Street Railroad Maxims.— l. When
you want to stop a car, shout or run until
you catch the eye of the driver or conduc
tor, then walk at a snail’s pace until you
can touch the platform, and growl like a
bear if the car moves before you have
leisurely taken your seat. Forty people,
packed in like herrings, may be kept wait
ing and the car may miss connection; but
that’s none of your business, and this is a
free country.
2. When you want to get out, wait until
you have passed your destination, and then
report the conductor for not knowing in
stinctively where you desired to stop.
3. When you take your seat in the cars
of the Broad street line, choose the right
hand side, and get as near as you can to
the driver. No instance is found on record
where gal-antry or woman-try has com
pelled the keen passenger in the right hand
upper corner to relinquish his seat.
4. Be alert in making room for a lady.
The first to rise, setting a good example,
are the last to lose their seats.
5. If a lady, do not forget that it is a
pleasure for those lazy men, who run about
all day, to stand up while they ride home.
Do not hesitate to take any seat that is
offered you ; if two are made vacant, take
both.
6- If a lady, be careful, when a seat is
made vacant for you, to spread out your
train so that neither frill nor furbelow shall
be inconveniently mashed. Fluting is cost
ly, and men like to stand.
7. Any streetcar will hold comfortably
twenty-two men or six ladies.
8. When the car is empty, if you are a
young man, be careful to stand on the plat
form with the conductor. This is far more
aristocratic than quietly takiug your seat.
9. Always, and upon all oesasions, abuse
the street railway company. It is the ser
vant of the public, and stockholders have
no rights which the public is bound to re
spect.
Periodicals. —The XIX Century is the
best of onr Southern literary magazines.
The August number contaius a reply of ex-
Governor Perry to Col. Isaac W. Hayne,
which is quite characteristic and very
adroit. There are several other excellent
articles, but this is the most conspicuous
and Interesting.
De Bow's Review lias much vim, but
seems lacking in the typographical execu
tion which the age demands. We note an
exceedingly ingenious article from the pen
of the editor, Mr. Bnrwell, entitled The
Book of Numbers. *
The Maryland Farmer continues t,o be
as near perfection as an agricultural maga
zine gets to be. It is conducted with sig
nal ability.
The Southern Cultivator seems to be get
ting behind hand. In point of typography
it is greatly interior to its superb rivals,
the Macon Farm and Homenwl Charleston
Rural Carolinian. There seems also to be
a lack of vigor and freshness about this
sturdy old periodical, which ought not to
be, by any means.
Death ok Col. A. A. Gauldtno —The
Atlanta Intelligencer announces the death

the proprietors and editor of that old Demo
cratic journal, 7 he Empire State, and subse
quently one of the proprietors and editor s
of the Intelligencer, upon the-editorial staff
of which he was employed at the time of
his decease. *

Fatal Ltghtning Stroke in Atlanta.
—From the Constitution, of yesterday we
learn that a heavy rain storm visited
Atlanta on Monday, accompanied bv ter
rific lightning, which struck at several
points in the city, and in one instance
proved falal to a young man. The follow
ing serious effects of the lightning are re
corded :
Hearing that a man had been struck at
West End, we paid a visit to that thriving
suburban town Upou arriving there, we
saw the evidence of ij.s fearful work. The
one-story frame sto e occupied bv Spilman
w Charles was struck by lightning in t.he
rear, the fluid knocking off part of the
chimney aud a portion of the rear end. The
ceiling was punctured in fifteen or t wenty
places by descending bolts. Charles Strawn,
a young man verging on his 21st year, and
a clerk in the store, was standing in the
front door at the time, and was knocked
out ou the pavement. He was killed
instantly, his ueck aud back beiug broken.
The adjoiuing stores on either side also
liear marks of the lightning’s power, in
shattered planks and panes of glass. Dr.
Sewell, in an adjoining store, was locking
the back door at the time, and was knock
ed by the concussion senseless on his back
on the floor. Mr. Johnson, his clerk, who
was standing by the front window (the
sash being raised), was knocked through
the open window into the street. The
lightning coursed down his left side nearly
to the knee and then leaped over to the
right leg aud downwards. The course of
fluid can be sidfe in a burn all along its
track. Several others were also shocked.
We then proceeded with dispatch to North
End to view the scene of another disaster
there. The lightning struck and shivered
an oak tree in the yard of Rev. Peck, col
ored pastor of Wheat Street Church, in
rear of the former residence of Col. A. W.
Stone. A flue milch cow standing under
the tree was instantly killed, and a son of
Peck’s was knocked under the house by
the lightning. The yard dog dragged the
boy from underneath the house into the
yard, where the rain, then falling copious
ly, had the effect of restoring him to con
sciousness. He was not seriously hurt.—
The dog, after rescuing the boy, .iumped
over the fence and fled, aud has not been
heard of since.
The killing of stock in various parts of
the city is also reported.
WIVES AND MOTHERS.—OnIy woman
knows what women endure; and if there be
any means of assuaging the distress of body
and mind which so many thousands experience, ■
day alter day and week after week, with a forti
tude which puts to shame the boastful courage
of man, who will deny that so great a blessing
to the sex shonld be found in every household ?
Millions of men have been benefitted by its
ase, Out among the feeble and sickly of the
opposite gender, who, perhaps, need it most,
its virtues are not so widely known. This
foremost remedy of the age—this specific for
every species of debility, general or local, con
stitutional or casual, is Plantation Bittbrs.
One right of woman, at least, will be conceded
—the right to strengthen herself to sustain the
ills ol which the laws of uature have made her
the unfortunate heiress.

