When Afc- treated like other places w hat rend the air! There la a great deal of tenderness and poetic sweetness in the character of James B. Randall. We take the following thoughts, so full of pathos, from his last letter to the Augusta OflUy yWifcl flij T^at vms kind a^oiT George W. Childs in giving $100 to aid in complet- a r memorial movement .to Jdr. 4 pbens. Hr. Childs is very rich, but lie nafiniwy demands upon his purse. Of course, our people are uot-expected, they -hppid gire, ia smajl amounts, enough to honorably and even grandly mark the dust of Georgia’s most re markable sou, whole soul was exalted b^ the love he bore the native State. Bkkchf.r says: “Imbor organized has a great deal to learn, is will learn it, too. Organized wealth has a great deal of humanity to learn, and respon sibility; but it will learn it.” The South is the most quiet and or derly and moral section of the‘Union, and she is so despite all the efforts of the Republican party to make it ap pear ••we are such barbarians. Tux youug gentlemen of New York are at work on an “elite directory.” These dudes will admit no one who believes in honest toil for a living. ••let such in God's name on due wheal be fed. Hut k*l unbound Democrats eat barley bread." Tux Macon Telegraph gets off this piece of faeetiousuess: “'I’here Is a difficulty brewing between summer and winter, all on account of the lat ter setting down too long in the lap of sprtug. This is the latest scandal.” Thk St. lauds riot shows that the leaders of the striker are nimble to re strain them from violence. The Knights pa*d hut little attention to the appeals of prominent leaders, 4 onfusjon and disorder prevailed. The outlook is not a pleasing one. Atj.janta is anxious for direct c< m- Uiuiiicaiion with tin* “big ships.” She has just found out that it Is not well for a custom house to be so far from deep water. Atlanta has trouble about water anyhow. It is a pity for a port of entry to be In a “dry” town. Ur. E. L. Coarally has received front Senator Brown tiiree of the cot ton seed, four thousand years old, re cently unearthed iu Egypt and tor- warded to the Senator by Ids friend, S. S. Cox. The seeds were little black ones, a trifle wrinkled, with hits of cotton still dinging to them. Gladstone’s plans seem practical. Ireland will have a parliament consist ing of two orders. That will be do mestic legislation for Irish affairs. There would be no Irish peers iu the British Parliament. The Roman Cath olics will be eligible to.office. Patience on Ireland’s part may win the day. Col. Jas. M. Smith, of Oglethorpe, replies fo Ur. Willis F. Westmoreland Iu the Athens Banner- Watchman. His reply is a strong one. He shows the Atlanta Uoctor up in a pitiable plight, and ha* doubtless exhibited the “true inwardness” of this thing. Col. Smith shows that the Doctor takes too much whisky and opium at times. Thk Sparta Ishmaelite embodies much truth in this paragraph: “It is the inalienable right of every niau and woman to refuse to work for inade quate wages, and no sane man dis putes it; but when a striker goes be yond this, and says that no other man shall take the job at the price which he rejects he becomes an enemy to law and order and private rights, and is amenable to the charge of communis tic tendencies.” No man iu the United States has in dulged in more bloody-shirt oratory thau Logan. And when old Conger got up in the Senate and blew off the steam of his hatred to the South, be thought he was doing I/Ogan a favor. But he spoilt Logan’s bill. I.ogan deals in red paint oratory ou the hust ings, but be did not care to stir up Southern pride just as his bill was on passage. Conger made him drink his own poison onetime. Thk Atlanta Constitution says the railroads wish to seek revenge on At lanta because she is responsible for the Railroad Commission. This claim for Atlanta cannot be sustained. Indeed, when that great friend of the Comrais- siou, Hon. Samuel Baruett, >vas not reappointed,' uo cry went up In At lanta in behalf of the Commission. If one place more than another is re sponsible for the Commission that honor must be accorded to Americus. ALEXANDER Of STEPHENS. A Traihlaf Tribute From a Lev. JEFFERSON DAYIS AT HOME. !

