<S,|ranicle & §»etttmef. WKPIIBBAI MOINING. JPE* *»• Mr. Bumncr. AN INFATUATED FEMALE FALLS IN LOVE with the Massachusetts senator. [From the Washington Capital.] The social atmosphere in the neigh borhood of the Arlington was disturbed last week by an event seriously affect ing our friend, the Hon, Charles Sum i., r. It seems that an infctuated fe ll, :ile, far off in the regions of Maine, took the insano determination in her fe male brain to be a slave for life to her idol, the great statesman. To this end she first addressed a letter to the unfor tunate victim, and then, being full of enthusiastic tenderness, but not full of greenbacks, she set out on foot. At every stopping place on the way she mailed a bulletin to the statesman. With the cunning of insanity she used the Iranking privilege with the greatest lit* rality. Night after night the great negotiator of foreign relations continued to receive these fearful messages ; and, like the dropping water npon stone, they woie upon his brain. When hut huge, mail came in his great heart sank within him. This at last came to be a terror. His fate was approaching. His fate came slowly bat surely on foot. If it could have been swift—if one could be put out of misery—but to know day after day, to waken and toss through the long watches of the night, and realise that the infernal woman was on foot and every hour brought her Dearer, , was terrible. At last, one morning the door bell was rung, as if the Angel of Death, n .rnewhat behind time in his appoint ment with the family physician, was taking a pull as the summons, The ser vant whose duty it was to respond to the door, hurried up, and, opening it, saw a tall, slender female, with a carpet sack thrown over her shoulders, armed with a cotton umbrella, and gazing at life through a pair of spectacles that served as did the once-feared masked batteries of the late war. The proprie tor of these several disagreeable quali ties thrust a note into the darkey’s hand, and said in a shrill voice of command, “ Give that to ye’r boss.” This was done. The terrified states man gazed from the window and saw his fate. For a moment he stood dizzy and irresolute. The servant brought him the note. He read : " Washington, D. C. —Senator Sum ner : 1 have accomplished my journey. lam standing on your door-step. May I come in ? Miss Susan A. Gritz.” The orator, bcckoniDg to a policeman he had engaged in advance to guard his premises, locked his door. In a moment the policeman asked admission. Open ing the door cautiously an inch, Sumner said in deep tragic tones, ‘‘Arrest that female at the door.” But he spoke too late. He heard a hurried step upon the stair.. He slammed the door, and too much frightened to lock it, fled and con cealed himself in a closet. A brief en gagement carne off between the muni ciple snapping-turtle and the enthusias tic female. At last it was decided in favor of enthusiasm. She poked the guardian of the Senator in the right « ye with the end of her cotton umbrella, lie gave a great howl and fell back. She entered the room. She gated hurriedly around. She opened the door and saw her idol. I am here, your Susan ; behold me, your guardian !” she cried. “ Woman, begone !” exclaimed the Senator; “ I want you not. I am de voted to uiy country ; I am wedded to my books. Women annoy ; therefore, begone!” “ Not want me ! You stupid man. You do want me ; you need protection ; you need tender solicitude. I come to purify and sustain—and I will I’’ Here she threw out her arms—one hand wieldiug the carpet-sack, the other the umbrella. Either through acoident or design, she threw from its pedestal to the floor, breaking in pieoes, an exquisite marble statuette of the Venus de Medici. At this moment policemen rallied, and, assisted by the colored fellow-citizens of the mansion, captured the frantio female by throwing a rug over her head, and, amid screams, kicks and a fearful strug gles, oarted her off to an insano asylum. The friends of the Senator have since made up a pony purse, and shipped fe male enthusiasm back to her home in Muine. Am Intelligent Juror, Our exchanges contain tho following : Question alternately by the Court, Stales Attorney, and the defense, as usually auswered by an “ intelligent juror:” “ Arc you opposed to capital punish ment?” “ Oh, yes—yes, sir." “ If you were on a jury, then, where a man was beiug tried for his life, you wouldn’t agree to a verdict to hang him ?’’ “ Yes, sir—yes I would.” " Have yon formed or expressed an opiuiou as to the guilt or innocence of the accused ?” “ Yes, sir 1" “ Your mind, then, is made up ?” “ Oh, no, not ar bit.” “ Have you ever heard of this case ?” “ I think 1 have.” " Would you decide, if on the jury, according to the evidence or mere ru mor ?” “ Mere rumor.” “ Perhaps you don’t understand ; would you decide according to evi dence ?’’ “ Evidence.” “ It it was in your power to do so, would you change the law of capital punishment or let it stand ?” “ Let it stand.” The Court : " Would you let it stand or change it ?” “ Change it.” “ Now, which would you do ?” “ Don’t know, sir.’’ “ Are you a freeholder?’’ *' Yes, sir, oh yes.” “ Do you own a house and land or rent ?” “ Neither—l’m a boarder.” “ Have you formed an opinion?” " No, sir.” “ Have you expressed an opinion ?” “ I think I have.” The Court : “ Gentlemen, I think the juror is competent. It is evident he has never formed or expressed an opinion on any subject” Thero have been many stories told of Greeley’s chirography, but the Cincin nati Times adds another. It says that Mr. Greeiy recently wrote a letter re garding the proposed removal of the national capital, proposing New York i ity as an eligible site for the structure. The Cincinnati Times states that it is a little difficult to decipher the letter, but Mr. Greeley evidently “ bases his of the 15th resisting codfish cucumbers of Cin cinnati at twenty-five cents a pound.” The body of the letter is as follows : •< It >'s not possible that I should ever stole them again. As pudding is a re proach to comic sections, the very gayest conveyances of our cemeteries are un true, and preserves are bankrupt. Swill your nicest cantelopes in W ashingtou until it swims in an unfortunate location. All the McOarthys are sure to be ve neered, unless they accept moral pole cats. I bought four of the earliest, and I suffered fearfully undeniable cross-cut saws. Who bought all the nuts and lozenges of the (Ecumenical Council ?

If the Republicans are to elect the next President they must recover several of these States.—A etc Yoik Evening /W. Just so- They will not only have to re cover all of these, but some others which they carried in 1868, and whioh are now CWtaia to vote Democratic in 1872. [From the Plantation.] To Industrial Papers of Oar Cities. Why the word industrial is applied by common usage to pursuits which are coucerned chiefly with human or me chanical labor, we do not know. The brain is about as busy a workshop as we have ever seen in a foundry or a mill. But its workings, however smooth or jarring, are not seen or heard, and by the masses are, therefore, not felt. By a common consent, the word industrial is applied to those pursuits which re quire either physical or mechanical labor. The multiplication, since the war, cl these industrial papers, has been extend ed and rapid. A glance at them will not be without interest. Our leading commercial city is, with a single exception, wholly deficient in papers of this class. A monthly is is sued of small compass, which, though well conducted, is, We belive, chiefly designed to advance the sale of a par ticular fertilizer. This monthly is not w holly deficient in really valuable agri cultural information, but if we under stand it, this information, other than that which is specific, i3 an incident rather than a material purpose. Yet, no por tion of the State requires specific devo tion to agriculture, in the way of news papers, more than our coast. There are unsolved problems of immense prac tical importance to it. It has a king dom as large as Holland, in now use less marshes. Can they be profitably re claimed ? If private capital is insuffi cient, should we follow English example, and require the State to supply our de ficiencies ? Which best pays, an acre in rice or an acre in grass ? What ex amination of the phosphatic beds of the Georgia coast Las been made ? How far might the manufacture of salt be made profitable in view of the connec tion of the residium of salts as a manure, our cheapest manure being the residium of salt manufactured in Virginia ? It is our opinion that the coast lands have not approximated their real value in prices and in products. It is surprising that investigation in that section has been, thus far, so limited. We observe with pleasure that the Industrial Association of Chatham county exhibits indications of revival. That time honored county should lead us and not be lead, It has advantages which arc topical as well as tropical, which require elevatiou and de velopment. Augusta, on the other hand, may boast two well conducted industrial news papers. One weekly, issued from the office of the Chronicle and Sentinel— a paper which is not merely agricultu ral and industrial, but which combines yith these topics tho imperishable rem iniscences of our late war. The statisti cal enquiries of General Alexander are worth many times the cost of the sub scription price. We don’t expect to fight Yankees again, but the reminiscen ces of the war in which we did fight them are holy, and a paper which cher ishes them should he sustained by true hearted Georgians. Each number of the Banner or the South and Planters’ Journal contains a roster of a Confederate regiment, giv ing the brigade in