustained at a point conve
niently accessible to thc Companies inter
ested. Atlanta is an admirable location.
There all tlie processes can and will be
watched and if foul play were attempted
it would soon become known. But we
believe Messrs. t0
men of high the
temptation to roguerj^^^^^w
The extreme capacity of the Atlanta
Mill is 30 tons a day, but practically it
turns out about GOO tons a month. At
this rate, it has business engaged ahead
for many months, and we cannot doubt
that it is a permanent institution.

Hr. Broderick, and the Legislature of
California.
The Legislature of California has in
structed the Hon. David C. Broderick to
resign his seat in the Senate, and there is,
therefore, some little hope that that body
will be rid of his presence. The follow

of the Senate of California, on thc 21st of
Jan nary.—Const.
Mr. Holden offered the following:
AA'hereas, the ninth session of thc Leg
islature of the State of California passed
resolutions instructing our Senators in
Congress to support tlie policy of the Na

mission of Kansas under thc Lecompton
Constitution ; and whereas, the Hon. Da
vid C. Broderick—a United States Sena
tor from this State—not only disregarded
said instructions, hut indirectly charged
! that the members of the said ninth session
of thc Legislature had misrepresented the
wishes of their constituents; and whereas,
the people of this State, at the last elec
tion, triumphantly sustained the action of
thc members of said ninth session of the
Legislature : therefore, for the purpose of
giving to the said Hon. David C. Broder
ick a full understanding of the position he
occupies to his constituency, be it—

concurring) that the Legislature of a State

It happened one day that some difficul

when, to be avenged, Henry Shynder took
along with him a book in which he recor

throne to try their causes. He was heard
riage when the best of their manhood is
gone. The women must choose for them
selves which it shall be, for the matter is
solely in their hands. Let mothers say
to their daughters : “ put on that calico
gown ; go into the kitchen and prepare
dinner ; take charge of this household and
fit yourself to become a wife and mother.
Let tlie young woman cheerfully consent
to such service; and instead of lavishing
all thought, and time, and money upon
tlie adornment of the body, seek to accus
tom the hands to proper industry, and to
school the mind to proper tastes. Then

The Doctor and his Patient.
Of all the professions, trades or occupa
tions that engage the minds of men, tliat
of physicians is the most diversified. In
locating he lias to find out thc constitu
tion of those he is called upon to visit, for
it is frequently the case that success may
be owing more to a deep and thorough
knowledge of the constitution of the pa
tient than mere common-place applica
tions. As an illustration of this we will
[The trial proceeded throughout precise- relate an anecdote of one of our old phy
sicians, who, if he finds physic will not
cure, tries other means, as the case may
require.
Dr. G. had long been the attending
phj-sician of a young lady past her teens,
and effected with certain disorders inci
dent to a want of occupation, and the care
of a family. She sends for the doctor in
season and out of season ; he rushes out
ly like the former, and with the same re
sult.]
“ Now I tries mincsclf. Henry Sliyn-
der! Henry Shynder! stand up. AA hat
you been doin in dis lower world ?”
“ Ah! Lort, I docs not know.”
“ AA’ell, Henry Shynder, hasn’t you got

“A’es, Lort, I liash.”
“ AYell, Henry Shynder, didn’t you nev

that it is any part of the programme of
the new Order to provoke a trial of
strength with the Democracy, with only
such an inadequate force in the field.- -
Their disastrous experience on former oc
casions is a sufficient guarantee that this
will not be attempted. AYe will not stul
tify them by supposing that they can en
tertain the shadow of a hope of success,
except by the aid of recruits gUhcrcd
from sources outside their own organiza
tion.
Now whence are these to he drawn ?—
The American party at the North has
been disbanded, or swallowed by tlm
great Republican whale. Nor is the mi
raculous restitution of Jonas reserved for
“ American,” it constituted the Northern
wing of the old AY big party, and had be
come so thoroughly abolitionized that its
Southern allies indignantly and nobly de
serted it. Such intrinsically base metal
cannot gain currency by a new superscrip
tion. AY ell, can they hope to get the re
quired assistance from the disaffected
Democrats ? Never. Tlie grounds of their
disaffection present terms and conditions
which will operate as a bar to such coali
tion. Certainly the Republican party
cannot serve their purpose. A conserva
tive Republican is a confusion of ideas a-
hout as comprehensible as a sane mad
man, an honest thief or a sober drunkard.
AA’e repeat, therefore, that when our Amer
ican friends declare their intention to com
bine all the conservative elements of the
opposition, they mean to array all the ele
ments of the opposition, not discrimina
ting between Americans, disaffected Dem
ocrats and Republicans, or they mean no
thing.
A word in regard to thc especial object
of their malevolence—the Democratic par
ty. AA'e confess an abatement of our pride
in this organization. It has lost much of
