Styles and Ru spell, of the Cen tral City, have at last “hitched.” How vivid was the “attempt to slsp my face,” and how vigorous “the best defence in my power,” we must leave to the im agination. We publlisli all that the “City” says about it; . Albany, Ga„ August 52, 1874. j t believe it my duty to tae citizens of this city and the readers of the Albany Central City to 6tate that on yesterday evening a violent attack was made upon me. accompanied witn all manuer of abuse, by the editor of the Albany News. Ho made threats to take my life, if I published certain articles, relative to him and charges -he had undo against me. He made an face, when I made the best de fence in my power. I have not sought a difficulty with the editor of the News, but have always studiously avoided it, and will continue to do so'. The attack was altogether unprovoked. I hereby notify the editor of the News and all other persons that I shall always discharge my editorial duties as I believe to be right, regardless of threats or attempts at intimidation of any character. I ma y lose my life in the endeavor to carry out this resolve; I shall do it nevertheless. Should any serious consequences result from law essness on the part of the editor of the News, the responsibility will be upon him alone. I make this statement in vindication of myself. “My rights are few, I shall maintain them; my per son is sacred, it shall not be violated; my dnty is plain, I will discharge it.” ▲. M. 0. Bussell.

The Begister publishes the following concerning an Atlanta boy. Who is he? Ou Sunday last a little incident occcurred at the Sa lem Methodist Camp Meeting, which convulsed every witness with laughter. A dandyish specimen of Young Amorica, said to hail from Atlanta, was sitting on tho edge of the worship ping crowd,entertaining his sweetheart,when a buxom lady, evidently from the country, attempted to pr.Bs him. Onr Atlanta friend coucluded that this was a fiue opportunity for a display of wit, and called out after the ladj : “Good bye, if you call that gone.!;” The effect of Atlanta wit is magical. It was so in this case. The lady paused in her rapid career, glar ed at the young dandy for a moment, and then swooped down upon him like a hawk. She took that young man by the collar and shook him. She grabbed that gentleman from Atlanta, and nabbed him. And the way she worried him, And the way rhe flurried him, And the way she went for him, Wasn’t worth a cent to him! And then she administered a dUnified rebuke. “You impudent little rascal,” said she, “I’ll teach you how to speak to women l ” Then Bhe left him, and the young man took a seat on the grass and told his eweetheartithat he admJredL. the vivacity of these conutry lAdtes. ) fi iHjftM ' 1 aftEENSBOHO HF.r.Ai^ atrTcwerd Mtjuifi*’ itmtuenVe wasjdestroyed by fire.

This horrid little paper still keeps up th’e lick on Samuel Bard. It wakes him up mercilessly in its last issue. LUMPKIN INDEPENDENT. The Independent says the problem of the hour down there is “something to eat.” Bacon and lard have ballooned out ci sight, garden “truck” ard po tatoes have been ruined by the drouth, and digging for ground hogs seems the only resource. The editor of the Independent proposes to m*ke up a party for that purpose. On Friday eight last Col. E. T. Beall’s plantation was visited by one of the heaviest storms ever wit nessed in that section of tho country. The mule shelter was blovn down, killing two choice mulos and crippling two others, one of them will nit recover. The fences were ail blown down and the fodder re cently pulled scattered to the four winds. Mr. Joe Griffin, living on the place, says he never experienced anything so fearful before in his life, and for awhile thought the dwelling would be blown down upon the beads of himself and family. Two negroes liviDg on Colonel Sheperd’s plantation were drowned in the Chattahoochee river, near Flor ence, one day last week. '1 hey were attempting to raise a fish basket, when the bateau which they were in capsized and they, being unable to swim, were drowned. The bodies were recovered on Saturday. Both of them leave families. The drouth has well nigh doubled the length of the faces of cmr farmer frieads, and the universal cry is that it has affected the crop more disastrously than the cater pillar would have done. In some places where the cotton was manured It has shed nearly all its leaves, and the bolls are opening rapidly. AH prospects for a “top crop” have disappeared, and what will be made, will be made and gathered before half the winter is aver. The pea and potato crops have proved a’most failures, and altogether the prospects are very discouraging. HAMILTON VISITOR. Mr. Francis Roberts, living near Catania, lost an in daughter a few nights ago. She was attacked with cholera morbus, and died in a few hours. On the 15tb, Mr. Henry McCord and Miss Sallie Fow ler, of Meriwether county, drove into town.