which the regiment served; battles in which it took part, name, rank, promotions, and wounds of all officers above the rank of lieutenant. This list is confined to Longstreet’s Corps, of which Gen. E. P. Alexander was chief of artillery. The last number gives the roster of the 17th Mississippi Regimefit. The Farmer and Gardener is pub lished semi-monthly, and is edited by Messrs. Berckmans and Gray. This ex cellent paper, conducted with the ability which we might anticipate from its well known editors, is more largely directed to horticulture, pomology and flori cul ture, than any other of our journals de voted to the improvement of the pro ducts of the soil. We venture, respect fully, to express the wish that it were wholly devoted to those topics, leaving the wider area of field culture to other journals. The subjects of fruitgrowing, farm and market gardening and the culture of Southern flowers, afford abundant material for a single journal. Will the editors consider the suggestion, and allow the rest of us to draw frpm them as to those specialties, with proper acknowledgements ? It is, perhaps, an error of all of our agricultural journals that we attempt to occupy too much ground. In Athens, we find the time honored Cultivator —that venerable old institu tion whose foundations are so deep set, that all the pick-axes and crow-bars of war could not overthrow it, and which still lives in vigor under the able con duct of the Messrs. Jones. The circu lation of the Cultivator is very much larger than that of any other Southern | agricultural journal whatsoever, and its correspondents hail from a much wider scope of country. It is, therefore, more than any other a representative Southern monthly—its correspondence ranging from Texas to Virginia The Farmer and Artizan, an agri cultural weekly, is also published in Athens. But as we have unfortunately seen but one number of this journal, it is impossible for us to express a just opinion as to its merits. The reputation of its editor should give assurance that it is an useful and instructive journal. Macon lias its Farm and Home —two very nice things to have, and they are both well managed and well kept. There is in no part of the United States a monthly devoted to general agriculture, which is conducted with greater ability than the Farm and Home. Its editor is a gentleman who brings to our aid a familiarity with foreign practice as to culture and labor. Ho knows how peo ple have managed who never owned a negro, and it is in his power to inform us as to that practice. This informa tion lie gives with perspicuity and force, and also upon topics of home farm prac tice with which he has an intelligent familiarity. The Georgia Cultivator, an agricul tural weekly, is published at Griffin. This paper is of very recent establish ment and bids fair to accomplish its full share of usefulness. The Rural Southerner is published monthly at Atlanta, by Samuel A. Echols, a young man of decided ability and energy, who is rapidly gaining friends for this already popular monthly. Os the Plantation it does not be come us to speak unless it be to say that it is earnestly striving to do its duty. We have made this review of the agricultural papers of our State for sev eral reasons. We doubt if there be an other State in Union in which there are so many well conducted agricultural newspapers as in Georgia. Four month lies, one semi-monthly, and three week lies. These papers, independent of editorial ability, are fillled with corres pondence from our best thinkers and most practical men. It is not surpris ing to reflect that in a momentary de pression, so general, these papers are 90 well sustained. It is an evidence that our people are beginning to understand the truth, that our agtieulture is, of all our material interests, by far the most important. And we take pleasure in expressing our belief, that never in the history of the State, has our agricul tural interest been in a condition which promises so well as at present. We do not refer to onr present crops or a pres ent surplus of money. We cannot con trol either seasons or prices. But to the life and vigor, and determination to succeed by improving upon the past, which is every where present. In the accomplishment of this result, agricultu ral papers have been largely instru mental. Romantic Marriage. —We copy the following from the Bryan (Texas) Eagle A marriage occnred in this vicinity last week which savors somewhat of romance. A young man of comely ap pearance and tender emotions, who lives in the bottom, was smijten with the charms of a maiden fair who resides in the same locality, and who reciprocated most heartily the tender feelings pos sessed by the aforesaid young man. As a natural consequence they determined to share the trials and happiness of their future lives jointly, and vowed their two hearts should beat as