Geutle- The Bartow moundt. C'artereville American, 6lh. So much has been written concern ing the inouuds in our county that many ofonr readers are familiar with them aud their location. They have attracted much attention, and a con siderable amount of speculation lias been indulged in concerning them. As to their origin, our information Is purely negative. We know that w'e did not build them, and the tradi tions handed down to us by the In dians inform us that they did not build them. Further than this we know comparatively little ab mt them. These mounds are located on the north side of the Etowah river, in Bartow county, being thrde in num ber. The largest mound is some sixty- five feet high and measures around its base some eleven*hundred feet. The others are much smaller—not more than one-fifth as large as the largest. Many curious relics have been gath ered from and around them for many years past. Among them are images of several kinds, supposed to be idols before which the makers bowed down and rendered rites. Pipes of various models, carved from stone and made of clay. Vari ous specimens of pottery, and many other curious tilings. These images are rather remarkable pieces of statua ry, showing considerable skill in carv ing stoue. The pi|>es used there are much on the same pattern as the mod em smoker uses. The thin pottery shows much -skill and evinces sonic knowledge of dyes. The writer has seen a piece of some vessel which ap peared finely glazed and was of title red color on the surface much differ ent from the body of the material. The recent overflow’ of the Etowah river has brought to light much more than ever before. Among other things scattered upon the ground about the mounds are quautiti- s of human bones, and iu one place was exposed a vault from which the eyeless sockets of a grinning, ghastly skeleton looked forth upon the worlu of two ceuturies of rest. Some thing has been said of the marvelous size of a skull and jaw* none that were found; this we think is not so. mar velous as the imagination* of the nun. who would create a fourteen footer from the remains of a mau who was not far from six feet. We saw something that resemble 1 a marble and doubtless the younger of the people played “Knuckle-dowu“ and “vent you any.” There were also discs varying in size from a dime to a dollar, though somewhat thicker. These are scattered all over the ground. A friend of ours from Atlanta who, viewing the mound and sights, inno cently suggested that the boys were indulging iu a game of short cards, and when run in by the police scatter ed them far and wide in their effort to evade the vigilant officers. In one of the vaults was found a small piece of matting made of cane and exactly similar to a closely woven chair bottom. Upon this matting were small pieces of copper as long as a man’s finger and almost as wide, upon whicn the sknll of the dead rest ed. The mound is well worth seeing, and w*e suppose that Mr. Tumliu, the proprietor, will grant permission to any one desiring to see it. The mounds should be examined, as they might afford us valuable informa tion of a people perhaps now extinct. Getting Ready for Examination. New Ifaven Cor. New York Sun. In October last, a tall, lean and lank Yankee student, who graduated from Yale in 1880, appeared in New’ Haven and secured lodgings in a boarding, bouse. He had been in the city but a short time before he received a great number of calls from the juniors iu the scientific department. .Inst why. this Yankee was so attractive to the soinewrhat fastidious Yale boys did not appear at the time, hut it is umv un derstood. The former stmieut, who was called Smith, was the Inventor of an ingenious system of stenographic tattooing that, when understood, ena- hoi y effective retreat 'that he has selecl A correspondent Was the only one to leave the train at Beauvoir this morn ing, and was directed • by the station agent to follow a lane through the trees and towards the Gulf until he came to Mr. Davis* home. —it-Wnwar pretty walk of a quarter of a mile over a sandy road. A hut, around whose door the negro inmates were laying iu the sun, stands at the head of the lane. On the left hand is a piece of land be longing to Mr. Davis, devoted to grape culture aud surrouuded by a high .wire fence. Nobody is “warned” to keep off this ground nor threatened with the full extent of the law ” if he does not keep off, but iw’o or three notices catch the eye aud fancy, too, w hich read : "Please do not trespass.” The tone of these simple sigus along the ialie is in keeping with ail that one hears about Mr. Davis from liis neigh bors in Beauvoir or his admirers else where. He’s nothing if not gentle. On the right is a wood just touched with green from the hand of Spring. There