From a telegram In llio Atlanta Ounuli
tiun, we learn that two deaths linve recent
ly occurred at the Mate University. Mr.
Clutrlea Atkinson, a graduate of the Uni
versity, and Assistant Professor of En
glish literature, died on Wednesday. He
was a young nmn of rare talents and at
the Unit of ills death held a highly boms
cable position for one of hia yours. Wo
knew him well and can truly say that we
have aever known one more universally
estaomed, or who mors richly deserved ad
miration. It is sad to see a man just be
ginning to reach the grand aims .if life,
and with a splendid future just rising into
view before him, suddenly cut off from u
career which promised usefulness and
fame. Mr. Atkinson had many acquaint
ances in this vicinity who will lie pained to
hear of his sad decease. The mime tele
gram that announced this death also sta
ted that Mr. James P. Dorsey died the
same day.

Patrick Lawlor, an innocent ItxAing son
of Erin, was arraingM for a little disor
derly action on the previous night.
Paddy said he was from Baltimore, bound
for Mobile. Feeling a little weary, he had
taken only two “straights.” The dose
proved more potent than was expected,
anti soon “Reason fled from her royal
throne.” Patrick was drunk but he only
said a few bad words anti did nothing
more. The Mayor told him that he would
let him go fret; but advised him to leave
these parts immediately, “iest ho fall
again in tho way of temptation,” and fall.
Patrick said ho would go, and wo were
truly glad to sot; him get off so nicely, for
his honest, gtxxl humored face, complete

stealing ornaments from the grave-yard.

for Sarah, until a little, girl about ton
years old was brought into Court, and
formally confessed that she took the orna
ments from a grave. The child’s manner
iwissessed an air of frankness and inno
cence, and Miss Kelton gracefully retreat
ed from the room with a smile upon her
face.

Appeal to ( ommlkilontr* Ku*rl! County.
There is no mistaking ttie fact of tho
obligation on the |iurt of the Russell
County Commissioners to hoed the appeals
of tiie citizens of the county, to havo re
built and repaired the bridges which have
lieen washed away by freshets and other
wise going to decay. The citizens ore
anxious and willing to bo taxed for this
purpose, notwithstanding the present in
debtedness of thecounty. There are hun
dreds, if not thousands, of laborers, white
and black, who would bo glad to he
eugagod in this good work, for a small
compensation, and even something to eat.
Mechanics and laborers could soon get. >ut
and frame the neeossory material for
building and repairs at almost nominal
cost to the county, and without, burdening
the jteopie with additional taxation. Ave
nues to market must lie kept open for the
convenience of planters, the hauling of
wood and travel; else, now can they get
to and from market with their produce
amt home supplies t
The re-buildmg of tho bridge over Mar
shall ercek, InOlrard, is a public necessity
not alone to the citizens of Girard, hut to
tho people of the countv. There is scarce
ly any soason of the year, more especially
in time of freshets, hut what one of the
bridges over the Chattahoochee is under
going roiHiirs for a week or ten days, there
by cutting off all communication witli
trade to the city, and making it n serious
lose and great inconvenience to all parties
interested. 1 would not award the con
tract to anyone man,to make large profits
out of the contract, hutomploy some suit
able mechanic to overlook the construction
at so much tier day. In this wise you can
(mild ehoaimr, and by employing laborers,
either white or colored, or both, to get out
tho timbers, you will help the distressed
through employment, and relieve a public
and private mvesslty. I would suggest
further, as a reiiof to the tax payers, that
tho Commissioners, issue eountv scrip,
running from one to throe years redeem
able for county taxes, and in this wise,
make the tax light and easily to be borne. I
One of tho chief reasons for the prescut
large indebtedness of the county, has been I
(as I am Informed) from want ot an ener
getic Tax Collector. But friend Martin is j
conceded to be the right man in the right ■
place, and the people feel that under his
energetic mi ministration a larger amount
of taxes will be raised than ever before, j
The Commissioners have power to levy an
extra tax for county bridging and repairs. I
Now, let them estimate what amount will \
ho required without delaying longer over i
this matter, and friend Martin will hike
pleasure in raising it from the people, l iie 1
demand and necessity for bridges and re- j
pairs has hem presented to you, gentle-!
men of Couuty Commissioners, and let me i
urge you “to acquit yourselves like men,"
amt receive therefor the thanks and plau
dits of the people.