one. With this determination in view, the young man sought an interview with the “ stern parient” of the lovely damsel, and laid before him the cherished plans of his heart. The old gentleman listened pa tiently to the plea of his would-be son in-law, and then, with the ooolneas that would have been refreshing daring the heated season to any bat an enamored lover, Le informed the young man that he did not consider the latter's finances of a sufficient standard to warrant the coveted relationship, and bade him cher ish no longer each hopeless ideas. The daughter was then informed that her lover had been discarded, and was in structed to blot his image from her heart. This, as an obedient child, she proceeded to do, by writing a letter and placing it in her father’s hand for de livery to her lover, announcing that she had discarded him. The young man, upon the receipt of the letter and its perusal, placed a different construction upon the language from what the old gentleman did, and proceeded to pro cure two marriage licenses—one from the district clerk of Burleson county, ami one from the district clerk of this county. Procuring the services of a justices of the peace, the young couple resorted clandestinely to the Brazos river, where a boat awaited them, which they entered, together with the officer, and pushing to the centre of the stream, they were united in the holy bonds of wedlock. Begin Bight. The following, if not new, is, at least, true, and is worthy of attention at this particular tilde, when so many “ of ’om” are rushing incontinently into the holy bonds of matrimony, to be lost to us for ever. ‘‘ This little fable," said my uncle, “ may perhaps be of service to some poor devil, ‘ more willing than wise.’ ” A young man once married a lady whose reputation for amiability of dis position was seriously questioned, if not in reality seriously questionable. At the wedding everything went off merri ly, of course ; the party gay, the supper magnificent—the whole affair had been eminently successful, and all parties ex tremely delighted. On retiring to his apartments the gen tleman found himself annoyed by the mewing and purring of a cat. “ What in the deyil’s name is that ?” he exclaimed. “ Oh, nothing, my dear,” replied the bride, “ but my favorite cat Pussita.’’ “ Oh, d—n Pussita—l hate cats 1” and with this he unceremoniously threw Pussita out of the second story window. “ Well, if you liave’nt got a tamper !” “ Yes, my dear, you’d better believe it." “ Everything," continued my uncle, “ went on well in that establishment— even to a warm dinnor on Sunday.” Now, it so happened that a friend of the above mentioned gentleman, who had some months before “committed the error” of marrying " an angel,” took oc casion to inquire of him : “ How is it, that with you everything goes merry as a marriage bell, while I, on the contrary, have almost given up the idea of wearing the pantaloons at all.” “ He .related to him the story of Pus sita and the second story window,” said my uncle, “ without fully impressing on. his mind the important moral that it was necessary to begin right. Neverthe less, there was that in his eye when he started for home, ‘ that told of trea son.”’ • ' “ Well!” said his wife, “ you’ve come ■home at last, have you, after keeping me sitting up for you. And what’s the matter—you havn’t been drinking, have you ? You look very strange.” “ Not in the least, my love—but I bate cats, my love.” “ You do, do you ? well I like ’em— that’s all the difference.” Hereupon the unfortunate husband made a dash at poor Tabby, who w»s quietly snoozing on the sofa, and rushed impetuously to the window. “ You have been drinking. What are you going to do, monster ?" “ Throw her out of the window." “ You’d better try it ; I’d like to see you do it ; I’d break every bone in your body ; why don’t you throw her out ? I dare you to do it, sir." He put the cat softly down on the so s his hat on a peg in the hall— his manliness and his pantaloons on an easy chair, and said : “ Go in, ducky, darling, and win ; I didn’t begin right.” “ I rather think you didn’t—you’d better take a fresh start—but don’t try that game again, or you’ll catch it. Come te bed,” and he went. “ Wrong from the beginning,” said pay uncle. “ Oh, dear me.” Microscopic Germs of Fermenta tion.