are tall piues, live oaks, with handfuls of Spanish moss clinging to their branches, and here and there a magnolia living in sweet retirement. Tlie blue forget-me-nots are |)ee|>ing out in places by the side of your path. Whatever you see—the very voices of the birds you hear—seem to lie tinged with a romantic sadness, aud the whole place seems haunted by the memories of a cause that -was lost* The lane sud denly brings you to the top of a bluff, overlooking the blue watersof the Gulf of Mexico, aud tliere is the home ol Mr. Davis. There are half a dozen frame buildings of various sizes scat tered irregularly over four or five acres of ground, the whole inclosed by a high board feuce. The many trees are not in rows; there are flowers, but not in beds; there are paths, but they are neither straight nor curved. Every thing is as nature made it. A very old colored servant who was currying, a correspondingly old horse, dofiej his hat to tiie correspondent from a dis tance which only Southern courtesy could'spait The residence fronts uj>on the Gulf—:t square, two-story, old- fashioned frame dwelling, with five pillars standing solemn guard ou its broad \ eramla. It was called a man sion once and by courtesy is called sc st U. Tlie veranda commands a beau tiful view of the waters of the Gulf, with ('at Island lying low ou the right. A few easy-chairs are scattered near the entrance, all old-fashioned aud comfortable, aud the easiest- looking of them all bears tlie name “Mrs. .1. Davis?” The doors stood open and a young negro boy led the correspondent into a wide hall tilled with lounges and oil paintings and ornaments, but nothing was bright or new or modern. All lie- longed to that- rather indefinite period which the .Southern man refers to as “before the war.” The boy said Mr. Davis was not very well and had uot left his room that morning—an eveut that is not uncommon with him who is close upon his fourscore years. The correspondent wrote a note" expressing regret at Mr. Davis’ iudisposiiion and asking if he would at some later date oblige the World with a chat upon the aflairs ol thoSouth,political and other wise. After a few minutes the messen ger returned with Mr. Davis’ regrets that lie was unable to entertain his visitor ami with the following note: March 30 ’SO “Dear Sir: lam not well enough to leave my chamber or 1 would orally reply to your request for my opiuious, that I ani not i;. office, am not a candi date for official position, therefore have a rigid, as it is my \vish, to lead this life of retirement in which the w’ill of others as well as my own has placed—res pee tfnil y, Jefferson Davis.” Mrs. Davis and their daughter, Varffia A. Davis, are the only other occupants of the homestead. The cor respondent met the latter—a comely and wiuuing hut wholly unpretentious girl of three and twenty. From the house to the big green gate that opens on tlie bluff oyer the Gulf is the walk of a minute, and when the correspon dent emerged from the sha e of the tall pine trees he left like one awaking from a reverie—a dream of the past. It Wav a Special Providence. He was a great believer in special providence. To exemplify it he told the following chariiKiig little anecdote. Said he, “Boss, oue night 1 was gwine back from cliu’oh feelin’ mighty low- spirited and down-hearted like. I had no money, was powerful hungry, an’ 1 didn’t rally know whar I was goin* to get a breakftis’from. 1 knowd tlie ehil- len an’ de ole oomau was most inizzi- bly hungry, too, an’ I tell you I was a feelin’ mighty bad.

Mozart had a weak will, aud would often have Resisted from Ills endeavors but foe his wife, of whom else we would have known little, whose steady purpose aud cheerful courage balanced ills thought aud concentrated his will. How often it is true that woman is the victor where mau wears the laurel! We .sometimes hear it said that she Is unrecognized, .unrewarded. Who dares say this? Where is there a man, that deserves the name of a mau, who does not acknowledge woman’s Infiu ence? It L- assumed. Every woman wh i is bleared with wifehood and motherhiHid is honored with the two dearest names iu the language—wife, mother. Man has success only as he wins it. and how few.do that! How small a pr«>|»ortiou of men win any success lor u Iticli they are recognized! How many, men acquire wealth, a bus iness reputation, social, political or religious distinction? Unless a man does, he is considered by the rules of society to have failed. His only hopes of success, iu tiie eyes of his associates, is in wiuuing some definite superiority. Not so with woman. She is a suc cess, unless she does something to for feit her womanhood. When a man is “toasted,” it is for his attainments or position. Who ever heard asentiment offered to man ?