It is said tbt the Grangers’ iJonveution, jnat ad journed in Augusta, will establish a bank there with $1,0#9,000 capital. SRTFFIjr MESSENGER. The Messenger deuies the report of a negro couspir cy, an published in the News a few and aye since, and ys the Grsiiu agro> are neaceablo aud inoffensive. There appears to be no doubt of the religi ous persecution going on in the Turkish Em pire. The ltev. Jas. Davis, Secretary of tho British Evangelical Alliance, is informed that thiee Assairyeh converts in Christianity, who had been living peaceful and blameless lives as Uachers in a Christian mission school in Snia, were, in Septembor last, suddenly Bei*ed, put in chains, and, after being denied food and drink, marched to Jebili, and thence to Damascus, where they were thrown into prison, and otherwise cruelly treated—the only reason assigned being that they were renegades from the Mussel man faith, a return to which Would insure them liberty and kind treatment. No crime or offence whatever against tho law has been brought against them, nnd on their refusal to abjure the Chris tian faitk, they have been enrolled in the Turkish army, and refused tho exercise of Christian worship. The Grand Vizier con sented to give orders for the removal of these Christian converts to Constantinople, hut this promise, as well as the others, has cot been fulfilled.

WHAT GOOD HEALTH, SYSTEM AND A WjLLING BEABT CAN ACCOMPLISH—A MODEL FOR HODSEWIAES. [“Ruth’s” letter toN. Y. Journal ol Commeroe.] Looking out of the window the other morn ing X saw a woman drive to the gate, with a trim little establishment in excellent order. I had never set eyes upon her before, I was sure of that, though she looked np at the window with a bright and cherry smile as though she had known me all my days. Springing out of the high wagon like a girl of sixteen, though she was evidently three times that age, she hitched her horse and blanketed it as though she were used to it, and was then. ushered into the parlor. She had come to in- ’ quire about some lots upon our farm, and L assure jou she talked business, it evidently; being no new thing to her. I found she was' from a neighboring town, five miles distant, where her husband is a prosgyrons ~.rchiteclt and ,milder. After'she had obtained' the in formation for which she came, we fell into a •onvers.tiou such as our sex will indulaq.iu, "Have you much of a.family ?” ,1 inquired. “Eleven children,” tsbe replied, X opened my.ejca • exuectins to hear the usual answer these days, “Three, two boys and a girl,” or vice versa, “Have you never lost any children?" said I. “None,” she replied, “and none are married; they are till living at home.’' “What a 'family to look alter!" I exclaimed. ~. t “On, I shouldn’t mind our ora family : at all, but we have always boarded three pr four car penters necessary iu my husband?! business! Then we have a farm, and a good many cows to see to and butter to make, and as my hus band is always busy iu other ways, the over sight ol the farm devolves mostly on ire.” “I hope you are more fortunate thrfh thii rest of us in having good domestics to help! you with all this work,” said I. The good' woman straightened herself up and gave decisive reply. “X never.kaep any,” she said; “They never suit me.” “Your children must help you a good deal, then.” “Yes. but they have their lessons to learn. Their eldest sis ter, who has as good an education as mncy could give her, teaches them entirely at home. We have a room in our house fitted up espe cially for that purpose. They’ are mere thoroughly taught by her, with the deep in terest she leels in them, than if they went to school elsewhere; and being able to recite their lessens in the early part of the day, they spend fewer hours over books, which is bet ter for their health, and this enables them to give me more assistance than they could otherwise do.” What a sensible woman, thought I, for you know what a favorite idea homo education is with mo, wheu it is at all practicable. So I drew my chair up closer 0 her, and said, “You don't do your own sewing do ycu?” “Never sent out a stitch in my life, dresses or anythisg else, even when we had not a sewing machine.” “Do you make your husband's and your boy’s shirts?” I asked. “Every one of them. My e’dest son is something of a dandy, as youug men will be. and he bought some shirts a while ago. Oh, such a fit as they were. I spent more time ripping and fixing them than would have cut and made a good half-doz en.” “Do you ever have time to go outside your house ?” I inquired. “Oh, yes,” she*replied|wi.h a smile; “I am here this morning, you see, to inquire abouti the land, and day before yesterday I went \jk the State fair with some butter, and premium.” “You must sit up very late nights,” “Oh, no, not very; we alwaye our work by eight o'clock bomethiagspcci.il is going on, ijH a musical family.
