The above is tlie title of a book to be issued this week, Avhi.clt is destined to create a sensation, Its author is a statesman.who, having been identi fied with the history of our country for nearly two generations, brings to his task tin experience such as is pos sessed by few of the writers of* the age; and who treats his subject m a -manner at once fascinating and in structive. The book should be in ev school-room. and in every library in the United States. It is the History of the country, its unmanned body, and its pervading spirit; a Yade, Me -1 urn to'bo* A student and statesman; a nocessitv to every one who wishes to know what lias been done, and why it has been done, by those who made, and those who have administered tlie government of these states. The volume—l'Jmo., 513 pages, with numerous' illustrations—is beautiful printed* and tastefully and strongly bound. Price, $1.50. , Come to (Brief. — Macon is a hard road to travel, as many peripatetic scoundrels have learned to their great sorrow, and for the number of our population, we venture to say there is no smaller and yet more efficient and vigilant police force in the Uni ted States. We are led to these re marks from the fact that within only a few weeks past several important arrests haye been made of counter feiters. forgers and bank robbers, two of whom are now confined in our jail awaiting trial. On Tuesday morn ing another important arrest was made by officer Craig, who captured an individual by the name of Ander son. This man had concealed about bis person a considerable amount of gold coin, ten Bonds of SI,OOO each, of the Central Pacific Railroad, SBOO in gold certificates, a letter of credit for £I.OOO sterling upon the Bank of Brit ish North America, besides drafts and other papers of apparent value. He was arrested upon suspicion that everything was not as it should be. and subsequent investigation! proved the supposition well founded. Asa consequence, Mr. Anderson masti cates hash at Finney/s academy for the blind—drunk. Too much credit cannot be awarded officer Craig and, the entire police force of the city, for their untiring efforts ih bringing to justice some of the worst criminals that ever infested any country. Arrival of a Distinguished Carpet- Bagger.—lt becomes our paidful duty to chronicle the arrival in our midst of his royal highness, the recently ousted ex-Supervisor of Internal Rev enue, for the States of Georgia and Florida, Wladimar Krzyzanowski. originally from Poland and latterly from behind a net work of iron bars in Washington City. How this dis tinguished Pole managed to escape the clutches of the law, we are not fully apprised, but we presume the old thing was worked by the recipient of bull pups with a solemn p&mise from Frizzy that he would do any dirty job to which he might be as signed by his gift taking master. The pledge is about being fulfilled, for we understand that Wladimar's carpet bag is deposited here for the cam paign in which he proposes to take a hand as a candidate for Congress for this district in the approaching elec tion. tiucli an -efficient government official cannot fail to make a most su perior representative of the people of the StaP* in the halls of Congress. The position of Secretary of the Treasury would [be more to liis liking and would pay him better, but as his aspirations do not tend in that direc tion just arthistime. we must content ourselves with lending him all the as sistance in.our power in granting his demands.. The gods don't appear to -have any great "amount of affection f <r Krizzy ~r he would have died young, but as as he is spared to afflict j ujs with his presence we propose en tering a worthless bench legged fice against him in the contest for Con gressional honors, and after the result is known, well kill the dog to spare hi hi farther humiliation, that is, if tlie canine don't shuffle off this mor tal coil from an acute attack of dis grace consequent upon his political association during the campaign. An Encyclopedia of the Best Thoughts Charle .y Dlekeus Compiled and ar ranged in Pamphlet Form, by F. (1. i)< Fontaine. — L\ J. Hale a- Son. 17 Murray Street. New Ydrk. Tlie millions of admirers: of Dick ens will welcome this work as a valu able addition to household and office libraries, for there is not a profession, occupation, or trade, to which its contents do not refer. Under the proper alphabetical ti tle will be found all of the beautiful passages, tender sentihients,humorous phrases, and dramatic descriptions of characters, places, and events,that so strongly mark the writings of the great novelist. The conversational ist, who reads to quote with effect; the minister or lawyer, who desires an extract that shall add a point to his public efforts; the journalist, who wishes to give force to an editorial, or more graphically portray some event; the lfierchant, capitalist, clerk, bachelor, physician; the Pecksniffs and Podsnaps of society, the Dick Swivellrs and Sairey Gamps, the Mark Taplevs and Sam Wellers —all will find compiled iii this one volume, conveniently arranged for ready refer ence, the “Best Thoughts” that have made Dickens famous. The volume will appear in six semi-monthly num bers, each number complete in itself, at 50 cents a number. They will, be printed on tinted paper, in handsome style, anil will be delivered to subscri bers and others at tlie book stores or by agents. Agents are wanted in ih (every locality. [communicated.] WILL /riIEY RISE TO EXPLAIN t Mil .q-iDiTOß:—lnasmuch as the Lo cal tailors of the two daily papersLn this city, have crossed blades*and are waging a small war against each oth er, in which the political status of one of the individuals, is called in question, the undersigned “hopes lie don't intrudi*!'’'