SISHI DOORS! BUNDS! C@mont, Plaster, As Atlanta correspondent states that on the 6th Messrs. J. L. .Taylor and W. P. Hardee, rcpiesentativcs of the Savannah, Florida and Western Rail- nsd Company, had a conference with the Railroad Commission. They made j ^p^a?.ln~dia(anon, but a lull Statement of the business of ihew 0|hew m ,, nUined thclr ground. ibeir fears and commenced a lively attack upon his aligatorehip, but ibev soon found they had a heavy and dangerous job on their harnlr, they only had for weapon* the gigs before referred to, and they were not snfficient, they could make hut very little impression- with those, for his hide was too tough to allow the gigs to enter, and then tho ali gator would snap off the handles of their gigs andYob them of their de fense. Just at this timo the fight became exceedingly interesting, the men would punch tho monster with their gigs, and he would snap the gigs and rear himself out of the wa ter standing upon his hind feet and tail and makedesporatc plunges at bis 'assailants on tho bank. Jnst about tbo time be was up high in the air ready to make hit plunge, one of the party would plunge his gig iuto.his side and throw him off his balance and back into the water. At the time he was making these desperate efforts to get at his tor mentors on the bank of the creek, bo would rear or bellow like a Hon in a rage, indeed the sound was fright ful, shaking the leaves from tne trees in the vicinity and almost deateng those near by. "But with bis mighty noise He couldn’t ecarc Uuee boise .* Not all of them, too, did give back a little—one of them being a very fleshy man—having a consider able amount of surplus flesh, but none to spare to that aligator, con cluded that “prudence was the bet ter .part of valor,” stayed off at a FOR SALE P.Y GEO.

The com mission has the matter under consideration. bow much be would like to have a female doctor come tripping in and throw her fur-lined cloak over a chair, and take her hat aud gl-vcs and throw them on a lounge, and come to the bed with a pair of fca- rinc bine eyes, with a twinkle iu the corner, and look’biui iu the wild, changeable eyes, and ask him to run out his tongue. Suppose he knew bis - tongue was coated so it luokcd'liko a yellow Turkish towel, do you suppu-e ho would want to rnn'oot ov> r five or’six inches of the Miwer part of it and let that female doctor put her eve on it io see bow ftir-redit was? Not much. He would not let her see it for 25 cents admis sion. We have all seen doctors, put i heir hands under the bedclothes -iinl foil of a titan's feet to see if they were cold. If a female doctor .huuld do that it would give a man crumps in the legs. A male doctor cun put li>i hand on a man's stom ach, and liver and lungs, nnd ask him if ho feels any pain there; but If a female doctor should do the same thing it would make a man sick, nnd lie would want to get up ■inrt kick himself for employing n female doctor. Oh, there is no use talking, it would kill a man. Now, suppose a man has heart discaso.ana a female doctor should want to listen to tho beating of bis heart. Sho would lay her left car on his left breast, so her eyes and rosebud mouth would be looking right in his face, aud her wavy hair would be scattered all around there, getting tangled in the buttons of bis uight-shirL Don’t you sup- no«e his heart would get in shorn twenty extra beats to the minute? You bet! Aud she would smile— we will bet $10 stm would smile— nnd show her pearly teeth, and her ripe lips would be working as though she were counting the beau, and he would think she was whisper ing to him, aud—IVcll, wbat would he be doing all this time? If he was hot dead yet, which would' be a wonder, his left hand would brush the hair away from her temple and kind of stay thereto keep the hair away, and his right hand wonld get sort of nervens and move around to the back of her head, and when she had counted the beats a few minutes and was raising her head bo would draw her up to him and kiss hhr once for luck, if he was as bilious a« a Jersey swamp angel, and have her charge it in the bill. And then reaction would set in, anil he would he as weak as a.cat, and she would have to fan him and rub his head till he got over being ner- von.i, and then make ont hU pre scription after he got to sleep. No; all of a man's symptoms change the Republicans for TTniled States Senator, and defeated by Hon. Joshua Hill, which was the . only defeat of bis life; in every instance when he had been a candidate be fore the pcoplo he has been success- ful. After bit defeat for Senator he was appointed by Gov.

He lias devoted hi* life to business pursuits, being a candidate for no office, but acting with the Demo* cratiq party, slue* 1872 upon their reconstruction platform. When General Gordon resigned hit posi tion iu >hc Senate, Governor Brown was appointed'to fill the vacancy; he was afterwards elected over Gen. A. R.
