Ex Congressman Taulbce,
who Wit? ."hot by Corres
pondent Kincaid in W.tsliing
ton a lew days ago, is ticjul.
Hon. Carter lain of Pickens,
is attending c( .rt. Mr. Tate’s
name is urn;.cued with tlie
muty others a- ;i vaiulkbite lor
congress in this district.
The waters of the Ohio and
Mississippi nvt rs have been
bursting from their banks the
past week or ten days. Iheov
erllow has been great—doing
damage To live stock, crops,
etc.
The family ol Pres. Harrison
are visiting the youth. They
were expected to arrive in At
lanta this week. Benjamin,
we suppose, says he isn't com
ing. Well, he might as well,
we doubt as to a hair in his
head being touched.
Treasurer Hemingway, Mis
sisippi’s treasurer for the past
fifteen years, in turning over
the state’s money to his sue
cessor, is found short in his ac
counts by several hundred thou
sand dollars. Mr. Homing
way can give no accounn for
his shortage. The legislature
is investigating the shortage.
What will be the result is not
known.
Craig of the Jackson Herald,
and liantt of the Athens Ban
ner, have get into editorial is
sues on the stand of the North
and South. The base of the is
sues springs from the speeches
of Henry Crady during his life.
The Herald contends that Gra
day never could have united
the North and South, nor eras
ed the bitter feeling and sec
tional animosity. This, we be
lieve to be so. Yet, we do not
want to be understood as striv
ing to take one jot from the
honored and lamented Grady.
The Banner differs. It be
lieves Mr. Grady would have
united tiio North and South
and erased the bitter feeling
between the two sections.
louring Toombs, ni!!, Steph
ens, and others day, they nev
er undertook to battle and
unite such an issue. The re
sponsibility of such a task and
the failure attached would have
been too great for them.
But, t lie Banner, even, is forc
ed to retrace from such an is
sue through the appointment
of a negro postmaster being
thrust upon it.
In conclusion, whenever the
North and the South is united,
then will 1 lie sun rise in the
West and set in the East.

of corn in the bottom of the
cart. The boy, in his peculiar
garment, climbed in and sat on
the bags, lie was going to a
new and far off country and ev
ery sight was a woi der. fir
riving at the mill, he watched
with curious interest the coin
making its way from the hop
per into the heart of the stone
and then spurt out in warm
while jets into the trough. Be
went, outside and saw the wa
ter pour over and turn the huge
overshot wheel, and peered
with a sensation of fear into
I the dark, mossy cavern into
! which the wheel was forever
retreating.
‘•On rising at a little dis
tance he spied a log cabin and
shortly wandered over through
the brush in its direction. A
rail fence stopped his progress
a couple of rods from the door
way, and he leaned over and
looked. There, sitting outsi la
of the door on a bench were
iwo girls. One was spinning
wool and the other knitting.
1 hey were the most beautiful
things he had ever seen and he
nearly died rigid there. They
saw him and burst out laugh
ing at his remarkable appear
ance. He didn’t know what to
do, but thought it was probab
ly the proper thing to stare at
: them and laugh back, which
;he did with interest, j his tnu
! tual entertainment kept up fur
some ten minutes, when one
of the grls laughed.so hard she
; rolled off the bench, lie thought
1 that was queer, but just then he
| felt something cold on his legs,
j “He turned around As iie
did so Loth girls shrieked with
laughter, and ran into the
house. He found that the cold
; thing on his legs was the muz
zle of a bull calf that wascl.ew
ing away vigorously on what
was left of the rear ol his dress,
which had been shockingly mu
tilated by the animal during
the tew minutes he was stal
ing at the girls.
“He has seen more girls
since and bears their smiles
with greater equanimity. He
is also one of the best dressed
men in Washington, but that
experience with the bull calf
■ui the girls will never be effac
1 from his memory.”—[Wash
