Here i* the proposition ;

In this beautiful display Bird, we may sev,
Boleiun commemoration, there i< nothing i
objectionable, yet, neither the living nor
the dead is honefUted. There is nothing
in that that soothes the widow's limit or
aids her in ]iroviding for herself and do-
Jietident ones. If the H' ntli hud succeed
ed, they would have hud n government to
pension ami support them ; but with the
cause, they-lost their protr ' e rind pro

thrown upon the dust to wither in an hour.
Now allow me through the columns of
your paper to make tho suggestion that
every oounty in tho South organize Mu
inemorin! Societies and tlint everybody ho
invited to become members upon the
condition that they pay fifty cents per an
num. These funds to bo distsilmted
among the widows and orphans of de
ceased soldiers. None who are sincere in
their memorial demonstrations will object
to paying oue cent per week into tho treas
ury of the Ladies Memorial Society to lio
distributed by the society from timo to
time so as to confer tho greatest benefit,
lly this simple contribution 1100110 will be
injured and many u widow ami orphan's
heart will be made gliul. While wo w ith
out a murmur submit to heavy taxation to
pensiou the widows and orphans of those
who fought against us uml oven the sol
diers who yet survive, should we hesitutu
a momet to contribute something volunta
rily to support thi widows and opiums of
those who fought and died for us. If wo
are thus penurious and ungrateful, in
Heaven's name let us cease to expore our
littleness by insulting their memory with a
fading flower. Let us confer tho needed
and wanted favors and these delicate off
erings will be truthful testimonials of our

Swindling the Indians.

, the subject of the Indian agents. It lias
j been shown, snya the Charleston News nud j
'Courier, that the redskins nro swindled;
I light tind left, with sham coffee, mouldy
flour, sandy sugar and lean and moribund
cattle. The American Indian is not a clean
or a gentle savage. There ia nothing

j purpose he serves; but a promise made to j

tho white citizens were during the reign
of the first of carpet-baggers. A little
scalping, nud roas ting, and maiming, and ;
killing generally‘are the diversions of the j
lied Indian when poor provender and
short weight laaftno long, and there must
|be a radical change in tho way of raana

; any desire to he just to the Indians aud

j to turn over the whole pension business to
! the line and stuff officers of the regular ar

no stealing there, and the Indians will get
regularly and proiuply whatever the gov
ernment allows them. This is not the
quaker policy, lint it is the shortest way to
quiet and pence. Unless something of that
sort be done, there w ill be a deiini id for a

llow Diamonds Auk Forxikd.— The ge
ological occurrence of the diamonds of
South Africa him been often described, but
some now points of interest mo brought
out in u recent paper rend before the geo
logical society of London by Professor
and Dr. Plight, They have
found the rock at PuToit's Pan and other
similar diggings to have a soft, decom
posed character, consisting <'f a soupy steal
itclike magma, with a hydrate brOlir.yte,
clirystals of new veriuicnlite mineral,
called vualile, opaline silica, and other non
essential i'o stitnents. This rock lms been
extensively metamorphosed and fractured
and in mat y places broken through by
I dikes of an igneous diorite, It is assert
I ed that "tho diamonds occur more plcnti
! fully, if not i xnlnsively,” in the neignbor
i hood of tho dykes, or near them in tho
strata of the hydrous rook through which
the igneous material has been ejected. 11l
; confirmation of this view the writers urge
the distinctive character of the diamonds
I in different localities and their slmrp, nna
-1 traded character. How the diamonds nre
; formed can hardly be explained, though is
iis a point of considerable interest, if it
may lie accepted, that the metamorphosed
bronzite rock possibly at places of its con
tact with carbonaceous shales,, was the
! original home of tho diamond.

The Waycross editor of the Valdosta
Times says that one of the objects held in

the most available and practicable route
for the proposed timber canal, running
straight, an will be seen on the map, from
the Alapnha river through the Okefeuokee
Swamp, and by the north end of Fiord's
island to a point all the St. Mary’s liver
six miles above Trader’s Mil, a distance of
about sixty miles. It will lie seen tlint a
canal running from the point wo li ive des
ignated on the Ala aha river will pretty
much follow the same course of the small
streams mentioned, and will meet with no
obstruction until it reaches Floyd’s Island,
and with but little there.— Sav. JVews.

From information obtained from friends

Our barber or, Saturday Inst, got warmed up to a welding beat, was found on tlie
street motionless nud seemingly inanimate and by the C’ity Marshall was mistaken for
a barrel of whiskey, upon which there was no revenne stamp. So with great care to
prevent leakage be was placed upon the city dray and safely carried to Mr. Jones
Hotel, until the proper stamps could be obtained; so on Monday morning the May
or informed the barber if ho would pay seven dollars and fifty cents for falsly person
ating a barrel of whiskey, he would be rel used; wo have s<*en him oil the street, no
doubt he met the demand. George declares that eating wind pudding and sleeping
on the soft side of a pine plank is not a style of living that he admires. George is a

prefers making the above exhibit of himself to living like an honorable man. Here