*but for the benefit of an anxious comnumi;y, lie would be pleased to have both gentlemen an swer tie* following questions : W here were tlie L g,.! editors of the Tele graph and the Enterprise born ? Did they take up ayrns during the “late little unpleasantness”? Under what flag did they do battle V A response to the above questions may be death to the frogs, but it will be fun for the boys, in this communi ty, and an early response from those interested, will gratify One Who Knows. By no means in sympathy with any one who would ostracise another on account of any difference in opinion we give place to the above communi cation, simply to gratify one who ap pears desirous of taking part in a dis graceful attack upon a man, without, as we think, just or sufficient cause. Impoverished and struggling in our ashes, the only hope for the salvation of this section is in the inducements we can hold out to emigrants to come and settle among us. To do this suc cessfully, we must make concessions and sacrifices] and, instead of repel ling those who seek homes among us, we should use every effort to make their stay mutually agreeable and profitable. Little matters it to us wliat may be the political faith of the honest, industrious stranger* who comes to assist us in building up our country. We care not under what flag he may have fought; so that he comes with the olive branch in his hand. Looking only to the great good of Georgia, we rise superior to the petty prejudices of bigoted minds and gladly welcome‘every man who comes among us with a view of per manently locating. We had hoped the days of persecution and proscrip tion were among the things of the past, and even now cherish a hope that this last thrust may be. the end of the death struggle of fanaticism in Georgia. Petrification of the Body. In Italy, it has been the study of a number of scientific men to preserve the human body forages, by meansof various processes. Certain mummi fying preparations give to the body the strange property of resuming all the appearaces of sleep, after it has remained some hours in the water and admits of the closest anatomical study of it. Other preparations give to the body the hardness of stone and enable it to resist humidity, the inclemency of the seasons, and the combined ac tion of heat and cold. It is well known that the remains of Mazzini have been entrusted to one of these students, Professor Gorini, who has undertaken the complete petrifica tion of them within 8 months. This change in the substance of the human frame must not be considered analog ous to, much less identical with, the ancient Egyptian mode of preserving the body by embalming it. In that sys tem the cavity of the body was filled with myrrh, fragrant herbs and spices, while the body was tightly enveloped and swathed in folds of cere-cloth, lin ; en. and bark, so as to exclude the air; and it was then put. into a case which was hermetically closed. It will thus be se£n that the preservation of the body by tannin, and by preventing the action of. the atmosphere, was the leading idea. But although the body was*, in some sense of the word, 1 preserved by this method fpr thous ; ands bf years, the result of the system ’ was the converting it into a shriveled, blackened or discolored form; revolt i ing to the sight, Hind ? having the ap pearance of a monky rather than that !of a human being. The Italian meth | od, above noticed, converts human forms into a steture the features re maining precisely as they were when death took place. Had this system been resorted to by the Egyptians, out by the Greeks and Ro : mans, who borrowed their learning from them, the world might.at this day be able to gaze on the life-like corpses of the men of history who have so influ enced its destinies. But the preserva tion of the body from decay, for the purpose of exhibiting it from, age to age to the gaze of the curious is repug- I hant to the opinions and feelings of tost of the civilized world; though it possible that scientific anatomists, te Professor Gorinijbecome so habit* j uuted to the contemplation of death | in, all its forms as to lose their sensi ; bility to its most repellant features. The Peacemaker aft Richmond. There was no small amount of he roism in the act ot Horace Greeley in signing the bail bofad of ex-President Davis, at the time,-and Tinder the cir cumstances, in which it was done. So great was the prejudice at the North against the fallen chief that it re quired a bold heart to declare sym pathy for his fate, and there was but one public man in the Union party of the North heroic enough to step for ward and condemn its cruel policy.