New York, August 6, 1870—3, P. M.
The cable dispatches to-day announce an
improvement of % to 1 per cent, in United

monetary circles in London, and thd&e ad
vices were reflected here in a steady market
for our bonds, and a weakening of the Gold

however, brought in bnyers, and the price

The limes ascribes the French disaster
to the Emperor’s obstinacy in refusing
sound military advice and to his illness.
The limes says parties In France will make
the Emperor pay the penalty of ill success.
His name is already ignored in acts by
which the Regency seeks to rally the peo
ple. Things arrange themselves as if he
was not expected to resume his power, as
if testing how he may lie dispensed with
altogether. The only question is, who
shall first utter the word " alxlicat ion.”
Edmund About writes from the field, bit
terly condemning the Emperor’s misman
agement.. He says: “ Having declared war
lie let the Prussians begin it. It is trne
that neither party was ready to act. The
French lost twenty days in marching and
countermarching. They were surprised at
Weissenburg by the enemy, whom there
were no videttes to watch, no skirmishers
to meet, and no plau to repel.”
Parts, August 9.— ThePatrie says: “The
Government calls upou all former officers
and soldiers having served in the armies of
France to take their grades in the regi
ments of volunteers or of the Garde Mobile,
which are to go the front immediately.—
This request has been greeted enthusiasti
cally, and nnmbers are responding to the
call.
There were two councils of the Ministry
to-day.
Gen. Cbangarnier left his residence this
morning to go seek command at headquar
ters. Thousands of people accompanied
him to the railway.
Le Veluntarie says Gen. Changarnier, as
soon as he heard of the affair at Weissen
burg, telegraphed, asking for a command.
This morning’s papers say nothing is cer
tain concerning the course of Austria.—
Russia is keeping her qniet with promises
just now.

Nothing of the sort has taken place.

have been effective if any outbreak was
really contemplated.
The journals here announce, with warm
approval, that Italy is ready to send 100,000
armed men to the assistance of France.
There has been no battle to-day.
The corps of-Gen. Failly, which was not

yesterday, was retarded by the storm. But
for this the last of the troops would have

Washington, August 9—P. M.—Reve
nue to-day, $318,000.
The recent decision of the Treasury De
partment, that vessels arriving in the wa
ters of the United States cannot change
their clearance papers is adhered to. This
is in consequence of some vessels cleared
for New York having changed papers to
New Jersey ports in order to avoid quaran
tine regulations.
The following is the whereabouts of ves
sels composing the North Atlantic squad
ron: The Nantasket and Swataraare ftt
St. Doraiogo; the Congress, Dictator and
Jiaugus at Key West, ami thq.Severn at
Hampton Roads. The Tuscarora is en
gaged! in convoying iron-clads from New
York to Key West, and the Nantic in tak
ing soundings.
It can be positively stated that the Presi
dent and Cabinet are very decided in opju
ion that both law and sound public policy
demand that an election should be held in
Georgia this coming Fall. Among the
strbngest in this belief is the Attorney
General, ana the attempt to defeat an elec
tion is held by the majority of tlie Cabinet
to be a gross outrage.
Raleigh, August 9.—Returns come in
slowly, but enough Is known to pot the
'election of five Democratic Congressmen
beyond a,doubt. Thirty-two State Sena
tor and seventy-five Commoners elected
by the Democrats certain, and probably
more.

