To be thoroughly miserable a man must be a millionaire. Ordinary mor tals have their troubles, but they are few and trifling by the side of those which afflict the millionaire.—Atlanta Constitution. Brooms that are dipped in boiling soap suds cnee a week will become very tough, last longer, and sweep ‘as good as new,” “new* brooms” be ing proverbially good. For the pleasure and enjoyment, and consequently the amelioration of the unfortunate condition of the in mates of the Asylum, the authorities have most wisely seen fit, besides other wholesome recreations each week, to prepare two extraordinarily attractive pleasures, one during the Christmas holidays, and the other, an' annual picnic during the month of May. To those of the patients, not too seriously deranged to enjoy the week ly recreations provided for them, these two special occasions serve as very valuable adjuncts in the treat ment of their mental disorders; for they furnish themes for thought and pleasing anticipations for weeks ahead, and, for days in advance, pleasant occupation* for minds and hands in preparing the usual decora tions for the buildings and grounds. Though these special entertain ments are intended primarily for the patients, the relatives, friends and acquaintances of officers and patients are invited, and add much to the en joyment of the occasion. Thursday, the 13th, was this year’s anxiously expected era. At an early hour visitors began to arrive; little boys and girls, in the hey day and in nocence of youth, dressed in holiday attire, young maidens and their “gal lant swains,” old men, with their wives and children came in, till by eleven o’clock, the spacious parlors and well kept grounds of the institu tion were alive with the spirit of the occasion. The long halls and corri dors of the building rang with the merry peals of laughter of the boys and girls mingled with songs, accom panied with the pianos, and the en joyment seemed as complete as possi ble, when the cheerful, kind and geni al voice of Dr. AVhitaker was heard above the 'merry din, inviting all out to the picnic grounds. Following the quick and happy step of Dr. Whitaker, the crowd was led to a large folding door, over which, in beautiful letters, tastily wrought in arborvitie and ivy leaves, was the cheering and appropriate greeting, the one expressive word, “Welcome”. This door opened into a long corridor, delightfully fragrant with the profuse floral decorations, in exquisite taste. Over the exit, at the far end of this corridor—leading out into the picnic grove—was another appropriate motto, richly worked in box leaves “May Day Greeting”. Passing out here, the piGnic ground was reached. It is a beautiful grove of native oaks, enclosed within a wall, for the double purpose of preventing intrusion and securing the safety of the patients. In the centre is a handsome substantial pavilion, erected and kept expressly for these occasions, of suffi cient size to accommodate several setts of quadrilles at once, with seats around the sides, and a stand for the musicians. On entering, the pavillion was seen already nearly filled, and hundreds of others (mostly patients) seated on benches, or roaming at will under the grateful shades. To the right were arranged, under the oaks, a number of long tables, with plates for several hundred, and near it, an enclosure, in which a num ber of attendants were engaged in converting boxes upon boxes of lem ons, and sacks upon sacks of snowy sugar into barrels upon barrels of ice lemonade, and dispensing to those, who, if they did not really “thirst for the water of life,” certainly did thirst for ice water. Upon an average this grove must have contained not less than five hundred souls, of all ages and both sexes, all enjoying to the ut most, the pleasures so lavishly pre pared for them. From the pavillion, came the notes of the violin and jingle of tambourine, that made young toes jingle, and soon, the well known voice, of Joe Hum phries, calling “Take partners,” suc ceeded soon by another call to “bal ance all,” and that sound of shuffling feet, so inspiring to youthful hearts, announced that the dancing had be gun. This was kept up, amid lively hearts and peals of merry laughter, by the devotees of Terpsichore entirely oblivious of their surroundings, which ones, more competent to “see sharp,” observed the process of loading these long tables with bread, cake, pickles, lemonade, pies ’n things (no pun) including a liberal supply of the tra ditional barbecue, till a feast was ready capable of satisfying even a larger assemblage. At length even those who had appear ed, till now, to feed only on estherical sentiment, were compelled to descend to the more substantial emotions of this mundane sphere for “Man is a car nivorous production'’ and must have meals, at least one meal a day; he can not live, like woodcocks, upon