White Fawn.—Onr citizens will have an op
portunity to witness the celebrated spectacle of
the White Fawn. We clip the subjoined no
tice of it from the Macon Telegraph :
“ The wonderful, gorgeous, and truly chaste
and beautiful spectacle ot the White Fawn, as
originally represented at Nihlo’s Garden, New
York, and as now produced in the Southern
cities, under the popular management of John
Templeton, and the personal supervision of
Mr. B. F. Whitman, the well known proprietor
of this and other spectacles —will be given for
the last time to-night with all its wealth of
beauty, dazzling display and unparalleled ef
fect.
“ In addition to tlie Grand Artists and Paris
ian Ballet—the wonderful Premier Asolutas,
from the Royal Theatres, London and Venice
—M’ile Sohlke and M’lle Diani, will positively
appear. These great Terpsichorean artistes
are undoubtedly unrivalled on the American
continent, and head a corps of seconds, ballet
and solo artistes, which comprises some of the
brightest ornaments of dramatic, lyric and pan
tomimic forces. In no similar spectacle did we
ever see so modest, and yet so beautiful an ar
ray of female loveliness ; nor has it ever been
onr fortune to behold so charmed and spell
bound an audience, composed, too, of the fash
ion and beauty of our Southern society—in
fact, the secret charm of the White Fawn—
aside from its unequaled merit as a 6cenic pro
duction-lies in the fact of its perfect grace
and modesty. All its sensations are colored hy
the perfection of art, and are balanced by art
graces. It seems as if it were impossible to
imagine faults, where all that is beautiful in
Bceuic display, and all that is ehasteued in fem
inine beauty, is brought forward in all the deli,
cate coloring of a fairy dream.
■‘ln parting with the 1 Fawn,’the manage
nicut, and the Elvc-like artistes, we have bnt
one expression to offer, and that is of unquali
fied praise.
“ The ‘ Shadow Dance,’ by Sohlke ; the ‘Hun
garian Polka,' by Diana ; the immortal 1 Oan
<Jan,’ with its voluptuous beauty, as represent
ed hy all the principles; the pretty Laura
Belle ; the lairy sisters, Alice and Isabel Vane ;
Malvini, LeComple, Saurdi, and hosts of other
sprites, such as have never visited our dream
land before—these will haunt, us, and all others
who have the slightest appreciation of the true
and beautiful.”
A “ Fam” Hit. —The Southern Opinion con
tains the following:
“ Ann Maria," the correspondent who gave
us last week a piece of her strong mind, comes
at. the editor of the Enquirer this week in the
following fashion. As there is a threat attach
ed like a whip cracker to the end ot her note,
we print to avoid its sting :
Church Hill, Richmond, February 4.
Mr. Editor : I don’t know or care who you
are, but you must be u nice man, for yon print
ed my lant note. Did you see the Enquirer of
yesterday? Such impudence? The wretch
attacks us women wholesale ; calls u* wasteful,
dressy, extravagant; says we bankrupt you
men, and strut about the streets, “ in all our
tremendous finery, on eniptys tomaebs.”
Did you ever hear the beat of that! Ido
wonder ivheth r the man who wrote that piece
j, #c got a wife? Because if ho hasn’t I’d just
civo the worth of my next new skirt to be his
w if e n o 1 don't mean that —his master for
fifteen minutes. I’d make hair scarce on his
bead, you hot- Oh, yes I would, for f’m
madder now than ever.
And just. hear again what this barbarian pro
poses to do. What do you think? Why he
proposes to ship us nil onto!' the State and city,
and set. up a eonimnnUy or commonwealth ot
males. The monster—wretch ! the scallawag ?
Oh, 1 am mad now, and my face, I know it must
be crimson, for it teels hot as a griddle.
You men (I except yourself) would have a
nice time all to yourselves, now wouldn’t you !
I think I see you now, drinking whisky, and
•wallowing about in your dirty linen, with ail
your buttons shed like last year’s crop of nuts.
Yes, the very first thing you would do when
you missed us pretty much, you’d import a
whole colony of women earpet-sackers from
Yankee land, and then what would become ol
your blooded stock, your vaunted Virginia
chivalry ? 1 would just like to know that.
Tiie dry-rot take you ! Aud if you don’t
print this, because the Enquirer wretch wouldu’t
—l’ll come and see you in your sanctum and
know the reason why. Yours, mad as a wet
helli Ass Mari*.
A Beautiful fiGUME.—Some*one has given
us the following:
“ Life is like a fountain led by ft thousand
streams that perish If one be dried. It is a Sil
ver chord twisted with a thousand strings, that
parts asunder if one tie broken. Thoughtless
mortals arc surrounded by innumerable dan
gers, which make it more strange that they
escape so long, than that almost all perish sud
denly at last. Wc m e encompassed with acci
dents every day to crush the decaying tenement
which we inhabit. The seeds of disease are
planted in our constitution by nature. Ihe
earth and atmosphere, whence we draw the
breath of life, are impregnated with death;
health is made to operate its own destruction.
“ The food that nourishes contains the ele
ments of decay; the soul that animates it by
vivifying first and to wear it out by its own
action. Death lurks in ambush along the path.
Notwithstanding this truth is so palpably con
firmed by the daily example before your eyes,
how little do we lay it to heart. We 6ee our
friends and neighbors die ; but how seldom
does it occur to us our knell may give the next
warning to the world."
A Gloomy Day.—We cordially endorse the
following, which is exactly suited to our pres
ent weather:
“ It rained hard yesterday morning ; it rained
at noon yesterday ; and it rained very hard in
the afternoon, in iact, yesterday was damp,
dreary, dull, dismal and disagreeable. It was
so dark that it was not even pleasant to sit in
side by a good fire, generally a most delightful
thing when it is most disagreeable out of doors.
Os course, there was little business done, the
umbrella trade being the only one in which
there was any activity; and in that, umbrellas
were borrowed more frequently than bought.
Just think of that! A fellow who would bor
row an umbrella, and leave the lender to go to
dinner through the rain without one, is in a fair
way to break into the Legislature or be sen
tenced to Congress ! We hope this intimation,
however, will be a warning to our lriends.none
of whom ever did anything else showing a fit
ness for official position in these days
“ When vice prevails and impious men bear sway.”
A Hint. Do people reflect that most of our
houses are but huge interior chimneys through
which all the bad air, mephitic exhalations,
cooking smoke, etc., rise to the top story and
concentrate there, impairing the clothes and
the health of those who occupy M. uuless
special ventilation be carefully provided ?
We want scientific gas fires, and dumb wait
ers with kitchens and 6tore-rooui* at the lop ol
the building, with no more damp basements
for rats and chiuchas, aud no more domestic
cesspools to beget aud ripen typhoid fever.