A WOMAN’S TAI.K ABOUT HOYS
A\ 1> HACK EI.ORS,
number four.
So M. E. says Old Maid is not a woman?
It is very rash of 51. E. to suy so. Old
Maid has bad many ups and downs in life,
has been in e<x , iety and out of it, met every
shape of man or woman that the present
age can furnish, has hud many censures
upon tho rather austere life that she
loads, has often suffered from having been
misunderstood; but she never yet suffered
anything so cruel as to l>o unsexed. She
can stand M. E.’s taunts on the necessity
of hor single st ito; she can endure to lx*
called passes; she can tolerate the neglect
and indifference felt and shown to ladies
who reach twenty-live unmarried; yes,
she can boar all the abuse gratuitously
donated to old maids; but to be called a
boy is quite too much. She never was a
boy in her life. Bhe cannot conceive what
offence she could have committed against
M. E. to provoke that lady to call her a
boy. Asa littlo girl she would not ©von
play with boys; as a young lady she con
| siderod lx)ys her bete noir; as a mature
■ woman sho pronounces boys the most ln
! sufferable of all necessary social nulsan
c*;s. She would go back to the grave of
her maternal grandparent and weep bit
terly, if she had to bo born again and **
born a boy.
Boys become young men—in a surpris
| ingly short time too; young men become
i young bachelors; young bachelors grow
•to lx* old bachelors; and old bachelors
j grow —; no they don’t grow’ to is* any
j thing. They were never known to become
! anything. Their glory is reached when
j they become priests of celibacy. They can
only be cross aud crabbed, and lonely ami
: unhappy, and vent theLr block bile in mis-
I erabie flings at us ok! maids. We nevor !
J could understand why tlmy hate us so. j
■ We are really tin* lx?st friomls they have
in the world. They are buffetol and scorn- j
!ed by all the world except ourselves. The j
world is always troubling them. They
! have few sources of pleasure, and th<*se ’
few sources arc fast drying up. Even the
Government has gone to work to make life I
Intolerable to an old bachelor. It taxed
his comforts until they ore no longer com
forts. It taxed his tobacco, and he no lon-
I ger smokes his pipe In peace; it taxed his
! whiskey, and his bottle lies empty on the
[shelf; it taxed his dog, and the solitaire
j sits mournfully by his unswept hearth,
| with only a small, lean kitten, that is too
j diminutive and unvigilant to guard his
! scanty wardrobe from the ravages of the
rots; and now it lias taxed his state of cc
libacy itself, a crowning infamy! and
the poor, lone man is too unhappy
and too desolate to live. When his tobao
! co was taxed he Haid it was a shame, but
he would give up the we<xl; when his
whiskey was taxed in; thought it was a
| curse anyhow and joined a temperance
society; when his dog was taxed he broke
. out in the language of Mark Twain and
| said, ‘‘this thing is getting monotonous;”
; but now when his celibacy is taxed—like
j the well known apple-cart driver, who
found on reaching tin* top of a hill that
the apples had all rolled out except one
: which was fulling as he turned round ho
would say a little something but he cannot
|do justice to the subject. Truly taxation
iis grievous. Tho old maids throughout
tho country will hold indignation mootings
ami order resolutions of sympathy jmssed
and forward**! to each old bachelor in the
Btate of Georgia. Further, they will em
ploy tho 1)08 1 artists in tho land to provide
sketches to illustrate tho life and charac
j ter of every member of both houses of the
present Legislature. The sketches will
appear in The Graphic and other illustra
sembly may bo held up to the scrutiny
and censure of the civilized world. The
Governor, too, because he did not veto this
infamous bill, shall hang in effigy, and
have such a shame branded upon his
name that the whole family of Bmitius will
go down with Ichubod, “thy glory has de
part'd” written over the House to tho
latest posterity. The bill itself shall
bo snatched from tho archives of the State,
and trumpet'd t the winds that It may
go sounding down through ages, ana
themutlzed as a crowning legislative in
famy. The dead shall hear it and there
will be a wail among the pale nations of
the grave. Homer will listen t) the
tale of wrong, and weep because he did
not have this instead of the wrath of
Achilles as the subject of his Iliad; De
mosthenes will run to the l>oundaries of
Hailes and try h> leap across t> the shores
of time to stand up and deliver another
philippic; Cicero will tell the Roman Sen
ators that if he had lived to read this bill
he could have made an invective that
would have shaken the globe itself and
sent his tame to the fartherest star; and
.all the fathers of the Grand Republic and
of the Empire State will meet, in ghostly
conclave to reprimand a Governor and a
legislative body who have brought such
a stain upon the National escutcheon.
