Thus the State nets $'24,000 from the

Bid Amounts not Worth a
nental.”— Enquier-Sun ; A gentleman
was selecting from a batch of Confeder¬
ate notes and bonds, specimens to de,
posit in the cot ncr-stotlb df the Columbus
Confederate tfionunienf. In the pile was
found Georgia and Alabama War money.
The whole represented a half million of
currency on paper, and as relies the whole
value consists. One specimen is a dr ift
brawn by the Register of the Treasury,

itary at Columbus, ior $1,293,239. Hon
tved, of course. The Confederacy dwelt

A Strong Argument in Behalf of a
County CoLrt.—T imes and Planter ;
Within thepn§t year forty t! ree Criminal
cusas were disjmsed of in Hancock Coun¬
ty Cdtfrt. It is the Dpi trio n oi the Solicit¬
or General that these prisoners would
have averagbd two mouths each in j til,
at a cost of about $20 per month, (jail
fees, doctor’s fees, clothing, and every¬
thing,) making a saving in this oitc item
of $1,720.00. The Superior Court could
hardly have disposed of these at font
cases per day ; so that at Past one ad¬
journed term would have been necessary,
and this would have cost the couuty from
$800 to $1,000 more. This is leaving oUt
of the account the numerous civil cases
that Would have gone to occupy the time
of the Superior Court.
TIIE WIFE.
If you Wish to be happy and have
peace in the family, never reprove your
husband iu company—even if that re¬
proof be ever so slight. If he be i rrilalod
speak not an angry word. Indifference
sometimes will produce unhappy conse
quences. Always feel an interest in
what your husbarid undertakes, and if he
is perplexed or discouraged, assist him
by your smiles add pleasant words. If
the wife is careful how she conducts, and
speaks aud looks, a thousand happy
heSrth* would cheer and WJghten our
existence; where now there is nothing
but clouds of gloom, sorrow, and discon*
tent The Wife; above all others, should
Sludvto please her lmsbmd and make
Pome attractive.

New Jersey passed a gradual act in 1802,

ESSAY ON THE ELEPHANT.
The elephant is the biggest animal
that walks, lie’s as big as a whole
k
barn yard lud of cows all rolled into on p,
lie has fore legs in front, and two hind
legs, which lily ilhcle John says makes
rik legs, bat the elephant that 1 saw at
the circus hadn’t as many, and I guess he
lost some of then! foolin’ around a mow
i/ig machine. IIis legs looks like saw
logs standin’ on end, and his feet are as
big as wash-tubs. lie has two tails, one
at the front end of him, and one at the
idl'd ond. The front-end tail is called a
trunk, but I don't know what they call
it that for; It don’t look any more like
a trunk tHau like a crirpet-bag. The
hind-end tail is a little thing, not much
bigger tliari a dog’s tail. I think both
tail was one in the first place, dad that
it stuck way out behind big etidugh for
suah a big animal ; and then I s’pos? it
was hit by a pile-driver or something,
and drove chan through so that the butt
stuck out in front. That’s why they call
the front part the trunk, 'cause the trunk
is next to the root—anyhow that’s so
with the trees The elephant has two ears
bring on the side of his head. They look
like barn doors. They are very useful
tor to keep the flies ofl in summer time,
‘cause his tail is loo short for flies- I guess
lie uses them for blankets lo keep him
warm when the wen* her is cold. The ele¬
phant has d wonderful memory. My tins
cle John says there was ri rrian once that
cave an elephant tobacco in a circus.
Next year the show came to that town
again, with the same elephant, and the
than went to the show again and the ele¬
phant nearly killed him, lie recognized
the n1an, nly uiicle John says, though the
man had been married more than six
months. And that’s aU I know about
the elephants.
Married life.
Wo commend to those wlio meditate
crossirg the Rubicon of single bledsed
nes and traveling bri life ri long journey
together, the very beatuful and apposite
.advice of Fredereka Bremer. Tiiere is
a world of wisdom aud good sense in
what she says. Listen ;
Deceive not one another in small
things nor in great. One little single lie
lias, before now, disturbed a whole mar¬
ried life. A small cause has often great
donsequences. Fold not the arind to¬
gether and sit idle. “Laziness is the
devil’s cushion.” Do not rrin ranch from
home. One’s own health is of more
worth than gold.
Many a marriage my friends, begins
I ke the rosy morning, and then falls
away like a snow-wreath. And why, my
friends ? Because the married pair neg
lect t0 be as wel1 pleasing *o each other
after marriage ai before. Endeavor
wa, j, my ctnldreu, to please dda another
but at the santo time keep Goti iu ycur
thoughts. Lavish not all your love on
to day, (or remember that marriage “ baa
its to morrow, too. “Spare, as one may
say, fuel for the winter.”
Consider, my daughters, what the word
wife expresses. The married woman is
her husbands domestic faith, and in her
hand . u be mail be , able to couBde house
and family; be able to entrust to her, the
key of his heart as well as the key of bis
eating-room. His honor and bis home
are under her keeping, his well-being is
in her hand. Think of this J
And you, sons, be faithful husbands,
and good fathers of families. Act so
hat your wives shall esteem and love