—The same minute germs, which cause and promote fermentation, have been ascertained as entering the animal system and there producing malarious and infecting diseases. These germs are not destroyed by the most in tense colds, but only kept inactive for some time, and some of these microsco pic fungi have been found capable of passing rapidly through red hot tubes without losing their vitality, however, some die even at the temperature of boiling water. Creosote or carbolic acid has been proved to be one of the most active materials to prevent fermentation. A small quantity of carbolic acid, thrown into a fermenting liquid, would com pletely kill the organism. Therefore creosote is also recommended for inter nal use against several diseases of the channels of digestion and the organs of respiration, nervous fever and others, which are supposed to be brought on by the influence of said germs. Externally creosote is useful against chronic diseases of the skin, sores, scalds, and wounds, in the form of poultices, lotions, and injec tions, or mixed with lard (five drops to one drachm) as an ointment. A young lady, about to be married, in sisted on haviDg a certain clergyman to perform tho ceremony, saying, “He always throws so much feeling into the thing ; and I wouldn’t give a fig to be married unltss it oould be done in a style of gushing rhapsody I” Cincinnati Provision Market. BT KENNEDY, ECKERT 4 CO. Cincinnati, July 7, 1871. Editors Chronicle <£ Sentinel: The Provision market daring the past week has remained ih about the same condition as last reported. Bacon and Bulk Meats are a shade higher, while Mess Pork and Lard are unchanged and neg lected. Holders are firm and ask full prices, which buyers are compelled to pay when having positive orders to buy. The trading this week was light, and confined to filling orders for future, which does not decrease our stock. Consumers were ex pected to take hold freely this month, but thus far we can see no improvement from that source. They are buying only what their immediate wants require, and unless they do take hold more freely this month than last we can see no visible show for any advauce, but on the contrary, a de cline in values is likely to be the result. The offerings of summer cared meats is increasing daily ; the quality is good, and it is taken at i@Je. under price of winter cured. There is as yet no signs of a let-up in the receipts of summer hogs. There is considerable of old corn to feed them on, and the farmer finds it about as profitable to put biscorn into hogs as to send it to market; besides this, they have made up their miuds that hogs will open low at tbs opening of the new packing season, and are willing to meet the market from day to day. The country packers have uu loaded considerable stuff this wa*k, but it is not going, but being placed in the cel lars here to find a market at some future time. To-day the market opened, firm and steady, but under discouraging ad vices from ether markets closed weak, buyers manifesting a disposition to hold off. Mess Pork—Has fluctuated bui little; there being no demand holders had it their own way, asking sls 50 for city packed, but efforts to get over sls proved unsuc cessful, and one lot inside sold at this rate. Country is held at sls, with no buyers. Rumps—Neglected at 12 to 13. Dry Salted or Bulk Meats— Have been in fair request all the week, bat buyers and sellers differed somewhat in their views; still a fair business was done mostly in speculation, and higher prices were paid. Shoulders opened at 6c, ad vanced to 61, which rate was paid for round lots. At the close buvers were oat of the market. Rib Sides advanced to 74 ; C. R. and C.ear, 7i@Bie, but holders at the close asked a concession on these rates. Hams scarce at 10 to 11c. Bellies, Bto 84, all loose, ic. more packed. Bacon— ln sympathy with Balk Meats, also partook o! a slight advance, closing quiet; most of the sales to cover contracts.

Secretions and diseased Blood, I take great pleasure in recommending Kosadaus as the most valuable and efficient remedial agent I have ever tried, or the effects of which I have ever observed. Nearly threo years ago I was attacked with Sciatio Rheu matism, which rapidly diffused itself, through my entire system, affecting par ticularly the hips, back and lowet ex tremities. For many months X could not. walk nor stand withont support; and al though I traveled ccristantly over a large district, attending to my ministerial duties, £ had to be helped iu and out of my carriage, and assisted in dressing and undressing myseli'. I knew no exern ption Irom severe suffering for about eighteen months. Different physicians had pre scribed for me remedies most relied upon, with no appreciable result. Finally one of them suggested the use of Rosadalis. In a very hort time its salutary effects were Clearly manifested. In a few months I couside-ed myself so near well that I felt like anew man, and discontinued the use of the medicine. After a few months of extreme and exhausting labor and expo sure my disease revived. I resorted again to RosADALis.and find it is the only rem - edy that will control my case. ROBADALIB is Alterative, Tonic aud Diuretic, and acts at one and. the same time upon the BLOOD, LIVER, KIDNEYS and all tbs SECRETORY ORGANS, expelling all impure matter and building up the sys tem to a healthy, vigorous condition, ROSADALIS IS SOLD BY ALL DRUGGISTS.
