He is too much enclined to anay labor against capital, which should de promptly set down upon in the South. New Orleans has a ‘club on wheels,’ that has just bought an elegant bufTot car with a demijohn attachment. One of the rules is that no teetotaler need apply lor membership, A great effort will be made by the Republican patty to capture the Knights ot Labor organizations and influence. They have already begun to warn them not to trust the Democratic party. It seems inevitable that the Pana ma Canal scheme, looking at the proj ect as tavorable as possible, must drag on for a far longer period than has yet been fixed for its completion, even if over accomplished, It is calculated that one striker is more noise in tbs land than ninety men who are at work, It is evident that general trade is more hurt by ap prehension than by the actual extent and magnitude of strikes. Over 5,000- DOO laborers have continued to work against about 40,000 strike! s. Tennessee, gets $105,000 for 1300 convicts • Goorgia gets $25,000 for 1500 convicts, bosido* the incidental expenses of keepers, chaplain*, etc., to come from the $25,000, none of which is taxed on Tennessee's $105,000. Dr - Felton calls it an iniquitous sys tem in our State, and undor tlie facts, the assertion stands uncontradictory true. That people have to be duped seems an unavoidable necessity. No esti mation could be placed on the amount of spurious cake soid at the rate of a dollar a square inch in Washington as pieces ot (he President’s wedding cake. People who bought it belonged to all circles of society, aud even the svivos of State officials. The age of fools has not passed yet. ■ ..*» i ■ » • Maj. Bacon, spoke in Dawson yes terday. His speech was a masterly one, and made him many friends. Qen. Gordon spoke in Pulaski yes terday, and created much enthusiasm. The ladies in that county gave him a grand welcome—Atlanta Capitol. The above clearly presents tho char acteristic difference between Maj. Pa eon and Gen. Gordon enthusiasm. Feelings are becoming so bitter and personality, and so ficelj u*ed be tween the two present candidates for Governor and their immediate friends, that a great many are becoming dis gusted and wishing for a “dark horse." i|£uch may be possible, yet it would "moot our protest. It is not light to force a man upon the party without Jjis being placed fairly before the peo ple. We h ave no reason to change our preference for Maj. Bacon. Dr. Felton, is credited with say ing that he will not support Gordon if he gets the nomination. We do not think tho Doctor has the least in tention of inning independent if snch he the result, as is charged by litany. In this particular he is far from re reiving our endorsement. SYe be lieve the estrangpment of feeling lias become intense between many of the respective friends of each candidate, and that it will be difficult for them to rote tor tho opposing nominee, but they are not brave enough to admit it, or they wi)l be diiven to it by the party la*li. Gborcha is a great State and a won derful people. She is intent on con ieriirg the highest honors in the gilt ol tire people upon l»er Confeder ate military officials—intent upon de fying them if possible ; but the poor maimed privatuer is lost to hor grati tude. For them, her gratitude is 1 only sufficient to grant them the right to j*eddle without license. If Gen. Gordon reaches the executive chair in the present contest, be can alone at tribute it to his military service, js'ah a contrast of gratitude shown between our private soldiers and a i general, should make every citizen of State tr.’L* !c< -A r .* • i, t mo « A Scent of Mignonette. Tncae old time letter* bring a I'nee Of quiet, winsome, saddened grace. Tied by tho ribbon, faded, old, Tb-years have turned to leave? of gold. Kevotilcd within each musty jingo Is many a sayiug, quail and sage. And through the packet lingers yet An odour faint of mignoucttc. Tho ink is faded, but each line In characters wc.l rounded, fine, Still frames a graceful sentiment, Untouched by all that time has lent. Ar. I untie the dusty band, And so« tho trocos of hor band, It seems I hear tho distant attain’ Uf music in a sweet refrain. A saddened echo seems to swell, And bring with it a magic spell : Unbidden memories, thick and fast, Come quickly thronging from the past. A vision stands before me now With eyes reproachful, and n brow Of purc.it white, and light golden hair, And rosebud lips—a picture fair 1 pomure and dimpled little maid, Time has indeed rare havoc played With you and me ; those vanished days Arc stveotly sad in all thoir ways. “Eheu fugaces I" They have whirled Togethor with tho rushing world. But still their memory lingers yet, As docs this scent of mignouott. <ni» OIK CITY FATHERS They Meet, and Out of Disre gard to tho Prayers and entreaties of thoGon tlo Sex, Decide Whiskey i* a Necessity to llie Growing Populari ty ot* the tow n, anil That It Would be Great Influence In Building up and Advancing the Interests of our School Last Monday, the Commissioners ot tho town of Trenton, mot and granted the sale ot whiskey till Sept. Term of court. In justice to one, T. H, B. Cole, dissented. It is a fact without testing, that the majority of tho legal voters ot the town would be in favor of the sale ot whiskey. Rut there is a fact that merits the consideration and unquali fied respect of every man and legal voter in town. We mean the protest of the women against the existence of an admitted evil, when its existence is coutioiled by the volition of the legal voters. By the protest, we mean the petition circulated by the ftdios of the town, praying of the Commissioners iKit uo grant the license for the sale of whiskey in Trenton. It is not onr intention to detail in tho least, the evils of the saloou, nor the use of damning fire. It is simply to put the query and bring to our thoughtful con sideration, “Why it is, that the weight of woman’s influence is wcakei and her wish less respected in this cause then any other she has over yet enlisted We do not believe i.i vesting hor with civil authority, oi control of civil affairs ; but wo are as fur from acceptimg as right, the tact of eontcmtonsly disregarding her prayer and wish in tho refusal to sup press n vice by those who are vested with civil authority. Wo do not mean the representative body, but every one vested with the franchise. Nothing more clearly indicates this as being the giant evil of the day, and man’s