suc tions. but like the shark arid tiger, must have prey, although his anatom ical construction bears vegetables in a grumbling way, many good people think, beyond all question, pork and mutton, barbecured, better for diges tion,” and so at about three o'clock, dinner being ready, dancing ceased and the inner man was regaled. After an hour spent thus, the crowd began to disappear, some for their homes while the younger people returned to the parlors to await the crowning pleasures of the occasion, the May dance at night in the regular dance hall. It is one of the finest dance halls in the State, (perhaps the largest,) well ventilated and lighted, with an exceptionally good floor, of sufficient dimensions to accomodate a dozen setts of quadrilles at once, with a niche for musicians, so set back, as to leaye the hall floor unbroken by any projection. At 7.30 p. m. the hall was opened and soon filled, with, not only many of the convalescent patients, but visi tors also from other places. The as semblage presented an array of wit and beauty, of “fair women and brave men,” rarely excelled, Milledgeville, Scottsboro, Macon, Augusta, Sparta, Gordon and other places being repre sented—with quite a number of the young “sojer boy” cadets in their glit tering uniforms, making them so be coming in the eyes of the little misses present.. Over the entrance to this hall was, ^ evergreen letters, the greeting Welcome Merry May.”' The chan deliers were tastily decorated with May flowers, that loaded the atmos phere with their rich perfume, and up on the broad white wall of the rear en d m a segment of a circle was the name “Terpsichore,” the Goddess of the dance, and within its curve, the date “May 13th, 1886” altogether giv- mg the hall an inviting, cheerful ap pearance. Galops, waltzes, polkas and quadrilles, were kept up, with gay and happy hearts till eleven o’clock, when the entertainment was closed, the authorities observing moderation, rather than that rollicking spirit that prompts most pleasure seekers. °f “we wont go home till morning.” To “a looker on in Venice'’—one past the meridian of life, yet in whom though “the spirit is willing, the flesh is weak,’ one who not forgetting how* he himself enjoyed such pastimes at that age, it was indeed a delightful pleasure to observe the perfect sea of heads (12 setts) rising and falling with graceful movements, to the' music in “the mazes of the giddy dance,'’ and to watch the graceful, fairy-like forms °f the fair creatures, as they floated so lightly through the waltz or galop, almost as if borne on fairv w*ings, so lightly did they touch the floor with only their toe-tips. Want of space and the invidious ness of comparison will not allow* the mention of even initials of these fair w'omen and the younger Misses equal ly captivating in the naivete and in nocence |of their youth, nor of the handsome men who with manly grace and easy dancing, added so much to the pleasure of the memorable occar sion. Justice to Milledgeville, howev er, compels the acknowdedgement, that no representative excelled hers, in either the grace and loveliness of her fair daughters, or the true manli ness of her men. The State is to be congratulated up on the perfect regime of the institu tion. Indeed no more able, agreeable and in every way suitable officers could be found from the kind, genial. Christian superintendent, to the low est of the officers. To the firm, yet gentle and dignified matron, Mrs. Darnell, sufficient com mendation cannot be given. To her managing head and kind heart, assis ted by the nimble fingers cf those patients, so devoted to her that it is ever their pleasure to do her behests, is largely due the success of the en tertainment and mainly the beau ty and taste of the May day flo ral decorations. It has been the pleasure of the writer to observe her passing through the wards, and it is indeed touching to see the female pa tients flock to her, as loving children ground a devoted mother, and see her clasp them affectionately in her arms addressing them tenderly as “my child’’ always with some comforting w'ords to each. No wonder they all love her. * But admiration and a desire for on ly just commendation are running away with the pen and this coimnuni- cation must close with the assertion that one of the most pleasing memo ries in the hearts of those w*lio attend ed will be the recollection of the “Annual May picnic of May 13th, 1S86.” * “C Sharp.