to escape seven and cost, but most got
that amount as their portion. The string
is so long, and so many have asked to
“leave my name out," that we givea treat
and leave all out. There were a number
of them, and if Christmas continues as It
has begun, the city will be enriched suffi
ciently to keep the lower bridge regularly
lit up.

As there are to many men wanting office
these days, we doubt not but that Gov.
Colquitt will have the greatest number of
applications for all the places within hit
gift; especially will many apply to be one
of his Secretaries or Clerks.
But there is ono position that wo hope
the Governor will make no change In—
and that Is the position of Financial Sec
retary. Col. Bulow Campbell, formerly of
this ptaco, now holds It. He Is one of the
most courteous, polite, kind and obliging
gentlemen we ever know; and holding the
position under Gov. Brown, be was u uni
versal favorite with every ono who had
any moneyed transactions with the State.
Governor Smith, upon going into office,
having appointed Colonel Campbell to his
old position, we doubt not but that ho has
given the samo satlnfoctlon that ho gave
while with Gav. Brown. Ills experience
in the position lie now occupies,
with his lino sonso and good judg
ment, oortalnly makes him not only the
readiest, but perhaps the safest (or least
liable to oommit errors) of auy naan in the
State—at least such Is our opinion. So
viewing tho matter—and In common with
all of our citizens, feeling a warm attach
ment for him and desiring to have him re
tained where he has heretofore acted his
part so well. As Gov. Colquitt will make
hie appointment within a couple of week*,
we have concluded at tills time to give ex
pression to our views and feelings In the
matter. -MiUedgcville Recorder.

A Hovel Case.
For the last two or three days Columbus
has enjoyed a sensation In the shape of a
dead husband come to light. It appears
that a year ago a young man married
just across the river, and shortly after
wards left. His wife thought him dead,
and after awhile sho married again. All
passed on serenely, and the newly mar
ried couple never dreamed that husband
No. 1 would turn up to mar their happi
ness.
During this-week he arrived, and made
direct to the home of his wife. He de
manded to be recognized, but she declar
ed that she preferred her second mar
riage, and declined to be separated. Tho
second husband asserted hie rights, and
made No. 1 leave.
No. 1 then repaired to a magistrate and
took out a warrant for No. 2 for bigamy.
Yesterday the case came on to be heard,
but before the trial began No. 1 agreed to
relinquish all claims upon the lady and
dismiss the warrant against No. 2, If he
would pay lawyers' fees and court costs.
This was done and the warrant dismissed.
Later In the day the two met, and, some
words ensuing. No. 2 gavo No. 1 a sound
thrashing and ordered him to leave.
The nl>ove facts would constitute a good
novel. They differ from Enoch Arden,
for Arden never took out a warrant or
made any disturbance, thereby gaining
the sympathy of tiie public.

“The Herman."
“The German” last night given by the
German club, was another of those de
lightful occasions so often given this sea
son by this club. Many of the most beau
tiful of all of Columbus' rudiant maidens
were present, and personified Grace her
self, as they glided to tho gentle streams
of the Italian band, the very embodiment
of poetry and love.
The dance last night, was said by a
young gentleman who escorted an up
town belle, to be the grandest of all past
successes. Those who hod the privilege
of a dance with her echoed his heartfelt
sympathies. A delightful evening was
spent and recompensed many for the dull
holidays.

From the ililtimur* Olivette.)
Winter lias come in good enilc-ht. and
there Isg mm! promise of a "white Christ*
tons'” Snow covers the ground and tho
leaf-stripped trees stand In their winter
nakedness tike grim and spectral sentries,
fiut what matters if, that nature has put
onhorehlll, forbidding look, or (list the
cutting winds go rushing through
the streets? Cosy, cheerful] homes,
whero plenty is, shut out the winter’s
dreariness; stout, warm wrappers turn
the edge of the keenest blast, and bid defi
ance to the storm. The coming winter
means the opening of “the seuson,” when
amusements abound—balls, parties,; so
ciables, operas, skating, sleighing and the
like. There are houses which are never
so bright, and there is a life which Is
never so gay as when the grass lies
under tho snow and the winter storm
king rides up and down; arid there are
homes always cheerless, always com
fortless, which are never so dreary and
never so desolate as when the driving
blasts have chased the summer .zephyrs
off, and the sun no‘longer shines wit h
comforting fire. There are hearts that
aro merry and glad when winter conics;
and thero are,'hearts that know their
heaviest woe in winter weal her. Sho who,
with her jeweled linger, follows the frost
lines on the window pane, paints only
pretty fancies that glow with life and col
or; but the widow who, with weary hands
and wearier heart, looks up from her ill
paid task at the frosty fresco, sties thore
the dread reality of winter’s Want. Here
Is the light and shade of life, not evenly
distributed. Why It is so, we may not
ask; It should bo enough for us to know
that there are homes where want Is, and
that there are deserving ones who have
no homes. It will not bo hard for us
to find them. Now, when tho gladdest
festival of the year is nearing, when we
are looking for some pretty toy to make
a young heart happy—when we are to
give and receive gifts, for sweet charity’s
sake let us remember thoso who suffer.
We need not give all our surplus to the
poor; if it be but a little It will do good
work and bless us in the giving. It will
not bo difficult to save something from
each present we aro going to give, and
something from our Christmas table, to
bestow upon the poor. Let us build com
fortable (Ires and spread wholesome meals
in the homes where the fire has gone out
andthe oubboard is bare, that the incense
of kindly deeds may go up to Heaven as
our Christmas praise and thank-offering.