servitude to it, Ilian such an utter disregard to woman’s prayer for its suppression. Everyone knows that the saloon is the greatest evil of the day and men are afraid of it. but none wi'l admit it. Women have nothing to lose in fighting it, tlrercfore, site is fairer and more proper judge. AnotT five years ago wcVweio a resident of AfapaTia A: there were several bar-rooms here, and often after night and sometimes far in to the night the citizens were treated to land swear jug, shouts of drunken men and firing of guns and pistols. In those days a man dreaded to have to go down town after night, not know ing the moment he might catch a stray bullet or become involved m a diffi cult y with some person under the in fluence ol whiskey. Very nearly all this rowdpisin was by people not resi dents of the town. Since that time the sale of liquor has been abolished by law, amJ tiie change lor tbe better wrought thereby, seems almost mirac ulous. Now there is no dr lnkenncss, no rowdyism of any kind, and a per son can walk through the town at anv bom of night m perfect safety. More interest is being taken in icligion, the education ot the children claims mole earnest attention and, in fact, and al most complete revolution for the better in er<r-'. -• ' '■ > - ft.,. .... Of ■iib V. V, . p-:.., SU'l CORRESFONDECE. From Ili’f*. 11. A. Slovey. Lower Salem 0., Jun. 8, ’BO. Ed, Times . —So many events trans pire to interest us of the North, some times 1 hardly know what to write for you. Since the Republicans have gained the povvor in our State again, one good law has been passed in regard to the whiskey traffic. Every wine and heei saloon is now taxed SIOO, per year, and those that sell whiskey, S2OO. This lias been the cause of a great many low, vile places shutting up. Whether it makes much difference in the amount sold and drank is yet to he seen ; but it makos a difFeienco in our taxes. If we cannot bo rid of the curse, better let it bear its share of the burden. Decoration day was observed this year with more than usual interest, perhaps because the old soldiers are falling thick and fast on every side. The liaidsips of war made old men of many who should now bo iu tho piime of life. I will give you a short sketch of how we spent May 30th and 31st. On the 30tli, tho Post and Relief Corps met in their hall and marched out in a body to the Baptist church, where a grand memorial sermon was preached by Rev, A. D. McCormick. Next morning, the military compa nies met with the Post alul a squad of eight detailed from each to visit the four cemeteries within out jurisdiction, The citizens of each wero assembled with loads of flowers, and after the funeral servic was icad, the children scattered the flowers, and the military squad fired the salute. But the most touching and impressive service of all, was the tribute to the “unknown dead.” This service was held in the afternoon in the town hall, which was crowded to the utmost capacity. The Post occupied tho rostrum which was elegantly trimmed with evergreens and flowers. Two chairs unoccupied auii draped in mourning, for the two gone forever. On the floor in front of the lost rum, was a cenotaph, nicely sod ded and trimmed with mosses and terns, on one side of which was tho inscription, “to the unknown dead." A beautiful cross and arch surmount ed this, and above all floated the American flag drapped with crepe. After a funeral march played by the Cornet Band, the iittle girls under ton years of age, marched around the cenotaph singing, “Cover them light ly oe’r” and at the close of each stan za laid a bunch of choicest flowers upon it until it was a mass of beauty and perfume. An address by tho minister, a song, and the reading of • a piece of •poetry, which I send y»u as embodying the whole sentiment of Decoration day, the exercises closed, PUR FALLEN BRAVES, Long year? have fled sineo Iho buglebl.isj Called our Nation's son.? to st'ifo ; And glancing back o’er the haptesr past, Sad thoughts aro awakened to life, And I seem to see Uu^asbing^stoel, The bayonet glilP*f*the run. Tho boys lopPgay, uiui how jiroud they fed At. firmly they shoulder each gun. Soo the stars and stripes above thorn ware, And bear the sound of tho drum ; Three cheer* reuouml, we try to look brave, For our boy. gotdiers have become. We turn again to our quiet homes, As wo silently brea'ho a prayer For those just gone,bow soon tho news comes —-\ battle fought—wore our boys tboro Z, Yes, our* and others ns true and All th.it day wore fighting, to keep The Union intact as ottr sires gave; And many sunk in their last sleep. How many stil! rest in nameless grave*, Who have long t’.inco passed away ? The Union blue ol our own doar bravos, Lies mixod with Confederate gray. Scatter flowers o'er each lowly bed, And lovingly cherish ouch mound ; Ii it. is not ours, ’ti* soico one's dead, That lies buried beneath the ground ; So mo one, perhaps, will think of our bonds, Who are sleeping so far away, And the North and South clasp hands OVr thorn on Decoration day. [Never yet have wo seen anv iliog touching upon onr "iate uit i pleasantness” that more favorably impressed us than tiro above. No one w!io has the spirit ot “peace amt good will toward all men," can read it without experiencing a fueling of joy and throbbing of the heart that is found expressed only in the sweetest and most poetic language. Notice to whose honor and memory Decoration d»y i* given ; and for whom tho sen timent and tribute in the verses is ox- pressed. It is all foi those who fought and gave their lives to save the Union. When we are brought to tiie true knowledge of the facts, we find that the “true and the brave,” who fonghl ami died in the armies of the North and South, never really understood each other and the issues that split the Union in twain, if the North ern mind could only he brought to realize that the Southern heart lias al ways heat with as warm a luvo for the Union, and as passionate a desire for its existence as has ever been found in the most loyal Noil hern hearts, it would hardly lie possible to estimate ibe extent of tbe reconcilia ronof feelings it would effect between the two great and estranged sections ; it would give ns the Union as first forme.l, and the principles upon which its perpetuation was intended to de pend —Held together by virtue of an iiitiiiisic all i act mu——a patiiotie love tor its existence, the pride of the American heart, and a deep venera tion for its framers.