*’ Milledgeville, April 14th, 1886. The Man on TI10 Bell Tower. AUTOBIOGRAPHY. If you would like to know who I am and what I am here for just lend me your ear and I’ll divulge. To begin, I am a thin tin weather- indicating fireman—not too thin however. In the language of slangue, if you ever get mashed on me, please re spectfully bend the knee and Idolize me, allee samee heathen chinee, for I am standing and expect to stand on this pagoda, wind and weather per mitting. Although not put here with that ob ject in view, I am the butt of venera ble jokes, rheumatic puns, bilious hu mor and horse laughter. For all this my hand is not pointing the finger of scorn at you, although j w*oukl feel at liberty to assume such an attitude, conscious of all tlje abu sive criticism going on around me. Being too thin to have a mouth suitable for noise, my voice is hushed in silence. Providence has come to my rescue by placing a bell with a seven hundred pound mouth and clap per accordingly, at my feet, which, in good health, will be able to aw*akethe dead in yonder cemetery, if need be. Don’t circulate a petition to have anything done to me, in case I am not exactly according to your notion, for although perhaps not complete, I am finished. Within me is a feeling of pride at being unrivalled in my not native but naturalized city in exalted position and loftiness of purpose. While I am, as I have just said, proud, I am not vain. I am w eather vane, however. In my hand I hold a fearful horn, which I seized and forcibly took from an Atlanta man, w hen I came through there. He was blowing a Gordon boom with it. That is one reason why I took it away from him. If the At lanta cornuoopiaist had carefully ex amined it he would have found out that by mistake he had got hold of a regular Bacon fog-horn—a genuine ram producer—an instrument that I may lend to Gabriel some day, and un til then, I intend to toot hog and hom iny notes through it—Bacon music. I did not start out with the idea of puddling in politics when I inaugifra- ted this soliloquy, but like many a fool not loaded enough or else too heavily charged, • I have spoken and find myself at least knee deep in poli tics, as above, and hence I now de cide that as ia all other circumstances when a man has got into a thing that don’t fit him, the next best thing he can do is to get out. So I now turn my back on politics and my face to tlie clear blue sky. Because I do not remain in one po sition long don’t call me fickle. That is due to circumstances over which I have no control. The hat on my head was put there in accordance with the eternal fitness of things, and with the further object of reminding the Vigilant fire compa ny that the new hats, caps and other paraphernalia lately given them by the city fossils (no, fathers, I mean) are intended to be used, not abused— to be worn on parades and other fire man’s duty and are not meant to adorn the picaninies’ occiput. I am now about done. P. S. and Sub Rosa :— The above was written while I stood in my glory braced against illimita ble space and leaning on nothing and nobody. For some reason, perhaps because I leaned against nothing— being a prohibitionist—I had a sud den transportation like feeling—and in a moment’s time I experienced a sensation as if something unexpected and aw ful had happened. Upon care ful examination I found myself where I thought the foot of my pagoda be longed—that is, on the ground. It is unnecessary for me to go into any long explanation how this happened. Anyone curious to know that can find out by doing as -I have done. I am now in the shop for repairs. This is not the first time a man has been doivned by wind.

Cure for Piles- Piles are frequently preceded by a sense of weight in the back, loins and lower part of the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose he has some affect ion of the kidneys or neighbor ing organs. At times* symptoms of indigestion are present, flatulency, uneasiness of the stomach, etc. A moisture like perspiration, producing a very disagreeable itching, after get ting warm, is a common attendant. Blind, Bleeding, and Itching Piles yield at once to the application of Dr. Bosanko’s Pile Remedy, which acts directly upon the part affected, absorbing the Tumors, allaying the intense itching, and effecting a per manent cure.

Two gentlemen stand prominently forw*ard before the people as appli cants for the position of Democratic candidate for Governor of Georgia. Both are men who have rendered the State good service and both would do the same again if elected to the office of governor. Now under such cir cumstances w’hat should w*ise people do? Simply send reliable delegates to the State Convention, and having by actual ballot learned who is the choice of the people, have him placed in nomination and on election day go to the polls and elect him. There is a great disposition mani fested on the part of the special friends of the two gentlemen alluded to, to make a bitter contest for the supremacy in the nominating conven tion. We do not think the masses of the people are so inclined. They w*ouid be satisfied with either for gov ernor; and would greatly dislike to see the peace and harmony of the party broken up merely to satisfy the personal preferences of a compara tively few.