P*.Ever ett, 75 years old, left his home at Dr. Sloan’s six miles west of this place, on last Tuesday, saying he would go to a neighbor’s house and perhaps would not return until the next day. As he did not return by Friday the family be gan to get uneasy and preparations were being made to institute search, when a letter was found in his room saying that If he did not return in 48 works.

Add to this the irregularities Of the marital rela tions of George Eflbt, and it is scarce ly strange that any one should imagine that a literary genius is a hard person to live with. This difficulty may lie due to several causes. The genius i- generally busy I# supposed not to have much leis- % his family. The exha us ire Of. hi- work sebf his jarring, making him peevish table, lie is praised and flattered by the public uatil he feels tne ties of do mestic life to be irksome and its duties drudgery. But the experience of distinguished literary men of tais side of the Atlan tic dire, tly contradict* this idea that genius and domesticity are incompati ble. So far from being unhappy, the marriages of Amerieaii literaly men have been ideally hanpy. Feuimore Cooper was blessed with a most noble and sympathetic wife, to whom he owed uo inconsiderable degree of his literary success. Tlie recently pub lished journals and biograph}’ of Hawthorne, shows(tiiat the union of himself and wile was a case of love at first sight, tiie perfect unity and sym pathy of which lasted until death parted them, aud made their house a palace, as she herself railed it in a letter to Longfellow, when re ferring to her iiusbaud’s death, she s-oke of it as “no longer a palace, since the king has left it.” Longfel low’s own home was another sanctua- Everett was an infidel and in bis letter he slated that he was going to death calmly; that if there was a place of tor ment he had no fears of it.

Indeed, one cannot run over tlie list of American literary men without finding tliere tender fathers and affec tionate husbands. Emerson, Holmes, Motley, Howells, Lowell. Warner, Mark Twain, Simms stand for all that is fine, pure aud-peaceful iu the do mestic relations. The reason for this difference be tween the distinguished literary men of the two countries is not easy to conjecture. It.is all the less so, be cause it ranuot be attributed as so uinuy other differences are to the cli mates of the two countries. The mo^st and heavier climate o*f Great Britain is supposed to be soothing and placating in its inihieuce; while the harsh dry climate of the United States has tbe discredit of rasping the nerves and pul ing the whole sysrem to a strained and tretiieudoiis tension. • . Perhaps this difference in the lives of literary men is merely accidental. Perhaps it is due to the more pro nounced American habit of deference to women ami a more lib rnl acknow ledgment of ilnur individual liberty in judgment -and conduct. American wives are more coequal members of the marritttuiihl partnership. The man is less Hie head of tlie household, the woman allowed to order her own life and her ehildren’s lives more free’ ly than is |wrmiued to the English wife. However that may 1**, the happy do mestic exiH-rienceof American literary men disproves the uotiou that a genius is hard to live with quite as emphati cally as the uuhappiiiess of guished Englishmen seems to prove it.