Robinson’s Circus.-Tlds renowned circus,
which bas been expected here for some time,
by- delighted juveniles and children oi larger
growth, too, will certainly arrive at the time
appointed—to morrow. The feature of the es
tablishment is the famous Jimmy Robinson,
the only bareback rider in the world. He is
now performing in Savannah, and, apr'opos of
the subject, we clip the following from the Sa
vannah Republican , of yesterday :
“ Robinson’s Circus, last night, was a tri
umphant success. He did what very few circus
companies have done in this region of country,
and that is, he did all his bills promised. ‘ Jim
my ’ Robinson can safely challenge the world
as a bareback rider. His feat of carrying his
son an his head elicited shouts of applause.
The capacity of the immense canvas was insuf
ficient to accommodate the audience.”
Mr. R. has engaged rooms at Hewitt’s Globe
Hotel here for himself and lady.
Salt Not Good for Cows. —H. W. Herbert,
of West Rumney, writes to the Rural American
that “ I keep eighteen cows, and have always
salted them abont once in ten days, or kept a
sufficient quantity in the yard for their use,
and I have noticed for the last two years that
every time I salted them there was invariably a
decrease in milk for a few days following, and
if the salt was kept hy them they would not
give their usual mess until the supply was ta
ken from them, which would very soon in
crease their milk nearly ten per cent.” Mr.
Herbert’s experience is not in accordance
with the generally accepted idea that salt is
good for cows, as well as all other kinds ot
stock. While we do not question the reliabil
ity of the statement, we think an investigation
would reveal some other cause operating in
connection with the salt, for the decrease of
milk. Our columns are open to Mr. Herbert,
or any one else, on the subject.
A Beautiful Thought.— We sometimes
meet while readiug—carelessly, perchance—
a thought or expression which instantly chains
our attention and awakens deep arid serious re
flections. Such an one is the following, which
is even as “apples of gold in pictures of sil
ver :’’
“The sea is the largest of all cemeteries, and
its slumherers sleep without monuments. All
other graveyards in other lands show some dis
tinction between the great and small, the rich
and poor ; but, in the ocean cemetery the king,
and the prince, and thei peasant are all alike
undistinguished. The same wave rolls overall
—the same requiem by the minstrels of the
ocean is sung to their honor. Over the remains
the same storm heals and the same sun shines,
and there, unmarked, the weak and powerful,
the plumed and imhonored, will sleep ou until
awakened hy the same trump.”
Consequences of Divorces. —To what di
vorce sometimes leads is very writ illustrated
in the following:
“ A wom.m, divorced in Chicago last, week,
left the court room with the privilege of chos
ing between five names, to all ot which she
had an equal right, Warren, Greendyke, French,
Connors, and Grant. The lasi, was
name; the rest were the names of four hus
bands, the last of whom had just been legally
disposed of.”
The fact, says the New Fork Express, that in
Chicago twenty-five per cent, of all married
couples are divorced, ought to teach parents to
he more circumspect with their children, chil
dren to be more circumspect about marriage,
and legislators to put a veto upon divorces ex
cept for crime.