— That man was Horace Greeley. But there was a Northern poet* brave enough to appreciate and to honor the noble sentiment which inspired the act, alnd he has perpetuated it in the following appropriate .lines: At Rocket’s pier the bugles blow, The cluttering horsemen ride, And squadrons wheel with naked steel JJv Jaihes’ peaceful tide, And up the steeps of Richmond tower The column flies at will, As if a traitor rode to die. Up Tower or Tyburn hili. A poor did man, grey haired and bent, Amongst the troopers rides; He sees the captured Capitol O’erlooking floods and tides, Where in his powerthe standards blew, Unfurled at his command. That waved in sight of Washington, And dyed the Rio Grande. Now silently tlie people peer. Who used to hear his name, As if it were a time of fear, And his were all the blame; They soon forgot both fame and power, Who but disaster win, And lie who ruled, an empires chief, Must make his jail an inn. They bring him to the traitor’s court This old and broken man: And e’en the judge looks down in grudge, Like any partisan. The lawyers wait to tell his crimes, The Jury hate, forewarned,— Of.heaven! it is a fearful thing To see a strongman scorned. Then one stepped out from all the throng, And said: “This must not be V My pen, which wrote his cause unjust, Shall write his liberty.” On yonder hill the grata is green Witli pleasant spring's Increase, So green be all the fields of war, And all our duty, Peace. “Ye dare not test him lest he ’scape; Ye shall not keep him pent; Each foe stands now a citizem ; >.«•<cK rui ervarj i-din; 7 Let: kindly law again prevail, And victory do mo crime, N For hand in hand we twain must walk Down all the paths of time!” They marvelled much who loved him not This quaint old man to see, Whose name the plan f er’s children knew An ancient enemy; And though some'mocked his loving zeal, With many a coarse retort, lie made the rebel chieftain feel The North had still a heart! Lay Aside Your Long Faqes. Emerson says ; “Do not hang a dis mal picture on your wall, and do not deal with sables and glooms in your conversation.“ Beecher follows with: ‘Awai with these fellows Who go howl ing tllrough life ; all the while passing for birds of paradise. He that can not laugh and be gay should look Avell to himself. He should fast and pray until his face breaks forth into light,” Talmage then takes up the strain: '‘‘Some people have* an idea that they comfort the afflicted when they groan over them. Don’t drive a hearse th rough a man’s soul.” When you bind up a broken bone of the soul, and you want splints, do not make them of cast iron.” After such counselings and admonitions lay aside your long faces.

He had gone into the stream to bathe, but got beyond his depth and sunk before he could be rescued. » Another warning to widows o'er anx ious to wed is furnished by the sad fate of Mrs Rachel Murphy of Coweta county, who was wooed and won in the short space l of two weeks by one James Coker who lived with her ten days and then, after getting posses sion of all! her goods and chattels val ued at $l5O, basely deserted her in At lanta leaving her and her child with out a cent, , The Americus Republican says: “Having just returned from a trip through a large portion of Southwest Georgia, We are gratified to state that the corn and cotton crop are particu larly promising. We conversed with a number pt intelligent and trustwor thy planters from various sections, who gave the most flattering account of the growing crops. The general impression is that they have not had for the last ten Or fifteen years at this date, anything like so promising a crop. We also learn from similar sources that there has been at least a third more corn planted in some sections that formerly. The Newnan Herald in speaking of the S. G. &N. A. Railroad, says: At the recent meeting of the Board of Directors of this Railroad Company itjwas resolved to complete the road from this iiity to Bowenville, a few miles west of the Chattahoochee, and cease all grading beyond the latter point. Os course the road will not terminate at Bowenville, but it was thought the part of wisdom for the present to concentrate the capital and energies of the company on only a portion of the line. The Chronicle <& Sentinel says: It was reported on the streets yesterday that Winchester Rifle Scott had en gaged his passage on the Inman Line iot Europe, saying that since Gree ley’s nomination he saw no longer hope of maintaining the Winchester Rifle as the best law. Os course the Treasury of South Carolina has been swept and garnered. Liberty county is so dry that many farmers have been obliged to water their cattle from wells. Some fears of rust taking the early cotton is annoying a good many of our farmers. There was never a bet ter prospect for an early as well as a large crop than was presented ten days ago, but the frequent rains and cold nights ocuring since, has some what changed affairs.

Bdutwell has returned from North Carolina. He says the leading men promise 10,000 —possibly 15,000 —ma- jority in that State. [For whom ?1 It was stated in last night’s dis patches that information had reached Washington that the conference which was held in Philadelphia on Tuesday to heal the disaffection in the B ipublican party had failed. In addition to this result some of the de tails [have been learned which show that President Grant appeared in be half of his own administration, sec onded by three members of the Cabi net, one or two Senators, an ex-Sena tor, and othejrs, whose names cannot be obtained for publication. It ap peared early in the conference that Colonel Forney and those who acted with him would not cease opposition to the present State ticket just so long as a portion of it was composed of men obnoxious to the honest Repub licans. July 22. —A careful Washington spe cial telegraphs that the President ex pects to return to Washington this week to hold a brief communication prior to his trip to Niagara Falls and down the St Lawrence. After that he will not be in the city again for quite a month.