A Preacher Who Hat a Good Sup ply off independence. Chattanooga, . Tenn., April 11.— [Special.]—Rev. Jv T. Christian, pas tor of the First Baptist church, ten dered his resignation to-day under very peculiar circumstances. He'de livered a sermon on prosecution, in w’hlch he made some very strong allu sions to the shafts that had l>een hurled at him, and at the conclusion'of the discourse, asked all except members of the church to withdraw, and then pre sented a very preemptory resignation. Efforts w'ere made to persuade him from his purpose, bnt he is firm. His action is the result of a church meet ing last Wednesday. A resolution was introduced at the time to retain him for another year, the fourth of his pas torate, and when it was offered there w’ere three votes in the negative. This developed the fact that there was cap tious opposition to him in a small clique in tbe church, and he then de termined to resign. He is one of tbe best known and most estimable minis ter in this city. Damage by tbe Flootlw. Atlanta Constitution. Colonel John R. Towers says: “You cannot conceive of the damage done by tbe w’ater in the flooded towns. When the water receded from a store it left a sediment of mud a foot or so deep on the floor. Into this the current would deposit the goods from the counters and. shelves, literally ruining them. Safes were invaded by the water and books and money ruined. Furniture fell to pieces, the glue dissolving iu the water, or the joint swelling and burst ing. Libraries became pulp. Eight room houses were lilted bodily aud stranded ipiles away. 1 saw one firm empty two hundred sacks of damaged coffee in the street. _A merchant sur veying a hundred and fifty stores that had been flooded said it'would have been better had the whole street been burned. Tbe Insurance would have started things over. Tbe loss by water is a dead loss.” “Chattanooga suffered by the flood,” said a bystander, “more than all the other cities combined. She has been wise enough to lay low. For eight days she was without, mail or train** Eight hundred houses were under water. Ten thousand people were homeless. The. entire fifth ward, the lanufacturing district, was submerg- 3. Three thousand workmen were idle. Bittiness was absolutely sus pended. Tbe situation* was appalling In spite of all this, the people are * cky and cheerful, refuse aid from sidere, and declare that they will take care of themselves. The damage will be very large, but Chattanooga will poll through without a bobble.” “A navigable river,” said a reflect ive Atlantian, “is a good thing to have around, as long as it lets you navigate it; but when it takes a notion to navi gate you, the hill country acquires sudden charms.” H« Wound it by ze Toil. Virginia Enterprise. A day or two since Mr. Shaw, of the Consolidated Virginia miiie, found a watch lying in the snow, where it had evidently been dropped by some one working in or about the mine. Mr. Shaw’ wrote a notice to this effect, posting it by the side of the window to which the men came to give their names when going ou or coming off the mines. A little F enchman soon came to Mr. Shaw’ and asked: You find one vatch, Mist&ire Shaw?” “Yes, sir,” said Mr. Shaw. “Have you lost a watch ?” “Yes, saire.” “Can you describe it?” “Oh, yes, saire; ver* perfectly.” “Well, what is it like?” “My vateh he vas a silver vatch.” “Very good. What kind of a face.” “Veil, ne had he’s face vide open.” “What kind of a chain?” “One leedle brass chain.” “What kind ot a key was on the chain ?.” ne have do key at all.

In the Washington correspondence of tbe Augusta Chronicle we find this sketch by James R. Randall: Judge Boteler tells me that, some time ago, proprietors of the Century magazine sent three special messenger’* to him, soliciting an article on John Brown, the Kansas ontlawand Repul>- lican divinity. The Judge complied. One-third of the most pungent pas sages were omitted in publication. The Judge had had possession of Brown’s private papers. He says that Mr. Greeley inspired that raid upon Vir- inia by bis writings in tiie Tribune. irown’s scrap-book was filled with iu- erndiary clippings from that journal. Among Brown’s secret memoranda lie had a paper containing a list of people headed “Reliable and Unreliable.” Among the latter were. Frederick Douglass and bis son. This speaks well for their sense or discretion. Another paper bad mapped out,down the moun tain slope, from Harper’s Ferry to New Orleans, two black lines of Insurrec tion and massacre. But for bis rapture at the former place, Brown would have done infinite mischief. The J utlge evi dently considers him more of a demon than a madman. Judge Boteler has a remarkable aptitudefor sketching like nesses. One day he met upon the train a most extraordinary personage, rough, uncouth, old, grim and crankislu He immediatelyjsketched this strange indi vidual %n<T gave the drawing to his wife. This was about two weeks before-John Brown’s raid. When the hoary villain was put upon trial the Judge went to tlie Court House and sketched him at the bar. Cpinparing the two pictures it was discovered that stranger on the cars and tiie baffled In surrectionist were one and the same person. Judge Boteler says be resem bled the caricatures of the Wandering Jew. Con>idering the evil that’John Brown meditated and tbe ruin, horrors and worse than bloodshed planned, it is charitable to suppose that he was in- sam*—a monomaniac on the subject of slavery. Hell would not have beeu too l»ot for him had he succeeded in his designs, and so I sometimes prefer to regard him as a lunatic. Perhaps, had. Governor Wise concluded to treat him as such, and handed him back to bis Northern allies, history might have been written differently. As it is some of our dear Northern brethren.
