She sprang forward and, bending over him said: “Oh. “Oil. you you dear dear lieu- lieu t cnan t, let me kiss you ioryour moth - e ,.o' AY hat w as her surprise when the awakened ‘corpse’ardently clasp ed her in his arms, returned the sal utc, and then exclaimed: “Never mind the old lady, miss; go it on I 5 ° n !’ ‘’" n account. 1 haven’t the slightest objection, .. on ,, the contrary, , j should like it confederacy.” repeated by every pret ty girl in the Oh, who wouldn’t be a soldier? ■ Emma Reynolds’ mother rushed . into a residence at Atlanta Friday j and prevented Rev Mr. Flood from marrying the girl to M. N. Blair, The ceremony was half completed when interrupted. The mother ob j.'Cted to tiic marriage on account of the youth of the high contracting parties and also for other reasons. Mr. Tilden’s fortune is stated to be about $10,000,000, and there is a great deal of curiosity to know what disposition he lias made of it. It is expected that the will of the deceased statesman will not be read before Monday next. His estate on the Hudson is one ot the ’finest of | tlie many fine estates along that magnificent river, and his New York house is a very valuable one, and is tilled with fine furniture and many valuable works of art. “Talk!” exclaimed the barber, in an injured tone, “talk! of course I do; but I don’t injure anybody. I am sure 1 never say anything.” A boy says that when he eats wa¬ termelons his mouth feels as if it i were in swimming.

B. B. Nisbet. ol’Eatonton; Hon. Henry Persons, of Talbotton; lion. W. R. Rankir, of Calhoun. Nearly three-fourths of all the imit ition butter made in this coun¬ try hails from Chicago, where last year about 25,000 0 10 pounds were made. The bulterine men of the city say the only effect of the oleo margarine tax bill be to close out tlu» smaller houses and leave the business in the hands of the large manufacturers. In other words, the government tax is an incentive and aid to monopoly. Most Excellent J. J Atkins, Chief of Police, Knox vilie, Tenn., writes: “My family and 1 are beneficiaries of your most ex¬ cellent medicine, Dr. King's New Discovery for eousumjtion; having found it to be all that you claine for it, desire to testify to its virtue.

A very poor man who had a horse tied him in the stable with his head towards that part where it is usual to place the tail. He then proclaim¬ ed aloud. “Oh! you people! come and see a strange sight—a horse with his head where his tail ought to be!” All the people of the city crowded to see the strange sight; and from every one who wished to go into the stable to see the show he exac te( \ a small piece of money and gave them admittance. They who went into the stable came out and said nothing, for none wished to confess that they had been taken in a cun¬ ning trick. An Old Citizen Speaks. Mr. J. M. Norris, an old resident of Rome.