“ Sterling Spool Cotton.”—We had a call

f Special Dispatch to the Constitutionalist.
Georgia Legislature.
Atlanta, February 9.
Senate.—Mr. Wooten moved to reconsider
the action of the'Senate in reference to refer
ring the question of the eligibility ot negroes
to office to the Supreme Court. He desired
this, because he wished to vote down the meas
uie. According io the constitution, no outside
party could be the judge of the qualification of
members of this General Assembly. We
swore to support the constitution —not a part
of it, but the whole. It says we shall be tlie
sole judge of this question, and we were
forced to apt ns we did, however obnoxious to
the opposite party.
Mr. Burns followed in the same line of argu
ment. He cited the ease of the Democrats of
the state of Louisiana, who were turned ont of
their seats, and no objection made then or
since. I{e said the attempt to leave the ques
tion to the Supreme Court was a farce. The
State had fully complied with the conditions
imposed by Congress.
Mr. Candler moved to lay the motion to re
consider on the table. Lost. Yeas, 13; nays,
17. •
Mr. Candler then spoke ably in favor of the
original resolution, diflering materially with
others as to non-action being necessary. Geor
gia wanted to abide by the decision. If sub
mitting the matter to the court -could do no
gpod it would at least do no harm, nis re
marks abounded occasionally with sarcasm on
the course pursued by some Democrats on the
question.'
He was followed by Mr. Hinton in an able
legal argument, claiming that if the resolution
passed the effect would be to trample uuder
foot the very constitution we swore to support.
Congress had not even demanded this addi
tional sacrifice.
Mr. Candler made a motion that the debate
close at ten minutes before one o’clock-
Mr. Brock having the floor would not yield,
and made a lengthy speech in favor of Congress
doing as it thought proper.
Mr. Wellborn obtained the floor and made an
exciting speech in favor of the original resolu
tion. The House desired we should do some
thing to convince our Northern friends of both
parties that we desire' to restore peace and
quiet to our State.
It is conceded that all the speeches made to
day were able ones. The galleries were crowd
ed with negroes during the discussion. The
debate was very exciting. It is presumed that
the Conservatives, with a few Democrats and
moderate Republicans, will defeat the original
resolution.
Adjourned, Wellborn having the floor.
In the House, the bill to allow any rate of in

defeated.

Notice from the Louisville Courier.
“ The attention of the pub'ie is called to an adver
tisement headed Chartreuse Elixir or Jeenits’ Secret
It is said to be the most effective cure for the diseases
enumerated ever discovered. It is certainly creating
asensation in the medical world, and its discovery
*HI be hailed with delight by thousands who hare
been hopelessly afflicted.
“It is more effective than the Hot Springs of Arkan
sas, many persons having returned frorr. that fountain
of health unrelieved have been cured permanently by
its use. It is the discovery of ODe of the most emi
nent and successful physicians on the Continent,
whose faith in its curative qualities is sufficiently at
tested by thousands. We have been assured by gen
tlemen wi.h whom we are well acquainted, that they
have seen cures effected in the line of diseases it pro
lesses to treat that had baffled the skill of physicans
of the greatest research and highest standing. We,
therefore, do not hesitate to endorse to the confidence
of the afflicted.”
Noticefrom the Louisville Journal.
“ We invite attention to Mr. Wm. G. Gray’B adver
tisement of this newly discovered and most wonderful
remedy. It is called the ‘Jesuits’ Secret,’ might lie
called the Secret of Perpetual Youth. Its invigorat
ing, beautifying, and life prolonging qualities are cer
tainly unsurpassed; nay, they are unequaled In this
respect, it throws the famous Hot Springs in Arkan
sas, almost magical as they are, far into the shade. It
throws into the shade everything of the kind, indeed,
except the Fountain of Youth which Pokcb dr Lkon
sought, and from which the Elixir seems to have been
gathered. But we will not undertake to describe the
properties of tills panacea. It can be tried more easily
than described or imaginod.”
Notice from the New Albany (Ind.) Commercial.
“ Thi -Jesuits’ Secret We take pleasure in call
ing the attention of our readers to the advertisement of
the above named medicine. We have heard one of the
most prominent physician* of Louisville speak in b;-gh
terms of this preparation; thore'ore. \ve have no hesi
tancy in saying that we oonsMfr it at least as good ( if
not the best medicine lor Scrofula, Rheun\atisnn, and
kindred afflictions, which has yet bocm offered to the
public. It is not a quack medicine, but a prescription
such as the most learned phjsicians give to their pa
