.o ami Jealousy. •V Ten Fear's Sentence to liepent an Act <M'Jealousy. “Ten years is a long time—it is too severe!” sfcid J, J. Patterson, as the tears trickled down his cheeks from two brown eves. Patterson is muter sentence of ten years foe cutting Ids wife at Grantfs park last summer. The sto ry of the man as connected with 1 his woman—his wife—is pathetic. “Whisky is a bad, bad thing,” said he, “but there is nothing on God's earth so bad as the madness of a loving man’s jealousies. My crime was not romnd: ted under the influence of strong drink. It was .jealous frenzy for the only woman J ever loved,” said he, sighing. Then dashing a tear from his cheek, ha went on: “I learned to love her when she was an innocent country girl, lrotn lie good old county of Banks. Her name was Narcissie Bell, and her parents came to Atlanta from Banks county lor the purpose of giving her the advantage of public schools. I learned to love her while she was yet a blooming school girl, living on the corner of Lurkie and Foundry streets. I loved her then, I love her now, and from the abund ance of that love I was aggravated info committing tjha rtsh act for which I am sentenced to serve ten vcars in the chain gang, it's too severe—it's too severe, 1 remarked the prisoner, between his sobs. ‘•There is-no love without jeal ousy,” he went on, ns the tears ran <’ u.yn ids '-heel's ‘-dhow me ahus band who has not jealousy for his w fe and I will show you r.n un loved woman. Show ina a woman who is five from ealousies and I will show you a lie art that is void ot love. It was all love—love in tense —that caused mo to do as I have done. If I had not loved I could not have been aggravated in is this crime. ‘T know that my walk in life was not as pure as it should have been, but with my hand on my heart, I tell you that all the blur that should stand marked against me is connected with this woman —this wile of mine.” And a heavy sigh went up. “I committed indiscretions, on a visit ot liar and myself back to Franklin county,” he went on, ‘-but I appeased the law and saved her character by a marriage that was as holy and sacred to my heart as 'is my marriage recorded in Geor gist.” And a smile with something of happiness in it played over Ins leatures. ‘‘One time, too, I got into a row and was severely cut with a knife. That was when i was nineteen. 1 suffer now from that wound, but iuy conscience is clear and the ] cople around the dear old church t.f Indian creek, where the difficult iy occurred, will bear me out that 1 was not f© blame. This is the on ly difficulty I overbad except the uiifeswith Narcissi®, and for which 'em now sentenced to the peniien t wry. 5 Then after a pause, during which j he appeared to be in thought, he’ wen', on; “The sentence is too sever®, but if I knew that its very severity would cause one pang in the wo man’s heart who lias aggravated nia to •bis, I would be content. File knew I lovad, and in tier pets drove mo to frenzy. A woman’s temper and a jealous nature is Jho cause of all this. lam sorry, tnd I ii ope she is.”—[Constitution. The above sounds very sympa thetic, but all criminals come ;o this. Patterson deserves his sen tones, ho ought to an £ must gc . lie has been living with a hide woman for years, and he knew it; and,.he ought to, and r.o doubt, did know*, that nothing short of the gates of hell closed in on a woman of this sort, will .check her iiienous Justs. The courts of the country are ready to give a separation of lids sort to either side. Patterson’s jealousy, through love, for an unvirtuous, vile and lusty woman, only con demns deeper in wrong, and all sober thinkers -with u drahm of setose can not decide '-os her wise. The Journal publishes the above best-', use the writer h vs learned that Patterson and his wife lived in this county, and their wi'd and disgrac ing freaks are well remembered. Is it a Lost Aid? From l;;e tone of tho lament sent up by the press throughout the length and breadth of the land, one would suppose that the cheap alum inum problem is, since lhe death of this one man, as r from being solved as it was in 18od, when a very poor qualify of that valuable material w rs worth s2oo per pound —on this point, however, the peo pie are being misled. I do not believe it to be the in fention of Hie press to be mislead ing in this or any other matter, however, triv/d, but what one of the numerous croakers who have helped to swell the cry. ‘-Lost, from shore to shore believes, after a moment’s sober afterthought, that an invention or process, necessary Jo the advancement of mankind could be irretrievably lost by tho death of one man? The pompeiians could cast plast er statutes whole and hollow at a single Hast; nothing ol the kind can be dme in this day and age o l ' the world. The ancients understood the pro cess of manufacturing malleable glass;cups were made in those old en times which could be dashed vi olently to the ground without a frac ture; only dents, where, perchance, they came in contact with cobble stones or other pebbles; 1 lie dents could be hammered eut just for all tho world like we would hammer dents in tinware at the present day. Malleable glass is another of the lost arts. In the year 97G A. D., the Chinese emperor, Tai Tsung, came into possession of a wonderful paint ing of an ox, which was visible only during the night— at daylight it vanished. It was a specimen of the ancient luminouspainting of which not a single example is now extant. Above I have catalogued three representatives of (hs lost at Is, arts v hick are indeed lest; but mind, dear reader, t j lost by the cleat of a single . •:&!.

With there tad t ia view it is hard ly possible, if tl£ “Aimumum Ago” h really been foreshadowed to the extent c'a me t by enthusiastic scien tists and inverftors, that the brilliant white metal era jviW forever recede from mir si pit. Because one man has iivtd his slotted days ami passed to ibe great unknown vGhcnt levoaiing bis process of cheapening a material that will make "au >.go as roach in ad vance of this of iron as 'ho iron age is in advance of the stone age or that oi prehistoric bronze, there are no reasons for considering the art lost forever. Fur tho past two or three veais many i xtrrvagant stories have been circuhit (■■J legarding this peerless metal.