ant of martial law, continue to assemble
on the streets and discuss the war.
London, August 9.—A rumor has reach
ed here that the Prussians are in Mnlhaus
ser, 61 miles southwest of Strasbourg.
Paris, August 9.—The Minister of the
Interior lias issued a proclamation an
nouncing, according to the terms of the
law of 1849, that, on the declaration of a
state of seige, the military authorities have
the right to interdict all publications of a
nature to excite or keep up disorders, and
such a proposition as that made by the
Siecle, to institute a committee of defense
lends to anarchy and compromises unity
of action, creating useless agitation. On
the advice of the conucil of Ministers, it is
decided that the military authorities shall
apply prescriptive measures to any journal
renewing such proposition.
Republican and Democratic journals ad
vise the immediate meeting of the Corps
Legislatif and arming of the people. They
all censure strongly the disorders which
have taken place In the streets, and coun
sel calmness and moderation.
Deputies to the Corps, now in Paris, met
yesterday afternoon aud called upon the
Empress.
Great activity in enrolling of volunteers
in all parts of the city.

The Journal Offic.iel contains the follow
ing uotices and decrees:
“ Minister Washburne was received yes
terday by the Empress, for the purpose of
delivering the reply of President Grant to
tetters recalling Minister Bertheray.”
“ The departments of Cote L’Or, Saone,
Lorraine and Rhone, are declared in a state
of siege.”
The following report was telegraphed
from Metz yesterday, at 10:15, a. m.:
“The corps of General Failly, which was
not engaged in the recent actions, is the
rallying point of the army. It has not been
disturbed. Marshal McMahon has exe
cuted movements prescribed for him.—
There lias been no engagement to-day.”
The proclamation of the Ministers is re
ceived with enthusiasm.
The decree relative to the incorporation
in the ranks of the National Home Guard
of all citizeus between the ages of thirty
and forty years, who do not already belong
to some of the military organizations, con
vokes all chiefs of corps, and prescribes
measures for immediate rearmament of the
guard with guns; adhered to breech load
ers ; in sections where the National Guard
has not heretofore been organized, the
chiefs of battalions have already been ap
pointed, and, thanks to the efficiency of the
measures taken, the organization of the
National Guard will soon extend to every
part of France. In the department of
the Seine, where that organization is
strongest, it has already given proof
of devotion and patriotism which can
not lie changed by the circumstances
through which we are passing. On de
mand of the Minister of War, the Pre
fect this morning charged the engineers of
the municipal service with the execution
of plans for strengthening the fortifications
of Paris. This service will be organized
at once and divided between three chief
engineers and eleven assistants. Each
chief will lie in charge of an arrondisse
ment. The Prefect commits the chief
supervision of the entire work to Inspector
General Arphaud.
At 2 o’clock yesterday the direction of
the service, in presence of generals and
colonels, directors of the fortifications,
opened negotiations with the most consid
erable contractors of Paris. These con
tractors said they would make no condi
tions but placed, their fortunes and their
personal services, their material and their
experience at the disposal of the authori
ties for the defenses of Paris. The officials
and engineers at once took possession of the
work shops offered by the contractors.
Last night, posters were distributed over
the city, inviting citizens between the ages
of thirty and forty to present themselves
within three days at the Mayoralty house,
for enrollment in the National Guard. As
soon as enrollment is completed the distri
bution of arms will commence.
Paris, August 9 —Evening.—The Corps
Legislatif met to-day. An order of the day,
directed against the Ministry, was pro
posed by Clement Dureonois, aud was
adopted by a large majority. Ollivier
asked for a suspension of the sittiug for a
few minutes.
The proclamation of martial law was
rather a precautionary than an imperative
measure, and its rigorous enforcement Ls
not contemplated.
The official journal, after describing the
resources and patriotic spirit of the nation,
which has always been an obstacle to
Prussian ambition, asks what other Power
would like to see Prussia making the North
and Baltic seas Prussian lakes, invading
smaller States and acquiring dangerous
preponderance? Favorable signs are al
ready apparent. England is satisfied with
the categoric assurances of France, and
hastens to render secure the northern
frontiers of France by causing Belgian
neutrality to be respected.
In Sweden, Norway and Denmark,
popular feeling ls with France, and the
Emperor of Russia gives proofs of the best
understanding with France. Austria and
Italy are arming, and will cause embarrass
ment to Prussia. French diplomacy is not
more idle than French arms will be, and
Prance will prove she has not degenerated
in 1870.
